Requests for Santa:
~I don't care much for shows that are primarily dirty humor and fan service (a little is fine).
Gift ideas for Santa:
~My preference is for English dubs, but I won't completely write off subs.
~Preferably nothing with more than 72ish episodes.
~I tend to like shows with female leads better, but that's not always the case.
~Something completed (either stand-alone or all seasons done) would be great but by no means a requirement.
~I like otome/visual novel games, so anything with those kinds of vibes. Or something with vibes like Moriarty the Patriot or Astra Lost in Space. Anything I rated an 8 or more may help you get an idea of what I typically watch. I'm really not too picky at the end of the day and will at least try an episode or two.

Requests for Santa: I also like paranormal stories. Nothing tournament-based, please.
Gift ideas for Santa: I love stories that are character-centric! It can be lighthearted or dark/angsty (or a blend). It's fine if there is Some romance, but I prefer it to not be the main focus of the story. Definitely not necessary, but some potential bonuses could be: if the story is a bit spooky; if the story has a detailed magic system; if it has any kind of queer rep (but especially ace or aro coded characters).

❅ Can the anime be on your Plan to Watch list?: I don't mind if its on my list. But in case you recommend one on the list, I'd really appreciate it if you recommended one not on the list too, if I am not being too selfish.
❅ Link to anime list:
❅ Requests for Santa: I'm tired of seeing the same tropes and cliches again and again. You can almost predict what happens next. I want to watch something with a really good and gripping plot/characters. Something that will not put it in the "ah, here we go again" group.
❅ I don't want to watch: No restrictions as such.
❅ Gift ideas for Santa: Moe/cgdct/power of friendship/ecchi accidents have become too repetitive and boring, so I'd like to watch something different for a change. The anime can include it all, but it shouldn't be the sole selling point of it :)

I'm really looking forward to it, thanks dear Santa for taking the efforts for the recommendation.

Thank you dear elf for taking the efforts for my Christmas, may you have a successful year ahead filled of love and happiness!

Gift ideas for Santa:
I'm up for anything. I usually watch series with good comedy romance or some isekai with good storyline and waifus or some CGDCT like idols or band etc. but not boys band or club or stuff. But if you think there is a good series but its in that category I'm okay with it. I'll be happy if you could recommend that one series that is not popular but you thought is a diamond.

Requests for Santa: Want: *This might be weird but I'm asking for something you feel I wouldn't like. Promise I'm not trolling, and I will be happy to receive it.
Don't want: Something you think I'd like. Usually I like things that are low stakes and mellow. Slice of life unless you think I'd dislike it
Gift ideas for Santa: anything you think I wouldn't like. I tend not to like high stakes things-- I hate survival game type of stuff. If you can find something I wouldn't like that's not a bunch of people killing each other then that'd be great, but if that's all you've got then hit me with it. I don't like things that are gimmicky, are female pandering, or make me feel like I'm wasting my time.
Sorry it's a regular request just opposite of what I'd want. Thank you.
For max length: if it's an anime short (less than 15 minutes or so per episode) then I'll go up to 100 per season give or take.

Requests for Santa: I'm looking for an anime with amazing world building. Something where the characters are traveling throughout multiple different settings, and the environment is regularly talked about by the characters. I also like post-apocalyptic settings. Nothing overly sexual/heavy fan service please.
Gift ideas for Santa: Some examples of anime that fit what I'm looking for ~

Wolfs Rain: The "dying world" is constantly talked about by all the main characters, and you can actually see the effects it's had on the background characters living in it

Made in Abyss: Adventuring through a giant hole in the ground, where every "level" is a completely different environment from the last

The Promised Neverland: Different environment and challenges that the characters have to navigate through to reach their destination
