Rilla is a peppy gorilla villager in the Animal Crossing series. She first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo. She is one of the Sanrio crossover villagers and is based on the character Hello Kitty. Her name is likely derived from gorilla.

In New Horizons, Rilla has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item she is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils. Rilla is the only gorilla villager who does not have the fitness hobby.

Characteristics

Rilla in Welcome amiibo.

Appearance

Rilla is a pink gorilla with a red bow on her head. Her design is based on the Sanrio character Hello Kitty.

In Welcome amiibo, she appears to be wearing red shoes. However, in Pocket Camp, her feet are the same color as her main fur color. She starts to wear shoes again in New Horizons.

Personality

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

Rilla is a peppy villager, which means she will appear over-excited to see the player and most other villagers. Like all peppy villagers, she will appear childish and immature, usually asking the player for items they want. She will enjoy the usual hobbies and will tell the player that when she is bug catching, she is looking for a particular bug that may look nice in her home. She will get along well with other villagers, particularly the lazy, normal, big sister, smug and other peppy villagers, but she may annoy and upset cranky and snooty villagers who are known to appear older than other villagers. Due to the honest nature of peppy villagers, she may mention how "old" or "boring" they are due to her opposing, upbeat personality. She will easily get upset in conversation when it is not going her way, but will forget ever having the conversation due to her short attention span.
