Hans is a smug gorilla villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. He is the only smug gorilla in the series. His name is a popular masculine name in Scandinavian countries, places characterized by cold temperatures and mountains. His catchphrase "groovy" is possibly a pun relating to being cool. He strikingly resembles a yeti, which relates to the cold climates associated with his name and the potential pun involving his catchphrase. His favorite saying is similar to that of Rosie, except "purr" is replaced by "turn."

In New Horizons, Hans has the fitness hobby and will wear sporty shades and lift heavy dumbbells while exercising.

Characteristics[edit]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Hans from Welcome amiibo.

Hans is a gorilla with white fur and light blue skin. He has a bright orange nose, bangs on his forehead, and droopy, outlined eyes, making him resemble a yeti.

Personality[edit]

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

As a smug villager, Hans will be kind and gentlemanly towards the player. On occasion, he will also flirt with the player, regardless of their gender. He might also come off as conceited. He will get along with all villager personalities, but he is most often seen getting along with normal, peppy and lazy villagers. Additionally, big sister villagers might not get along with Hans, due to his flirty nature. He will go to sleep at 2:00 AM and wakes up at 8:30 AM.
