>cheap spinoff comic of cheap spinoff show has gay characters
if i didnt give a shit about korra when it was a poorly animated and poorly written show what makes you think i will care about it as a crappy fanfic comic made by an audience of mega autists?

People wouldn't be so assmad about Korra if they'd had the sense to drop it after the dismal second season. Really you can only blame yourselves.

I don't see what's so funny, they'll just end up celebrating it and pumping out more of it

>>94220866
If I may be so bold as to ask, is this a big deal because it's actually good or because it's just...gay?

Cause it seems to me that anything LGBT related is praised simply for being LGBT, which ironically is more demeaning to the entire demographic because it reduces them all to simply their sexual preference rather than who they are as people.

Then again, I see plenty of them doing that themselves already.

>>94221218
Its just gay

>>94221218
1, it's just for brownie points. If Korra had ended without the lesbian deal it would have been left completely unmemorable aside from being a failure as a series, and unfortunately it worked

2, to call this sort of thing out as forced or hamfisted is basically business suicide.

This is what bothers me about how the west specifically the US deals with gay characters.

>fuck the rest of the story.
>the only point that matters is that they are gay.
>wrap EVERYTHING around the point that the characters are gay.

>>94221218
So far its just gay, and it's really poorly written too. Even the art is bad desu so there's pretty much nothing redeemable about this comic unless your only interest in LoK is Korrasami. And even then KS is also written poorly.

Everyone knew this was coming, especially Bryke. Why make a thread?

>Since we're at it, why not make Kya and Kyoshi gay too?!

Wtf are you doing Mike?

>hey you are my ex-boyfriends ex-girlfriend lets scissor!

>>94221218
Has anyone ever met a gay or LGBT person that was capable of going 10 minutes without bringing up how gay they are or LGBT life/issues? They make there life about their sexuality themselves instead of being people.

what would happen if someone was to come in a reset the avatar-verse after the events of korra season 1?

would that fly? or would Bryke and Korrasami fans through a shit fit

>>94221603
I have, but they aren't making headlines in the media with how outrageously progressive they are.

>>94221641
korra is not nearly as hated by most people as it is on /co/, so there'd be no reason to do that without being glaringly obvious about your motivations are.

>>94221603
tumblr users aren't a really good indication of what gay people act like offline.

>>94221641
They'd trope a shot fit, but who cares? Korrasami fans don't even like avatar, and Bryke have proven themselves unfit to handle a series without a third writer to handle their autism. They're like Wheatley from Portal, they keep coming up with ideas, but don't have the faculties to separate the gold from the shit.

>>94221641
id love nick to come in declare korra non canon and reboot it on there own

just for the tumblr landwhale tears

>>94221641
At this point, if there's no gay elements in a new product, then it would be seen as gay erasure and the most horrible thing ever, with the author being worse than Satan himself.

There's no winning. They destroyed what they built by cursing it with immortality. It's like vampires. The gay content enabled it to live on and be put into the media spotlight far beyond its own death, but now they have to keep making it gayer, sucking the life-blood out of the rest of the story potential in order to keep its pestilent, undead corpse going.

They cursed the franchise to walk forever in the outer darkness.

>>94221218

I always compare Bill and Ellie in TLOU. One's a gay character that actually exists in their world and being gay is just a part of who they are, while the other is a pre-existing character that was either turned into a lesbian or had it come out when it literally didn't matter before or aftewards because the developers let "citizen cane of video games" get to their heads and had to score some more brownie points with the media.

>>94221365
What don't you like about the artist? From what I've seen it looks pretty good.

>>94221603

I used to work with a gay dude that was pretty chill. He'd bitch about relationship problems but not any more than all the girls at work did. He mostly talked about MtG when he wasn't talking about work stuff.

>>94221641
As much as i would love for that to happen, i dont see it happening. There would be a definite shit fit that would probably hurt Nick in the process so they're not going to do it, not in this time atleast.

>>94220913
But season 3 was kino

I heard mako is gay now is this true?

>>94221758
I think she's a good artist but she's not good at drawing these character who we're so used to looking different. She has a style that's heavily inspired by shoujo comics, and it doesn't really work with Avatar. Korra's got big goo-goo eyes most of the time and if you're unfortunate enough to be in the background of a shot you're reduced to weird scribbles most of the time.

