    In the actual game lore of Tom Nook, he used to be homeless. He started this job at a young age and slowly rose to the top to where he stands today.
    The Nooklings, his “nephews”, were actually orphans that he adopted, which is why they always referred him as “fearless leader” instead of uncle whenever you talk to them.
    The money you give to Tom is not kept. He uses it to build homes and such. He never keeps any of the money. A lot of this was revealed in the Animal Crossing guidebook. I can’t remember which one though. (I think City Folk?)
    He wasn’t originally straight forward though. In the original GameCube game, he would tease the player and say that if they don’t pay him back, he’ll have his raccoon goons to confront them. It’s to, you know, “start a fire under the player’s butt”, reference of that kettle story.
    He’s still kind of a trickster but even then, he wasn’t interested in harming the player.

      Also his original shop in the first game is said by some villagers to have been Tortimer's old garden shed, so he literally worked his way up from being given a garden shed by the mayor to handing out housing to others and allowing them to work his way up.

    left to the city to start a business with Redd
    Redd left with ALL the bells
    Tom Nook returned home, had to start from scratch (wich is why Nook's Cranny is made of wood & metal (+ in the og N64 game, it is shown that Tom sleeps in his store))
    adopts Timmy & Tommy and teaches them
    teaches his methods to YOU
    even gives someone else who got tricked by Redd a job (Lyle)

    I like how some people who call Tom Nook "evil" are the type that hope to get everything for nothing. They want to get a house and not pay for it, they want to sell their junk to the shop but not pay/work for that privilege. In Animal Crossing, you show your broke ass self in a town with no money and instead of walking around the town like a hobo and begging for change Tom Nook gives you a house in exchange for work.
    Same with New Horizons, who actually go around on cruise with no money? I guess deserted island life means free of cash?

    Having never played an Animal Crossing game before New Horizons, I had always heard the jokes that Tom Nook was some sort of loan shark. Color me surprised when I meet him and discover that he's actually a nice hard-working guy just trying to make an honest living in the world. Does he use you to do a bunch of his labor at times? Most definitely but he also gives you HUGE loans to build and expand not just your home but an entire island as well as a way to go to other islands for more resources. Considering that he doesn't charge you interest on your loans but DOES pay you interest for keeping your bells in a savings account I'd say he's better than most capitalists in the real world today as he encourages saving and rewards your hard work.

    The fox having a good reputation in Japan is a bit of an understatement. While there are many stories about foxes being evil tricksters, they are also the messengers of the shinto god/goddess (gender shifts for kami between eras) Inari. Inari is the most widely venerated kami in Shinto, with most shrines being partially dedicated to her. If you've ever seen a red gate in front of a shrine, that's specifically for Inari (the red ones). There are some larger Inari shrines that also have kitsune guardians at the entrance, instead of more traditional lion-dogs. Red just happens to be a more nefarious one.

    Well as a native Japanese I’ll say it is very unlikely that the -kichi part of his name is from “kechi”. -kichi is a common (albeit archaic) suffix for a male name. If you were to combine “tanuki” and “kechi” I’m sure that will make “tanukechi”.

You are right of course; kechi and kichi don't sound alike and so it may not be true, but maybe to some fans it seems like it's true because Tom Nook seems very stingy! (Personally I think he is pretty generous to lend money to a total stranger. But what do you think?)

    I can't wait until we get another tom nook origins in the next animal crossing 10 years from now because people still think he is evil and greedy.

    Some people like Grant from Treesicle think Tom Nook is a “no good corporate pig. Well, racoon.”

    “Renegating” isn’t a word. It’s “reneging.” Super annoying.

    List of Tom Nook's good qualities:
    No interests in loans and mortgages (can be a bit unfair, but hey, he needs to run a business and feed and take care of Timmy and Tommy, and both are definitely not cheap).
    Good with money.
    Takes good care of Timmy and Tommy after adopting him.
    Donates money to charity, including an orphanage that loves him so much, they named a wing in their building after him.
    Actually cares for you despite his morbid jokes in the original GameCube game.
    Gives Lyle (a former conman, who happens to be an otter) a better job and a chance to redeem from being a criminal working for Crazy Redd, AND Lyle eventually ends up liking his new job.

      As for his business rival Crazy Redd, I can also list his bad qualities:
      Sells forgeries to people. Any real artworks were probably stolen from somewhere.
      Greedy (he IS a scammer, after all).
      Corrupt and morally dubious.
      Only cares about himself and getting filthy rich.
      Rips off his clients and customers by sweet-talking to them, referring to them as "cousins" despite his secret dirty business intentions.
      Treated Tom Nook like crap when he used to work for Redd, and ran away with ALL of Nook's money during Nook's days as his intern (I'm pretty sure Redd never paid Nook ANYTHING, except maybe cheap food/snacks/candy).
