'''K.K. Slider''' ({{ja|とたけけ|Totakeke}}, ''Totakeke'') is a character in the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} series of video games.

==Origin==
K.K. Slider is a special character who can be found in all of the ''Animal Crossing'' games since the original, performing on Saturday from 8:00 PM (or all day, albeit will not take any song requests until 6:00 PM in ''{{s|nookipedia|Animal Crossing: New Horizons}}'') to midnight at different locations depending on the game (such as the {{s|nookipedia|Train Station}}, {{s|nookipedia|The Roost}}, {{s|nookipedia|Club LOL}}, or {{s|nookipedia|Resident Services}}). If the [[Villager|player]] speaks to him, he will play them a song and then give them a recording (or aircheck) of that song that they can play via a stereo at their house. On non-Saturday nights in ''New Leaf'' and on the {{s|nookipedia|archipelago}} on some nights in the ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Happy Home Paradise|Happy Home Paradise]]'' DLC for ''New Horizons'', he plays under the guise of "DJ KK" (who appears as a [[List of SSB4 trophies (Animal Crossing series)|trophy in ''SSB4'']] and a [[List of spirits (Animal Crossing series)|spirit in ''SSBU'']]). ''Super Smash Bros.'' takes from his performances in other games and has him only show up on Saturday nights.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', K.K. Slider appears as a [[trophy]] with his guitar with the title "Totakeke", his Japanese name. As ''Animal Crossing'' had not yet been released in America at the time of ''Melee''{{'}}s release, his American trophy puts his home game as "Future Release".

===Trophy===

|desc=A wandering musician whose daily life is a bit of a mystery. He plays in front of the [[nookipedia:Train Station|train station]] every Saturday night starting at 8:00 p.m. He has a [[nookipedia:Category:K.K. Slider Songs|large repertoire]] and plays both old and new hits from all over the world. His music is so ingrained in the villagers that it's impossible to imagine them living without it.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
===As a background character===
[[File:Smashville5.jpg|thumb|K.K. Slider playing at Smashville.]]
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', in addition to being a trophy and a [[sticker]], K.K. Slider cameos on the [[Smashville]] stage, where he plays one of his songs when the stage is played between 8:00 PM and midnight on a Saturday, true to his role in the ''Animal Crossing'' games. His voice can be heard in many of these arrangements on the [[Smashville]] stage, namely:

*{{SSBBMusicLink|Animal Crossing|Go K.K. Rider!}}
*{{SSBBMusicLink|Animal Crossing|2:00 a.m.}}
*'''K.K. Cruisin' '''
*'''K.K. Western'''
*'''K.K. Gumbo'''
*'''Rockin' K.K.'''
*'''DJ K.K.'''
*'''K.K. Condor'''
<small>'''Bolded [[List of SSBB Music (Animal Crossing series)#K.K. Slider's Performance|tracks are only played during concerts;]] the other two can be chosen from [[My Music]].'''</small>

Although K.K. Slider only plays from 8:00-Midnight on Saturday nights, K.K. Slider can be seen preparing for his performance earlier than 8. Additionally, while Animal Crossing Villagers usually pay full attention to the fight, if K.K. Slider is performing, then the villagers' attention will be focused on him instead.

[[Event 26: The Slow and Easy Life]] is a special exception, and will always be set during a performance of ''Rockin' K.K.'' regardless of the actual time of day.

===Trophy===
K.K. Slider's trophy is [[List of challenges (SSBB)|obtained]] by unlocking all songs in the game.
