Did you want this to happen?

I didn't give a shit, I just wanted it to not have a hack ending
>>
>>82381348
At first I did because of hot lesbians.

Then I saw that it was rushed as hell and was just pandering to homosexuals, so I didn't.

Then I saw the butthurt here in /co/, so I did again.
>>
>>82381348
Did it happen? All I saw was a tweet after pressure and Korra finally letting go of her issues.
>>

Is it the same handful of people who keep making these threads? Please kindly fuck off. You already know the opinions you're going to get.

>At first I did because of hot lesbians.
I think this was /co/'s general response . . . then we realized it's a Nick cartoon and not born from our subconscious, meaning nobody's gettin' busy with the camera nearby.
>>
>>82381348

>literally no foreshadowing or building up to romantic or sexual feelings between the two
>last episode jumps the shark and has them walk in to a beam of light holding hands
>Internet explodes

I didn't care if it happened or not. Korra was the worst thing to happen to that show since the Fire Nation invaded.

No...honestly I didn't give a shit about the shipping in general. The fact it came out of nowhere with literally no buildup was so asinine and made it completely unbelievable.
>>
>>82381348
After the romance bullshit of the first two books, yes.
This or no hookups.

>>82381348
It would've been nice in retrospect.

>>82381756
....It's sad that these two honestly have more chemistry and is more believable than the pair we got.

I'm not upset about the lesbian part.

I'm upset that a show with such great potential that followed a fantastic series like ATLA was so mangled and unimpressive.

I'm just disappointed at this point.

Korra is to Avatar as Act 6 Act 6 is to the rest of Homestuck.

I never read Homestuck, so you'll have to explain exactly how bad Act 6 is.

Never read Homestuck or cared for it. Spoil it for me.

>>82382523
There was a retcon (a literal, actual retcon) as a plot point which solved everyone's problems off-screen so the story could get rushed to the end.
>>
>>82381348
The worst part is that since the ending, almost all Korrasami fanart has gone from decent cheesecake to "IN YOU'RE FACE CIS BIGOTS!!! #LOVEWINS" liberal crap.
>>
>>82381756

>>82382594
Oh no they interrupted my hetero fun for actual lesbian love whatever will I do!!!!
>>
>>82382610

>>
>>82382571
Also during the retcon two boys who were shipped together by the fandom hooked up.

Like there was chemistry sure but the entire relationship happened during the off-panel portions of a retcon and the author didn't even bother being explicit about it at the end because all he had time for was ONE EPIC FIGHT SCENE and that's it.

The comic was trying to be all self-aware like "Ha ha it's a retcon, get it?" and the author is like "Ha ha it's going to be like the next Korrasami, watch out!" and from his track record usually that meant something which APPEARED shitty but was actually brilliant.

But no, it's just, exactly what it was, a retcon with a slapped on relationship thrown in because fuck it.
>>
>Lesbians
I fear for Asami's safety given the prominence of domestic violence among lesbians.
>>
>>82382610
You know that fanarts and fanfics of ships aren't always pornographic, right?
A lot of them try to be cute, to be about love and all that shit.
>>
>>82382668
Statistics?
>>
>>82382642
Did the backlash come from sites other than /co/, or did the other fan communities swallow everything without criticism as what happened with the Korrasami ending.

>>82382668
Knowing Korra's record, especially.
>>
>>82381348
I honestly dont see how them going on a small vacation together totally means they are lesbos.
There was no hints or build up at all, so as far as we know all they did was spend some time talking girl talk in Spirit world, like how one of them should have snatched up Bolin back when they had the chance.
>>
>>82382738
Word of God said we all had our heterogoggles on too tight to notice their blossoming romance and they're totally rugmunchers now.
>>
>>82382609
>>
>>82381348
No. It has no reason to exist other to pander to tumblr. People who insists this ship was foreshadowed is delusional and needs to get into a real relationship other than obsessively pining over a fictional one.
>>
>>82382738
Your what if scenario fails the Bechdel test .

If they had actually lead up to it I wouldn't have minded but it just came out of fucking nowhere. It felt like cheap writing. Another layer of shit upon something already layered with shit.

Yes and no.
I love yuri but what the show actually did felt so pandering. I would have loved for the relationship to be explored. but then you'd have to cut out one of the subplots (either Mako or Bolin) in either Season 3 or 4. I mean, every relationship Korra has with this show is fucked up in some way, especially with Asami since Korra fucking fought her father and then the whole shit with Mako.
>>
>>82382761
then that just shows how incompetent they really are, as even the most somewhat decent writers should know "show, dont tell."
>>
>>82381348
From season 1 yes, I wanted it to happen. Mainly cause I hate triangles unless they are unusual styled like full circle or perfect. I was one of those fags that loved the ending, and argued with other fags in the days and weeks after.

