NORMALS. I love them, the mom friends, the gardening buddies, the book club, baking crew, etc. They're just so great, and in every game I always get attached to whatever normal villager posts up in my town.
My 10 villagers of them though, hmmm, I guess would look like this: Annalisa, Coco, Fauna, Flurry, Gladys, Midge, Mitzi, Molly, Sylvana. And the tenth I would just cycle through the rest.
Or crankies, I relate and get along with them the most, they also really care about you/check in, more gardening buddies, and I love doing errands for their relatives ! My only for sure choices there would be: Dobie, Hamphrey, and Kabuki.
