The best part about the Ankha thing is that Zone will never play another installment of the series again, and likewise will never be an 'Ankha Zone 2'. Zone only played it because it was "in", and coincidentally happened to have Ankha in it, a character that became famous because of minus8, an artist Zone idolizes. So Ankha's reputation was tarnished by someone who only has a rudimentary understanding and care for the series, unlike minus8.
@@GodMaxDrinkerofTea Zone is a legendary artist, best known for their rule 34. I believe they are one of the first, if not only, r34 artists to merchandize themselves. That being said, Zone only has a passive interest in Animal Crossing, quite literally only played the game because of minus8. Probably had a junkrat moment where they saw Ankha was in this game, remembered minus8's animation, and then yelled "I GOT AN IDEA!" Zone will very likely not play another AC game, and very likely not draw Ankha (or anyone else) ever again. Zone was lucky that Ankha is the 'least animal' like character, she has no snout, no whiskers, nothing distinctly animal besides ears and noses. Zone would for sure never draw Isabelle.
As a Black person, I didn't care who wore the hair. I was just happy to finally have hair in the game that looked like mine. I mean, part of the beauty of the game was being able to wear outfits and hairstyles and decorate your home with elements of cultures all over the world. No one said a word if I walked around in a kimono and a Sombrero...it was wonderful for so many cultures to have representation and for us to be able to experience those cultures in ways we otherwise would not.
Same some people don't know how annoying it is not having basic ethnic features in games. I don't mind anyone using Afro puffs or other hair styles for their own, it spreads the culture in my opinion. I have mixed people in my family who look 100% white but can grow large afro puffs, it's normal. So many korean and Japanese games don't even include my shade and I'm like come on you can implement this in under 5 mins!
@@VForcesoul You are so right! Some games really do drop the ball when it comes to basic ethnic features. Or we just get the standard fade, big afro, or maybe dreads if they are being generous. It's nice to have more representation. And you are also right about race and hair, because I once saw mixed race twins that almost looked identical and both looked White except one had very smooth blond hair like his mother while his brother had a real deal afro like his father....but also blonde! Humans come in so many variations of colors, features, and hair textures and it's nice for us to be able to showcase that in games.
@@theindiejurnee the issue is that whenever they try to add ethnic features, people keep saying it's cultural appropriation. I kinda get why some game companies just don't do anything, they just don't want to deal with that nonsense.
For the Ankha thing, you had it backwards; the original “Ankha Zone” video was the NSFW one, and people started doing the tiktok dance afterwards. Most of the people who did the dance on tiktok were completely unaware of the NSFW nature of the source, they just saw other people doing it and thought it was a cool new trend.
I was around when the first minus8 ankha animation came out before zone redid it and it was like forbidden knowledge, so when the meme came around I was just laughing a lot at the people who didn't know about that animation from ~2012ish
@benamisai-kham5892 I believe it was 2017. It was the last animation he did before he went off the rails and had a 4ish year hiatus. Zones is from early 2021.
These controversies in Animal Crossing make me feel old. I remember a time when these types of controversies didn't happen in Animal Crossing and if they did, they weren't publicized or known. We just had fun, shared friend codes, worked on our homes and houses, etc. Idk. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm old. But it feels that way.
New Horizons just got too big, mainly because of the pandemic and the lockdowns right at the time of release. If this hadn't happened, the game wouldn't have been this mainstream and would have mostly been for the OG players and new players who just like that genre.
This happens when any franchise becomes popular, unfortunately. The darker side is always there, but it gets much bigger for each person that joins the community
The Sad part is that 99.9% of all of Animal Crossing's Controversies,come from New horizons and it's New fans,The AC fandom was pretty sweet before the new fans came when new horizons released
I wouldn’t say this is sad, although I can understand why you would say so. Anytime a community gets big enough, controversies arise. It’s a basically inevitable consequence of Animal Crossing becoming more popular, which I think is a good thing!
Definitely doesn’t look like “space buns” but I also couldn’t care less about someone’s hairstyle, especially in a game. Wish people could just be nice to each other 😪
They're afro puffs by the texture but really, the issue is Nintendo could have done multiple hair styles, in diff textures. I believe New Leaf has a straight haired space bun, so give us both? I'm personally a curly haired white person and neither the barely there waves, straight or afro hair matches my texture. People have made concept art for hairs that basically look like several of the straight ones with coils and would suit the game really well. But Nintendo jumped ship sadly, ACNH with a few more updates and even paid dlc could have become the definitive version to play
@@CaityRaindrop Agree with everything you said. I'd devote a team to making assets and features for character creations from all corners of the globe available to everyone for every game that has customization.
