What villagers do you think deserve more love/attention?

Bianca is adorable and not popular enough! By far my favorite peppy, she's a snow leopard and looks absolutely stunning, and really fits the whole popstar energy peppies have now.

Others would be Tucker, Piper, Poncho, Boone, Sydney, Blanche, Gala and Nana.

I bumped into Bianca while island hopping for another character. If I wasn't so pepped out from the beginning (got Merry and Marina as part of my first 5) I probably would have picked her as an amiibo.
 
Ed (horse) - Surprised to see he gets so much hate. His colors may not be the best, but I do like his design otherwise.
Annalise (horse) - She's really adorable. I got her Amiibo card for around $3. I was shocked she is still that unpopular.
Cleo (horse) - She's also adorable. Perhaps my favorite horse.

When someone complains about a villager being "too plain", they lose me. I get loving the unique, wacky villagers, I do, and there are plenty that I love, too... But having "plain" villagers that are nice to look at is far from a bad thing. I've seen Robin (bird), Purrl (cat), Elmer (horse), Winnie (horse), and even the wolves (understand I've only seen that once, they are generally loved, and for good reason!) get referred to as plain and boring.

I can think of some really popular villagers that have that plain look as well, and that does confuse me why people judge two different villagers that are both "plain" so harshly apart.

Otherwise, I'm a fan of bird villagers, ostriches, and even the chickens. Ostriches and chickens have pretty consistently good designs versus other species.

But hey, you all, loving unappreciated villagers opens them up to us really easily. Their Amiibo cards are very cheap!

Grumpy old Koala is not well liked and I find that sad. Look at those bushy white Eyebrows! But that’s probably for all Koalas, other than Melba.

Also anything in Tier 6, like Del, Boris, Cheri, Rooney, etc.

Roscoe is also unique, with being a Black Horse with Red Eyes. I always found that really cool.

Also forgot about Kidd. Was never that high on someone’s List, like all other Goats, before Sherb was a thing.

From what I've seen, I really feel like tigers are an underappreciated species. There are lots of cute ones, and Bianca is lovely.
 
i forgot about the tigers, i love bianca so much and i recently got an amiibo of rolf from one of the packs and i really like his design
i hadn't actually seen him until i got the card
 
deirdre! she's my absolute fav! I think that a lot of the deer have good design and she tends to get overshadowed by the popular ones unfortunately
I also really like blanche a lot! she was my fav for a bit just to spite my bf's hate against snooty villagers, but she genuinely does have really good design and even tho she's not my fav anymore i'm still shocked she's not more popular

I never hear anyone talk about Gloria and she was one of my favorite villagers in New Leaf.

I was going to mention Gloria! I love her design. I never see anyone talking about Bree the mouse either, even though I think she has the look of a villager destined for popularity lol. The ostrich villagers are nice, but even the most sought after ones don't seem to be that high up on the popularity scale.

My number one cranky is Gruff (he's a goat! Billy goat Gruff!) but I suppose I can see how others might not like him as much, so maybe he doesn't fit into this conversation. Though I like his features, even I would prefer a slightly toned-down color scheme. As it is he looks poisonous.

Some personalities are more crowded with conventionally cute or pretty characters. Snooty has: Diana, Ankha, a couple of wolves... most people are probably limiting their town to one or two snooty villagers since players generally want at least one of each personality. Normal animals suffer from this even more. It's like they took all of the most "cutesy" characters and stuck them together in normal. So you end up with Bluebear, who I agree is cute, competing with like three other villagers (Maple comes to mind) who are cute in a similar way.

I had no idea Tasha existed until I saw this thread, and I've been playing since the gamecube days. I agree, she has a great look! My first thought when I saw her was: "otter!?". Nice colors too! I'm glad you brought her to my attention. Even if she's not actually an otter, but a squirrel.

I found Vivian on an island and immediately invited her. She's gorgeous. I feel like she's often overshadowed by some of the more popular female wolves like Audie, Freya, Whitney, and Skye, but Vivian is so elegant, reminds me of a German Shepherd.

Ah, Blanche! I passed her up two times when searching for islands and I regretted it later. I'm not even sure what I was looking for. She's lovely.
 
Roscoe is awesome! My fiancé found him on a mystery island when we were looking for a cranky villager to “finish” our town and we decided to invite him. I’m not a huge fan of AC horses but enjoy having varied species and I have grown to love him!

Gonzo is adorable too.

Vivian is precious. I love her so much. I hope someday I can have her on my island.
 
whitney is my favourite wolf villager but vivian is a close second
both are so pretty
i'm not actually a fan of freya and audie but it's probably just the bright colours i don't like
 
I think hamlet should be more popular he is honestly the cutest lil dud ever. I don’t know why he’s not popular when he’s so freakin cute. I also think axel deserves more love I mean what other character has a smile like his. He’s so unique and his colour is so cute
