New day, new post! For today's blog post, I will be talking about Coco from Animal Crossing New Horizons. Coco is one of the most well-known villagers, and she's also considered to be one of the creepiest. She's a normal rabbit villager, and she's supposed to be very sweet. But despite this, her face can be very off-putting. Much like the gyroids, she doesn't have a normal face. Instead, she has gaping holes for eyes and a mouth instead. She also isn't organic, since her ears don't move. This is because Coco and the gyroids are based on Haniwa, the Japanese terracotta figures that were used in Japanese burial rituals. Because of their odd faces and associations with death, these figures have become rather creepy. This makes it even more odd to have included not only gyroids, but also a villager based on these ancient figures. Personally, I also think Coco is a bit creepy, but there's actually quite a few players who love her. As always, I'll be including a picture of Coco below so you all can see what she looks like. Enjoy!
