My favorite obscure tidbit comes from a letter your mom sends you in Animal Crossing GameCube. She says something about being confused why you went to go live with animals, ending the letter with, "don't they smell?" Are the animals in Animal Crossing segregated from humans? There's a lot to think about.
my favourite one is from a smug villager in happy home designer. if you talk to him while he's reading he might say something along the lines of: "I was okay with the localisation of this manga until they started talking about donuts. Yeah right, as if Captain Raisubooru would be caught dead eating donuts!" Raisubooru = rice ball. This is literally a reference to that infamous moment in Pokemon!
It's ten years later and I still really want to know what happened to the person who was *actually* supposed to become mayor in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Someone has vanished, your character is the only one who knows about it, and eventually the town _will_ find out.
The theory is that it was Rover who was supposed to be the mayor and for some reason decided he would push the title off to an unwitting passenger on the train.
i was thinking about this one too! my thought was always Rover (like mentioned above) because he was the only other one on the train with our character, but ig there’s no way of fully knowing
I like to think it was Isabelle, who was really stressed with having to be the mayor, so she changed her name to Isabelle and pretended you where the mayor
My favorite AC lore deep cut in ACNH is actually the bottom photo at the Roost of Blathers and Brewster in the park. It's based on a dialogue with Blathers in Wild World. He'll tell you about the time he couldn't get anywhere with his dissertation and he drifted from café to café until he ended up in on "in a park surrounded by skyscrapers" where he met Brewster who told him that "nothing is sadder than a rushed cup of coffee" which gave Blathers the patience to let the writing flow naturally. They have been friends ever since and that photo is taken in that park. You can see the skyscrapers in the back. :) (also, Lyle tried to sell an insurance to Brewster in Wild World and Blathers threw Lyle out of the museum bc Brewster isn't good at spotting grifters.)
I LOVE the dynamic between Blathers and Brewster. They are SO CUTE!!! I actually ship the two of them, but sadly that seems to be a rarepair since there's not much content about the ship. I'd kill for some good fic about the two of them!!
There was a reference to Reese & Cyrus before the update where they got added to Harv's Island. I cannot remember which character said it and in what context but there was a line of dialogue that went "Hm alpacas?! I always thought they were pink and blue..."
Something I just noticed but in retrospect is pretty obvious is that most of the TV channels you can watch in AC star humans. This combined with Mabel's mention of specifically porcupine starring shows makes me wonder if there are certain channels, and places (what with Resettii's mole spa place and the player's mom in the original AC thinking it's weird that you live with animals) specific to certain animals, and if places like your town and the city in City Folk are considered weird for having a variety of species.
Not a lore per se, but a 4th-wall break, is when Hopkins (so I assume also other lazy villagers) in ACNH told me once that he thought he lived in a simulation, and started questioning stuff like "why do trees have 3 different kinds of wood?" and how Tom Nook´s business works oddly etc. xD I was really shocked when I got that dialogue tbh. Then he just shrugged it off xD
My favorite piece of lore is Goldie having a crush on the Labrador from the Nintendogs box. I think she mentions it in Wild World or it's the inscription on the back of her photo or something.
@bird2034 to be fair I think all the villagers and definitely the mc are children in wild world. It's not supposed to be deep but it's still like "huh that is a whole normal dog"
one bit of lore i love and think a lot about is about reese and cyrus and how they met. in happy home designer, they have dialogue over how they met and i was shocked the first time i saw it because it was so unexpected of them (well... reese especially.) both were delinquents (or "wild" as reese puts it), having met when reese was hanging out near where cyrus and his bike gang were. turns out that they both caught each other's eyes. cyrus, being distracted by reese, then drove and hit into something and she ended up taking him to the hospital and they started dating. which is so wild to me that the most domestic couple used to be a bad boy and bad girl duo.
