anyone else disagree with a villager's personality?

My friend was shocked to find out Muffy was an Uchi... And at first glance, I thought she would be a Snooty when I saw her in New Leaf.

Came here to say this! I love Muffy but I feel like her elegant goth aesthetic would suit a snooty personality so much better. Uchi seems too tomboyish for her.
 
Velma looks like an Uchi to me but she's Snooty.
I think it's actually pretty cool though when they don't exactly look their personality type.
When the new character images were released I was sure Judy would be Peppy too.
 
A lot of the normal types should be changed tbh.
It's the most common female personality type. The wiki says there are 71 total as of New Horizons. A few of them have been discontinued though, but still.

Here are just a few normals that could easily be changed in to different types...

Alice, Annalisa, Coco, Jambette, Pekoe, Rhonda, Sandy, Tia.

If only Sandy was Uchi... I would get her in a heartbeat.. but there are just so many other normals I like.

Don't even get me started on how many pink animals are normal. I'm glad I never did a pastel theme because of this, hah.​
 
I really like that not all villagers are just stereotypes of their personality. It allows people with different styles and preferences to still have a range of personalities across the villagers they like. It’s more realistic, too. Not all bubbly people adore pink and have traditionally feminine hobbies. Not all people who are into fitness have a broad, muscular physique or prefer to fill their house with weightlifting equipment.

That’s part of why I tend to prefer the unpopular villagers, too. They add the charm of variety that makes the game what it is!
 
I was kind of surprised when i scanned in Raddle to see that he was a Lazy. I kinda assumed he'd fall more under cranky or smug. I guess being a lazy doctor is kind of lol...so it doesn't really bug me just didn't expect it.
 
How is Rooney a cranky villager and not a jock? it confused me when I first saw him because he looks like a jock down to is house and his appearance!
 
so i've been thinking about this for a while and i just don't think judy suits being a snooty villager
it's mainly becaise of her look:
☆her pastel design
☆glittery eyes
☆fairytale dress
☆toy-like furniture
it just seems pretty childish, don't get me wrong i love judy and i can't wait to get her on my island, but i just feel she would have been better as a normal or even peppy ☆

another one is lucha
he was my brother's first campsite villager and i thought he must be a jock
he is designed like a wrestler AND his house is literally sport themed
i was legit shocked when i found out he was a smug

does anyone else have that one villager they just don't think their personality suits them??
I thought Judy was peppy!?
 
I totally forgot about that as I’ve never had him in my town! I saw him listed as cranky somewhere the other day and found it so strange, it makes total sense they’ve changed it

Smug and Uchi were new personalities in New Leaf. A lot of villagers got moved to them so that they could make it more even (still isn't) without making too many new characters.
 
I thought this thread was gonna be about which personality do you have a personal problem with lol and I was gonna say lazy because I hate how they talk about the bugs in their floor!! its gross!! lmao

but anyways I think Judy is ok as a snooty. Maybe she isn't the staple snooty vibe but its good to have some diversity, makes up for the repetitive dialogue.
 
Tbh I don't mind this sort of thing at all, in fact I like when the way a villager looks doesn't necessarily match their personality and think it makes things more varied within the personalities! You can also come up headcanons about why it's that way too, for example I always thought Puck was a jock because of his whole hockey theme for ages until I found out he was a lazy. Now I think, based on that + his Pocket Camp bio saying that he actually does play hockey and is good at it, that he's usually too lazy to get up and exercise and mostly learned the rules of hockey from watching it on TV. So when he does feel like getting up and playing some hockey he's better at it than you'd expect based on how he always talks about eating and sleeping!

ETA: Also wanna add that like... sometimes this adds more personality variety within species too which is great, imo. All the people saying Audie looks like or even should've been a snooty, I agree on the former but not the latter simply because we have just 11 wolves in NH and of them 5 are cranky, 3 are snooty, 1 is smug, 1 is normal, and 1 is peppy. I expected Audie to bump the snooty wolf count up to 4 and was pleasantly surprised when she didn't, and was instead an unrepresented personality for the wolves! This is also why I was sad that Dobie got changed to cranky--not only is the concept of a lazy old man very cute to me but there are now no lazy wolves--and why I desperately hope that if Tarou and Woolio ever come back they stay as jocks. Also Judy, she fits the snooty aesthetic just fine imo (there are several pastel snooties, I mean, did we all forget Diana and Francine? And speaking of Francine, Judy has very nearly the same expression as her in their official renders. she looks like one to me and I think it's just the shoujo eyes throwing people off) but she's also the first snooty cub!

I thought Dom would be a Lazy, too! Roald also doesn't look like a Jock to me (or maybe I'm just stereotyping my rounder villagers as Lazy D: )
 
why is cyd cranky, he doesnt even look that old, he shoulda been jock imo
 
Bella’s punk rock look makes me feel like she should be Sisterly/Uchi, not Peppy. It feels more in line with that personality.

Also, Fang looks more like a Snooty than a Grumpy... I still like him a lot, though.
 
Just squints a lot and it makes her look devious. Although all she does on my island is sing and run around with a stick.

tbh i thought she was normal til last week aha
Me too. I went to do the campsite trick a while ago and kicked out all my normals thinking she was normal. Then had to fix my town up when finding out she is snooty.

tbh a lot of the crankies don't look/"feel" old to me for some reason and it actually confused me in new leaf when i found out my villagers that just kinda acted like slightly out of touch dads/grandpas were supposed to be a cranky personality type! i just started pretending that some of them actually are old while others just act like they are.
 
I had Chief in Wild World and his personality fit him well. Chief being cranky in the last two games just doesn't work for me anymore. I get the feeling they were going to change his personality in this game, but have up after giving him that preppy sweater. I think how he looks he would fit more as a smug personality type now.

honestly, this is kinda why i've been thinking lately that i wish there would be some crankies that act like out of touch and somewhat grumpy old men the way that crankies are now, and others that act more just like regular people who are angry a lot instead of talking about having old, achy bones and not knowing how to use a computer or cellphone. not that i don't like the old man crankies too but it just feels weird on some of them so i think being able to have both would be nice... i feel like most personalities could benefit from this sort of thing.
