Did you not like the show, or did you not like her, /co/?

Watching Korra is like finally getting the girl of your dreams to go out with you,only to find out she's not what you hoped she would be

>>88383882
Thank you for making me realize that's how I felt about Korra.

>>88383782
Awful show made her awful. So, there.

>>88383882
Fucking this

>>88383782
outside of being hot I dont think korra has any redeeming factors

>>88385013
Korra the show has an amazing soundtrack, pretty good fight scenes, and good animation outside of Pierrot episodes.

>>88383782
Korra was a victim to terrible writing direction.

1. Good idea: showing social conflict between benders & non-benders. Bad idea: making the ringleader a closeted bender who is doing it all out of spite of father who was a nemesis of Aang.
2. Good idea: exploration of the spirit world. Bad idea: Evil avatar.
3. Good idea: having a team of extremists trying to end the avatar. Bad idea: randomly giving a bunch of people airbending & excusing it for spirit shit
4. Good idea: crippling the avatar. Bad idea: final boss is bipedal mecha taller than mountains. What?

>>88383882
Never felt that feel, but I'll trust you on this one.

>>88385372
the fight scenes were pretty hit and miss
but pretty much everything else like korra being the main character and the terrible stories pretty much overshadowed anything god
imo

This. I kind of want to take her out of her own show and put her in a better one with a better cast, and not even bother with a "Team Avatar" because honestly, she's at her best when those worthless twats aren't present.

>>88385399
Yeah. Pretty much.

Plus, they clearly had no direction for the character after the first season. Her arc is more or less over once she learns to airbend and she mostly spends the next three seasons as a supporting protagonist.

Still like her, though.

>>88383782
hi E;R.

>>88385399
Good idea: Make the opposing force have a vendetta against benders as they are genetically superior in basically every way
Bad idea: Undercut their motivation entirely by adjusting the setting so that non-benders and benders are basically on equal grounds. Major non-bender characters are geniuses and billionaires, bender characters are getting fucked out of their money and forced to work double just to make ends meet.

>>88385372
>pretty good fight scenes
name them

>>88385416
Team Avatar worked with A:TLA because the gaang was still fairly young. They depended upon one-another for survival. Team Avatar in Korra was teenagers/young adults. Most of the time the characters weren't cohabiting. The relationships just weren't as deep.

>>88385543
Book 3 finale. Shit, no wonder why Korra was crippled after how much she fell.

>>88385416
this is a good point, without a forced team avatar it could've been much better.

the later seasons should've gone with something else.

>>88385416
And all those twats are at their best when she's on another continent.

Korra's no better than anyone else in the show, except Suyin.

>>88385543
Most of book 3.
Some of book 4.
A couple in book 1.

>>88385471
Korra never really ventured into greater discrepancies between benders & non-benders. Benders should have greater employment opportunities & would often be chosen above more qualified candidates solely because of their natural ability. Guess it was too affirmative-action.

>>88383782
Shipping ruined the franchise. Both finales ended with budding romances rather than addressing massive changes & work to be done. It shows that Bryke was pandering to the horny shipper crowd instead of cultivating their lure.

>>88383782
The former more than the latter

At least she was hot

I'll go with both.
First Korra was a total disappointment, so weak almost all of her fights end with Korra in the ground or unconscious. Does she ever won a fight without the help of "team avatar"?. I hoped that she would redeem herself later on the show but no.
The show itself had it's ups and downs, for example cool new " bender powers" that Korra never learn and were used only a few times. And don't make me talk about the dark avatar shit...

Wait, what?

Bolin was fucking retarded. As in mentally handicapped.

He'd get tricked by the villain into becoming their stooge, promise it'd never happen again, then have it happen again next season.

By season 4 he's goose-stepping around in an SS uniform.

>>88385983
They were pretty good. A lot of the adult characters were way more interesting than the kids.

TIME FOR TITTIES

>>88386051
Mako and Bolin were okay in small doses. Their main problem was that they felt kind of directionless. Asami was useless after the first season though.