A part of me does feel for the OP poster. For all we know, they could have been quite young or live in an area, like myself, where the populations is small and not diverse at all so they might not be educated on black hair and the importance of it. The responder should not have been that aggressive towards them.
That hair issue still gets me. Like I'm black and I'm tired of white people being offended on our behalf. By twitters own logic, black people (or poc, hate that term) can't use the original hair styles. But it's sad that it crossed over to real life. Like no race owns a hair style. And I never understood the hype for the froggy chair.
As a white person, I think a lot of it comes down to that classic "white guilt". Which while I understand the feeling, I view it more as something to outgrow as you get older rather than double down on? Though the irony of white people talking over black people (often contradicting them) in order to "defend" them is not lost on me. It's also always over the most innocuous things; hairstyles, clothing, music... Idk, I just don't think it's that hard to just listen to the people who actually know what they're talking about on these things, rather than grappling for the moral high ground on social media.
@@CanidRose I agree. I never liked "white guilt" or agreed with the privilege thing. It just feels like that side wants people to feel guilty about their skin tones. And for my side unfortunately, there's a narrative where I'm supposed to hate white people or blame them any time I fail to do something. That's basically saying that no matter how hard I try, a white person will stand in my way and either try to take my goal or ruin my chances of succeeding in my goals. And that's not a positive outlook.
@@CanidRose Honestly, I think it is mostly people attempting and expecting to get attaboy's on social media for being progressive and socially conscious. When they're really just absolute fucking cretins.
My opinion is there can be things that other races shouldn't use but that is cultural things I really doubt puffy hair buns that has no hair pieces(like asians culture have like chopsticks and stuff that can be seen as part of their culture) so that those buns can be worn by white people and be called space buns

That whole thing really makes me want to be petty about it and make a character with one of the fun colored skin tones with that hair and reply pictures under the angry reply.
The space buns thing was crazy to me. Feel whatever way you want about it, but if someone wants to wear the "black hairstyles" they have that right. Who am I to tell someone what to do with their wear, whether in a game or irl? Besides, it's not hurting me if a white person wears a "black" hairstyle over a "white" one 🤷🏾♀️
I remember hearing somewhere that the post was a troll and her account was bait not sure if its true or not but I know she got in trouble later because she said some slurs
Speaking of fans we need A video discussing the animal crossing granny. The granny who was suprised with animal crossing new leaf and new horizions who love the game so much she played the game for 100 hours. Those videos are so wholesome 😊
I came across tangy on my villager hunt but i didn't get them😭😭 idk why - i shouldv but then I came across Raymond not long after, oh and i had like 2 octopi and they spawned back to back like th, i meant, i got one then the same one again like wow. And i didnt even spend that long ☠️☠️
I would LOVE to have Raymond on my island, but, Tangy has actually been my dreamie for a bit longer, so, if I had to choose between the two, I would take Tangy. Also, my island fruit is oranges, so I could give Tangy oranges and call him a cannibal.
As a white person, I have this cardinal rule when it comes to cultural appropriation: If it's another white person, disregard. If it comes from a person from said culture in question, thennn listen.
Yet y'all seem to never give a fuck when people from said race speak up and say that they DON'T have an issue with it. Funny how you only choose to listen when it supports your narrative.
@@AlexLopez0506 it doesn't depend on anything, though. You could recreate the entirety of the Jewish bank used for the Harry Potter films in Minecraft, floor tile hexagram included, and it's still not your problem if someone sees it and gets upset.

@@dale117 the Jewish Bank? You mean the bank ran by Goblins? The film location was the Australian embassy in London and they were Commonwealth stars, not Stars of David. But I see what you're getting at.
I was never offended over the hair thing as a black person. So many people feel the need to be offended about things that aren’t even that offensive to the group they’re concerned about
I remember people getting BANNED from Animal Crossing groups or getting themselves on a blacklist for using the afro puff hairstyle with a white character. It became a witch hunt for a long while
I like the idea of having a horror themed island but it only really looks good when its night and/or raining. And what about when its sunny? or snowing? Lovely pink petals or feathers floating through the air? Do the decorations coincide with the weather or are you going to be playing with an off-looking island most of the time? Maybe that wouldn't bother people but I would personally find that really frustrating to play on a regular basis. Unless you do time-travel every time you play to make it night or raining.
