Spoiler:
Which/who is the best...
1. Town Leader: Megan, Tototara, or Ginjiro?
Tototara hands down. I love her sense of humor and she instantly felt like my own grandmother. She's one of the few I always stop to actually talk to (as in not just pressing the L button and walking off) and I admire her for having to deal with the twins and Ludus all on her own.
2. Restaurant: Garden Grill, Carosello Café, or Tea-ful Reunion?
Garden Grill. I hate Westown but the Garden Grill feels like a place I'd actually go to, plus they have music! Not only that but I love the events that happen there, Carrie is hilarious and I love the friendship Ford, Wayne and Brad have. Also the carosello only sells drinks and ice cream...and I don't like having to talk to Ginjiro.
3. New Year's Celebration: Fireworks Show, Bonfire Dance, or Bell Ringing?
Bonfire dance, simply because I think it's nice to have another cultural approach than just Asian or Western. Also it felt really spiritual which I find intriguing.
4. Trilympics Event: Egg Hunt, Fishing Tournament, or Daruma Hunt?
Egg hunt and Daruma hunt are the same thing, but the Darumas are cuter so I choose the Daruma hunt! Although I'm happy I finally got my easter-esque festival. I hate fishing, my dad used to force me to wake up with him to fish, and I never fish in games unless it's RF so the fishing festival is boring to me.
5. Romantic Festival: Starry Night, Luminance, or Tanabata?
I didn't get to go to the Tanabata festival at all, but I suppose I would go with the Luminance festival...hot air balloons are cool though, but I'd rather go with Ludus than Wayne or Ford.
6. Part-Time Job Dude: Horatio, Hoala, or Rikyu?
They're all basically the same to me, but maybe Hoala? Just because his name is a letter away from koala.
7. Transportation Method: Stage Coach, Elephant Taxi, or Palanquin?
Elephant taxi! Elephants are adorable. Who wants a horse-that you can just buy yourself- when you can ride on an elephant?
8. Old Man: Marco, Haulani, or Umekichi?
I talked to Umekichi more, but I think Haulani is cool because I got to learn about him in an event. The guy has an interesting background which means a lot to me for a character, so I'm going with Haulani.
9. Old Woman: Megan, Tototara, or Omiyo?
Tototara, I love the lady. Omiyo is pretty adorable too, though.
10. Town Guardian: Dessie, Witchie, or Inari?
Oddly enough...Dessie. In SoS I loved Witchie way more, but for some reason in this game I visited her the least. Dessie is such a sweetheart in this game, and much less annoying. Inari...means absolutely nothing to me so I don't even consider them an option.
11. Young Boy: Colin, Schalk, or Yaichi?
Schalk, I dislike all of them though. But I got a lot of events with Schalk that were somewhat cute and his family redeems him.
12. Young Girl: Noel, Alma, or Sumomo?
Alma. I respect Noel only because she can see Dessie, and I think she and Colin are cute but only when they're together as childhood sweethearts. Alma is adorable and her comments about the bachelors amused me. Sumomo I respect for trying hard but I barely talk to her (I just press L and leave)
13. Older Boy: Tigre or Tatsumi? (no Westown equivalent)
I love both of them equally. They're both polite sweethearts and I wish they were older so they could be candidates. That said, I'm fine with being both of their stand in big sisters. Tigre also makes me miss Sanjay...and Tatsumi makes me dislike Hinata even more. It's odd Westown has no equivalent...
14. Frustratingly Already-Married Woman: Carrie, Caolila, or Shizu?
Caolila, although I very much want her to stay married to Zahau, I wish she was my mom. Her and Zahau's family have become my favorite bokumono family. This woman is a beast and the people in town know it and I adore her because of it. I thank Shizu for having Tatsumi and making the 3 outfits I decided I wanted from Tsuyukasa. Carrie is...nice enough. She's like a better version of AP's Maya and I like that she sees me as her little sister. She's nowhere near as amazing as Caolila though. I'd switch Caolila for Marlena any day.
15. Frustratingly Already-Married Man: Brad, Zahau, or Ittetsu?
None of them. Brad and Zahau are good buds though. Both of them have quirky wives and are really nice guys. I have never spoken to Ittetsu outside of pressing L and I don't want to.
