It would have been alright if they showed them dating at least for a few episodes before the finale.

The way it was done made it seem rushed and led to speculation on how legit the relationship was developed.

Really seems like they wanted to fuck each other to get back at Mako.
>>
>>89003402
>It would have been alright if they showed them dating at least for a few episodes before the finale.
The finale is intended to be their first date
>>
>>89003402
Their main problem was telling instead of showing.

The fact they spent Korra's entire recovery time (which was what, like a year or two?) talking and growing closer is way more than how long it took for Korra and Mako or Asami and Mako to get together.

I kinda like how they kept it subtle and not the focus of the season given how there was enough going on, but you can easily argue they went too subtle.
>>
>>89003594
Subtle?
It was about as subtle as cleats to the nuts.
>>
>>89003623
Please, that's hindsight talking. Leading up to the finale not even the Korrasami shippers in threads thought it had a snowballs chance of happening
>>
>>89001930
Everyone is bisexual. Some people just have strong preferences.
>>
>>89003676
Is that your theory?
>>
>>89003662
It reeked of it from the very first episode of the season. Everything from Korra only ever talking to Asami, circumventing and sneaking any mail past where she's supposed to have been and only letting Asami know to how they interacted when they finally met up with the clod again and Hitler kicks her ass. They were playing to the shippers so hard and after Unalaq nobody had any right to expect a good bluff from the show.
>>
>>89003727
Perspective is probably a better word.

It just seems odd to me that sexuality is seen as something wholly unique in being so absolute when everything else about humans is a preference. You can have genetic factors that influence preferences, like how many bitterness taste receptors disinclining you to eat vegetables, but it is still a preference.
>>
>>89003662
>not even the Korrasami shippers
The shippers are the ones who see evidence when there is none. They see threads holding things together when there are none. Those people said it made the most sense for it to happen but it wouldn't because of the rating. And not because it would have come out of left field.

I think its kinda like what happened to Xena, Warrior Princess.

Nope.
>>
>>89002775
The Korra story is lazy bullshit writing. From the beginning where a child at 4 years old could magically bend three elements already to Aang being a dues ex machina and returning Kiera's powers to ret conning the shit out of how humans learned how to bend the elements.
>>
>>89003914
I have literally no problem with Korra having a thing for women and so Asami. She's gorgeous, rich, and her friend cause Korra dates literally every friend of hers. I swear if they have us more seasons she would have tried to date Jinora

My problem is that there was no build up to it. The fact that she ignored Mako and Bolin and everyone but messaged Asami makes no sense. I honestly think Korra is just a whore.

Why does Asami like her? I guess she likes to fuck after a tragedy.
>>
>>89003978
>to ret conning the shit out of how humans learned how to bend the elements.
I'd say that was more of a sloppily explained bit. Like, when you see Wan training you see the dragon behind him, and he's doing the moves just like Aang and Zuko did with the dragon and after that he's clearly better than any other human fire-users, but they failed to put enough emphasis on him learning the forms from animals to raise his abilities beyond crudely chucking elements he gains the power to wield about.
>>
>>89004080
>The fact that she ignored Mako and Bolin and everyone but messaged Asami makes no sense

Mako made sense but why ignore Bolin?

What did he do to her?

>Why does Asami like her?

She's the avatar.
>>
>>89004123
>but why ignore Bolin?
Eska was intercepting all of Bolin's mail out of her lingering affections and I'm bullshitting because I'm still bitter about that but it's not implausible that someone was intercepting the mail otherwise might have been a weeeeeeeeeeee bit suspicious that mail for Korra kept getting delivered to where she wasn't present
>>
>>89004101
Well I mean they clearly said that they were taught how to bend by the dragons, moon, bison, badger moles. They learned how to bend by studying the push and pull of the moon or watching the badger moles.

Instead they got them from the fucking turtle lion and could instantly punch ot fucking fire.

Not to mention the whole yin/yang between rava and vatu made no sense because when they separated rava slowly started getting weaker while vatu got stronger.

And after Harmonic Concergence the loser was supposed to be banished for ten thousand years, yet they are fighting before it.

