The Whole Point Of This “Mundane Halloween” Trend Is To Dress Up As A Normal Everyday Person And These 45 Folks Nailed It

If you thought that preparing for Halloween means investing a lot of your time and resources into an elaborate, tricky and unique costume, you’ll be surprised to see how people came up with smart ideas to avoid the hassle of spending all of their time creating crafty costumes. 

2 years ago was the first time when Bored Panda presented how the Japanese found a smart way to get involved in Halloween festivities with simple yet clever costumes. This funny idea spread throughout the world, and those who “borrowed” the idea also decided to share their interpretations of “ordinary” costumes depicting everyday situations. With this in mind and following the tradition of “Mundane Halloween”, Bored Panda is ready to present you with this year’s costumes.

The Jimi Halloween (地味ハロウィン), also known as “Mundane Halloween” was started in 2014. Its main idea is that people dress up in simple, everyday clothes instead of a usually self-explanatory costume. Their “costume” should also have a very boring story from everyday life such as going to take the trash out, spilling coffee all over yourself, standing in line in a shop, etc. This trend started in Japan but soon was picked up by people in other countries too.

This trend was created by people who work at an online site called Daily Portal Z that provides people with entertainment content. Their main goal was to have fun and celebrate Halloween without going through the difficulties of having to wear uncomfortable and embarrassing costumes. And it seems that no matter how much some people love to come up with intricate and extraordinary costumes, the simplicity and charm of this idea is taking over.
