I can't believe it's that time of year again. And my birthday is coming up, too. Aah! I'm getting old!
Like last year, I'll be doing some copying and pasting from my previous lists. Again, I'll be limiting it to 10 anime plus OCs.
Since I already got my Attack on Titan and Death Note wishes, I won't be asking for those.
The Manga and Anime
In no particular order...
Fullmetal Alchemist I'm just that predictable. I prefer the manga/Brotherhood continuity. If you didn't know by now, I'm a total Greed fangirl. I also like Alphonse. Heck, any of the characters would be fine, since I like almost all of them on some level.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica I watched the series, but not the movies. I'm not sure which girl is my favorite, so I guess Madoka herself is a safe bet. Really, I'd be fine with any of the magical girl characters.
Assassination Classroom I've completed the first season, but not the second. I haven't read the manga, either, though I have a feeling that it was adapted faithfully. Koro-sensei is my favorite character in the series.
Magi I've seen both seasons, but I haven't read the manga (yet). My favorite character is Alibaba, but all of the main characters are so likable that I'd be happy with one or more of them, too.
Cardcaptor Sakura I finished the whole anime, but have not read the manga. My favorite character is actually Kero. I like Sakura and Yukito, too. In fact, I remember that Yukito's birthday is on Christmas (like mine), so maybe you could do something with that.
Gurren Lagann Again, it's been some time since I've seen it, but my memories of it are vivid. I can't decide on a favorite, so any of the main characters will do.
Sailor Moon I've read the manga, seen all of Crystal, and I'm currently three seasons into the original anime. I don't care about spoilers, and the continuity is your choice. My favorite is Sailor Saturn, but any of the Guardians (I guess that's the official term now) is cool with me.
The Seven Deadly Sins I'm not up to date on the manga (thanks, Crunchyroll), and I haven't seen the anime (thanks, Netflix). The last part I remember from the manga is when (SPOILER ALERT!) They had that big tournament hosted by two of the revived demons. My favorite characters are Diane, Ban, and King (not necessarily in that order). From what I hear, Diane's birthday is supposed to be on December 24 (a day before mine). Also Ban x Elaine makes me melt with happiness.
Naruto/Naruto Shippuden I haven't watched it in some time; I kind of paused it right when they're gearing up for the war. I know the manga ended and the series is on its last legs, but the events that I have yet to see have been spoiled for me many times over. Anyway, I want some NaruHina goodness.
Inuyasha I STILL haven't finished this anime (I'm midway through the arc with the Band of Seven) and I haven't read the manga. I'm pretty sure I've been introduced to most (if not all) of the major players in the story, though. Shippou is still my favorite character, but I like the other main characters as well.
The Original Characters
I'm just linking pictures. You can find out about the characters in the picture descriptions. You can read the stories here. For additional information (and some silliness) click here. For other artists' interpretations, click here.
From Survival Instincts: [Naomi] [Marshall] [Dice] [All three]
From Destination: [Keba] [Jon] [Both of them] [Rakusa]
From The Rebels of Planet Aadau: [Meh-Eh-Au] [Conus] [Most of the cast]
If you want other pictures of my OCs, you can poke around my Portfolio, too. I just linked the ones that I thought were the best.
One final note: I don't actually celebrate Christmas. I'm just doing the SS because my birthday falls on Christmas. So please don't add anything religious.
Thanks in advance, S.S.! I'm excited to see what you come up with. ^_^
Well, it's about time that I post my wishlist. After all, I'm one of the people running the SS this year.
I'm going to be copying and pasting some of last year's list to this one. Like last year, I'm going to limit the options to 10 anime and manga (plus OCs).
I'll be eliminating AoT from the list because of this awesome pic from last year.
The Manga and Anime
In no particular order...
Fullmetal Alchemist I'm just that predictable. I prefer the manga/Brotherhood continuity. If you didn't know by now, I'm a total Greed fangirl. I also like Alphonse. Heck, any of the characters would be fine, since I like almost all of them on some level.
Death Note It's been some time since I've seen or read this one, but I still like it. L is my favorite.
Magi I've only seen the first series (Labyrinth) and I haven't read the manga (yet), but I'm enjoying it so far. My favorite character is Alibaba, but all of the main characters are so likable that I'd be happy with one or more of them, too.
Cardcaptor Sakura I finished the whole anime, but I don't know if the manga diverges from it. My favorite character is actually Kero. I like Sakura and Yukito, too. In fact, I remember that Yukito's birthday is on Chistmas (like mine), so maybe you could do something with that.
Gurren Lagann Again, it's been some time since I've seen it, but my memories of it are vivid. I can't decide on a favorite, so any of the main characters will do.
Sailor Moon I've been on a major kick with SM, lately. I've read the manga, seen all of Crystal, and I'm currently watching the original anime. I don't care about spoilers, and the continuity is your choice. My favorite is Sailor Saturn, but any of the Guardians (I guess that's the official term now) is cool with me.
The Seven Deadly Sins This is kind of my new obsession that I shouldn't like as much as I do. I'm up to date on the manga, but I haven't seen the anime (thanks, Netflix). My favorite characters are Diane, Ban, and King (not necessarily in that order). From what I hear, Diane's birthday is supposed to be on December 24 (a day before mine). Also Ban x Elaine makes me melt with happiness.