There's also something REALLY off about how she draws Asami but I don't think Asami's ever looked like herself since book 1.

>>94221641
Forget Bryke and tumblr, Nick wouldn't let anyone retcon most of the series just because of a dumb ship. If a person who doesn't like Korrasami somehow was given the reins on a new installment they'd better have the tact to recognize retconning it from existence is a bad PR move.

>>94221758
The quality looks really bad imo, it's grainy and the characters all look off. I mean she can barely get Korra or Asami to look right to say nothing of everybody else. If it wasn't for the colours and their clothes i couldn't tell it was even them. I know because i've seen some her black and white fanart.

>>94221218
Just look at all the homophobia in this very thread. Just look at all the bashing The Legend of Korra gets on this very board for daring to have mature writing and daring to have a female lead.

As long as a sizable part of the audiences (the part that most often harrasses others) thinks and behaves the way it does, these things MUST ALWAYS be celebrated.

It's a culture war out there. We can't let our art sink into the quagmire these cretins want it to.

>>94221824
I forgot to add: I think Makani would've been an infinitely better choice and since she's doing the covers I do think she was Bryke's first pick but she's way too busy now to take on another comic series.

>>94221841
If it wasn't so shit people might not be so hostile towards it.

>these things MUST ALWAYS
So the actual quality of the qwork doesn't matter? Iy just gets a free pass because its gay?

Why?

Doesn't the gay community have any standards? Or are they so eager to rub it in the faces of detractors that they'll celebrate a subpar work purely to spite those that are vocal about its flaws?

Not yet, i don't think anyone here has any interest in story timing it.

>>94221927
Even here yes. /co/ might hate LoK more than it deserves, but these comics are legitimately bad and overtly agenda driven. People might have complained about things here and there, but this is outright dismissal because the comic is almost offensive.

>>94221603
I have this gay friend from college whom I didn't know was gay for about a year or so. He only told me when I teased him about some chick being his girlfriend.

>>94220866
Sometimes I really, really hate reviewers and critics nowadays.

>>94221218

You simply aren't noticing the LGBT people that don't talk much about their gender/sexuality they're not drawing attention to themselves. And when somebody gets shit on/isolated for being LGBT, it's not surprising that once they find a community/culture of acceptance, it becomes a big part of their life

>>94221603
On the flip side, sites like this will shit on pairings like this just for being LGBT. Shitty straight couples in fiction, people will talk a little about shitty they are then move on. Shitty LGBT couples will get massively dumped on here just for being LGBT, even if they're not written all that differently from shitty straight couples. I don't even think Korrasami is all that build, people ridiculously exaggerate the lack of buildup. If either Korra or Asami was a guy but everything else about their relationship remained the same I don't think people would shit on it even half as much

>>94221979
Are they. I only see the same pages posted here but not the whole comic. That doesn't exactly make for a clear picture here.

>>94221603
Most of us keep quiet about it and don't make a big deal. It's mostly the East/West Coast fags who can't or won't stop making a giant fucking deal about every little thing.


Also the trannies... bringing trannies into the fold was the single biggest mistake in the history of LGB rights. It's their fault we can't even bring up gay rights now without having to sit through a two hours rant about MUH BATHROOMS and MUH PRONOUNS. Fuck those mentally ill freaks.

>Doesn't the gay community have any standards?
To be fair, most of Korrasami LGBT supporters are tumblr queers, not real gays.

I'm gay, can they stop making a spectical out if this?

>>94222180
> sites like this will shit on pairings like this just for being LGBT
That's because no one defends a shitty straight pairing for being straight. It's treated on it's merits most of the time. So a straight pairing that is shit will be called out as such.

Now take Korrasami. It's a shitty relationship by any standard. But it's lgbt so it has to be good and it has to be catered to. Could you imagine anyone defending things like in this comic had it been about Makorra instead? I can't. It would have been hated by everyone and we could move on from there. There wouldn't be a review about "enriching" the mythology of avatar by tearing down Atla characters with a Makorra pairing, that shit just doesn't seem to happen.

