@2dragonfruit @GloveAcademia @JordykJordan Nah that’s a crazy jump. The dragons are very clearly sentient and considered the “originators of firebending”. They ARE mystically advanced god like entities. There’s no way they could “tame” the dragons to make them subservient. That’s WHY they killed them

@GloveAcademia @JordykJordan Status, royalty, and power. They could've had an army of tamed dragon in their rank but they killed them for sports. They don't give af about their own people but themselves. What makes you think they would want to teach lighting just because it destroy everything when they

Continuing to prove the point that all modern Avatar lore is just lame and unimaginative ideas made to try and justify other lame and unimaginative ideas.

@lost_caveman79 Year for time when cold leaves, goes hot, before become cold again.

what year mean

@AceHarlem299840 Nah explain this shit for me. How? This location was already a mixed bag of cultures, and had been so for 100 years. The people there wanted autonomy for their actions. There’s no segregation going no, no “promised land from 3000 years ago”, what could POSSIBLY be seen that way

This is zionist logic lmao

@DanHarmone All three of which show immense power rivaling the destructive capability of Aangs “uncontrolled power” but still controlled. They intentionally weakened the avatar state, so that tension can still exist when the mc has control over the “win” state.

@DanHarmone It can be both intentional and a downgrade my man. In the og series we have three different situations showcasing the power of a “realized” avatar state. This is 1. Roku decimating the temple. 2. Kyoshi separating an island from a continent. And 3. Aangs final battle

As i keep saying. If the Avatar State feels different, that’s intentional, not a downgrade. In Aang’s era, it looks terrifying because he can’t control it 💀 It’s a last-resort survival mechanism that overrides him, which is why it feels explosive and chaotic. By Korra’s time, the point is that she learns control earlier, so it’s used deliberately instead of erupting. That doesn’t make it child’s play, it just means it’s not randomly nuking everything around her. Controlled power will always look less dramatic than uncontrolled power. Thats just presentation. And the show goes out of its way to prove it’s not a free win anyway. She gets neutralized by Amon, matched by Unalaq, broken by Zaheer, and pushed by Kuvira. If it was really child’s play, those fights wouldn’t even exist. Also funny bringing up the upcoming Aang era stuff like it proves anything, if anything, that just reinforces that different Avatars use the same power differently depending on their journey. That’s been the point since day one. People just seem to miss this

@GoldenGordon13 @CandyyAshes They say Christian ideals cause it’s “good vs evil” like “Jesus vs Satan”.

@GoldenGordon13 @CandyyAshes Then it’s just Zoroastrianism. There’s no “yin yang” mixed into it except for a minimal amount of aesthetics. Also yes evil is a “depravity” but there’s also an existence who’s whole point is to spread depravity and corrupt others (Satan) which is where the idea comes from

Them existing to christianize the spirit world and avatar myths is like how the Dragon's Dogma anime removed the buddhism themes for the seven deadly sins

@ATenaciousDad @CandyyAshes Vaatu was free from Raava for like a week and caused strife, destruction and corrupted spirits, invoking actual war between humans and spirits. What are you talking about

@CandyyAshes It's literally ying and yang

@IntraHikari @CandyyAshes If it was Yin and Yang, they wouldn’t have made Vaatu unabashedly evil. His “chaos” would represent creative, creation and change. Compared to Raava whose “order” should’ve been “stability, unchanging, stagnant” rather than “good”.

@IntraHikari @CandyyAshes Dog, no. Vaatu is unabashedly evil. He needs to lose in every fight so the world isn’t destroyed (they said so themselves) and when he WAS free, his whole thing was causing chaos (bad) and corrupting spirits into their EVIL forms.

@NMarine77 @TwinkLit42 That’s not to mention that a general “sex god” in modern day is usually about “free love” rather than Slaanesh’s whole “sex till death” and “sex murder” thing

@NMarine77 @TwinkLit42 The problem is you already know what they said and still continued on the wrong track. The point is that Slaanesh is a god of “excess pleasure”. When they think he’s a “sex god” they see it in this “happy fun la la time” when it’s not.

Corny as fuck but yes Slaanesh is actually terribly bad and no she is not a sex god can we move past that as a community

@Analogs_Hell @MasonProOffcial No, the original punish line was entirely around an incident where Ashley said it and it almost sounded like it. They’re calling back to what happening prior, rather than making fun of the fact the word itself sounds like the n word

@MasonProOffcial The joke here is that he made an unsavory joke. When he made the joke, the punchline was entirely around it sounding like he said a slur

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t it hypocritical to get mad at Micheal for making n word jokes then make jokes about him saying the n word

@naMnaSYt I hate this idea. No Aang didn’t “take stolen land” (ignoring the fact the earth kingdom WERE the original conquerors) the earth king GLADLY gave them the land, cause he was a huge Aang fan as shown in the og series

fairly effective opening its kinda boring that for the intro its just different Avatars it also feels weird that Aang and Zuko took stolen land and was like "it's actually for EVERYONE now" instead of just giving back to who they stole it from and finding somewhere else

@MrOvis_ A little off topic but I HATE the watsonian answers for this Doylist post. OP is saying he hates what the WRITERS did to metal bending, that he wishes they kept it the way it originally was cause it felt better. He’s not asking about the IN UNIVERSE reason why it changed

This scene is a good example of my issue with metalbending in Korra. In the original series, Toph had to be in physical contact with the metal, because it was much harder to bend than actual earth, because she was bending the impurities within it. Meanwhile, the metal bending in Korra is basically the opposite, they actually bend with far more precision than anyone bends earth with, which doesn't make any sense. It's kinda in the same vein as the lavabending, where instead of applying any actual logic to it, they treated the bending as pure sorcery. Korra doesn't learn it from anyone, she just has it, because she has more Bending Midiclorians than everyone else, I guess.

@Emz_Cast I understand the sentiment. The lighting could 100% be improved to look much better, this guy just overdid it so it doesn’t look great

Am I the only one thinks thinks this looks... bad?

@naMnaSYt Very much disagree. Ty Lee is far from an awful person, being forced to follow Azula despite the fact she never wanted to. She grapples with the fear of retribution if she disagrees with Azula. Now she finally has a chance to turn her life around and get out of Azulas oppresion

I have mixed feelings on this I like Ty Lee, and the Kyoshi Warriors learning her fighting style and Chi Blocking makes them more of a problem but, Ty Lee is never really a good person. She only betrayed Azula because she didn't want Mai to get killed

@aangdaily While I agree for the most part, I do want to say it’s really only a terrifying possession due to Aangs inexperience with it. I certainly agree it’s not something you use whenever, like a good “ultimate” it should only be saved until it’s dire.

The worst writing decision they made in recent stories was reducing the Avatar State to just a power-up. What made it compelling before was how it felt like a terrifying possession overtaking the Avatar’s body, not something you’d pop out after every minor inconvenience

@r_blankk @kidomaki_real You know what, that’s fair. That’s my bad for not understanding it was playing on what they said

@MailBlas2 @kidomaki_real because harmonic convergence also boosted korra's opponent and korra's oppinent was unalaq AND vaatu, while korra was just korra so similar to aang vs ozai, harmonic convergence was a bigger boost for korra's opponent

She just needed the boost from Harmonic convergence in the literal spirit world, and the Deus ex machina known as Jinora. Aside from that she did it all by herself, of course.

@KestrelAspen @Dreezy_carv I can’t believe she’d say something like this. What a monster

@Dreezy_carv tbh people forget inspect element exists

Some of you would beliave a tweet saying "I AM AN EVIL AND I LOVE KICKING BABIES FOR FUN MWAH HAHAHA"
