“Camping in the winter gets pretty chilly... But the cold just makes the fire feel even nicer.”
― Cranston, while camping in the igloo, Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Cranston (トキオ, Tokio) is a lazy ostrich villager who first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Cranston, along with Phil, Flora, Phoebe and Blanche, are the five new ostrich characters in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

Appearance

Cranston is a crested ibis, evidenced by his pink and white feathers with red face markings around his yellow eyes and black beak ending in a distinctive red tip. He has pinkish orange feet and his tail consists of white feathers graduating to peach. Initially he wears the Lotus Tee, and carries the Maple Umbrella around on rainy days.

House

Cranston has the Daisy Meadow carpet and the Sky Wall wallpaper. He has a pineapple bed, a clothesline pole, a Dice Stereo that plays Steep Hill, a fire hydrant, a picnic table, a fish, and three baby beds.

Trivia

• Cranston's Japanese name (トキオ, Tokio) is a pun on the common name of the crested ibis (トキ, toki). The crested ibis is a popular symbol of wildlife conservation in Japan due to its endangered status.
  • His English name is a pun on the crane, a different type of water bird.
• The baby beds in Cranston's New Leaf house may be a reference to a common myth of storks (yet another type of water bird) delivering newborn babies to their parents.
• Interestingly enough, his initial catchphrase would make more sense if he had been a jock villager, thus suggesting it's possible that he was initially intended to be a jock, but was changed to lazy at some point, or that his catchphrase may have been switched with another villager by mistake.
