Description:

The August 2016 Fandom in a Mini Bag swap is Anime.

Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite characters, series, manga, etc.

Step 2: After partners are assigned, check to see what your partner likes. You can follow-up with a message if you need to know more. Then scrounge up, buy, and/or create items that fit in a bag. Your bag must contain at least 5 different types of items although more is certainly encouraged. (PLEASE try to make it look full). Different types of items means 5 ATCs, 3 pins, 2 postcards would be 10 items but only 3 different types. The swap requirement is for 5 different types in a bag.

Some ideas of themed items: stickers, ATCs, postcards, toys/action figures, comics, note cards, pins/buttons, magnets, jewelry, trading cards, legal music CDs, charms, ornaments, bookmarks, address labels, plushies/stuffies, promo stills/autograph cards, fanfic drabbles/ficlets, etc.

More specific ideas: anime trading cards, manga volumes, cosplay albums, cosplay clothing items/props, soundtracks, chibi drawings of favorite characters, etc.

Be sure to check your partner's profile so you don't send anything he or she might be allergic to.

Step 3: Put the items in a ziplock-type bag. Size: 1 quart (AT LEAST 8.5inches by 7 inches or 21.5cm by 18cm). You can decorate the bag or incorporate the bag into something (mount it or sew something around it). If you want to make or buy a bag instead of using a ziplock plastic one, that's fine as well, but it should be at least a quart in size. All items you gather or create should fit into the bag (if a couple are too big, that's fine).

Assemble your bags during the month of August and please send by the deadline (August 31)

Group rating rules apply. NO FLAKING ALLOWED! Flakers will not even be available as Japanese imports.

I am not super up to date on anime but here are a few that I enjoy. If you cannot find stuff for any of these, feel free to send me something from one of your favorites (make sure to tell me what it is so I can look it up). I especially like stickers, ATC's, and postcards.

  • One Piece (Favorite Characters: Law and Zoro)
  • Princess Tutu
  • Vision of Escaflowne
  • Wish (It's a manga only)
  • Fake
  • Fairy Tale
  • Slayers
  • Magic Knights Rayearth
  • Petshop of Horrors

Recommendations for shorter series are especially appreciated, especially if they are on Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Video. If you do not know what directions to go, I am really easy to please. There is usually SOMETHING in every genre that I am fan of.

My go to are things that are fantasy based. I do enjoy yaio/shonen-ai and would love to see some good yuri/shojo-ai.

@KateKintail I rarely see anyone list Weis Kruz! That was one of my first anime's! And Fake was one of the first to manga's I bought!

@angeliclizard Yeah, I guess my anime tastes are a bit older... but the Weis boys are SO HARD to quit loving! So awesome that someone else knows them too! :-) (am flailing in a fangirly way in celebration)

I'm looking for new recommendations in this area so I'm excited to find some goodies for my partners swap. Because of you ger relatives, I'm pretty familiar with Sailor Moon and if it coints, Pokémon :-). Other than those two, whatever my partner pits together is fine with me! It'll be fun to discover new (to me) anime series!
