The fact they don't even know what n-pass is while acting as if they're black.

I find this recent discourse for atla really interesting cuz like look at the end of the day the non canon ship gets more love in fandom typically cuz theres more to explore with it fandom is for what you dont get in canon and all that so historically imo Zutara has dominated in the ship war more people seem to like it. So why the sudden flip?

Well theres been a rise of a respect canon cuz its canon people so that is a factor but i dont think thats the main thing .

I think basically its 2 things

1. There were a bunch of people who heard alot about zutara but hadnt watched avatar or had a long time ago and were not big into fandom who were expecting to see alot more content between Zuko and Katara given the popularity and didnt get it it got over hyped to them when they watched it /rewatched it. And so now fully divorced from the original atla fandom and their experiences the ship doesnt make sense.

You didnt see the voice actors ship it or the creators mention it or even the animation thing where they were all chibi and in school and they made a love pentagon with Zuko Aang katara and the blue spirit who somehow was his own character despite being Zuko.

To be fair you dont have to the source material is enough to interpret things but without that context shippers seem more insane so its a unfair reading of the fan base's attachment to the ship. And of course all all long running fandoms they do start fuelling their interest from fandom more than canon when theres not enough content and it becomes its own thing not really reflective of canon which is fine.

But perhaps some forgot how far theyd deviated from canon in their portrayals while still fueling discourse which both confused those outside the fandom and made them frustrated .

2. They saw the clips of the new movie or all of the new movie and saw Aang as attractive

I don't say this to be dismissive but in fandom it very common that the ships that get popular are with characters who get accepted as attractive or with characters who are considered relatable or are otherwise projected on in some way. Katara Toph Zuko and Sokka were all some combo of this Aang tho wasnt. So Aang ships didnt tend to be as popular outside of the kataang shippers from my experience.

Then we get this poster of Adult Gaang

And this design of Aang in Legend of Korra

And tbh neither were very popular while the other designs were very well received

People hadnt been as curious about adult Aang as a design compared to some other characters (Zuko) so there wasnt a super popular fan design that got latched on to either. So that did not help with the shippability of aang.

But then the movie comes out this the redesign

And people like this look more

And then the movie leaks and people see clips and suddenly

Oh no hes hot now we getting thirst traps

Now you could say hold on now people have made intimate objects and fish and lions and horses redesigned to be hot people.

And thats true.

But there are certain personality types that get those redesigns and they typically aren't the sweet peace loving types.

And now finally in 2026 Aangs shippability is getting a bit of a boom and so the first ship that gets looked at is the one that got the most attention the one that was involved in a ship for over a decade aka kataang.

This is not to say that no one had any Aang ships just that they werent as popular as ships with other members and when they might have been typically.

For example

Aang has just as many parallels and thematic connections with Zuko as Katara does if not more. Their ancestors are linked Katara tried to talk Zuko out of his path in Ba sing Se but Aang tried in S1 when Zuko rescued him in the blue spirit first. Their backstory episodes are told together Aang even cuts ties with Roku in the comics because he suggests Aang might have to kill Zuko.

In many fandoms that kinda thing is the basis of at the very least a very strong friendship that down the line could blossom into a really popular ship that dominates a fandom

Can't really deny that but in spite of that Zukaang didnt get much traction.

And i think it didnt because people just werent that interested in shipping aang at least not the masses but thats changing now and im curious what new ships will now start getting more popularity. Im personally hoping for more aang ships.

I liked zukaang from when I first watched the show, but no, Aang did not try to talk Zuko out of his path in the Blue Spirit episode. Aang asked Zuko if they could have been friends a hundred years ago, while Zuko was unconscious, and was ready to fly away the moment Zuko attacked him. There was never the level of connection and trust there as between Zuko and Katara in the caves, which is also why Aang forgave Zuko more easily when he wanted to join them.

I should have specified this more. They didnt have this long drawn out conversation or anything.

But Aang does see that the guy who busted him out who he just worked together with who just got shot getting him out is in fact Zuko. True his attempt at communication is not as heartfelt or verbose as Kataras but i would say him asking Zuko that question and not splitting after getting him to safety immediately was an attempt at communication.

