Cranky villagers typically act quite bitter, rude, and stubborn, being angered easily if things are not going their way (hence the name "cranky"). They are also, generally, out-of-touch with social trends, making them generally unpopular with the [[peppy]] villagers. They are all deep-voiced (unlike every other villager) and many have frowns.

Cranky villagers typically act quite bitter, rude, and stubborn, being angered easily if things are not going their way (hence the name "cranky"). They are also, generally, out-of-touch with social trends, making them generally unpopular with the [[peppy]] villagers. They are all deep-voiced (unlike every other villager) and many have frowns. In {{PG}} and {{DnMe+}}, the cranky islanders [[Flash]], O'Hare, and Rowan, alongside Curlos, [[Frank]], and [[Weldon]] in e+, act charming, polite, and gentlemanlike, if a bit arrogant, in a similar manner to the [[smug]] personality introduced in {{NL}}. However, only Curlos and O'Hare return with this personality.
 
 
In {{PG}} and {{DnMe+}}, the cranky [[Islander|islanders]] of [[Animal Island]], which include [[Flash]], [[O'Hare]] (until {{NL|short}}), and [[Rowan]] (until {{WW|short}}), alongside [[Curlos]] (until {{NL|short}}), [[Frank]], and [[Weldon]] in ''e+'', act suave, polite, romantic, and gentlemanlike, if a bit arrogant, in a similar manner to the [[smug]] personality introduced in {{NL}}, often trying to woo the player, though are slightly more old-fashioned. However, only Curlos and O'Hare return with this personality.
 
  
 
The cranky personality has softened significantly in {{NL|short}} and {{NH|short}}. Though their bitter, rude, and stubborn aspects remain, and they have the tendency to complain about aches and pains in their aging bodies, they gain an understanding and caring side, giving the player the impression that they secretly have a heart of gold. Instead of frequently raging at the player and other characters, and speaking in all-caps often, they give fatherly advice and are welcoming when the player enters their house. Though still being rather impolite, they have also traded in straightforward insults for lighthearted sarcasm, such as joking about their "sunny disposition" when the weather is nice outside. In {{NL|short|nolink}}, cranky villagers gain a signature laugh, "Gahaha," which they usually exclaim after making a joke or sarcastic remark. However, in {{NH|short|nolink}}, their signature laugh occurs noticeably less often.

Although they may appear unfriendly, if the player talks to them, does errands for them and sends them letters for long enough, they will eventually begin to open up and will be more friendly with the player. In {{PG}}, a cranky character will often speak to the player about their niece after becoming friends. Also, in {{CF|short|nolink}}, they may say this to another cranky villager. When a cranky villager gets sad, they will say that they live in a cold world. They can usually grow to be close friends if the player meets them often and sends them letters with presents attached.

In {{NL}}, the cranky villagers' unfriendly demeanor has been toned down, thus making them easier to befriend.

**Additionally, no [[alligator]], [[chicken]], [[elephant]], [[horse]], [[kangaroo]], [[lion]], or [[sheep]] villagers initially had the cranky personality, but later installments did introduce villagers of those species with said personality. However, [[Curlos]], the only cranky sheep in the series, would switch to a [[smug]] personality in {{NL|short}}, meaning no sheep villagers currently have the cranky personality.