Oh god when I heard about the guy who was visiting IRL Places and historical art pieces I was hoping that I got clickbaited into watching wholesome stuff :(
The space buns one got worse, the person that was just enjoying the hairstyle, got doxxed and I think eventually deleted their account because of it. If you gotta dox someone over some hairstyle in a game about talking animals, your life definitely sucks.
Ohhhhh my god, I remember playing Animal Crossing for the Gamecube one day, and Nook was buying turnips for 900 bells per turnip that day. Man was that the fricking day. It's amazing how Animal Crossing has changed over the years, and how much its fanbase has grown, especially after the mobile game and New Horizons.
I'm white and have extremely curly hair, none of the hairstyles look anything like mine other than the black hairstyles. Idk if it's acceptable for me to use them but I've been told that its ok. But still idk
You should be able to choose whatever hairstyle you want, it’s a video game and it’s sad that people feel nervous to pick a certain hairstyle for a bunch of pixels because other snowflakes will be offended lol don’t worry about it, choose whatever hair you want
If I want to play as a black character, white character, asian character or a white character with an afro, I'll do it. It's a laid back video game where you can play as and do whatever you want. People need to get over it.
Space Bun definition is “A hairstyle in which the hair is gathered up and pinned into two buns on either side of the head” So yeah an Afro puff is still in fact a space bun :) but call it whatever I guess lol
I had to see what the Evil Imp issue was. I honestly love the guy for his skill in film making, especially in the early days. He figured out things like scene composition and layout in the limited realm of Animal Crossing. And the juxtaposition of his cosmic horror set against the cuteness of Animal Crossing was very interesting.
the space bun thing is so goofy to me as a native north african- having very pale skin and coily hair, neither I, or anybody in my family has wore box braids or other hair styles that are culturally significant to black africans, but dude afro puffs are literally something my mom's been doing to my hair since i was 2 years old because it was cute and simple to work with for short baby hair, so i dont know, personally i was just super excited about the curly hair addition to the game I dont give a crap who wears it.
I want to say: they are afro puffs. Who can wear them? EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO. This game is about imagination come to life for all of us. Your Character is of your own creation! It's supposed to be fun, that's the point!
Curly frizzy hair isn’t something exclusive to black people, I really wish people wouldn’t gatekeep hair, I understand if it’s a religious or cultural thing but braids aren’t exclusive to one race
I feel like it's worth mentioning that the nsfw version of the Ankha Zone video was the original. It's called that because the animator that made it is Zone Tan, a notorious rule 34 artist
People definitely still does the thing mentioned about the "Killager" at 14:20. I saw a custom stage on Smash Ultimate's Shared Content within the past month of a Villager holding an axe while chasing a worried looking Captain Falcon. Almost ten years later, and people are still making this kind of stuff.
Raymond I was one of the lucky people who just encountered him normal... on an island xD And Judy too. I was searching for special islands and not for villagers. So I was very happy to let them join my island :P
The first one is so cool, like if i will be a rich adult, this is the stuff that i would do with my adult money, like the man is literally traveling bc of animal crossing.
About the Ankha thing, Zone made the video that got popular (hence the video's title) which was nsfw. I'm pretty sure it was a recreation of the video made by Minus 8, which was also nsfw. Both Zone's and Minus 8's videos predate the sfw versions, so what you said was actually the other way around
My ex friend used to be friends with the person who sent that Raymond DM. All I remember about what that friend told me was that they were acted very entitled.
3:55 This mod is very "bare bones" 😏. I see what you did there. Not sure if this was an unintentional inuendo snuck in under the radar. Just with the context of what you are talking about here, makes it really funny. 😆🤣
Tbh the first player that cone to mind would be people who dabbled in Raymond marketing. Also FAM I'm glad you found your niche for citycore! I've got a carnivalcore that I'll never delete
3:00 she was an islander in the original game before becoming a regular villager, so in reference to the original, what happens on Kapp'n's island, stays on Kapp'n's island! There's a reason Ankha lived alone on that island!! 😉
I remember being really happy that a bunch of new fans were getting to experience Animal Crossing. Less so when it became really hard for me to even buy New Horizons, and then even less when all these controversies came about. Whatever happened to the peaceful atmosphere Animal Crossing was supposed to be all about creating?
