New Villagers personalities confirmed!

I’d say there’s a very small chance it’s happening and wasn’t mentioned because it might be too confusing for the Direct with the other villager home changes, but we’d know right away on the 5th

I would literally cry if that is the case, now I know what is the first thing I'm doing. lol
 
I would actually be stoked if petri is snooty, as I've had the biggest problem with which "snooty" villager I want on my island. And I want petri bad, so it's perfect.
 
Not going to lie, I am not thrilled by this reveal. Frankly, because I had a plan (wishful thinking) about how I could implement the villagers purely on personalities.

Firstly, Sasha... Deep down I knew the Russian name for Sasha from the book Peter and the Wolf was a boy's name. I was not banking my prediction by the name, but what was needed for the game. In my opinion, Uchi's severely draw the short straw when it comes to their design/look. I really wanted Sasha to be a Uchi. I thought the tomboy look with letterman jacket would be a perfect addition to the collection. I am really disappointed in the lazy classification of Sasha. We already have an over saturation of cute, lazy villagers.

Shino doesn't surprise me by being classified as a peppy, as there aren't any deer peppies. However, the design threw me for a loop. Thought the design befitted a snooty or uchi.

Ione is another let down. Again, another saturated type, normal! Disappointed. Could have made a great uchi.

Cephalobot, as a smug is kind of off key. I don't know how I feel about a smug robotic octopus. Aren't they supposed to charming?

As for the rest, pretty AC standard types. Marlo looks cranky, but could have been smug. Tiansheng as a jock was on the money.

Lastly, I would like to highlight Quinn. Primary example as to why we needed a different take on a uchi. She fits the mold of lackluster and uninspiring.

That being said, I will gladly implement Sasha, Shino, Ione, and Cephalobot onto one of my islands... maybe not right away as planned but my opinion might change when I get their amiibo in my hands, or if anyone wants them, I will be gladly upload them onto one of my islands 🥰
 
I was hoping Sasha would be a smug or sisterly. I’m still considering getting him though

Also I believe he’s the first male villager with the cute theme in acpc, so that’s nice
 
The boys I'm overall happy about, but I'm really bummed out about the girls.

Ione - my favorite design, and I was really hoping she would be anything but Normal. There are already so many good Normals, now I don't know if she'll make it as a permanent villager with all that competition. She would have been a shoe-in for my island if she were any other personality.

Quinn - Of course my least favorite girl is the one who ends up Sisterly. I wanted a good Sisterly so much. There's no Sisterly villagers I'm really into, and I'd hoped that this new batch of villagers would fix that. Well, she's been gradually growing on me so maybe I'll eventually like her more.

Shino - I guess it's good that she's filling in a gap in the species/personality thing. But her whole appeal was how elegant she looked, and that's going to be conflicting so much with how Peppy villagers behave. I'm dissapointed on this one, too.

Petri - I'm glad that Petri's a girl. I like the idea of a girl scientist. It just seems a bit strange for her to be Snooty, since Snooty tend to wear a lot of makeup and focus on their appearance, and Petri just doesn't come across that way. I thought Normal would suit her because they read more and so it would make sense for her to be a bit brainy.

Sasha - so he is a boy. I actually think I'm happier that way, as there are already a lot of cute female Rabbits. I think he's adorable and I can get behind him as a Lazy. He's pretty high up there for favorite Lazy villagers.

Tiansheng - Jock goes well with his design, I'm good with this.

Marlo - I thought he was going to be a Smug, but he looks great as a Cranky as well. He suits that personality really well, and I'm happy to see him join the Cranky ranks. I'll likely have him on my island.

Cephalobot - probably my favorite of the personality reveals. We don't have a Smug Octopus or a Smug Robot, so I'm glad to see him fill those slots. And when I looked at the Japanese site for the Amiibo I could see more detail in his design than I originally thought there was.
 
Although I'm not planning in getting any of these new characters (I simply have a different island roster in mind) I'd love to join the discussion.

Sasha: I LOVE that Sasha is male. I love to see a character "break the mold" and having a more feminine villager actually be a male feels good. I do wish they went with a different personality though. I am also kind of over the "too cute" lazies at this point. The same could maybe be said about a few jocks but I'd rather have had Sasha be a jock. A Cranky would have been hilarious even.

Shino: I love that Shino is Peppy because she really looks more like a Snooty to me. Part of me was also hoping she'd be male but I think a peppy female was a good choice for her imo.

Cephalabot: I'm not feeling smug. I kinda wished he had been a jock but I guess the options may have been limited since already have a lazy and cranky octopus.

Petri: Perfect.

Ione: I'm okay with normal, glad she's not peppy, would have preferred snooty.

Marlo: I wish he'd been smug, i love his design and he just reeked of smug to me but he's a Cranky? I just don't believe it with those cool shades and that look.

Quinn: I think sisterly was a good choice, snooty also would have been good for her look.

