[@Flower_Mom]

I feel bad for Zipper. He gives me the vibes of an overworked and underpaid retail worker who hates his job but is forced to smile through the pain. I just wanna put my hand on his shoulder and tell him it'll be alright.

[@TomJohnson67]

Astrid comes up and is like "MY JOEY DIDN'T GET A BUNNY DAY EGG, ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF" Ma'am there are eggs _everywhere_

[@vanessar.6085]

I didn't think of him this way. I just knew that he creeped me out. But this explanation makes more sense.

[@baad_626]

Same dude.

[@zero7769]

i agree but he’s so creepy still

[@kokichiouma2]

And he’s like wearing a costume too in the game-

[@erikaantonsson9327]

It's insane that it was "only" twelve days, because at the time it felt as if it was a month. At least.

[@Scintillate9]

I completely forgot about that. early lockdown felt incredibly long.

[@DaddyPietro]

just time travel

[@Cutie_Biscuit]

Reminder 2020 was 5 years so 🤷‍♀️ I didn’t get my switch until 2 years ago and I had no idea about bunny day being as terrible as it is 😅 I am soooo glad they changed it from 12 days. That is so extreme. No other holidays are like that.

[@queentoe8002]

I was there for Bunny Day 2020. I still vividly remember hearing balloons over my head even when my switch was off 😭

[@SpookyButtz]

SAME

[@michellerodriguez9912]

Same

[@Shespio]

Yes same... it took me months after that to not go mad hearing NORMAL balloons appear x'D

[@missannicherry]

Oh my god same 😂

[@khalisah5231]

Lol same

[@tidmouthmilk12]

I first started playing New Horizons in the middle of the first Bunny Day event. I don't think you need me to tell you how annoying it is trying to grind the early game when half of your resources become eggs >.

[@MrSchimpf]

I still remember being in fatigue from being laid off and grabbing ACNH at Target on launch day trying to figure out my island...and then THIS event for twelve days while I'm trying to get a house from Tom Nook and have anything else to focus on?! It also made me irrationally hate my first lazy Benedict because I got him on the first day of BD week, and all he offered was eggs and BD recipes!

[@bananasryummy]

Same! That’s why I took WEEKS to finally get all my plots set

[@kd16_djamnamanaloto24]

Ikr I was helping timmy and tommy to make nooks cranny and my resources are turning to eggs! Fortunately I was able to finish nooks cranny

[@whimsiee57]

I started playing the first time 3 days ago and it was really tough trying to get resources when all I typically found was eggs lol. I suppose it gave something to do and the eggs look pretty though

[@BlouePickdMan]

When i first played New Horizons it was during the first cherry blossom season (2020) and i didnt know you could catch the the flower petals Then There was 12 Days of non stop eggs! WHY

[@Clube_do_meiodia1]

I woudn't mind the 7 days of eggs everywhere if the clothes and furniture made with them weren't so ugly

[@freida065]

ahahhaa

[@LinktheHylianChampion117]

yeah, definitely, and if all the furniture was customizable.

[@l0tuswing]

Literally the only one I want is the egg basket Zipper gives you and even that won't happen for me :skull:

[@gabn.t]

@@l0tuswing you just need one of each egg it's so easy, don't even need to try to find them all. just shake all the leaf eggs off and trade them for whatever egg you don't have

[@l0tuswing]

@@gabn.t I actually had no idea that you didn't get it for crafting, I got two of them. Thank you sm !!

[@Nyctea_OvO]

IIRC, the 2020 Bunny Day fiasco also coincided with the first Fishing Tourney so... "Want to score a bunch of points for the tournament? Too bad! Here's a Water egg!". By far the worst was getting the Cherry Blossoms DIYs. They were so rare and, while I think the normal balloons and Bunny Day balloons had separate spawn rates even then, it only added to the frustration hearing a balloon and realizing it was a Sky egg... Also, we were crazy back then for resources like wood, stone, iron and clay for the normal DIYs. Yet most of the time we were getting more and more eggs...

[@hayleyrobertson7417]

I literally cried during this lmfao

[@slyar]

I live in the Southern Hemisphere, so Bunny Day and cherry blossom season do not collide for me

[@themadgamer1217]

Long ago, the AC player base lived in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Bunny Day Nation attacked.

