on s4 of my legend of korra rewatch and im still not rockin with asami im sorry

imo she is SO boring and somehow is a perfect combination of wasted potential mixed with being borderline completely unnecessary

and also in regards to her relationship with korra i think it is so flat. and it doesnt even have to be!!! they could have been SO interesting! but no they are so bleh to me

btw i havent read the comics and ive heard really great things about her and korra’s relationship so i’ll just take everyones word for it and i understand a lot of her and korra’s lack of chemistry in the show has to be chalked up to the writers not being able to do much bc its nickelodeon and i get that!

i just feel like 90% of the time when shes a point of focus (which is hardly ever btw. circling back to that “unnecessary” part) i just wanna YAWN. in s4 she has an interesting arc w her father but up until that point she just felt like such a filler person that i did not give a fuck about this suddenly interesting storyline! the show did not make me care ab asami so no im not gonna all of a sudden care after 3 seasons of blah!

i know im being a hating ass bitch but i just feel really strongly ab this.

i will say, in general i think the legend of korra struggles with keeping up w their characters and giving them relevant storylines while also keeping their relationships in tact so it would make sense that they all are still friends. like idk there were lots of times where i was like “ok mako and bolin being here/doing this is a stretch”. and i just feel this way the strongest w asami.

i think if atla didnt do this SO perfectly then it wouldnt seem as bad in tlok. but in atla i cannot think of a single time where any characters’ storylines or interactions w one another felt forced. it all felt so natural.

not even gonna tag the legend of korra bc i feel like ppl rly love asami and i dont wanna necessarily go out of my way to piss ppl off lol

Gruvia and nalu crumbs on the same page we love to see it

[doyouevenshipbr0]

u know what. im in the mood to piss ppl off. heres my ranking of the 10 strongest waterbenders in atla and lok (not including avatars, and im not including anything from kiyoshi or yangchen’s era. i havent read those hehe. sowwy. strictly going off the shows).

now im doing this bc waterbending is by FAR my fav form of bending. and in MY OPINION!!!!!,,, people overlook some pretty important facts and feats and decide based more on who their favs are. this is my opinion anyways so im sure i inevitably did that too! but anyways. here we go.

10 strongest waterbenders:

honorable mentions: kya- listen. she is my GIRL. and also she is very strong, but at the end of the day, shes a healer. she has very little combat experience, and she was up against some real monsters in tlok. and shes known to be a great healer, but we dont even see that much of that. for this reason, she cant be top 10:/. eska and desna- they are GOOD. and their synchronized waterbending is super interesting. unfortunately i just kinda think everyone else in the top 10 is stronger. and i feel like the reason they are so strong is because they’re a unit. if they were separated, i have doubts.

10. tonraq- right off the bat im wondering if im going off biases LOL. but i love him. i love his style of bending. he is arguably my fav waterbender to watch waterbend. but unfortunately, in most of his fights, he’s kindaaaa getting worked (im on s2 of lok rewatch now. so i may be forgetting some stuff. but the big fights that stick out for me are him vs unalaq where he gets worked and him vs zaheer and korra where again, he gets kinda worked.) very clearly strong, but does not have all that much to show for it in the show. but he fights with all the big shots for a reason, and he led the water tribe army or something like that. so. hes good.

9. huu- i honestly don’t remember a whole lot of him, but swamp style of water bending is super interesting, and he clearly does it the best. i know we dont see a whole lot of him, but i cant overlook that he is THEE swamp bender.

8. pakku- obv. hes a member of the white lotus and was the master waterbender of the northern tribe. a slayer for his time but i do think he is outclassed by most waterbenders we see in tlok. cannot deny his strength tho. he was the goat at one time for a reason!

7. hama- as far as we know, she is the first blood bender. aka the strongest aspect of waterbending. she is a LEGEND. but again, i think she was a master for her time, but would have trouble holding her own in modern day bending esp without a fully moon.

6. ming hua- the way she uses waterbending as an extension of herself is clearly masterful. and i feel like we never see anyone utilize waterbending anything like how she does. unfortunately, she cant be any higher bc we dont see any extraordinary sub-water feats (healing… i think???? don’t remember lol. bloodbending, spirit healing). but clearly, she was an insane threat to everyone around her.