There’s no question that CJ is a streamer online-as embarrassing as it is to admit, I read _all_ the dialogue _every_ time out of debilitating compulsion and he doesn’t just make stream ‘puns’. Every time you give him more fish he praises you for “keeping his viewers happy,” his first dialogue of the day mentions “coming at you live from…uh, right in front of you!”, he’s been “trending in a HUGE way” and I distinctly remember him using the words ‘livestream’ and ‘followers’ (and even referencing E-sports, confirming internet??) the first time I met him. Plus he constantly has his phone out lol, if he was just obsessed with a literal stream he would have no reason to take a hundred photos of himself and us when we’re not even near a stream or holding our fish 😅 edit: I found a video of someone’s first time meeting CJ and I was remembering right, his introductory dialogue includes: > “I’m tourin’ the islands looking for fresh faces and fresher fish to show off on my *livestream* […] > Fishing is reelin’ in ALL KINDS of streaming numbers right now. *Ever heard of esports?* Well this is SEAsports! > Anywave, I need new fish if I wanna keep my *followers* followin’. […]” It’s the only dialogue I don’t have memorized bc you obviously only see it once but yep, it’s confirmed it isn’t just puns :) 🎣
The Pokemon Pikachu thing was an actual product irl, was a tamagachi sort of thing. That means to me personally that Pokemon exists as a game series in the Animal Crossing universe lol
I once saw someone say they thought it must be the player running around at night, the villagers thought they were "night clowns". That theory could put ur mind to rest, I suppose.
I always thought definitely yes there are places actually called Anytown and Anyisle. I always imagine they’re towns and islands using all the default type styles in mostly basic intended ways, and of course the villagers will rant and rave about how wonderful “Door Template” and “Clothing Pattern” are.
In French, default patterns are from "Chépaki de Chépaou" ("I don't know who from I don't know where") and in Happy Home Designer, random characters are designed as wood cats and called "Chépaki". So I think it's an unknown and anonymous character.
I have a headcanon that the city that's referenced a lot in the older animal crossing games is actually the same place where the Farway Museum from GCN is located, and that the city itself is called Farway.
my favourite piece of obscure lore involves my favourite villager, pietro, and the face paint teardrop under his eye. in the real world, people get teardrop tattoos as a symbol to say that they have killed, done time in prison or have been humiliated. so either he's murdered somebody or have deep trauma from prison or being badly humiliated in some way, or a mix of them.
I can only imagine the poor guy as being humiliated, but I'm sure he also got tear face paint because of the other two reasons, thinking they'd be HILARIOUS with his clown aesthetic.
I want an Animal Crossing game with Moppina. For the unaware, Moppina is a character mentioned in Wild World and maybe City Folk, usually in a conversation between a normal and peppy villager. I believe there's a few variations of this conversation, but in short: Moppina is a mop that the normal villagers are "friends" with, getting offended when Peppies call her an 'it', as Moppina is a she. Moppina lets the normal villagers try out different hairstyles on her and talk to her... which is kinda depressing, honestly, but the Peppy villagers then change their tune and say that Moppina seems nice. I just want an Animal Crossing game where this sentient mop can be a villager. I'd like that.
In the game Fragile Dreams for the Wii, there's a bunch of letters left behind by people who went through an apocalypse. I remember one was someone who didn't care enough about the main character of an RPG they were playing, so they just named them "AAAAAA", and they talk about now that they're facing their own mortality they feel bad about abandoning AAAAA in the middle of the game and never saving the world (or something like that, it's been a while since I've played the game). Anyway, i guess it's a common joke or trope that when a Japanese person is being lazy and have to name something in a game they just type a bunch of As?
I can't remember where I heard it but apparently there is dialogue in ACNL where Mr. Resetti calls you a "No Good Time Traveler". I never got it personally but it sounds cool.
I was half paying attention at 4:18, and It sounded like you say " That time Blather's originally in the city but commits Regicide" and that it the backstory I am choosing for Blather's moving forward. Blather's moves from place to place setting up his museum in an attempt to escape those searching for him.
13:50 Yep, Pokemon Pikachu was a Tamagotchi clone from that era. The first one was black and white in a yellow shell like in the GC game. They released a second color one when G/S came out. I had one, I was obsessed with it. I remember pogging as a kid that they were in AC too.
The idea of a soap opera/reality TV parody Thomas the Tank Engine show the Peppy or whatever characters watch I think the obscure thing I find funny that wasn’t in this is Moppina, an unseen character in Wild World that’s just a mop normal villagers turned into a makeshift friend due to being shy that all the normal villagers in town talk to & try hairstyles on. She’s even mentioned in Maple’s Wild World photo quote.
