Appearance[]
Bunnie in Animal Crossing
Bunnie is an orange rabbit with a creamy beige face, all of her torso until the hips, and arms that are tipped the same color as her head; her bunny tail and legs are the same color, too. Her face has pink blush and a nice, welcoming smile. Her eyelashes are styled in a pointy diamond-like way, with her eyes being mostly round, and her ears are peachy orange on the inside.
Her initial shirt in the N64 and GCN versions is a flicker shirt. She wears a jade check shirt from Wild World to Pocket Camp. In New Horizons, this changes to a jade check dress.
Personality
| Below is a brief description of the peppy personality. For more information, click here. |
Peppy villagers appear to be in a good mood often and are easy to become friends with. As a peppy villager, Bunnie will have the tendency to over-react in conversations about trivial subjects, and will usually be over-excited to see the player or other villagers. This villager, like other peppy villagers, will rarely be discouraged from doing anything, including the usual hobbies. Peppy villagers dream of becoming famous in the future and read Ms. Nintendique, an unseen magazine read by snooty, normal, and other peppy villagers in the Animal Crossing series. Peppy villagers will also have a very short attention span, which means they soon forget some arguments or tasks given to the player which weren't completed. Bunnie may easily get upset in conversation when the wrong things are said. She will get along well with other villagers, particularly lazy, normal, jock, sisterly, and other peppy villagers, but she may annoy and upset cranky and snooty villagers, whose personalities differ to hers. Due to the nature of peppy villagers, she may mention how "old" or "boring" cranky villagers are compared to her opposing, upbeat personality.
House[]
From Animal Forest to City Folk, Bunnie's house has stayed mostly the same, with a few minor changes in the installments. She has many pieces from the lovely series and the regal series, such as the lovely end table, regal vanity, and lovely chair. Other furniture in the N64 and GCN games includes the Papa bear and two shirts, the red check shirt and the candy gingham tee with a lovely stereo in the back of her house.
In Wild World and City Folk, she has the Mama bear and the green bed. Her choice of flooring and wallpaper is the wood paneling on her walls and a parquet floor in all games except for New Leaf.
In New Leaf, Bunnie's house has changed drastically from the past games, with a much more modern theme and lacking furniture from the lovely series. She has different pieces of furniture that helps add a modern theme towards her house, including two regal sofas, a pine table with a Mama bear, a small and medium magazine rack, and a house plant. Other furniture in her home includes an upright piano, a conductor's stand, and a retro stereo. For her choice of flooring and wallpaper, she has the citrus wall and the flower pop carpet.
In every game until New Horizons, Bunnie has either a retro stereo or a lovely stereo (N64 and GCN) that has K.K. Aria playing on it.
In New Horizons, the exterior of her house is white with tan trim, has a yellow door and and red roof. The interior consists of a pink and purple polka dot wall and white planked flooring. Bunnie focuses on the theme of pink furniture and decorations which consists of a pink mirror, a pink bed with a plaid pink and purple cover, a dresser, magazine rack, dish rack with pink dishes, pink and red tea set, and pink mat with brown bears and a house decal. She also has a red workbench, a white stove, red boom box, an apple TV along with a dress and rug, a bulletin board, and a bunch of white wood furniture such as her wardrobe and table.