5. unalaq- so like. MAYBE he should be 4, but i really hate him lol. but i cannot deny he is an EXCEPTIONAL waterbender and pretty much no other waterbender (that we see in s2) can even TOUCH him. hes got the spirit healing, and hes got the skill. somethin somethin vaatu vaatu. idk. i hate him and i dont rly like this season lol. moving on.

4. katara- ok. she was the best in atla. no ifs and or buts. HOWEVER. she gets outclassed in lok and i think we know why. BUT. she was a complete prodigy as soon as she started training with pakku. there was no extension of waterbending that she could not do. she clearly thrived learning waterbending how she did, in such a fast paced, high pressure, and high stakes situation, and thats not even HER PRIME! she was waterbending for under a year when we see her. and we still got the greatest waterbender of that time. there was no one like her, and no waterbender could hold a candle to her by the end of atla. and once again, was only 14. only waterbending for a year. whos doing it like my sis?!

3. tarrlok- unfortunately for katara, the bloodbending family, without a doubt, outdoes her. bloodbending without a full moon? done and done. sorry! i believe katara COULD bloodbend outside of a full moon given the extensive training tarrlok and noatak were given but unfortunately, we will never know, so i cannot in good conscience put her any higher than 4. tarrlok was a master waterbender in itself and pretty much a master blood bender.

2. yakone- he bloodbent. a whole courtroom. with his mind. we dont see anything else from him, and we really dont need to. sorry. it is what it is.

1. amon- he bloodbends with his mind. and learned to take away someone’s bending ability with blood bending. katara, the best healer in the world, could not restore korras bending. granted, she was probably going about it wrong, but the point is, she couldnt do it. taking away someones bending with bloodbending just takes the cake. that aside, even in a combat setting, when he wasnt even trying he was wooping on all other benders of all kinds bc he was controling their movements w his mind. imagine him openly using waterbending AND having his mind control technique?! he would be unstoppable. im ngl i dont love how lok handles waterbending/bloodbending in general. i kinda think they made it TOO strong with little reasoning). also we do see him do an awesome lil water tornado at the end. so. not that we needed that, but its a cute lil cherry on top to his waterbending. hes the strongest waterbender. sorry!

want to finish this by saying had katara learnt to bloodbend outside of a full moon, she would be number one. and i do believe she could have learned. but she didnt. so she cant be first.

**LEGEND OF KORRA REWATCH**

korra is my girl truly but god i am halfway through ep 2 of s2 (the worst effing season) and she is SO UNBEARABLEEEE

in her defense shes a teenage girl like shes gonna be a little brat sometimes but oh my goddddd

she’s obsessed w picking fights w everyone around her like GIVE IT UP!!!!! her and mako’s arguments are hard to watch like they dont make any senseeeee

#personal #lok #tlok #the legend of korra #legend of korra

[doyouevenshipbr0]

ok SO obv doing a legend of korra rewatch.

as much as i love season 1 i have some changes i would like to make…… (the show is over 10 yes old and there is literally no changing it)

BUT! im ngl i never loved the exact way the last episode fans out. its good!!! really good!!!!! but consider this……

first, if amon took korra’s bending…… i find it really hard to believe she would still be able to airbend…? like. ok. fine. i get it and i believe it. but it still doesn’t seem like an airtight plot point.

heres my change: amon never takes korra’s bending. hes about to, but it triggers her to go into the avatar state for the first time and therefore triggers her airbending for the first time. it wouldve been reealllllyyy cool if the first time we see her in the avatar state wouldve been during an actual battle. wouldve been more impactful imo.

then, u might think, “well i love the part where she meets aang and he restores her bending!” so i agree. but again, the logistics of this are a little iffy. this feels a little too easy for her and a little too spoonfed. also, if im being honest, it doesnt even really feel earned. yes korra grew a lot and she beat amon, but she gets a special visit and little treat from aang JUST BECAUSE shes throwing a fit bc she cant bend anymore? (not downplaying her grief! bc i would also be pissed! im just sayinggggg i dont love it.)

SO! insteadddd maybe a couple more people lost their bending. yes lin but maybe tenzin also loses it before korra is able to rescue him. or maybe mako loses it when he fights amon. and THAT could make korra all depressed bc she feels like since shes the avatar, she shouldve been able to help them and stop them from losing their bending.

and THEN!!! aang shows up! and gives her the power to restore bending! he already does that anyway butttt yea hehe.

im just saying it would’ve been way cooler to see korra beat amon via some avatar state destruction (also in turn unlocking her airbending abilities). and i think its too easy for korra to get her bending back just from aang (whos dead btw) doing a lil avatar magic. seems more plausible that his avatar magic could just give korra the ability to restore bending!

im js the original is obviously fine buttttt…… just consider my version ok. mine is cool too.