So the problem isn't that they're gay per se, but that you can't criticize a gay pairing without being called a bigot. And there will always be someone around to defend a shittylgbt pairing because of some randomly selected reason. Be it censorship or bigotry.

>>94222259
I think it's better than what Yang gave us, but I guess that makes my argument completely invalid now.

>>94221477
>Wtf are you doing Mike?
What /co/ has been saying for quite some time. I recall threads that had people saying Kyoshi was gay and only had a kid because she lived so long she tried different things. And people here would say Kya is gay.

>>94222384
Nah Yangs comics weren't good either. Atleast the art was cute for Atla comics, but i wouldn't say they were good. Especially the "sweetie" talk between Aang and Katara was cringey. I'd just say i think you're wrong about these being better than the Atla comics, they worse imo, but definately not better.

>>94221603
Yes, but they hate the lgbt community in general as much as I do, which is a lot.

>>94222438
That's opinions though, nothing more. And we know /co/'s opinion about Korra

>>94222452
Sure, but the LoK comics live up to /co/s expectations. Whereas i think the Atla comics didn't, it's not like they're universally loved here btw, most people didn't like the Atla comics either.

And the LoK comics are bad for other reasons than opinion. The dialogue is flat and out of character for the most part. And when it isn't that it sounds just like an agenda piece. It's uttering statements we're supposed to agree with regardless of hiw they fit into the overall story or context. The plot focus is on Korrasami but it doesn't know how it wants to handle that plot flipflopping between overzelous joy and making it a drama thing. It's just not really well though out or well executed.

But your opinion on the Atla comics vs LoK comics have no bearing on any of this or the validity of your argument.

No one likes Korra for the story, characters, and setting. They like it for the fag-fetishism. That's it. It doesn't matter how shit it gets. As long as Korra and Asami dyke it out, it's going to get 10/10.

>>94221603
I have a bi friend who isn't all outgoing about it and rarely mentions it. Although to be fair we all thought he was asexual since he never showed any interest in either gender.

>>94223311
The negatives far outweigh any positives. And in actually discussing the positives you quickly find out that they are neutral at best or wind up negligible. /u/ just wants yuri, as the board implies. But they are apparently conditioned to swallow anything that comes their way that's canon since they only have wishful thinking the vast majority of the time.
There is nothing good about the pairing other than the porn and even that has trickled down to nothing. And you don't need a canon relationship to produce more porn.

>>94221603

Contrary to what people here seem to think. I asked that because I do know 3 bi people and 2 trans that won't shut up about it.

The 3 bi's endlessly bitch and moan about Trump and representation in media. One of the supposedly bi women I know, (who says she can't actually date a women because muh internalized homophobia) I have never been able to sit through a movie that shows the Thor ragnarok trailer without hearing her say "I'm so gay for Hela" literally every time.

I'm trans and browse /co/. Been transitioned for 8 years, and nobody irl knows. Can't stand Tumblr shit and mainstream pandering. Trans people used to believe in two genders and wanting to blend in with the one they wanted to be. I hate people saying this or that character is trans or gay or whatever. Imo korrasami was hamfisted and not needed. Korea didn't need a love interest but the show jumped the idiot shark s2e1.

Yeah, see, LGB people who don't bring up that they're gay within the first few minutes of meeting them, or even for months after have more going on for them in their lives, and are actually interesting people. People who rely on their sexuality, race, gender, religion to completely define them are boring, uninteresting cunts. Liek those girls you meet who are so keen to tell you they're 1/24th native american 1/2 Columbian and 2/29th''s Columbian dark roast blend.

I've met plenty of people who don't fill me in on their sexual preferences until promted when it somehow comes up in conversation, those tend to be functioning people.

>>94221841
Dofus had a lesbian lead and mature writing (as much as Korra, at least), yet nobody was outraged.
Because it was well written.

The fact that Korrasami was the best ship outta this show doesn't mean that it was a good coupling in any way, just that the relationship writing for the rest of LoK was fucking atrocious.

>>94224132
That scene involves Raiko. When was he ever not a cunt?
So what she said isn't entirely wrong. He'd sing a different tune if he had anything to gain from it. I guess this is what fuels Zhu Li getting candidated for president.

>>94224294
Korrasami isarguably the worst ship to come out of LoK. It's the sole reason we have these shit comics being this shit for one.

