Ankha
Okay
What's odd is that Ankha has never been rude to my character in New Horizons. She certainly isn't upbeat like all the characters obsessed with working out but she comes across as more laid back than the other villagers on my island and also seems to spend the most time indoors (so I've learned how to craft a LOT of gold things from her).
I’ve never seen her craft a day in my life yet and I can never find her on my island 😂
Same
Agree. She’s always crafting, singing, watering flowers and even doing yoga with Julian, Sprinkle and Goldie. She’s really chill and she’s very nice to my character as well. I actually like her better in New Leaf. She was so sarcastic and funny. She’s besties with Goldie in both games.
Oh, that is because in new horizons they made the villagers nicer, so they wont tell you bad things
@@not_peppa3450 I think it’s a good thing, people had a bad time this year, they don’t need to be told they suck by their villagers. Maybe when COVID is over they’ll update more mean dialogue back.
when everyone never knew about how she turned famous in the wrong way
I am here to find out who she is. I clicked on the first video and it hit me like a wall of bricks
Let us unite
She became more cultured.
😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
In a few years nobody will remember that
You're gonna die laughing or shocked to what we did to Ankha in 2021

@@OniLordMiki Thanks
You'll be shocked when you discover it was long before 2021...
Yep they sure are lol
As an Egyptian I really want her on my island
Same brother
agreed💔 i love her too
I have her on my island she is sweet to me . I hope you find her!
I always wanted a cute Egyptian kitty
I want her on my isle
ankha actually makes a comment in the museum about the ancient cat ancestor as if she knew them in ancient times which is pretty cool
Ankha is one of my favorite snooty villagers. She’s quite active on my island. She’s always crafting, singing, watering flowers and even doing yoga with Julian, Sprinkle and Goldie. She’s really chill and she’s very nice to my character as well. I actually like her better in New Leaf. She was so sarcastic and funny. She’s besties with Goldie in both games.
Unlike Chops. I Tortured Him Until He Left TWO YEARS LATER And I Accidently Autofilled AND GOT CHOPS AGAIN-
@@Teddy_omg Another chops hater yay! I don't like him either, I recently got Chino to move in and kicked him out
Ah yes ankha, the animal crossing character that is lewded the most besides Isabelle
Imma gonna pretend I didn't see that... 🤮
We love you Teckworks!
PS: We need more Lolly hentai
I know rule 34 is a thing but I just don't get why people would corrupt something so cute and innocent.
@@nyanpirethecat2257 No, not Lolly! She's too pure!
FURRYS THAT'S ALL
I figured the stepped gold were bars of gold that referred to the wealth of the Pharaohs or something. Or maybe Ankha's great at smelting and that's her backup toilet.
My favourite villager is Poppy, BAR NONE.
KBABZ Poppy’s my fav too 😄
I'm pretty sure gold bars represent exactly what they are, gold bars. Not an ancient build. The pharaohs and royalty were rich. They had lots of gold. I think as a decoration in Ankha's house they represent wealth, especially since the snobs in Animal Crossing represent snobby rich people.
Out of all of what I seen in animal crossing it’s the golden toilet that’s in the corner of the room that raises the most questions.
came here to learn about ankha. learned about the origin of sothis's name instead
There is no escape from Fire Emblem. Embrace the Fire Emblem. Love the Fire Emblem. Or be destroyed by the Fire Emblem.
Quiver in fear!!!

This is a very interesting video. I'd also like to learn more about Coco. She may not seem that interesting, but I am interested in how she appears to be a ghost inhabiting her own Haniwa. I wonder if her wanting to be an astronaut has anything to do with Japanese funerary practices or beliefs or anything else Japanese? I know that her Japanese name, Yayoi, would fit with the theme of her being a ghost within her own Haniwa. "Yayoi" translates to, "new life," which could be taken as a reference to either reincarnation or, kinda fitting with Japanese mythology, a spirit possessing an object; much like a lot of Youkai; to "continue" their life. Given that her Haniwa shell appears to be the type that has her own body's ashes mixed in with the clay, one could also say that she's technically inhabiting a form of her own body. I am curious why she's a rabbit, though; if there's anything to do with any of that. All I can think of there is with her dream to be an astronaut, as the moon is commonly seen as having a rabbit seemingly inscribed on it; another big thing in Japan, as it appears in the Japanese sky like the rabbit is making mochi.
