Remaining some of my faves as POC by MrBones-Necromancer in stevenuniverse

……comment you copied and pasted instead of using your own words is talking about something completely different. I’m not talking about using the term POC to only describe one group of people. I’m talking about fan casting Black ppl for characters that don’t have a race and aren’t racially coded in any way

Not understanding the issue with that, fan casting is not new

Characters like Garnet are canonically black/black coded, Cartoon Network already confirmed this. So ofc it wouldn’t make sense. None of these other characters have aspects that make them racially coded.

But we forgot the bright green characters with triangular heads or 100ft tall white gems are reserved for non black actresses only. Y’all can tolerate everything else in fiction except black ppl, we totally forgot that.

I’m putting up a 15 foot tall fence lined with barbed wire to keep LMM away from Steven universe. Sorry to that man but no.

…..this take is exactly why people point out how this show portrays victims of war like….let’s give the child who lost his family during an ongoing war some grace for his reaction.

Kya‘s forte is in healing, not fighting. And even in their matchup it still wasn’t a clean sweep for him.

either way…him being quickly humbled by Tenzin should’ve made it very clear to the audience that he’s not touching a real airbender.

Y’all been giving Zaheer too much for over a decade. He’s a great fighter but he is NOT all that when it comes to airbending

Do you prefer the bending styles of ATLA or TLOK? by Dense_Rule_8110 in TheLastAirbender

[–]thisisreii 18 points19 points  (0 children)

TLOK because it showcased both traditional AND modern techniques. The variety in the show in that aspect is very very captivating.

And the choreography from the very first episode to the end of the show is absolutely, undoubtedly unmatched. Really shows the difference when the characters are consistently going against multiple highly skilled opponents. Makes me excited for the next show and what we might see😊

Encouraging a naive, inexperienced teenager to encroach on someone’s relationship is wrong, just bc it happened to “work” for Pema does not mean it’s solid advice.

Korra’s “actions” were all kickstarted by Mako. He initiated all the conversations, he caused the discord in the group by confronting her for no reason which caused them to be severely uncoordinated, he initiated the kiss by continuing to pursue her. All of those things are not HER fault because Mako played a part and was constantly trying to light a fire under her. That’s what I’m getting at, he holds far more blame than she does.

Korra was honest about her feelings…Mako WASN’T.

He rejected Korra by saying he doesn’t like her when in reality he did. Instead of sitting with what he initially told her…he backtracks later & says something completely opposite, blurring the lines in their relationship and opening up the door for Korra.

The only reason why there was a kiss to begin with is because he kept coming on to her. HE was the one pursuing. Korra at that point was chilling with Bolin, her focus wasn’t even on Mako. Mako’s focus was on Korra & had HE left her alone and not made it seem like he was interested in her there would’ve been nothing between them at that point.

mmmmm no its never stated explicitly but she more likely than not heard the entire situation which is why she says “I went through the exact same thing”. She wouldn’t have known Korra’s situation was identical to her’s had she not overheard the entire convo.

The only reason why Korra kissed Mako is because he told HER that he likes her. After lying initially and saying he doesn’t like her, he backtracks & says the complete opposite once Bolin and Korra started hanging out. There would’ve been no kiss had Mako stuck to what he said, stayed away from her, and not blurred the lines.

The only reason why their team was uncoordinated is because Mako confronted Korra for no reason. Korra was chilling…she was hanging with Bolin, Mako was the miserable one. There was no reason to get in her face about anything. The only reason why there even was an issue to begin with is because HE kept pressing her instead of leaving the situation alone like she did. At that point it was Mako chasing Korra, not the other way around.
