2.0 VILLAGER HUNT! (shino pls notice me) 

Amanda finally meets Marlo “I Wanna Fight.. I wanna fight” 😅😅 Marlo: “You find me on this island.. on the day of my Hamster daughter wedding” 🤣

All Dogs Go to Heaven terrified me, yet I couldn't stop watching it repeatedly. So much to unpack there. Also, this very strange forgotten movie called The Brave Little Toaster, just as strange as it sounds (and I remember there's like 2 sequels)- and the couple of scenes that scarred me for life.

finally going to find out who's the next Molokai villager 🙉!! we're getting so much content from you amanda I hope you are taking care of yourself 🥺💛

when you don't know half the shit amanda is talking about half the time, i.e. the last unicorn, but you're just happy to be here.

Fun fact: If you invite Zell to the cafe with his amiibo, he will remember you

I also (as a Capricorn 😔) am always using the dropbox, even when Nook's is open, because I don't want to take the few seconds to go in 😂

Love how you found Quinn on your third island! I found her too😍She's absolutely stunning. A lesbian queen no doubt, my character has a total crush on her. Apollo and her are like those sibling "if you're gay, that's my sister's number, if you're straight, that's mine" and I LIVE for this drama on my island lol. On another note, take care of yourself Amanda! Your content is amazing

Counter Argument: go watch The Last Unicorn. The animation studio who did it (Topcraft) would later go on to animate "Nasuicaä of the Valley of the Wind," and most of its employees would become core animators for Studio Ghibli. The story in itself is a classic fairy-tale. You can take it at face value, you can dissect all the symbolism, you can read the book and compare it to the movie, whatever suits your fancy. But like all modern fairy tales, it's emotional. It's not about the plot as much as it's about how you feel watching it. (Kind of like Disney's Snow White.) I personally don't think The Last Unicorn is that scary, but then again I watched the animated horror that is "Watership Down" as a child. So my opinion on what is and isn't scary can be taken with a grain of salt. Thank you for humoring me by reading this far!

Someone needs to make an edit of you ranting about Blanche in this video vs when you were raving about swans when bringing her onto the island because it's hilarious. 😂

The resurgence of Blanche has me dying LMAO

I just want to say thank you for inspiring me to pursue a job in wildlife conservation 😘

Re: Ione 🌙 I think it’s Io-, like Jupiter’s moon and then -ne, like Antigone, Persephone = Greek goddess vibes

i love how you were like "im not going to spend much time on this one" but still proceed to make it a 15-20 minute conversation 😂

Amanda discovering your channel and being in the discord made my life significantly better (you helped me raise funds for my kitty selene!!)

I have Naomi on my island, and she’s never leaving, she’s my contemporary artist queen! Can’t wait to redesign her house into the painting studio she deserves :p Also thank you so so much for another video so soon! I never related more to a story then the baseball field horror drama.

Don’t ever let anyone gaslight you into changing the way you play!

I have ADHD too and I'm also autistic and on the drop box thing? It is so much easier. I'm already overwhelmed half the time on my island from my lack of focus and a bit of the lag and it's just easier. Going in, waiting for the loading screen, getting distracted buying stuff, forgetting what I was doing, leaving before I sell cause I got distracted, dropping stuff I bought off in my home, going through the dialogue, misclicking and cancelling it, misclicking and forgetting to sell, not seeing the price until after they calculate it as a total. It is so much easier to just use the drop box. You can still get a fair bit of money. I paid off most of my loans diving for sea creatures and selling them in my drop box. Most I ever made was over 300,000 bells. To me, it's just a lot easier and simpler and doesn't cause me any meltdowns or stress from having to go through all of that. Plus when I wait for it to load, I'll set my switch down sometimes and forget about it then come back after they've closed and so it was entirely pointless haha. To each their own, if you wanna sell it inside all the power to ya, but some people either just don't care or find it easier to use the drop box. Whatever you use/prefer, it's valid :) people seem to forget that even if they don't mean to come off rude. But either way, a really fun video and I honestly just love listening to your rambles especially as someone with ADHD too, I can actually focus on your long videos without getting bored/distracted. And I love you reactions to the villagers, it's always so funny /gen /lh Edit: Omg, pango no. I found her 4 times on a single villager hunt and then when I play Happy Home Paradise, after I help my first client, she is one of the three villagers there. I made her a nice salon and spa and she loved it. I love her, but omg, I see her far too much /lh