A much more flawed attempt so very understandable why Katara was more pissed than Aang but still an attempt.

My point was that Zuko aang had moments too the kinda moments that normally get shippers super excited. They had it during the tv show they had it after in the comics. They had it in their themes. The show purposely paralleled them.

In many other fandoms this kinda thing usually is the kinda stuff that makes ships really big. But Zukaang never got that big.

And imo it didnt because Aang historically wasnt very shippable to many in the fandom. But i do think the current fandom especially after this movie sees Aang as more shippable. I should specify like from the movie clips not necessarily the movie itself many havent seen that.

But what you actually said was that Aang and Zuko have just as many connections and thematic parallels as zutara, and they don't. I am saying this as someone who ships both, Aang and Zuko don't have the personal connection that Zuko and Katara have. Aang isn't so much trying to connect to Zuko as he is talking about what he wishes could be in that scene, and I'm not trying to diminish it because I do think it's important, Zuko remembers it and brings it up to Aang when he is trying to join the gaang. But it's not on the same level as Zuko and Katara's moment of forgiveness, trust, and vulnerability in the caves, and they don't have a relationship arc the way zutara has.

I count the multiple clashes as a connection i count the fact that Zuko saved Aangs life in s1 as a connection theres a fixation zuko had on aang and a potential for things to be different aang saw in Zuko as a connection. And thematically of course you have the parallels with theit backstory and the narrative purposely giving you that parallel. You have Zukos journey to join the Avatar involve him discovering his family tree involving Aangs previous life.

That kind of stuff is what shippers obsess over especially in action adventure type series like what Avatar has. True Zutara had the bonding when they trapped together and then Zuko having to redeem himself in Kataras eyes and you have the tag team with Azula of course.

But its fandom we are all working with potential for a good story like say in fan art or a comic here. Especially now the series is now long over and the conversation of what is going to be the canon ship is no longer relevant.

So potential wise id day Zukaang has just as much shipping fuel as Zutara if not more especially if you count the whole thing with Aang cutting off Roku for Zuko. I mean they even have matching scars one in the front one in the back at the exact same spot done by the same person and healed by the same person.

It is hard to get more paralleling themes than that. And thats the kinda thing shippers usually love.

But their popularity is nowhere near Zutara or Zukka despite having all those hallmarks of popular ships. And i think its just cuz Aang has historically been less shippable in the eyes of the fandom.

I dont necessarily expect overnight aang to get the most popular ships or anything now but i am anticipating a bit of a bump in new content in fandom involving shipping him. Which would be nice.

Though as soneone else pointed out Zutara has had more backlash over the years not just from kataang shippers but just like in general and so the current backlash could also be an extension of that. But i still maintain that Aang being seen as shippable by more people still contributed.

Although i have to ask i only got on board with Zuko aang very recently but what do you mean they dont have a relationship arc ?

They go from Zuko being obsessed with killing Aang in S1 to being besties by the end of the show. And he might have targetted the whole squad but he did because of Aang.

If Katara and Sokka weren't affiliated with the Avatar he wouldn't have bothered with them So i do still consider that a specific thing for Aang and Zuko when Aang personally starts out as the object of Zukos obsession.

I mean my originsl post was not really about zutara vs zukaang but rather just fandom trends using the lack of popularity zukaang has than one might expect .

Sorry if this isnt how you mean it but it kinda sounds like while you like both ships you think Zutara has more shipping fuel behind it and has more validity. So you are latching on to anything in my original post that might suggest otherwise. In which case i wanna say right now i really dont want to start a which ship deserves to be acknowledged more debate. That really wasnt the point of this post.

The thing is, you are the one starting the "which ship deserves to be acknowledged" debate. You said zukaang has just as much if not more shipping potential. You are the one making the comparison.

And if every time they clash counts, zutara has that, too. If thematic parallels count, zutara has that and it's acknowledged more by the narrative than the Zuko/Aang parallels, which are honestly under-explored in the show.