Mako can't be really blamed for being a bad character when it was badly written and meant to be a fan pandering in the first place. Also after the breakup, he was seem very supportive to Korra despite all their fights. I was thinking they will probably try it again after all what Mako has been doing for Korra but Korra wasn't thankful at all to Mako

>>94224442
Well /co/ doesn't read comics after all.

>>94224523
I'm going to talk about Korra. It's not my fault the only thing to talk about anymore is that she's gay, that one is on Mike.

Korra was dog shit for so many reasons before that ten second hand holding at the literal last moment of a four season series.

But it is pretty embarrassing how big a deal people are making this, as if much cartoons don't have actual married gay couples with children. It's not about being gay, it's about fantasy self-insert shallowness.

Yes. He was also the Head of the CCF, ended up joining the Army and left as a Captain and voted Conservative.

>>94224655
Then what do you want to talk about? Even Mike thinks it's all that worth talking about that's why it's the focus of the comics. Despite more interesting conflicts, like the earth kingdom situation. Or a genuine attempt at the spirit portal stuff. But no it's about homophobia and acceptance in a world that hasn't mentioned either at any point during the show runs.

But it's this constant pushing and 'celebration' that's annoying people. I've got no problem with homosexuality or whatever people like, but when everything has to be co-opted into political messages that are blunt, push for aims beyond acceptance and are, most damningly at all, shit, you're going to annoy people, and some of that annoyance will end up being aimed at what you're celebrating.

This constant stream of 'celebratory' media is making people MORE racist, anti-homosexual, sexist, etc.

>>94221603
Most my coworkers don't know I'm gay, because its a nontopic. Not like I hide it or anything, more that who fucking cares?

Plenty of lgbt people just go about their lives, problem is that its that you don't know someone is as such unless they go out of their way to declare it in conversation or you see them with their partner. So often the people who are noticed are the annoying fuckers who make it the world's problem that they're gay or what the fuck ever.

>>94221603

Yes, because I have LGBT friends and don't just make assumptions based on loud minorities like you do.

>>94224758
I haven't read it no, i'm not about to pay Bryke any money to produce more of this drivel. But anything in the previews and interviews with them is about Korrasami first. It's the main plot of the comic anything else is secondary.

>>94224793
Oh, I guess there is a reason I don't bring it up in the last few years, because of >>94224791

I fucking hate it when people do the whole "you're so BRAVE!" bullshit when its not. It might be in good intention but it singles out people in an awkward as fuck way. If you really want to be accepting then just accept it, don't make it a thing, treat the other party like any other person.

>>94223383
Queer means odd or weird. And I still use it in that context.

>>94224855
Exactly.

Most of this stuff is being pushed not as to actually defend and allow homosexuals to just live their lives as they want to, but to advance other agendas or attack political or societal constructs. It doesn't even help homosexuals because ordinary people now are finding themselves grouped in with the mentally unstable who dance around in public and throw temper tantrums if people question them.

>>94221603
The difference here being gay people in real life aren't obligated to entertain you with their character

in Fiction and media a character must remain interesting by merit of who they are, and unfortunately most times "the gay character" is what they end up presenting themselves as.

I think representation is important. We still live in an age where most heroes are straight white dudes and I think you sometimes have to force a little diversity even if it makes the powers that be uncomfortable because often times they don't do it themselves. If you didn't bring it to someone's attention that they don't have good female characters, black characters, etc. they would probably never go out of their comfort zone to make them. I know I wouldn't.

I honestly feel like we're living in an age of transition and yeah, a lot of these stories are going to be garbage. That's just part of the deal. Not everyone is going to get this whole diversity thing well right out of the gate.

Anybody remember those awful 90's shows where they had to have one white character, one black, one Asian, etc. who all hung out with each other? It was contrived, stupid, and unrealistic but we loved those shows as kids and grew up with them. People who grew up with the Power Rangers remember them fondly even though it was carefully manufactured to be as politically correct and inclusive as possible, something we claim to hate today.

And this is coming from someone who thought Korrasami was handled horribly in the show. I can appreciate its importance but still acknowledge that it was done in probably the laziest and worst way possible.

They sure have some yummy fan art though.