This semester is kicking my ass and I really appreciate all of the uploads recently helping me get through it! You’re a gem Amanda

the fact that u tried so hard to get her but she ended up getting w your bf cant

I have never wanted to watch a movie more than I want to watch the last unicorn after listening to your rant

Amanda tied to the baseball field is the best story ever 🤣 the best part, she tied herself lmaoo

I’m crying from the sweatshirt story I could totally relate to young Amanda 🤣🤣🤣😂😂

I'm really glad Happy Home Designer lets you immortalize certain villagers that one must be rid of in order to obtain the new dreamies.

I’m living for all this Amanda content 🤧

I just got Shino on my vacation island. I didn't even know she existed. She is by far the most interesting looking character I've seen.

I can relate. I was such a quiet, anxiety written awkward child. Did embarrassing things and was pretty much ignored by kids up until middle school. I'm 25 now, in college, on the right medication and now I'm social to an extent 😊❤️

nothing like a molokai hunt 🥺🥺🥺

The sentient apple trees in Wizard of Oz scared me so bad as a kid omg.

I just did a villager hunt yesterday bestie!! Looked for Ione for the winter fairycore island but I had to take Pietro once he showed up twice! Loving all these videos Amanda, thank you for blessing us 🙏🏻💜🙌🏻

So I’ve never watched the last unicorn but after listening to Amanda rave about the unicorn as a human girl I had to look it up. And, I can confirm she is like the prettiest girl in the world and I have fallen in love with her at first sight.

I named my island after Amalthea of the Last Unicorn because I love that story! I read the book before seeing the film and I will say there’s a lot more explanation in the book than the film. But that film haunted me when Amalthea turned human and yelled at the wizard “I wish you had let the bull take me! I wish you had left me to the harpy! I can feel this body dying all around me!”… that’s a bit much for a kids film y’know? But I love that book/film so much!

7:12 “I would pay this woman to slap me across the face” girl same 😭😭😭

Just finished a long hunt--I was hoping for either Shino or Ione, too, but when I came across Sasha I couldn't hear to pass him up ❤️ thanks for all the awesome content bestie

Your Last Unicorn rant I’m DEAD 💀💀💀😂 I watched that movie like probably 100 times and it never registered to me how messed up it is

Omg the last unicorn is like a fever dream lmao. I remember talking to my friends in high school about that movie like “do y’all remember the last unicorn?? That shit fucked me up as a child” and none of them had ever seen it???? And then I realized it came out in like, 1982 so it made sense that none of my generation had seen it. ANYWAY it makes me happy to know that I’m not the only one who watched that movie, and was also terrified of it as a child 😌

Giving Blanche the Burn Book treatment sent me XD

We’re on the same journey 😭 I’ve used maybe 173 tickets so far and still have not found Shino I’m exhausted 😩

First time watching this channel, I like it here - she insults Orville and Wilbur and I find it accurate since they almost always give you trash on islands and it's pain

I started ACNH only a few weeks ago for the first time. I loved Shino and really wanted her but knew it would be difficult. I had 7 tickets to get my first 3 villagers to move in after I built the houses (already had the OG two of course too). On my 3rd ticket I got Molly. She's ADORABLE so I was happy. On my 6th ticket and with the final home to move someone into, I found Shino. I kid you not I almost fell out of my seat from shock. Still one of my fav villagers (alongside Melba)

FroggyCrossing’s videos with her boyfriend are ✨HILARIOUS✨. You should totally do it!

I'm so jealous to my friend who just casually gets Shino visit their campsite. When they told me that they got Shino, I was like "no way you got her, you're lying" but they really got her!

I found your voice so calming I would like to listen to a 3 hours podcast every day lmao

I get excited when I see tutu ,she's so cute ,I love how frumpy and big she is but also so cute ,she's literally a walking teddy bear LOL

The story of being tied to the baseball field was the most amazing thing i think I've ever heard. 😆

I absolutely LOVE your village hunting videos!!!

I think my earliest memory of watching a movie was Twister, and it was traumatizing 😂 I just remember a family going underground, the door to the underground safe spot opening, and whisking away the father. HORRIFYING. Then I just vividly remember having low-grade anxiety every April because I heard it was tornado season and I just thought as a little kid that tornadoes were just roaming around the Midwest, popping up ALL the time as they pleased (but never came to our state like that). Terrifying… why do parents do this?! I’m 30 by the way, born in 91 and I started fearing tornados in elementary school so I was in the single digits when I watched lmao!

