[@victreebeloverlord1185]

In my personal head cannon, them and their parents were in the box together and eventually digby and Isabelle worked hard to get their parents out of poverty

[@skylarwill2927]

Yeah! In the morning announcements, she says she calls her parents on video call every now and then. Or at least she does in my town.

[@SakuraArchive17]

Or maybe one day thier parents had to look for food and got lost and never returned to the box

[@iPinkerbell]

Evie Aiello that’s super sad to think about 😔

[@BOOMBoom-tv4kv]

Same but on boondox

[@littlefox_100]

Skylar Williams or they got lost and and couldn’t find mom and dad until later

[@impudentstrumpet2655]

Isabelle's not just the secretary to possibly the richest character in Animal Crossing. She's basically the mayor in New Leaf. The player holds the title, but Isabelle does all the heavy lifting while the player runs around catching bugs and funding the public works projects. I personally think she does this because she feels bad about the player having ended up as mayor basically by accident at the start of the game, so she wants them to live like a normal villager as much as possible.

[@emwatchesthings]

let isabelle actually have the title and get her a secretary 2k20

[@abd_md]

Isabelle mentions her parents if there aren’t any news she says “I got to chat with mom and dad and they are both ok ” Edit: guys chill I didn’t realize he said that I just thought I’d rule that possibility off

[@Ne34_erin]

Chig Bungus maybe she was adopted and they might be her adopted parents? Idk honestly

[@garfieldluver3776]

Plus in new leaf, her mum sends her some fruit and shares it with you

[@ShizzyMcCreepii]

Maybe here parents were homeless too?

[@zqlvxq8184]

I was about to comment that

[@hamham6900]

I got that today :D

[@akko4264]

I do not know if there is already a comment on this, but when we give Isabel some sea shells (as she asked for it) she gives us a basket with fruit not native to our city, and said that it was her mother who sent that basket ( because she was a good dog)

[@emwatchesthings]

yes! so i definitely think she was homeless with her parents rather than being homeless without them.

[@ceci2289]

Wait what?! When does she ask?? I’ve been playing New leaf for years and she’s never asked me for seashells.

[@chicken0w044]

_Riley_ at the start

[@RinLockhart]

I almost screamed when Isabelle casually mentioned "my brother" during one of her announcements.

[@renatafraga5243]

Me too

[@phoebesayer6747]

Wait? What!? When? How?! I have yet to see the announcement :O

[@KITTENJAMHERE1]

Yeah the same thing happened to me but I forgot her brother so I was confused until I remembered digby

[@That_Isabelle]

which announcement was it?

[@davidacnh1235]

Everyone asking what the announcement was, By memoryShe said "PHOOEY! I forgot to give my brother a wake up call! Oh well... I hope he's awake..."

[@viosu]

If there was any update I could make to New Horizons, it'd be that Isabelle would tell us how Digby's doing in the announcements Edit: this isn’t my original idea, I forgot where I saw it but basically someone said that they wish that around 12-1pm we could see the npc’s like Isabelle, Tom Nook, etc. walking around the island because it’s their lunch break like that would be so cute 🥺

[@marimonsoon7636]

Jelli i know you found that profile pic from google or safari,i had it before on discord-

[@um1dkman684]

skylerxnoina literally nobody asked though

[@sapphie_MEALS]

I would make Digby come to the island and give you furniture and stuff

[@saltshaker4011]

It's probably a little too late for me to say, but one time, Isabelle gave my town the announcement on how she completely forgot to wake up her brother, and that she hoped he still wasn't sleeping (the time was 5pm by the way). This happened right after the update where Leif and Redd showed up in my case.

[@lizzielovesvivi8463]

Salt Shaker oh I just got that recently! I didn’t know Digby existed so I was like, “Wait... Isabelle has a brother?!”

[@thunderdeeznuts]

can I just say I love that the kk slider cover of bad guy plays in the background

[@etps4444]

I loved Digby in New Leaf. I hope he'll return, too. :)

[@firelightyear]

@@etps4444 Yeah if he does what will his role be in New horizons?

[@user-on3bl1vm6m]

Isabelle also says “my mother gave me some *insert fruit*” which also proves that Isabelle definitely was reunited at some point

[@masonblood7497]

In New Leaf if you give Isabelle a sea shell then you will be rewarded with some fruits and with something interesting. Isabelle: "My mom told me to share these fruits with my friends." I guess they got a new family.

[@veronicafogle7949]

Where's Digsby??

[@Johanaa]

“No dog is unwanted in my eyes” awww

[@user-nw7dj7rs8g]

oh my goodness !! i would’ve never known that they were box pups, its so interesting to see how such a calm peaceful game has so much backstory to their npcs that you can uncover randomly. makes it feel so real

[@zoecashion4473]

Don’t you mean they worked their “tails” off? LOL 😂

[@chloekelly2831]

HOLD UP who wouldn't want Isabelle and Digby????!!!!There SO CUTE

[@lovelyspetdaycare6025]

roses are red violets are PURPLE... since WHEN are they *BLUE* ??!