Yeah na that's bullshit. So many cape characters have been racebent in the past few years, not to mention female Ghostbusters, the new Star Wars movies, and how insanely popular Steven Universe is. If anything, diversity has now become a marketing gimmick.

>And this is coming from someone who thought Korrasami was handled horribly in the show. I can appreciate its importance but still acknowledge that it was done in probably the laziest and worst way possible.
Steven Universe handled gay characters way better than Korra did. So did Clarence and Loud House.

Brykes execution was horrible. But you can make anything feel good if you have competent writers. This probably means it'd have to be rewrote from the beginning, but Korrasami by itself (Korra + Asami) could easily be done by a good writer.

BJ is officially part Jewish though. The original creators of Wolfenstein confirmed it. And no, I did not. I said they had some version of black female protagonist.

>Marvel goes the SJW route and loses 20-30K sales routinely because of it
>Korrasami now going the SJW route
One can only assume that Korrasami will suffer because of the ineptness in writing. When I say SJW I am more talking about the blatant pandering in stupidity for the cause of diversity. I think Kamela was done quite well, and I liked Gwen, for what it was worth. But when I see Marvel ultimately trashing their titles in favor of poor writing and diversity such as Thor, and including such terrible executions like America, it is not insane to assume Korrasami will suffer because of the ineptness in its writing quality because of forced diversity. Diversity can be good, but not when you have incompetent writers including diversity and forced problems for the sake of progressive tribute points. It's pathetic.

The fact that you can't see that the writing is shit means you probably haven't even read it, and are just butthurt because someone doesn't find the first entry to be acceptable. I have nothing against Korrasami, but I have major problems with Bryke. How about you take your low standards and shove them up your asshole, and go back to tumblr?

>>94227558
another opinion

>>94227583
retards here dont read comics

>>94227583
My argument is not that Dark Horse will suffer because they include same-sex relationships. I am arguing that it will suffer because of the writing quality because if you've read Turf Wars, it's like a highschoolers fanfiction. Same-sex is fine, but just like any topic at hand, poorly written, shoveled shit is not.

>>94227640
you sound like a fucking fool

>>94227543
It didn't look brown to me. It looked Olive, which is the typical asian skin tint.

>>94227588
Oh, so now you're reading my opinions eh? How about forming an argument on why poorly included diversity with incompetent, terrible writing, won't affect the Korra comics when it affected Marvel.

If you actually formulated a real argument I'd give you credence, but you're at the moment continuing to shitpost and you give no actual arguments besides the fact that you don't like my opinions. Give me something tangible, or fuck off tumblr.

>>94227728
not an argument

>>94227672
>>94227588
>>94227484
This is shitposting and you're all falling for the bait.

>>94227759
To be fair the person continuing to say he won't read posts because they won't align with his thinking is the one shitposting. He's currently giving no actual arguments on why the Korra comics won't suffer, and he continues to shitpost. It is painfully obvious he is just baiting, but people keep falling for it.

Korra is fine as a general idea.

>Angry avatar who isn't that interested in peace and is constantly itching for a fight
>Constantly trying to live up to the idea of an avatar who is loved by most, reviled by some villains, and regarded as 'great but misguided' by other villains
>Surrounded by the biases and weaknesses of her teachers (season 2's bullshit can fuck right off though in that aspect)
>Bisexual? Sure, that's been handled well before even by the Japanese, a culture that regards homosexuality as an amusing joke.
>Dealing with the aftermath of a supposedly 'golden' era, when in fact all previous defenders of peace merely delayed problems? Neat
>Cyber and steampunk? Sure
>Specialist techniques have become norm, at the cost of basic ones being far weaker? Definitely interesting
>Avatar's origin's weren't originally as noble as previously though? Go for it
>Previous Avatar couldn't fix the flaws of general society, and now that's on you? Excellent

On paper it's fantastic.

However, Korra's personality is akin to fucking Crabbe and Goyle in terms of guile, subtletly and empathy.

