Is the male Main Character in the GameCube version of Animal Crossing a half-bull? Why does he have these horns?

I always thought it was a hat

Never played the games, but from the images I always thought it would be the hat too.

If it was, the horns would probably leave when you change clothes.

Later episodes have the round, horned hat as one of the few available shapes for custom hats.
Like the girl is wearing something that looks like a medieval princess's hat, I think he's just supposed to wear a "viking" hat (the historically inaccurate but popular costume kind).
I'm pretty sure they just wanted :
_ No free hair because not enough polygons to make them look good (don't forget AC for Gamecube is really a slightly augmented N64 game)
_ designs that evoke "imaginative kids that love to play pretend" to you.
The boring choice would have been baseball cap, like any other cliche 90s kid character design.

They're trying to brainwash your kids to worship Satan.

Bottom kind of looks like cow ears.

I always thought they looked more like hair. The Mayor calls you a human, but... Hmmm, this leaves lots of questions. Does Nintendo answer to fanmail?

I like to believe that his name is Logan or Patch and he has left superheroing behind for a simpler, quieter life.

Cowlicks? I can't remember what YT video explained a good reason for it.

Was the explanation canon?

Is it even mentioned in the game or anywhere for that matter?
daria1@lemmy.eco.br · 1 pts · 3d
Hmm, no.

If I remember correctly, you get a letter on Father's Day revealing your dad is a bull.

Maybe the female character is half horse.

There is this but I think it just raises more questions

Didn't open questions for me. I just thought of how funny it may have been to be those actors.

It's a disguise so they don't know he is human

The Mayor called him a human, though.

Maybe the female has udders. 🤔
