Birthdays and Villagers' Favorite Gifts - Harvest Moon: Light of Hope Guide
Increase friendship points (FP) with the villagers in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope is very important. Even though it does not has many effects on the main storyline.
However, it is very related to the request from villagers and marriage. If you want to marry one of the marriage candidates, surely you have to raise their FP.
In Harvest Moon: Light of Hope, you need at least 4 pink music notes and other terms to get married. Like most Harvest Moon series, you just need to meet, talk and give them gifts every day to raise the FP of the villagers.
You can give them a gift they love (favorite) to boost their FP, especially if you give it on their birthdays. If the Villagers love the gifts, It should pop up Red hearts above their head. While if they just like it, it will surface Yellow musical notes.
Harvest Moon: Light of Hope Gifts Guide: Birthdays, Likes and Dislikes
I didn't list what they "like" because it can be anything between the favorite and dislike gifts.