[@shinymagpie1268]

I wish Cherry Blossom season was longer. I hardly got any DIY's this time.

[@chuuu4610]

Oh is there any specific ones you needed?

[@theflutefreak]

Same I only got the pochette DIY!

[@jessicaqeiroz8572]

Stop same , I only got the picnic basket one - I don’t regret it though , it’s so cute

[@arescle3147]

Right like I got some of the crafting recipes after the cherry blossom season ended and I was so sad

[@NFLUpdates-pl8nq]

*T I M E T R A V E L*

[@Woah_Egg]

In my opinion, they should do what Stardew Valley did with their egg hunt and you can walk around with an easter egg basket and collect eggs. After that, you can exchange the eggs you got for recipes.

[@diana_rayne]

One advantage to the required mass manufacturing of Bunny Day items comes when restarting your island, or pushing through to that 5th Star, and you need to plop down items all over the landscape. It's a twofer, or threefer when you get to remove the junk and sell them to support your coffee habit.

[@SylviaMarie30]

I feel like bunny day should have been 4 days at most. Good Friday, Saturday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday.

[@sketchnotes2246]

This being my first time experiencing bunny day, I was not aware how disliked it was. I had a fun time collecting the recipes. I think the only thing I didn't like was trying to get the sky eggs.

[@chelseythomas5813]

Sameeee

[@peppycrossing2796]

I wasn’t around for bunny day 2020 so I can laugh at the memes without ever having to experience the horrors

[@Fr0gs...]

Same

[@ConnorTheDragon.]

I got my copy on April 21 2020 so I miss out on bunny day so I can't really relate to the people who went through the trouble and when bunny day 2021 happened I already finished my museum and it was very different for me BTW I really injoy bunny day when it happened so i can't relate sorry

[@maxidy1498]

Same

[@marthamartita5284]

Yea

[@bill_cipher9861]

Same! This year is actually my first Bunny day and tbh I'm glad it's nearly over, the DIYs are very cute and love the items but the eggs are very annoying to gather for the up coming event especially the water and sky ones because they just didn't want to appear for me. The sky ones only appeared every 5 minutes on my island which is the same for normal balloons and the waters ones was just like nope! Not happening

[@ShamanEffect]

I remember half-way through that 12 day stretch, Nintendo actually had to patch the game to nerf the egg drop rate because of all of the complaints. I guess another good thing is that if you did all of the crafting recipes the first time around, the game let's you breeze through the actual Bunny Day event the following years, so you don't have to mess around. I also agree that Festivale should be a multiday celebration.

[@creapeys]

The day Zipper came I saw him standing next to Gulliver… before he woke up. It was awkward, ominous, and absolutely hilarious - or maybe I’m just nuts lol

[@FrankyFiend]

I remember the sky eggs being the most obnoxious that year, even when I would turn my game off I swore I could still hear them 😭

[@CJ4Him]

Same!

[@SiroBenju]

Your description of that first Bunny Day was a nostalgic treat! Getting to play with the early ACNH community seems like 10 years ago...

[@bigpotatoboi8553]

I would have made the eggs appear as a circle shadow in the water instead of the shadow of a *fish* if I was a dev; it makes no sense

[@bubblegumplastic]

I'm surprised 🙈 I really love Easter and so collecting all the little eggs make me happy. It just puts me in a good mood and reminds me of egg collecting as a kid I also love the super creepy mascot, haha. He reminds me of FNAF - I wonder who is inside the suit, slowly being tortured to insanity

[@lindawithrow229]

Yo @bubblegumplastic go watch game theory's video on who is zipper if you want the goods.

[@tchaikovskysno1fan]

He also reminds me of fnaf. He stays still when nobody is near, and when you come near him, it seems like he's going to do a jump scare. Also, if you look at him at night far away, he looks way creepier.

[@miroux1111]

I agree. I love all the bunny day activities. It’s fun. But I do hate the bunny. He’s so annoying. But, I love all the DIYs and the bright cheery decor.

