Gladiator 200th Chapter Celebration
Favorite Character: I think it’d have to be either Rhone (most metal character ever, down to the gladiator name) or Rui Shi (the voice of reason, or at least most of the time, heh) I don’t think you could make Rhone more metal than he already is (literally killed his own parents for selling out the tribe, then proceeded to train until he turned into a hulking beast of a person, and then became so soulless that he disregards potentially major injuries? Metal af). Rui Shi embodies responsibility and tries pretty darn hard to keep Azula and Sokka out of trouble. I really appreciate how earnest he is. Least Favorite Character (one who’s constantly there): Dunno, all of the characters (at least the main ones) are pretty darn compelling. Other characters, especially those who antagonise the main pair, I still find entertaining to watch so I can’t say I don’t like them. Favorite “Antagonist”: Hmm, I think this’d be Seethus or Rhone, I think. Seethus because they’re spooky and also fascinating simply by the nature of their existence and current situation (how did an otherworldly demon come under the control of Ozai, and why does it continue to listen to him?) Rhone, as I’ve already mentioned, is metal to the core. I also like the contrast between him and Sokka. Favorite OC: Already kinda mentioned above, but I guess Rui Shi would also fit here. Favorite Gladiator: Millennium Dragon, ‘cuz he’s cool xp. I like him because he’s a gentle giant sort of person, and is obviously incredibly hard-working to have trained enough to do what he can do. Favorite Suitor or a Suitor I wished would make moves on Azula: Aonu. Air of mystery around this one, I’d love to see him more often just to see what he’s getting up to (and I expect we’ll see a fair bit of him and Renzhi in the next arc, so great for me :D) Most Relatable Character: Shoji, for sure. Guy is friendly but super-intimidated by all the super-rich, super-strong/super-skilled sponsors and benders he meets. Just a normal guy interacting with what are basically superheroes, like a normal guy in a Marvel movie. Character I’d like to see more: Probably Aonu/Renzhi, or Rhone, but also Renkai - just to see how he’s dealing with the General and his mission. Favorite Canon (Gladiator canon)Pairing: Not really one for pairings, to be honest, but I enjoy the bits with Rui Shi and Song. Very peaceful. Favorite Arc: The Fire Lord’s Shadow, for it’s blend of action and detective-novel-y mystery/thriller sort of thing. Also when Seethus is truly introduced, who is interesting to watch. Favorite Place/Location: Don’t really have one. Part 1 or Part 2?: Difficult to choose, especially when both have lots of great arcs… I wished to see Sokkla more in/like … : Challenging situations where they have to work as a team. Again, next arc will probably be a blast for me :P Guessing Game: Finish the following sentences: I think Azula & Sokka’s relationship will be revealed when/like/because of … when one of Azula’s enemies finally decides to send someone to spy on her/Sokka. Honestly surprised this hasn’t happened yet. Either that, or Sokka gets gravely injured somehow and Azula rushes in and says some pretty incriminating stuff out of grief or cries or something. I believe at the end of Part 3 …someone’s gonna die. Ozai? Probably. One of the main cast (Azula, Sokka + Fire Nation pals, Kino, Aang, Katara)? For sure. No better way to make stakes higher than by killing someone lol.