I want this so much, Coco is my favorite villager!
@@batmabel Same. Whitney's cool, too, I think, and I also like Bow and Meow. I unfortunately don't know much about very many of the villagers, though.
@@batmabel If you guys want an Origins story for Coco I'm happy to look into it. ^____^
Daniel Coffman I agree, I love my coco soooooo much
Bro, I'm completely ignoring the memes this character stars in, and I'm getting completely engrossed in this Ancient Egyption history
this is one of the reasons she is the best villager in animal crossing😫😫
Man, Ankha doesn't deserve that infamy she got recently.
fact, poor her.
Absolutely not. People think they can just do whatever they want on the internet, and there will be no repercussions. It's absolutely repulsive and disgusting behaviour, and I am appalled that anyone would think that it's appropriate or excusable. No one deserves to be objectified and disrespected in such a way, and it is my duty to speak out against this sort of bigotry and hatred because it is completely unacceptable and should not be tolerated for even one moment.
I would love to see background on Kabuki, I love him and would love to learn more about the Kabukis.
I would love that too!
Yea!
Yes so I saw the Zone animation like everyone else. Afterwards i was just curious as to why such a character existed in Animal Crossing, which I had never played.
I mean, she does really stick out. Good to see a video like this answers my questions.
He is the chosen one! He will save us all.
I hope you didn't see the uncensored one outside of youtube...that a whole different level of mental trauma:D
@@acatisfinetoo3018 Yes I did
FINALLY A VIDEO THAT ISNT PORN
i-
Dang..Glad I have Ankha in my island, This was actually very interesting to hear through out the whole thing
0:20 - “Heart of Gold”
Oh come on!
SRSLY
What a mysterious video, explaining the story of my favorite villager. My younger brother also loves her, making a tribute to a smart, beautiful and ancient cat.
This is really interesting looking forward to the next one I wish villagers would talk about their backgrounds more I know some of mine say little things here and there. But it would be fun to hear more about their family etc.
I feel so bad for ankha you probably know why and also I hope she goes to the moon when her dream comes true.
I’m just trying to figure out when she decided to control that villager
*Rule34:*
Well how about that...
Our girl isn't just the queen of our kingdom but also a true goddess!
No.
@@BigB34n YESS!
@@notinksansanymore7672 no
@@BigB34n YES
imagine the smell of that golden toilet
2:46 I just realized she’s annoyed from being talked to too much
Egyptian cat, what I need to finish my collection of villagers
At least she got her clothes on in this video
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Now she makes Sandy Marton popular.
Thank you for the background on Anhka. I was introduced to her through the bazillion meme videos she is in. I will have to look her up if I ever get the chance to play.
Ankha was one of my favorites from the original Animal Crossing. She was an extremely rare villager. Actually not a villager but an island MPC. It was lucky to get her. I was particular about my world. It had to be a certain way and one time I decided to try for both my ideal land and Ankha as my island character. Took me almost a year, lol. But I have my favorite world with my favorite island MPC that I occasionally still visit.
Yeah.....
*We all know why u came back*
Yeah we are all in the *zone*
@@gamemassacre1251 hahahah
:,(
@@gamemassacre1251 bruh......
@@michaelsteiner5265 what made you come back?
Wasn’t Ankha Cleopatra’s cat, making her immortal too as hinted in her E-Reader card or something?
you forgot to talk about ankhas card, in the back it says
Ankha's face shines with beauty and the sparkle of youth, but she claims was a cat in Cleopatra's court. That would make her 3,000 years old!
