It's the most wonderful time of the year! The nights are getting longer, the air is getting colder and anime girls are instinctively putting on santa suits. Christmas is coming! Why spend the holidays with your normie family when you could give gifts to fellow otaku? Send gifts to your anime friends through the Vegeta Secret Santa! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMXF6PE1Ng8 Schedule Signups begin as soon as the thread is posted. Signups end on Thursday, November 26, American Thanksgiving, as soon as turkey is served at my house, so around noon EST. You will get your assignments after football ends, so around 11pm-12am EST. You will have two weeks to get presents out. Your presents should be sent out by December 10th. Why is this? Because it takes a long time for things to arrive, especially to and from Australia if shipped internationally. If you have not received a gift by January 15th, contact me and I will make things happen. The Rules
Signing up Here's how it works. If you want to sign up, you should post in this thread. Make sure you read this carefully because if you don't you might not get a gift, or worse, you might get probated. That post should include:
YOU MUST DO BOTH. IF YOU DO ONE AND NOT THE OTHER YOU WILL NOT GET A GIFT! So call in that KFC, take that cake out the oven and get ready for Christmas Japan style! Merry Christmas! Remember to be like this guy: Smoking Crow fucked around with this message at 01:57 on Oct 26, 2015 |

who eats on Thanksgiving at noon well DESPITE my misgivings A. Parallax B. only domestically C. this and other chat threads D. FLCL, Nichijou and most KyoAni shows, Gundam, Non Non Biyori, Patlabor, Sentai shows E. Figures are cool, books are cool, food is cool. DVDs probably aren't the best because I own so many of them already, unless it's something weird or obscure. F. Video games, foreign films and film in general, writing, dogs!!!! G. I am average sized, so medium works for about anything. Not allergic to anything. USA USA USA Parallax fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Nov 17, 2015 |

Your forums name: everythingWasBees Whether you want to ship international: USA, A link to a thread in Vegeta where you are an active contributor: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3730147 What are your favorite series?: Humanity has Declined, Guilty Gear, Pokemon, Digimon, Giant Robo, Gunbuster/Diebuster, Gundam, Monster Musume and pretty much anything with Monster Girls, Amagi, *gatari. I really really like shoujo series too! What things do you want to receive? What don't you want to receive?: Games are cool, weird model kits are cool, tools are wonderful. I got really into minis recently but own all of four, and not that many paints, so that'd make a cool gift too. Books, especially art books, are a lot of fun, but the first volume of a manga is usually not ideal since I'll finish it in like half an hour and not be able to buy the rest. Snacks, candies, hot sauces, all good. Cute little figures to decorate my desk are always good too. Please please please nothing drug-related that isn't booze. No wallscrolls either. 18+ goods and booze are fine though, even encouraged. I have over tens of thousands of posts on this site so if you want to do some internet detecting to find out what I like your results would probably be pretty fruitful. Or you could always ask a friend. I also have a very happy little brother who's almost three now, so if you want to send something for him that'd work too! Other non-anime/manga/toku things you're interested in: Robots, Insects, Game Development, Arcade Games (Fighting games and shmups), Food, Miniatures Other things you think are necessary: I wear a Men's L. Hat size is usually XL, or larger. I don't like coconut or pepper extract. No allergies. everythingWasBees fucked around with this message at 19:38 on Nov 25, 2015 |

boom boom boom in the USA, willing to ship within the US. Honestly, within Texas is preferable. If there's someone I can just bicycle to and leave their present on their doorstep, do that http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3748330 Favorite Series - Gundam, Girls und Panzer, Yowamushi Pedal, Monster Musume, Bakemonogatari, VOTOMS Things I'm Ok for receiving - I'm up for pretty much anything. Toys, models, books, blurays, 18+, whatever. Just not the first volume of a long running manga, or anything digital. Non anime interests - Bicycling, American comics, sci-fi, I'm interested in getting into tabletop miniature war gaming, so some sort of miniatures thing would be appreciated Shirt size is Large, American region bluray/DVD/VHS, etc. boom boom boom fucked around with this message at 18:29 on Nov 25, 2015 |