The way I see time in animal crossing is that the real timeline is happening when the most recent game is… the most recent. Like right now we’re living in real time, but when the next game comes out, it kinda halts in time if that makes sense. It’s no longer moving forward, you’re now just living the last day over and over again. Kinda eerie but that’s how I see it.
when i was a kid i used to look up videos about dr shrunk and who the clerk was and his business partner who we don’t know anything about. the footprints in the theater entrance used to scare me like it was some sort of creepy pasta about dr shrunk
i dont have the full conversation but one time on saturday at around 7:00 pm wade said "This one time, though... Gosh. This is gonna sound weird, but I swear it really happened. I fell asleep in front of the TV and woke up in the middle of the night. I'm still not real sure what I saw! Maybe the TV was showing somethin' I dreamed? Hmm. I don't think it lasted more than about a minute..." WADE KNOWS ABOUT THE ALIENS!!!
someone mentioned this in another comment but I’ve always been super interested in the “unknown sender” from the start of new leaf, the person who was supposed to be the mayor instead of us. I (and a lot of others) always thought it was Rover bc he was the only other passenger on the train with us but I’ve seen some other interesting theories too, just a little detail that always interested me
I doubt it was Rover. He travels a lot, it’s his thing, I heavily doubt he would ever sign up to be mayor anywhere and win 😂 Imo I think it’s just a character we never meet! No character we know fits cleanly.
I discovered your channel just a few days ago and I've really been enjoying your videos, especially your 100 days videos. You've even inspired me to do my own 100 days in Animal Crossing playthrough starting with the first one.
Oh boy... I haven't played Animal Crossing New Leaf in forever, so I really hope my favorite villager didn't move out of Moomin in my absence... Awesome video as always tho!
9:12 there's two book names that i think can possibly be potential references to real world things. turnip your enthusiasm may or may not be a nod to the tv show curb your enthusiasm, and way of the workbench made me immediately think of the manga way of the househusband, although these could also be considered extreme stretches i think lmao
OMG I CAN ADD SOMETHING COOL! I'm currently at 10 minutes. I don't remember if it was Wild World or New Leaf (I think WW) but in the German version of one of these the designers of the standard designs are from German towns which implies Germany exists in Animal Crossing
I turned on my 3DS last month to get the Welcome Amiibo update in New Leaf before the e-shop closed, and I actually can't remember my town name. Maybe I actually am the mysterious mayor of aaa.
My favorite of these was the game cube, and sending in fossils to the faraway museum. I totally forgot about that. But remember getting so excited getting the fossils back. Loved getting the whole museum filled up nice. So much nostalgia. :)
Halfway into this video, and so far, there's no actual lore. It's just, "A villager says this, so that might mean something." Dude, we know this stuff. Anyone who's read the dialogue knows this stuff. "There are TV shows that the animals watch" isn’t exactly deep lore so much as it's a fun bit of world-building... And again, it's dialogue that pretty much everyone has read at some point. There's deeper lore in this comment section than in this video.
If you haven't already made one, can we get a video about the history of either unused content or characters who don't show up in latter games? Or maybe one on the evolution of town decorating or comparing villagers personalities between games?
I think in new leaf If u have Amiibos u can get special characters , I don’t see anybody talk about it but my sister has some splatoon characters Callie and Marie and the wolf from zelda in her game I believe some other exclusives as well but I’m not sure
Honestly, i think the city in…city folk, is the same city that Sable keeps mentioning. She even SAYS the words “City Folk”! Is….Is that what we call “Foreshadowing”? I don’t know.
The maglev one made me so upset because I thought it was a dumb joke about magic Mike not trains. I love trains and knowing it flew over my head just as the trains levitate is upsetting. I do try to track the TV its fun to watch the lil shows!
My understanding was animal crossings games take place in dark world from LoZ Link to the past. Just like how all the monsters are the warped versions of evil people, the AC games take place in another part of the world and all animals are happy reflections of good people. Remember Link became a bunny. And in wildwood he is a wolf villager and Gannon is a pig villager.
19:20 Reminds me of "Isabelle Ruined Everything," where the villager leaves for Smash Bros and comes back to a literal riot happening outside the mayor's office. Because Isabelle banned bass (the type of fish).
