3 professors forced to share a hotel room during a travel to a wizard expo ... due to budget cut because Hogwarts have sustained yet another annual Voldemort-related disaster( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Oh boy glad I found someone who agrees (9-10 years before me haha). Rewatched Korra last month and this just struck me so much - "I needed to suffer because otherwise I wouldn't be able to have empathy for people like Kuvira".... PLEASE. Did we watch the same show? Did we watch the same Korra have empathy for Tahno in Book 1 (who spent his whole screentime being a jerk to her and her friends) AND Tarrlok (the one who bloodbent and kidnapped her)????
Sure, she did need some character development in becoming more spiritual, less impulsive and think of others more (it's almost as if she was kept locked her entire life and everything was served to her at a silver platter so she never really learnt to take responsibility and guess what? The whole book 1 arc is pretty much about that - she grows so much in mostly beautiful and organic way)
Her torture in the end of B3 doesn't feel like genuine wish to explore traumatic experiences it almost feels like a device writers used just to break Korra for no reason other than stupid belief that misery = maturity. Her healing isn't complete (Zuko got 3 seasons with 20 eps each (after 3 years have passed in universe) and Korra (the main bloody character) got barely 14 eps), she never truly regains her fieriness and fierceness and by the end is basically subdued version of herself (Zuko on the other hand did get to tame his DESTRUCTIVE anger but was still deeply passionate and fierce person).
Also, while Zuko was given dignity in the scene of his scarring, Korra is shown in complete agony, camera lingers on her painful expressions and muscle movements to the point it stops feeling like the show is doing it to communicate the feeling of pain/despair and starts feeling like it's straight up exploitative...
bryankonietzko that’s great but would you care to address you felt the need to put korra through hell and high water for her to “learn compassion” as if she hasn’t been remarkably selfless since book 1?
I don't know if it's an unpopular take but I cannot stand Toph's characterization in the ATLA comics. They stripped Toph of all her personality traits expect for sassy earthbender. She's downright rude in some instances. I won't even begin to talk about her erasure - one of the fandom's preferred characters and yet she is barely more than a side character (even in her designated comic she has to share it with Aang)
Where is the Toph that cried because she missed her mother and felt remorse for abandoning her during the war? Where is the Toph that comforted Zuko during the Ember Island Play intermission? Where is the Toph that canonically loves and protects her friends, thinks of them as a family and wants to carry out their friendship into another life?
Yes, Toph is confident, arrogant at times and sassy. But she never was rude to her loved ones; never disregarded differenf cultures nor did she ever lack spirituality. It's also hysterical that during The Rift - after Toph passes out from saving multiple people from being crushed by metal - not one of her friends remembers or seems to care about her. NOT ONE!
Most characters were done dirty in these comics. Katara and Zuko might be the biggest victims of being substantially OOC but I rarely see people talk about how they completely disregarded Toph's character arc or her personality.
One day I'll write a whole dissertation of Toph's portrayal in the comics (and how her relationship with Aang was handled)
You can have a badass female character without stripping her from her humility and vulnerability.
“Eren ,Take your hand off her。”

school for vampires art 🙏🙏🙏🙏 love this show sm + i was laughing my ass off while drawing stoker and leechy as goofy emojis
This!!! I love Barty and Regulus as much as the next person but I am so sick of Regulus being portrayed as the smartest man alive while Barty can't tie his shoelaces...
This guy is the reason GoF happened, perfect impersonator, strong wizard despite years of imprisonment (so strong he was able to trick one of the most powerful objects in-universe and successfully do all magic Moody - one of the strongest aurors could) and a master manipulator
He is literally the polar opposite of the idiot the fandom portrays him as.