[@jakebutnotfromstatefarm4950]

Isabelle has some text in the news saying "MY BROTHER TOLD ME TO GIVE HIM A WAKE UP CALL!"

[@jumpupsupbarhorn]

As the Digby lover I am, I appreciate people take the time to talk about him too. Great video, my fella! #Digby4NH

[@digby2741]

yass

[@emmabarman1178]

My heart hurts who would do that to precious pupper and her brother

[@juliajoyas5105]

I love this channel. Especially the theories.. May I suggest for you to make a video about how Tom Nook and Redd had a conflict? It's okay if you don't do so ^^

[@BigOEntertainmentYT]

Working on it

[@asterflowerzzz6439]

Redd and tom nook are divorced (not original i saw it on insta)

[@Olayinkiss]

[@sausageassassinn]

Me:sees the thing where Isabelle asks if the town watched a documentary about a scientist named rick Also me: * rick and morty *

[@Bob-pz3id]

[@idk9875]

I hope they add Digby in New Horizons :(

[@yechi4647]

THEY BETTER. DIGBY IS MY BOYE

you can’t even use his amibo in the photo thing 😔

someone put me in smash too pls

There's a petition by one of my friends to get Digby in Smash

Why am I crying at a digital dog family backstory

[@luca-d7956]

TheBigOReview is SO underrated and I’m mad about it. T^T

[@violetp0127]

I agree. He needs more attention on yt.

[@luca-d7956]

Violet Pincombe YES.

[@user-wc4ep1qh4v]

Yes, you are right.

[@kristenwillrule]

I assumed that they got adopted after being found in a cardboard box.

[@pickles514]

The dog in boxes part made my cry :(

[@professornova1236]

There's alot of contradictions in New Horizons. During the morning announcement Isabelle says that she still gets calls and messages from her parents. Why would that be if they abandoned her and digby? Then again, Animal crossing isn't meant to be played for the lore. Thats Kirby's job.

[@BigOEntertainmentYT]

I mention Isabelle and Digby's parents in the video, how either they were abandoned from their parents or they were taken and abandoned but then reunited. Or Isabelle, Digby, and their parents are all homeless together.

[@Scififan926]

4:36 the Town's name is CoronaTown???? LMAO

[@kaianimatesyt]

YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME ALL THOSE PICTURES OF REAL HOMELESS DOGS ARE GONNA MAKE ME CRY MAN-

[@katieameriothesecond8802]

I've always wanted to know what they're backstory was... Glad I came to the right place!

[@dummie9614]

Other people: *watching Isabelle and Digby’s backstory* Me: *seeing a town named Corona Town*

[@A_JinglyRabbit]

Digby and Isabelle are honestly two of the best twin characters I've ever seen. Isabelle and Digby actually seem like different characters (the finishing each others sentences problem is common), they are a good example of how twins don't have to look like copies of eachother, and they aren't constantly around eachother while still have a pretty good relationship (there are loads of twin characters in media that are for some reason, ALWAYS together)

[@somekid7793]

4:44 “it was all about this scientist named Rick-”

[@dazedhorizons]

I didn't know Isabelle was a twin! And wow, that back story was so sad....

[@purrinpawz]

My boy Digby needs more attention✨💞

[@disneyvillainsfan1666]

This is such a sad story. It makes me even more sad because a lot of pets have no owners and live on the streets in the real world.

[@averymay3570]

Omg im early for *oNcE iN mY liFe*

[@vakancy]

Keep up the great work 😊

[@juliexiong5664]

the fact that a dog was left in a CHEWY box makes me hope theres toys in there

[@smithsoniansmith2433]

Awesome and cool!

[@chaseparr9012]

Are we just gonna ignore the fact that kk slider is singing “bad guy” in the background

[@andreaandrea8261]

my poor isabelle 😭 I will be with you forever

[@masterx6883]

Digby is one of my favorites

[@peanutbuttersunfish2927]

I'm not crying, you're crying!

[@garfieldluver3776]

The bit where Isabelle says she wanted to eat digby's shoes as a puppy is really sad. She was hungry. She needed to eat something

[@spencergoth1cgutz205]

Everyone: Loves Raymond Me: loving the characters with the sad backstories :(

[@sunnyy_-_]

Roses are red, Violets are blue, Digby needs to Be in New Horizons too :(

[@blockeontheleafeon]

I Love these deep and complex backstories. Could you theorize one for Lolly? She's my favorite Normal Villager so far due to how Adorable and fun she is.

