You didn't have to make a new thread.

>>68167365
Asspull is literally the only explanation.

keep your cancer in one thread

no retard, they didnt want a lesbian ending specifically, they wanted a korrasami ending. their first intention wasnt to make it lesbian, asami was just the last viable (in their minds) option for a romance they thought was necessary

completely fucking retarded

"Korra's a dyke" threads

officially the new Frozen General

Why is everyone so buttmad over a lesbian ending?

I mean, seriously guys, it's not like this series is any good anyways

>>68167416
"Everything's going to lesbians" has started to overflow, and we're sick of it.

It's also the cementing blow to Korra's horrible writing.

>>68167416
People get sick of lesbians. Writers use them as a shield wall for criticism.

>>68167365
>yuri

Lesbians anon, we're not gooks.

>>68167416
Kind of implies 2 things

>Tomboys are dykes

>A strong female character can't end on their own without a relationship, dyke or otherwise

Literally, Korra despite it's mediocrity is the only show I can think of with a (relatively) strong female lead for kids that defies certain stereotypes and they made her a dyke.

>>68167365

Your asspull is worse than giant Korra and lion turtle combined.
Sure they would make 4 more new episodes just to develop your shitty character

>>68167365
Last minute "we don't care" moment by two hacks. If they established the pair early in the series, I'd accept it. It was a completely unneeded asspull at the end.

>>68167455
>People get sick of lesbians.

This is officially the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Thank you for my early Christmas present /co/

>>68167455
>>68167440
The cementing blow to Korra's horrible writing was Book 2.

I blame Book 3fags. A bunch of morons who got baited by a cliffhanger ending, mistaking that drama for good writing even though the Bei Fong plot is completely retarded

>>68167480
>This is officially the dumbest thing I have ever heard.
How so?

>>68167472
>and they made her a dyke.
I think the best thing anyone can do is cut off the ending. That's it. Just focus on Korra being able to move on and do Avatar things as a single, happy being.

>>68167365
if they'd dont that all bryke wouldve got is
"i can't believe they introduced a new character just to make korra a lesbian, LIBERAL LGBT PANDERING, FAN SERVICE!1!!!!1!" or "asami was already there, why introduce a new character" and "bryke confirmed shit writers"

Korra was closer to Asami than any other character. Also it's femme topping tomboy perfection.

>>68167495
The gift that keeps on giving.

Do you people actually think that this is true? This is a retarded fan theory by tumblr

>>68167519
Are you going to actually make any sort of argument on how is it the dumbest thing?

>>68167522
It's true solely by the virtue of the last 3 seconds of the finale.

>>68167365
>People being this mad over a lesbian couple

And this is why I stopped watching Korra after season 1. There's nothing but hackneyed writing and shit characters while the audience pretends that it's not complete shit.

I'd rather tell someone to watch moeshit anime than Legend of Korra.

>>68167472
>>68167440

Makora at that point is absurd
and makes no sense after 3 seasons of killing it completely.

And people who want Korra alone and miserable are ridiculous.

The authors gave Korra a happy ending, sure it's an ass-pull, but what's so bad about if it makes the fans happy and able to relate with Korra?

Furthermore they never went full homo but left it open to interpretation, getting away with what they could. They didn't try to be controversial for controversy's sake.

>>68167541

I think it's undeniable that young people watch Korra for the fantastic animation, not for the romance.

You recommending moe instead of Avatar makes me think you have that typical moeish /a/ otaku shit taste

>>68167545

Who said anything about being miserable. Her talk with Tenzin clearly showed she had matured and accepted her place as the Avatar. She was still young with the world at her feet.

Makorra is equally stupid to shoehorn in at the last second.

>They didn't try to be controversial for controversy's sake.
You mention it's an asspull, I argue its a calculated one.

>>68167365

Because at the end of the day, that pairing was the only one that kind of worked.

Mako was ruined by being a shit character in an unbelievably garbage forced love triangle in the first two seasons, and while he developed a decent character afterwards, he should remain forever alone as penance.

Who else is there? Bolin has his waifu. They could have left 3 out of the 4 main characters single at the end of the series, but that would have pissed of the legions of rabid shippers more than anything, so they went with yuri which had the extra benefit if being edgy and drumming up some much needed publicity for the show.

>>68167499
wow, that was they worst typing i've ever seen i meant "if they'd not done that all bryke wouldve got is

I was referring to the content that /co/ generally follows.

Either it was meticulously planned or it was an asspull.

