That Villager you used to hate but now you like.

Hi.
All of us have some villagers we just don't like or sell, used to not like. I think in my case is Stitches.

When i was a kid i always found weird the way he looks, now i just found him as the coolest villager (in my opinion).

What about you?

Cousteau.

I expected him to be one of those villagers I test out for a couple weeks then replace...but he's probably my 2nd favorite Jock now.

 

[Weebgirlstan]

for me it was zucker but when i had him on my old island i was like im gonna kick him out but then started to like him somehow

 

[Balverine]

I used to hate all hippos, but Biff snuck his way into my heart lol
he's now my favorite jock after Rudy <3

 

[BlueberryDream]

Flo the penguin. She's sometimes snarky. I could never bring myself to get rid of her because she was my first villager. She has grown on me

 

[King koopa]

I used to hate ruby but once I realized she's albino, I instantly regretted it and now I like her

 

[Sheando]

Huck! I wouldn’t say I truly hated him, I guess, but I was pretty bummed to see him as my forced Smug camper early on. As it turns out, I quite like the Smug personality in NH and now Huck is one of my favorites, having lived on Anthology for well over a year.

Diva. still dislike her, but she's growing on me a little bit due to the fact she moved into my AC:NL town.

 

[Violet~]

Chadder, he was my first smug that appeared in the campsite in the beginning of the game. At first I really didn't like him, and he grew onto me so much that I haven't been able to let him go to this day!

 

[Millysaurusrexjr]

Marshal, I felt he was very overhyped. But then I found out he was my birthday twin, so I am obligated to like him and have him

 

[Bethboj]

Sly, for some reason I wasn’t a huge fan of crocodiles. I ended up with Sly as one of my starters and couldn’t wait for him to ask to leave. Now I look forward to spotting him doing his exercises off on the distance. I’ve become quite fond of him

Olaf! He was my first campsite villager and I was really salty about that. I really disliked him and wanted him gone asap! He did kinda grow on me though in the months that he lived on my island. I especially liked his fancy tail and he just looked hilarious with glasses on. When he left he did leave a little hole behind and I missed him for a while.

Another villager I really didn't like was Marshal. He looked so cranky to me and I didn't understand why he was so popular. I got him in NL and didn't like him at all. I was actually glad when he left my town. Then in NH I encountered him while island hopping. I just invited him over to either sell him or give him away later - but I completely fell in love with this squirrel. I can't explain what happened, but I just started to appreciate his design, his cute little face and his cozy house.

Cyrano. When I was young and had him in Wild World, he freaked me out with his thick angry eyebrows and long face. But then somehow he became one of my best friends. He was one of my two favorite villagers (along with Stitches) until New Horizons when I met Tangy and Melba.

 

[azurill]

Rodeo, I never really liked him. He was a random move in on my second island. I didn’t expect to like him as much as I did. He eventually moved on but I didn’t d enjoy having him on my island.

 

[WaileaNoRei]

I didn’t hate her, but I thought Tammi was fairly scary until I ‘met’ her in game. She is actually pretty cute and I appreciate her sort of wacky look, which is pretty fun. I would love to have her on one of my islands someday.

in general my villager taste has expanded a lot since I started playing. There’s so many great villagers in the game, and I love how much variety there is in their designs.

 

[BoonyBoo]

Raymond. I thought he was overdesigned, and it made me confused as to why people would pay so much in-game money just to have him on their island. But you what? He's the smuggest looking smug villager in the game.

He's a bottled blonde, has a business suit, wears glasses (which is commonly used to look smart), and the gold safe in his home implies that he's richer than most villagers. His heterochromia makes him think he's all that in a bag of chips. Raymond is as smug as they can get, and I respect that.

Coach. Sure he’s not the most attractive villager, but ya know he’s so sweet. When I got him has a move in from someone’s queue in NL i was a little disturbed. However as time passed he really grew on me and then I was stoked to see he followed me to NH as one of my starters! He gives the sweetest gifts and is just really interested in keeping you healthy which i appreciate. He’s such a sweet man cow. I love him!

 

[LexiOfFurby]

I instantly got used to Limberg, similiar to my instant changing of my feelings towards Clyde. He may have that beard and weird looking blush but he's not the worst out there and besides, cranky villagers give the jail bars (one thing on my wishlist).

 

[moo_nieu]

pietro. he creeped me out at first in new leaf, but now i appreciate his unique design and dont find him creepy

I came here to say the same! In fact, I think I've seen him mentioned on other posts like this before, lol. There's something about that dude!

When I was looking for a new jock after moving out Sheldon (my OG Jock- he's cute, just not really my "type") I was low on NMTs and on my last few when I found Coach on an island. My first thought, literally, was "UGH I want a cute jock not some ugly bull!" But I was desperate, so I moved him in. His house ended up looking really nice on my island, and he just... IDK, he just fit in super well. He quickly grew on me and I ended up really loving him. His design grew on me, too, and now I think he's quite cute- he's got great colors, an endearingly sweet face, and adorable stubble. I made up a story in my head that he was a retired coach, who moved to my island to enjoy retirement, but just couldn't shake his whole "coach" vibe (or even nickname) because that's just who he was deep down! He also ended up being my first villager birthday, and I used Harv's island for the first time to get a birthday pic:

It's SO basic and empty compared to my recent pics, but I love it, lol. I ended up moving him out eventually, but he was my resident jock for those first few months, and I still smile whenever I see him!
