ACNH Villager Rankdown (#1 and #2 HAVE BEEN POSTED!)

At this point 3 of my top 4 and 3 of my bottom 4 have already had their ranks revealed. I'm curious to see when the last 1 in my top 4 and the last 1 in my bottom 4 will appear
It’ll be interesting to see when they appear... 🤔

I feel bad for ranking Sprinkle so low because she's pretty cute; I absolutely adore the aqua swirl on her head, which is why she quickly became one of my favourites when I first saw her, but then I realized that there's not much else that really stands out about her, especially compared to the other peppies, which is why my enthusiasm for her faded over time and I ranked her as low as I did. I think it's her eyes - Peanut can pull off those eyes well, but for some reason it doesn't work as well for Sprinkle. Her face just isn't cutesy enough to match her swirl, I guess. I'm surprised she got third among the public!

I'm still a little sad to see Sprinkle go because I still like her, but not too sad considering there are 19 villagers I ranked above her.
Yeah, the eyes are a minor turn-off for me too! 😕
 
Not a huge fan of sprinkle, though she is cute, and my friend has her and very much love her. I do like her round little body. In general, I don’t like villagers who are winter themed for whatever reason, though obviously I got over it with flurry, who only has slight ‘winter’ accents. I also really hate all the house that have ice furniture, enough that it makes it hard for me to really love any of the penguins or any villagers that has it in their house. Sprinkle is just too much with her winter pastel coloring for me to really love her, but at the same time she otherwise has a very cute design and is memorable.

another interesting lesson for me about my preferences - I don’t really like pastel villagers or heavily ‘themed’ villagers -unless the theme is Japanese I guess, because I love Genji, Kabuki, Annalisa, and Croque).

3 of my bottom 4 are left and I have a feeling I am going to be disappointed when they do show up...but I have one very beloved favorite left, and another villager I placed in my top 4 left, so cautiously hopeful about that.

I actually really like the houses with the ice furniture and Sprinkle’s house is just 👌. I can’t remember your top 4 and bottom 4, so we’ll see...

i really don’t know why I dislike them. They look uncomfortable to me, but that’s so irrational, because it is perfect for a penguin. I have no idea really, and it is a weird hang up! 😅
 
I had Sprinkle in my NL town, and I enjoyed her while she was there. I agree that’s she’s cute and that her house is very nice, but there are other peppies that I like more than her because they’re a bit more interesting design-wise imo. Though NH Sprinkle has the play hobby, so it’s cute seeing her airplane around town.

Honestly I’ve been thinking about making a dedicated winter area on my island, and someone like Hans or Sprinkle would be perfect to live there.
 
Wow, I’m pleasantly surprised Sprinkle made it this far! She’s very adorable, but I also agree that she isn’t as high up there compared to the other peppies. But her house is absolutely beautiful though, I love all the ice furniture!

Yeah, I agree that she isn’t as cute as some of the other Peppies. I love to see another ice furniture fan! 😊
 
I must have missed Sprinkle's reveal yesterday. Poor Sprinkle! Oh well, maybe I'll have to bring her to my island to make up for her ranking 😂 but all things considered, I never even thought she'd make the top 50 let alone be in the final round! Placing 16 is really great considering how many villagers we've ranked!

That’s true. Even getting in #24 is a huge accomplishment! 😅
 
I hope cheri shows up high on the list, i'd be really excited. she's my all time fav C:

sorry, but Cheri actually was not among the 140 original villagers in the running (each of us 7 judges nominated 20 villagers)

glad to have some Cheri love making an appearance though! My personal favorite is Tabby, another peppies. A lot of the peppies have really great designs, and personally I love their enthusiastic and friendly personalities.

here’s who made the top 24, whose final placements you are now seeing. Maybe there’s someone else you can happily root for in there:


Round 8: The Final Round
View attachment 330631

For everyone: We've officially narrowed it down to our Top 24. Your job now is to rank the remaining 24 contestants from 1 to 24, with #1 being the person you want to win the most.

For the rankers: You are required to submit write-ups for your Top 4 villagers and your Bottom 4 villagers, at a minimum (for a total of 8 write-ups). There is no word requirement, but at a minimum, the write-up should explain why you ranked that person at the top or bottom of your list. Write-ups can also include pictures or videos.

For the public: You guys can send me your rankings of the villagers through PM. Public voters may also submit write-ups by private message to me before the deadline.

Here is your Top 24...
  1. Bangle
  2. Beau
  3. Bruce
  4. Canberra
  5. Colton

The voting will close once all 7 rankers have sent me their rankings and write-ups. If I do not receive the rankings/write-ups by Saturday, November 7th (and you have not asked for an extension) I will calculate the final results without your rankings. ☹

wonderful, Bangle is my favorite in the running villager too! 🥰

and no problem, it’s been a long, ongoing game/event and I know it could be confusing from the outside.

I know one ranker is going to really upset by this ranking. Bangle is a villager I have always felt neutral towards. She’s pretty cute, but her colors have never really appealed for me. I will admit that she looks really cute in the image I provided. She's also one of the better tigers that are in the game. This is kind of sad, but my fondest memories of Bangle are when I was hunting for my first Peppy and I rejected her. Maybe I would like her better if I actually had her in my town. I’ll let the other rankers give you a better summary of Bangle.

Ranker/Public Write-Ups
@Asarena - Bangle is my second favorite tiger after Bianca. The yellow stripes go really well with her brown fur. The only things that kind of bug me are her singular light color eyelashes.

@Verecund - I actually like Bangle better than Olaf (although still less than everyone else above him), but I'm putting her below him because I nominated her twice and she's still here. What can I say - I'm stubborn. ;\ I don't even dislike Bangle at all; it's just that I'm not enthusiastic about her and she doesn't interest me enough. She's actually pretty cute, though, and the bright yellow markings on her are cool. But with so many great villagers, there has to be something to really stand out, and she's not cute enough to do that, and she just doesn't match up to the others in here.

@WaileaNoRei - To be honest, Bangle was not a villager I expected to become a favorite. I was island hoping for my three first move-ins and had a limited number of tickets. I’d passed up a few villagers, don’t remember them all but definitely Puddles and Audie were in there. I didn’t know what I was looking for and was worried I had made a mistake in passing up Audie (all I knew was that she was popular, and at the time I didn’t know whether that was for a concrete reason or not). But then there was Bangle, and she was cute enough. I planned to have her for a while and then hopefully let her move out quickly to get a villager I liked more. Then one day I just realized...she was like the life of my island. She’s a great villager. I know there are no real differences but I swear she’s just extra special. Always out and about, always doing different activities – singing, treasure hunts, playing, fashioning (don’t know what to call it), hanging out with the other villagers. She’s so fun to dress up, her cheery look always makes me feel better. Originally, I wasn’t sure I liked the tiger villagers. Their heads are quite large and I didn’t know if I completely liked the design. But Bangle has such great expressiveness, and I find her body is just stocky enough to balance out her head. Can’t imagine my island without Bangle now, in a strange way I feel she is the villager Island Rep (Genji may have been around longer but he’s got his own weird jock stuff to do).