Some post on Tublr said that the original screening had a different ending, I believe it.

They just wanted to satisfy the fans, there is nothing wrong about that. It was a just sweet ending, while at the same time leaving it ambiguous.

Also you forget that the possibility of revisiting this universe is very slim at this point, so throwing the fans a bone , makes sense considering Nickelodeons overall attitude.

Exactly.
It's the last few seconds of the finale that actually hints anything, everything else easily handwaved. The ending was tacked on.

Cause now you've changed your show's legacy and what it's gonna be known for by inserting and forcing something in there the last minute (of the finale).

Now Bryke and LOK won't be remembered for its falls, its heights, its plot holes, issues, its potential, world, plot, message or anything, it'll all boil down to "lesbians".

No one's gonna talk much just about the story or the villains, they're just gonna go back to previous seasons to examine Korra and Asami to find some "hint" some "foreshadowing" some dynamic or moment that built up to this and that fits and runs parallel to struggles that real life homosexuals and bisexuals go through when finding themselves, when really, there are none.

Asami only became friends and close to Korra cause she literally has/had nothing else to do as a character to fit the plot. She has no ambitions or missions of her own in the show that has its own plot but she's supposed to be a main character and part of team Avatar, so they make her a plot device to transport the team or have the powers or knowledge as plot demands to get around something, and they make her friends with Korra since she has no life outside of that but has to still be stuck around team Avatar, and it's been this way since season 2, even season 4 it's still the same thing.

>>68168567

It was still very open ended .

If you really didn't see the intentional clues they placed to make it as ambiguous as possible then you are blind.

Why is it so hard for you to judge a series not by it's ending. You can still hate the ending and like other parts of the series, for other people, like it me it ended on a high positive note similar to ATLA, so I still don't see it as a massive cop-out.

They changed the ending, had Korra and Asami walk hand in hand, turn, hold hands and look into each other's eyes, and Mike (of Bryke) has linked some tumblr post about some woman finding comfort in the finale cause she has a gay son, and some other article talking about the finale and Korrasami being real (I think). they knew exactly what they were doing anon, it's not ambiguous

>Why is it so hard for you to judge a series not by it's ending.

Cause the ending should be the fruition of everything that came before it and be payoff for having watched it for so long, people's stories should be ended, things wrapped up, blah blah blah, if the ending is shit, the whole show might as well be shit cause there's no satisfaction, there's no "it's all over and done" feeling to me, there's too many things left open or unanswered and things just brought up that are so retarded that you can't believe it, like Wu wanting all the states to be independent and be like the URN, that shit's not gonna work but it was forced in there with no real reasoning for it and we'll never get any expansion on it

anyone else kind of disappointed by the ending? I mean, I don't dislike it because it's a yuri ending. It's just that, why would they need to end it with the main character getting with someone? Especially since korrasami had next to no buildup. It just feels like forced fanservice to me. Why not end the series with a shot of all characters including bumi and stuff just sitting together having a good time? Why end with a ship? At least aang x katara was being built up throughout the entire series

>>68168896
the last shot of a movie/series/play is usually the most important thing as thats what it ends on so by showing korrasami as the ending theyre saying that even 2 broken people can find love together and the love between the 2 of them is the most important thing to them

>>68167704

>>68169340
it's not like that though is it, sometimes relationship do start out as friendships you absolute spack attack, just because they werent saying it every 5 minutes doesnt mean something wasnt there, even now i dont think theyre actually "in love" i think that was basically their idea of "ok this is happening we both understand our situation and what we want lets give it a go" kind of like a first date kind of situation. i dont know about you but on a first date I dont generally start screaming I LOVE YOU from the roof tops, it's funny how if it had been any male character your reaction would be completely different e.g. even if it was Wu or Bolin people would still think they were together. pull your head out of your ass and see the truth you cumstain.

7. Even Mako can tell that they're unusually close to each other. He asks "What's going on with you two?". They've long since been friends so it's clear that they're now acting like more than friends.

>>68169436

the only reason someone couldnt see the obvious subtext and connotation of the scene is is they were homophobic, prove me wrong

Protip: you cant

>>68169386
Korra's only other options were people that she felt weird about confiding in. Tenzin was making her feel bad, Mako was her ex, and Bolin is a chatterbox dork. This is not evidence of romantic interest.

>>68169408
Telling someone you'll be there for them is not evidence of romantic interest.

