Nintendo’s Mii characters have been a staple of virtual life simulation for years, giving players the chance to create avatars that interact in hilarious and unexpected ways. Whether in Tomodachi Life, Miitopia, or the Mii Channel, these quirky little figures have found bizarre ways to ruin their own relationships. From awkward breakups to ridiculous misunderstandings, here are some of the funniest times Miis have sabotaged their own love lives.
1. The Love Confession Gone Horribly Wrong
In Tomodachi Life, Miis can confess their love to another Mii, often with disastrous results. One user shared a story about how their Mii chose to confess to their crush in the most ridiculous way—by dressing up as a banana and serenading them. Predictably, the crush rejected them, citing that they “weren’t ready for that level of commitment.” The Mii then spiraled into a depressive episode, crying in their apartment for days while stuffing their face with virtual tissues.
2. The “Accidental” Breakup
Sometimes, Miis don’t even need help ruining their relationships. In one instance, a happily dating couple in Tomodachi Life had been together for months—until one day, one of them simply “forgot” they were in a relationship. The other Mii went to confront them, only for the guilty party to respond, “Oh… we were dating?” This led to an immediate and heart-wrenching breakup, complete with dramatic crying animations and, of course, an immediate request for new clothes.
3. The Third-Wheel Disaster
Love triangles are common in Tomodachi Life, and they almost always lead to pure chaos. One infamous moment involved a Mii trying to confess their love to another while a rival showed up mid-confession to plead their own case. Instead of choosing between them, the Mii simply panicked and rejected both, leaving all three crying on a park bench. The rejected Miis then immediately went on to date each other out of sheer spite.
4. The Wedding That Went Off the Rails
Miis can get married in Tomodachi Life, but sometimes, things don’t go as planned. One player recounted how their two Miis reached the altar, only for the bride to suddenly declare she had “changed her mind.” Instead of a happy wedding, the groom was left sitting at the altar while the jilted Mii went straight home and took a nap. The best part? The game still listed them as “close friends,” as if nothing had happened.
5. The Mii Who Fell in Love with the Wrong Person
In Miitopia, relationships between party members affect gameplay, but they can also lead to ridiculous betrayals. One player noticed that their main character’s best friend suddenly started favoring another Mii, leading to dramatic jealousy animations mid-battle. This escalated to the point where the original best friend refused to heal the player’s character, instead prioritizing their new favorite. The result? A complete breakdown in party dynamics, with the scorned Mii letting their former bestie get KO’d out of sheer pettiness.
6. The Mii Who Dated Their Own Lookalike
A particularly bizarre Tomodachi Life incident involved a player creating two near-identical Miis. Instead of dating other options, these two Miis fell in love with each other. The player, amused, let the relationship develop—until they noticed the two Miis often argued over who was “more attractive.” After a heated argument, the pair broke up, but the heartbreak didn’t last long; one Mii quickly started dating their own clone from another save file.
7. The Ultimate Revenge Relationship
Miis have no shame when it comes to rebounding. In one case, a couple that had been together for months broke up because one Mii claimed they “needed more space.” The very next day, that same Mii was spotted going on a date with their ex’s best friend. When confronted, they simply shrugged and continued eating their digital spaghetti.
8. The Jealousy-Fueled Food Fight
Miis can get jealous in the pettiest ways. In one infamous Tomodachi Life feud, a Mii got so jealous of their partner giving more attention to another friend that they refused to eat anything other than the worst food available. The player was forced to watch as their Mii angrily devoured plates of broccoli and stale crackers while glaring at their love interest from across the island.
9. The Mii Who Broke Up Over a Hat
Customization is a big deal for Miis, but sometimes it’s taken too far. One player shared that their Mii dumped their partner because of an argument over a hat. The partner suggested a different accessory, to which the Mii responded, “I don’t think we’re right for each other.” Within minutes, they were crying in their apartment while staring at the rejected hat in their inventory.
10. The Honeymoon Fight That Never Ended
A newlywed Mii couple decided to take a honeymoon trip, but things quickly went south. Midway through the vacation, one Mii got upset because their spouse “wasn’t paying enough attention to them.” Instead of resolving it, the upset Mii sulked for the rest of the trip, making the entire vacation awkward. Even after returning home, the Mii continued bringing up the trip in conversations, refusing to let the grudge go.
Final Thoughts
Miis have a special talent for turning simple relationships into absolute disasters. Whether it’s through jealousy, forgetfulness, or plain bad luck, their antics never fail to entertain. While real-life relationships can be complicated, at least they don’t usually end over a banana suit or a poorly chosen hat—though maybe that’s for the best.
