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.
In round 3 it was brought to everyone's attention by the host, NightShiftAnon(shortened NSA), that he strongly suspected that several contestants were being rigged. Despite it all he was pushed into revealing the suspected rigged characters' names and to let them remain in the contest under the belief that anons would vote them out. While Fang was not among them, her final opponent, Shirley, was. In Round 3 it was revealed rigging had been happening since round one, but most of these characters were voted out except Mrs. Brisby. NSA stated, Fang had been rigged against in all of her rounds and almost lost Round 1 because of it. He called her the “rigger killer”, because “she beat every single one”. This spawned the phrase “anti-asterisk”.
During the final voting round NSA included questions regarding how to best handle certain situations going forward, rigged characters included. After what was seen as a failure to remove cheaters by voting them out, the majority voted for the host to simply remove the amount of suspected rigged votes. NSA chose to enact that policy with the final round, announcing he had tossed out around 100 votes in addition to demoting Shirley to 3rd place and bumping [[Chel]], the opponent she had defeated to advance to the finals, to 2nd. This was met with extremely mixed results, with Chel's supporters feeling that NSA should have acted earlier than the finals and allow Chel to advance instead, and that she was denied a matchup against Fang and a potential win. "Spirited" discussion on the matter lasted for several hours. Some anons suggested a do-over round, but due to a lack of time allowed by the mods, the amount of spite that would surely affect the outcome, and the general feeling of unfairness to both Fang, Chel and their fans, it wasn't held. Others proposed that Chel be exempted from the Elite Eight rule and be allowed to participate in 2023, but it was never solidified.
Despite all of the shit-flinging and asterisks, Fang's win is overall still seen as legitimate, with several anons saying that they think the likelihood of her beating Chel would be high.
