Kristi came to FanimeCon one of the cuter critters in the Pokemon universe, Mudkip.

"So i herd u liek mudkipz?" Kristi from Danville, California must, because she took the time to create and wear this adorable Mudkip Pokemon costume.

When I asked her about her favorite manga, she wasted no time in naming After School Nightmare as one of her favorites. "The story is really good -- it leaves me hanging on the edge of my seat with every volume."
