How  about  another   mendos  crazy  chrismas  party.  Were  he  invites  every  body  including  betten  ,but  as  she  rides  down  to  earth  she  has  and  acsident  whith  santa  claws.

Or  istead  Ataru  hints to  lum  that  he  had  a  perfect  gift  for  Lum  (may  a  ring,  or  a  locket).  Making  Lum  feel  inferior  because  she  wants  to  do  the  same  for  him.  She  finds   it  kind  of  hard  to  get  him  special,  tha is  not  the  same  old  scarfs  she  have  given  to  him  in  the past.

I think it should be switched. Like Lum gives him a super-gift from her planet which is much more advanced than his/ours and Ataru gets extremely worried about not giving her something that not "too cheap" for her.

I wanted to incorporate something like the missile toe, which seemed like a really fun Lum thing to do but there was already a fic that kinda had the mistletoe thing.

I'm not sure if it counts as copying, I got the idea from here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3973940/1/Mistletoe_Misunderstanding

but I was planning to do something where Lum tries to use the mistletoe (kinda like how she had the lipstick thing in one of the anime episodes)

This sound okay to do?

A case of Pisceans thinking alike: Cata's idea (an Oni-technology gift), with a side-plot of having the device go VERY VERY WRONG in the hands of Moroboshi.

I think he meant Piscean as a person that is Pisces from the Zodiac.

It's a great idea but hey how many animes/mangas have episodes/chapters and jokes alike? ^^

Anyways, you could use the same objects and change the purpose and the rest of the plot. If it's copying using objects from other fanfics then it's copying when we use UY and other maga/anime's characters too.

Just don't copy everything you read and it isn't considered copying I think.

Well, I've already written half the chapter XD

I've pretty much combined all the ideas given to me except for the Piscean thing cause I didn't understand it. :p

Remembering funny episodes. ^^ The UY gang could play this game called "Truth or Dare". That would be so awesome... I love this game! xD It's really cool when you're with a bunch of close friends and you can ask (and be asked) very interesting questions. xD

 Maiby  you  can  do  something  whith  Inaba.  Since  he  works  for  the  destiny  beuro  he  might  have  a  diferent  of  celebrating  new  years. 

Or    a  story  were  Sacura  while  preparing  for  the  new  years  temple  visits  she  acsedently  unlishes  some  kind  of  curse.  That  causes  people  to  get  horible  horacles  that  later  come  true.  You  know  atack  by  giand  dancing  spiders,  or  kiss  by  that  big  lip  tug  that  is  always  shasing  after  Shinobu,  or  worse  cherry.
 (kind  of  a  spind  of  from  the  episode  were Lum  trais  to  force  Ataru  to  a  weding  using  the  horicles.)

I believe that Spanish does the same thing. Lumaholics: Please correct me if I'm mistaken! And, thank you in advance.

You might be able to introduce an extended Moroboshi "family tree" (shudder!), or have Ataru & Lum & his parents make a trip "back home" (wherever that may be). OR, have Lum take the Moroboshi's back to her home planet for some down-home Oni NewYear's celebrations (parodying Japanese [or American] [or even Canadian :P] celebration traditions).

Oni's calendar is different from Earth's which means the celebration couldn't be about the endind and the beginning of years. But UruseiNeo could create a day in Oni's calendar that would be about something that can have many funny moments.

About a plot idea, I had one recently and I even started it. It's about Benten, who thinks about what Ryuu told her: "to be more feminine" . She can't stop thinking of it, and then she goes to Sakura's office and when she's about to ask her, Ryuu appears with the same problem, and now the hope of Benten and Ryuu are at Sakura's hands...

It looks like episode 160: "Ryunosuke vs. Benten! The Fruitless Duel of Passion". But my idea is placed a few days after this episode. And in this one, both Ryuu and Benten won't fight, well, not at all.

Umm... Would Benten go to Sakura though?  She's not really a student at the school so I can't see her going to counciling.

Benten could go to Lum for advice and Ryuu would go to Sakura. Then, it could be a competition to figure out who would be able to be more feminine. xD
