“Stop that! You're SO annoying!”
― Francine, City Folk
Francine (フランソワ,Furansowa?, François) is a snootyrabbitvillager in the Animal Crossing series. She originally appears in Animal Forest e+ and later reappears in City Folk, after not appearing in Wild World. Her initial phrase "karat" is a homophone on the vegetable, carrot - a typical food item for rabbits and karat/carat - a way to measure gold purity. She and Tiffany are the only two snooty rabbits so far. She has the fashion hobby.
She and Chrissy are sisters. The two also appear on the album cover for Bubblegum K.K. Francine also appears on the cover of Café K.K.
Francine is a white rabbit with a blue polka-dotted hood, blue tights, and wears blue eyeliner, blue and white polka-dotted eyeshadow, and pink blush. Her eyes generally appear as if they are looking to the right rather than straight ahead like most villagers. She also has a lemon-yellow fringe to match her soft cloudy appearance, and a green nose which stands out from her cloudy complexion. Her only differences from Chrissy is her color, eyes, her initial shirt, and her fringe are all facing the opposite side of Chrissy's. Her initial shirt is the dark polka shirt, which matches her dark and rude personality. On rainy days, she carries a ribbon umbrella.
Personality
Below is a brief description of the snooty personality. For more information, click here.
Francine has a snooty personality, which means she loves make-up and gossiping. As a snooty villager, Francine will first appear rude and arrogant towards the player, often talking about herself and her own experiences. She also speaks about the style and appearance of other villagers, usually other female villagers such as normal, peppy, and other snooty villagers. She will soon warm up to the player, confiding in them about their own feelings but still keeping subtly rude. Francine will not get along with lazy villagers due to them not caring about their appearance or the lazy villagers hating what she eats, and she won't get along with jockvillagers because they will question her on her physical appearance and they won't worry about fashion. However, she will get along with cranky villagers due to their similar rude personalities, and usually normal villagers as well.
In New Leaf, Francine's house still has some furniture from the Blue Series such as the dresser and wardrobe, but she also has some furniture from the Minimalist Series such as the sofa and vanity and also has a pinewood table and a daisy umbrella. She has a turntable that plays I Love You and has both the blue wallpaper and flooring.
