What's the big deal with Marshal?

I don't really get the obsession either. I do think that Marshal is cute, I love his grumpy little face. But there are a lot of smugs who I like more than him. Kyle, for example, is probably my favorite villager in the game.
 
I like marshal because... money. I'm going to sell him and become a... BELLIONAIRE. Muwahahaha.
No, but seriously. If my boyfriend doesn't want to keep the Marshal that lives in his town (Aka our temp cycle town) He will be sold and.. bells.
 
beacuase he is th cute

It's because that he's not colorful that I like him :I Easy on the eyes :cool: Also, I like the smug personalities (I think they're sweethearts <3 )
 
I like both Caroline and Marshal. I think people like him so much cause hes small and cute and to be honest he reminds me of a nedroid chibi figure...except he moves.Also I'd like to say his freaking face totally mismatches his personality. I mean his face looks more tsundere than smug to me...just saying. lol

I think people care way too much about a villager's popularity. Like, what is the point of all these 'tiers' etc? Everyone likes different villagers and why should people care how popular they are.
Like people who make those polls asking which villager to choose - umm, it's your choice? It's only based on looks, so choose the one you like the look of!
 
What's the deal with people wondering what the deal is with Marshal?

He's cute. He's new. Let him have his moment in the sun.
 
I only really like Marshal because, well, I like villagers with sort of normal designs (Margie, for example). And I don't have any smugs yet, and am having bad luck getting one of them in my campsite. Also, glad to see another Caroline fan! I got her for free on here not too long ago. :D
 
I wouldnt necessarily call him justin bieber bc the thing that baffled me about jb is that he was a legitimate whiny brat and all the qurls STILL loved him. with marshal, hes just a small white squirrel I guess. I originally wasnt fond of any of the smugs and just put marshal as my smug dreamie bc I couldnt pick a better one,which is funny bc now I have 2 smug dreamies lmfao

hes cuter in game than in pics admittedly. I had a friend who had him in her town and he was her favorite villager, and I agreed he was rather cute. it isnt a matter of being dull- fang, the most popular wolf villager, has the dullest color scheme/design of all of them. like he legitimately, for a fact, has the dullest color scheme. it all depends on how cute/pretty they are. infact generic/dull things often are the cute/popular things bc the only reason we consider them generic is because theyre popular.
 
I thought people liked Marshal because he was a representation of the hot, romanticized, emo guy that's popular in Japanese comic books -- IE Kiryu Zero from the series Vampire Knight. That's why he always looks grumpy or sad, despite the fact that he's a Smug villager.

I agree. I don't pay much attention to the popularity charts. My favorite villager is Static because my favorite color is purple and I like the lightning design on his head. I personally don't like Marshall much, but I think it is cute that he is like a marshmallow.
 
Some love for Sallyyy<33 uwu He's just.. cranky looking I guess. That's... cute? And he has sloppy stuff Ech. He's a pretty ****ty smug imo.

PFFF Fang is the most colorful original little snowflake compared to Daisy and Goldie.
 
To me I like Blaire and Poppy more. Marshal is cute and I do have him, but he is not my favorite villager though I do like him.
 
it's not that i think marshal is particularly amazing (though i do really like him :3) it's just that i'm not crazy on any of the other smugs. i really didn't like julian when i had him (though, that was a while ago, maybe i'd like him better now). the only animal i can see myself getting other than marshmallow is o'hare, who looks like such a lil cutie pie with his little hat
 
Hey OP, if you want to know the deal about Marshal you can use our search tool to find the 1000000000,00000000,0000 other threads of this same topic.

Sometimes I wonder why people get warnings for mini-modding, but not for making these.
 
When I first joined TBT I saw Marshal everywhere, so I thought he must be some sort of amazing villager. I thought he'd at least be some sort of different creature like Julian being a unicorn and all, but nope, just a plain old squirrel that seems to sell for ridiculous amounts of bells....
 
i hate Marshal... i just hate him so much for his uncalled for popularity, theres nothing special about him, hes boring and i hate him

but i'll never let him go
 
I like Marshal because he reminds me of my pet dog, Kiby. None of the other dog villagers really look like my dog because they're not fluffy-tailed/small enough. My dog also has an underbite, so Kiby looks grumpy like Marshal.

When I finally got Marshal, I was kinda underwhelmed. His smug personality seems a bit off. Marshal is definitely better off as a cranky. When he flirts, he's so short I feel like a pedo :(

Unrelated to OP, but I wish they would improve the dog villager designs in future editions of ACNL (ex. poodle, shih tzu, etc).

After Marshal moved unexpectedly from my town, I noticed the smug personality didn't have much selection. Maybe that's why? A lot of people also have mostly girl villagers in their towns & they're looking for the pale not-so masculine villagers to adopt.
