I like the show and I rewatched it a bunch of times but I can really never get a grasp on the illusive concept that is Korra's character development

Can you tell me what do you like about her character? Not starting up shit, actually intersted
>>
>>78051321
I thought a backwoods, physically-aggressive Avatar who gets shit done through coercion and force was a neat take on the character, as was getting to see her struggle with changing politics and modern technology.

Shame about all the other characters pretty much, the writers' obsession with teen romance, sloppy season finales, and their constant erasure of character development to facilitate drama.
>>
>>78054121
I mainly enjoyed her emotionality. We really get to see that in spite of her physical ability, she is emotionally and spiritually weak. Also, the end of season 3, and the beginning of 4 is one of the most realistic fictional depictions of depression I've ever seen.

I've always struggled with that sort of thing, so I guess she just clicks with me.

>Clone High is overrated
Not bad, mind you, just not as good as /co/ says it is.

>out of Seth McFarlane's three animated series, The Cleveland show is by far the worst

>Camp Lazlo was pretty good, the only reason it doesn't get the praise it deserves is because it's constantly compared to Rocko

>Tom and Jerry is shit and Jerry is the most unlikable cunt in television history

>Space Jam should've been the Looney Tunes' last hurrah and never used again

And finally
>the MCU being somewhat comedic is why it's succeeding the way it is
I'm not saying every other line needs to be a snarky quip (thanks Joss!) but being able to look at your own movie and say "This is a movie about people in tights punching aliens, shit is fucking silly" is what makes these movies work, what makes them feel real. People deal with surreal situations with comedy, that's just how we function, ask anyone who's been through combat in the Marines/navy/air force/etc.

I don't hate her. She's fine in her role as winy antagonist and sometimes-ally. She's not supposed to "likable", she's supposed to fit that role.

I like the fact that she is a total loser. I know that it was totally unintentional character trait but she is so unlucky, hotheaded, shortsighted and dim that she just fails at everything. Her intentions are good and she clearly tries to do her best but that just isn't enough. To err is human, and thus she is very human and very relateable character.

Korra is kinda like Tomoko from WataMote, you either like her despite (or because) of her constant bumbling or you hate her because of it. Of course, Tomoko is ineffectual because that is the point of her whole series while Korra is ineffectual because of bad writing.
>>
>>78054232
I wish they had been more consistent with her physical ability. It was really annoying and sad to me that she got beat up as much as she did. I was fine with her problem in terms of a weak identity outside being the avatar and spiritually, that would have made for interesting arcs to focus on i just think the writers failed to do that.

Also her character design is pretty nice.
>>
>>78054232
yeah, I gotta agree that end of season 3 and whole season 4 was the best written as far as her character goes
(except the stupid "oh god we have to give her a love interest but we ran out of them, ok let's just make her fall in lesbians with Asami at the last second, except we can't actually show them doing anything romantic on screen" thing)

I guess it's season 1 and 2 that really messes up a picture as whole - you don't feel like she grows or progresses to anywhere

The fact that all her friends are boring and not fleshed out at all is also doesn't help
>>
>>78054447
Her villains were way too OP and thus she looked like a chump

>>78054443
I also loved that aspect of the show but at the end of the day it is unintentional and just a bad writing
>tfw it was intentional

>>78051321
Young Justice was a better show than Justice League/Unlimited combined.
>>
>>78054626
>Her villains were way too OP and thus she looked like a chump
Honestly i don't think they were. Sure Amon was OP as fuck, but the Red Lotus or Kuvira? They're just good benders, the thing that Korra was supposed to excel at. And i'm not even sure if Unalaq was that OP, he was a super powered waterbender and thats it. I feel like Korra should have beaten anyone (except Amon) handily in a physical confrontation, but because of writers fiat she wasn't allowed to. The best of the fights was probably the Zaheer one, because it felt like he was doomed if she ever caught him, that just also had a disapointing end because Korra had to be bailed out by the airbenders.
>>
>>78054717
yeah, now then I think about it I agree -
except for Amon and Vaatu, all others should've been very hard and engaging battles, but battles she wins and thus shows how strong she is and "proving" how she doesn't need emotional and spiritual training and THEN fight Amon, loose her bending, have a crisis (like the one she had in book 4) and learn the spiritual stuff defeat Amon and in the end face Vaatu, the ultimate challenge and a mirror of her former destructive self

But again it's really easy to rewrite the show, that creators originally thought is going to be just one season and then were confirmed for 4, then reconfirmed during season 2 and rereconfirmed by the end of it.
>>
>>78054248
It actually felt to me like they were trying to get us to like or care about Candace despite her being a "whiny antagonist" or that she'd sometimes be rewarded for her trouble despite having selfish intentions or spending the entire episode being a rancid bitch or being a shit ally who keeps fucking everything up.