[@user-lh5xb2xc8l]

**silently dancing to the epic background music**

The 3rd most popular characther and the 15th most underrated charactherare related?woah He is sooo underrated that I didnt noticed

[@abigailpena3602]

This is really making me want to cry on my lunch break huh

[@s0urswitchbl4de]

plot twist:*isabel is having nightmares when sleeping*

[@giannadesanti869]

The first full week of August is twin appreciation. I hope Digby can come back and do some decorating missions just like Reese and cirus did! I really hope Digby makes a return!!

[@fruitycups8445]

Anyone else notice that Isabelle still sleeps on the job? You just can’t interact the same way as before

[@jaymeandandrewplayroblox7355]

Wow that was so sad back story and Isabelle is favorite character and I didn't know she had a brother that's why I clicked this video to see.

[@boombob3D]

I think Digbee is behind the door in new horizons working now

[@bluecometdaiamon]

😟😭 Awwww...... That make me really sad.

[@slush-animallife2738]

the kk slider song in the background... I kept hearing Isabelle, Wow

[@cyber-moth]

That feeling when you hear an Animal Crossing character singing Billie Eilish 😂

[@strxbxrrymilkk976]

This video is so sad and isabelle is my favorite and I like digby

[@goldensnowflake1653]

If Isabelle was a resident wouldn’t she be as popular as Raymond or Marshal ?

[@Danielthedrummer]

2:26 *almost cries*

[@sketchyskies8531]

I'm ready to cry

[@RainMaker0602]

Still waiting for Digby's arrival in New Horizons

[@KanamoriKamper]

YES THEY FINALLY DID THIS ONE

[@Wowitsmii]

It was quite short but great and informative anyway

[@werewolf_cat8747]

Cool

[@carolinehuey7041]

OK when you refer to the fact they were homeless dogs I started crying. anyone else just me OK

[@talkshowhostt]

Same-

[@mooncalf8716]

I'm crying it's soooo sad 😭

[@aaml05]

i love this video. its so informative, but kk slider singing "bad guy" in the background is too much of a bop that i cant focus on anything youre saying hfjkhfkd

[@3ratsinatrenchcoat577]

We all gonna ignore the fact at 4:37 the towns name is coronatown

[@Hedgehogsupremacy]

My head cannon is Isabelle and Digby we’re abandoned, but, they soon found a job because they worked hard for it. And, the reason they work so hard for everyone to be happy is because they don’t want anyone else to have to go through the amount of sadness they went through.

[@onlynmoonlightbae2209]

I love the background music Bad guy- Bad crossing lol

[@sydsydqr6116]

Isabelle, I think, is depressed. Every once in a while, she will be looking down and sad right before daily announcements in New Horizons.

[@XDeathwingSilenceX]

Digby also is completely on the animal crossing happy home designer game itself as well.

[@smiththeinspiringanimator7042]

Holy cow!

[@washedupartist4211]

Honestly, I'd love to see like a "modern" version of Digby in ACNH. Idk how he'd be tied in. Like maybe when you get the gold HHA statue he'd come and like visit you every Sunday or something I rlly don't know.

[@ClaudiaWowPaw]

I wanna hug them

[@idiotgoddess2114]

Digby is criminally underrated, he is (in my opinion) just as cute, if not cuter than his sister! *Change my mind*

[@animalcrossingfan0768]

0:46 animal crossings most popular charcter it’s actually marshal

[@Chiamy]

I think the music in the background is a bit loud, or maybe is just me but either way this was a great job!!

[@keenakeena7744]

Is no one going to talk about how he or someone named their island “ coronatown”. Did anyone else catch that? 4:36

[@keroppio5638]

This is so sad 😭 I’m going to make acnh fan art now I love Izzy even more now

[@Sugaprincess2500]

I loved Isabelle so much...now after watching this....Ima find my Isabelle plush and hug cause I love her EVENMORE

[@IlyaLavendae]

I have a dog named digby and I didn’t even know this character existed until now

[@tiramisuuuuu]

I feel like they got adopted into a loving new doggy family and they are working really hard to make sure that it will never happen again

[@mik4829]

Or maybe by “Cardboard Boxes” Digby was trying to say him and Isabelle used to move out from Town to Town very frequently, since when a Villager is moving out he’s “In boxes”

[@joc-lv5bt]

The game theory has done a theory of zipper . Have you watched ?

[@vakancy]

Yes It cringe

[@BigOEntertainmentYT]

I’ve seen it, valid theory. For me however, I am still on fence if I agree with it.

[@viviennemorgan7217]

i love isabelle and digby because sometimes they're both dogs.

No,ending on a pun is amazing

Can i just talk anout how K.K. Slider is singing Bad Guy in the background??? I love it 😂