It was neither as bad as /co/ makes it out to be or as good as /co/ sometimes says it was.
/co/ is at least partially at fault for basing their expectations off of nearly a fucking year of fan art and masturbation and waifuing well before the show even started and we had any real information as well as overhyping the shit out of it on the basis that the guys who made Avatar did something good once so they were 100% guaranteed to make something good again even though that's never been how anything works ever.

>>88383882
goddammit, even though I liked the show I always felt like something was off, but I couldn't put into words how I felt, so I brushed it off... this is perfect

FPBP

>>88386103
I agree. I feel like a lot of the problems with them stem from the fact that they originally planned for there to be one season, and they tried to shoehorn them into the other three, which didn't always work so well. It's really apparent that Bryke never had any idea of what to do with Asami past bland love interest.

Funny enough, that could also describe...

>>88383782
I thought it was hit and miss. The second halves of seasons 2 and 4 were AWFUL, and devalued the setting itself. I thought Korra as a character was okay, but each season was two bottled to give a fair sense of development or investment.

Did anybody see that AMA on reddit by Michael Dante Dimartino?

https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/55p5g1/i_am_michael_dante_dimartino_authorillustrator_of/?sort=qa

>>88386426
what 2011 upscale?

>>88386426
if you're talking about the 720p version of the show that's available on TPB it really doesn't look better

>>88386443
It should be on pirate bay. I don't have the link because I downloaded it 4 years ago

>>88386551
Oh, that version? no, it doesn't really look better. the "good" episodes of this 1080p upscale(the ones that had the least amount of issues in the DVDs) look much better.

>>88386541
Better than the dvd versions at least.

>>88383782
I really liked Season 3.

And parts of season 1.

The rest of the show can go fuck itself.

But for real, Change is just a bit shy of Book 2: Earth tier. Lackluster Final fight and 2 meh episodes shunt it closer to Fire, but when it works, it WORKS.

>>88383782
>>88386426
It doesn't look any worse either. My post was mostly for people who had already downloaded that version. No need to download the same basic thing.

>>88386587
Yeah. Both of these versions are preferable to the DVDs. The 1080p one is better in terms of visual quality though.

>>88386638
In the case of the "bad" episodes from the DVD, perhaps. But the "good" episodes look better than the 720p version

>>88383782
I hate the show in its entirety now because of the shitty 4th season

>>88383782

Both. The show was awful and Korra was an unlikable piece of shit.

Don't get me wrong, though. I would have hatefucked the shit out of her.

LOVED the setting. Even liked Korra a tiny bit. Thought she had some room to grow. But like...nothing ever happened with those things

>>88383782
The show in general was alright. Only season 2 was notably weak.

>>88385698
Pretty much this, but heres the thing, having two people in a relationship isnt bad, the problem was the shit they did in korra

>>88386731
Season 4 was also pretty bad, and the show in general had a big problem with invalidating it's own villains and worldbuilding constantly. Season 3 was really the only one that really managed to avoid this. Set up a corrupt government and have it be corrupt and bad. Set up Extremist anarchist villains and have them stay Extremist anarchist villains.

Lol dyke shit for numale beta faggots

>>88386849
I like season 4, and I don't think 3 was notably better than the others.

Admittedly, the ending for season four was kind of fumbled.

>>88383782

I loved the show. I loved all four seasons. I loved Korra. I considered the whole thing a flawed gem.

>>88386903
It's possible that the ending just ruined it for me and if I went back and watched it again, I'd have different opinions. But holy FUCK that ending was bad. That mech is literally the worst possible way I can imagine to house a superweapon, and it showed that continuously during the fight. Like, literally balancing the laser on top of 2 fire nation tanks from ATLA would have been more effective.

Also the laser was pretty dumb, but that's a secondary complaint by the time the finale rolls around.

>>88386968
To borrow a phrase from tv tropes, I'm pretty sure the usage of the mech probably fell under "rule of cool" for the writers: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RuleOfCool

In other words, "It didn't exactly make sense, but it sure was awesome wasn't it?"

>>88386748
Relationships aren't intrinsically bad, but shipping fandoms are. Korra shouldn't have pursued any romantic relationship in the finale.