Came here from the controversy video mainly because I wanted to gush about Mask as a series. It is too accurate and actually made me change a lot of how I act towards villagers! I treat them with the finest respect, though I do sort out the villagers I don't want. I swore off the net method to get them to move off and I swore off Nookazon after all that. Amazing series.
Anka is the most lewded character from animal crossing. She is the only villager that I knew of before I learned about animal crossing and I always wondered where this character was from. And know I feel disturbed about how people portray her considering the fact that she is from animal crossing
I never got all the Rodney hate. He does look a bit quirky, but I personally find him more cute than ugly. After seeing hate for him, I wondered if he was really that bad of a villager, so I added him to my island, and he became my favorite. I love his game room (which I added to once I was able to remodel villager homes), his sense of humor, and how he likes to sing all the time. He's the most entertaining villager on my island.
Oh the early good elf days I no longer play but man you brought back so many memories waking up early to sell stuff on nookazon. Time travel was at its finest
I went to go watch the Animal Crossin movie by Densle. I am now traumatized! It's really fucking good tho ABSOLUTELY check it out, the whole series (up until reset part 1) is like 30 minutes and you'll rethink everything I swear.
my headcanon for Isabelle is that she's a gamer and likes playing Doom, and drinks Whisky during her announcements. Her drink has the right glass, the right color, and the ice cubes. If it's a Cola, why not just give her a soda bottle.
Oh wow... the "controversy" at 10:26 is literally one of the dumbest things I have ever heard in my life, and a perfect example of how social media is making the world a worse place.
Space buns/ Afro puffs thing: (I am Hispanic but I don’t think this matters lol) Frankly, no one cares. And if you do… It’s a *childrens* game. It’s just *hair* why does it matter so much to you? Let her be. It’s just a fictional hairstyle in a fictional world. Chill out.
Stuff like this is why I don’t get why the internet has such a strong stance against even the slightest bit of gatekeeping. More insular communities rarely have to deal pointless viral controversy and straight up cringe misfit behavior. I’ve seen it happen with a lot of series, Persona comes to mind.
I love how it goes from all this controversial stuff to "Now let's focus on the froggy chair :D" I'm white, and honestly it's actually racist of a person to not allow somebody to do something because they're white. The law of not discriminating against somebody because of skin colour doesn't just apply to darker skin colours, and a lot of spoiled brats who think they're being held against because they're a different culture when really they're just as equal will go after people with lighter skin colour. We've gone from discriminating against blacks to discriminating against whites, and it's a really sad thing to see since the original thought was to actually be equal. It's easy to see that people thing blacks need to be better than whites for them to be "equal," and many people get offended when they're actually treated equal despite it being just a skin colour or a cultural difference.
Similar to the doom eternal and Acnh being released in the same day, the 2.0 update came out on my birthday, November 4th and I didn’t even realize it!

The granny who was suprised with animal crossing new leaf and new horizions who love the game so much she played the game for 100 hours.
Those videos are so wholesome 😊
the whole thing with Raymond is why im glad i have Tangy on my island
Tangy Supremacy
Yes!! Tangy my favourite ~
Tangy is the best
I came across tangy on my villager hunt but i didn't get them😭😭 idk why - i shouldv but then I came across Raymond not long after, oh and i had like 2 octopi and they spawned back to back like th, i meant, i got one then the same one again like wow. And i didnt even spend that long ☠️☠️
I would LOVE to have Raymond on my island, but, Tangy has actually been my dreamie for a bit longer, so, if I had to choose between the two, I would take Tangy.
Also, my island fruit is oranges, so I could give Tangy oranges and call him a cannibal.
I had Tangy and Raymond...they spent a lot of time chatting it up together so I made them neighbors!
Pretty sure the original ankha zone was the nsfw one, and people started making sfw versions :)
As a white person, I have this cardinal rule when it comes to cultural appropriation:
If it's another white person, disregard.
If it comes from a person from said culture in question, thennn listen.
Yet y'all seem to never give a fuck when people from said race speak up and say that they DON'T have an issue with it. Funny how you only choose to listen when it supports your narrative.
Nah, disregard either way. If someone gets that upset over something that doesn't affect them in any way, that's their problem.
@@dale117 depends. Like you'd never wear an arm band with a Star of David on it, but sombrero? Hell yeah, wear that shit.
