History Anime / AnimalCrossing

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rsz_maxresdefault15.png]]

Also known by its Japanese title, ''Gekijōban Dōbutsu no Mori'' (as well as ''Animal Forest'' and ''Animal Crossing: The Movie''), ''Animal Crossing'' is an anime movie loosely based on the ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing'' video game franchise (more specifically, ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingWildWorld''). Since plot isn't exactly the original games' strong point, the movie takes an appropriately SliceOfLife approach to the source material. While the original was [[NoExportForYou never released outside of Japan,]] there are multiple fan translations, both subtitled and dubbed. In 2020, the film was rebroadcast in Japan to commemorate the release of ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewHorizons''.

The movie begins in spring and follows Ai, a young girl moving to the town of Animal Village. As she settles into town, she gets to know the locals. She quickly befriends several of them: Rosie the cat (Bouquet in Japanese), Alfonso the alligator (Albert), Margie the elephant (Sally), and Yu, a human from a different town who visits often. Margie especially becomes Ai's closest friend, after they [[TastesLikeFriendship bond over cherries.]] Margie even shares with Ai her dream of becoming a famous fashion designer. In the coming months, they go to festivals, annoy (and get annoyed by) Yu and Alfonso, and get wrapped up in an unusual mystery involving bottled letters, and special spots in town...

There's more to it than that, but everything that happens in autumn and beyond is somewhat... [[DramaBomb less cute and happy.]] Will Ai and her friends solve the mystery of the bottled letters? But more importantly, will Ai be able to stay happy living in Animal Village?

For convenience's sake, this page will use the English names of characters from the games.
----

!! This film contains examples of:

* TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects: The film is mostly 2D animated throughout, but some minor effects are 3D animated, most noticeably Kapp'n's taxi and [[spoiler:the flying saucers at the end]].
* AdaptationPersonalityChange:
** Whitney is a snooty villager in the games. Snooty villagers often [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold act like jerks]] and are [[ItsAllAboutMe self centered.]] Whitney in the movie is [[AdaptationalNiceGuy significantly nicer]] than in the games, though she seems cold and aloof.
** Like Whitney, Apollo is also more aloof and quiet in the film. In the games, he's a cranky villager (essentially the male version of snooty). [[ThoseTwoGuys Cesar and Cyrano]], two other cranky villagers who appear in the film, are much closer to their game counterparts.
** Margie is a normal villager in the games. Despite their name, they're anything but in ''Wild World,'' which the movie is based on. They're [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} odd]] and [[SuperOCD neurotic]] animals who are friends with a mop. Margie in the movie is calm and into [[TheFashionista fashion.]]
* TheAnimeOfTheGame: An interesting case in that the original game was rather light on plot, so the film creates its own story instead.
* ArcWords: "Life's a lot like cherry pie..."
* AscendedExtra: All the "villager" type townspeople, but especially Rosie, Margie, and Alfonso. In the games, they're just a few townspeople out of over a hundred. They're central characters here.
* AuthorityInNameOnly: Tortimer, in a sense. He's a huge egotist and constantly worries about the results of the upcoming election (of which he's the only candidate), but he doesn't actually perform any mayoral duties. [[spoiler:In fact, it's revealed at the end of the film that the election had only one ballot; Tortimer, who voted for himself.]]
* BigEater: As with most "lazy" villagers, Alfonso is one. He ordered ''five hundred pies'' from Tom Nook!
* BookEnds: The movie both begins and ends in spring, going through the year in between.
* BuffoonishTomcat: While Rosie is far from a complete buffoon, she is definitely more spacey than the other characters.
* TheCameo: During the summer festival, Katie, Kaitlyn, Lyle, and Dr. Shrunk are in attendance. Timmy and Tommy are running booths, Katrina's tent can be seen, and Saharah is admiring Redd's wares.
* DemotedToExtra: Rather important characters in the games -- like Tom Nook, Pelly, and Blathers -- don't have much of a presence here, as the film focuses more on the ordinary villagers. K.K. Slider, who's by far one of the game's most prominent characters, only shows up during the festival scene (he pops up again during the credits, but only in a montage).
* DefrostingIceQueen: Whitney. She especially warms up to Ai when [[spoiler:Margie moves away, and Ai is clearly distraught.]]
* DoubleTake: Ai delivering her order for Alfonso:
--> '''Ai:''' "Thank you for leaving your order of [[BigEater five hundred pies]] up to--" ''[gasps, checks the receipt]'' "''Five hundred pies?!''"
* DramaBomb: [[spoiler:Margie just up and ''moving,'' telling everyone except for Ai,]] causes a noticeably melancholy shift in the narrative. This is true to how the games work, too.
* DubNameChange: Fan translations vary between using the English names from the games or translating the Japanese names literally.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: During Rosie's introduction, she incorrectly assumes that Ai "ran away from her hometown to heal her broken heart". [[spoiler:This is more or less what Margie does later in the movie.]]
* FunnyAnimal: The point of the series is that you're a TokenHuman living amongst anthropomorphic animals. The same applies here.
* GainaxEnding: The ending of the movie, [[spoiler:which has Ai stumble upon an UFO that creates a constellation in her likeness,]] isn't foreshadowed at all and doesn't make much sense even with the context of [[spoiler:the bottled letters that periodically show up.]]
* GenkiGirl: ''Rosie.'' Goodness gracious. Her first scene has her dance around her front yard and ask Ai if she's single!
* GoodTimesMontage: One near the beginning while transitioning from spring to summer. [[spoiler: There's a sad one when Ai realizes Margie is gone.]]
* HonorableElephant: Margie is very calm and soft-spoken, contrasting with the more inexperienced Ai and the more energetic Rosie.
* IllFatedFlowerbed: Apollo has a patch of blue roses in his front yard. Much like in the game, they're a rare and fragile breed, and Ai tramples over them when Yu causes her to trip and drop a heavy package she was carrying.
* InsufferableGenius: ''Blathers.'' The name is as appropriate as ever. That said, though, he still goofs by calling the ''Seismosaurus'' the largest animal ever. The real largest is the blue whale, and the ''Seismosaurus'' was also later found to actually be a ''Diplodocus'', which is sixth on the length scale of dinosaurs and tenth in weight scale.
* InterspeciesRomance: Rosie mentions it's rumored Whitney (a wolf) and Apollo (an eagle) used to be a couple. It's more or less confirmed after Whitney consoles Ai at the Roost.
* {{Irony}}: Despite being a crocodile, Alfonso cannot swim.
* {{Keet}}: Yu is always taking up a different costume and hobby every time he appears, and never seems to run out of enthusiasm. Ai finds herself quite exasperated by this.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Margie is associated with K.K. Bossa, a song from the games. Apollo, similarly, is associated with Soulful K.K.
* MinorLivingAlone: Ai lives in her own house away from her parents without any guardian. It's unclear how old she's supposed to be, as in the games, but the film particularly emphasizes her youth and inexperience. The same applies to her neighbors, all of whom are of VagueAge (other than the cranky and snooty villagers being implicitly older than the rest).
* MovingAngst: Inverted and played straight. Ai finds out too late that [[spoiler:Margie has moved away, and she's heartbroken that she NeverGotToSayGoodbye, which all culminates in her breaking down sobbing at the Roost]]. Later, [[spoiler:Margie sends a letter saying that she was just as upset about having to leave, and the reason she never told Ai is that she knew it would make them both upset]].
* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: The film portrays Apollo as one. While the other villagers assume that he's callous because he always keeps to himself, he's actually kind, if a bit mellow. Ai fears the worst when she admits to destroying his flowerbed, but his only reaction is to quietly leave; he later accepts her apology in a matter-of-fact manner, laughing it off. The credits montage shows them planting new flowers together.
* NeverGotToSayGoodbye: Ai is torn up when [[spoiler:Margie moves without warning, having told everyone but her]].
* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Averted with Alfonso, who is a lovable and lazy BigEater.
* TheOneWhoWearsShoes: Margie is only the animal character in the movie to regularly wear shoes.
* {{Ojou}}: Whitney is noted by the other villagers to be a distant, yet beautiful and elegant woman.
* PetTheDog: After Ai hits her lowest moment and finds that she can't pay for her coffee at the Roost, Brewster -- who's been somewhat cold and distant up until now -- lets her go without paying.
* PluckyGirl: Ai is unfamiliar with the customs of Animal Village and new to living on her own in general, but she takes every situation she comes across with stride, even when the going gets tough.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Some of the more "video gamey" elements of the series are changed to make more sense as a film. In the games, Mr. Resetti lectures you when you turn the console off without saving; here, he acts as a general rule enforcer, getting upset when people trespass or mess with private property. Ai doesn't carry around large items in [[{{Hammerspace}} her inventory]]; she uses a bike to make deliveries. In fact, the iconic "furniture turns into leaves" aspect is completely absent. The dinosaur fossils are also life-sized compared to the shrunken-down models from the games.
* RecurringExtra: Hopper, who shows up in the background fishing at least once a season.
* RibcageRidge: Ai and her friends eventually stumble on a giant ''Seismosaurus'' fossil embedded in a cave wall. [[spoiler:In the film's climax, Yu has to climb up the fossil to retrieve a part of Gulliver's UFO.]]
* RunningGag: Throughout the movie, there are cuts to Hopper fishing at the riverside, never catching any fish (until the credits -- the one he finally catches is a few inches long).
* ShipTease:
** Ai and Yu start to grow closer towards the end of the film.
--->'''Ai:''' Boys will be boys, but maybe that's not such a bad thing.
** During the credits montage, we see Apollo and Ai replanting the former's blue roses. Later, Whitney finds a bouquet of blue roses at her door.
* SillySimian: Cesar the gorilla and Champ the monkey are the resident non-human primate villagers. Cesar is a cranky villager who serves as a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, while Champ is a jock villager who's always seen exercising. Both of them provide comedic relief through the story.
* SliceOfLife: Just like the games it's inspired by, the story is light on plot and mostly centers around vignettes from the characters' daily lives.
* SweatDrop: Lampshaded. [[spoiler: As Gulliver is leaving the village, he sighs and tries to wipe a sweatdrop off of his head... only to fail because he's wearing a space helmet.]]
* TastesLikeFriendship: Margie and Ai sharing cherries is what helps kickstart their friendship.
* ThemeNaming: The two human characters are named [[PunnyName Yu and Ai.]] Their names, when put together, translate to "friendship" (友愛).
* TheStinger: After the credits, we jump to spring, and Ai runs towards the museum to bake cherry pies with Celeste. The camera then pans down to reveal a patch of lilies of the valley, meaning that Animal Village has reached "perfect town" status.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Cesar and Cyrano are together in all their scenes.
* {{Tsundere}}: Yu is actually a ''male'' version -- he's a bit brash toward Ai, but does genuinely seem to like her.
* WithLyrics: The [[SpeakingSimlish Animalese]] song K.K. Bossa is given Japanese lyrics through subtitles.
* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: The CreditsMontage serves as one, showing what happens after the winter festival and wrapping up certain minor plot threads. Apollo and Whitney seem to reconcile, Blathers and Celeste excavate and display the ''Seismosaurus'' skeleton, and [[spoiler:Margie finally becomes the fashion designer she's dreamed of.]]
* WomenAreWiser: A more downplayed example. Ai and Margie are more mature and level-headed than Yu and Alfonso, but everyone in town is an oddball in their own way. Rosie also seems to look down on Yu and Alfonso, despite not being much more mature than them. Meanwhile, Ai gradually learns to appreciate Yu's optimism and spirit.
* UnlimitedWardrobe: Yu, who's wearing a different costume every single time he appears.