[doyouevenshipbr0]

no this is literally true!!!!!!!! the creators have come out and said nickelodeon told them it was gonna be a 1 season miniseries!!! so yes originally makorra was gonna be endgame!!! then it did so well nickelodeon gave them another season and were like “ok thats it” but then s2 did so well so nickelodeon told them they can do 2 more seasons.

confession… sometimes….. in my mind… legend of korra ends at season 1 and korra and mako are together forever❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

THE WRITERS RUINED THEM AFTER S1 LIKEEEE U GUYS ARE GOING TO HELL!!!!!!!

korra and asami are cute dont get me wrong but they kinda bore me. i want my angsty grumpy firebending boy and my passionate larger than life waterbending girl and i want them NOW!!!

and before anyone tells me “mako and korra would never work” LET A GIRL DREAM!!!!!! i believe that s1 makorra could conquer the world❤️❤️❤️ s2 makorra…..,.. idk her

[doyouevenshipbr0]

yeah as much as i love s1, the mako/korra/bolin love triangle was…… odd? felt forced and rushed??? i hate love triangles in general but that one especially felt rly unnecessary lol

ykw i think bryke just might not know how to do romance (usually). like the only canon couple that i actually REALLY enjoyed was suki and sokka. the rest i either dont like or i just feel neutral.

bc on this lok rewatch im even really liking korra and bolin!!!!!! they would’ve been fun too!! and u know who else i wouldve loved see a couple? lin and tenzin!

but no! bolin has to end up with opal! boring!!!! and tenzin ends up with pema!! boring and weird bc age gap!!!! (im sorry dont hurt me these are just my opinions)

[doyouevenshipbr0]

THIS!!!!! bc i feel as though if tlok was supposed to have 4 seasons from the start, makorra wouldve been endgame. but like u said, since they originally only had 1 season, they didnt know what to do w them in the following seasons. in my heart, i believe if tlok knew it would have four seasons, makorra wouldve been an epic slowburn over the 4 books heheheheh

confession… sometimes….. in my mind… legend of korra ends at season 1 and korra and mako are together forever❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Here are the official Gruvia Week 2024 prompts! Sorry for the delay. Due to this, please don’t be discouraged if your pieces are late. Truthfully, I wasn’t going to do Gruvia Week this year if not for some wonderful and dedicated fans that encouraged me to keep the tradition going and helped to organize it. It has been over a decade, it would be sad to see it go! 11 years, 12 editions later, here we are.

Just like in previous years these prompts are not complicated, but they are broad and meant to make you think. Be creative. Interpret them however you see fit. If you don’t know what a word means, look it up. Specific and basic prompts would result in different versions/entries of the same thing. That’s why Gruvia Week is so successful every year; imagination. Prompts for this event are always different every year. No repeats! See: Previous Gruvia Week editions

Those who are new to the week, unfamiliar, or would like to simply rehash, please click here to learn how to participate. Also be sure to follow the rules and guidelines. Feel free to ask questions, however please check this blog’s previous posts before submitting them. It’s possible your question could have already been answered.

Reminder: All pieces must be new. Old works will not be reblogged/included in the week. Be sure to specify the day/prompt used in your post. If you don’t have a tumblr, you can still participate. Post your work on any social media platform for that target audience. Participate anywhere; the more the merrier! However, if you’d like your work to be posted/featured here as well, be sure to submit it to this blog. Or submit the link to it (if posted on another platform such as twitter, instagram, wattpad, ao3, etc).

Reminders:

Tag your work with #gruvia week (with the space) within the first five tags.

Avoid using links in your post, as there is a chance it will not show up in the tags. Try using only five tags and no links if your post does not appear. If you must use a link, make sure it shows in the tags.

If your work contains an image or gif, make sure it’s within tumblr’s photo dimensions and size limits. Sometimes big images cause posts to not appear in tags.

It is YOUR responsibility to make sure your post shows up in the mobile and/or pc tags, so be sure to check if it does.

Gruvia Week will be held from April 1st - April 7th as always. Get ready and get creative!