@@AlexLopez0506 it doesn't depend on anything, though. You could recreate the entirety of the Jewish bank used for the Harry Potter films in Minecraft, floor tile hexagram included, and it's still not your problem if someone sees it and gets upset. You can't be selective on who you're okay with upsetting or you just come off as hypocritical.
@@dale117 the Jewish Bank? You mean the bank ran by Goblins? The film location was the Australian embassy in London and they were Commonwealth stars, not Stars of David. But I see what you're getting at.
I was never offended over the hair thing as a black person. So many people feel the need to be offended about things that aren’t even that offensive to the group they’re concerned about
I Also find T-Pain playing animal crossing quite humorous 😂
I remember people getting BANNED from Animal Crossing groups or getting themselves on a blacklist for using the afro puff hairstyle with a white character. It became a witch hunt for a long while
BROOOOOOO I REMEMBER BEING HARASSED FOR WEARING ONE OF THE AFRO HAIRCUTS. THAT WAS *INSANE*
that first one is so WHOLESOME! I'm glad he's visiting us in Europe to look at the paintings.
I like the idea of having a horror themed island but it only really looks good when its night and/or raining. And what about when its sunny? or snowing? Lovely pink petals or feathers floating through the air? Do the decorations coincide with the weather or are you going to be playing with an off-looking island most of the time? Maybe that wouldn't bother people but I would personally find that really frustrating to play on a regular basis. Unless you do time-travel every time you play to make it night or raining.
Oh god when I heard about the guy who was visiting IRL Places and historical art pieces I was hoping that I got clickbaited into watching wholesome stuff
:(
The space buns one got worse, the person that was just enjoying the hairstyle, got doxxed and I think eventually deleted their account because of it. If you gotta dox someone over some hairstyle in a game about talking animals, your life definitely sucks.
Indeed
Ohhhhh my god, I remember playing Animal Crossing for the Gamecube one day, and Nook was buying turnips for 900 bells per turnip that day. Man was that the fricking day. It's amazing how Animal Crossing has changed over the years, and how much its fanbase has grown, especially after the mobile game and New Horizons.
I'm white and have extremely curly hair, none of the hairstyles look anything like mine other than the black hairstyles. Idk if it's acceptable for me to use them but I've been told that its ok. But still idk
It’s fine, people have created an issue that shouldn’t exist & outside of America this would be absurd
You should be able to choose whatever hairstyle you want, it’s a video game and it’s sad that people feel nervous to pick a certain hairstyle for a bunch of pixels because other snowflakes will be offended lol don’t worry about it, choose whatever hair you want
I feel sad for all those people who wasted money on raymond nd now he is available in amiibo cards 💀
Also for cheaper with nfc cards 💀
eh, i spent money to get him and i dont regret it. i still have him. im gonna get his amiibo eventually just as a backup.
If I want to play as a black character, white character, asian character or a white character with an afro, I'll do it. It's a laid back video game where you can play as and do whatever you want.
People need to get over it.
Space Bun definition is “A hairstyle in which the hair is gathered up and pinned into two buns on either side of the head”
So yeah an Afro puff is still in fact a space bun :) but call it whatever I guess lol
I had to see what the Evil Imp issue was. I honestly love the guy for his skill in film making, especially in the early days. He figured out things like scene composition and layout in the limited realm of Animal Crossing. And the juxtaposition of his cosmic horror set against the cuteness of Animal Crossing was very interesting.
the space bun thing is so goofy to me as a native north african- having very pale skin and coily hair, neither I, or anybody in my family has wore box braids or other hair styles that are culturally significant to black africans, but dude afro puffs are literally something my mom's been doing to my hair since i was 2 years old because it was cute and simple to work with for short baby hair, so i dont know, personally i was just super excited about the curly hair addition to the game I dont give a crap who wears it.
We need to stop judging by color, in my eyes every human is the same but with their own personality.
I want to say: they are afro puffs. Who can wear them? EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO. This game is about imagination come to life for all of us. Your Character is of your own creation! It's supposed to be fun, that's the point!
Curly frizzy hair isn’t something exclusive to black people, I really wish people wouldn’t gatekeep hair, I understand if it’s a religious or cultural thing but braids aren’t exclusive to one race
spacebuns girl won when the hairstyle was added to pokemon scarlet/violet as spacebuns. a non afro ver to be fair but it made me smile.
