I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

Recommended Halloween costumes for boys! Cool outfits kids will love (21–30)

prisoner

When it comes to unique Halloween-themed costumes, prisoner outfits come to mind.

As the name suggests, it’s a costume inspired by someone who’s been captured, featuring a striking black-and-white shirt with an inmate number.

It fits perfectly on the Halloween stage, where spooky characters like ghosts and Frankenstein take the spotlight.

When children wear it, it gives an even cuter impression.

Collaborate with other Halloween characters, strike some poses, and have fun celebrating Halloween!

Woody

At Studio Alice, we did a photo shoot wearing Woody’s costume from Toy Story.

Woody

When it comes to cowboy costumes, Toy Story’s Woody is the go-to! A yellow checkered shirt and a cowboy hat are sure to catch everyone’s eye.

Since there are lots of accessories like a belt and a scarf, this costume is better suited for older kids than tiny babies.

The cow-print vest and gold buckle are super cool! Let’s go all-in and become an adorable cowboy!

skeleton

When you think of Halloween, ghosts are a classic, but among them, skeletons are especially popular for their spooky vibe! If you make it too realistic, it might end up more scary than cute, though (lol).

Kids might put on expressions you don’t usually see and have fun with it.

You can use a mask, but it might be hard to find one in a child’s size.

In that case, try doing a full face makeup! Even beginners at special effects makeup should find a skeleton look relatively easy.

Frankenstein

Frankenstein

For an advanced-level costume, Frankenstein is a great choice! The stitched-up face makeup is fairly challenging, so it’s very rewarding.

For the outfit, tattered fabric or dark-colored clothing works best.

Since it’s a slightly scary character, it’s more suitable for older kids.

You’ll paint the skin gray and use gel to create a stitched look, so it’s a costume kids can enjoy making like a craft!

pirate

Pirates are something that every boy probably dreams of at least once! When you say “pirate,” there are all kinds—like Luffy from the anime One Piece, Jack Sparrow from the movie Pirates of the Caribbean, and Captain Hook from Disney’s Peter Pan.

The image you have may vary depending on your tastes, but just putting on a hat with a skull emblem and holding a cutlass gives you a cool vibe!