[@michellerodriguez9912]

Same I love bunny day

[@nechma13]

I'm Jewish and i love these things maybe i like it cause I've never celebrated easter

[@KatelynJewel]

Oddly enough I’m glad Bunny Day lasts a few days because I had a more stressful time with Festivale the first year for the opposite reason. While I did get all the items in Nook’s Cranny leading up to it, I could only get every color variation on the day itself, and it still took me hours. It took more dedication than any other holiday because of this, and it actually made me feel exhausted. I’m so glad Cyrus’ customization mechanic was added in the 2.0. update so I never have to go through all that again.

[@LinkMountaineer]

It’s much better now. It’s only a week and the Bunny Day balloons don’t interfere with the normal ones. I’ve seen two balloons spawn at once during Bunny Week last year. I also just really like the Bunny Day theme.

[@CelestineTheConfused]

Ikr! This is my first Bunny Day experience and I find the whole thing cute... and I'm actively looking for more eggs, haha

[@ladynoname3621]

Imagine trying to gather cherry blossom DIYs with the Bunny Day events...

[@LinkMountaineer]

@@ladynoname3621 It can be done. I did. I have all of both now.

[@LinktheHylianChampion117]

we have slightly similar names...

[@LinkMountaineer]

@@LinktheHylianChampion117 Yep! Always cool to find another Zelda fan!

[@elizabethcook2896]

This was my first holiday of the game, I just got ACNH March 1st of 2022 and I was soooo relieved when Bunny Day finally came because it meant the next day I wouldn’t find eggs where my normal items I wanted were typically found. The 7 days was painful enough, I couldn’t imagine 12.

[@Safety1stKatey]

I missed the prior Bunny days so I enjoyed it this year. Also, running up behind Zipper and interacting with him is fun too.

[@HHopebringer]

Southern Hemisphere players had Maple Leaf fall that coincided almost exactly with that egg hell. It was exquisitely frustrating.

[@BWICK]

“the attack of the eggs” 🤣

[@courtlynlouise]

I somehow didn't realize until this year that you can eat eggs, which was a game changer bc I just did a bunch of time traveling to move around all the buildings since I'm redoing my island, so having all the eggs to eat and move trees and shit has been amazing

[@alwaysreadin163]

"The developers thought they should be nice and give us 12. 12 Days of hell." When I tell you I cackled lmao. I picked up my switch for the first time since February after moving into my new apartment and oh my gosh did I do it at the worst time-

[@rashaun7007]

one of the few reasons I was glad for picking up the game late was missing the first bunny day

[@freya1548]

Another positive for eggs you can eat them and use them like fruit to move trees. But yeah I lived through Bunny Wars 2020. It was horrible, I have legit stopped doing my dailies on my new island till this hell is over so I can stop finishing up bloody eggs every 5 seconds, the fossils and trees are what bug me the most, I need crafting mats and nope screw you have some bloody eggs. The only things I am doing on my new island right now is log into the ABD machine to get my daily nook miles and plant my money tree, the rest can wait till Zipper and his eggs have buggered off. Why don't I just time travel? I am trying not to time travel outside of just changing the hour with this island, that way I can have a more true AC experience.

[@Night_Butterfly_x3]

Even my bunny villager (Mira) hates Bunny Day. She stayed in her house all day Easter and went I visited, she went on about how it's all too much "eggcitement," looking quite unamused.

[@sammierose1212]

Easter is my favorite holiday, so I like Bunny Day! That being said, it is less exciting after the first time around. One aspect of Bunny Day that truly is fantastic and should be added to other holidays/seasons are the different colored balloons!! We have rainbow balloons for eggs, why not pink balloons for cherry blossom DIYs? Orange balloons for mushrooms DIYs? Snowflake-decorated ones for winter? Seriously, it would be amazing!!

[@angrytriangles]

I've been doing a huge remodel of my island so the eggs have been useful because I just dig em up and eat em, I don't have to run all the way back to my house to get peaches out of storage each time I need food.

[@reesethealpaca3342]

Trees 😶

[@nirrti7]

I had to time-skip away from the bunny weeks because I'm trying to make a gold rose field. The earth eggs were spawning on the very spots the gold rose buds would've been.