I still like the show and think every complaint most /co/ whiners use is utter bs but I did to stay away from threads like this.

what did Mako ever do to deserve this.

Mako was the unlikable chad in both first seasons, adult Mako is best Mako.

He fucked the two hottest women in republic city, one probably used the avatar state while they boned.

He's okay.
>>
>>82381348
Yes. Straight ships are boring. Gimme that gay shit.
>>
>>82381348
It was the only plausible relationship with any build-up or chemistry at all. Anyone who says otherwise REALLY needs to watch season one again.

I was surprised because I didn't see it coming

I found it unimportant also the show was dying in quality and episodes, so I didn't care at the end

>>
>>82383627
It works better than any shitty het ship possible in this show.
>>
>>82381348
Not really. Maybe it could've worked but it felt rushed and underdeveloped.

Plus Asami is such a lame character so having half the ship be bland as fuck hurts it overall.
>>
>>82381348
Nah, it was lame and underdeveloped. It should've just ended with Korra not getting with anybody at all. Hell, the entire show would've been improved if Korra never got with anybody at all. Romance was the bane of this series.
>>
>>82383652
>korra nor asami never gave the sweet and lovable bolin a chance instead of the pretty boy mako

Their fucking loss~
>>
>>82383848
Korra gave Bolin a chance. They were adorable but she wasn't into to him. It happens all the time.
>>
>>82383885
Yeah, a chance for all of 5 seconds before swapping spit with his brother who was already in a relationship.

Korra is a whore.
>>
>>82383951
She went on a date with him. How many dates do you think she owes him?

Does it? Why?

And "because lesbians are hot" is not a valid answer. That's the line of thinking that got us here.

Not the same anon but doesn't she literally fall in love with mako based only on his looks when she first saw him?

Because het relationships are fucking boring. No one wants those anymore.

Fuck off.

>>82384004
I agree with you. I'm a /u/ser and I seeth in anger every time I see Korrasami on the front page which is literally everyday since the show ended.
>>
>>82381348
No it was a crackship before the ending, and after it was "confirmed" it only became worse because of it's fans. I has basicly killed LoK and replaced it with Legend of Korrasami, despite giving the relationship all of 5 seconds total.
>>
>>82382725
There wasn't backlash because the hyped died down so much after a year long hiatus.

Just quiet, whimpering disappointment.
>>
>>82384053
So how does that explain aang, sokka, zuko?

You have a point for katara having a crush on jet...or whatever that dude name was.

It's funny to me that the only thing about this show that's ever really talked about and remembered is its shit romances, and how terrible the writing is overall.

There's no one in Korra as likeable or memorable as Sokka, Toph, Bumi, Koh, Azula, Iroh, Ty Lee, and the freedom fighters. There's nothing in the show even remotely half as interesting as Airbender's subplots or one-offs.

Anything that Korra had that was any good was what it copied from Airbender. Beyond that, it's a great example that Bryke are basically a pair of twin George Lucas when it comes to writing and producing. Airbender was made great in spite of them, not because of them.

Every relationship in Avatar is forced because Avatar is poorly written.

It sure was pretty, though.
>>
>>82384748
I actually think every season of LoK had more potential than Atla, with the exception of book 4 which seemed like a repeat.

I also like Korra more than any other avatar character.

Unfortunately Bryke just wasn't up to the job of making it work.
>>
>>82381348

Korra had a hell of a lot more chemistry with Asami than she ever had with Mako.
>>
>>82385276
The only people who ever had chemistry with Mako were Kai and Wu because they could push his buttons without turning it into a relationshit fest.

So by your logic, Korrasami works solely on the fact it's a lesbian relationship?

Yeah I think there's some holes in your logic.

>I actually think every season of LoK had more potential than Atla
>S02
opinion discarded.
>>
>>82385654
It had a great concept, everywhere i saw people were hyped for more spiritworld exploration. Unalaq even looked awesome in the concept art.

Book 2 could very well have been amazing, but because bryke were retarded they fucked up every season at least a little bit.

Now i would like to know why you think Book 2 didn't have potential to be good.

More potential or not (I actually agree with you), they failed miserably and completely.

Everyone wanted to like Korra. We were hyped as shit for her. Then they fucked her up.

At the end of the day, LoK is a giant. lumpy mass of disappointing, failed potential.
>>
>>82385773
Completely agree, the only good things coming out of LoK is the character designs, animation and music.