A relationship arc is where the characters have a relationship that develops over the course of a story. Zuko and Katara have that because they start out as enemies, then potential allies, then reluctant (on Katara's part) allies while Zuko works to gain Katara's forgiveness. This is also worked into both their character arcs, Zuko's redemption arc and Katara's arc of gaining agency and resolving her conflict between idealism/cynicism. Then they spend the climax of both their stories together, defeating Azula, who acts as a foil to both of them, but in different ways.

Aang and Zuko don't have an arc. They are enemies for most of the show, then they become friends, but they don't have a relationship that develops or grows over time. Aang's "we could have been friends" speech establishes them as foils and parallels, but that idea is not developed enough in the story and it's not a moment of real connection between them like Zuko and Katara's moment in the caves when they talk to each other, rather than one monologuing to an unconscious other. Ditto for Zuko's monologue to an unconscious Aang at the North Pole. In order for it to be an arc, these ideas would need to be repeated throughout the story. Zuko does bring up Aang saying they could have been friends, but it's not a huge motivation for joining the gaang, just something he mentions off-handedly. It's significant that he remembered it, but the narrative does not give it the importance that is given to, for example, Zuko trying to get Katara's forgiveness.

And while Zuko obsesses over Aang, it's not Aang as a person that is important to him. Imagine the story if what Zuko needed to find to get home was not the Avatar, but like, a magical amulet. The story would be much the same.

Now, you COULD write a narrative where one character starts out as only important to another for what they represent, but then as they get to know the other as a person, they become important. But that isn't zukaang. Zuko doesn't get to know Aang before deciding to join him. His redemption arc happens largely independent of Aang and he develops a friendship with Aang as a result, but it's not an arc that develops with the narrative.

And the parallel scars thing is never actually acknowledged by the narrative. Zuko's chest scar is not even present in the most recent movie.

There is a lot that COULD have been done with zukaang, but honestly, the narrative drops the ball on it. And I'm saying that as someone who likes zukaang. There is a reason why zutara has become so insanely popular, and that's because their relationship is just that well-written.

There are a lot of points in the show where I think the writers wanted to go for a zukaang parallel, but were lazy with it. Like when Aang says he needs to regain his honor after Azula killed him. It's a clear attempt at a parallel. Except we don't see any of that. We don't see what that time that the world thought Aang was dead actually meant, we don't see Aang change because of this need to regain his honor. We see Zuko changing and growing, we see Katara changing and growing, and we see their effect on each other, but we don't see the same work put in for Aang. The show does a lot of telling instead of showing with his character. That's also a big reason why he's not as shippable.

And that's okay! Not all ships have to have strong thematic parallels. A lot of the appeal of zukaang is headcanon for me because the show doesn't do enough of the heavy lifting. Which is just as valid a way to engage in shipping. But I did object to you trying to compare zukaang and zutara in order to prop up zukaang in the first place.

Yes exaxtly theres alot that could happen based on threads that canon started and didnt flesh out that is litetally the bread and butter of fandom especially older fandoms where sticking close to canon has been more exhausted for fan content possibilities and so newer potentials start gaining traction rare pairs start gaining traction. Which you already see happening with Zukka being so popular. It makes sense since the og show ended over a decade ago.

As for themes yes it is there they put it in. You dont need a line telling you by the way zuko and and aang have matching scars created by Azula. Its the very definition of show dont tell. The movie is a leak its possible they would have added it for the official release and even if the current creators overlooking it doesnt mean it had no significance in the og series.

They dont have parallels when Zuko and Aangs backstories are told in the same episodes intercut with each other? Aang and Zuko weren't a strong connection when Zuko finds a way forward by finding out he has the potential to be good by showing his connection to the avatar? So what if was in a trance Zuko venting in the presence of the avatar isnt significant? The guy hes supposed to bring in?

Why are these themes and moments not significant to you?

And if they arent to you and are to me then perhaps you might consider that what you consider weaker themes that dont count as significant might not be as cut and dry as you label them.