[@veteranJMacfan]

I didn't get my game until that first August so I missed out on the hell that was Bunny Day. And I got into the spirit of it when it finally did come around. This year, though... I'll admit that I'm annoyed. I love reaping the benefits of the Nook Miles + program and the fact getting Wood Eggs doesn't count toward the "Chopping Wood" goal really annoys me. Plus the tree eggs and ground eggs ruining the asthetic of my island just because I didn't cover every single space with custom designs. Oh well- at least after tomorrow it'll be over until next year

[@caitlinbishop6624]

I worked so hard on my first bunny day because I thought that I’d get a big prize at the end. 😩 I was soooo annoyed at the end

[@alyssadickinson4450]

Same like really THAT was the big prize? I thought maybe it would be like a float or something like in festival

[@abbytimmons9912]

I know! You craft all that stuff and collect all those recipes just to get ANOTHER recipe! 😡😡

[@sacely3]

12 DAYS?!?! I started playing acnh less than a year ago so i feel lucky I've only been able to experience it for a week and I've been enjoying it so far...and since I've already done a lot, it's not as frustrating finding eggs everywhere instead of fossils or fish or diy recipes....you acnh veterans have been through a lot during the early days lol

[@afiliaassela]

It could be 4 days in my opinion like the German Eastern Holiday Times, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

[@mistahl5350]

I didn't play in 2020 for the first bunny day. Heard how awful it was, skipped 2021's bunny day. Saw Zipper this year and thought "Fine, I'll deal with your nonsense, you abomination" I'll admit, that's probably the most I've played ACNH for awhile now

[@Matsuri2009]

thankfuly this year its only 8 days long. i remember year one of acnh, bunny day was a nightmare between the crap ton of eggs or the annoying balloons.

[@l0sts0ul72]

Tbh, I really like Zipper. He's funny as Hell at times, and sketchy, and that makes him great to me. The eggs though... *sweating*

[@guysimlemonreal]

the only reason I hate bunny day is because all the villagers on islands wear hideous egg costumes

[@rokiryei]

The costumes looks silly lmfao

[@oliviastewart1650]

This is my first year playing animal crossing...I almost had a stroke when I saw Zipper for the first time. He was just chilling near the museum jumping around. I almost logged off...

[@VaskoGames]

You fished out an egg! It'S aT LeAsT a C+ ;_;

[@Vyran_]

dont forget the update the came out the first year that said they would reduce the amount of eggs we would find on our islands.....we still found a ton XD

[@ginnycurry84]

“it’s your fault eggs are exsisting. thanks.” i would say sorry, but that was uncalled for, so i’m glad u have the cursed eggs >:(

[@FoggyBadger]

Last year, I put like a hundred of each type of egg in my storage. This year, I barely picked any up. When Zipper said he wanted one of each type of egg, I just placed my storage shed, pulled out the eggs, and he was like, "YOU DID IT!" lol

[@mikeyy2510]

Bunny Day had so much potential like the furniture set is BOMB 💣 The “leading” character (Zipper) is funny and relatable and the idea is CRISP but the egg spawn rates are just hell 🔥 and the end prize is a wand… Like what in the TINKERBELL 😭 I was expecting like a huge golden egg statue or something not a friggin’ EGG WAND

[@ASwagPecan]

I have such nostalgia for bunny day 2020, personally. Animal Crossing on launch was the perfect transition into covid lockdown and while I haven’t touched it much since those first 2-3 months since launch, I’ll always cherish the 160+ hours of memories I had with it.

[@aSquidMin]

Cant believe Nintendo declared war on Easter

[@hikariwuff]

I'm thankful Bunny Day isn't too close to the end of April, since near the end of the month is usually when I realize that I need to fill my critterpedia with fish that leave when the month ends. Water eggs would definitely stop me from doing that lol

[@AndersKingBee]

There’s another good side to the eggs: since they’re edible, they’re basically free food.

[@slagforyanfei6597]

personally, i don't mind the holiday but that's because my island is like super pastel and colourful, so I end up using the bunny day items (especially the fences and arch) quite a bit. although I do totally understand people not enjoying the event if the items don't fit their aesthetic.

