Nagisa Shibuya, a former member of the idol group "NMB48" and a talent, attended a Halloween event for the movie "Avatar: Fire and Ashes" (directed by James Cameron, released December 19th) held in Tokyo on October 30th. When asked about her Halloween memories, Shibuya shared an anecdote about her family.
As Halloween falls on October 31st, Shibuya appeared in a costume inspired by Varan, a new character from the film. When asked by the moderator about her Halloween memories and anecdotes, she revealed, "Just yesterday, I couldn't attend, but my cousins and the whole family had a Halloween party, and they sent me a video of it."
"My cousin's dad was dressed as a maid at a maid cafe, and my dad was dressed like a princess...it was a hellish scene. It was a hellish Halloween celebration with relatives, but I thought that being able to have fun like that is one of the great things about Halloween," she said, drawing laughter from the audience.
The comedy duo Chocolate Planet also attended the event.
The film is the third in the series, following "Avatar" (2009) and "Avatar: Way of Water" (2022). The series is set in the year 2154, when Earth is on the brink of destruction. Humanity's last hope for survival lies on the mysterious planet Pandora. In order to mine valuable mineral resources, humanity develops "avatars," bodies that combine the DNA of the indigenous Na'vi and humans. Jake (Sam Worthington), a former Marine who lost hope in life after injuring both legs in battle, becomes an avatar and comes into contact with the Na'vi. Resonating with their way of life, Jake falls in love with a Na'vi woman, Neytiri (Zoe Saldana), and begins to regain his will to live...
