Who they are

On the official English character page, Yoh is Below 10 and Rokkaku’s shy adoptive daughter. She likes animals and can hear the voices from the mountain. The official page does not explain those voices.

The same page does not list a romance, dating, or marriage field for any villager. Friendship gifts are a separate system.

Gifts

Liked examples recorded by one Traditional Chinese guide: kids’ curry, strawberry cake, milk agar, tulip.

Disliked examples from that same single source: eggplant set meal, stuffed peppers, eggplant, green pepper. English item names are not confirmed on an official list, so these stay in the community wording.

What is not published

Event dates, required friendship ranks, and the ending of this villager’s personal story are not on the official page. Those fields stay empty here.

Sources and verification

Source review updated 2026-10-28. Publisher statements and store listings may share a source; two links alone do not establish independent confirmation. Unless an independent cross-check is explicitly identified, treat a named publisher or store claim as a single-source statement. Access restrictions and disagreements are marked in the article.