[@hollie3310]

I think they’ve definitely nerfed the egg rates this year. I had to actually spend a WHILE searching for enough water eggs for the DIYS

[@Ethar_is_chilling_here]

Fun fact about me zipper T bunny is my favorite Character in ac

[@angeladawn805]

I actually enjoyed bunny day, especially since it fell on my birthday, so I even got a virtual birthday party (never had one in analogue life- but hosted many) so it was all fine by me :)

[@KirbyKen]

because it's terrifying, like how he stare to the player and dance menacingly

[@ZeoViolet]

I seem to recall that after a number of days on that first Bunny Day, the team at Nintendo heard our complaints because they reduced the high number of eggs for the rest of the time until the Bunny Day event itself, and since then they've toned it down for the last two, only having that high number of eggs on the day of.

[@Nurylon]

Between not missing out on Fishing Tourney points, Cherry Blossom recipes, and just plain having more fish variety available . . . I had a really smooth 2020 Bunny Day in the Southern Hemsphere. But it was STILL all the Bunny Day I EVER needed. This year I put my island in Winter instead of doing Bunny Day . . .

[@Ejdhh-ki5mo]

I hate that if you have patterns covering your island you need to spend so much nook miles to get those earth, stone, and leaf eggs

[@crispearson4668]

Kora walking slowly behind Zipper with an axe was hilarious 😆

[@pumpkinspice7306]

I actually love Zipper T bunny, One because Bunny day is my favourite event, and two, I think he’s actually kinda cute.

[@vanessar.6085]

My kid and I were playing this game together near daily. She restarted her island and it was fun experiencing firsts all over again! Then bunny season came. It was my first, it was their second. But I excitedly said "OH LOOK! AN EGG!" She looked at me and said "Mom, I'm not going to play for a few weeks. Zipper is coming." "Who is Zipper?" "You'll see...and you'll hate it." I didn't hate it, but I can see how it can be frustrating when you're trying to farm for materials or finish a collection. I just wanted all the recipes.

[@ShuckfacedShank]

This was my first Bunny Day and I actually really enjoyed it

[@Shining.Aubrey]

On bunny day… I didn’t even bother to play

[@Jasmine-xy3gm]

i spent 7 hours straight trying to finish the activities

[@con_txt9042]

I like that I can hit rocks and get something to eat and break them with

[@purplestarkatz]

The bunny day eggs were great when I was re-doing my island and moving trees in the days before cooking. I got the game partway into Bunny Day in 2020, so it never annoyed me as much as everyone who played at launch anyway lol.

[@stranger5877]

I really miss my dad. never take yours for granted

[@darkgoddess4u957]

This was my first Bunny Day. It wasn't bad. I was worried I wouldn't have enough Sky eggs, but I got everything done I wanted to. But we'll see about next year.

[@thebest.cornbread8795]

bro i love how in city folk zipper mutters shit like "man this mask keeps fogging up" or "cant wait to go home" and in new leaf he goes "THIS IS DEFINITLY NOT A COSTUME HAHAHA😅"

[@Roserae16]

The only good thing about the holiday this year is I'd just made a new island and you can now eat the eggs, which made moving trees to flatten my island a lot easier 😅

[@maevemilless4561]

Literally the only reason I logged on the first day of egg torment this year was because I got burnt out and felt so bad for leaving my villagers for a 1-month hiatus, only broken because I didn’t want to miss Celia’s bday. That and to smack Zipper on the head with my net like 20 gajillion times.

[@RealStormTB]

I kindof feel bad for zipper he gets too much hate. Bunny day is kindof fun, the amount of constant eggs can be annoying.

[@danjun7986]

I finally did it all after ignoring it for like two years 😂 AND IT WAS SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT IN EXHAUSTED AND IT WAS NOT WORTH IT

[@kierenbuckley370]

this is Data Egg's favourite holiday

[@cookedghost]

Don't forget Bunny Day DIYs crowding out all the cherry blossom ones! In 2020 the two basically overlapped, I remember people (including me) were desperate for months to get some cherry blossom recipes D:

[@Un1corns]

I thought the most annoying thing was trying to find fossils like man I found like none so I just gave up and haven’t found any in 6 days

[@kaylialyson7837]

i actually didn’t mind it, therefore some things did annoy me but that was all on me. once i got the hang of it, i thought it was actually pretty fun!

