Fang

Fang is one of the two main protagonists of the 2019 Emmy-award winning Adult Swim animated series Primal, created by Genndy Tartakovsky. She appears as a green, medium-sized, striped Tyrannosaur who gets her name from a distinctive large tooth on her mouth's right side. Fang is introduced bringing home food to her two offspring, and encounters a caveman named Spear. Soon after, a group of large red dinosaurs arrives and kills Fang's children, but with Spear's help the duo manage to kill all of the predators. Bonded by mutual tragedy, Spear and Fang gradually develop a deep, mutualistic relationship towards each other in order to survive in the harsh and dangerous world they live in.

Fang is unique among the Ms. /co/ roster simply because she's a literal fucking dinosaur who behaves and acts like one, which makes her a popular /co/ntrarian pick at first. However, her popularity is justified since the show is widely praised for its art style, action sequences, and dialogue-less narrative; the character herself has also been praised for her relationship with Spear. The dinosaur made her name as one of the highlights of Ms. /co/ 2020, where her low seed and unconventional appeal turned her into a fan-favorite contender for the Jenny, supported by a loose group of vocal supporters who call themselves the "Fang Gang." She finished in third place, which would be the best a non-anthropomorphic animal character has ever done in the /co/ntests until her victory in 2022.

Fang made her return to Ms. /co/ in 2022 to much hype and anticipation. She would win the final matchup against Shirley the Medium, earning her a spot in Waifuhalla. She is the first non-anthropomorphic animal character to win a title in any of the /co/ or /v/ tournaments and her victory marks the first time a returning Elite Eight member has won. Fang is also the first character to break the #1 seed curse that has loomed over the tournament since Ms. /co/ 2019.

As she has won Ms. /co/ 2022, Fang is no longer eligible for Ms. /co/ tournaments.

Tournament history
Fang was seeded 65th in her first Ms. /co/ appearance. After defeating Mirror Tulip in Round 1, she faced the first seed and tournament favorite Toph Beifong in Round 2. However, the prospect of a dinosaur winning a waifu contest was too good to pass up, which became a key factor on the dinosaur's eventual upset win against the earthbender. She then proceeded to defeat humanoid /co/ waifus Mavis, Lord Dominator, and two-time elite 8 member Starfire in the following rounds, gaining both vocal supporters and salty detractors along the way. Fang's rampage was eventually stopped in the semi-finals after she lost to eventual champion Mrs. Monarch by just 9 votes; several anons have speculated that had it not been for Adult Swim cancelling Venture Bros at the time, Fang would have most likely been the champion. The dinosaur eventually placed third with a blowout win over Kim Possible. By the end of the contest, Fang ended up as the most popular subject of fan art, garnering over 100 entries in the Ms. /co/ booru from that contest alone.

After a two year hiatus Fang returned in 2022, earning 1st seed. This was received with mixed results, as the past years had proven the top seed of the tournament tended to do poorly. Fang would narrowly win her first match against 128th seed Desiree, causing further worry that spite would soon knock her out of the contest. Fang, however, would go on to easily defeat her opponents for the next several rounds: Ahsoka, Gadget and then Raven for a spot in the Elite 8. She would win against Mrs. Brisby in the quarter-finals, an anticipated matchup that resulted in the "Brisbybros" throwing their support in with the "Fanggang" after Fang's win. Fang's win over Nicole Watterson allowed her to move onto the finals against Shirley the Medium, with Fang ultimately triumphing with 54.9% of the vote.

As in 2020, Fang's run was marked with controversy, with many anons voicing their feelings on how a literal dinosaur winning would tarnish what they felt was a conventional waifu contest, with others claiming Fang would not have done so well if the contest wasn't coinciding with the airing of Primal's second season. This sparked multiple discussions on Fang's character, but ultimately did not have a negative impact on her run. She again served as an inspiration for lots of OC.
