25 Hilarious Times Japanese Take Halloween To The Next Level
Everything is so ordinary, and it’s crazy.
Not everyone is mentally prepared to go all out for Halloween. In fact, in Japan, ‘Jimi Halloween’ is an event that is celebrated annually and invites people to participate in Halloween. There is one rule: people may not dress up as any celebrity, anime characters, or cartoon characters.
They are to come and appear as your average Japanese. Jimi Halloween (地味ハロウィン) itself means ‘mundane Halloween.’ This was started by a small group from Daily Portal Z in 2014 which, was influenced by their wish to participate, but they’re too shy to dress up. To this day, it has turned into a big event with hundreds of attendees every year.
