Blanca’s Missing (face and all)

[Fey]

Anybody else disappointed Blanca didn’t make an appearance today?
I’m not as optimistic as some about what all they’re going to bring back or add, but I really thought they might surprise us with her ;ェ;

Of course there’s already a lot going on, but I would’ve gladly waited on Zipper and the Eggpocalypse if it meant having April Fools Day instead!

I really miss Blanca, I totally forgot about her until I saw a post on twitter. Brings back real nostalgia

i feel like they removed her partially because a lot of fans felt she was really creepy

particularly younger kids were scared by her, which is understandable tbh

What’s Zipper’s excuse then? lol

Not that I can’t see her being creepy to some, but this young adult here—meaning me—finds him much more off-putting. Like. Better no face than one like that.

Another missing NPC/feature, April Fools?

If kids can deal with Pietro, they can certainly handle Blanca.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

“face and all” damn lmao

i never cared for her much tbh so i’m not too bothered by her absence lol

Yeah I would prefer having Blanca over Zipper because I personally find the events with Blanca very interesting.

I thought about Blanca today. Honestly, I hope she returns. I don't really care if she's related to April Fools Day or not, so I'm okay with her not showing up yet, but I hope she will eventually in some capacity.

I miss Blanca, but TBH I hate April Fool's. Not specifically in-game, but in general. The "jokes" are either stupid or cruel. I wish this "holiday" would die in a fire.

I'd be happy if they brought Blanca back for some other event.

I find zipper way scarier than blanca...

That's why I dusted off my 3ds to play the event today.

New Horizons's is rapidly becoming "Animal Crossing: Please Understand edition" for me. And nope, I don't understand their very questionable (to put it very lightly) decisions at all.

I had high hopes for this game, but it's being nothing more than a bittersweet experience for me.

i did miss blanca today too. totally agree about zipper being creepier than blanca -- especially in new horizons. i walked out of my house today and he was bouncing from behind a tree right outside. talk about nightmare fuel.

I saw Blanca today in my NL town of 2020 and, with the assistance of Fandom, got all 10 of my villager's pictures!

 

[meggiewes]

I was worried that I would miss Blanca today. Surprisingly, I didn't miss her at all. I was having fun playing my game instead of looking up guides. I did send her poster out to all my friends that I've played with so far, but that was it.

I wouldn't mind seeing her back as long as there was an interesting event that didn't force you to look up guides to get rewards. Like making joke glasses or something.

i didn't even think about blanca today until this thread lmao.. guess it shows i didn't really care about or miss her as an npc at all