>This man committed genocide, and created an institution of hate
>Wow, he was the worst
>Wow Korra, that was some real maturity you just showed! Too bad it'll be gone next season
>Well, you beat the embodiment of darkness, this random street thug should be no proble- and he's tied you up and kidnapped you

Korra has good moments, but they don't seem to last. She is the anti-aang in every scene, apart from her rare moments of personal growth. The only time she isn't a violent douchebag is when it would prevent civil war, or save thousands of lives, or prevent the apocalypse... then she goes full paragon, except she didn't choose the bold text option, so now shit is fucked.

>>94220911

Well actually I think the show was pretty expensive, animation-wise. The writing on the other hand? Cheap.

>>94228562
Especially the first season. Shit looked fucking great.

>>94228694
>>94228562
Honestly the animation was really nice and it was a step up from AtLA (although AtLA still looks nice). I sort of disliked the 3D aspects we saw in both shows, but it's par for the course I suppose. Maybe if they would have blended them in more so it wasn't as noticeable.

>>94221603
Plenty. Frankly such topics usually aren't presented for discussion so it isn't discussed. I've never known an LGBT person that only ever talked about those issues, but then again I don't hang out with insufferable cunts.

is because Dofus is not in your face but more naturally and you get to catch the drift if not at first but after a while. The problem with Korrasami is that if felt too forced with the ending because there was no hints at romance, best friends sure because after the romance triangle, it was their way to start over again and I really believed this was leading to Korra finally having a close friend her age of same gender because she didn't have a person like that to befriend in the entire season, they were either kids or adults and for being a teenager, it must be frustrating if we consider the huge responsibility she carried for being the Avatar, so putting Asami back into the picture was a good way for Korra to become more natural as a character but nope, the letters, the concerns and the flatters (which girls actually do that to each other without any sexual feedback) all were romantic hints at each other without too much development. I don't mind that Korra got her dry noodle wet but the sudden decision of turning into gay or bi didn't sit well on me but that's not all. according to what everyone talks in this thread, seems like now they want to take the chance and make certain character be outed which doesn't feel like it should matter for the Avatar, but I guess in a perfect world with no war or nations colliding, there is nothing else for the Avatar to be called for so now they are moving on to sexualities and later on mix breeding

Why?

>I honestly feel like we're living in an age of transition and yeah, a lot of these stories are going to be garbage. That's just part of the deal.

What deal? Why is it important that we eat shit? Why is diversity for the sake of diversity a good thing?

>>94229066
It's not and regressives are only justifying it because it fits their ideology. Poor writing is inexcusable. Incompetence is now the standard, and acceptable writing is now masterful.

>>94229066

>Why?

Because different kinds of people exist anon. Some people may want to see themselves reflected in various media. You may not care but others might.

It's not hard to understand desu.

>>94229230
Not him but
>some people might want to see themselves reflected as token shit with handicapped writing
Pathetic.

>>94229059
Honestly I'd struggle to even believe that Korra and Asami were best friends. My first pick from the Krew would've actually been Mako and then Tenzin for who Korra's best friend is.

>>94228773
its almost like they read it and not look at one page and freak the fuck out

>>94229354
yeah the 'history of the GAYS' is like two pages or something and i bet in general being gay isn't illegal but it's just seen as an oddity so that's why you don't see a lot of them in avatar's setting

>>94229306
Tenzin was her mentor so there was supposed to be some sort of respect in there if Tenzin wasn't portrayed like s grandpa stuck in his old days. I couldn't see some friendship building except for a mentor and disciple.

Mako was kinda dubious, in the entire series I saw Mako trying to fix things with Korra in hopes of having another chance, I believed that was the possibility as a way to feed the Katara and Zuko hole TLA never offered and it felt right, it was Mako's opportunity to fix his bad character from previous season and start being a new Mako. But in the end he was just a support character

>>94229423
Actually I feel like if someone wanted to fix things between them it was Korra. Mako was the one who tried to keep his distance from her at first and she was clearly upset and hurt by that. Honestly I really did think they were setting up a Makorra reunion right up until the end of their last conversation in book 4, though in more of a "let's give this another shot" way and not a "I'VE NEVER STOPPED LOVING YOU, KISS ME" way.

> But in the end he was just a support character
Honestly that's pretty much the whole Krew. Korra never really found her Katara or Zuko.