Naruto/Naruto Shippuden I haven't watched it in some time; I kind of paused it right when they're gearing up for the war. I know the manga ended a year ago, and though I haven't read it, I've been spoiled rotten due to the series's popularity. I have a particular fondness for Kurenai's team of Hinata, Shino, and Kiba. They're pretty neglected, so I want them to have some love.
Inuyasha I'm 100 episodes in, and I've been introduced to most (if not all) of the major players in the story. Shippou is still my favorite character, but I like the other main characters as well.
Yu Yu Hakusho It's an oldie but a goodie. I've gotten through most of it. I'm at the part where the main characters are in that crazy house with those three guys. I can't decide whether Kurama or Kuwabara (did I spell that right?) is my favorite. I'd be happy with Yusuke, too.
The Original Characters

From Survival Instincts: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]

Thanks and happy holidays. I can't wait to see what you give me! ^_^
MY GREED KNOWS NO LIMITS!!
♪
*Shot.*
Aaanyway this is going to be a list of the many, many options that my Secret Santa can draw for me. But before I get down to typing out the good stuff, I gotta clear the air on a few things.
1. I don't actually celebrate Christmas. So why am I participating? Refer to the first sentence of this post. It's actually because my birthday happens to be the same day as Christmas. You don't have to include anything birthday related, though.
2. I'd rather have a piece of work that is 100% yours (no matter how good/bad you think it is) than a "lump of coal". By that, I mean tracing, bases, screenshots, character generators, or outright theft.
3. I don't care how many characters you pack into the picture. You can draw one. You can draw them all. Actually, I wouldn't recommend you draw them all. You'd probably want to kill me by the end.
4. Parts of this list will be copied and pasted from last year. I will add and subtract parts as necessary. In fact, this whole first bit, save for point 3 and a few extra flourishes, was copied directly from last year's wishlist.
Now, the fun part!
First Tier-- series that I'm currently obsessing over (favorite characters in parentheses, and in no particular order):
"Fullmetal Alchemist" (I really like all of the major players in the manga, so you can't go wrong there. My two favorite characters are Alphonse and Greed [traditional form]. Yeah, like you couldn't tell I'm a Greed fangirl.) Note: I'm not as big of the first anime, and I have yet to see "Brotherhood" (I'm STILL saving for the DVDs-- or hoping that someone will give them as a birthday present), but I have read the whole manga. Since the manga and "Brotherhood" are so well aligned, you don't have to worry about including characters that I haven't seen animated.
"Death Note" (L, Ryuk, Matsuda [I'm serious about this, guys], and I kind of like Light, even though he's so corrupt.)
"Gurren Lagann" (Kamina, Simon, Yoko, Nia, and Viral [the last of which seriously needs more love].)
"Sailor Moon" (I like all the Sailor Senshi Scouts Soldiers Guardians, but my favorite is Sailor Saturn.) Note: I have not seen all the episodes in the first series, but I have read the entire manga. I like the manga/"Crystal" continuity better, but I'm more of a fan of the first series' art style.
"The Seven Deadly Sins" No one's gonna do this. (Any of the first four Sins that were introduced, as well as Elizabeth, Hawk, and Elaine is fine with me. Just no pervy stuff. Also, Ban x Elaine [AKA Banlaine] is my ultimate OTP.) ♬ Note: I'm up to date on the manga, but I haven't seen the anime (it's not legally available). I know that the anime has followed the manga pretty closely so far, so don't worry about spoilers.
Second Tier-- series that I really, really like but not I'm obsessing over (favorite character in parentheses, and in no particular order):
"Naruto" and "Naruto Shippuden"(Hinata, Sakura, Chouji, Lee, and Deidara. But I wouldn't want a picture of Deidara with the others unless they're battling or something. You can add the other young Leaf Ninja or Akatsuki if you want, but I do want one of the five characters listed above to be included.) Note: I am not up-to-date with the series. I'm at the part where Naruto is on his way to meet Killer Bee.
"Inuyasha" (I like the core cast members, but my favorite is Shippou.) Note: I have not finished the series. I am finished with the part where Inuyasha breaks Naraku's barrier, and ALMOST defeats him.
"Attack on Titan" (Armin is my absolute favorite, but Mikasa and Eren are cool, too.) Note: I have finished the anime, but I have not read the manga.
"Yu Yu Hakusho" (My favorite is Kurama, but I also really like Yusuke and Kuwabara. I'm not crazy about Hiei as much as the others, but I hope he'll grow on me.) Note: I have not finished the series. I just got to the part where Yusuke's egg is about to hatch. Then the DVD I borrowed was too scratched up to continue.
"Slayers" (I want a picture of Lina being AWESOME.) Note: I haven't finished the series. In fact, I just started watching it last night. I'm only three episodes in, but I'm already hooked.
Please keep all characters as in-character as possible. Crossovers are welcome, but not necessary. If you, for some reason, want to draw me with any of the characters I mentioned, please respect my principles and don't ship me with anyone. I don't want any established characters to go out-of-character for me.
I'd be THRILLED if you drew any of my OCs. If you want to know more about them, check my Portfolio or the Charahub account that I just created. Sorry for making you hunt, but I'm just trying to save some space.
Told ya it'd be a long list of options. I even cut out a lot of the things on last year's wishlist, and it STILL took me over an hour to type and edit all this.
Thanks in advance. Of course I'll also thank you when you post whatever you picked for me. It would only be fair if I added to my Favorites as well. But I just want to thank you now anyway. I can't wait to see what you draw for me! ♪
Merry Christmas to you and jovial Keba-mas to me. ♬
