Thoughts on Julia?

Rex was my first villager to go. Nice enough guy, but just don't care for the lion design and coupled with the lazy dialogue, didn't work for.

Rex was actually the last person in my campsite funnily enough, but I agree. I love Elvis for his king theme and Rory's design is definitely the least boring of the lions, but they're really the only two lions I like. I don't think they're ugly by any stretch, but most of them just aren't that interesting imo.
 
I absolutely love her! I found her on a mystery island and had her for a while. I let her leave when she asked to move just because I really wanted to give Blanche a try, but she's really great.

I love her and think she’s one of the prettiest villagers in the game. I just wish they’d kept her peppy like she used to be. She’s still in my Top 3 options for a Snooty—and the only reason she’s not my No 1 pick is because her design just looks slightly less snooty than the other two (Blanche and Whitney)

her personality was always snooty, it never changed, just to let you know, according to acwiki anyway

Julia is pretty but not my all time favorite villager

It doesn’t specifically list her personality for each game (from what I see at least), so there’s a possibility they’re just going off of what she has been in the recent titles.

I know I’ve read it before a few times, and just found it stated on another Wiki. It specifically says she was peppy when first introduced in Animal Forest e+

Maybe someone else can shed some conclusive light on it? I haven’t played that game.
 
Update: I caved and claimed her! Flo is in boxes now so I’ll be getting my first snooty villager tomorrow. If I don’t like her, then I’ll just TT her out or something (assuming the 10th villager thing not being able to leave is indeed a myth). Thanks for the help, everyone! :)

Also not related, but if anyone’s looking for Flo, feel free to contact me! She was one of my original two so I’m sad to see her go, but I’d love to give her a loving new home to someone who wants her.

Well, I'll be the one dissenting voice =P

I don't like her for one main reason... that's what peacocks look like, not peahens! That design belongs to a Smug. Think how perfect it would be to have a smug peacock villager! I find it somewhat irritating that, just because an animal is pretty and decorated, it has to be female? I find this is kind of a common rut that artists can fall into - males are normal, and females are decorative. What happened to Pavé?! Dudes can be fabulous too.

unless someone has a copy of ace+ and a copy of Julia’s card, its hard to verify (unless someone has a save editor)

I like to think Julia dyes her feathers (and pave is fabulous, I love him so much)

I’ve seen people say she me be trans, and I’ve kind of accepted that head canon for myself. That said, I do agree that it’s a shame that pretty designs are usually only used for females. Poor cartoon men—they don’t even get to have eyelashes lol

Tsk, silly, everyone knows only girls have eyelashes and only boys have eyebrows! That's how you can tell which mona lisa is fake - because mona lisa is a girl so she shouldn't have eyebrows!

Personally I think she'd be a great counter to Phoebe because of her green/blue/orange against Phoebe's red/yellow/indigo. You'd have a pretty ostrich rainbow!

As for Elvis/Rory, if you're not feeling like having that many repeat species my question would be how attached are you to Rory truly, apart from how underrated you feel he is? Since you seem to like Elvis a lot. I won't repeat what others are saying here, and believe me I'd have adopted Rory myself when I saw him on an island if I was open to having a second jock, he's kinda cute!, but do you yourself actually like having him around enough that he is worth keeping along with Elvis, Phoebe and Julia?

Ah yes, the true two genders: eyelashes and eyebrows!

What if you have neither, what does that make you?

This is actually a great way of looking at it. I like him plenty, but I’ve actually been thinking about letting him go if he ever decides to leave or I get lucky with my campsite again. I like him a lot, but I really want to get my hands on a jock that doesn’t look anything like one, like Roald or Dom (especially the latter because ohmygodhisface although that would put me at 2 sheep), because I think they’re hilarious and adorable. In comparison to Elvis, Phoebe, and now Julia, he’ll probably be my least favorite of the bunch once Julia has some time to settle in so I’d be totally willing to set him free.

Also, as someone who likes to fill in the blanks on my own, I love this “Julia is trans” headcanon. I‘m a sucker for using my imagination to add a little bit of extra personality to my villagers, like Beau being a stoner (“Outdoor stuff? But indoors! Ohhh man! It’s supposed to be outside, but... A HUH HUH HUH!”) or Audie wanting to be a pop star because the original ACNL grandma Audie is an internet sensation. I’m actually quite excited to have Julia in my town now!
 
she’s great!! i have her on my island and she’s such a pretty villager! she’s super nice for a snooty but she’s still good and plus, she has a pretty interior aha
 
ok gloria is so pretty, she’s literally a perfect peacock <3 (even tho female peacocks don’t look like that)
her eye color is gorgeous and her feathers are soooo cute as well she’s so underrated
 
I adore her! I’m happy she’s a snooty as I’m not the biggest fan of peppies, plus to me snooty fits the peacock vibe better. They are so proud of their gorgeous plumage irl.

That being said you can see from my villager list I have a lot of pairs. I like having two of species myself, it makes me feel like that animal has a “buddy”. I’m not pair exclusive but I think two of a kind is fun. :)

My current pairs:
Squirrels: Marshal and Pecan
Horses: Roscoe and Buck
Ostriches: Julia and Cranston

I had Soleil and Apple at one point but I lost Soleil organizing a trade that fell though, Pecan took her place.