Tiansheng: I kinda dislike that he's a jock. I think he would have been a fun cranky or smug.

Anways, that's just what I would have wanted really, not what I would have guessed originally. I didn't ponder what their personalities were going to be. I just looked at the designs. I kinda really like all of them, except Tiansheng isn't really my cup of tea.
 
I may be in the minority, but I am disappointed that Shino is a peppy. I know Diana exists, but Shino exudes a similar elegant energy and would have made a great snooty :' (

I'm disappointed too. I'm thrilled that Shino ended up being a girl and I still want her regardless, but I was really hoping she'd be snooty or uchi. I actually forgot that Diana exists so I never even considered that it was unlikely!

I'm very excited about Sasha being a boy though! Lazy is not my favourite personality, but it's much better than jock anyway!
 
Hmm... I kinda wish there was a personality something like 'quirky' for Rosewell and Cephlaobot. I get them being smug to round out the roster but I can't imagine them talking all romantic like the smugs do. Seems like they'd be into bizzare topics and interest.
I just wanna talk about UFO's with someone man.
 
Everybody: Sasha is a mold breaker!
Julian: AM I A JOKE TO YOU!?!?!

I love them both.
Lol I kinda forget about Julian. Not saying we haven't had any "mold breakers" before, I'm just excited for another one to be added to the game. It's new and it's fun!
 
I posted my thoughts on another thread; I'll keep it as short as possible here.

It's very disheartening, seeing the majority of the Internet going "I wish so-and-so was uchi so I'd like the personality! Quinn = ugly, like the rest of the uchis! Eww why is Sasha a BOY?! but eyelashes!"

I'm very glad Quinn fits the mold of the rest of the uchis; the designers have made it clear that they are not intended to be cute uwu girls, and it's very befitting of their personalities. Uchis don't subscribe to the norms of conventional attractiveness, which means they get the short stick in terms of fans liking them.
Just like in real life, unfortunately. :cry: I personally really appreciate that the designers stuck to their guns; uchis are my favourite personality specifically because of this.
(I don't know, maybe I'm just old and out of touch and uchis are only good if they're cute uwu. I don't know...)

I'm so glad that Sasha isn't another peppy rabbit; he's going to do great as a fashionista gender barrier breaking lazy boy, and I'm rooting for him from the sidelines! :blush:
(though he's still not on the shortlist for my island because he'd share Hopkins' script. Though, seeing the negative fallout from him not being female is starting to sway me...)
 
Me, who has an all-squirrel island but already has 3 normals but wanted Ione because I think she'd matched well with Filbert but now If I want her I'm forced to remove either Poppy, Sally, or Cally (I love them all) or remove another villager and lack one of the personality types:

Also I think there will be 6 normal squirrels overall when she comes out. We truly are living in the worst timeline.

Quinn is a queen. I'm happy she's Uchi. Would have even liked her as a Snooty, but she's perfect.
 
Petri - I'm glad that Petri's a girl. I like the idea of a girl scientist. It just seems a bit strange for her to be Snooty, since Snooty tend to wear a lot of makeup and focus on their appearance, and Petri just doesn't come across that way.

There's definitely a snooty lady under those glasses:

😍
 
I absolutely love that Sasha has been confirmed as a guy! I will definitely want to have him on my island for a while. Him being lazy doesn't bother me, I kinda like the idea of this adorable fluffy bunny talking about the bugs in his house.

Shino being a peppy surprises me, really expected her to be either snooty or normal. But I'm still happy with it! Might even have her as my 10th and final villager.

Petri being a snooty, however... Eh. If ever we needed a new personality (geeky/nerdy) it's now. I want her to throw random science facts at me and my villagers, not 'oh Cherry darling your outfit looks awful'.

The others are all fine by me / not particularly shocking to me.
 
I've been reading the comments and I just wanted to say, over all I am happy with the new villagers personalities, just throws me off that Sasha is lazy of all personalities. I guess we didn't have a lazy rabbit, I'm glad that they're not peppy, but still throws me off.

Shino's face just doesn't scream peppy to me. She looks so mischievous, like a sisterly villager. Her overall design is nice though.

Ione I do kind of wish she was a different personality, but only because some of my favorite squirrels are normal, like Poppy and Sylvannah.

Petri I love the whole lab rab is now the scientist and I like her over all design.

Marlo I'm quite happy with being cranky, but I could also see him as a smug. When I look at him, he reminds me of an old style mobb boss

Cephalobot even though I'm not a robot fan, his desjgn is kind of neat, and it's nice to get a new octopus. He'd be perfect for a post apocalypse or sci-fi themed island.

Quinn, even though I'm not an eagle fan, she does look quite pretty and she doesn't look bad for a sisterly villager.

Tiansheng even thlugh I'm not a monkey fan, he does have a neat design. Definitely fits oriental themed islands and I love that he looks like a jock, but isn't in a sports design.
