About Angus villager - there are more villager with "species inappropriate" names. There is pig named Rasher (like british therm for slice of bacon) and horse named Elmer (like in Elmer's glue - glue used to be made from horse bones and hooves) and chicken Benedict (like in dish eggs benedict).

[@prageruwu69]

wtf is an inaprobate

[@AzzureSky]

@@prageruwu69 inappropriate. You never misspelled anything?

[@scarlettg.5772]

Can’t forget Patty the cow. They love their burger reference lol.

[@jstarstudios7110]

Pate the duck, Chops the pig, Boots the alligator, Jambette the frog, Pancetti the pig...there are lots!

[@OlagGan]

Dear me!!! EVERYONE has appeared to have forgotten the more appropriate reference. He's actually named after a Scottish breed of cow called the Aberdeen Angus. They are known for their extreme hair and huge hornsl

[@kjdubs5877]

K.K being the only naked villager still gets me. To me, his guitar is his clothes

[@littlefox_100]

Technically, he's just shirtless, seeing as villagers dont wear pants.

[@vympyr]

Coco is based on Haniwa figures which are terracotta figures made to be buried with the dead. Gyroids are also based on them.

[@lightdreamer_]

Yeah, I don't know why he just misinforms like that, it's stupid

I like to call her a gyroid bunny when I remember what gyroids are

[@Tazerboy_10]

Yikes, that's scary...

[@Malsypoo]

For a channel focused on animal crossing it's funny and frustrating how much he gets corrected in his comments

[@sarahlulubells]

The “Jeremiah was a bullfrog” one really got me. So direct and obvious but god it made me laugh

[@Nobody___]

Marlo has to be a reference to Marlon Brando who was a legendary actor and the Godfather. Explaining his connection to the mob in the game

[@Dremag_Gaming]

It's a wonder that wasn't mentioned.

[@MaximNightFury]

@@Dremag_Gaming Probably never watched The Godfather and didn't catch that

[@Dremag_Gaming]

@@MaximNightFury Could be. There's many who hasn't

[@Shiba_Draws]

He reminds me of winston churchill (appearance wise)

[@Bl0MANIAC]

There actually was a "secret lawnmower" in a few games. That was actually wisp! If you put all his spirit peices back together you can ask him to pick your weeds

[@Spax086]

In New Leaf if you visit Otto and Tom a lot, Otto will eventually mention Tom's ex. Then they'll both tell you about her,. Apparently it was Sable, and they split up because she didn't like him giving her business advice.

[@_loaf0]

Otto and Tom?

[@Lemon_Blossom9]

WHO'S OTTO????

[@Kota-Kun26]

LMAO

[@Kota-Kun26]

Thou I'm guessing by Otto you mean Lyle-?

​@@Kota-Kun26for a second I thought you meant Tom the Cat villager

[@imoitsyokan]

Ace’s doubutsu no mori shirt is actually a spade, not an ace. But it does correlate that both Ace and Spades are related to cards.

[@psychopathicmagpie]

The Hylian Loach was actually a thing in Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It is also super hard and probably the reason a lot of people that never found the fish in Ocarina of Time (but knew it was in there) thought that was the name of it too

[@sidnew2739]

HYRULE-Loach!

[@Overruledrobot]

I've never thought coco was a coconut/had a coconut head, I always thought she was some sort of gyroid bunny hybrid

[@starcrysis23]

She is. That’s what her design is based off of. The English name is the only thing that suggests otherwise but that’s uhh… not relevant on what a character was designed after

[@gingerbaked]

I thought Coco was supposed to be a gyroid though? Thats why she has no real face/ facial expressions

[@lightdreamer_]

That's true, video is wrong

[@gamerkitten6480]

One thing that you didn't mention is how Gabi bears a striking resemblance to Roger Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Or how in the song Rockin' K.K., which is based off of the song Johnny B. Goode by Chuck Berry, part of the lyrics that gets repeated a lot is 'Oh na mi oh', which sounds like 'Go, Johnny, Go', which is a lyric in the song it was based off of.

[@Kisakeen]

I like how people forgot about in New Leaf there is a villager you cam only get from an amiibo of Link in his wolf form

[@AzzureSky]

Also no, Coco isn't reference to coconuts. She's based on gyroids.

[@Miss_Kisa94]

It could be both. I'm sure it's a multilayered joke.

[@starcrysis23]

@@Miss_Kisa94so is he talking about her design or her English localization name? Cuz her design is based off what gyroids are based off of. Her English name is rumored to mean coconut.

[@Miss_Kisa94]

@@starcrysis23 yeah that's what I said it was a multilayered joke

[@Miss_Kisa94]

Surfing kk's album cover reminds me more of the Dick Dale album cover "surfers' choice" the font even looks similar and Dick a Dale was known as the king of surf guitar. Also I think the villager using balloons in smash makes sense to me personally. There have been balloons carrying presents all back since the first game on the N64.

[@qorkbro]

[@novafiregalaxy204]

Yeah but they still leave and won't stay if you have roaches. Don't remember why though.