I would love you to play Resident evil Amanda! I miss the Harry Potter games.. I can’t wait for the new one to come out.

I can relate to your sweatshirt tied to fence story so much lmao it’s comforting to hear I wasn’t the only one who did stuff like that as a kid 😅

Ok I didn’t expect to get so engrossed in your commentary lmao- speaking of traumatic childhood movies: The Land Before Time!!! That movie was 50 shades of fucked up! And I watched it over and over as a kid! And The Secret of Nimh oh my god….. haunts me to this day. Anyway I love your sense of humor and you have a great voice, 10/10 would listen while brushing my teeth again

joined ur patreon bc of this video and i’m v excited about it (also joined your discord which is also v exciting)

We love being early to the content 😍❤️ needed this today thank you so much!!

THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED

Bruh I just chocked on my water…. I was done when you started with the story, this is the best story of 2021 please keep doing story times this is epic 😂💀

You can tell Amanda is a horse girl because she loves just about every horse villager she sees lmao

The other day I went villager hunting for Pom Pom bc I restarted my island and she's been my number 1 bestie since March 2020... HOWEVER shino appeared on the fourth island I went to.. Everything after that is a blur (she enticed me) but now she lives on my island and pompom is still waiting to be found 😭

blanche is really so full of herself like i wouldn't be surprised if she paid wilbur just to make a cameo

Zell really said “girl bye 😘 ✌️“

hey can i just say how thankful i am for your tying yourself to the baseball field story? cause immediately when i heard the topic about this i was like Wait Bitch Me Too, i mean kind of different. sometime in elementary school i was bored waiting for my mom to pick me up and playing with my backpack strings, a backpack i loved because it was my little pony, and i thought haha let’s tie it to the school gate! why did i think that? i don’t know and could never justify it but my god did i feel justified hearing your story and similar thought process. and then the people i carpool with were like ok time to go (cause we had to walk a bit to find my mom cause the car pickup line was stupid), and i was like oh ok hold on! and tried untying myself but i COULDNT!!! and i was like panicking and shit and one of my carpool buddies (but was she even my buddy? she was my neighbor and after this she was Dead to Me) was like “bye” and led the others to walk away and im like waIT WAIT and tugging on my backpack as if that would help a campus supervisor tried helping me and had scissors but i refused to let her cut it because of how important the backpack was i guess? eventually my mom showed up? i literally don’t remember the rest i can only assume they eventually got it off. but luckily i guess i was at least able to take off my backpack unlike jacket strings rip but i absolutely felt that and honestly was weirdly reassuring to hear about it. the backpack shit is smth that my brain reminds me of at night when i just think of really embarrassing shit fjjvjsmcjcj and hearing a similar story makes it feel like a weight was lifted. i cannot explain

Hahahaha. That Blanche sighting was definitely the funniest thing I seen in a long time. How dare she show her face again.

Bestie that capricorn reference!!!!! I’m so proud of you! Lol

Love how I literally looked up the last unicorn and watched scenes... it’s giving me almost the same vibes as the Dark Crystal growing up, the Dark Crystal was scary as shit but I watched it every day

Love The Last Unicorn, and your commentary on it. Also had the double vhs of titanic and was also young. The second tape always made me so upset that I would only watch the first one and call it a night.

your videos literally make my day, thank you for existing

Quinn was on the island of my very first nook ticket of the 2.0 update and I love her

Speaking of embarrassing school stories, one time my biology teacher asked if I knew what a ruler was in front of the WHOLE class. But I ended up becoming his favorite student so I guess it works out in the end 😂

I haven’t watched you in forever but now I finally got the chance to! You’re are literally my comfort youtuber 😣

Love hearing you talk about snail, they're one of my favourite things I even have a snail tattoo

that the last unicorn movie really is like a fever dream, the art style the music etc so weird, i always got weird vibes from it but couldnt help but watch it lmao.. and oh my god i always got SO scared when the harpy killed the old lady.

quinn out here with the Twilight sparkle hair, love that for them

man you are so freaking funny. I can definitely relate to us 90s kids hahah *new follower*

excuse me sir this is MY emotional support animal crossing youtuber

I have Naomi on my Island, shes the only one of my original 10 villagers that hasn't moved away

"Didn't they tell me that I was gonna be brought to an island where I didn't need a vaulting pole?" That's how I lost Annalisa, one of my dreamies, I didn't have a vaulting pole. I mean, unlike Ankha I didn't even have a chance to get her soooo- Also I don't really recommend looking for Shino, she would've been better as a snotty, as a peppy she just seems stale.

