The Twelve Days Of Christmas

Surely you have heard this silly song about birds and drummers and dancers and milkmaids right? Well, its lyrics have more meaning than that.

It can sound stupid at a start, but each one of the gifts named on the song is an element from the catholic faith.

It’s the times of the reign of Queen Elizabeth I in England, days in which the catholics are persecuted. To keep practicing their beliefs and to keep celebrating Christmas in their own way, catholics made this undercover song that talks about the traditional 12 days that follow Christmas.

The True Love mentioned in the song is nothing more than Our Holy God that give us some valuable elements as a gift to humanity.

Well, as Christmas has finally arrived and I practically finished my Advent Calendar, I'm going to focus my next drawings on this traditional British Carol.

"On the Twelve Days of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

a Partridge in a Pear Tree."

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life." John 3:16

The partridge in the song is an allegory to Christ on the Cross. The Tree of Wisdom from which Adam and Eve ate the Forbidden Fruit of the Eden is often related to an apple tree. Therefore, some people believe that the pear tree in the song refers a tree contradictory to the other one (instead of an apple tree is a pear tree), which its fruits give redemption.

"Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

Matthew 1,18-24

Nine days before a Catholic memorial, Saint, Feast or Solemnity, it's a costume to say a prayer each day to get prepared for it. In México, the Christmas Ninth, more known as "Posadas" ("Inn" in English) is accompanied with a fun dynamic, of the people gathered there divided in two groups. One half represents the Holy Family asking for shelter, the other half represents the town's people that won't let them in...

If only this representation would stay at such, and in the times when the story of the Nativity happened, two thousand years ago. Sadly, it still happens in our times and society, that Christ Himself is rejected in the flesh of defenseless people that are denied safety, shelter, food, clothing, even dignity and the right to live.

"Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me." Matthew 25: 40.

Around the Christmas times in México, along with the Posadas, there's a genre of plays that are represented, named "Pastorelas" (Shepherdies?) where the Nativity Story is told in the perspective of the shepherds that travel to Bethlehem, after being announced about Jesus' birth by the Angels. Being told as a Mexican comedy, the shepherds have to face the devil's temptations in order to reach their destination, a hard task that is fulfilled by the help of God's Angels and Grace.

This is one of my O.Cs, named Paco, and he's from a Christmas story I invented when I was eight. He tries all Advent along to change his ways and become a better person, through his strength of will. He'll discover some time later, that the strength of will is given.

"The Lady of Heaven ordered him then to go to the top of the little hill, where he had seen her before:

She said to him: go up, the smallest of my children, to the top of the hill, where you saw me and I gave you orders, you will find that are different flowers there: cut them out, gather them out, pick them up; Go down and bring them to my presence quickly."

In México, the piñata was originally for Posadas. If you ever broke one, you'll remember how when the candies fall, some children throw themselves to the front and get as much candy as they can, leaving some kids with none. But then there's the other children, who spend the next moment searching for those who didn't get candies, so they can offer them from theirs. It's a very tender gesture, and a great symbolism of how prosperity reaches everyone without leaving anyone behind.

I made a tribute to three of the most memorable Christmas stories I've known. Can you recognize the story each element is from? What's your favorite Christmas classic?

Innocence isn't the equivalent of naivety. It's the capacity to being exposed to the evil of the world, to know it by first hand and yet, remain uncorrupt to its effect.

Sekai ni Todoke | Reach the World - A "Belle" FMV Tribute

A Chizu Studios and Toho Company's movie "Ryū to Sobakasu no Hime | The Dragon and the Freckled Princess." or "Belle" fan music video tribute, with Sony Animation Studios and Netflix's movie "KPop Demon Hunters." song "What it Sounds Like." original English lyrics written by Jenna Andrews, Stephen Kirk and Mark Sonnenblick and Japanese dub performed by Ikuko Tsutsumi, MARU and Manami Yokoyama. Dub transcription, transliteration and translation by @usagi-release 

Well, I still got some KPDH crossovers in mind, being this one of them. The climax of the movie, especially when the audience starts singing and igniting their souls, reminded me a lot about the part in Belle, when Suzu is singing and her sorrow manifests in the form of a light. I then realized how both movies are very similar, with some diferences, of course. Suzu is always scared to show her voice, mostly related to the trauma of losing her mother, as Rumi at some point can't sing due to her hiding her dark side. Both Suzu and Rumi become pop stars, and they pretend something they're not. Out of necessity, Rumi opens up to Jinu and decides to set him free, and Suzu reveals her true, vulnerable self, in order to help "The Beast" 

I love both movies, and Belle keeps having a special place in my heart.

