Well this was second ever cosplay, and since my parents only associate costumes with Halloween that's when I planned to wear it so I wouldn't get any weird reactions from them.
When I got to school they were all asking who I was which is the only downside to cosplaying anywhere else besides a convention. But, I had fun and I even got a dollar cause a guy saw the "R" on my shirt and said he'd give me one if I said I was Captain Retard ... I know, I know a total insult to the character but I still snigger whenever I think of Kohran being called slow cause clearly she is a genius. Even if she blows things up once in a while. ^_^
Don't mind the kitchen backround and lack of pose, my Dad snapped this shot right before I was leaving for school which was 7 am.
