--description--

In the dialogue, James says I didn't know you were interested in this to refer to the fact that he had no idea Sarah liked going to comic conventions.

Sarah had just commented about this, so James uses this in his sentence to refer to a thing that had just been mentioned. It is another usage you have for the word this, to refer to something mentioned a bit before.
