House[edit]
InCity Folk[edit]
InAnimal Crossing: City Folk, Carmen's moon-themedhouse interior is likely a reference to the Japanese myth of themoon rabbit. According to the myth, the dark side of the moon looks like a rabbit making mochi (a Japanese snack associated with the New Year). This house trait is shared with four other rabbit villagers:Dotty's moon-themed house interior in all games exceptAnimal Crossing,Animal Crossing: New Leaf, andAnimal Crossing: New Horizons;Mira's moon base-themed house interior inAnimal Crossing: New Leaf;Ruby's moon-themed house interior in all of her game appearances; andSasha's moon-themed house request inAnimal Crossing: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise. Her house interior heavily resemblesOctavian's, with the main difference being that she has alunar lander instead of aflying saucer, as well as having slightly different furniture on the left and right sides.
