Ankha is a snooty, cat villager in the Animal Crossing series, appearing in every game except Doubutsu no Mori and Animal Crossing: Wild World. She reappeared in Animal Crossing: City Folk. In Animal Crossing, she is an islander. Her name is based on the ankh, which is the Egyptian hieroglyphic character that reads "life." Her catchphrase relates to her arrogant "snooty" personality, by saying "me," and a sound a cat makes, "meow." Her Japanese catchphrase, Kufufu, is reference to the Pharaoh Khufu. Egyptians worshiped cats, and had a cat god, which may be where the idea for Ankha's design came from. As an islander in Animal Crossing, she has a fruit allergy. She loves cherries and is allergic to apples.

Alongside the other islanders, Ankha made her debut in Animal Crossing, and did not appear in the original Doubutsu no Mori. Additionally, since her debut, Ankha has become extremely popular in the ‘’Animal Crossing’’ fandom, enough to rival that of Goldie and Rosie, two other popular, iconic villagers, although her popularity has emerged as fan art, and not as merchandise like the previous two.

Characteristics

Appearance

Ankha PG.png

Ankha is a navy blue-and-gold-striped cat, with black eyeliner in the style of Egyptian royalty (black around the eyes, then wings out towards the outside of the eye). Her headgear was worn by Queen Cleopatra, the Hellenistic ruler of Egypt. She has a slightly different style in City Folk, where she lacks the normal pharaoh headdress, which was replaced with a head pendant, but it was changed back to a headdress in New Leaf. Like all female islanders, she initially wore a Red Aloha Shirt. In Animal Crossing: City Folk, she wears an Egyptian Outfit, and in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, her initial clothing is the Mummy Shirt.

Personality

Below is a brief description of the snooty personality. For more information, click here.

Ankha has a snooty personality, which means she will appear arrogant and snobbish towards the player and other villagers, but will appear friendly and nice in some discussions, provided they are mature and do not insult her lifestyle. She finds appearance important, and will get angry or upset if someone criticizes her sense of style or fitness, which means a conversation between her and a jock personality may leave either one upset or angry. Her attitude towards the player changes, as she begins to warm up to them, but she will still retain some arrogance and subtle rudeness. She may not get along with lazy villagers, due to their lifestyles - lazy villagers having a strong interest in food or relaxing, both of which will make her uncomfortable, angry, and upset when in conversation. She will upset peppy villagers, usually by gossiping about them, and finding small things to judge them on. She will get along well with normal, cranky, and other snooty villagers.

Fruit Allergy

As an islander, she is allergic to apples. Feeding her an apple will reduce the likelihood of her dropping money bags. She loves cherries.