So this is so good that you're doing this. I knew a lot of this, but I REALLY hope you continue doing videos like this for spreading knowledge and education through video games for younger viewers. Shunning the idea that not everything need sto be mindless violence, and gameplay that has zero substance. Keep up with the series, much appreciated!
Thanks! These videos are fun to make. ^___^
Oh cool Egypt cat story, how enlightening like Ra
Lmao nice ☀️
Underrated comment Also is your profile picture Pain with Yugi’s Hair
My favorite is Punchy, but there's not much to say there... he's just a chill, sleepy boi who's got the munchies.
Also my town is desert themed, so I've got Ankha and Lucky :3
Ankha: treat me like a queen!
Me, coming back from the french revolution times: Bring upon the mighty guillotine!
Okay, thats a bit harsh, I still adore this character. :D
but i really thought that she have a big role from Egyptian gods and goddess
i really think that she is also a goddess to that have a role like the other gods and goddess
but for me i think a perfect role for her if she is a goddess {will be the} goddess of knowledge cuz she can read ancient words
Therapist: don’t worry, t posing ankha doesn’t exist.
T posing ankha: 1:11
Thanks for this beautiful lesson about my 2nd favorite villager. Im really grateful.
These videos are gona blow up because of lewded Ankha and it becoming a meme
Ceasing to exist doesn't seem like much of a punishment.
I thought the Eye of Ra was a mirror image of the Eye of Horus, I didn't know they were interchangeable.
Her birthday is also the equinox!! amazing
Everyone’s favorite character
Been watching GameXplain since the pic of the day from Smash 4 and this is the first time I see an approach like this.
I liked it a lot! Hope you guys bring more "educational" style videos!
*Tower Power Pokey plays in the distance*
@Connor Santos HhHhHhHhMmMmMmMm
Apparently, on her AC wiki entry, it says that she claims she was a cat in Cleopatra's court, making her 3000 years old. Thanks Vannamelon!
Now....is the dance Egyptian?
We know why we're all here.
Ankha is so cute, I hope no one does anything crazy to her
They already did👀
I've always liked her she's nice
Now I feel bad for getting rid of Ankha
But I want my island to be original so I did it anyway
I wish snooty and cranky villagers wouldn't be so nice in new horizons, I kind of miss the sassy comments from new Leaf haha
These are so cool!! I’m obsessed with these videos. I hope you feature more videos like this.
Thank you! Happy to do more if you have suggestions. ^____^
Meg Sullivan i actually downloaded your podcast and I loved the fire emblem series you did. I think a really cool video, if you are interested of course, would be how each pokemon region is related to a place in real life. I know Unova is based off of New York and obviously the first gens were based on the Japanese islands. Would be cool if you related different areas to actual places! Just a suggestion though. I can’t wait for more podcasts! I binged them in a day haha
I’m amazed at how the comment section isn’t flooded because of the “special” video
Same here lol
This video is too wholesome to mention that other thing...
The Egyptian painted their eyes with ashs. This protected the eyes from scabys. Ashs are treatment for that.
I like Ankha, she’s cute and I liker her Egyptian theme. I’ve always kinda felt drawn to Egyptian Stuff.
3:36 Well we know where Sothis got her name from.
As if Fire Emblem hadn't already borrowed names from different myths and mythologies over the years already. But yeah, pretty cool to know
Looks like there's something untold in this video....
That's actually really educational and wholesome:)
THE THIRD TABLE HAS GOLD BARS NOT A REPLICA OF A TEMPLE!
11:29 It appears that Ankha watched "They Live" (1988).
Ankha sometimes in the game: ALL HAIL THE GREAT BLUE SKY
Too much watching Ankha's 'dancing' videos, RUclips recommended me this.
I feel unclean knowing how this ended up in my recommended
Very awesome! Love the video! My favorite villager is Tiffany.
This was very interesting, please make more videos like this!
