I wandered over to Sakura-Con... and though lacking in anime knowledge, I was prepared for the video game stuff and the overwhelming mass of cosplayers. In proper Cooter fashion, I'm going to try to chronicle some of my more noteworthy experiences.
I ended up fighting a lot because it's just what I do. It's a S.T.A.R.S. thing. Some chick from whocareswhere showed up and we battled. She complained because guns beat silly knives.

Anyway, she dead.
I was feeling kind of cocky by then and decided to fraternize with the enemy.

They seemed pretty put out by it. Go figure.
My efforts earned the attentions of Dr. Horrible himself and I squealed like a school girl on a field trip to the My Little Pony factory.

They never taught me how to pose for the camera in basic.
But the real disaster befell me when I encountered a wild Mewtwo. Having used my Master ball on a Zubat, I did the next best thing.

I got ma' guns.
But Mewtwo is psychic and immune to the RCPD type special attacks, so its Confusion attack was super effective. I don't remember much after that.

I woke up and my wallet was gone.