>>88386968
those tanks would've been able to be flipped though. Or damaged easier, or destroyed.

>>88387078

But it wasn't awesome. It was just fucking dumb.

>>88383882
>Watching Korra is like finally getting the girl of your dreams to go out with you,only to find out she's not what you hoped she would be

and then she turns out to be a lesbian

>>88387157
Or bi...

>>88387121
Well they thought it was awesome, obviously.

>>88387120
It literally would only have taken a single moderately skilled Earthbender to topple the bipedal mech, though. Just shift the earth under it's feet, which would be insanely simple to begin with given that something that size (made of heavy-ass PLATINUM) shouldn't be able to stop itself from sinking into the ground, let alone support its own weight.

>but they had a team of earthbenders keeping the mech from-

Then you take that earthbending team and use them to protect the tanks the gun is mounted on. Maybe use all that fucking metal you wasted building a giant robot to build three or four more guns mounted on tanks.

>>88387188
no shes pretty clearly a lesbo

>>88387237
>It literally would only have taken a single moderately skilled Earthbender to topple the bipedal mech, though
Which, as they showed(even with the smaller mechs all throughout the season) doesn't stop it. It can stand back up.

>>88386968
It's dumb because in season 3 Henry Rollins shows up and says "hey remember when this show was about martial arts and character growth and not shitty CGI and teenager drama?"

And then they tell him to shut up and we get more shitty CGI and teenager drama.

So long as everyone just stops and stares at it, you mean. Because there was never a single instance of them actually following up while those lumbering things slooooowly got back to their feet and struggling all the way on completely stable and flat ground.

>>88387397
there might be a "b" in lgbt, but lgbt people fucking hate bisexuals

>>88387411
>he wouldnt have said it if they were still into men

If she's into men AND women, then people would likely focus more on the women, as you are doing.

>plus its gives people a good reason for people who like to show to write off anyone who dislikes it becuase they are homophobic

>>88387445
They all hate each other. Lesbians hate gays for being misogynistic, gays hate lesbians because unlike straight women lesbians don't like gay men, both hate bi's for not sticking to a side, and all three, cept maybe bi, hate trans because all it does is confuse people. Are you still gay if you fuck or love a fem->male trans? Can male->fem trans be considered true women and when they stay lesbian are they not still men? The entire movement hates everyone not like them, including their own movement which is made out of people not like them.

>>88387540
Kung-fu magic doesn't apply here. Doubly so when platinum is explicitly stated, in-show, as being immune to kung-fu magic.

>>88387237
This is the least of its problems.

It's a threat that's fundamentally unable to participate in kung-fu wizard battles in a show where people tune in to see kung-fu wizard battles.

>>88387604
How do you know platinum in the real world is equivalent to platinum in Avatar world? It could be super light for all we know.

Of course, that leads to further autism triggering about something having the same name and not behaving the same yadda yadda.

You have two incredibly obvious ways to stop The Drill.
Either you earthbend a downward slope in front of it, and let it tunnel itself undergroud.
Or you wait til it gets up against the 1000' superwall, and you chop off say the top 100' and drop it like a meteor on top of it.

Bryke specified bisexual.

Doesn't matter, because she chose poorly; Asami is kind of shit.

>>88388029
to be fair we are talking about ty lee though
who is closer to 16

On of the great things that nobody seems to mention about The Legend of Korra is how Korra's gender is irrevelent. It wasn't like how Katara was always trying to prove she's a fantastic female waterbender. Korra was a girl, Korra is the avatar, & that's all. I cannot recall any sexist moments. Gender never was a talking point.

>>88388189
sure but she was still a terrible character
in fact if you add things about her trying to be a strong woman you could say that she is just shitting on empowerment considering she is kind of shit at her job

>>88388218
Nah she was cool.

>>88388234
sure but she wasnt very good at her job

>>88388036
"Diarrhea" is a poor word for it because Korra is not bad in a random, slapdash way. Characters are faced with problems that they might overcome by growing but never do so and are instead rewarded for wallowing in their own failure.

If AtLA was a show about growing up and being the change you want to see in the world, Korra is a show about staying a teenager and having everything handed to you on a silver platter.