I mean the whole spirit shit got worse. Even the designs looked like shit

Well what about Tenzin? Her parents? The kids? Katara? You can't tell me Asami meant more to her than anyone else
>>
>>89004240
Trouble there is the distinction between using an element and bending. Like throwing a fireball, anybody with the gift could to that, rocketboots on the other hand, that's bending. Throwing water at someone, any pleb can do, making octopus arms, that's proper bending.
But I'll say, they never do enough to make a distinction between just throwing a blob of element and artfully utilising it, so it's a totally fair gripe.

Also yes, spirit designs were shit.
>>
>>89002498
Not really, they never did anything on screen and it could have been easily interpreted differently had they not come out and said it.

Notice how they weren't BENDING though. They were, as the Aye-aye spirit said, "fire tossers".

After Wan learns from a dragon how to BEND, the hunter guy is awestruck.

>Not to mention the whole yin/yang between rava and vatu made no sense because when they separated rava slowly started getting weaker while vatu got stronger.

It's based on Equilibrium. Raava is naturally better for the world, but she cannot exist without Vaatu. Chaos is needed, but too much chaos is bad.

>And after Harmonic Concergence the loser was supposed to be banished for ten thousand years, yet they are fighting before it.

...did you just not pay attention? The loser slowly grows back inside the winner over 10,000 years so that they can try again next Harmonic Convergence

Disagree. While not all of the new spirit designs were good, there were plenty that were.

What makes people mad is the lesbians thing is a deus ex machina or whatever. Never hinted at (unless you wear yuri goggles), and in the ending shot of the series, the MC and the only other female decide to go off alone, holding hands and gazing into each others' eyes.

It's not the fact they're lesbians, it's the fact it wasn't even slightly hinted at, ever.

>>89001930
When the writers decided it would appeal to the virtue signalers and people who think they are being "progressive". Korra and Asami were just friends but apparently this show just can't have two mature young adults that are just friends. It's always gotta develop into this thing where they get romantically involved with each other and now it gets incorporated into the shows plot where it gets in the way of the shows actual dramatic and suspenseful moments.
>>
>>89004622
You mean Korra x Bolin shippers would go mental.

Also, it wouldn't have meant anything romantic because of what happened between them during the 1st season.

Well of course it would be the shippers, but them along with other people would believe it was alluding to something, I get that you can blush without it having any romantic subtext, but in media people see that shit and eat it up

They used even more screentime chucking Zutara fans a bone since this was blink and you'll miss it, the Zuko cave hug Katara and season 3 stuff with them was probably kicking Zutara fans some scraps and so was this.

The world did fine without Vaatu flying about. And so did the Spirit World.
Now if they had showed the Avatar State being stronger now that Vaatu is back and Raava is restored to her natural form's size, that would be one thing. But they don't.

Though if people can accept the people being able to toss fire and punch earth, when baby Avatar Korra uses three elements without training that raises earbrows.

>In the Avatar State Korra is a bit stronger than usual.
When it should be that she'd be as strong as Aang +1 back before the ending of Book 2. And if both spirits are needed for balance, then why did both of them do fine without the other? And why isn't there any positives only negatives to their reunion?

>Which is why there were tons of wars?
There's a war with the Earth Empire starting shit by doing expanding Empire things when it should be doing protecting and serving things. There's a war that the Earth Queen was preparing for that didn't exist that she wanted to start.

Blaming everything on a spirit when people are doing things is like people blaming the devil for their negative actions. Same with people blaming things on bending for what the bending user did.

Yeah but there's never been any hint that Korra or Asami were attracted to women in the first place and there was absolutely no build up to a relationship. They could have just had an episode or two were their relationship was even a minor focus but they didn't. So the whole thing just comes off is either forced or poorly thought out.
>>
>>89005117
In-universe, that Korra can't hold a steady relationship for shit. Maybe she was just bi-curious.

For us, it'd just confirm the suspicions about Bryke doing it to get Korra jerked off as a groundbreaking series, without actually taking any significant risks.
>>
>>89005400
>Yeah but there's never been any hint that Korra or Asami were attracted to women

Not mandatory, oh wait, forgot that this show isn't an anime
>>
>>89005354
Yeah and they broke up. Makko had a story arch with Korra with that whole love triangle thing. The relationship didn't just come out of now where. Asami and Korra never came across is close in the previous season and they don't take the time in the last season to develop any kind chemistry between them. The two sistuations aren't comparable.
>>
>>89005400
>Yeah but there's never been any hint that Korra or Asami were attracted to women in the first place

Did they need to? It happens like that for real bi people, they don't date same sex til they do. And that would have made it about lgbt issues this way it wasn't preachy or anything it was just there.