Love your content. You're my favorite animal crossing youtuber! Keep doing what you're doing! You're amazing 😁❤

Girl, I don't know how, but I found Shino in only 7 tickets?!? And the first new villager I came across. Hope you find her soon!

Talking about disturbing movies-don’t forget the Watership Down cartoon. Nightmares for decades.

i pulled shino AND raymond in the same card pack😳

Ione Skye! That’s who I think Ione is named after. She even has a boom box in her house, much like the one that John Cusack held up for her in the iconic 80’s movie “Say Anything”. Her name is Ione, she has the sky in her tail, Ione Skye, I’ll be taking no further questions.

We have so much in common! We’re libras, especially love beauty and the beast, love poetry and horror, indecisive, and huge animal lovers! I found my people

Lego games were like my absolute #1 as a kid

lmao i just discovered your channel and love your sense of humour

My dad also forced me to play soccer. I played from 5 to 15. The only reason I was able to get out of it is because I skipped the tryouts for the high school team and joined the cross country team instead. I’ve always loved running. And running without having to worry about a stupid soccer ball was amazing. Soccer was fun until middle school when suddenly the girls were out for blood. I broke my nose twice and got concussed once when a girl who was a literal giant tackled me so hard I fell and hit my head on the ground. The only thing I really miss about it are some of my team members and the pizza parties.

I actually have fauna on my island xD she's one of my dreamjes which is why she's on it. Fun fact: it took me over 3000 tickets to get all my dreamies (shino, sasha, fauna, Judy, Zucker, Marina, marshal, Ione, stitches, Beau) and I'm happy bout that cz i think that very little amount of tickets for ALL my favs

The shriek I let out when you started screaming in lowercase at 4:30 AHHAHA

I loveee hearing about these octopi And the video with Matt is such a good idea I can’t wait!!

I did one too found Shino, Ione and Sasha in three different hunts took them all!

"theres some people, like capricorns and shit-" had me dead 💀

80's kid here! I remember the 2-VHS Titanic... I used to skip the 1st part and just start on the 2nd tape because that's when the ship started sinking... I'm not sure what that says about me as a person.

I also watched Titanic when I was really little. Strangely haven't seen it in its entirety since then. I also watched The Ring with my parents when I was like seven or something. I wasn't scared, but the horse dying really bothered me. Kind of expected of someone who watches Animal Crossing villager hunts, I guess haha

funnily enough i had to rewatch the last unicorn for a film/lit paper and (thankfully) it wasn’t as scary as i remembered 😭 YOU KNOW WHAT WAS THOUGH .... this little film called ringing bell also the stories abt the octopuses were so cute 😭😭 i wanna pet one now...

amanda I think you’d like splatoon since it features cephalopods‼️

Aww Puddles- she has a vacation home on my happy home paradise

I just did a villager hunt for Ione ❤️ Had the same problem that I had already used all my Nook Miles for other new update related stuff 🥲 From the new villagers Shino is also gorgeous obviously 😍

Living for all this content lately 👀❤️

When she saw Marlo and said look at his dumb little glasses I lost it 😭

I also sucked at soccer in kindergarten. I never got the ball, never tried to get the ball, and the one time I stopped a goal was when the ball got kicked into my stomach. PS Marlo looks like he's stuck in a black and white movie while the rest of us are living in Technicolor

what also scared the shit out of me was when ursula died in the little mermaid and she is literally impaled by a ship and i was horrified

I have both Zell and Shino together on my third island and they look so cute together. I was going to build a Japanese devil theme and Zell definitely is not one of them but since I saw them are so cute together I can’t decide if I really want Zell to leave….

within the first 30 seconds you helped me through flora leaving so thank you for that, she was my third villager ;-;

Omfggg yesss our girl is back with a villager hunt 🙏🏻 absolute mad lad