I feel like it's worth mentioning that the nsfw version of the Ankha Zone video was the original. It's called that because the animator that made it is Zone Tan, a notorious rule 34 artist
People definitely still does the thing mentioned about the "Killager" at 14:20. I saw a custom stage on Smash Ultimate's Shared Content within the past month of a Villager holding an axe while chasing a worried looking Captain Falcon. Almost ten years later, and people are still making this kind of stuff.
killager is weirdly nostalgic now haha
Raymond I was one of the lucky people who just encountered him normal... on an island xD
And Judy too. I was searching for special islands and not for villagers. So I was very happy to let them join my island :P
Ahhhhh Judy just recently moved in from my campsite, I love her sm and have wanted her for so long!
The first one is so cool, like if i will be a rich adult, this is the stuff that i would do with my adult money, like the man is literally traveling bc of animal crossing.
About the Ankha thing, Zone made the video that got popular (hence the video's title) which was nsfw. I'm pretty sure it was a recreation of the video made by Minus 8, which was also nsfw. Both Zone's and Minus 8's videos predate the sfw versions, so what you said was actually the other way around
People who were mad about the space buns thing would flip if they saw Mario wearing a poncho + sombrero while playing a ukulele
People just get offended by everything. Space Buns were Princess Leia's hair style in Star Wars
Actually the explicit version came first
My ex friend used to be friends with the person who sent that Raymond DM. All I remember about what that friend told me was that they were acted very entitled.
3:55 This mod is very "bare bones" 😏. I see what you did there. Not sure if this was an unintentional inuendo snuck in under the radar. Just with the context of what you are talking about here, makes it really funny. 😆🤣
The first one is so cool
Space buns to me is more like Star Wars and referring to Princess Leila’s cinnamon buns in her hair lol!
Tbh the first player that cone to mind would be people who dabbled in Raymond marketing. Also FAM I'm glad you found your niche for citycore! I've got a carnivalcore that I'll never delete
3:00 she was an islander in the original game before becoming a regular villager, so in reference to the original, what happens on Kapp'n's island, stays on Kapp'n's island! There's a reason Ankha lived alone on that island!! 😉
I remember being really happy that a bunch of new fans were getting to experience Animal Crossing. Less so when it became really hard for me to even buy New Horizons, and then even less when all these controversies came about. Whatever happened to the peaceful atmosphere Animal Crossing was supposed to be all about creating?
I love all villagers.
In new leaf, I had Rodney and I liked him.
Also, I’m just happy that I got petri’s amiibo so she’s on my island.
Came here from the controversy video mainly because I wanted to gush about Mask as a series. It is too accurate and actually made me change a lot of how I act towards villagers! I treat them with the finest respect, though I do sort out the villagers I don't want. I swore off the net method to get them to move off and I swore off Nookazon after all that. Amazing series.
Ironically a lot of people who want NSFW stuff in animal crossing are the same people who claim to hate furries so take that as you will XD
I'm Basque. Would I be angry if someone had a bit of Basque culture in their house? No. I'd be honoured that someone actually knows that we exist.
I personally really like when high school seniors were hosting their graduation in Animal Crossing and AOC came to one!
Anka is the most lewded character from animal crossing. She is the only villager that I knew of before I learned about animal crossing and I always wondered where this character was from. And know I feel disturbed about how people portray her considering the fact that she is from animal crossing
I never got all the Rodney hate. He does look a bit quirky, but I personally find him more cute than ugly. After seeing hate for him, I wondered if he was really that bad of a villager, so I added him to my island, and he became my favorite. I love his game room (which I added to once I was able to remodel villager homes), his sense of humor, and how he likes to sing all the time. He's the most entertaining villager on my island.
The Ankha zone was actually done originally that’s what sparked the memes
Wdym it was the furries we weren't the ones who began that first, blame the r34 artists 😭
Those people are also furries. You can't gate keep this fandom, don't try.
I love the murderous villager memes 😂😂😂😂
“There was this dancing video spreading around, but a more graphic version was made later on…”
Who’s gonna tell ‘em?
When I got my campsite ready for more villagers, I ended up getting Raymond, so HA!
i’m irish and japanese with predominantly irish features and my hair is 3b hair and so the spacebuns are one of the only hairs that looks like mine
Of course the stupid spacebuns controversy was mentioned. I remember when this blew up on twitter and it devolved into even more of a nasty mess.