>>68169435
People blush when paid an earnest compliment, women especially. Having a normal emotional/physical response when someone you respect gives you a compliment is not evidence of romantic interest.

>>68169458
Asami has literally three friends. Korra is her only female friend, and probably the best friend she's ever had. Not wanting you/r friends to die is not evidence of romantic interest.

Do you have any more? I can keep going.

>>68169475

They do that literally ONCE in the LAST FEW SECONDS OF THE SERIES. While this is technically evidence, since it is literally tacked on in the closing shot it is circumstantial evidence at best.

>>68169494
Did you not watch the show? Half the cast argues like an old married couple. Does that mean the entire cast is going to be in one giant romantic interest orgy? No, it means it's evidence of nothing.

He was referring to the fact that they were upset with each other. This is not evidence of romantic interest, but it IS evidence that you're grasping at straws.

You obviously don't remember the show. He said that before they started arguing.

Just a reminder, the original cannon ending of this series was season 1 with Mako and Korra hugging

This shit got retconned faster than Star Wars

>>68169516

They were trying to hide the fact they were sending each other letters to save Mako.

Minutes later they're both at each others throats with Asami annoyed with Korra having disappeared for 3 years. Hardly a conversation that stems from a romantic relationship.

>>68167365

Taking the best friend on a road trip implies you're gay? There's not even any looking into each others eyes or any of the shit Korra/Asami did over Mako. It's not even NanoFate levels of 'they are gay, creators please just let them out of the closet'.

Still it was a nice season of not dealing with the rather cringy relationship drama I've come to associate with the series.

Wut? I'm not arguing about whether they're together or not. I'm saying that there was nothing to suggest that the story has been steering in this direction for any considerable amount of time. If you only watched the show up to season 2, would you honestly say Korra/Asami seemed plausible? If your answer is anything but "no," you're absolutely shitting me.

>>68169700
i would say it has since the start of season 3 if you watch it again, i rewatched it from the beginning after the finale and you can definitely tell if you pay attention

>>68169672
Their true target audience was blatantly perverts who liked lesbian fantasies on tumblr. they were the ones who talked about the show the most.

I don't particularly care that they hooked up if that is the case, but if they did I have a feeling that Korra and Asami's relationship would eventually come to an end due to very different lifestyles.

Asami has her corporate empire, and Korra has her Avatar duties. New enemies will crop up once more, Korra will have to go off to distant lands in addition to dealing with a ton of the new world politics that will crop up from the democratic Earth Empire. Asami on the other hand will become ever more involved in her company as technological advances are made, and after her father's redemption she'll have even more reason to remain the head of the company and carry on their family name. As a result they'll slowly grow apart due to conflicting duties and the lack of time for each other. In the end, they'll break it off but remain strong friends.

>>68169408
That's the scene that actually first stood out to be as being the slightest bit homo.

>>68169729

My point is that Asami/Korra is yet another example of the horribly inconsistent character development that's plagued this show from square one.

>>68168355

Why did mako never spam lighting?
Why did bolin after learning lava, not spam it on everything as his first move? Instead of reserving it.

Why did no one attempt to teach the avatar lighting or lava? Why did mako survive the thermo nuclear detonation at ground zero? Why does a nuke create a portal to spirit world?

I guess they even point it out in the clip show, not to try make sense of everything.

>>68169767
She became the head of the company way before her father's redemption, the man was in jail.
Besides (and I've always found it funny), Asami seems to be reminded of her company just when it serves to the plot. Also, she was always offering to go somewhere with Korra, who the fuck cares about the company.
They did spend 3 years apart and they even became closer than before.

>>68168828

We never find out what they do with kuv's forces, or her. Or how the transition from monarchy goes, or if the people actually want it. Season 5 could have been show casing the differences in URN, EK and FN ruling systems.

I feel it still continued to flip flop on the avatar issue. Going on with 'it's not needed, average benders fix their own problems' to needing the avatar to save the world.

It's not the lesbian couple, it's the total bad execution, if the pair is true.

I'll dare to say, the people who likes the ending is the one that 'had his fanfic ship come true' and doesn't care about anything more.

For me the episode was good but that last scene was totally unnecessary and forced. I thought the ending will be the panning to the sky while they both where talking. Then, another scene and I asked: Oh, there's more? Then, just that.

I'm not against the pair, just it came out of nowhere, like for the sake of "Look, lesbians" "Look, Korrasami". I know the show doesn't had the best character development but this?