[@qorkbro]

@@novafiregalaxy204 I know I saw on a video a ways back that they will stay, because lazy villagers will tell you stuff like oh my cockroach friend in my floor said this and likes to eat this

[@milomcnasty]

Kinda upset you brought up things as basic as Dom and Ace's name but didn't mention my boy Pierce being a reference to the TV show MASH of the main character Lt Hawkeye Pierce. Pierce's catchphrase is even Hawkeye. There's also a huge amount of other naming references enough to make a whole video on alone.

[@Shiba_Draws]

Omg Pierce 😭 he was in my acnl town!! Gotta love Pierce, such a good birb

[@wyass4722]

I just wanted to point out that the Wright brother's plane never actually flew and was announced after Santos Dumont's plane which actually took off by itself. So them being flightless bird might be a joke about this historical injustice lol

[@johnnyknadler1157]

The tree in AC:NL also requires a certain amount of hours to grow as well

[@zimternet]

a pretty obvious one, but if this ever gets a sequel, k.k. robot synth is a reference to vocaloid! in the album art, kk slider even has a similar hairstyle to kaito, and the song is even referred to as "k.k. loid" in the original japanese version of the game!

[@asdfasdfq6005]

Hylian is still a way of saying "from Hyrule". So even if the fish is called a Hyrule Loach, saying "i wonder if it's Hylian" is still correct. Not mandela effect at all

[@potatotomato11]

Kappn also has 2 photos on his boatman New Horizons . One of his mother/grandmother... I think and the photo of his wife and child... but you can only spot them on the way to an island and on the way back. Also I'm loving your channel btw its so fun!

[@wesen345]

The Techno Pop from K.K. is a quote to the german Band Kraftwerk. Which have an similar Artstyle and also a Song with this Name.

[@Skawooga]

5:00 I love that Eugene is on the K.K. Ska cover, he reminds me of Aaron Barrett from the band Reel Big Fish

[@AJOTR-animations-productions]

“K.K. Song” is a reference to “Super Mario Bros. 2 USA” from the file “Totaka’s Song”.

[@satinfoil]

16:56 actually, I think thats only a feature in the e+ version which only released in japan. Not in the "original animal crossing game". And before anyone says "No, it's in English"; It's a fan translation, because that version had more features the the europe or north amarican versions

[@ghsotlylazy]

coco is not a coconut though... just by searching her name on google it just straight up says she's a terracotta rabbit. shes like a gyroid, which are inspired by haniwa statues. though her name was probably localized as coco because most english players wouldnt get the reference. her name in japanese is yayoi, which would be a reference to the era when the haniwa statues were created. if you read just a bit more in the wiki below the part about the coconut and cocoa you would find this information, which honestly is way more interesting than the coconut and cocoa stuff

[@MooseShower]

Fun fact: Kitty White (Hello Kitty) is a little girl, not a cat

[@radioactivevolt]

3:02 I think you meant GameCube, the horned hat and the lily pads on the river proves that it's supposed to be Population Growing. 17:18 You probably don't remember that being a feature because it's exclusive to the japan only Dobutsu No Mori e+

[@pehpunkt]

Fun fact: Hello Kitty, just as Rilla, isn't a cat either :)

[@hunterneitzel3012]

7:35(Aberdeen) Angus actually refers to a breed of small beef cattle that originated from Scotland. It's a naturally polled(hornless) breed and it's and solid black or solid red in coloration. It was named after Angus, a local council in Eastern Scotland. It could also refer to the German Angus, a crossbreed of Aberdeen Angus and various native German cattle breeds, including German black pied, Deutsche rotbunte, and fleckvieh. The most controversial cow names are t bone, as in t bone steak, or as in a type of car crash called a t bone, when one car hits the side of another car front on, and patty, as in beef patty or just as a harmless shorting of the feminine name Patricia

[@thehypermoth]

7:35 Angus's name is actually a reference to a red Angus, a breed of cow. We actually have some that live nextdoor to us on the adjacent farm!

[@mollysmith4018]

With marlo, I’m assuming he’s meant to be like Marlon Brando, since he played the godfather.

[@Redhd500]

13:56 if smug villagers end up in this scenario, they won’t be freaked out, but instead will leave because you “already have friends over”.

[@katalystkatapatheticalyssa5987]

Reneigh will always crack me up.

[@MikeTyson-ft8nq]

Rudy is probably based on Jibanyan, from YKW, as when he was alive, he was a red cat named Rudy.

[@JohnSmith-we3hv]

In ACNH, if your character has long hair, it will fly around a bit when your character moves!

[@Whimsykit]

7:38 theres also a cow villager named patty so....