But lets ignore all that

Cuz none of my post is really about the true canon potential for any ship or even whats important in canon

But the fandom potential for it and in fandom Aang and Zukos set up is imo the type that typically attracts alot of shippers.

True it wouldnt really while the show was airing not when it lacks the intensity something like Zutara would be more popular then but 16 years later?

Yes definetly now you are looking for good potentials good set ups that didnt get explored as much as you would like or even entertaining set ups that didnt get explored as much as you would like. That would typically be a kind of ship that would take off in fandom zuko aang i mean. Its why imo Zukka took off in 2020 6 years ago and is still popular.

But despite those trends Zukaang had it didnt also take off and imo it was cuz aang just wasnt as shippable then. Tbh he still isnt now but he is more shippable than he was in 2020.

The connections and themes you are overlooking as not that deep or not that strong because its not followed through on is also true for zuko Katara you dont get to see them bouce off each other after ba sing se until Zuko joins up with them in the last season but he's not spending all that time with her.

But having one off episodes with them there is not these seasons of build up between katara and zuko there. Before ba sing se the stuff between Zuko and katara should then be as shallow as the stuff between zuko and aang. Its just all a part of Zukos obsession to get to the avatar then.

But zuko has one obsession for 3 seasons and its the avatar not Katara how is that the basis of shipping?

As for canon ....this wasnt about canon it was about the kinda thing that appeals to people in fandom especially long running fandoms.

I said Zukaang has just as much potential in terms of the kinda trends that happen in fandom that people latch on to.

Not zukaang as just as much potential to be a canon couple. But that was never the conversation and yet somehow the conversation keeps coming here. Its completely irrelevant kataang is already canon and unless you ship it and want to create content about it that doesnt matter in the fan content made.

What is popular in fandom and what was teased the most in canon are not always the same thing over time especially a fandom that isn't as dominantly focused on one ship.

For example supernatural fandom was super into destiel it kinda defined alot of that fan content. But MCU didnt have the same level of commitment to one ship so over time the top ships fluctuated. That doesnt mean of course that the old popular ships dissappeared but new ones entered the picture and shared that spotlight more. Including many ships that didnt have hope of becoming canon.

Atla is more like MCU than Supernatural. But I think with even more potential for fluctuation.

Like we are having 2 seperate conversations im talking fandom trends in a old fandom that is no longer soley taking inspo from just canon but rather maybe from other parts of fandom. And you are talking about potential in the original source material.

For the last few years on Ao3 Zutara and Zukka have been basically top 2 contenders for ships with very close numbers. Canon wise arguably it doesnt make sense for Zukka to be that popular. They dont have the basis Zutara has. Not to shade Zukka or anything I love the ship. But it was a ship that started on fun and vibes not looking and the canon super closely.

But that doesnt matter because this isnt canon. Fandom wise tho zukka is a popular dynsmic that gets shippers excited especially in older fandoms when looking back to source material all the time is less popular. It is unsurprising it fits the trends.

But so does Zuko and Aang but they didnt take off aka the entire point of my original post. Not in the sense of oh no why is Zukaang not liked its my my fav ship ( its not actually) but in the sense of its interesting that its not when typically a ship like that is liked lets examine

Why are these themes and moments not significant to you?

Well, because Zuko's ancestral connection to Roku being a motive for him being good is one of the weakest aspects of his redemption. At that point, Zuko had already known that he had made the wrong decision and was on his way to redemption. The rest could have happened very easily without his connection to Roku. In fact, many fans feel that it cheapens Zuko's redemption because it makes it about Zuko's innate goodness instead of what Iroh had been telling him about how he needs to choose what's right (a motif that is also present in what Zuko says to Katara in the caves, and a much stronger theme in Zuko's redemption.)

The parallels between Aang and Zuko in "The Storm" are also undercut by Aang not having to face actual consequences for people blaming him for running away (because Katara shields him from them) while Zuko actually ends up learning a lesson in that same episode and changing for the better. This is what I mean when I say the show doesn't follow through with the parallels it sets up between Aang and Zuko.

