We’re over halfway through 2021, and that means the new Girl of the Year (or as the rumors say, 2 new Girls of the Year) is coming soon-ish! I haven’t done the Girl of the Year pattern theory like I did last year yet because I haven’t had time (and it seems like next year will be different), but I decided to look at my theories for Kira and see how accurate they were!
Girl of the Year 2021 will be a creative-type doll.
This theory was inaccurate. Kira is more of an adventure-type, but in a different vein then Joss. Joss is sporty, but Kira likes animals.
2. Girl of the Year 2021 will have the Josefina mold and blue eyes.
Partially true. Kira does have the Josefina mold, but she has green eyes instead of blue.
3. Girl of the Year 2021 will have wavy or curly hair.
True! Kira has wavy hair.
4. Girl of the Year 2021 will visit a tropical destination and have an adventure.
Partially true. Australia isn’t tropical, but she did have an adventure there!
5. Girl of the Year 2021 will be adventurous and have an interest in animals.
True!
6. Girl of the Year 2021 will have blonde hair.
True! Kira does have blonde hair.
7. Girl of the Year 2021 will be Japanese.
Inaccurate. This was a good theory, though, considering the Tokyo Olympics.
8. Girl of the Year 2021 will deal with climate change.
I was right! Kira’s stories did deal with climate change.
Most of the theories were actually right, which is pretty cool!
My theories for 2022 GOTYs(I hope they make twins!!!)
Corinne(is that how you spell it?) Tan
Corinne likes being creative. She enjoys drawing, sewing, and pottery. She entered a vase she sculpted in an art contest, and is currently waiting on the results, which she isn't that nervous about, because unlike her sister, Gwynn, she isn't that competitive.
Gwynn Tan
She enjoys hiking, sports, and any outdoor activity. She dyed her hair pink because everyone on her volleyball team was doing it, but then she decided that she liked it, so she kept it. Gwynn has a summer job at a national park as a tour guide.
I hope there are twins! it would be awesome!!
Speaking of Kira theories, I have one that might be really dumb but I'm actually starting to believe: I don't think she was supposed to come out this early. Me and a friend looked over her collection, and while her plushies are cute, a good chunk of her outfits/accessories are clear Lea knockoffs, and while her story is well-written a lot of the plot beats are pretty predictable. As well as this, the doll is possibly one of the blandest AG has done, which is interesting, as the CYO they used for Alexis has proven to be much more popular among the dedicated fanbase.
My theory, in short, is that Kira was not the original plan for a 2021 doll;…
I don't think so. I think they would be separate, and they would both be the same price. I am planning to get both of the girls once they are out. I also think that this rumor will be true. I remember that back in 2009, when Chrissa was the girl of the year, she also had her friends Gwen and Sonali, and all of them were in separate boxes, and they were the same price. I'm sure these twin girls will be sold the same way, in separate boxes, for the same price.
I really really hope that the rumor of twin GOTYs holds true, but I'm worried about what the cost would be. What I mean is, would AG try to only sell them together (since they'd be twins), and thus have it be way more expensive than just buying one doll?
