RANT - Kataang

Didn’t we see enough of Katara kicking ass and taking names in ATLA to know she’s not a push over? Like she literally stands up for everything KNOW MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCE!

So why in hell would she be okay with Aang ignoring TWO of their children’s complete existence once he found out they had an airbending son? Why would she ever be okay with him teaching his culture to only ONE of their children and ignoring the other two because they’re not airbenders?!

She healed an entire village of strangers in a matter of days, so why would she let 2/3 of her own kids live most of their lives never feeling the love of their father?! She had to have noticed, unless with this character transformation she had to have between ATLA and LOK, she became an “An ignorance is bliss,” type person.

One of my main grievances with Kataang is that Aang doesn’t seem like the type of person to value the same things Katara does.

Katara was raised in a village where everyone is like family, even if it was torn apart by war. There’s a strong sense of community that Katara was raised with that (Aang never seems to try to understand) she would ideally want her children to have too, ya know seeing as that it’s kind of apart of her culture.

In Aang’s case he was raised to disconnect from the world, to achieve spiritual enlightenment.

And I’m not saying that they couldn’t‘ve worked regardless of the difference in their cultures and upbringings and beliefs, but the thing is, they didn’t.

Mainly the if not completely because Aang never made an attempt to establish anything resembling a real familial unit with Katara, basically just stayed around until she popped out an Airbender. (Which I really don’t like because she was treated like some trophy wife to give birth to airbenders and that’s it! Like really—we could’ve had Fire Lady Katara changing the fucking WORLD, but they gave us THAT!)

You really think after Katara had a parent murdered by the fire nation and the other went off to fight in the war against the fire nation (both at a young age) that she would want anything less than a full family unit for her kids?

You think she would be okay with Aang taking away one of her babies to train in the ways of his culture and not want their other children to be there too?

You think “sit up straight and talk clearly,” mama bear Katara would want anything but that?!

If you do you clearly didn’t watch the same show I did.

I animated Zuko and Katara just like...being bored. Relatable content.

LISTEN UP. THIS AMAZING ARTIST HAS BEEN DOING ATLA FANART IN THE STYLE OF GHIBLI, AND A BUNCH OF PEOPLE HAVE REPOSTED HER ART WITHOUT CREDIT.

HER NAME IS MINCHO AND INSTA IS @THEMINCHODAN

Go follow and give all your support please, she's having a hard time.

Thank you!

(Also zutara × mononoke is what I didn't know I needed)

Zuko: you rise with the moon, i rise with the sun

The ATLA writers: wow great line, but let’s go with the airbender

so reading asoiaf source blogs who posted numerous amount of content about how daenerys is just as mad as viserys, how viserys should be king instead of her, how viserys was the victim in selling Daenerys and him dying, how she’s a targaryen which means she’s crazy, how entitled she is, how her story doesn’t matter because she’s barren, how if you’re a fan of her that means you have internalized racism / are a racist yourself, how she ‘fucked up big time’ in essos and should stay far away from westeros, how her story is rooted in racism and how she’s a colonizer; it makes sense to me now why there are so many people on here who hate her and actually believe these things. I mean, if an asoiaf source blog reblogs / posts content like this, then surely it must be true right?
