Wild of Legend of Korra to be so bad that it makes everything good about the original show look entirely accidental in retrospect

[raavaatus]

i deleted that reblog because it’s just a few blogs having a very valid conversation about the comics and how they’re handling asami and how her gateway to relevancy was through her romantic life and i don’t want them to get shit on for it.

anyway it sucks as a bi woman that two years later i’m still not really excited about korra & asami and the strongest reaction to asami getting more focus that i can scrounge up is “she doesn’t deserve it”.

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO MAKE THE JUAN THE FIRST AVATAR EPISODE

Look, I’m totally okay with some minor internal inconsistencies. It happens! But when you introduce the idea that lion turtles were actually the ones to give the power to bend to humans, you entirely retcon everything from AtLA that says that certain animals and spirits taught humans to bend - sky bison, badger moles, dragons, and the moon spirit.

And if the moon spirit isn’t the first water bender, and humans don’t derive their ability to waterbend from the moon spirit, then why did Admiral Xiao need to capture it? Why did Princess Yue have to die? 

Why were Zuko and Aang so enlightened by the Sun Warriors if they weren’t really the first humans to firebend? Why were dragons so sought after and hunted if they weren’t the original firebenders?

In the Lion Turtle universe, Omashu isn’t a city born of the love of the first two human earthbenders. Because earthbenders were around longer than cities were on the earth.

in all honesty books 2 & 3 had some pacing issues as well and as much as i love the individual villian arcs i would rewrite the whole show after s1 ep10  :/
