I love Katara in the earlier episodes of Book 1 and how she deals with sexism in both southern and northern tribes.

Something about loving your culture but also recognising parts of it that are harmful to you—fighting to preserve your culture that has been the victim of imperialism and clinging to your cultural identity so hard—only for the men of your community to invalidate and belittle you and try to disenfranchise you at every turn. ATLA handled it very well by having Katara always stand up for herself and by also not writing her giving herself up to Fire Nation culture in any way, shape or form.

People who think Katara should give up "barbaric" water tribe culture and girlboss her way into the imperialist power do not get how impactful it was to show the water tribes being sexist and still not demonising or othering them. Still having Katara cling to it—but never at a cost to her self respect.

“the parallels between Zuko and Sokka-” hey HEY. I am grabbing you. The parallels between Katara and Azula. Both the younger, gifted bender. Each one being the inverse of the other: a living, breathing what if. Katara being horrified at what her bending can do when pushed to its limits vs Azula always trying to push hers further. Katara instinctively trusting everyone so easily, even though it burns her sometimes, and Azula saying trust is for fools, fear is the only reliable way but still losing everyone she cares about in the end. Katara yelling at her dad and being hugged in return vs Azula doing everything possible to please her father still being harshly reprimanded, so you know exactly why they both turned out the way that they did. Katara’s trauma being connected to losing a mother vs Azula’s being connected to having a mother. Katara ultimately being the one to take down Azula and standing over her, staring pitifully because that’s who she could have been, in another life. is this thing on

i take you by the shoulders and shake you. the arrow tattoo is how you show airbending mastery within the air nomads. it's not an avatar thing

Iginio Straffi… please remember Winx’ stile liberty/art nouveau roots, the art direction is literally falling apart due to the loss of it

[teeswinx]

The more you think about early Winx’ art direction and world building the more you realise what a unique, crazy combination of things it is, and the more you miss it when you watch the later stuff…

Rikki Chadwick from H2O Mermaid Adventures

[animeated]

For my grand return to this blog I shall be watching the H2O animated series that I totally forgot about!

[animeated]

First episode impressions: The theme song and animation are ass. The character designs are pretty cute, although I do miss Rikki's live action hair. Cleo suddenly has a living mom. The younger sister is annoying as ever.

Also idk how to feel about them having different coloured tails

Misuzu Moritani and Haruka Murakami from Fragtime are canonically sapphics, specifically lesbians!

They are in a relationship!

Anime adaptation of "Fragtime" by Takuya Sato

Type: Movie

Duration: 60 minutes

Aired: Nov 22, 2019

Season: Fall 2019

Studio: Tear Studio, East Fish Studio

Theme: School

Genre: Girls Love, Romance, Drama, Fantasy, Sci-Fi

Summary:

Misuzu Moritani is an introvert who has always had difficulty interacting with her classmates, quickly becoming flustered whenever someone tries to talk to her. Sometimes, she will use her ability to stop time for three minutes to escape troublesome social situations. One day, as Misuzu watches the suspended environment around her, she observes that her classmate, Haruka Murakami, is somehow able to move despite her temporal influence. From that moment on, Misuzu experiences new wonders as she explores more of the world she has long avoided; no matter where time may take her, Misuzu can count on Haruka to always be at her side.

It was worth the ending! It reminded me of that one scene from Princess Mononoke where San had threatened to kill Ashitaka, but Ashitaka had powerfully replied, "You're beautiful."