>>88388091

Azula is perfection

Not all of them are. Some of the characters do end up growing.

Honestly that could apply to ATLA too to a degree.

I was hoping that Amon's removal would be more permanent & Korra would only be able to bend water, earth, & fire while in the Avatar state.

You obviously couldn't see the characterization behind Azula because you are too stupid to see she wasn't a psycho which explains why you like Ty Lee.

Careful when playing with fire. You might burn yourself.

>>88388426
Azula was a psycho bro
and no matter who you put the blame on she is a psycho and always will be

>>88388353

>Aang.

It was dumb in TLA when Aang suddenly got hadned Energybending powers out of fucking nowhere, and it was dumb in LoK when Korra got her bending powers back because she felt sad and had a cry about it.

The exact mechanics behind how they were given/returned their powerups doesn't matter.

>>88388415
Aang unintentionally ends up in spirit mode. The because of this he learns super important information that tells him exactly what he needs to do for the rest of the series.

>>88383782

I liked the porn.

>>88383782
Honestly, I felt bad for Korra. Her only talent was fighting, but the writers practically bent the plot over backwards just to keep her from winning anything major.

>Loses at probending because Tahno blatantly cheats
>Loses against Tarrlok because super bloodbending
>Loses her bending to Amon because ultra bloodbending
>Loses to Unalaq because DARK AVATAR
>Consistently disabled during fights with the Red Lotus
>Loses to Zaheer because chains
>Loses again to Zaheer because poison
>Loses to herself because PTSD
>Loses to Kuvira because more PTSD
>Mech explodes before she can actually beat Kuvira during the rematch

Maybe if there had been more episodes per season, they would've had time to give Korra more victories and let her actually be competent.

>>88388460
Pretty much every work of fiction is going to have contrivances and plot holes. As long as the good stuff outweighs the bad stuff that's what matters.

>>88388441
'
Where's your proof or are you pulling stuff out of your ass again?

>>88388523
the proof is in the show bro

>>88388495
I think its because they were trying to differentiate her from Aang.

Aang seemed to often succeed without a great deal of effort. Not always, but probably more often then he should have, considering his age and inexperience.

With Korra they decided to go the opposite direction, having her constantly struggle, perhaps to make her victories feel more earned.

>>88388460
At least the lion turtle doesn't seem like such a deus ex machina after the origins special.

>>88388475
and thats the same as korra just being given her powers?

>>88388540

The only thing the show proved was that Azula was putting up a facade so her dad could love her when she really is a lonely girl.

>>88388599

It's obvious.

>>88388620
that shes a psycho

>>88388624

That she's hurt. You cannot find any proof of anything related to her being a psychopath

>>88388588
Not exactly the same, obviously. But its not like they didn't give some explanation. Her chi was blocked, Aang unblocked it with his bending.

>>88383782
I liked her and the show but Nickelodeon was too busy promoting Spongebob to put effort into it.

>>88388644
except for everything she does
All you are doing is explaining why shes a psycho or who the blame of it falls on
at the end of the day shes still a psycho facade or not

>>88388653
lol, i don't think it had to do with nick, other than quality control for the writing staff

>>88386011
I still wanted to fuck Bolin imma be honest

>>88388646
But Aang is dead. He physically does not exist & without a body he shouldn't be able to bend.

>>88383782
I preferred Amon, Zaheer and Kovira to Ozai. They were more entertaining villains.

>>88388620
Is this supposed to give you a boner?

>>88388559
The start was good. Aang was a peacemaker who needed to be a fighter. Korra is a fighter who needs to be a peacemaker.

The problem is that while Aang learns to take responsibility and stand his ground, Korra never learns anything other than "punch harder".

Aang masters earthbending by learning to look at the world in a way that's alien to his Air Nomad upbringing. Korra never accepts the philosophy behind airbending and just gets a season finale powerup.

In AtLA, growth in the martial arts was a metaphor for growth as a character (apart from spirit bending, which came out of nowhere). In Korra, new techniques are doled out as power-ups.

>>88388644
fuck off scrapper

>>88388684
She was in spirit mode at the time right? So he could interact with her that way.

