    Well, I was chatting with a friend of mine who is teaching English in Japan. He really loves it there. He sent me a few pictures and said he didn't mind if I posted this one here. ^___^
    Well, when I first saw it I was very confused and thought they were his drinking buddies??? or it was Halloween. He said NO!! He was out jogging or walking early in the morning and these guys sort of bumped into him coming back from the bar.
    He assumed the bar sinced they reeked of alcohol. This guy loves using cameras so its no surprise he had one on him, found another person to take a pic of him with the guys. Anyways he's the only uncostumed person there. Enjoy! Anyways, has this happened to someone in Japan as well? Is it a common occurence? Just wondering.

    That made me laugh! I must say, I love the tiger mask, and that mushroom costume makes me wonder whether that guy is a big Mario fan, or if they were on something else apart from beer.

    If this does happen very often, I must say...Culture shock! I'd be very interested to know more.

    I remember you showing that to me earlier.. I love the green mask, that would scare the crap out of me if I were going for a morning walk. I'm tempted to go out some morning with some friends to do that! Those three guys must have set this thing up before getting drunk, I wonder what motivated them to do it!

    *laughs* That's great! I was watching this culture tape, with the young generation doing karaoke. *laughs* Almost as good as the commercials!

    Speaking of which, have you seen indian/paki commercials? HILARIOUS!

    Funny.
    It's interesting that they walked hime like that, i know that in this country you wouldn't take 2 step's outside your door like that with out becoming a target for a hurley stick.
    The tiger mask looks really good and so does the mushroom costume. I guess that it really show's the difference in culture over there.

    Well, I have no idea...I know there's clubs in Tokyo and Osaka that do cosplaying and stuff like that...but just masks....*shrugs* sounds fun though.

    XD I like the Mushroom! XP

    Yes, but i am sure there is a logical explenation for it. Like Kaori said, They were prollly cosplaying. And maybe the night before, after the convention/party then went out for some drinks. . .and came out of the bar the next morning, a bit drunk XP.

    I had some similer experiences when I lived in Japan and my family and I were walking bye a Store to be bombarded by a giant Hello Kitty (a man in a suit), that had jumped out from inside the store starteling us. He then began rambling things and trying to get us in the store, to buy some Hello Kitty dolls that were apearently very cheap, due to the wonderful sale they were having XP.

    Those are just things that tend to happen in Japan. XD
