The story centers on a perky girl named Christie who falls in love with a TallDarkAndSnarky cosplayer over the course of [[RuleOfThree three]] volumes, each of which involves one annual three-day anime convention. While the love story is the main focus of the book, in telling it the book deftly tackles the oddities of pop culture conventions, and the fans and people of the industry who attend them.

* LackOfEmpathy: Derek completely and unashamedly hits on every hot girl he sees at the convention, even or especially when Christie is right next to him. Christie is incredibly hurt by this but Derek constantly tries to downplay her anger, and even has the gall to get pissed when she shows more attention to Matt to the point he says "Guess I can't trust you after all" when Christie decides she wants to break up. Eventually Christie points out it doesn't matter if Derek doesn't kiss or make out with the other girls, his hitting on them is still incredibly gross because it's a basic lack of respect in Christie.

* AllGirlsWantBadBoysAllGirlsWantBadBoys: Played with. Christie is dating Derek in the first volume but starts falling for Matt, specifically because Matt is much more considerate and compassionate even if he appears to be a moody loner whereas Derek's an inconsiderate and manipulative asshole who treats Christie horribly.