0:49 Why does he have an amiibo of himself?
Oh the early good elf days I no longer play but man you brought back so many memories waking up early to sell stuff on nookazon. Time travel was at its finest
love this! thanks for sharing!
I went to go watch the Animal Crossin movie by Densle. I am now traumatized! It's really fucking good tho ABSOLUTELY check it out, the whole series (up until reset part 1) is like 30 minutes and you'll rethink everything I swear.
12:40 I thought the person who posted the picture of the space buns was albino😭😭😭 I was so confused back then
the raymond stuff was so wild lmao it was great
As a black person just use any hair style you want
Densle released _The Reset: Part 2_ earlier this week, and it is an emotional rollercoaster 👀
ive watched densle's full movie on animal crossing, densle deserves more
I hope more people will see this video. It`s been a while since i laughed so much, thank you :D
I'm pretty sure the nsfw ankha video came before the sfw ones
The Space Buns thing was just toxic Twitter brain taken to its absolute limit.
my headcanon for Isabelle is that she's a gamer and likes playing Doom, and drinks Whisky during her announcements. Her drink has the right glass, the right color, and the ice cubes. If it's a Cola, why not just give her a soda bottle.
Oh wow... the "controversy" at 10:26 is literally one of the dumbest things I have ever heard in my life, and a perfect example of how social media is making the world a worse place.
I love the intense topic to FROGGIE CHAIR 🤣💚
People typically don't mention the space buns girl was actually racist af and did it intentionally as bait.
Even so.. that wasnt very good bait as anyone should be aloud to wear them haha.
White people shouldnt speak for poc, run your own race, ynknow?
wait. for real?
@@vaniillazilla yep. even to this day people don't know .-.
@@temp_unknown Proof please.
That and her bf's a creepy nonce who personally threatened an acnh player who was doxxed.
Space buns/ Afro puffs thing:
(I am Hispanic but I don’t think this matters lol)
Frankly, no one cares.
And if you do…
It’s a *childrens* game. It’s just *hair* why does it matter so much to you?
Let her be. It’s just a fictional hairstyle in a fictional world. Chill out.
Stuff like this is why I don’t get why the internet has such a strong stance against even the slightest bit of gatekeeping. More insular communities rarely have to deal pointless viral controversy and straight up cringe misfit behavior. I’ve seen it happen with a lot of series, Persona comes to mind.
The raymond one was hilarious. I would have replied with “No” LOL like they have no power
Honestly the hair thing could be both they could be space buns of Afro puffs you can see them as you want to see them
The main thing ACNH taught me is how entitled players seem to be nowadays
Bro when I was younger ankha was always my fave but the internet was like imma bout to end this girls whole career…
Fun fact: Zone's animation was a homage to an older one that came out a while ago. His just blew up for some reason lol
When I think "space buns" I think of two buns that sit on top of someone's head. Doesn't matter what the hair texture is like.
For the record, the NSFW Ankha Zone animations didn't spawn from memes of Ankha dancing, but rather the other way around
11:17 the reason I bought the pack was because it had a bald hair style but okay
Love your halo content and man do I absolutely love your animal crossing videos too!
I love how it goes from all this controversial stuff to "Now let's focus on the froggy chair :D"
I'm white, and honestly it's actually racist of a person to not allow somebody to do something because they're white.
The law of not discriminating against somebody because of skin colour doesn't just apply to darker skin colours, and a lot of spoiled brats who think they're being held against because they're a different culture when really they're just as equal will go after people with lighter skin colour.
We've gone from discriminating against blacks to discriminating against whites, and it's a really sad thing to see since the original thought was to actually be equal.
It's easy to see that people thing blacks need to be better than whites for them to be "equal," and many people get offended when they're actually treated equal despite it being just a skin colour or a cultural difference.
Marshal literally never wears pants and yet you decided to censor him.
It's like Squidward
Posting your AC stuff on the internet can sometimes be scary man...
I made over 12 million bells by manipulating the turnip market. I called myself the Wolf of Turnip Street for a while
Similar to the doom eternal and Acnh being released in the same day, the 2.0 update came out on my birthday, November 4th and I didn’t even realize it!
9:12 even Hazel sadly, she’s my starter villager, AND SHE’S THE SWEETEST SQUIRREL I HAVE EVER SEEN
SHE CALLS ME SIS