"Score Suite/Hunter's Mantra." A B/L! FMV Tribute

A Gaulmont and Lionsgate's movie "Ballerina/Leap!" fan music video tribute, with Sony Animation Studio and Netflix's movie "KPop Demon Hunters." soundtrack "Score Suite/Hunter's Mantra." written by EJAE, Daniel Rojas and Mark Sonnenblick, music composed by Marcelo Zarvos, and song performed by Lea Salonga. 

This scene in the KPDH had on me the same effect as the Opera Garnier scene in B/L! I was renuent with both movies at a start. I remember watching the B/L! trailer and then the movie in the theaters, a little sceptic with all the goofy moments, until in both the trailer and the movie the Opera scene came in. 

I remember not giving any grain of faith to KPDH because the plot seemed weird and, of course, the demon theme is a bit for me to handle as a Catholic. But I came across a short of the first generation of hunters scene, and as I love any representation of traditional cultures around the world, the scene touched me deeply, to the point of tears. 

Both scenes in both movies feel so eerie, magical and beautiful that they made me give them a chance, and I don't regret making those decisions. I wanted to explore the theme of art in this video. How art can turn to be an element of expression that allow us to connect with others. A legacy we can carry and pass on to the next generations. 

Here are, as the KPDH movie, three in each dancing generation: Rosita, Odette and Félicie's Mother, who pass the torch to the main finalists of the movie: Félicie, Camille and Nora.

"What it Sounds Like" A B/L! FMV Tribute

A "Ballerina/Leap!" fan music video tribute, with Sony Animation Studios and Netflix's movie "KPop Demon Hunters." song "What it Sounds Like." written by Jenna Andrews, Stephen Kirk and Mark Sonnenblick and performed by EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI.

At last, "What it Sounds Like"! This is the song that competes with "Golden" as my favorite KPDH song. It speaks to me so personally.

Mixed with Ballerina/Leap! it talks about the common issue we have of fearing to be seen as we really are, scared that we won't be accepted. And I'm not talking about things that we should allow to express freely. What I'm talking about, addressing the theme of the KPDH movie, is that we need to be accepted as a whole: with our bad sides and good sides. Admit the bad things we have to work on, and recognize the good things that we must practice more often. And, let ourselves be seen as we are, let ourselves reach for help and be touched to be healed.

Félicie's redemption arc consists in this. Along with Odette and Camille, she needs to uncover her true self, including her flaws, so her dancing can be more genuine and believable. As she accepts herself, she achieves the impossible.

"Takedown" A "Ballerina/Leap!" FMV Tribute

A "Ballerina/Leap!" fan music video tribute, with Sony Animation Studios and Netflix's movie "KPop Demon Hunters." song "Takedown." written by Lindgren and performed by EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI. 

I was hesitant if to make "Takedown" with "Ballerina/Leap!" because, even if it's a bop it's a very agressive song. I get why Rumi didn't like it, and not only for the fact that she was in conflict with her identity as half hunter half demon, but definitely because that's no way to defeat evil. However, I found the narration of the song to interestingly fit the situation between Félicie and Camille. It's often when we feel hatred for other person, that we start villainizing them and seeing them as creatures with no soul. Félicie and Camille both see each other's flaws and filthyness without realizing the real person behind those. And it's also interesting, since I added Régine on Mira's parts of the song, how it's an issue that began with her and expands towards Odette, who she really never really did nothing to her. A pair of rivalries that determine the fate of them four.
