Now with a proper serialized webcomic at her side, Emmy returned in the [[Ms. /co/ 2020|2020 contest]] with high hopes of qualifying. However, she was targeted throughout the whole tournament by a noted troll (presumed to be <abbr title="fusefag/gatsky">''"that massive faggot"''</abbr><ref>[https://imgur.com/a/RU6YDsy Fusefag Advisory]</ref><ref>[https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/103254101/#103262752 An example of Fusefag's true nature]</ref><ref>[https://desuarchive.org/co/search/text/a%20fusion%20universe/username/fusefag/ He keeps pushing his tourney that no one likes]

</ref>) who has a history of shitting up past nandroid threads. During the nomination round, the troll used the name "'''REMOVE /POL/ PROPAGANDA CHARACTERS'''", attempting to damage her reputation by posting many inflammatory comments intended to bait replies, pretending to be other anons (samefagging), and associating Emmy with "Nazis", "incels", and "brigades from /pol/". ''Maybe Tommorow'' protagonist [[Skyla]] was also similarly targeted with the same objective. While Skyla failed to qualify for the main bracket, Emmy's result was far more successful, having secured an unexpectedly high 5th seed. This was enough to satisfy some Emmyfags, who didn't expect her to do well in the first place.<br><br>

Emmy's debut match pitted her against ''Xiaolin Showdown's'' [[Wuya]], which brought a sizable amount of banter, greentexts, and fanart for both contestants. Unfortunately, the robot got embroiled in an even bigger controversy later in the first round: an anonymous user known as "'''Basilanon'''" (named for its [[Basil|Detective Basil]] avatar) discovered that ''Random Cartoon'', a Spanish-language Facebook page known for putting their watermarks on other people's drawings, had posted links to the Ms. /co/ threads. The posts gave instructions on how to vote in the contest and encouraged users ~~them~~ to vote for Emmy (and to a lesser extent [[Miko Kubota|Miko]]).<ref>https://archive.vn/gCJOJ#selection-12001.1-912.3</ref><ref>[https://img.fireden.net/co/image/1600/12/1600125459079.jpg Screenshot of Random Cartoon reposting Anon's Miko post verbatim]</ref> The page was later revealed to have been posting links to the 2019 final campaigning for [[Spinel]] votes, which reignited disputes questioning the legitimacy of the gem's title.<ref>[https://img.fireden.net/co/image/1600/12/1600128741161.png Screenshot of Random Cartoon posting 2019 Ms. /co/ final]</ref>

The Emmy fanbase is known for having a sizable number of writefags and drawfags, so it's no surprise that she gets many fanarts in the Ms. /co/ntests. The ''Random Cartoon'' incident became one of 2020's most infamous highlights, with Emmy becoming heavily associated with '''Peru''', the country from which the Facebook page is thought to originate from. ~~The event~~ was largely interpreted with events such as the robot being banished to the South American country, or as an (implied) gang-rape scene done by poncho-wearing immigrants.