I mean it wasn't a well developed relationship but I have no problem with it. They can't write romance or love plots anyway so just showing them starting to date is good honestly. Keeps that crap out of the plot.
>>
>>89005424
>forgot that this show isn't an anime
So anime is the only piece of entertainment that requires a coherent plot then? I wouldn't know the last anime I watched was Psychopass around a year ago. I haven't even bothered to watch season two yet.

>that Korra can't hold a steady relationship
And neither can Mako as he dated her and Asami, and neither can Asami as she dated Mako and Korra. Bolin too for apparently Eska and Ginger count for some people. Now he has Opal who exists only to be his girlfriend.

I'm bisexual and no it doesn't happen that way. At least not for me. It was a very confusing and stressful period when I first developed feelings for another man. I was incredibly afraid of the idea that I'd never be attracted to a woman again. Also I never hinted that I had a problem with them being lesbians. I just don't think it was very well done. Like I said they needed to have interacted with each other a lot more for the situation to seem believable . Especially if they've never demonstrated attraction to the same sex before.

Not that anon, but if you realised there was a possibility before the reveal, you did so precisely because you're a homophobe.

"Girlfriend" is more than often used by women among themselves to refer to another female friend.

No one knows. It literally had no build up and suddenly they're gay for each other...AFTER mako's speech to korra a few minutes earlier.
>>
>>89001930

>>
>>89005608
It's probably because we realize how stupid the scenario is when you actually experience in real life. I mean before I realized that I had feelings for this guy I was obsessed with being close to him. I wanted to hang out with him all the time. Korra and Asami never have that kind of relationship with each other even one sided.
>>
>>89005667
That was specifically about the claim about them not having a close relationship you poof
>>
>>89005667
>>89005549

It's a tease if anything. Like how June talked about Zuko and Katara back in ATLA when they sought her out.

If we read it as Asami just being someone Korra acknowledges as being around and taking up space in the physical world, then everything up until that car ride means Korra never considered Asami a friend...despite everything up until then.
>>
>>89005549
You wouldn't have to have a girl friend to know when two people are close. They don't seem like close friends before or after the relationship drama with Makko. In the last Airbender you could tell that Team Avatar was a tight group by the end. Korra's teams dynamic was always a little off in my opinion. I'd have an easier time shipping Toph and Katara.
>>
>>89005519
I hate Opal so much. Y'know they could have done some nice rebuilding of his relationship with Eska, they take a few steps back, take it slower, see what they've done wrong by each other and let the lingering feelings bear fruit again in a healthier way.
But that would require actual character development of the Twins instead of just using them as window-dressing for when the North needs representing.

1. 4chan has morphed into buttmad haters who shit on lesbians.
2. It was absolute shit writing and the haters are 100% correct.

ATLA and Korra were both really, really bad at developing relationships. They just didn't know how to write lovers or even attraction, and the couples they chose were hamfisted and weak.

Korra had more chemistry with just about everyone else who isn't named Mako. Hell, I'd expect her to scissor Kuvira before Asami. They barely supported it before the finale and patted themselves on the back for being "bold" and "daring".

It's more or less a reverse Hibike! Euphonium.
>>
>>89005714
>Korra and Asami never have that kind of relationship with each other even one sided.
Asami had that, as she literally had no reason for going with them in Book 3 (like Mako and Bolin didn't until they remembered they have family.) Also since Asami's plot ended up being Mako and Bolin's time she again had no reason for being around but she did. Asami sought out time with Korra.

It was one sided on Asami's interactions. And with how the story progressed, it just seemed like they just had her there because she was in season 1. Rather than give her useless material to work with like the brothers, they just had her hang out.
>>
>>89005823
I barely remember them spending time together. Honestly, it never made sense to me why she'd write letters to her instead of her other friends.

