>Sadly and unsurprisingly, there are also plenty of people who have lashed out with homophobic vitriol and nonsense. It has been my experience that by and large this kind of mindset is a result of a lack of exposure to people whose lives and struggles are different from one’s own, and due to a deficiency in empathy––the latter being a key theme in Book 4. (Despite what you might have heard, bisexual people are real!)

>I love how their relationship arc took its time, through kindness and caring. If it seems out of the blue to you, I think a second viewing of the last two seasons would show that perhaps you were looking at it only through a hetero lens.

> We did it for all our queer friends, family, and colleagues. It is long over due that our media (including children’s media) stops treating non-heterosexual people as nonexistent, or as something merely to be mocked. I’m only sorry it took us so long to have this kind of representation in one of our stories.

I love how he saying this like dykes are some kind of whimsical creatures who only practice courtship via secret and stealthy mating rituals that us silly heteros will never understand and then immediately says :
>It is long over due that our media (including children’s media) stops treating non-heterosexual people as nonexistent, or as something merely to be mocked
His refusal to treat them as anything but speshul snowflaeks has turned them into a mockery of both themselves and of good writing.

I'm betting that they hadn't decided on the final pairing until Nick cut their funding and they had to do that clip show. I think that's the point where they realized the only way they could save face was to be "revolutionary".

Problem is they just don't do anything an actual romantic couple would do like, you know show affection, human emotions towards each other or generally do ANYTHING to indicate they were above friends. Shit it was tricky to even call them that, the just seemed like comrades honestly.

Just watch, once homosexual relationships in media become common, there will be no more friendships anymore. Nothing will be safe from the sexual tension.

Assuming they can get enough investors together to do more Avatar universe series, have they said whether or not they're going to do the next series with a hero protagonist again instead of a girl? Avatar: Beach Volleyball was okay, but I'd rather have a real adventure for the next season.

Nick owns the right's I believe, so they could revive the series. But the writers have said that's it- there are done with Avatar. ATLA comics are still going to happen, but anything Korra might not happen again. Really doubtful Nick will do anything anyway, considering how appalling LoK did.

I'm one of the people that acknowledges that this showed the growth of their relationship at the beginning of the season by why the hell did she only contact Asami?
It still seemed incredibly cheap because it could have been anybody but Asami was arbitrarily picked and now we're supposed to retroactively say: "Oh I guess it was because she loved her...maybe?"

Why did Korra do so shittily ratings-wise after the first season? Is it because the quality of the show is really poor and the first season only did well off the steam of ATLA? Or was it because the changed the times from Saturday morning to Friday at night?

He's twelve and was just defrosted by a cute girl, after living in what I'd imagine was a pretty highly masculine environment that was the air nomad temple. It made sense, and his crush progressed as he grew older and got to know more about her.
>Sokka and Yue are starcrossed lovers after a week
I'll give you that. It was pretty forced.

The big different here was that Yue was a one off character that only appeared very briefly. Asami was a sort of constant throughout the entire show and half of her screentime was about wanting Mako's dick.

It doesn't make sense and wasn't clearly explained why she'd suddenly getting a hankering for carpet and why Korra would be the one she'd want to munch.

To pull it out of your ass to get in good with them is one thing. Fine okay. Didn't expect much of you in the first place after the first 2 seasons.

To be all "OH YEAH THEY'RE TOTES LESBIANS AND HERE'S WHY" to drive it home actually gets to me a bit.

If you actually read the post, it was not planned all along. Makorra was the end game when they only had one season. After they got extended they figured that couple wouldn't work and they made it clear at the end of season 2. They kicked around the idea of Korrasami after that, and them decided that was the direction they wanted to go, building their relationship in seasons 3 and 4.

Are all the scenes the same, just with Zuko and Azula switched, or just the ones you mentioned?
Because if EVERYTHING else was the same, up to and including the whole implied sex scene and Mai helping Azula escape from prison, I wouldn't complain.

If Azula was a lesbian under those circumstances it'd be fine. But I'm also assuming it'd require a lot of personality rewrites because as she is now it's hard to picture her as capable of loving another person.

The difference was that Aang was wanting that water tribe pussy since the first fucking episode. You didn't have just friendly moments that built up to the kiss at the end. That's not how most relationships work, you don't gain enough friendship levels to achieve the Romantic Partner class.

No, from the get go Aang wanted to make it romantic. You are a dirty fucking liar if you're telling me that from early on Asami wanted romance with Korra.

