Just catching up on the 地味なハロウィン ("sober Halloween") event, where flashy fancy dress is banned, in favour of everyday cosplay. This girl has come as the kind of model you see on cheap Korean fashion mail order sites. https://dailyportalz.jp/kiji/jimi-halloween-2018
These two have come as an apologetic YouTube video.

Guy has come as someone who has just arrived at Haneda Airport, and feels a bit cold.
Guy is a commuter who got his jacket caught in the subway door at Ikejiri Ohashi, and couldn't get off until Kudanshita (presumably, because the doors kept opening on the other side). She's carrying her rubbish because she couldn't find a bin at the station.
This guy is a tourist in Kawagoe, who bought his fugashi snack souvenir too early, and has to carry it around.
This woman has come as a customer in a crowded food court, who went to get cups of water first, and now can't find anywhere to sit.
She went as someone who just had a blood test, and now can't do anything straight after. https://twitter.com/uni_iga_iga/status/1056094459279028224

She's the girl in the hananoa hay fever nasal wash ad.