And while fandom is about possibilities, there's also much more to work with when the characters already have a well-written connection, and that's one reason zutara is more popular. You keep saying you want to know why zutara is more popular, yet you don't accept the answer.

Perhaps YOU might consider that what you think about these ships is not cut and dry, and zutara is more popular because it just has much more potential?

Watching people try to defend Zutara is like watching flat earthers defend their theories. (seriously though you guys need to move on this is not healthy.)

Wait, you're gonna compare us to flat earthers, yet leave something like THIS in the tags? Zuko is more likely to marry SOKKA??? LMFAO

This is why the atla fandom can't have nice things. I'm taking the zutara tag away from you. Go to your room and think about what you've done.

ROFL Katara and Aang have like 95 grandkids and people are still convinced that Zutara could magically fall out of the sky. We have confirmation that Sokka thinks Zuko is attractive.

That’s more than zutara has gotten in the span of 20+ years ROFL. Besides I was half joking when I said. At least I spread false info with articles about how “Bryke really did want Zutara to happen the network just wouldn’t let em!” Ship zutara all you want, but stop clinging onto the hope that zutara will be canon. It will never happen.

darklinaforever

I don't know where you got your nonsense about Zutara fans being convinced that Zutara will one day be canon. You're making something up that doesn't exist, just so you can annoy us and feel entitled. 😑

And if you want to play the "who has more material" game between Sukka and Zutara... the entire original show have more romantic subtext for Zutara than Sukka ever did (simply because Zutara was a possibility considered in the writers' room, and therefore there are some traces of it in the show itself)? And actually, Sukka never had any romantic subtext at all in the original show?

@sokkastyles

darklinaforever

Like... She is crazy at this point.

Oh yeah... It's definitely a crime that the Zutaras don't care about the opinions of a guy who openly bullied people in public for making Zutara fan art. And It's also certain that Bryke, who isn't the only one in the writers' room, will know precisely about subtext he didn't write and don't like!

@sokkastyles

@lubila

Watching people try to defend Zutara is like watching flat earthers defend their theories. (seriously though you guys need to move on this is not healthy.)

Making this post gave me enough entertainment to last me a thousand lifetimes. My skin is clear, the laundry is complete and I got my paycheck. I will tell this story to my children's children. This will be my legacy.

Honestly, the saddest statement to make here. Like if this is the thing that satisfies you then I do pity you, as it is pretty sad, but then again, since thos is supposed to last you a thousand lifetimes then good for you I guess?

#the owl house #witches duels #battle witches #toh tournament #witches battles #my polls #toh

Um. Okay. That's really your problem, now isn't it. I made a joke about an overrated ship and you guys are over here acting like I insulted the pope. So yeah, this is peak entertainment for me, and you're making it 10 times easier. You can feel sorry me all you want, because I never will. I'm not sorry for what I said, and if anything, you guys have proven my point; I made stupid post about Zutara fans fight tooth and nail to prove their ship is relevant...and you guys are doing exactly that. Also, how many times to have to respond to you guys for you figure out that I literally couldn't give a rats behind about what you say to or about me. You guys are the ones who decided to make a mountain out of molehill over a tumblr post made by a person with 0 followers. How could I NOT find this train wreck of a circus amusing.

aquaaquila

What you did is bait and troll and take pleasure in people being rightfully upset. It's not our problem when you're being a dick. Would you like me to come into your house and call your loved one ugly? I doubt that. And you downplaying shipping doesn't mean you're right, it means you're a fun police masquerading as a jester. Shippers want to have fun, yet you're opposed to it for "reasons". "You can feel sorry for me all you want, because I never will", and that's supposed to be a flex? A power move of sorts? Like you're telling me you have 0 followers and 0 people in your corner, and that's somehow a good thing, for you specifically? We're not making a mountain out of the anthill; we're in the middle of a never-ending shipping war caused by jerks like you, and you may not care but it's only more pathetic on your part because we actually care, we love what we stand for and we do have a point, and someone trying to get attention by putting us down doesn't actually phase us, if anything it only gives us opportunity to flex and prove how antis are beyond stupid and childish validating us, while the only validation you get is from someone noticing you, which screams desperate. No one likes trolls, and we gladly will make a spectacle out of you, and it's not just Zuatara shippers who would do that. You can act nonchalant all you want, but without our attention, you clearly have nothing better going on in your life, and it's obvious it won't sustain you for long.