[[note]] The real largest is the blue whale, in case you didn't know. The ''Seismosaurus'' was also later found to actually be a ''Diplodocus'', which is sixth on the length scale of dinosaurs and tenth in weight scale.

* {{Irony}}: Despite being a crocodile, Alfronso cannot swim.
* MinorLivingAlone: Ai lives in her own house away from her parents without any guardian. Might also be the case with some of the other villagers, but they are of VagueAge.
* MovingAngst: Inverted and played straight. Ai finds out too late that Margie has moved away, and she's heartbroken that she Never Got to Say Goodbye to her, and it all culminates in her breaking down sobbing at the Roost. Later, she gets a letter from Margie saying that Margie was just as upset about having to leave, and the reason she never told Ai is that she knew it would make them both cry.

%%* {{Ojou}}: Whitney.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Certain things had to be changed that would come off as too cartoony in an adaptation, or that just wouldn't work. Mr. Resetti's role in the games has him getting upset when you shut off the games without saving; however, here he gets mad when characters mess up other people's property. Ai doesn't carry around large items in her inventory, she uses a bike to make deliveries. The dinosaur fossils are also life-sized compared to the shrunken down models from the games.

* RibcageRidge: Ai and her friends eventually stumble on a giant seismosaurus fossil embedded in a cave wall. [[spoiler: In the film's climax, Yu has to climb up the fossil to retrieve a part of Gulliver's UFO.]]

* ShipTease: Ai and Yu towards the end of the film.
-->'''Ai:''' Boys will be boys, but maybe that's not such a bad thing.
* SliceOfLife: Just like the games it's inspired by.

* SugarAndIcePersonality: Apollo is a male one. Despite appearing distant throughout the film, he quickly forgives Ai for damaging his blue roses, [[spoiler:and sends Whitney a bouquet of them during the end credits.]]

* ThemeNaming: The two human characters are named [[PunnyName Yu and Ai.]] In the Japanese version, doubles as punny GratuitousEnglish, too.
** In Japanese, Ai's and Yu's names squahed together translates to "friendship" (友愛).
* TheStinger: After the credits, we jump to Spring, and Ai runs towards the museum to bake cherry pies with Celeste. The camera then pans down to reveal a patch of Jacob's Ladders, meaning that Animal Forest has since reached "perfect town" status.

* WomenAreWiser: A more downplayed example. Ai and Margie are portrayed as being more mature and level-headed than Yu and Alfonso. In addition, Roise and Ai especially seem to look down upon Yu and Alfonso until the end of the film. Doesn't apply to any of the other characters, though.

* MinorLivingAlone: Ai and Yu are children who live in their own houses away from their respective parents without any guardian. Might also be the case with some of the other villagers, but they are of VagueAge.

* TheStinger: After the credits, we jump to Spring, an Ai runs towards the museum to bake cherry pies with Celeste. The camera then pans down to reveal a patch of Jacob's Ladders, meaning that Animal Forest has since reached "perfect town" status.

* {{Adorkable}}: Rosie plays this trope to a tee.