She's pretty much what someone would consider a "full time streamer". At first when she was shown off i thought she was going to be a Vtuber and the real her was hidden away, but she exists like that lol.
being an ugly fatass myself, and someone who had been called "this thing" for the majority of my life, i genuinely appreciate how much time and energy you've put into tearing this one "joke" type down. it's heartwarming, and also you are hilarious. almost makes me want to watch archer, too.
Ngl, I use the obscure things like this to flesh out my AU. Like I remember one time Cherry saying something about how the island is basically a graveyard because of the fossils, and something about ghost dinos. What do I do? I make Blather's life harder by saying some of the fossils in the museum are actively haunted. But because its a mismatch of multiple different bones of a single species (like...all the fossil parts of a Trex aren't from the exact same one) the spirits basically conglomerate together to form a whole new consciousness, and spirit. Maybe a bit of "Night at the Museum" type shenanigans because why not? I have fun.
One thing I liked about ACNL and other old AC games was the plethora of Nintendo-themed items. For example, all the things you could get with fortune cookies and the special Wii U, 3DS and Amiibo item sets that could only be obtained by playing very well on your 3DS or Wii U in-game. The only Nintendo-related items I know of in NH are the Mario set (which is always openly available to buy) and the Switch consoles. Nothing special to achieving them, just buy them with bells. Kinda feels less special. And dang it, I think most of us just want to be able to have all the cool items from Mario, Zelda, Star Fox, Nintendogs, Pikmin, etc. In the newest game. Is that too much to ask for? Lol
I love that they came up with a show that makes no sense just for a pun about "off the rails". But also I just remembered we have a show about anthropomorphic trains in real life. So I guess it might be similar to Thomas.
"Throwing" pottery is actually a genuine term for creating ceramics-- an artist may describe something as having been thrown on the wheel, but that doesn't mean they chucked it at something. :P
I wish the next animal crossing would be a metropolis, with travelling merchants and shops, jobs (construction, cafe, restaurant) alongside characters, city, countryside, suburb, beaches, parks, woods, old town district, districts in general, customizable public buildings, new fruits and vegs, new trees and plants, travelling characters and citizens, house customization (rooms, floors, railings, shapes, heights etc), traffic systems, islands, flats for special characters (such as Tom Nook etc.), Lore and roles for characters, etc. Any other ideas 😊😉?
10:43 i'm a new player and named my town in new horizons Faraway as a OMORI reference....guess i'm being sent fossils from the first animal crossing game? LMAOOO
I once got a letter in a bottle in new leaf i think, that was addressed to either Timmy or Tommy from maybe an aunt who told them to shove an onion up their nose is they get sick. 😂
I feel like the thing with Isabelle leaving her old town after the mayor left for two years might be a subtle nod/reference to Isabelle Ruins Everything. lol

9:12 there's two book names that i think can possibly be potential references to real world things. turnip your enthusiasm may or may not be a nod to the tv show curb your enthusiasm, and way of the workbench made me immediately think of the manga way of the househusband, although these could also be considered extreme stretches i think lmao
OMG I CAN ADD SOMETHING COOL! I'm currently at 10 minutes. I don't remember if it was Wild World or New Leaf (I think WW) but in the German version of one of these the designers of the standard designs are from German towns which implies Germany exists in Animal Crossing
OMG true I remember this too and was expecting them to have the same thing in English with big US towns lmao so is that only in German?😹
*Joe Pesci is pronounced Peshi, not Pesky btw!
I turned on my 3DS last month to get the Welcome Amiibo update in New Leaf before the e-shop closed, and I actually can't remember my town name. Maybe I actually am the mysterious mayor of aaa.
My town was called Melon and I'll never forget it because I somehow started with Apple and Coco
My favorite of these was the game cube, and sending in fossils to the faraway museum.
I totally forgot about that.
But remember getting so excited getting the fossils back.
Loved getting the whole museum filled up nice. So much nostalgia. :)
“downtown” Abbey 🤣🤣🤣
That got me
Halfway into this video, and so far, there's no actual lore. It's just, "A villager says this, so that might mean something." Dude, we know this stuff. Anyone who's read the dialogue knows this stuff. "There are TV shows that the animals watch" isn’t exactly deep lore so much as it's a fun bit of world-building... And again, it's dialogue that pretty much everyone has read at some point. There's deeper lore in this comment section than in this video.
