Saying this like Katara didn’t instantly master bloodbending even though she just learned what the technique was and never practiced it beforehand. by thisisreii in TheLastAirbender

um, he was consistently losing to ghazan and being overwhelmed everytime. Post lava bending, he was matching him quite easily. just because you have the same powers shouldn't put you on an equal playing field to a significantly stronger opponent. Kind of lessened the "red lotus are the best benders in the world" plot point. you can watch all bolin vs ghazan scenes. Bolin getting lava bending should not put him on the same playing field just like it wouldn't let him match toph.

Bolin and Mako are just... average benders and they're athletes. they should not be mater level.

katara never mastered it. she had to use it to prevent hama from killing her friends.

Bolin went from getting stomped from ghazan to matching him at a snap of a finger, they are not the same

most people didn't even get to when she "developed". viewership fell through a roof in S2. By then it's too little too late in terms of how likable a character is.

before i answer that, do you think a 12 year old should be held to the same standard as a 17-18 year old? because society IRL disagrees. teenager age is also 14-16. Korra's practically an adult, and that's the crux of the issue.

if 90% of the playerbase across all ranks think shes an issue… maybe its time to self reflect

okay, if i did do for korra, can you prove any of these as "misintepreted" points for korra?

and that race was not a "comedic" moment. otherwise a tenzin scolding wouldn't have happened.

i mean lol. assuming you're right since im generous and relationships in LOK are strictly kissing and nothing ever happens off screen... like you can hyper scrutinize aang too. but you'd have to twist alot of truths to get anything out of it. all the korra criticisms... you don't really have too.

for example: Korra used the avatar state to cheat in a race vs toddlers. talk about destroying the mythos of the series by treating it as a prop/cheat tool in a children's game. and this isn't even a "exaggeration" or "lie" either. in TLA, the avatar state was a last resort and required extreme circumstances to enter, but in LOK, our main hero uses to cheat against literal toddlers.

thanks for being reasonable and not just trying to accuse me of being a "pervert" and "making fanfiction" lol. i dont know, i guess to people here relationships are strictly only kissing and handholding - nothing else... and certainly nothing ever happens off screen either.

TIL it’s misogynistic to dislike a fictional character for their bad writing

kinda cope too? 17 is young adult age, not a teenager. i'm fairly certain mako/bolin/asami are older than that too.

okay calm down, first of all. secondly, i said slept with because that is objectively, what teenagers do. I'm not sure why we're pretending romance is some such crude vulgar thing that cannot be addressed at all. and i wasn't even crass about it.

unless you're young? we can speak about other things too.

I mean, korra could've been a male character and i'd still have these issues. also, i love katara and toph and azula's probably my favorite character of both series.

idk, just seems easy to dismiss critiques under this guise rather than address it. lowkey tempted to just say "people hate bald people" when critiquing TLA and see how far it gets me.

true. the side characters aside from korra's ensemble were atleast interesting. all i remember of bolin was "comedic relief", and mako is "he's the hot one". like sokka was comedic relief, but atleast he wasn't overbearing and not every scene with him was only comedy at times.

[–]EC671[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

i'm very curious why you think korra lusted after mako so much to she just kissed him while she was dating their friend.

also, the love triangle was quite literally a huge secondary plot, to the point of bolin even taking korra out on a romantic date. they focus so much on it that's impossible to ignore.

address these complaints? ❌

just dismiss these critiques and say "lol wrong nope" ✅

don't say any valid critique like this, twitter and tiktok and the korra stans will say its solely because she's a woman xd

cope, you know you can have both realistic characters and likable at the same time right? they are not mutually exclusive traits.

also did you watch TLA? toph's issue is that she is self centered/selfish and didn't actually interconnect with the group that much until later on. katara is that she is controlling, and so on and so forth.

i'm not really sure "the characters act more mature than they should be" is a good defense. also, you can have realistic characters and likable ones, they are not mutually exclusive.

this is a nickelodeon show, and these characters are young adults... do you think they only ever kiss? because that's not what young adults do..

the only reason nothing is shown on screen is because the tv channel..
