A villager you didn't expect to be popular and one you thought would?

[QoQ]

The first town I ever had (way at the beginning lol), I got Marshal and was not a fan of him at all. For one he looked like an a$$hole and two his house is really boring (IMO). I'll admit he grew a little on me in the end...

Kidd the goat is such a simple yet great looking villager. Not to mention a gentleman and smug. He could fit well with almost any towns theme.

A villager I didn't expect to be popular - Octavian. I had him in Wild World once and I HATED him. I was happy when I went into his house one day and all his stuff was boxed up.

A villager I would have expected to be popular - Eunice. She has a simple design, and she's a normal villager. I'm surprised I don't see many people looking for her.

I didn't expect Ankha to be popular. I had her in City Folk and HATED her.

I thought Daisy would be popular. She's adorable.

I never thought Fang would be popular. He just looks like any old wolf to me.

 

[Selky]

I thought Alfonso would be more popular. Supposedly he's in the AC movie though I haven't seen it. However, I know people say the others that were are very popular aka Whitney, Rosie, Apollo, etc...

I was kinda shocked Bob was so popular...

And I like Sterling alot :x Egyptian cat is cool but the knight falcon isnt.

Both were very enjoyable neighbors for me.

I'm surprised Shep is as popular as he is. Guess I just don't see the appeal ahah.

Villager I did not expect to be popular? Marshal, Lolly, Fang, Whitney, & Bob

Villagers I expected to be popular?
1. Pekoe (I figured she would be in as high up as Maple - another cute normal cub)
2. Tucker (a lazy mammoth I figured people would go crazy over him)
3. Big Top, Rocket, Agent S (figured as super heroes they would get more love)
4. Savannah & Boone (not enough appreciation for zebras and mandrills I guess)
5. Ribbot (why is new leafs only robot all the way in tier 3?)
6. Flora (very unique, and she is a frikken flamingo! should be higher tier 2 imo)

I'm sure Ankha was never as popular as she is before NL. All the other "tier 1" villagers I can understand why they're popular, even if I might not want some of them myself. I wouldn't have expected Marshall and Merengue to be quite as popular as they are either. I'm surprised Kyle isn't more popular, especially as he's smug AND a wolf. Felicity, Bunnie and Bluebear are really adorable peppies but only tier 3. Shari is by far the cutest uchi, imo, but very few people seem interested in her. Come on, she's like a monkey version of Fauna! It's obvious they were both designed by the same person, I guess people just don't like the monkeys. Daisy, Midge and Melba are super cute too, but Daisy is tier four and the other two are tier five. I guess there's so many cute normals it's hard to stand out. There's a ton more I could go on about, but I'd be here all night, there's too many villagers I like, haha.

I'm really shocked pietro is popular? He's a creepy clown sheep... I expected him to be one that people would be angry to have in their towns...

 

[nammie]

Didn't expect Rosie to be popular lol, I think she was one of my first few villagers in WW and I mean I liked her alright but I didn't think she was super cute or anything???

And I expected Blanche and Filbert to be more popular than they are now lol

 

[SuperSparky1]

A lot of cute underrated dogs....

Cough, BISKIT, Cough!

 

[Shydragon]

I didn't think Fauna was all that popular. She seems kind of... generic to me. I thought Elvis would be a lot more popular because I had him in WW and he was my favorite almost instantly!

Completely agree with your list of ones who should be!

I agree! The cats seem to be way more popular than the dogs, which I find strange, and I say that as a cat person. I just don't understand how Bob can be a tier 2 lazy when Bones and Walker are tier 5.

No doubt. Bones too.

He is pretty awesome. One of the most bad a$$ looking characters. With bad a$$ music. + he's the King Lion and has 2 really awesome thrones in his house.

Yeah most of the cats are just so similar I don't really get why they can all be so popular.
