Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

You know what, let's do the Annual Mister Global National Costume thread tonight after all. Usual rules apply - this is all in fun, this isn't about the contestants looks or making fun of them, it's about the costumes and appreciating them (or, you know, making fun of them...)

Absolutely still in denial that #BraveAnimatedSeries season 2 is already over... so here's a small drawing celebrating Sage (nee Main Brave)'s character growth. #art #spoilers
Fanart of Main Brave/Sage. Main Brave (back) is a young man with blue hair, wearing a blue cape and wrist guards. He is holding a sword tightly and is looking uncertainly towards the viewer. Sage (front) is the same young man, he is now wearing a blue collared shirt and striped tie. He looks more confident and cocky. He is making a pinching gesture with his hand and a currency symbol floats above his fingers.

Screaming crying etc. #braveanimatedseries #spoilers #art
Fanart of Lonely General and Librarian Witch. Lonely General is a tall person wearing heavy armor and a mask styled like a skull. He is holding a book titled "Frog and Toad Together" and reading aloud uncertainly: "Toad was a-asleep, and he was hayvi-- HAVING a dream..." Librarian Witch has long straight hair and pointed ears, and is wearing a long dress and opera gloves. She is smiling at Lonely General and saying "You're doing so well!" Fanart of Fire Chicken, Flame Hot Dog, Lava Cheese, and Chief Brave. Fire Chicken is a chicken monster breathing fire. He is shouting, "Who the HELL cuts away when a beloved character is in danger like that?!" A note explains "'danger' = crashing the plane." Flame Hot Dog is a tall monster wearing a bomber jacket with HD written across the front. He has his hands raised and is saying "You're absolutely right!" Lava Cheese is a monster with horns and lanky limbs and one arm in a sling. All three monsters look beaten up. Chief Brave is a human wearing spiky armor and a cape, and carrying a sword on his back. He is looking silently at the three monsters.

New blorbos unlocked~ #braveanimatedseries #spoilers #art
Fanart of Sorry Brave. He is an older human with messy hair and stubble, wearing armor and fingerless gloves. He is slouched over a bar, sweating with an uncomfortable expression. He is holding a small cup with pink liquid in his hand, and two more empty cups are in front of him. A hand from off-screen is holding a pink bottle of "Bepto-Pismol" medicine. Sorry Brave is saying "leave the bottle..." while waves of discomfort emanate from him. Fanart of Blood King and Golem Demon Sister. Blood King is a very tall demon with pointed ears, wearing a mask and a cape with a very high spiked collar. Golem Demon Sister is a small stone gargoyle with rabbit ears and bat wings. She is wearing a cute swimsuit with a frilly skirt, and looking up at Blood King with hearts in her eyes.

I might be just a little bit hyped. #BraveAnimatedSeries #spoilers #art
A black and white drawing of True Brave. He looks disheveled, with a patchy beard and mustache, messy hair, and a torn cloak. There is a scar over his eye and he is looking upwards, on the verge of tears. His name, "True Brave," is written across the bottom of the image. Fanart of Fire Demon and Fallen Mad Demon, recreating a screenshot from the show. Fire Demon is a cat-shaped monster wearing a black leather jacket and a yellow shirt. He is looking at the camera with a concerned and slightly panicked expression. Fallen Mad Demon stands behind him, his face taking up nearly all the space. He has a wicked smile showing his many sharp teeth. Caption at the bottom reads, "Bro, aren't you going to move?"

I'm late but whatever, ArtFight 2025 (part 1)~
A drawing of an octopus-person wearing a green suit and black top hat. She is holding a small shrimp-person in her tentacle hand. The shrimp-person is dressed in a pink dress and sun hat with a big bow on the back. The shrimp-person is reaching up to give the octopus-person a kiss. A pink heart and a green heart float in the background. A drawing of an orange dog-person wearing a red and blue parti-color outfit with matching knee-high boots and dark glasses. Her hair is floating upwards like fire. She has one leg raised to step on a pile of books and is reaching towards the viewer with one hand. The background has red splatters. Text on the image reads "let's take ibuprofen together." A drawing of a lion-person with red eyes, dark blue hair and a light blue beard sitting on a surfboard in the ocean. He is wearing a light green swimsuit and several water drops are falling off him. He is looking over his shoulder at the setting sun.

I have no idea what's happening but that will not stop me! #makeaterriblecomicday2025
A six panel comic showing the artist attempting to make a comic. Panel 1: The artist is sitting in front of a computer displaying the words "#makeaterriblecomicday". Artist: "Oh cool! IDK what this is but I want in!" Panel 2: The artist looks excited, with stars in the background. Artist: "Gonna make a COMIC!!!" Panel 3: A close-up of the artist's hand holding a tablet pen. Artist: "...About what though?" Panel 4: The artist's inner editor, represented by a square with a red X in the middle, appears with a poof. The artist looks troubled. Editor: "Aha it's me! The villain of this day!" Artist, weakly: "Nooo" Panel 5: The editor's eyes bug out as it punches at the air with a starburst behind it. Editor: "I will shoot down ALL the ideas!" Text on the side of the panel reads "h/t hyperbole and a half". Panel 6: The editor laughs loudly in the background, while the artist turns away and sheds a single tear. Artist: "Alas... I could not make a-- WAIT"

So the back fell off and while it still turns on it looks like the battery is a bit swollen. I have been yelled at to get the damn thing replaced asap.

.. Unfortunately, I can't currently open up any commission slots. But any donations to help out would be MASSIVELY appreciated

Reminder if you use Firefox and haven't done this yet
to disable their A/I chatbot feature (not just removing it from your sidebar):

➡ go to about:config (open a new tab and type it into the address bar)
➡ locate "browser .ml .chat .enabled" (or just search "chat")
➡ toggle to "false"

My posts are 90% others art, dev work, making, photography and anything creative in between. It’s people looking for help or advice, looking for commons and jobs. If you don’t share that stuff nothing will get seen and to me that’s what a bloody so called art community should do on the regular.
