Fun fact: Kitsune grow more tails as they age and become wiser. Redd only has one tail, which practically makes him a baby. It also means he's very inexperienced at tricking people, hence his fake art is easy to spot.
-
Everyone calls Tom Nook greedy but a 0% interest loan with no time limit to pay it back is the actual dream.
-
My take on the whole 'ugly villagers' thing in NH is that since they removed big aspects of their personalities, the villagers became blank slates, more like objects. So instead of liking characters for their personalities, you have to like them for their looks, hence the huge preference for cute characters rather than likeable ones because, well, they're all so copy-and-pasted that they're all meant to be likeable.
-
My favorite theory about Zipper is that its actually Tom Nook in disguise, and he's dressing up to entertain Timmy and Tommy. It's a nice contrast to all the creepy theories, and it's kinda cute to think about it.
-
a time stamp just called “Raymond” is fucking terrifying
-
fun fact: the Animal Crossing community always had a reputation for being wholesome and kind before New Horizons, but it was always the way people think it is currently. villager trading in New Leaf was way more brutal than it is in New Horizons lmao
-
I do understand getting rid of Resetti, as funny as he was. I was also made to type out "i am dirt" repeatedly, and as a young kid that was already being abused at home and mistreated at school it just wasn't really something I wanted in my cute little animal game tbh. I wish they would've at least kept him optional though because now as an adult I just find him funny
-
It's such a shame that the Japanese themed items, holidays and gameplay elements were taken out for the US release. I think it would have been a great opportunity to teach Western players about Japanese culture.
-
Another thing about Tom Nook is that in one of the early Japanese games, when you go into the store at late hours, tom nook is found sleeping in his shop. So the fact that he gives you a house but doesn't have one himself to sleep in is so sad and shows his character
-
my favorite theory is that the player character is actually playing pretend and the villagers are their stuffed animals. and the reason you get letters from your mom is because she wants to support your imagination. very wholesome compared to a lot of the other edgier theories lol
-
This game was wild. I had Raymond, but didn't treat him differently than my other villagers. I caught him in a screenshot selling off another villager, and within minutes I was flooded with constant discord pings asking me my offer. Virtual cat was worth more than my life.
-
I hunted Raymond because my great grandpas name was Raymond and he had one blue eye and one green eye! So it’s like having papa back <3
-
You missed the opportunity to name the Raymond segment “Everybody loves Raymond”
-
The shift of the fandom to wanting only aesthetically pleasing villagers makes sense since they took away varying personalities and gave all of them the same bland dialogue. What else is there to enjoy about them when the only thing differentiating them is their look?
-
"It seemed everybody loved Raymond" this can go 2 ways.
-
as someone who works at a Build-A-Bear, it would've been an actual stock NIGHTMARE for us to have actual plushies for villagers. I understand people wanting their fav characters but there's hundreds of villagers and I don't understand how both Nintendo and BAB would've handled how/which villagers to release
-
Let's not forget the best upgrade from Wild World to New Leaf: You could finally stack fruits in baskets in your inventory!! :D
-
Sadly, most ACNH horror islands got mass reported along with star trees. Some people just cant imagine the game not revolving around them
-
What’s crazy is when I first ever used the dream feature in new leaf, with no knowledge of what the function was. I randomly got taken to the first horror town mentioned in this video. I was pretty creeped out but mostly confused and I sent many pictures to my friends. It wasn’t until much later that I was made aware it was an extremely famous town. What luck

41:58: This part just made me realize that Aggretsuko and animal crossing would make such a good (strange, but good) crossover!
