Uchi is taken from the personal pronoun these characters use in the Japanese version.}}) [[villagers]] are a type of female character introduced in {{NL}}. Prior to {{NH|short|nolink}}, this personality was most commonly referred to by the English speaking community as the Japanese word "Uchi", which refers to the personal pronoun these characters use in the Japanese version. | |

− | + | The personality is similar to the [[Cranky]] [[Villager#Personalities|personality]] in previous ''Animal Crossing'' games, coming across as blunt, rude, and belittling to others, but also caring and empathetic deep down. They are thus considered the female counterpart to [[cranky]] [[villager]]s. They wake up at 11:00 AM in {{NL|short}}, or 9:30 AM in {{NH|short}}, and go to bed at 3:00 AM. There are currently 24 sisterly [[villager]]s, 5 of which appeared in the previous games with a different personality; sisterly is thus the least common personality. | |

− | + | Sisterly [[villager]]s are often depicted as stubborn, rude, and easily offended at first glance, in a similar manner to [[cranky]] [[villager]]s, who also have a hostile behaviour. Sisterly [[villager]]s also speak with gruff, accented voices, similar to the deep voices [[cranky]] [[villager]]s use, in reference to their "tough" attitudes. As a result of this, they are seen as a sort of tomboy, as they occasionally talk about enjoying fighting, and express an interest in participating in 'turf wars'. In addition to this, they might give the player a [[petition]] called 'Tomboys Are People Too' which further supports this. Despite this violent exterior, however, sisterly [[villager]]s are kind and empathetic deep down. They may act like an older sister when befriended, and may even give the [[player]] [[medicine]] (or in {{NH|short}}, the [[DIY]] recipe for it) if talked to after being stung by [[Bee]]s or [[Wasp]]s. | |
− | + | In {{HHD}} sisterly [[villager]]s lose most of the empathetic and sisterly charm of their personality to embrace instead a more tomboyish, tough, mischievous and sarcastic inclination. As such, more than the "big sister" stereotype, they seem more akin to a somewhat watered-down image of the Japanese [[wikipedia:Sukeban|sukeban]], or "boss girl". Natural partygoers and thrill-seekers, sisterly [[villager]]s despise boredom and show little concerns for social conventions - eager to shout while waiting for food in the [[Restaurant|restaurant]] and presenting themselves as the classic loafer and cocky student at [[School|school]], or joshingly asking the player to switch roles while working at the [[Shop|shops]]. However, they still show traces of their caring nature, worrying for the player's health and questioning their busy schedule if talked in their homes. | |
− | + | In the Japanese version of the series, sisterly villagers speak with the [[wikipedia:Kansai dialect|Kansai region's dialect]], which is distinguished from the standard Japanese dialect by elongated vowels and differing pitch intonations (emulated in their [[Animalese]] vocals). The Kansai dialect also has somewhat different grammar from standard Japanese, such as the usage of "uchi" as a personal pronoun; the English localization replicates this by having sisterly villagers use slang such as abbreviating "-ing" to "-in'" and "them" to "'em". | |

− | + | Sisterly [[villager]]s find it easy to get along with most [[villager]]s: [[Peppy]] and [[Normal]] [[villager]]s will admire sisterly [[villager]]s and see them as an older sister, and often they have common interests. [[Jock]] [[villager]]s will also admire how rigid and tough they are, allowing them to get along easily as well. Sisterly [[villager]]s will also express admiration for [[smug]] and [[snooty]] [[villager]]s for their elegant lifestyles, but may come into conflict with them if the wrong things are said. [[Cranky]] [[villager]]s will directly clash with sisterly [[villager]]s, due to both personalities being strongly opinionated. If their opinions match, however, sisterly [[villager]]s can become close friends with a [[cranky]] [[villager]] due to both having hostile personalities. | |

− | * | + | *With a total of 14 species, sisterly is the personality with the most amount of species that have never received said personality. These include the [[Alligator]], [[Anteater]], [[Bird]], [[Cow]], [[Duck]], [[Eagle]], [[Elephant]], [[Hamster]], [[Hippo]], [[Lion]], [[Mouse]], [[Octopus (species)|Octopus]], [[Tiger]], and [[Wolf]]. <!--Please do not add the Bull here. Bulls are more-or-less meant to be the male equivalent of the Cow species, and as sisterly is a female-exclusive personality, Bulls should be excluded by default.--> |
− | + | In {{Animal crossing new leaf}} if a sisterly villager wants to move, they may mention turf wars. This may be a reference to splatoon, but considering new leaf came out in 2012 and splatoon in 2015most likely not. | |