Like it, hate it, whatever, but don't fucking lie to me and say it wasn't pulled straight out of the writer's ass at the last moment.

if you do a google news search for Korra, the media is lavishing them with praise for being brave, groundbreaking, and progressive.

They are getting so much attention and recognition for this, the show is getting undeserving praise and will obviously get Emmys and other awards which it wouldn't have gotten if it didn't have this little 20 second scene at the end. Korra is getting all this attention that it wouldn't have before.

Yes it is, but the characters never really expressed that in any meaningful way. Just diagnosing them as "bi" still leaves a shitton of questions, like when exactly did Korra and Assmi figure out they were both gay? And attracted to one another?

Eh. Just a shitty capstone for a mediocre series.

Funny how people are trying to act like this is some huge step or something, when Asami is one of if not the most underdeveloped character in the entire series, and their 'relationship' is laughably contrived.

Does go to show how far things have fallen when creators are actively pandering to the shippers.

If you completely ignore the ending Mass Effect 3 was a rushed and troubled production that got fucked over by EA something hardcore. It's playable, but not up to the quality of the previous installments and had a lot of moments that grated on long time fans.

Like for example, there's the way the conversation mechanics got changed. In 1 and 2 you could talk to your crew and choose what you wanted to ask them and get more information. In 3, those conversations are "agree with x" or "agree with y"; no middle route, no more info.

Then there's the on disc DLC of Javik, which meant unless you were willing to pay extra you missed out on a lot, Beef Flanksteak rather than any of the long term mainstays, textures being poorly reused to the point that they're mapped to things backwards in some places, Liara being shoved down your throat regardless of whether or not you romance her, time and resources spent on poorly digitizing Jessica Chobot, while Tali's reveal can't even manage to match up to fan art in quality, bugs out the wazoo like the engineering bay duo somehow not talking unless you saved Ashley all the way back in part one.

It was a mess, ending aside. And rather than admit as such, they played the "If you hate this game you're entitled and probably a homophobe" card.

This annoys me the most, since she AND Asami turn bi at the same time, as if sexuality is that fluid and all the gays/bi are getting beaten up because it's their choice. As if spending time with your friends makes you interested in them sexually.

It's like if, I don't know, Goku hooked up with Vegeta out of the blue despite all the previous relationships and calling all bonding moments more than platonic.

That's been the case since the first production image, where her back was to the viewer. The media was going "She's brown! And look at those back muscles! Show of the millennium!"

And /co/ was right there with them, until the show actually started and she spent more time doing relationship bullshit and probending than being the badass we all wanted.

True, there'd be less bitching about it. It'd just be a shitty romance instead of a shitty homosexual romance.

The thing is, though it'd still be shitty. It'd still be last minute, and it'd still be dumb. But now with the carpet munching icing on this fuckcake, they made it EVEN FUCKING DUMBER.

Look at that. It's even more retarded because now we are no longer just dealing with a dumb and last minute romance, but one that requires breaking from the "heteronormalty". You need to talk about this shit, to explain it. You need to make it clear if you want to pull this.

They didn't.

And furthermore, fuck off with your "hetero lens" shit. We'd be calling the scenes arguably platonic even if one of them was sporting a five foot cock.

Enough arguing, more homolust.

One show. One show does this, and look at them all whine like manbabies about it. The only way to sate them is if every show only has men ending up with women.

You were saying that there was just as much hinting at Korrasami as there was Kataang. But Kataang wasn't subtle, so if Korrasami is, then there wasn't as much hinting, hetereonormative lens or no lens.

Either the amount of shipbait was equal or it wasn't. You can't have it both ways, so now you're just trying to reaction image me.

>They complimented each other's hair!
>That was proof, people!

Funny thing is a lot of people on tumblr are mad at him for that comment because the setup for Korrasami was practically not there.

Is Hotwheels-chan down or something? Oh wait, it always sucks, doesn't it?

The way I see it is this. Korra wanted to be wanted. Everyone kept telling her that they have everything covered that they wouldn't need her. Korras whole thing was being the avatar it was being wanted being useful but know all her friends are leaving her behind. All but Asami. She was the first one to be there for Korra and make feel as though she still mattered. I think that had a big part to do with them becoming close. Asami more than likely spent most of her day with Korra if she wasn't rebuilding the city. So safe to assume they really got to know each other. But because each season was 12 episodes they couldn't actually show that. It would be up to the viewer to understand that. But this is myMySpace cents on the matter.