I'm no fan of animal crossing and ankhas design isn't my faveret but I do like egyptology and its roll in the development of civilisation.
So I find your video interesting not just for ankha but for the info on egyptology in general its quite fasinating.
The on cute, innocent and classic cat
Ankha’s name means untold
Thank you for this great history! This was so much fun and interesting.
God I hate wisp when you accidentally start his quest
I like mythology and I like Ankhs. You are so cool showing that she is more then a gossiping cat
Ankha is an amazing character. Great design, concept and extremely adorable. It is a real shame that for now on she will mostly be associated with that nsfw video. I hope I am wrong and that it doesn't last forever, after all, she was already pretty popular before the video.
Shes a fan favorite in the community that actually knows who she is, it’s healing
@@candy_ribbons cool. That is nice to hear.
Who is watching after that vid--
HMMMM
WHAT VID...... I....... I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAGAGGAHAGAGAGAGAGAGGSGAGAGAFA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YEAH WE DONT KNOW AHAHAHAH
Who here in 2021 after the ankha zone?
Bruh
😐
As a big ankha fan myself this is instantly added 2 my liked videos along with :
* Villager hunting but I find a queen instead
* Ankha and Raymond sing K.K. disco
* Ankhas Plight
*Ankha falls into a pitfall trap ( not marshal
*Ankha the cat
* Animal crossing meet ankha
I LOVE THAT EGYPTIAN CAT
I wonder how many kings found Ankha to be queen fit for the throne.
I like how many Villagers are based on historical figures or civilizations. Like Vic or Cyranos.
They forgot to say about dat bouncy house
@•°.Spooky_Stoopy.°• bruh, this is obviously a joke comment tho
But wasn't there the Ankha Ride before the remake. I mean, it could still mention it.
Minus 8 favorite lady
I was looking for something like that...
And Teckworks
Mmmm yes, yes, indeed
Allegedly, his favorite is Bonbon
He's only worked with Ankha due to her popularity
But that's Peach...
I wish they brought back the rudeness from the old games. Everyone's too nice in this game, even the grumpy ones.
Who’s here while Ankha is trending on tiktok for very… interesting reasons
Anyone else come from Ankha Zone?
Now I just feel terrible after what I did last night
😢 😢 😢
This is very cute and wholesome
I’m looking for comments about the dancing video
She's been trending recently on here.
😐😑😐 yeah...
@@TarboGreatApe TikTok is stealing personal information for the Chinese government while also being the cringiest app.
Hmmm I wonder why it could be trending
I love Ankha. My favorite villager ❤️ I’m so happy she moved to my Island. However I think the exterior of her house is ugly lol.
Patrick agree. I thought that her house exterior would be a bit more fancy.
Very well made and fascinating video!
I was hoping she’d do another video here!
How the games depicts her: A fat retired pharaoh cat in her 30s.
How the community sees her: A underaged hot cat girl with funny dance.
In her 3000s
the golden toilet might be reference for an art piece that i forgot who made it
wow...scales...now that you mention...it just randomly popped up...in islam there is also mention of scale in judgement day...but what I know islam has not started based around Math, it was Commerce...so scale is just a good pun to through around if someone want to talk about the FINAL JUDGEMENT OF LIFE and stuffs...pretty clever...
came here cosue i saw a ankha tiktik song is popular now lol
So Ankha being good at math is a stretch, but her wanting to go into space isn't?
I love these stories I need to start listening to your podcast!
0:33
ohohohoho, not anymore.
Ankha's house go bouncy bouncy oo yeaa
As someone who loves Ankha (not just because of the “stuff” surrounding her), I like this video
I feel so lucky to have Ankha in my Island.
You are absolutely blessed. Cherish her, she will return the favour.
You’ll never believe how she got fame man……
Ah yes...Ankha (Nile in Japan)...the most popular and beloved AC villager who her loyal servants (fans) hail her as a godly idol of anthro hentais.