Exactly this.

FPBP.

>>88388697
>Aang was a peacemaker who needed to be a fighter.
But Aang never really had a problem fighting. He had ore of a problem with killing (which only really seemed to be a thing in the finale) and running away from responsibility.

Aang actually solves most of his problems with violence.

Also the whole "understanding the philosophy" thing was pretty inconsistent even in ATLA.

>>88388697
>The problem is that while Aang learns to take responsibility and stand his ground
Aang learns that he doesn't need to do anything he doesn't like and that he can just say fuck you to everything because he'll just get deus ex machina superpowers to solve all his problems without needing to compromise his own morals.
Fuck Aang.

>>88388719
it didnt seem like it
she was just kinda crying on a cliff
the whole thing just seemed so sudden
it was never really established he could even do something like that (spirit to physical form i mean)

>>88388719
Spirit mode sure is selective...

>>88388666

There is nothing psychotic about her. She is shown to want love and compassion but doesn't know how to get it. A person who is psycho would not care for those things. They are like heartless robots.

>>88388688

No.

>>88388700

I'm not Scrapper I just agree with his stance on Azula.

>>88388796
I'm not going to pretend I have all the answers. I'm not a writer for the show. The way it was presented though, worked well enough for me to accept it.

Now, if you want to talk about a resolution that didn't make sense, look at the end of season 2. Seriously, what the hell was that?

>>88388826
fine shes a sociopath then
which is exactly what you described
either way
shes a shit girl

>>88388848

You don't understand her and in your fear you call her a monster. You don't know what she is feeling inside the kind of torment over being alone while watching other people bend over backwards for your brother. You don't know what that does to a person. That is why you have such shit taste anon because you cannot connect with a real girl like Azula.

>>88388868
I didnt call her a mosnter you did
I called her a sociopath
and no I cant connect with a girl like azula because she is a huge cunt to everyone including her "friends"

>>88388881

Because no one taught her how to make friends. she isn't the good girl you idolize but that's okay because she is perfect in her own Azula way.

>>88388897
that doesnt make her not a sociopath
its just an excuse

>>88388903

It completely alleviates her from being one considering she is taking the steps to redeem herself.

>>88388913
>It completely alleviates her from being one
she still is one

>considering she is taking the steps to redeem herself.
I see you saying this about the comic but I've never actually seen the evidence

>>88388559
If that's the case, then they completely overdid the suffering angle and then completely ignored the earned victory angle. Most of her "victories" are just handed to her through deus ex machina after she's reached some esoteric suffering quota.

I think a lot of the problem was trying to establish the villains as a credible threat within the limited time frame. If Korra won too much, then the villains would seem anemic. But there's a fucking balancing point that they completely missed.

>>88388697
Korra did eventually learn diplomacy by the end of season 4. Hell, talking down Kuvira was probably her only real victory.

>In Korra, new techniques are doled out as power-ups.

Yet Korra never really gets power ups. She learns techniques and the avatar state and such, but she never actually gets stronger and none of her strength ever actually helps her win. If you were willing to, you could read the hollowness of her power as a driving force for her character arc and it almost seems poignant. The real problem is that it takes her FOUR FUCKING SEASONS of redoing that arc until they finally finish it in season 4.

>>88388937
>I think a lot of the problem was trying to establish the villains as a credible threat within the limited time frame. If Korra won too much, then the villains would seem anemic. But there's a fucking balancing point that they completely missed.

The first series was helped in this area by having more self contained episodes where Aang ould gain a victory of the week while the larger villains remain undefeated. Longer seasons could have given Korra this. Also, maybe giving Korra some tough head henchman to battle with and win midway through the season. This would give her a big victory, but the big villain remains.

> talking down Kuvira was probably her only real victory.

She had victories over the other villains too, even if not as direct.

>>88383782
yes

>>88388922
>she still is one

No proof of that. In fact she completely deserted her pursuit of the throne and wants her brother to be the greatest fire lord of all time.

>I see you saying this about the comic but I've never actually seen the evidence

Read the fucking comic.