For someone not giving a rat's ass, you gave me a whole 4 paragraphs. Like, you genuinely can't expect me to believe that you seemingly don't care while putting this much effort.

"None of this matters." Quite the opposite, if none of it mattered, it would never last this long, but it matters to people, including you, because you're here this invested.

You talk about having 0 influence, but I don't think you even understand how influence works, as anyone can affect it. Many people who have influence are just vocal and loud, and that's how they got their attention and influence, despite having nothing of value to give. You can say you have 0 followers, but by putting yourself out there, you can gain people to fight for your cause, or, as proven in this post, against it too.

"Why are you paying attention to me after I specifically made you pay attention to me?" You think you're slick?

What we have to gain by putting you down and calling you out is how many people will see your behavior and condemn it, and by default associate it with communities that explicitly act this way. People know you ship Zukka, so they will call Zukka shippers as bad as you, because they know there's a connection and therefore association. This further fuels the conflict, making your side look ridiculous to the point that some people will try to prove you wrong just out of spite. I mean, heck, I don't even bother arguing for Zutara, I'm here to call your ass out.

And it's harder to act nonchalant when you have the world against you, as sooner or later, the people who seemingly were on your side would be discouraged from following you further, and those who oppose you would feel even more vindicated at every step you slip up. You get what you deserve; you have to deal with the world's pettiness, so expect it to return to you, rather than being defensive about it.

We're not going to be quiet because people like you shouldn't feel able to silence us. After all, you can't do that. For every loud, stupid line you throw, we will throw back louder and more meaningful lines to counter it, especially in times when ignorant people prosper at the expense of everyone else, and especially invade even our escapism spaces.

You aren't sorry for anything, no need to lie. You don't have to spin this around as if you became enlightened by this experience. You don't have to act as if you would fix your mistakes, as you would do without responding. You don't even need to say how you would relate to us not believing you and calling you an arsehole after acting as one. You came to be mean and pretend to act as if you're unbothered by people slapping back. For the record, it's not that difficult to get into debates, and not getting into any for 10 years is a choice and not a circumstance. What you did just do is vile, to put it simply, and you downplaying it means nothing, as many wicked people will downplay their own actions, and those who do hold them accountable couldn't care less about that, because everyone will tell you it's just wrong.

I shall make a post officially ending this tournament soon. It's been a fun ride while it lasted, but all good things must come to an end

If Amity and Luz tie, Luz takes victory as she won their personal duel; If Amity and Hunter tie, Amity takes victory as she won their personal duel; If Luz and Hunter tie, this specifically depends on Amity's placement in the votes, if she's ahead both of them Luz wins, if she's behind both of them, Hunter wins, this is due to Luz and Hunter having almost a tie in their personal battle.

Ok, the battle has been concluded, and as per the rules, due to Amity and Hunter tying, with Amity ultimately winning the match-up between these two, and Luz coming short in this one, the winner is

AMITY BLIGHT!

Due to this, for the time being, she will be placed second in the rankings of the tournament, with Hunter following as third and Luz following as fourth.

However, if in the match-up between Hunter and Willow, Hunter does manage to earn a victory, this will prompt another duel, which will be considered the final battle between Willow, Amity, and Hunter.

If they tie, there will be another battle royale between Luz, Hunter, and Willow as a last chance for Luz to properly earn her spot, as even I have to admit, it does feel like Luz was kind of robbed here.

If Hunter loses, however, the ranking will be finished and the battle between Willow and Amity will be reblogged and re-named as the final battle, with the score being the same = meaning Willow already winning.

Nonetheless, I still expect a clean battle, no ralling up people to vote a specific way, I want people to vote genuinely in the next battle, I will try to post tomorrow.
