I've recently learned that the AC wiki is not the be-all, end-all information source I thought it was. That's not to say that it has bad information or that it lacks anything; on that front, it is very helpful. But I've realized that many villagers that I previously thought were ugly or undesirable due to their official pictures, are actually totally adorable when you get them in-game.
For example, Bree the snooty mouse looks kind of weird and cross-eyed in her picture:
... but in-game she is literally so cute. Her eyes especially!
And Rodney the smug hamster. From his picture, I always thought he resembled a sleazy, acne-ridden teenager:
but then I met him in my cycling town and realized that he is literally one of the most adorable villagers ever.
Look at that smile!! <3333
I've since adopted both of them in my main town, and I've learned to always visit dream towns to see villagers in action instead of just trusting the pictures! Are there any villagers you guys think have an awful picture on the wiki but when you get them in-game are really really cute or cool?
