Anchovy is a lazy bird villager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games to date. His name is taken from the anchovy, a fish that certain birds eat. His catchphrase is the word "churp," an onomatopoeia for the noise birds make, and a burping sound.

Anchovy has a general fish theme, referencing his namesake. The chimneys of his New Leaf and Happy Home Designer houses produce fish-shaped smoke plumes. His star sign is Pisces, which is symbolized by a fish. Additionally, his New Horizons photo displays him against the marine pop wall, which depicts a school of anchovies, a direct reference to his namesake.

In New Horizons, Anchovy has the play hobby and can run around with his arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.

Characteristics[edit]

Artwork of Anchovy from Animal Crossing.

Appearance[edit]

Anchovy is a brown bird with a sharp, yellow bill and thick, black eyebrows. He has white on his chin and belly, and dark brown hair on his head. He has white stripes on his arms and tail, which resembles feathers, and ends in the same dark brown color as his hair. He is most likely based off of a smoky-brown woodpecker.

Personality[edit]

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

As a lazy villager, Anchovy has a relaxed, laid-back lifestyle and will appear friendly toward the player. He often talks about food and is humorous or naïve during conversations. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with peppy, smug, and cranky villagers, while snooty and jock villagers may not get along with him due to their conflicting lifestyles. In New Horizons, Anchovy goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.

    House[edit]

    In each game, Anchovy's house features a gaming theme, with each house containing multiple game machines. In the first-generation games, his house contains slot machines, which were changed into pinball machines from Animal Crossing: Wild World onward. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, two billiard tables and a dartboard were added to accompany the pinball machines. Although not as numerous as before, his New Horizons house still contains a pinball machine, a billiard table, and a dartboard, along with a foosball table.

    In New Horizons[edit]

    In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if Anchovy is one of the villagers who moved in during the main storyline after the villager house development quest, his house will have a combination of non-craftable furniture, plus items crafted by players during the island development storyline, primarily from the Log Series and applicable native fruit sets. He cannot have his initial house interior unless he moves out of the player's island or the Happy Home Paradise DLC is purchased, in which either the player or Isabelle can reset the interior.