Because you've clearly forgotten the third season, in the third season the group spends the majority of it split, Bolin and Mako doing their thing, and Korra and Asami doing theirs

So you got Korra and Asami doing the earth queen's dirty work while they try to find airbenders in Ba Sing Se, they get captured by the Earth Kingdom army and then get stranded in the desert, and by the end of the season Asami is the one nursing Korra and telling her she would always be there for her

At that point the only other person I can think of that Korra could confine with would be Tenzin

>Honestly, it never made sense to me why she'd write letters to her instead of her other friends.

People can find it easier to open up to strangers than their families and friends. Like people talking to a therapist. Or how Toph explained her situation to Iroh back in AtLA. Or how Aang was talking about stuff to the Guru. Or how Zuko spilled his heart out to that frog when trying to gather courage.

Anon, Eska was legit psycho and Bolin's personality of being a giant earthbending teddy bear with a bleeding heart would never be able to stand up to her in any appreciable fashion.

Oh yeah that stuff with the Blimp right? I completely forgot about it. I watched season 4 about 6 months after I finished season 3. It's a little better then I thought then. Still pretty forced but at least they had one would episode right. Aang and Katara relationship was way better done. There was more then one episode devoted to it and you could really feel the dynamic between them change is the series went on. Especially after Aang was injured by Azula.

That actually makes sense thanks anon.

They couldn't get the higher ups to ok the lesbian stuff until the show had already been banished to online streaming. It wasn't a "ratings push" because ratings couldn't save them anymore. They were already holding the black dot, and nickelodeon was basically just distributing the rest as a courtesy

Eh, compared to her father she turned out alright.

>tfw you'll never get to be a famous athlete/movie star/high ranking military officer/innovative prodigy martial artist, married to the qt daugther of an influential politician, with exes ranging from movie star to princess to human force of nature, also you have not one but two genius billionaire friends

I want Bolin fags to find another hobby.

Or eventually die of old age right away.

That's why it's called character development, Anon, because they change from easy to define broad stereotypes to something with a bit more nuance and depth.

Goddamnit Super-Satan.

Honestly I'd have assumed the antics in Season 1 and 2 would have all but destroyed the chances of Korra and Asami considering themselves friends, never mind lovers.

But I guess they're way more magnanimous than I'd have been,
>>
>>89005255
>I still she fools argue in threads like these that Korra should have gotten together with Bolin instead

at least Bolin wouldn't have treated her like shit

Nah. They teamed up to double cuck Mako.
>>
>>89006666

Yep, seeing Asami like this gives a questionable doubt to if she really liked Korra as opposed to wanting to turn her out to spite Mako.
>>
>>89003972
Man, Korra is a piece of shit and a terrible friend if she only wrotte back to Asami and the brothers should totally ditch her.

You don't deserve your husubando.
or waifu.
No judgement here. Except that you're not worthy.

Season 3

>>89002775
if a person looked at Korra's design and not thought lesbian they'd be lying
>>
>>89006442
Bolin was the only member of the team who wasn't shit though. Korra was the queen of fuckups, Mako was married to the job and Asami was only as valuable as the transportation she brought along.
>>
>>89007184

but they gave her huge tits.

that cancels out the lesbian tomboy vibe.
>>
>>89007193
Honestly. This.
Guy is a fucking walking volcano and quite a good strong bender (he did alone what two experienced masters couln't). Kinda wish they did more with lavabending.

An adequate reading of the situation.
If I were to pinpoint the exact moment that plan hatched, it'd be here.

On the other hand it would be very easy to redcon it so that Asami was gay to begin with. She tried to get with the same asshole that treated her like shit twice. Yet the show insists that she's an emancipated, tough sort of woman.
There's a massive disconnect there that I can only explain with her mistaking the desperate need to fit in and being "normal" with being in love with Mako.

But that'd be too smart a move to pull on Bryke's part.
>>
>>89002775

She wasn't a lesbian till the last 30 seconds of the series
>>
>>89007589
We skipped like 3 years though.
They could totally insert a story titled: "How Korra went gay!" in there somewhere.
>>
>>89007676
Why bother when basically every other character is more interesting?
3 years of Varrick and his wacky hijinks and inventions.
3 years of Tonroq, Zuko and Lin faffing about having adventures
3 years of airbenders slowly turning into Arsenal Tengu
Actually scratch that last one, that would mean Kai and Kai a shit.
