Ah, sounds like a great gift, Aubrey.

I say... Sailormoon! I mean, if she doesn't like it, she can send it to meeee.

*ahem*

Shoujo, eh? Well, there are some series that can be considered "mainly for girls" that are, well, girly, but have more to them that purely superfficial nonsense. Sailormoon, unfortunately, does not fit into this category.

There are several, though. I think that it also depends on what she likes, besides shoujo. For example, does she like drama, action, comedy, sci-fi, and so on?

Since you haven't specified, I'll give you a list of what I can think of right now:
[list][*] Revolutionary Girl Utena [*] His and her Circumstances [*] Escaflowne - admittedly, this is an action anime. However, there is a vast number of bishounen in this anime. I myself am quite into the girly stuff and found to like this series much. The story is amazing, too, btw.[*] Fushigi Yuugi[*] Someday's Dreamers - this one is not famous at all, I think. It's quite nice. Heart warming story.

But, above all these, this is my favorite recommendation:

Fruits Basket

This is for girls and for guys. Beatiful blend of characters, story, animation and music. I'm sure almost any girl would enjoy this... well, I'm sure almost anyone would enjoy this.

Hope that helps.
