I second what Titan said. Avatar the Last Air bender is one of the best cartoons ever. I missed the first season because I thought it would be another garbage cartoon and one day caught a second season episode that my younger brother was watching and was instantly hooked. I will go to my grave disappointed that Katara and Toph action figures were never made.

I don't follow this show, but online I keep seeing this huge following for a lesbian pairing between Korra and this slightly older woman with long black hair? Is there actual implied lesbianism in this show or is just fans wishing?

I know Korra had a boyfriend in the first season but they broke up or something?

Platonic friendship between two women. Unthinkable in certain brains...

They do push it a lot in the show...but it's just genuine friendship.

That's what I figured. I was looking up Korra one day and all I kept seeing is these lesbian posts and picture galleries pairing up Korra and the other woman.

I figured Nick wouldn't have the balls to make Korra into a lesbian, even though this show does push boundaries. I can't see them going that far.

Yeah, Nick has already gotten away with so much when it comes to TMNT & Korra compared to other networks!

The funny thing is that the actors do actually consider it a legitimate ship so we'll see where it goes.

If Korra becomes the first lesbian main character in a kids cartoon, it will be quite shocking. I honestly cannot think of any lesbian characters in American produced cartoons, only in anime.

She wouldn't necessarily be a lesbian, she could very well be bisexual.
Not all women in relationships with women are lesbians.

Its a cartoon, I doubt they're really thinking of sexual orientation. Even though Korra liked a guy she could easily realize she's a lesbian.

That's how it works for a lot of girls in real life. They start off with boyfriends when they're younger because that's what "society or their parents tell them to do," but then as they get older they realize they actually like women and the only reason they had boyfriends is because it was expected of them from society when they were younger.

There's a reason you read news stories online about that lesbian couple that was banned from a High School prom simply because they were lesbian. Its like in High School if it isn't a hetereosexual relationship you're not allowed to be together.

It's good to know Cubed has become such an expert when comes to females and how their brains work in fiction, media, or real life.

I'm just glad he's here.
I mean, otherwise how would I know what life is like for a lot of queer women?

Wow really they push it???? The season 3 finale was the only time I have ever seen them have anything that resemble a friendship. IMO.

Oh I'm not offended by what he said. It's just unintentionally hilarious when he speaks of a series he clearly doesn't watch and pokes his head regarding a certain shipping and assumes it's a serious case of lesbianism.

Um...no.
On all accounts no.

For the record, I'd like to point out that it wasn't the Feminist that implied that "all men are the same."

If you want to attack somebody go back to high school, I was trying to lighten the mood with a few jokes. I never said Feminist imply men are all the same. I said that jokingly.

It's such a popular pairing that even none fans have heard of it I guess

I wish he wouldn't keep acting like it's canon though, at least watch the series before opening your mouth about that.

I loved the season final, Bolin lava bending was one of my favorite moments.
The fights were pretty good this season and the humor, romance didn't feel too forced like the last two did.

Boy was I glad they got rid of that awful love triangle, they shouldn't have added that Mako x Asami bits in season two, that really messed up the new Team. I don't want Mako x Korra to become canon in the end, just doesn't make sense now in my opinion. They should just develop the friendship, too bad we don't have too many episodes for this series, either way though. If they have to have Mako x Korra happen, no other love triangles please.

Bolin x Opal was left up in the air, I assume they'll continue developing it in season four, shey'll be Bolin's Suki in a way.

Did any one else really love the music for season three? Some one uploaded it on YouTube, I can't stop listening to it

I can't wait for season four, too bad it will take forever like the past seasons did

Finally finished Book 3. I thought it was a pretty good season and a step up from Book 2.

Anyone else have a problem with how powerful they made Zaheer? I mean, he had no bending powers until Korra opened the portal to the spirit world but then he was able to unlock secrets that only one other Airbender could do. Why was he under such heavy guard originally when he had no bending powers? He could've been in a normal prison.