Asami barely interacted with her, related to that setting. Also, they stablished both of them liked boys at first. What about letting us know they're bi with something subtle cause kids cartoon blah, blah, blah?

Also, I wanted some really special ending scene, due to that one being the ending of all the Avatar series... but no, we got shipwar fuel...

In all honesty, I didn't even see it as a yuri ending.

I thought what was important was that Korra had grown as a person enough that the girl that had started as her romantic rival was now someone she respected and loved as a friend.

I guess it'd be hot if they scissored, though.

>>68169683
It's true anon. It's an ending that can be interpreted as you want. But that's the point, you can. And also, the strong Korrasami vibe the authors purposely injected to that last and out of nowhere scene plus the bunch of shippers on internet are taking for grant that they're both dykes. It's unstoppable.

>>68170684

This.

I think they make a cute pair or whatever (visually, I am in love with both of their designs), but my favorite part is that the absolutely retarded love triangle in the beginning ended with the two girls being friends (with the potential to evolve into more, if you want to look at it that way--I do).

>>68167751
No, it's shit writing.

>>68169316

The show just wasn't meant for nick audiences anymore. It was stupid to greenlight it in the first place when it was clear early on that they wanted to age up the content to align with the original ATLA fanbase.

>>68170960

Nick is gonna eventually run out of audiences anyway. This was an opportunity to attract an old audience back and bring in a new one, they squandered it.

Live action dramas and spongebob won't last forever.

At least this confirms they won't make another sequel series, since artificial insemination isn't a thing in the Avatarverse

I agree 100%. The ultimate failure I think was on Nick for basically not knowing what to do with the series and then trying to hold a pillow over its face once the show went off the rails a bit

>>68171024

Thats what feeds into the argument in reunion, they talk about things they should have really talked about during the letters.

"Why were you gone for 3 years"
"I don't know"

If they were writing letters over the whole period surely some of Korras reservations should have come up.

Bryke knew how to stir up the pot for that Emmy.

They had the option to end the show as it was with little fanfare or they could have made sure they always get mentioned on a list of "Most Progressive Things To Ever Happen On Television" for the next 50 years.

They choose the bait.

>>68171034

Just look for Korra merchandise on google, there is fucktons of the stuff and none of it official.

Nick also shat the bed in international markets, Korra only aired like a year later and only like 2 seasons so far. Only 1 season has seen a european release on blu.

They couldn't have hurt the show more if they were trying. I honestly don't think they understand the world as it is today, they want it to be the 1980's and 90's where they can sell tons of cheap plastic toys to kids who have nothing else to play with.

With that argument anyone putting anything gay in anything ever is just reaching for 'the bait'. I know it's debated heavily whether Korra and Asami made sense as a couple but I personally think it makes sense, I'm usually a big naysayer for 'progression for the sake of progression' but I honestly don't believe they did it here.

>>68171116
Quite right. Pretty much a huge failure in understanding, which surprises me because Nick is owned by Viacom and other Viacom channels, Comedy Central comes to mind, has been pretty good about distributing and marketing their shows to coalesce with how people watch tv these days.

Do you think the series might have a future independently online or maybe even on a Netlfic, Hulu or Amazon market? Honestly, if they went full force with the whole "progressive" lesbian thing at their back and also just fully matured the show to appeal directly to the bulk of their audience, it could gain traction.

>>68167365
>their relationship wasn't like that.
Apparently, it was

Now I just want RS cast to find out in the next season of Regular Show that Eileen and rigby have been humping for some and she is pregnant

>>68171134

You have to admit social relevance tied into the ending. It's not nitpicking to know when someone picks the easy way out to shield their show from criticism.

Without Korrasami, I guarantee the complaints about the actual entirety of the finale would be more prevalent.

Now there's just an eternal shit storm about the last two minutes that will last for all time.

Just as keikaku'd.

>>68171116
>they want it to be the 1980's and 90's where they can sell tons of cheap plastic toys to kids who have nothing else to play with

This. Good lord do a lot of cartoon makers need to jump on freemium and micro transaction content somehow. Kids get on the electronic teat younger and younger nowadays--action figures and the like only command the attention of children who are between "old enough to not choke/injure" and "just a little too young to fuck around with a tablet"

I've worked in daycare since 2005 and have watched this d/evolution firsthand. I'm pretty sure most of the kids I work with are more proficient in tablet shit than I am.

