Apollo is a cranky eagle villager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games to date as well as in 🎬 Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori. His name may be a reference to the Apollo space program by NASA in the United States, as his species is the national bird of the U.S., and his birthday, July 4, is Independence Day in the U.S.

In New Horizons, Apollo has the music hobby and may sing anywhere without the need of a stereo.

Characteristics[edit]

Artwork of Apollo from Animal Crossing.

Appearance[edit]

Apollo is an eagle who resembles a bald eagle. He has dark gray body feathers and white head feathers. He has a yellow beak and feet with white claws at the end of them.

Personality[edit]

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

As a cranky villager, Apollo will appear mature compared to other personality types. This will make him appear belittling and insensitive to other villagers, including the player. Despite this, he will learn to confide in the player, considering them his only friend. He will enjoy the usual hobbies, but for relaxation and peace than competition. He will find it difficult to socialize with peppy villagers, who he will criticize when talking to other villagers. He will get along with normal and snooty villagers, as well as other cranky villagers, who he will share deeper conversations with, and will also admire lazy villagers for their lifestyle. He will, on occasion, annoy a normal villager, usually when being mean about something or someone.

In 🎬 Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori, Apollo retains his cranky personality from the game series, being more mature than the other villagers and wanting to keep to himself. Throughout the film, he is silent most of the time (likely due to the fact that his garden was messed up by Ai), but he finally talked towards the end of the movie when Ai tries to apologize to him. Apollo then says to her that he wasn't angry at her at all. This means Apollo might have a soft side. It is rumored by the other residents of Animal Village that he was in a relationship with Whitney, and he is implied to be the one who left a bouquet of blue roses on her doorstep.

Apollo is an example of all cranky villagers in the entire series, but a little bit more mature in the film.

Apollo in Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori

Apollo appears in 🎬 Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori as a resident of Animal Village, where he retains his cranky personality from the games, being more mature than the other villagers and wanting to keep to himself. During Ai's part-time job, she is tasked with a delivery to Apollo, and she meets him at The Roost. It is rumored by the other villagers that Apollo and Whitney were a couple. It is implied in the film's credits sequence that the two reconciled, as a bouquet of blue roses—the same that grow outside Apollo's house—are left on Whitney's doorstep.

Apollo's design in Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori slightly differs from the games, with his eyes being brown and the tips of his wings being designed like fingers. He also wears a unique shirt that is different from the zipper shirt he wears in the games.