Joe Pesci's name is pronounced, "Peh-shee". You're welcome.
9:09 The best part about this is Nan mentioned reading a book called Gyroids 2.0 (not on the list), meaning there is more than 48.
If you haven't already made one, can we get a video about the history of either unused content or characters who don't show up in latter games? Or maybe one on the evolution of town decorating or comparing villagers personalities between games?
I think in new leaf If u have Amiibos u can get special characters , I don’t see anybody talk about it but my sister has some splatoon characters Callie and Marie and the wolf from zelda in her game I believe some other exclusives as well but I’m not sure
Honestly, i think the city in…city folk, is the same city that Sable keeps mentioning.
She even SAYS the words “City Folk”! Is….Is that what we call “Foreshadowing”? I don’t know.
The Pokémon one… that is either something so deep into the lore, or something so small and random, either way you have my attention
Pls don’t forget about villager braking the 4th wall on new horizon
Or other games where they say they play a game that is similar to animal crossing 😂
Why are we a human when literally everyone else is an animal?
You should definitely get into the theories! My personal favourite is the purgatory theory
Because humans are animals too?
The maglev one made me so upset because I thought it was a dumb joke about magic Mike not trains. I love trains and knowing it flew over my head just as the trains levitate is upsetting.
I do try to track the TV its fun to watch the lil shows!
My understanding was animal crossings games take place in dark world from LoZ Link to the past. Just like how all the monsters are the warped versions of evil people, the AC games take place in another part of the world and all animals are happy reflections of good people. Remember Link became a bunny. And in wildwood he is a wolf villager and Gannon is a pig villager.
Great video but just between us, beeth is so in right now and beth is dead (16:30)
Special interests never die, I don't care that it's not popular anymore
19:20
Reminds me of "Isabelle Ruined Everything," where the villager leaves for Smash Bros and comes back to a literal riot happening outside the mayor's office. Because Isabelle banned bass (the type of fish).
I checked on new leaf two weeks ago… I’m trying to start playing to regularly again
For your information, Iono in Pokémon isn't just a reference to streamers, it seems more like a full on jab at them
She's pretty much what someone would consider a "full time streamer". At first when she was shown off i thought she was going to be a Vtuber and the real her was hidden away, but she exists like that lol.
Really? She seems almost as awful as real big-shot streamers especially Vtubers
She's a streamer idol
being an ugly fatass myself, and someone who had been called "this thing" for the majority of my life, i genuinely appreciate how much time and energy you've put into tearing this one "joke" type down. it's heartwarming, and also you are hilarious. almost makes me want to watch archer, too.
Are you doing okay, friend?? I'm so sorry to hear that. You deserve to be treated with kindness and respect.
are we glazing over that dolts is not short for adults? XD
7:47 RODNEY! :D I'm so happy to see my boy made the cover of a Ms. Nintendique magazine. ^_^
"Maglevs in Love'. Trains being in relationships? Anyone heard of the musical 'Starlight Express'? 😂
They really should have nes and snes games available in New horizons available if you have the online already.
6:17 my headcanon has always been that this is Isabelle before taking her ‘dream job’
Sometimes on your TV in ACNH, you can see some scenes at Isengard from Fellowship of the Ring. 😮
17:39
She mentions FPS
does that mean first person shooters are canon in animal crossing? That is actually hilarious
Ngl, I use the obscure things like this to flesh out my AU.
Like I remember one time Cherry saying something about how the island is basically a graveyard because of the fossils, and something about ghost dinos.
What do I do? I make Blather's life harder by saying some of the fossils in the museum are actively haunted. But because its a mismatch of multiple different bones of a single species (like...all the fossil parts of a Trex aren't from the exact same one) the spirits basically conglomerate together to form a whole new consciousness, and spirit.
Maybe a bit of "Night at the Museum" type shenanigans because why not?
I have fun.
The museum that looks at the fossils is the museum in the city by the university Blathers used to study at
The happy home designer thing definitely feels like it was supposed to be a sort of pscho mantis thing that didn't work out for one reason or another
These are all really cool!
What about all the Villager's with joke names based on food or something else?
