Aww! At least 2 stayed :0
My original 5 were great, I still miss the other 4 (yup thats right! I still have one and he's not leaving! ♡)
They were Melba (who I am starting to miss dearly), Lucky, Hopper, Bubbles, and Miranda. Hopper was the first to go, then Lucky asked to leave but I didn't let him, then Bubbles left, then Miranda did. And it was down to Melba and Lucky. The thing is Lucky was always my favorite XD
If he ever asked to leave, I would say no. But Melba, she never asked to leave, EVER. And I'm starting to miss the loyalty she shared with me. So I reset cause I wanted a new town layout. But I have another AC:NL file so of course I transferred all my bells, items, and even villagers I wanted to keep onto that file. When Lucky left in my original town, he seemed super sad and that made me sad. :')
But he said, maybe I'll see you again someday and he was right. Melba never left my original town by the way, I just reset with her right in it.
