Yū

"Hi, my name's Yu, I come from the nearby town, but I like to play here a lot."

- Yu

Yu (ゆう, Yū) is one of the main characters in, being the only male human. Yu changes his outfit daily; throughout the film he dressed as a ninja, in camoflauge, and as a snow bunny. He seems to be a reference on how in the games, a person could connect through Wi-Fi, so players from other towns can come visit their town. He does not live in Animal Village, but visits often. He loves to play with Alfonso by competing for collectibles such as fossils and bugs.
