Why is Fang so popular?

[Vizionari]

I'm not a big fan of the wolves, I'd prefer Chief personally But Fang has a clean look I guess.

I find Fang to be one of the prettiest designed characters in this game. He just has a really beautiful design, that kinda makes up for when he's rude (as a cranky villager).

I don't know why he is so popular.

 

[Mayor-Hazel]

he is one of my dreamies and i think he is the only cute grumpy villager <3

 

[Soundmotion]

No good reason, he shouldn't be. He's overrated.

Ha! I'm talking to Fang in game right now!

Huehue me too, just conned him into buying a skeleton figure from Re-Tail.

I picked him out pre-release as a character I really liked the look of, he has pretty eyes and I prefer the more subtle designs, and sheer luck made it so that he was my first ever villager move-in (no resetting). I was ecstatic, even though I initially thought he was a girl (I know >__<; ) and I had no idea he was popular, and his cranky personality grew on me immensely.
He's now the oldest resident in my town, moved in 19th June 2013, and my best-friend villager.

.. I never invite him to my house though, crankies are so rude about your home. xD

But yea, as others have said... just because you don't like a villager, doesn't mean other people don't feel the same. And I'm sure MOST people don't pick villagers 'just because' they're popular, people want villagers they actually love.
So... lots of people love Fang. Who cares? I'm happy for him. x)

Although he's not my dreamie, I have to admit he's pretty cool

 

[snapdragon]

I personally prefer Chief because I like his coloring more

My boyfriend got Fang as one of his starters in his second town and he loves him; Fang is his bestie in his new town.

Neither of us knew he was really popular until we looked it up. He's just adorable and I personally LOVE the cranky villagers.

And I have a couple "popular" villagers stocked up at the moment so I can have a bargaining chip for when I have room for my dreamies.

 

[Noodledude]

Arctic wolves are pretty cool yo.

 

[Silversea]

Because Fang x anyone is the best Animal Crossing pairing in the universe?

On a more serious note:
1. he is a wolf, one of the most popular animals in the world
2. his design isn't rainbows and scribbles and skldfksdgkslg
3. insert more reasons

One thing not mentioned is that Fang can be charming. He is the type of Cranky who is straightforward, sometimes blunt, but will let you know he appreciates what you do for him. He comes across like he appreciates your company. And, in all this, there seems to be expression that Fang wants your friendship. And he smiles. He actually smiles. This, along with the physical appearance of this Cranky wolf, has a strong impact on our collective appreciations of Fang.

Reasons:
His look, its pretty simple and cool.
His house interior.
One of the better looking cranky.
His motto, "You mess with the wolf, you get the fangs."
He isn't a Jerk.
He's a Wolf.

(Personality, I prefer Lobo or Wolfgang.)

his eyes. HIS EYES! *o*
I have him in my town (along with the other 7 wolves) and he's cute as a button, whenever I look at those eyes I can't look away XD
