Bud

Bud (グラさん, Gura-san; Mr. Gura) is a jock lion villager in the, who appears in all games except for the very first installment,. From his debut in to, he is an islander.

Appearance
Bud wears pink-rimmed sunglasses with dark lenses, so his eye color is unknown, but, if looked from at an angle, one can see that Bud has small, black eyes with very small white pupils. Bud's eyes can also be seen more clearly in and, if he wears other glasses in place of his usual sunglasses. His skin tone is darker than that of his mane, complementing his stereotypical "surfer-dude" appearance as well as wearing the Blue Aloha Shirt in and Flowery Shirt after being on the island, which continues the theme of his "surfer-dude" appearance. Strangely enough, despite this look, which implies that Bud is a lazy villager, Bud is instead a Jock villager.

Personality
Budd has a jock personality, which means he will have a keen interest in sport and fitness, making him appear competitive and in some cases rude when talking to other villagers, usually criticizing their fitness. He will appear slow-witted and absent-minded when talking about deep, meaningful things. He will get along well with peppy villagers, but get confused by the choice of lifestyle followed by lazy villagers, who appear opposite to the jock personality. He may offend and upset snooty and cranky villagers.

House
In the first Animal Crossing, Bud's house has an island look.

His house in Wild World and City Folk is beach themed - with beach chairs, beach tables, a red boom box, a ukulele, and a surfboard; for wallpaper he has Tropical Vista, and Tropical Ground for carpet. When he has a radio, it has "K.K. Ska" playing on it.

In, Bud's house keeps the same beach-themed appearance.
