Christmas Seaman: Omoi o Tsutaeru Mou Hitotsu no Houhou (クリスマスシーマン〜想いを伝えるもうひとつの方法〜) was a messaging service, based on Seaman: Kindan no Pet. It was released exclusively in Japan and was only available between 16 and 24 December 1999^[4].

Christmas Seaman comprises of two discs; a "message disc" and a "present disc". Users would use the message disc to speak to Seaman; this would be interpreted as a sixteen-digit code and stored online. Users of the present disc could then insert this code to hear the message; a means of communicating over the internet. Unlike other forms of communication, the message would be interpreted and altered by Seaman, and the sender would not know exactly what the result would be.

This service was only temporary, and its reliance on a now-deceased server means Christmas Seaman is no longer functional.
