With the new Avatar content coming out, the presentation for the LOK content feels very hollow since it's only focusing on Korra and Asami. Like the cover for Paterns in Time only feature the two of them, despite saying that the anthology is going to have everyone. Wouldn't it make more sense for it to be the whole Krew to be there.
This feels especially prevalent with the Avatar Legnds game. With the Last Airbender, all of the gaang, (Katara, Sokka, Suki, Toph, Zuko) gets to be NPC's . But for LOK it's only Asami and Tenzin. That's kinda feels like a slap in the face that Mako and Bolin wasn't included, heck Lin could've been a NPC. Also with art cards that came out it's only Korra and Asami.
I honestly feel is Korrasami wasn't teased in Book 3 and 4, Asami would probably fade in the background and wouldn't be exculvisley included for future LOK projects.
Sorry for subjecting you to this rant, but I kinda hate how unbalance it is for LOK compared to ATLA.
Quite honestly I'm pretty sure all of us know that any future Avatar Projects will be about Korrasami and maybe poking fun at Mako and Tenzin's relationships. What I'm annoyed about is that they told us that all of the major characters would be included when it was about Korra and Asami only.
As for the AtLA part I'm mildly sure that the fandom only stan Zuko and by extension Zukka and Zutara. Anyone else isn't represented that well.
I agree on the Asami part, but to be honest I didn't see any part where Korra and Asami was teased apart from that letter. Which could genuinely be platonic, and I thought they were making efforts to show us that Korra and Asami were friends. You know, after the whole Mako fiasco.
TLDR: We really shouldn't expect anything from Avatar Studios and future Avatar Projects if we're not fans of Korrasami.
What makes it funnier is how the other descriptions for the Legend NPCs for the pre-generated adventures. Like how its say for Rangi she's the bodyguard and companion of Kyoshi. For Zuko he's the Fire Lord seeking peace. Asami is the CEO of Future Industries. Basic description of their roles.
Then for Mako, the writer is just thristing for him. It just hilarious of the unintentional bias when you compare them.
The Avatar Legends writing room, probably:
"Hey, boss. We have to describe Mako in this NPC list for the premade adventure, but we only have one sentence and he's such a complex character. What should we say?" "Hmmmm well he's really good looking just talk about how sexy he is." "...Really? Shouldn't we mention his selflessness because of his actions to save the city from a weapon of mass destruction?" "No talk about how people faint because of how hot he is." "Uhhh what about his complicated past as a former triad now working for the police...? Or his connections to some of the most powerful people in the world?" "No way talk about how he never shows emotion." "Wait what? He shows emotion, he's very expressive—" "JUST GIVE ME THAT, I'LL WRITE IT!"
@buckybarnesss Tell me about it. Especially since there is so much double standards of have fans will praise Korra and demonize Mako. Like her borderline domestic abusive actions in peacekeepers. They just focus on that Mako told the president her plans, ignoring he basically backed him into a corner with that, with the subtle threats. But no he just bad boyfriend for not supporting his girlfriend when she goes to perform federal illegal acts.
another day, another reddit post i gotta defend my boy mako in.
Since this was technically discussed with you about the HFM, I thought to ask a bit more on the hypothetical of Mako's death. If he did died when he destroyed the mech, do you feel that Korra would still be willing to forgive Kuvira (excluding all the crap from ROTE)?
Interesting question.
My inititial response would be like ‘yeah I think Korra would be more pissed off at Kuvira.’
But thinking about it, I think Kuvira and Korra would still reach an understanding. I think sometimes people miss that Korra doesn’t really offer forgiveness, she offers her understanding and empathy. In a way, pity. This is why I like the ending of the show despite not liking Kuvira much. Korra has grown enough to see herself in Kuvira and that’s why she reaches out. She says what Kuvira has done was wrong, but sympathises with her. So I can see Korra offering this to Kuvira even if Mako dies, even if it’s angrier and colder.
Though I think this hypothetical proves why having Mako dying would be a bad idea. Because Korra talks to Kuvira and then she’s told ‘oh yeah she killed Mako.’ I think it would force something of a different response by Korra after the original surrender by having her acknowledge Mako’s death, or the writers would have to come up with something different entirely, which means a reworking of the whole ending. Because in the show she doesn’t hear that everyone is okay until after the speech with Kuvira. So they either treat Mako’s death as an afterthought to the scene or they re-work the whole thing entirely which means they likely drop the Korra/Kuvira comparisons. Which means reworking the show and themes and this is why I think Mako’s death is just a very messy way to end the show in general.
But say in a hypothetical version where Korra learns of Mako’s death before she confronts Kuvira, I could see a version of what we get in the show, but colder and angrier. Because I still think that Korra after everything she learnt in the show would still want to understand Kuvira even if she’s pissed.

It was Azula who told him that oranges are eaten by the peel.
zuko always thought you were supposed to eat oranges with the skin on, biting into them like you would an apple and just eating it really quickly before the juice spills everywhere. one of katara’s love languages is preparing fruit for ppl. the first time she peels an orange & hands it to zuko, he’s just like “ew......why is it naked....”
