The bottom left moving boxes indicates whether you had this villager once before and is no longer a part of your town.

Account Deletion
You can request to delete your data from the cloud backup service by emailing dapperappdeveloper@gmail.com
Alternatively, you can erase all your data manually by uploading a blank collection to your account.
After confirmation through email, this will delete all your cloud data: including but not limited to; your collection and to-do list items. After the deletion process you will not be able to access your account or data associated as your account will be deleted from the server. You can always create a new account as needed after this process.
Data stored on cloud backup services can be subject to deletion at any time, especially if the user has not accessed their account within a specified period, typically at least a year from their last sign-in date. This practice is implemented to ensure that unused information is not unnecessarily retained, safeguarding the privacy of users. While data may be scheduled for deletion, it can persist for an extended duration unless explicitly requested to be removed by the user, from the process stated above.
