So Hamphrey asked to leave on Wednesday so today I’m looking for a new villager. He was my only cranky so I’d like a new one. Chow is in my campsite. Not that impressed. And I’m currently on a NM island with spike. Thoughts? Any cranky recommendations?
Edit: so I had passed up spike and didn’t find another cranky till my last Nmt. It was Chief. So I invited him. Thanks for all the recommendations

Crankies seem to be the most similar to how they were in New Leaf so they are a must have personality for me.

Some good crankies are Fang, Bruce, Butch or Apollo. Or really any cranky wolf is good in my opinion.
 
I love crankies. I had Gaston and Harry in NL; initially I didn’t like Gaston, but he eventually grew on me. If I had more room for more villagers, I’d definitely love to have Gaston again. My favorite cranky though has to be Roscoe; I love how his eyes turn yellow when he gets annoyed or angry. I think Roscoe has quite a unique appearance.
 
I know most of you guys don't like gorillas, so I won't go there. 😩

My next fav would be Kabuki. He was my first cranky in the GameCube version.
 
What species of animal do you like the most? Or what species don't you have? Do you like more colorful animals or do you prefer more realistic looking animals?
 
Depends on what species or look you like, as said above. I would recommend Dobie, Tom, or Wolfgang. Maybe we can give you better recommendations if we know what you are looking for though.
 
I don’t mind colorful depending on the colors. Cool color like purples,blues. I do like realistic colors as well. No hamsters please. I like most of the animals and I prefer wild animals as opposed to domestics I do like cats though

I've had Static in New Leaf for years and now also in New Horizons.He's still one of the best crankies.

I also can recommend Cyd.He's been fun so far.
 
i like them! they act more like grandpas than they do cranky now but they’re still really fun to have around! i kind of miss them yelling at me, though lmaoo

i recommend dobie! i’ve got him on my island and he’s great - there’s no beating an elderly cranky wolf :P
 
Personally I love Tom, but I think Butch, Murphy, and Gonzo are also really cute! I love Tom's cranky personality because he seems like this mean old grandpa but when you get to know him he has such a soft side and is so sweet!