>>88389198
>find my evidence for me

>>88389205

Yeah because you can't find any that's why.

>>88389205
Stop arguing with Scrapper. We all know he's retarded and it's comically east to prove him wrong, but he's literally a nutjob and he'll never admit he's wrong.

>>88389224
thats what I said
theres no proof of her not being a sociopath

>>88389233

There is none proving she is one.

>>88389258
just like there is none proving she isnt

>>88389262

Which thus makes any including allegations of her being a sociopath wrong.

>>88389281
and also makes any including allegations of her not being a sociopath wrong

>>88389283

So there is no proof of her being anything which is all I care about.

>>88389298
just proof of her being worst girl

>>88389306
She is worst girl, much like his waifu Seras is worst girl.

>>88389323

You piece of shit get the fuck out of here no one is talking to you.

>>88389338
If you're not willing to put your trip on, you clearly aren't man enough to defend your waifu. Therefore, your waifu a shit and you a shit.

>>88389338
see
>>88389298
that means there is no proof of her being good

Couldn't watch it because of her really. She was a complete retard who got angry all the time over stupid shit especially when she was receiving good advice.

Also she fell for the worst brother for no reason other than he was hot, he'd essentially told her to fuck off before that.

>>88389350

I'm not Scrapper but I will defend Seras because she is my one and only waifu and I'm not going to have some disgusting loser on the internet besmirch her name.

>>88389351

What the fuck does being good prove anyways? Being good only means being a fake person. Azula is as real as it gets.

>>88389392
If you aren't Scrapper, how did somebody figure out who your waifu was despite the fact you're anonymous and that your waifu is from a completely different series that was never mentioned?

>>88389432

Because I just happen to waifu Seras.

>>88389392
>Being good only means being a fake person.
being good means being a good person
which azula isnt

>>88389456
So you and Scrapper happen to have the same waifu?

Shouldn't you be fighting Scrapper over who gets her?

>>88385399
4. Bad Idea: not having Kuvira win in the end

>>88389484
wouldnt be surprised if it is scrapper and hes a schizo and actually believes he isnt him

scrapper has admitted that he was a psycho and was deathly afraid of his family finding out

>>88389473

Except reality has proven it's a contrived subject and humans generally look out for themselves. Azula is just as good as the rest of us.

>>88389484

Scrapper is dead. I have her now.

>>88389568

Scrapper has never said that.

>>88389583
yes he has
the fact that you are denying it exactly like scrapper would proves that you are scrapper

>>88389586

Scrapper would never say that. In fact I don't even think Scrapper exists. He has never been on this board and you are all making him into the boogeyman.

"Lets have a water bender civil war, but not really give it the treatment it deserves"

"You know what would be a great plot point: Amnesia!"

>>88387872

I didn't like the show. Korra was fine. It think the first season was really good until the bullshit revelation about Amons past.

>>88383782

Jaded loli? Angst boy? A lot of that doesn't sound very good the way you described it.

>>88395874
Nah, it's not about plot, it's just a matter of the writers saying one thing and showing another. They say that she's good at fighting, but they show that she can't fight her way out of a wet paper bag.

Both. I tried giving it a chance and the creators fucked worldbuilding and continuity between ATLA and Korra in the ear. And that was what I liked about Avatar so I was annoyed. Then Korra never stopped being a cunt, so I bailed.

>>88395966
Except she was always stronger from a lore and story perspective. She is a fighting prodigy who is also the avatar. And from season 2 onwards she is the strongest fighter on the planet bar none, but if they played to that strength nobody would be able to pose a threat to her, so instead they make her lose to every villain she goes up against.

>>88385543
Tarrlok-korra in season 1 was pretty good
Also tonraq before going dark avatar in season 2
Most of season 3 was awesome and pushed de border of never showing an actual death in the show to literally blasting the head of a character
Everything with kuvira pre Mecha in season 4 was perfect too

>>88396158
It is about plot though, if the plot wasn't structured around Korra having to eventually defeat the bad guy in a fight there would be no reason to build him up as a strong fighter, she could just roll over every opponent like she should have and suffer the consequences of that instead.

