Hello World from where I'm from in Japan, this is what Japanese Halloween is like.
Alright so you're interviewing me. What's different about trick or treating in Japan and in Canada?
In Japan, I don't even know if they have trick or treating.
Because we did an event, there was an event where you paid some money and you can go walk around to 20 houses where they organized in advance
and so all this group of like I don't know maybe 300 or 400 kids
they all got together and walked in this big long snake of a line and they go and say "Happy Halloween"!! and they get candy.
Happy Halloween
But they don't say "Trick or Treat" I don't think.
So trick or treat in Japan was kind of different because
the only reason we had it where we live is because there's an English teacher who started it. Like maybe 10 years ago or something
but the rest of the people living around our area, they had no clue about trick or treating
Hello
Hello?
Okay, so tell me, how was Halloween in Tokyo, in Japan?
Well it was kind of different. But It was fun
Yeah it's kind of sad you only get one candy, each house. Oh each house, ya.
Are you eating your candy already, Shin?
Yeah, one candy.
Look, who's this guy?
A ghost
Were there any cool house?
Umm, yeah!
Yeah? Well what was cool about the houses you went to?
Hm, one had a purple zombie.
He went like this *sound effect*
And, how are the costumes
of the kids?
Well, just like Canada or Vancouver
Just like Vancouver?
Yeah
What did you wear?
Why didn't you wear a costume?
My costume was too...
small
Your costume was too small?
Oh
So did something weird happen?
Well, something that was different
or I kinda thought was funny was
We were trick or treating around 20 houses
we had a map actually
of all the 20 houses you could go to
and there's these high school students
in their high school uniforms
so it looks like a really good uniform actually
if you took that uniform back to Canada
it'll be a really good, trick or treating, Halloween uniform
but they went and they said "Can I have some candy?"
they're like "no you didn't register"
so the kids didn't register and pay their money to go trick or treating
so they couldn't get the Halloween candy
I kinda felt bad for the kids
Did you have fun at Halloween?
Why are you pretending?
It's kind of this
Okay so which Halloween do you like better?
Do you like it better in Canada or ..
Canada!
I didn't even finish my question!
Do you like it better in Canada ..
Canada!
or Japan?
Canada!
Why?
Because you don't need money, you don't need to sign up
You just..
and you don't get one, or two candies
Well, how many candies do you get at each house you go to in Canada?
I mean, no no no
that's in Japan!
Like ...

(5)
Ten candies??Really?
Or

It's a lot!
Really? I didn't know that
Yeah it just goes - shove it *bong* shove it *bong*

Yeah
Oh that's cool
That's kinda like dance
Shove it *pong* shove it *pong*
