Help w/ christmas present ideas

Postby Sai » Sun Dec 18, 2005 12:39 pm

Ok, with about a week til xmas, my mom has been constantly bugging me about what i want as a present. It has to be under 200. I dont want an ipod just yet. So yeah, any recommendations? I like video games and own a gamecube and I am not allowed to get anymore consoles, but maybe a handheld like a DS would be ok. I like to read and i like to draw. Thats pretty much it. thanks!!

DS, definately.

And if you need good game suggestions...

Mario Kart DS
Animal Crossing WW
Mario 64 DS
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Advance Wars DS
Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time

Animal Crossing and Mario Kart have Wi-Fi, so you can play with people across the globe, it's great stuff.
Cosplays Planned for Anime Vegas and PMX

Inuyasha (Inuyasha) - 0%
Kakashi (Naruto) - 0%
Komui (D.Gray-Man) - 0% (Not for AV/PMX - Starting Early for Anime Los Angeles)

Hmmm . . . well, judging by your username I'm going to take a wild stab and guess you're a Fruits Basket fan, so if there are any volumes out that you don't have, that would be a start.

Except that she lost interest in the series when she found out what happens in the later volumes. XD;;

The DS is a good suggestion.

If you haven't read it, I highly recommend Full Moon.

Two words: Animes. Boxed. Set.

Wait, that's three words. . .
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Hmm, well it isn't manga, but Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series. Very cool.

I'm not sure if you're a fan of CLAMP or already have them, but the Magic Knight Rayearth Boxed Sets (Manga, not anime) are about $50 less or each, depending on where you buy them. I really liked both series.
