Asian Inspired Villagers?

Kabuki Theatre duo:
Greta (Noh mask), Kabuki (self-explanatory)

Sneaky duo:
Snake (ninja), Rizzo (Japanese thief)

Japanese-theme in general:
Analisa (based on geishas/kokeshi dolls(?), her name is Miyabi in JP too)
Genji (looks like based off of a scholar-official, but also can be a reference to "The Tale of Genji" by Murasaki Shikibu)
Zucker (based off of takoyaki)

Others:
Soleil (based on Indian culture, her name is Shanti in Japanese)

I think Rory is the only one not mentioned. I dunno about his house interior because he was my starter, but his design, clothing and house exterior are fitting (I believe he's based on a lion dog?)

To add to that, I think he may be based on a Sishi, a lion gaurdian in China. "Chinese or Imperial guardian lions are a traditional Chinese architectural ornament. Typically made of stone, they are also known as stone lions or shishi. They are known in colloquial English as lion dogs or foo dogs. " -Wikipedia
So, he would make a good addition to an Asian-themed town.
 
Ken inside and outside
octavian outside
walt kinda inside and out
 
People just seriously forgot about my girl Greta (jkjk)

But seriously, Greta not only has a Japanese themed interior and exterior, her design makes her look like a Geisha. She's a snooty mouse and I have her myself, she's definitely a keeper imo.
 
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Croque? :0
his house exterior and interior is asian and he wears the imperial shirt :00

Wow I didn’t know there were so many of them! Thanks so much for all your suggestions guys. This’ll help me a lot. Now I just have to check which ones I’ll be getting based off of the personalities of the villagers I’ll be replacing.
 
I can't believe no one's mentioned Opal yet! She's super cute and my favourite Chinese inspired villager along with Pekoe 🥰🥰🥰
 
My boy cousteau has the exact same exterior as Pekoe
I have em side by side.