>Step 1 take a established show with a large fanbase and make a sequel

>>68171195

I would hope so, it all depends how nick feels about it. If they can cut their losses with a sale of the rights they should do it. I don't see the Avatar universe ever returning to a format that could sell merchandise to kiddies.

I could certainly see it becoming an event series if treated with the care that other channels have to other serialised shows. It could also make big money if the merchandise was actually things teenagers and adults wanted to buy.

Again, it would need an improved budget and the full backing of the network but when you have networks dropping $90m on new franchises that tank there must be money out there somewhere.

>>68167365

Fangirls are a really insane demographic of a show. They don't consume content like normal people do, they only watch stuff for romance and whether or not a character is into another character.

The world is changing and these networks need to accept that or die. They've stacked their channels so badly and bet their farm on live action shows and repeats that must be cheap as dirt. Eventually content will run out or kids will get bored.

Why these channels haven't cottened onto the fact that adults are recepted to animated tv shows now is beyond me. The people who grew up with south park and ATLA are still there and they want more than cheap comedy shows.

So I've been here for the past few days just reading Korra threads but speaking as a casual fan. Korrasami caught me off guard but I'm seeing videos dated 4 months ago where Korrasami is a thing. How long have people known about or suspected Korrasami being a thing?

>>68171497
Ever since season 1 I've seen people ''shipping'' it. I think it was mostly due to Korra's comments about Asami's appearance.

>>68171497
It started around book 3 I guess

>>68169435
She didn't blush because she likes Asami you blind fool!

She cut her hair with a freaking knife so nobody would recognize her, and Asami's compliment reminded her of that, she blushed not because "aw she rike me" but because "aw shit, my hair".

It was literally embarrassment not romantic blushing.

Korrasami doesn't exist, there's literally no build up at all.

>>68171476
The series was doomed the minute they made a female character a protagonist.

Women are disgusting whores, and trying to shovel this women empowerment to children is foul and wrong.

>>68171497
People ship fucking anything. I remember back in season 1 people were shipping the two probably simply because they were both hot.

>>68171473

That's why the best ones don't. They know to end on something representative of the whole show, like Breaking Bad.

I even rewatched the important episode of the season, in order to find some evidence about tthat, because I nether supposed that kind of ending, and nothing. Same friendly reaction between korra and mako ou asami.
Only interesting thing is when she blushed; But... Many people blush with a compliment.

>>68171497
Seasons 1-2 it was just a joke ship. More people started to ship it from season 3 onwards, nobody expected it to become more than a crackship though.

How long until people on tumblr start to complain that Korrasami is a male-dominated ship meant for the consumption of hot, lesbian porn?

I'd say a month.

>>68171603
Korrasami isn't even a big deal for me. There were so many other things that disappointed me about season 4 (which I thought started off really great). Unfortunately, the lesbians/bisexuals are all anybody is going to talk about which was probably intended.

>>68167472
Or rather, she swings both ways. Y'know, since she had that on-again off-again thing with Mako since season one.

>>68171619
>The series flopped and had to be put on life support on Nick's website
a wild season 3 appears
nick uses put online
it doesnt effect the wild season 3
season 3 uses get more views
it's super effective


in essence season 3 got more views online than offline cause people werent just watching it on some pirate site instead of actually watching it in the time slot so it got more views overall therefore making the series more successful

Since when wanting two hot chicks to make out is being a pervert? Only those with a sensitive and tranquil soul and extraoridinary perception are able to appreciate women coupled in sapphic embraces.

Korra and Bolin is legitimately better than Korrasami if he didn't have Opal. Literally all the pairings are between the wrong people, hence the shit chemistry.

>>68171605
There is nothing pervy about jonesing for pure lesbo love.

I don't think it flopped. I think they just did the best they could with what they had (the first half of book 2 doesn't count though) and if it flopped it was on Nick alone with their 13 eps restriction, no advertising, moving online

I still say best ending would have been all four of them going on that vacation, but what do I know?

I don't do shipping and I don't care about couples. I think the show should've ended that it doesn't matter who's dating who or whatever. They could have even added the Korrasami if they wanted to.

Just have the whole thing that whats important is that they're friends doing friend things, but whatever.

Once again, what do I know?

No, I completely agree with you, and in the past threads since the finale, a lot of people have the same sediment.

I just don't think an entire series should have ended on something that wasn't relevant to the whole series.

It should have been Team Avatar. Korra and Asami could have still been holding hands on the way to the portal. Everyone would literally have been happy instead of just Korrasami shippers.