>>94229507
I can understand why Mako made the choice of distancing from Korra, their entire relationship was a complete mess and it's fine to take some time off not to mention life puts you under many other tasks so priorities happen. Mako being the one distancing was a right choice. But at some point (or more likely at the end) Bryke thought that turning her into a lesbian (or bi) was a better choice.

>>94229507
>Honestly that's pretty much the whole Krew
That's true, after all Korra was strong independent woman and they all have to deal with it

Damn dykes

>>94229507
>Korra never found her Katara or Zuko
That's because she's a shit person though. She doesn't deserve love.

Wasn't her "supposed" best friend Bolin because I thought it was bullshit that Korra decide to just not speak to both Mako and Bolin and thought Asami was the only who understood her....

>>94222196
Agreed, I don't even understand why trans people are included in that. LGB are sexual preferences, trans people have a legitimate mental illness. It just muddies the waters. They should have outed them like they did the pedos.

>>94223270
I think they "took it back"

>>94230368
Korra's only actual best friend as proclaimed in the show is Naga

>>94224035
You're gonna get called a /pol/ scrub but honestly I think you might be right. Gay marriage was a very controversial issue, but as soon as it went through (and personally I'm glad it did, weed next plz) they started pushing trans rights next, which is even more controversial. Then the identity politics thing exploded and they tried to force Hillary down our throats. I think the Trump Presidency is just the beginning of a very long and painful backlash from the right.

>>94220911
I thought it was a great show just not for kids .

If anything, the awful Wan flashbacks showed that spirits are just as violent and capable of destruction as humans, if not more so because simply being around negative energy can cause them to become beasts of destruction against their will.

>>94225562
>Ugh, HELLO MEGAN?
Nah my dude, it was a pile of garbage.

>>94225764
>We still live in an age where most heroes are straight white dudes and I think you sometimes have to force a little diversity even if it makes the powers that be uncomfortable because often times they don't do it themselves.
I disagree. Let good ideas stand on their own. Forcing what essentially boils down to propaganda down people's throats will only make them resent the message as well as the content.

>>94225832
What is dofus? I've missed it apparently.

>>94221603
My friend is gay and he doesn't really mention it much.

>>94225764
Honestly I am 100% okay with Korra being bi and dating a girl. I just don't like Asami.

>>94228485
I've speculated that at some point the thrust of Korra was going to be that the industrialization of the world and drifting away from spiritual ideals was why she seemed so adrift. She was 100% ready to be the avatar (in contrast to aang), only to find that the world didn't really need an avatar anymore. The entire 2nd season is basically Korra creating a reason to stay relevant, at the expense of creating all of the problems from that point onward. She literally creates her own villains through a selfish act to stay important and maintain her avatar status.

I thought her being gay really came out of the left field. I mean her being gay doesn't bother me but it really seems like it was just tacked on at the end for some brownie points.

>>94230773
I think Mike's way of handling LGBT people in Avatar hasn't been great so far but I still think /co/ is overreacting to what's probably a single page in what's like an 80-page comic. Also let's not pretend /co/ would suddenly be interested in this comic if Korrasami hadn't been made canon.

>>94221603
Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals are usually all fine.

It's the fucking trannies who can't get over themselves.

>>94230944
You literally just said this is what you wanted, diversity for diversity's sake even if it's bad. And bashing Korra was a /co/ pass-time way before they made her bi.

>>94231001
I'm not the anon you responded to.

>>94231051
My second point still stands. We would have been shitting on this comic regardless.

>>94230890
This. I loathe playing Shantae because I am not a chocolate half gypsy with magic powers and GTA San Andreas because I am not a man from da hood. I also hated Prey because I am not a Native American.

>>94231282
And we can all agree that no one but japanese born italians like mario games.

>>94231282
Shantae is clearly caramel, not chocolate.

>>94220866
Would you believe it? I loved this series once.

>>94231364
I did too. I blame the lionturtles.

>>94223168
Honestly it's a lot to do with release schedule and expectation. Because mangaka grew up with other action shows with crazy abilities and flashy action, it's what they put into their stories because shit still sells. Plus, being able to use 19 pages a week compared to 21 pages a month, means action isn't decompression so much as main event.

>>94229187
I mean some people act like diversity makes something shitty half the time, I can't blame them when shit like Korra or SU exist but things in the past were good and it wasn't because the main characters were white.