Like she'd fail to bust the boys, but then Jeremy would show up and do something nice for her immediately after or she'd get validated in way somehow despite not doing anything to deserve it.
Or when she's having relationship troubles or some kind of problem, we're supposed to root for her. For example. in Mission Marvel she keeps continuously keeping the boys from being able to give the supers their powers back, and yet we're supposed to feel BAD for her when Phineas justifiably tells her to fuck off?

TL;DR: I think she WAS intended to be likable and they did a shit job of it.
>>
>>78055095
I'm not sure that she needs to prove she doesn't need emotional or spiritual growth, i just think that she shouldn't need it to beat the bad guys, afterall fighting is supposed to be her speciality.

For instance Kuvira could have been an amazing opponent due to her leading a country that loves her. Or Unalaq because he knows more about spiritual matters than her. But when it comes down to fighting i think she should be able to beat them (after a hard and interesting fight ofc.) Then maybe deal with the fact that beating them didn't really solve the underlying issue.

With Unalaq for instance (assuming there is a problem with humans and spirits), she can beat him, but that doesn't change the relationship between humans and spirits.

Wakfu is overrated

Camp Lazlo is underrated

Flapjack is genuinely amazing for the most part, even if the art style can be inconsistent at times.

Stop motion is the best kind of animation but apart from Aardman and Laika nobody really gets it right, and even they aren't always as good as they could be (Boxtrolls would've been better if they'd just adapt the book it was based on more closely).

I don't like Marceline.
Her personality is boring teenage rebel number 7893 but she's kewwl cuz she plays bass guitar and doesn't like her dad!
Her voice is also incredibly grating to me for some reason.

I feel like people like her for these two reasons only: either
1. You want to fuck her
or
2. You identify her because you're also a dumb teenage girl that hates her dad but you're totally different because you like music

>end of season 3 and whole season 4 was the best written as far as her character goes
end of S03? you might as well get any moment when she is not talking and say it is some kind of development if your standards are so low.

S04 she was the same cunt that does whatever people tell her to do and thinks strength will solve everything. Hell, it starts with her trying to get good at punching, in the middle we have her fighting Kuvira because people told her to, and in the end we have her trying to maintain moral highground against an opponent she doesn't even know why she is fighting against.
>>
>>78055601
Pretty much, her biggest upside is that without her we wouldn't have Hunson (such a shame he only got offhand mentions after season 4, unless I missed something in 6 since I gave up on the show for a while) and that the other vampires in Stakes had cool designs. I liked the Farmworld version, though.

Season 1 of AT is massively overrated, 2-4 were the best ones. 5 has a lot of decent episodes. It's mostly the general failure of season 6 and second half of 5 that made the show unwatchable, not going away from the season 1 formula. Season 1 was inferior to Flapjack, too.

Nothing by Hartman is worth paying attention to. Including his Spider-Man fanfiction with ghosts which totally aren't ghosts.

AT season 2 is the best in my opinion.
Season 1 has some top tier episodes, but they were still getting the characters and tone down.
>>
>>78055746
No, I just dislike his style all around. He's not the worst, but most of his ideas are just so damn unappealing. And he has one of the most irritating fanbases on /co/ which almost entirely resolves around waifus, usually combined with /d/ worthy fetish shit.

Fear not, as fast as that Loud House thing hits, his fans will be outmatched by something even worse.

She was much more interesting earlier on as an antagonist, or at least back when she was more mischievous and chill.
She lost all of her edge as the show went on. Now she's just a generic teen and whiny as fuck.

Can't disagree there.

>>78053718

I don't mind her. It's just the show's narrative gymnastics to keep her as this high-strung whiny antagonist that nobody should take seriously get grating and sort of makes it a stressful watch for what's otherwise a pretty pleasant show.

>>78054121
I like how she's strong and aggressive. There are so many protagonist s that take a back seat to fighting and just spit out high school philosophy that iTs refreshing when she just wants to punch.

Then in later seasons, she found more of a balance between her hot blooded nature and being a diplomatic person like the avatars is meant to be.

Aside from her PMS in S2 I cannot think of a reason to not like her.
>>
>>78056050
No, it's all those things combined.

She went from one of the best fighters in the world to unable to walk, when she's also basically god incarnate. That's depressing.

She stopped eating because she was depressed. That's what depressed people do. They stop taking care of themselves.

She stopped talking to her closest friends. Why? BECAUSE SHE WAS FUCKING DEPRESSED. She couldn't deal with that shit!

Maybe you shouldn't talk about what you obviously don't know shit about, fucking stupid cocksucker.

No they don't. People don't stop eating for various reasons not just depression.

Maybe if you hate women. I hate women and think Korra makes good cautionary tale about what happens when you put them in position of authority.

Seriously though. It's not that she's bad by design. It's that she's not well-written and neither are events around her. She never overcomes her flaws and never properly suffer because of inability to overcome them, she just blunder into resolution when time for happy ending comes.