- loses to Kuvira
- clearly couldn't take out zaheer even in avatar state
- loses to any bloodbender

- loses to plenty of spirits during S02

1. if they are mary sue they won't face reality
2. you don't suddenly ignore the shitty character that she is just because in one moment reality gave her shit

The sole idea of the cannon was bad although kinda realistic. It could be introduced earlier and the lasts episodes be about kuvira's army marching on RC while building rails for the gun (wich also make realistic sense like the historical Paris gun or big Bertha)

Avatar with full control of Avatar state is the strongest being on the planet, no one not even Unalaq has that power.

And every loss you just stated is proof that the plot bent over backwards to make her lose, since every single one is weaker than her and she should beat most of them easily, but doesn't.

>>88396422
seriously. What's the appeal?

i'm being really honest here. What lesbian porn has that draws so many people to it? it's like you don't want girls to get a good dicking. Why?

>>88396444
>Avatar with full control of Avatar state is the strongest being on the planet
the avatar in full avatar state has been killed/defeated:
- by an army (wan)
- by a volcano (Roku)
- by a single person (Aang)
- by a guy that was avatar for 3 minutes, and another that was an airbender for two weeks (Korra)

>she should beat most of them easily
"because i say so"

>>88396568
Not super into lesbian shit myself, but it seems fairly obvious the appeal is that there's a woman, which is hot, but then there's another woman too, making it twice as hot.

>>88396594
but both womens aren't actually doing anything 'porny'. They are not getting dicked. So what's the appeal if you can't even close the deal with it?

>>88396568
We don't know why Wan died.

Roku died to poisoning and his old age.

Aang didn't "die" in a fight but from an ambush before utilizing the Avatar state.

And Korra lost because of plot.

She should beat most of them easily because she is significantly more powerful than any of the villains we see. This is shown multiple times throughout both shows that the avatar is stupidly powerful, and Korra is stated in show to be a martially focused avatar.

>>88396621
God why is Korra so fucking hot

>>88396630
This is why bisexual women are better then pure lesbians. There's still a possibility you can have sex with them, even if not at the moment.

>>88396641
>We don't know why Wan died
he was in a battlefield, saying he couldn't stop a war

>Roku died to poisoning and his old age
old people are badass in avatar, and 'due to poisoning' is another word for 'trying and failing to stop a volcano'

>Aang didn't "die" in a fight but from an ambush before utilizing the Avatar state
>before
kek

>Korra lost because of plot
"one character used an ability that defeated her" is not due to plot. It's due to that character being stronger. Also, did you say 'in avatar state' just to exclude the enormous number of fights that Korra lost?

>because she is significantly more powerful than any of the villains we see
power =/= ability to use it, and intelligence is also a thing. Batman can defeat superman.

>Korra is stated in show to be a martially focused avatar
and shown that they trained her wrong as a joke.

>>88396630
The fact that you're observing two women on eachother tricks the brain into thinking they're in your immediate presence. Therefore the brain thinks you're with two girls who are sexual with eachother, and therefore are sexual with you. Basically the brain thinks it's a threesome

>>88396733
anon, even for bisexual the fantasy is that they will both jump on your dick. In the end it's all about the dicking.

>>88396061
>- Toph: turbo slut, fucked the life of her daughters.

Sluts are hot. Besides, we don';t know how many guys she was actually with. It may have just been a few, and she just got unlucky with getting pregnant.

>>88396762
>therefore are sexual with you
quite the contrary. If they're sexual with each other and not with a dick, you can't self-insert. Also, if you wanted a threesome, why even get the lesbo stuff? why not draw straight up a threesome?

Bisexual, twat

>>88396749
We still don't know why he died there.

Roku died because he was breathing poisonus gas he couldn't fight. Yeah he "lost" and unwinnable battle big surprise. And he could actually have lived if he had left the island with the others.

Aang never fought Azula in the avatar state.

Not excluding anything, Korra is stronger than anyone but only lost because of plot. She is stated to have both ability and power.

Still just plot bending over backwards to make her lose.

>>88396795
>Sluts are hot
but TURBO sluts are not. She doesn't even know the names of the guys.
