Plot Update 10 March 2021

A year has passed since Fire Lord Zuko ascended the throne, and it seems like trouble is brewing between the Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom once more. The Fire Lord and the Avatar began the Harmony Restoration Movement to restore the Fire Nation Colonies to their pre-war state by bringing any Fire Nation nationals back home, but for many of the citizens — of mixed Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom … Read more ›

Sokka/Toph couldn't have happened. That would make Lin and Tenzin cousins. -shudder-

Toph and Zuko though? Epic. That would mean Lin and Iroh are siblings and Iroh would have more of a reason to take the city back.

Though, it does look like it's gonna be Zuki but then that begs the question...what about Sokka?


Gene issues aside there's really nothing wrong with cousins dating if it's consenting. I mean, unless you want to go and tell every royal family they're doing it wrong? :XX Granted, the kids have a chance of being derp. xD;'

Oh please let Toko be canon!

I reaaaaally don't like the idea of Zuki. I mean, if it happens I'm not gonna get upset but it's really just out of nowhere for me. Did they even share lines together before this comic? I just don't see where they thought this was a good idea.

I suppose there's nothing wrong otherwise. However, I would gladly tell every royal family they're doing it wrong So long as my head doesn't get chopped off.

Still, I'd rather see Toko, or Zuki. OR Jin(thegirlfromtheshownotmyjin)xzuko. Also, what about Azula? What do you think happened to her? Jail forver, did she get help? Did she stop taking the morning crazy pill, and to stay relevant to the topic who she would have gotten with? Azulaxcrazypill?

Azula probably was imprisoned since she didn't get her bending taken away. I don't even really think she's capable of a healthy relationship.

The only possible relationship Azula could maintain would be with herself. She's already crazy so talking to yourself is now plausible so.... Azula X Azula for me ;)

I kind of always liked Azula x Ty Lee. >.> A fanon pairing if there ever was one, though; as has been said I highly doubt Azula ever left prison — or COULD, really, considering her breakdown and the likely disinterest in her mental health.

One of my favourite pairings from AtLA was definitely Katara x Aang. I was a Zuko x Katara girl for a while, but I tend to believe that relationships based upon angst and disagreement are more good for physical interaction rather than lasting relationships.

I also really liked Jun x Iroh. Age difference, psh.

Ahh, slash pairings. I really liked Katara x Azula, must be the whole Fire and Water thing that attracts so many people to pairing Katara with firebenders.

I was a Katara x Aang fan from the very beginning, as Kami can attest. I just always knew that was how it was going to end up, and I honestly liked the pairing a lot. It was very cute. Usually, I'm a fan of pairings like Katara x Zuko, but not this time around. Go figure. :)

I'm not much of a shipper but part of me hoped that Meng would come back and sweep Aang off of his feet. Alas, this did not happen...then again there could be some adorable, stiff-haired, gap-toothed progeny running around.

That goes without saying, Zombi.
It's a pity that the original series was so fast paced that we didn't get much in the way of romance. They could of at least given us one ooey-gooey sweet love epilogue concerning the couples. I hope Meng found her big-eared dream man or whatever she was supposed to end up with.

In all seriousness I thought there was a decent amount of romance in the series. Its pacing is very different from Korra's though. Korra's romance comes in big spurts but ATLA I think was more drawn out.

I liked A:TLA's romance more because of just that Hotaru, it was drawn out and done well.

That isn't to say I dislike Korra's romances, but I think with the lack of allotted episodes, that these romances need to be thrown in out face to get the fact of it across. Not to mention they probably had to get the drama out now so in the coming episodes it won't be a big mess.

<Kami edit: Let's watch the language. Also, it's kind of pointless to censor yourself if you only edit out one letter, isn't it? It's not like you're really hiding what you're saying.>

It makes sense since Korra only had one season planned. That's why the romance is so rushed. ATLA had time to subtly hint at things and have time to sit out and have stronger character development. Korra is very plot based with not as much development.

I wouldn't say they had "less" development, but rather their development skipped a few steps. They went from Personality A to Personality C because of the rush. Where as A:TLA went from A, to B, to C and ends at D.

I didn't know it only had one season planned, I knew that there are going to be two seasons because of the listed, or lack there of, episodes. (By that I mean they have twenty episodes listed but not their names quite yet.)

Originally, Korra was actually going to be a mini-series, which is roughly six episodes. :] We were very lucky to squeeze two seasons due to a good fanbase response.

(LOL @ *secret tunnel*)

honestly, I might die if we see KorrAsami, but considering it's a Nick show, probably not -_-
Honestly, though, two highly independent head-strong women...I might suggest that to be the strongest shipping.

I am sad to see just how MaKorra actually happened. I knew it would ( i think everybody did ) but it felt so sudden, and it could have been excellent development-fuel for the next book. Oh well. Ship has sailed
.

I'm thinking we might see a BuFong. it is age appropriate and I don't think Tenzin will go back to Lin after having 3 children with the woman who stole him from her (though, I honestly would like to see LinZen, at least in a flashback). at the same time, we have no idea what Boomi is like beyond his namesake.

Same with General Iroh. IMO, he doesn't have enough personality to match with anyone. He's a very generic general with Zuko's voice at the moment. I'm hoping we see more character's personalities in book 2.

Now, I know this is weird and pedophilia-ish, but let's say it is 10 years later: I would LOVE to see Iki x Bolin
