An extra wayNintendodecided to inject extra personality into conversations was to add the ability to give each resident a catchphrase or greeting to open each topic. The greeting function has developed a comedic reputation as it allows you to put outlandish phrases in the animal’s mouths, which can be used to heighten personality traits.

I sent you an invite to my party

Thanks for all the support

I love what you’ve done with your hair

There’s something I want to admit…

Can I have your autograph?

How does my magazine pose look?

I can’t wait for K.K’s new album

Do you think I’m cool?

The energetic personality depicted in these animals is overly friendly and excitable, which can be to the detriment of the cynical villagers on any given island. Peppy villagers are very socially conscious and oftenworry about their likeability, especially with the player character.

They love movies and music to the point that celebrity culture ends up taking over their life. This mimics the traits of an obsessed fan or popular girl archetype.

You still owe me for last night

Pinch, punch, first of the month

Heh, that’s pretty funny

Love you really

Wanna catch a movie sometime?

Hey, I’m just messing with you

We should hang out more often

Haha, made you look

Long time no see

Playful and tomboyish, these protective personalities are pretty chill to hang around with, even if they like to tease their friends in a light-hearted manner from time to time.

When talking about themselves and others, Sisterly villagers very honest and to-the-point, which is refreshing for the majority of island folk, but they’re also not afraid to call out animals that put themselves before anyone else.

Well, well, well! Look who came crawling back

It’s always suuuuch a pleasure

Oh, it’s you again

I honestly don’t have time for this

I could be doing anything else right now

I’m not saying I hate you

Sorry, I didn’t notice you there

Do you mind scooching over a bit

I guess you’ll have to do

What is it? I haven’t got all day

Proper and posh, these villagers enjoy being the center of attention, starting rumors about others andtalking about the latest fashionsand trends.

Their exterior personalities can be a little unwieldy for most, but inside, they have a luxurious heart of gold that allows gossip to take a more wholesome direction. They do get on rather well with other upstanding citizens that they can share residents' secrets with.

Get off my lawn

Back in my day…

Why are mortgages so expensive nowadays?

Stop waving your arms already

Respect your elders

Let me turn my hearing aid up

What’s your fax number?

Stop with that racket

It’s very easy and pretty fun to annoy these unsociable critters. While they often have outside-the-box views when it comes to issues and opinions, most villagers can accept their differences and enjoy their difference in perspective, but excitable characters can be a bit much for the satisfied introvert to handle. These villagers perfectly capture the vibe of old, disgruntled characters in media.

Just sit back and relax

Make sure to take plenty of breaks

Stop stressing

Let me just rest my eyes for a minute

I’m not yawning

Where did I put my keys?

If anyone asks, I’m working

D’oh

(Studio audience starts cheering)

Drop down and give me 20

Oh you’re so on

Impressive skills

I don’t want to fight, well maybe a little

This is gonna be a pretty weight-y conversation

No pain, no gain

Just doing my daily run

Alright, team talk time

How was the game last night?

That was a close one

Obsessed with sports, jocks in Animal Crossing take on the stereotypical trait of being dumb. Their always on-the-go personality gels well with a lot of outgoing villagers, especially others that match the same level of energy.

They enjoy competing with their friends and forming playful rivalries to push everyone to try their hardest.

Well aren’t we looking good today

It’s the one and only

Isn’t it a glorious day

Lovely, as always

Must be your lucky day

I feel blessed

How do you improve on perfection?

What a fine day to look in the mirror

I love the way you’re looking at me
