Hm. Mixed feeling about this one. I think this is the update I'm the most "meh" about. I feel almost nothing was shown of the things they wanted to introduce us to. I still have a tiny sliver of hope that they just didn't want to spoil the events so they chose not to show all the new furniture, potential crops and what not. I know personally for me for Halloween they kind of spoiled the actual Halloween-day event in the last update video by showing too much of it.
I am curious about the new tent item seen as it doesn't fit in with the new harvest furniture we briefly saw, and it doesn't seem particularly toy-day like. Are they adding in just random new furniture now? I would be super down for that.
New reactions look good and I feel it was only a matter of time they gave us copies of the reactions the animals can do. Very easy to import since they have the animation sets already made.
New Hairstyles are very good since these seem very geared towards poc players and I know people have been asking for these for a long while now. Good to know Nintendo seems to be listening.
Side note: I find it slightly curious the harvest festival is now called turkey day, so it's now very much officially tied to American Thanksgiving. It was slightly more ambiguous before this. Can't say I'm personally a fan as a non-american player. It won't set me in to a seething, angry frenzy or anything but just not a fan.
edit: I totally forgot to mention the storage upgrade! I've been struggling with storage for weeks now and this is going to be a breath of fresh air.
I'm assuming the tent is algo part of the turkey day event. If it's meant to reference Thanksgiving, then it would make sense they make native american tents.