[@emmegrace1110]

could also be a reference to “cow patty” aka cow poop

[@TenkoshimuraAkashigaraki]

nobody gonna mention how Angus is a breed of cow and not a just a burger-? most burgers are Angus, but that's because they're the main beef cow- so-

[@Geeky_Riley]

First time I played Animal Crossing, I got Jeremiah. I shared the village with my mom and sister. We all instantly got the reference and would hum that part talking to him. In fact I remember my mom passing me when I found him telling her to meet Jeremiah and without missing a beat she asked "Is he a bullfrog? Oh! He actually is!" This is what happens when singing songs with two words that match a conversation is normal in your family. 😂

[@OpalFedora92]

You could get a lot of money on the gamecube kappn island if you leave fruit on the ground, save the island on your sp or gba and give the islander the fruit. The islander would drop bells but you'd need to keep them from picking them back up before you could go back on the gamecube

[@novafiregalaxy204]

Angus, Patty, and Elmer all are unfortunate 🤣🤣

Actually, you can get Totaka's song on a tape recorder, which it's called K.K song. One of my villagers (Barold) had it on in their house

[@yearunknown9602]

I had that quote from 2:00 minutes into the video on my animal crossing new horizons island

[@Dunkelwald_]

The "hints" about the names are kinda meh because those are mostly only their english name and not the original names so it only makes mostky sense in english.

[@torie8957]

Kikis design isn’t based on Jiji tho because she isn’t called Kiki in Japan. In Japanese, her name means caviar.

[@Giantalfe]

9:59 Oh NAH you not getting away with saying name like that...

[@loovemi]

Are you sure about fake mona lisa and the key? I have one and I don't have this key :( I think this is other painting. But which?

Angus is a cow breed. The patty is named for the breed. So Angus' name really isn't that bad.

[@Momodoodle2337]

Did you know that in new horizons, the path in the museum is like the one in the museum in new York, I forget the name though al I know that's it's very famous

[@sonicguyver7445]

The Jeremiah reference I thought was pretty obvious. I thought back when Evil Imp was doing horror movie trailers in Animal Crossing that would have been good. Doing a creepy low version of the song then when you get to "I never understand a single word he said" then the screen goes black with a loud slam and whisper, "but I helped him drink his wine." Then a series of fast panicked shots of characters running from an unseen danger as the sound is sing aggressively loud.

[@ravenvanhonacker4249]

Wait you can hire leif to get rid of the weeds 😅🤦‍♀️

[@norawatkins4713]

Yup Nintendo saw nookazon and said yup we gonna steal dat

[@Bl0MANIAC]

Or just an easier alternative to staying up late and finding wisp

[@Defender1876]

that prunes saying sounds like the duke nukeum bubble gum saying

[@Kitty255Again]

Technically the Hylian thing was correct since it refers to the fish's nationality rather than it's species (or would that be Hyrulean since Hylian is a race? If that's the case then the line is wrong in multiple ways)

[@ChillT0kyo]

i literally caught a loach while playing acnh, while watching this, the second you said "loach".

[@invaderalienface6507]

2:33 I remember I loved the movie that had Jack black (idk if there's multiple movies based on this book but there probably are.)

[@Freidis]

Angus beef is named after the Angus cows it comes from. So while it’s possible that Angus is named after burger patties, it’s also possible he’s just named after the breed of cow. Although considering some of the other villager names in the series it could go either way.

[@Foxs_the_nonbinay_kid_aj]

I can’t unsee coco as a bowling ball😂

I had a villager named Monty leave my island. But soon he visited the campsite.

[@NightOfTheFunks]

coco"s desighn is achually based off a gyroid ;-; i thought that was obvious lol

[@BloodMoonCosplays]

Coco has nothing to do with chocolate or coconuts lmao- she’s a haniwa figure reference, Haniwa figures were buried to protect the dead of wealth, and that’s what the gyroids are based off of too- some of these don’t seem to be legit, did you research all of these before hand or..?

[@Duran2R00ls1]

Did you miss what you also sometimes say when you catch a squid? "Do they...not actually go bloop?"

[@bludvial]

aint no way bro just found out about the sanrio acnh characters were based off of several sanrio characters 💀💀

[@Kota-Kun26]

I really like to think that Rudy is based off of Jibanyan from Yo-kai Watch. Though the series isn't entirely well known bc they slowed down/stopped localizing the games and kinda dipped in popularity after Yo-kai Watch 3 came out I think. It's a really good game though and I'd recommend it to anyone really mostly for the funny moments in the story and quests. xD (mostly in Yo-kai Watch 2, as far as I know because I still haven't played the 3rd game.) (Spoilers Ig for Yo-kai watch-) Rudy was Jibanyan's name when he was still alive as a cat and also looks a lot like Rudy from Animal Crossing too.

[@5095smf]

5:46 I think this one is a bit of a stretch since he's just surfing, lol

[@Duran2R00ls1]

I don't like having Leif pull weeds for me. He charges Bells, while you get Nook miles for selling them, plus there are DIY recipes that use them, like medicine and Roasted Sea Bass with Herbs.

[@14akamaru]

Something not mentioned about Porter the monkey is that in the first two games he's not in (Wild World and City Folk), there's a jock villager named Champ who has a near identical look to Porter. Then comes New Leaf. Porter is back, but Champ is gone.

Angus is a type of cow where the Angus steak comes from. Hence the name "Angus beef." Dom is a reference to "DOMS" - Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. Its when your muscles hurt after a workout.
