What anime or graphic novel is a good x-mas gift for a 16 yr old girl?

So I'm buying an x-mas gift for a 16 yr old girl. I have no idea what to get but one time when we were at a bookstore I saw her camping out at the graphic novel/anime section. So I figure I'll buy her some of those books. But I don't know which ones to buy. Please post suggestions of what's popular in anime/cartoon for teenagers, please.

  1. sailor moon inuyasha full moon
  2. Hmm, she might like "Ah, My Goddess" or "Last Exile". Both are Anime. You have to be careful when buying anime for an anime fan though, you never know... she might already have what you get her. But both of those suggestions have excellent storylines (Ah, My Goddess" is very sweet and gentle, "Last Exile" is high adventure, a ripping good yarn, but is also seven disks and might be a little pricey.)
  3. Get her shoujo (girl) manga. Fruits Basket, Absolute Boyfriend, Inuyasha, Chobits, DN Angel, and Midori Days are all girl based manga and anime that are out as graphic novels or as tv shows. You buy them with free shipping here: http://www.sphiatt.com - (Rock Bottom Prices, and FREE shipping.) http://www.discountanimedvd.com
  4. Inuyasha is probably the one that appeals to the most wide variety of audiences. There are some less known ones, like Ghost in the Shell SAC (series) that appeal to hardcore fans of that anime only.
  5. Runaways by Brian K. Vaughn Teen Titans by Geoff Johns Fables by Bill Willingham if you go to amazon.com you can find them all. Just make sure to get vol.1 of each.
  6. It all depends on what she likes. There are two main categories of anime: the really serious stuff (tends to be gory+more mature) and the truly ridiculous gut-busters. An example of a more serious anime is Neon Genesis Evangelion. Something that is more geared towards humour is Excel saga (totally crazy) Serious: Neon Genesis Evangelion Noein Akira Roujin Z Ghost in the Shell MEMORIES Howl's Moving Castle Tokyo Godfathers My Neighbor Totoro Spirited Away Metropolis Night on the Galactic Railroad Steamboy Grave of the Fireflies Funny: Naruto Fruits Basket Sailor Moon Ranma 1/2 Outlaw Star Paranoia Agent Fullmetal Alchemist (sorry, I don't know too many)
  7. Well I suggest DN Angel or Sensual Phrase. They're both in graphic novel and DVD form. Just anything that looks girlly.
  8. buy her a playboy.
  9. Absolute boyfriend! she would luv it its 'bout luv,drama,n so much more! she'll luv it cuz i do..lol.
  10. OMGGG get her HANA-KIMI. everyoneee luvs hanakimi. its funnyand sweet, lighthearted. and fushigi yugi. if shes into love stories. KARE KANO is the best one out thereeee!!! it also deals with like teenage love issues and relationship ups and downs also, prolly the most famous one is fruitsbasket. its about the zodiac, and each person of a household named "sohma" turns into that animal if theyre hugged by someone of the opp. sex. sounds kinda weird but really anyone who reads it ends up falllinjg in love with it! demon diary, DNAngel, and peachgirl. OMGSH another REALLy good teen shoujo is HOT GIMMICK. really good. reeeeeeallly reeeeeeallly good. i definetely suggest that the most. prollythe most perfect one. errr if they dont seem to really like love story ones, death note is a reallly good manga. ts really CLEVER and seriously so cool. and impresses any intelligent girl. ai yazawa has written two really popular manga as well. paradise kiss (cover looks scary dont wry bou it xD) is about fashion AND love. only 5 volumes too! so its a good pic. there is an ongoingone called NANA where 2 diff. girls go to tokyo meet each other have the same name, and its about how they help each other out.. theyre like 23? i think? i love those two series. just superb, and i havent heard one bad thing about those two. but still. HOT GIMMICK HOT GIMMICK!!! xD
  11. Some people have said Fruits Basket and D.N. Angel. I completely agree. Try Chrono Crusade also, manga or anime. However, I just wanted to inform you that Paranoia Agent is by no means a comedy. It's a very adult oriented series. By that I mean sexual themes and extreme violence. Don't get me wrong, I personally put it on my list of favs, but not for a 16 year old girl. Also, I wouldn't recommend Outlaw Star or Ghost in the Shell. GitS would probably bore her, and OS is more for boys than girls.
  12. Depends which series she's into there's soooooo many. I like DN Angel , Fruitbaskets, Tsubasa reservoir chronicle
  13. Case Closed if she's into mystery and murder and that kind of stuff. Inu-Yasha, and a lot of people like electronics as a back-up.
  14. She would probably love a shoujo(female manga). You can go to Borders: Hana Kimi Fruits Basket Tokyo Mew Mew Naruto
  15. I reccomend Fullmetal Alchemist (it's got a manga and anime form, the manga is the original, but the plots vary a lot.) Despite what a lot of people think, it isn't just another manga with characters that girls like--its really got a lot of depth in it with just the right amount of humor. Or, if serious stuff isn't her type, why not try the series Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu (The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi)? Again, there's a manga and an anime and it's quite hot at the moment. Interesting plot and characters make it an addictive series.
  16. Sailor Moon Or Chobits
  17. These are all popular and I've read all of them, highly recommended for girls that age ^_^: 1. Hanazakari no kimitachi e{Hana Kimi} (manga)- girl going to an all-boys school, i cant find fault in this, except that it has several volumes. must-read 2. Kareshi Kanojo no Jijyo {Kare Kano} (anime, manga) - well this is absolutely funny, highschool couple going through life. 3. Fruits Basket (anime, manga)-guys turning to zodiac animals when hugged by Tohru, the main character. manga is very long though. 4. DN Angel (anime, manga) - kinda detective story,comedy and romance. and Dark is gorgeous. 5. Zettai Kareshi {Absolute Boyfriend} (manga) - absolutely funny! this is my favorite manga. 6. Full wo Sagashite (anime, manga) - great artwork for manga, storyline in anime is different although both are good. she'll especially love it if she's into pop idols. all manga/anime series are complete. btw, its very nice of you to think of it as her xmas gift. best of luck.
  18. It depends. Mangas are usually much more adult than the shows. Even Sailor Moon is pretty violent, but if thats not a problem... I suggest Inuyasha, which is a great action/adventure/romance series. If you don't mind the sexual stuff, Chobits and Paradise Kiss are also two great girly mangas. One more, Mars is kick a$$. That one she would probably love.
  19. hmmm..i would say negima...sailor moon...love hina....ummm...chobits...these are all great
  20. all those mangas are good ideas but most have like 20 volumes to read and thats expensive try imadoki which is just 5 volumes and thats it. its imadoki nowadays its about a high school nerd girl who falls for the popular guy she will love it and just 5 volumes thats it