Pate (Duck)
Elmer (Horse)
There are so many and it is surprisingly morbid 😂
I have a game idea so you're an animal crossing villager let's say sherb and you have to try and escape AAAAA
One thing I liked about ACNL and other old AC games was the plethora of Nintendo-themed items. For example, all the things you could get with fortune cookies and the special Wii U, 3DS and Amiibo item sets that could only be obtained by playing very well on your 3DS or Wii U in-game. The only Nintendo-related items I know of in NH are the Mario set (which is always openly available to buy) and the Switch consoles. Nothing special to achieving them, just buy them with bells. Kinda feels less special. And dang it, I think most of us just want to be able to have all the cool items from Mario, Zelda, Star Fox, Nintendogs, Pikmin, etc. In the newest game. Is that too much to ask for? Lol
I love that they came up with a show that makes no sense just for a pun about "off the rails". But also I just remembered we have a show about anthropomorphic trains in real life. So I guess it might be similar to Thomas.
The AC lore is always interesting
How is the maglevs in love thing obscure? Tammi talks about it every time I see her.
you can really tell the animal crossing team had so much fun making up all these fake references.
"Throwing" pottery is actually a genuine term for creating ceramics-- an artist may describe something as having been thrown on the wheel, but that doesn't mean they chucked it at something. :P
“Throwing” pottery is the process of shaping it on a wheel
I haven't played New Leaf since Hans left after I took a week-long break.. he was my favorite villager and it just wasn't the same afterwards
I will like the finding your true catch phrase is a reference to tomodachi life
Ehhh that's a stretch as catchphrases are a really broad concept
1:54 THAT VOICE CRACK WAS INSANE
19:25 i actually still play it at least ones a week since it's my favorite animal crossing game
The original Animal Crossing has a school desk that has "Joey + Mallary" scribbled on it, sygnifying a canon relationship between those two
After this video, I know more about animal crossing than I know about school
I wish the next animal crossing would be a metropolis, with travelling merchants and shops, jobs (construction, cafe, restaurant) alongside characters, city, countryside, suburb, beaches, parks, woods, old town district, districts in general, customizable public buildings, new fruits and vegs, new trees and plants, travelling characters and citizens, house customization (rooms, floors, railings, shapes, heights etc), traffic systems, islands, flats for special characters (such as Tom Nook etc.), Lore and roles for characters, etc. Any other ideas 😊😉?
14:15 I remember I saw him talk about vicious vole Vinnie it was funny.
These were pretty known lol. My man's just skimmed wiki and reddit for his content lol
So what, lmao? He's just making innocent fun content
@@EfaEfaBanefaReddit and wiki doesn't have anything else to offer for animal crossing except for the basics, of course this is a problem.
@@themarioking7127 🤓
@@EfaEfaBanefa wrong use of the 🤓 emoji 🤓
14:45
Don looks like he sounds like Cleveland fron Family Guy
The show about Maglev Mike totally brings Thomas the Tank Engine to mind, lol.
10:43
i'm a new player and named my town in new horizons Faraway as a OMORI reference....guess i'm being sent fossils from the first animal crossing game? LMAOOO
DownTOWN Abbey? Ooooh haaaaiiiil noooo!
They should make the game so you can send letters back to your mom!
I hope in the next game they focus a lot more on world building.
No lie. I thought maglev mike was like magic mike 😮💨
I once got a letter in a bottle in new leaf i think, that was addressed to either Timmy or Tommy from maybe an aunt who told them to shove an onion up their nose is they get sick. 😂
MAGLEV MIKE IS A JOKE ABOUT TRAINS?????? holy hell, my world's done been rocked.
A couple of days ago my Chadder and Cherry were talking about reels and getting cancelled 😂
My brothers new leaf town is probably named AAAAA and he has not played new leaf in a year or so.
0:03 best part
Can u pls do anther 100 days video in anther Animal Crossing game?
In March and maybe April 2020, idk, there were a broadcast on the tv mentioning the Covid lmao
Nice video!
I feel like the thing with Isabelle leaving her old town after the mayor left for two years might be a subtle nod/reference to Isabelle Ruins Everything. lol
Here’s something you might not know…. There’s an animal crossing movie! And it’s on Facebook for some reason