>>68171798
...or it's that both she and Lust are based on the same classic Femme Fetale aesthetics and it's therefore logical that they would have similar features.

Oh man, I remember Korrasami being my first crack ship. I was like ''damn these two hot girls would have such hot sex''

>>68169435
She didn't blush because she likes Asami you blind fool!

She cut her hair with a freaking knife so nobody would recognize her, and Asami's compliment reminded her of that, she blushed not because "aw she rike me" but because "aw shit, my hair".

It was literally embarrassment not romantic blushing.

Korrasami doesn't exist, there's literally no build up at all.

>>68171768
whats that supposed to even mean, in the other one all the characters are stood in the same position professing their love, clear hint as to korrasami, yours are just showing bro moments

>>68171866
Yeah, pale skin, dark clothing and red lipstick is hardly an original character design.

Wow, you people really don't form bonds in real life. Korra gets a female "bestie" and you all pull the wheel to gay.

You'll see what you want. You're ruined by innuendo.

This is precisely why you cishet heteroes are ruining the world with your fap fodder relationships. Lesbians are okay, but two dudes bonding over their love is beyond the line. Mako and Bolin are clearly gay. Wuko for life!!

He said he is flattered that people thought he ripped off Lust's design

Why would he be flattered by that, that makes no fucking sense

there doesnt need to be romantic set up, have you never had 2 friends that were just friends for a long LONG time with no significant feeling then you find out they've started dating? same thing
you wouldnt go to them yelling, "BUT THERES BEEN NO SET UP, NO CONTEXT YOU CANT BE TOGETHER YOU HAVE TO LEAVE HINTS"

I always thought so, too!

This isn't real life you retard. This is fiction we speak of, where we follow the characters and their lifes, you don't go around watching your friend's day to day life unless you're a creep.

>>68172157
There's a difference, you don't get the see your friend's life outside your interactions with them to see the "hints" in real life, in a tv show YOU DO.

There's no Korrasami, sorry.

I've seen a shitload of posts and screencaps that are all very valid reasons for having a problem with the ending. There is a masterpost screencap type thing flowing around that is great, one explaining why Korrasami is hamfisted, and a few others that are sensible and well formed arguments.

The issue is, none of that matters. Nothing you say or do on here matters. Bryke is going to check tumblr, and probably reddit. Both of those websites are exploding with positivity, and are treating anyone with a different opinion as being 'gay bashers' or 'lol sore losers', boiling everything down to shipping and/or disliking gay relationships. I'd argue that the positivity they're feeling about the ending has way too much to do with shipping, and way too little to do with praising cohesive narratives, but I don't think that matters when they're as vocal as they are.

Someone linked to the /r/lastairbender subreddit yesterday in one of the Korra threads, and I have never seen a place so absolutely dedicated to the same fucking opinion. If you check the 'downvoted' section almost all of the posts there have to do with not enjoying the ending, or they did yesterday, not it might be memes or some shit but you get the point.

I'm not going to come in here and lie about how I feel about the ending. I fucking hated it. I still hate it, and i'm disgusted by the notion that these two people are receiving universal praise for such mediocre storytelling. But at the end of the day, the only way your posts will be seen is by some redditor screencapping this and posting it to one of their threads laughing about 'butthurt'. Quality lost, because queer representation is evidently more important. I'm not alright with that, I don't think anyone should be, but it is what it is.

>>68172157

No, I haven't, and one of my best friends is gay, and I went to school with a lot of gay people as a result.

It was just a poorly done romance, plain and simple.

Why the fuck does any of that matter? Bryke will never get another Avatar show. They'll probably never get another show on Nick, period.

We know nothing will change and that all this discussion will never amount to anything. But it makes us feel better, and provides a modicum of entertainment.

So do us all a favor and shut the fuck up, asshole.

>>68172219

I actually did see people complaining about the ending in the specific Korrasami discussion. They had like 50 upvotes, but at least they weren't being silenced into oblivion like usual.

I was part of that masterpost screencap. I think I'll put something cohesive together with no offensive language and see what happens. Worst thing happens I get downvoted on a site I never go to anyway.

I just want Bryke to have the smallest fathoming that people didn't like it for actually good reasons.

Toph and Katara should have ended up together based on Brykes retarded logic. The Ba sing se episode had more build up than 4 seasons of Korra

>>68171837

Exactly, and that was blushing because of the compliment, Korra blushed because Asami's compliment reminded her she cut her hair with freaking knife so nobody would recognize her.
