Happy Halloween! It's the All the Best Stuff is from Japan Halloween Special!

萬聖節快樂！這是來自日本的好東西，萬聖節特別篇！

Of course, Halloween is western, so traditionally it never existed in Japan.

當然，萬聖節是西方的。傳統上來說日本從來沒出現過。

But, like other holidays, it's crept and crawled over.

但跟其他節日一樣．它悄悄地滲入日本中。

And people have taken it into their hearts in their own way.

人們用自己的方法把萬聖節記在心中。

Now, as you'd expect from the country that invented cosplay, dressing up for Halloween has caught on in a big way.

跟你所期待的一樣，萬聖節打扮在這個發明角色扮演的地方大肆流行。

Not just scary costumes, but any kind of cosplay characters and dressing up; there's parades and parties.

不只有恐怖裝扮，還有各種角色扮演和打扮，也有很多遊行和派對。

And in places like Shibuya, everyone on the streets is dressed up.

就像在澀谷，街上的每個人都會特別打扮。

If you go to TokyoFashion.com and search for Halloween, there are so many amazing cosplays.

如果你在TokyoFashion.com搜尋萬聖節，會出現很多驚人的角色扮演。

Trick-or-treating hasn't really caught on; however, the Japanese Mafia⏤that's the yakuza⏤do open their doors and hand out bags of sweets to children!

不給糖就搗蛋並沒有那麼流行。然而在日本有個黑道叫極道，他們會敞開的大門，並發送袋裝糖果給小孩！

I can't imagine the Godfather doing that!

我沒辦法想像犯罪首腦這麼做！

And when people do go trick-or-treating, it's very, very organized.

當人們上街要糖果時，是很有規劃的。

You sign up to a group, and you get a map showing you which houses are participating.

你要報名一個團體，然後你會拿到一張地圖告訴你哪一戶人家有參與。

And just so you know you're in the right place, they put up Halloween decorations outside.

為了讓你知道正確地址，他們會把萬聖節裝飾放在屋外。

Sometimes you pay a fee to join in, and the money's shared out between the houses to pay for the sweets.

有時候你要付費參加，費用會被分配給每戶人家提供糖果的錢。

And I've even seen advice saying that it's ok to just give out a couple of regular sweets.

我還看過一則消息是說只要給幾顆一般的糖果就好了。

Because some people had been going way over the top and wrapping up fancy gift bags to give out.

因為有些人會做得太過頭，發送出包裝精美的禮物袋。

For some people, Halloween is seen as an excuse to go wild and be irresponsible.

對某些人來說，萬聖節似乎是一個發狂和不負責任的理由。

And the morning after Halloween last year, the streets of Tokyo were covered in litter and fake blood.

去年聖誕節的隔天早上，東京的街頭滿是垃圾跟假血漿。

Now this is really unusual and surprising because in general, Japanese culture is usually about being really respectful and thinking about others.

這是一個很不常見的驚人景象。因為一般來說，日本文化通常是給人很尊重和體貼的感覺。

And usually, there's no litter on the streets at all; it's really clean.

而且街上通常要很乾淨，都不會有垃圾。

So the morning after, everybody felt guilty and came out, cleaned up the streets, and took pictures of themselves cleaning, and posted them on the internet.

那天早上之後，大家都感到內疚。於是他們出來清理街頭，把他們打掃的照片放到網路上。

In Yumenoshima Park, that's literally Island of Dreams Park⏤best park name in the world⏤they have a pumpkin patch.

在夢之島公園，世界上有著最美名字的公園，有一個南瓜園。

And they bring the pumpkins in from north of Tokyo for kids to play on.

他們把南瓜從東京北部帶來給小孩們玩。

They have a pumpkin rolling race and a competition to see how far you can spit a pumpkin seed.

他們會舉辦一個滾南瓜賽跑，還有一個看你能把南瓜籽吐多遠的比賽。

Burger King have a pumpkin burger as a Halloween special, or go for the Pumpkin Bomb, with 10 slices of pumpkin.

漢堡王會推出南瓜堡當萬聖節特餐，或是用10片南瓜做成重量級南瓜堡。

Here's an advert, "Heavy Pumpkin: 500% more pumpkin".

那則廣告是「重量級南瓜堡：一般南瓜堡的500%」。

Last year at JS Burger Cafe, they had a Ghostbusters theme, with a black burger⏤which, in Japan, is nothing new, really⏤a marshmallow cream sundae and monster cream sodas.

去年JS Burger Cafe推出一個魔鬼剋星主題。有黑色麵包的漢堡，在日本並不是多新奇的事。還有一個棉花糖奶油聖代和怪物造型的奶油汽水。

At Sanrio Puroland, there's cute food, Halloween stuff, and costumes, and it's all much more cute than scary.

在三麗鷗彩虹樂園，他們有可愛的食物、萬聖節裝飾和服裝。可愛程度遠超過恐怖。

And you can get these adorable Halloween treats: a Pumpkin Pudding Kit-kat⏤there were cheesecake and bake-able versions⏤I tried one, and it was really creamy.

你還可以買可愛的萬聖節糖果：南瓜布丁口味的奇巧巧克力，還有起司蛋糕和可烘焙的口味。我試過一個，真的很奶油味。

And this year, they're doing Mad for Monsters doughnuts.

今年他們推出瘋狂的怪獸造型甜甜圈。

Mister Donut always make cute Halloween doughnuts as well.

多拿滋也都會推出可愛的萬聖節甜甜圈。

This year they've teamed up with Hello Kitty.

And cookies and cream panda Pocky, but the panda's turned vampire, with vampire teeth.
