He's just started season 2. I've only watched the first season so I will have to bow out of reading the thread from now on to avoid spoilers. Shame 'cos some of his posts here are golden.

It's a bit disappointing to see fanservice creep into this show. When it started Katara was fully clothed but now she's wearing that tight midriff outfit while water bending. Also that other girl from the circus who is with Azula, her breasts are too big.

Nobody has EVER said that sentence about ANY woman with any honesty in the history of human civilization. Now I know you just say stuff to see who's paying attention. I'm hip to your game, Slick.

O___o whaaaaaa????

It's not like they have Bikinis!? Katara is wearing the equivalent to a swimsuit in their world. She only wears that outfit when they are training in water. (her outfit has straps! She's even wearing leggings! it's like the most modest swimsuit of all time!)

what do you want her to wear? XD her regular clothes will get wet.

Ty Lee is a girl and not all girls have A cups. (and they aren't even big to me!)
It's not like she has a whole in her shirt like Power Girl.

omg...I can't believe we are even talking about this XD

I was glad this was an American cartoon instead of an anime because it meant virtually no fanservice and the female characters wouldn't simply be boobs or eye candy. Had Avatar been an anime there would have been a beach episode every 5-6 episodes and Katara would constantly be in her bathing attire.

You watch shows like Fairy Tail which is in the action/shonen genre and all the female characters are used for fanservice constantly showing off their boobs. Its really distracting and puts me off from watching it.

With the intro of Azula and the two friends I wouldn't be surprised if this was anime if they would have lesbian crushes on each other. That's how anime writers work. Its to satisfy fanboy cravings for their, "waifu's" or "husbando's" that you see people on 4chan and 2ch raving about.

Thank god Avatar is an American cartoon only drawn in anime-style. At least we don't have to deal with any lolicon moe fanservice in this show, especially with Toph and Katara on the main cast.

......I don't even know how to respond to this.

You are aware that not all anime is like how you described it, right? Because judging by your post, you apparently don't have a clue.

Most anime outside of toyetic kids shows is like this. Virtually any shonen and shoujo anime has fanservice, let alone the more adult oriented shows.

I'm not saying not all anime has fanservice. I'm saying that not every single anime focuses on it solely on it and not on anything else like character development, story, etc.

In Serpents Path was that the first lesbian kiss ever in a kids cartoon? I know Toph kissed Suki on the cheek thinking it was Sokka, but still...a girl kissed another girl on the cheek and it wasn't just a, "hello" kind of kiss.

Man now I know what people are saying when they say this show broke boundaries. I bet that created a new ship right there, I dare not such for fanart of it though, I know what I would find if I did.

Shounen. It's aimed at a male audience, so depending on the age they're aiming it at, they'll have women made up to be really pretty or whatever or just testosterone induced "I'M A MAN!!! WE FIGHT!" type show. A Shoujo series would be the opposite, like Sailor moon or whatever. Or a show like Kuroshitsuji where all of the make characters are made to look incredibly handsome. Shoujo is aimed a female audience.

Do you really enjoy generalizing? By the sounds of it, I could see this show in the same genre or style as Tales of Symphonia or any if those Adventure/Fantasy type styles.

That aside I still don't know what moe or lolicon is....

Trust me, you don't want to know. Those two words is everything that's wrong with anime today.

I don't get it Cybs, you complain about fan service yet your the one who notices it the most on these forums. I don't think any one would have noticed the April fan service in the new series if it wasn't for you brining it up each time

Heck I know I don't but I don't go looking for it like you do.

You can't be serious. Do you really believe even for a second Nickelodeon would allow something like that to be aired if what you said were even true? (Which it's not, BTW.)

And besides, it's obvious it was played as a joke.

I've never seen any other cartoon where two girls of similar age kissed on the cheek that wasn't anime. This isn't like a mother kissing her daughter on the cheek or something like that, it was two similar-aged girls with one kissing another on the cheek, even if she thought it was Sokka.

I'm surprised they got away with it. Also Sokka being so horny that he kisses Suki twice despite still clearly missing the water princess who died, lol.

It's not a lesbian kiss if the characters aren't lesbians.

Holy sh*t this thread is bad.

Ty Lee doesn't have "big breasts".

Not every anime is like that. You ever watch Cowboy Bebop?