Hi! 1. KNORTH 2. AUSTRALIA, but I'm willing to ship INTERNATIONALLY 3. Chat Thread! 4. Hmm, I really like SHAFT's shows, KyoAni's shows, Yozakura Quartet, Seitokai Yakuindomo, Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli stuff, Mushishi and Harvest Moon! 5. Umm, so I'd be happy with pretty much anything; manga/doujinshi, a dvd, a cd/vinyl, art (I don't really think much of promotional stuff but if it's good art, I'm open to it ), cute figures or plush toys, interesting snacks or food, something homemade, books or clothes and accessories (like with art, straight-up branded stuff probably isn't going to get used but if it's cool, go for it!). I only have a DS so games are kind of out, don't have anything that can play blu-rays either. Also open to 18+ stuff, I guess, although really not fan of violence or gore (unless there's something else really remarkable about it), alcohol is fine though! 6. I like cute plants and animals(all of them are cute btw)! I read a bit (mostly classic lit. but trying to get more history/non-fiction) and I love independent, different and interesting music! Also pretty into foreign and/or old films! I enjoy eating traditional/local food, snacks or drinks that I can't get here too! 7. Allergic to shellfish and my clothing size is whatever the equivalent of XS is Thank you Knorth fucked around with this message at 03:15 on Oct 26, 2015 |

E. Figures, model kits, bd/dvds, books, music, clothes, food, whatever! The only real caveats are long-running manga (i've already started collecting the ones i want) and if you send anything 18+...i'm not going to get any mileage out of ladies/baps/etc, so show me the dudes. i'm sure, like others, my post history spells out some things i'd like or have been into recently. F. i like reading (usually genre) fiction, baking, hanging with animals (dogs specifically ), video games (j/rpgs, some action games, platformers, the occasional shmup), and watching films G.

Special Duty Combat Unit Shinesman, Gatchaman CROWDS, Ouran High School Host Club, Nichijou and Case Closed are my top 5. I watch a ton, and read more than a few manga, but I can't list them all. Last season I watched Gatchaman, and this season I'm catching up on Durarara. E. Nothing 18+. I'd rather get figma than DVDs/Blu-Ray. I'm a big proponent of digital over physical. F. I like wrestling, video games, I listen to an unhealthy amount of Young Adult Audiobooks, I have a Wii U and a PS3, and my brother has a PS4. I also have a 3DS and a Vita I don't use. I'm not much of a PC gamer, though with my new PC I'm doing it more (via streaming). I'm a superhero fanboy, but mostly for the non-big two superheroes. My favorite superhero series' are Empowered and Worm (ignoring Power Rangers/Shinesman). I also like Power Rangers. My favorite is Tommy because he's Tommy. My first text message tone was this. G. Shirt Size: XXL I'm not a fan of the Nasuverse, and generally avoid harem anime. I dig giant robots. Beyond that, no real preferences, beyond the fact that I want absolutely nothing -monogatari.

I'm not keen on poseable figures and any non-posable figure I'd want would be way too expensive, unless you're a rich goon. I love subtly nerdy T-shirts or polo shirts. Liquor is more than OK, 18+ is not OK. No Kancolle, please. Just not big on it. F: I love to cook, and I LOVE getting interesting regional food specialities, spices, etc. Something that's only common to your area - a certain ingredient, a brand of stuff, etc., is always cool. Hot sauce is wonderful too, especially unconventional kinds that you don't find at the grocery store. Or snacks, baked goods, whatever. Interesting edibles is always a thing. I'm big on craft beer too, or cider, mead, wine, if there's a local winery or something. I'm into cyberpunk sci-fi, just no physical books - I have a Kindle for my commute. I also love building plastic aircraft and SF models, just no Revell/Monogram - they tend to suck compared to normal kits. I also play Android: Netrunner.