[@hypnos2434]

I started playing on May 2021, so i just missed the bunny day on my early days. I've completed my island this time so i actually enjoyed bunny day.

[@MissusAnon]

The fact that the eggs don't stack in your inventory is like the last diabolical layer to this hell 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Chubby_Bub]

I'm the only one who liked Bunny Day. I didn’t mind the eggs too much because I'm a nutso who wanted to collect them for the furniture, and on the actual day I paved my island's paths while listening to the amazing music. That said, the lead-up with the eggs was definitely a bit excessive.

[@iloveowls90]

I think people who do like bunny day are the ones who started this year(they changed it so it started on the 10th of April instead of the 1st

[@Chubby_Bub]

@@iloveowls90 Nah, I got the game the day it came out. I think I was just having a good time playing the game then. There's an odd nostalgia for the early quarantine days…

[@node-ks]

I just got a switch and acnh last week, so my entire experience has been eggday lol and even I am tired

[@jannbertoncello5072]

I loved your video! I just started about 3 weeks ago then BAM!! Bunny Day. Geez..trying to get my island going on all I seem to get are 🥚 ! It's like the Twilight Zone. I haven't figured out how to time travel yet, but 1 thing I know is that was my 1st and last bunny day! So glad I found your channel !!

[@celinev8690]

Fun fact: If you use a reaction in front of Zipper he stops hopping and you can walk around him. If you click 'a' while standing behind him he gets angry (because he wants to hide the zipper on his back)

[@breadbird]

Me, a time traveler during bunny day: i’ll do these crafting things, talk to zipper, and then time skip.

[@JD-iu6rv]

I don’t hate Bunny Day. It’s just fun to make fun of Zipper

[@lindawithrow229]

Now, please don't hate me for this, but I don't mind bunny day because I don't really need to get materials anymore because I have tons of them. In fact, bunny day is kinda fun cause there's a few good recipes like the rug. This makes me farm for eggs, which has been good since I don't worry about wood or stone, just eggs. Its also good to get other materials, too. I never knew farming materials could be so much fun.

[@kalpic11]

It's funny because in City Folk I constantly time travel to Bunny Day to make money to buy all the Gracie Grace furniture.

[@PoppaPig1]

EGGS THE DEVIL OF THE GAME. zipper is something... someone in a suit.

[@lola-kz5bn]

I joined animal crossing during the first Bunny day week, which meant it took me wayyyy longer to progress through the start of the game because half of the resources I needed became 50% EGGS!

[@OtakuAudioRedux]

You can also eat the eggs for energy, great if you don't have access to cooking recipes yet and want to save your fruit for planting or crafting!

[@thisrandomturtlefromsample6572]

I like to collect the eggs for moving trees, they’re good because they can stack up to 30 in one slot

[@theengineer8290]

The sky eggs were a pain, ended up trading wood eggs (the easiest to get) with the villagers for those. Worked out, had all items crafted within 2 hours or so.

[@annagala4620]

I really like bunny day maybe bc it was my first one the only thing i hate is how it over laps with cherry blossom season and the only diy i found was the picnic

[@starringrien1114]

seriously tho- i have so much bunny day furniture in my storage. bunny day lamp, bunny day wardrobe, bunny day wall clock, bunny day vanity, bunny day bed, bunny day balloons, bunny day table, bunny day stool, earth and leaf egg outfits- IT DOESNT COME TO AN END

[@logankerr8090]

if they added more items/recipes every year, then it wouldn't be as bad

[@speedypichu6833]

of course I need to get back into it during this time😭😭✋

[@KyleJWest-vn9kn]

I never understood why they went so overboard with the Easter event but then you can play every day during Halloween and Christmas and it feels like you barely get all the DIY's (I'm still missing some from each set).

[@arijeanz]

as a new leaf player everyone hating egg day really confused me, but now i can clearly see why

[@kittiekat10105]

I still think Zipper is a mafia enforcer here to intimidate Nook
