user2869: Just finished my first episode of Katanagatari... and then I got my gift, a Katanagatari art book!


and what's inside...



In Japanese! I need to learn how to read it :p
It's a great gift, I always want an art book. Thanks!

user27: Thank you Oshino Shinobu for the amazing gift!
I actually got mine a few days ago, but was too busy to post and show it off. So here I am!
I got home after a long week away, to find it waiting for me. At first I didn't know what it was, but then I understood once I saw the address. Excited, I made sure to take images before I tear it open (Okay, maybe I forgot and started tearing it open before I took the picture, don't judge me!) (Banana for scale):


And in the package was... An adorable Chibi figure of Eren from Attack on Titan!


Along with 2 beautiful bookmarks and keychain holders


Some poses:


Thank you for a gift that will surely make a permanent addition to my desk :D

user93: I totally forgot that this post existed.

I got this awesome set of things--fuzzy socks, a cat glasses case, a coin purse, a few plushies, a cat hoodie-cape, some sort of egg-shaped thing, a phone charm, a Sailor Moon pen, and a Sailor Moon bow clip. 
I thought I knew who my secret santa was, but I realized I have no idea, so thanks to whoever you might be. 

user63: Here is my gift. It's courtesy of the great kuwaly!
Volume 6 of the awesome slice-of-life fine arts 4koma manga GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class!

(Better quality ver coming soon)

Yay~ Thanks~

user49: I got the first three (or in fact the first nine, since they're 3-in-1) volumes of the manga version of Neon Genesis Evangelion from Asada Shino.  

 
I haven't had the chance to read them yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll love them (the anime is one of my favourites). I can't thank my gifter enough, and these books will have a special spot on the shelf!  
And I hope we can make the gift exchange work again next year~

user1458: Seems like I am the first one to be showing off. I received the manga: "The book of human insects". 
I were a bit skeptical at first by the images shown on the cover, but the title actually got my hopes up. After reading the first 50 pages or so, I really started to like the story. And managed to read the whole thing in 2 days ;)
Thanks allot for the awesome gift ^^!


user6446: Tonight I am going to post what I got, I will update this answer with peekshurs!
Sorry for being so late, I am too forgetful ._.
EDIT:
Courtesy of Toshinou Kyouko, a lovely christmas card :3

Two cute plushies (chick and Totoroooo~)

The first volume of the Yotsuba&! mango :3 I've not gotten round to it, but I will probably pick it up in the coming weekend :)

And a Tankōbon (I believe that's the right name for it :P) of "All you need is kill"

I love the plushies, they're cute :3
I'll probably read Yotsuba& this weekend and start on All you need is kill ^^ They look interesting :D

user1530: Thank you Madara Uchiha!
It took a while to get here, but it finally arrived. Customs must have been curious about what my gift was too!
 
(Kyouko-censored)
Time to open :D

Padded with some Japanese newspaper. The sports section - there seems to have been some horse racing event on recently.

Turfy \o/
Now, back to the gift! After taking out the newspaper, there was.....

A figurine of Mikasa Ackerman from Attack On Titan! (At this point I was shaking - half with happiness/excitement, half because I had gone to the gym just before coming home to open it)
I carefully took her out of her encasing and started checking out poses and different accessories - She's very customizable :D

Mikasa is my first full size figurine ( I have a Yotsuba& keydongle and a tiny non-posable Lucky Star figure), So I am super happy to get my first one today ^__^. Here are some photos of Mikasa in action



I then had to eat, because I didn't realise so much time had passed!
I started getting into photography this year, so Mikasa will be my first model :D I looked up some guides online to improve my photos. There's lots I need to try doing - Different lighting, backgrounds, angles, ... I look forward to it :D
Myself and Mikasa are so happy we could die:

BUT NOT UNTIL WE AVENGE MADARA'S GIFT IN THE NEXT SECRET SANTA!! D:<
