i wonder if korra had always known she was bisexual or if she saw asami one day and thought lmao ok if i was straight at one point i’m not anymore

i have this headcanon that when she was younger and found out katara was married to her in her past life korra would get excited and be all “does that me you’re my wife?” and then if someone was rude to katara young korra would yell something like “don’t talk to my wife like that!” and just basically assume being with women was okay simply because she’s already been with them in past lives

I love seeing the lok fandom on my dash simply for cute shit like this man

Tenzin: Korra, go to your room

Korra: I AM YOUR FATHER, Tenzin go to your room

I really enjoy the irony that in the avatar universe typically:

firebenders/people from the fire nation seem cold and keep their emotions hidden

waterbenders/people from the water tribes are hotheaded and passionate

earthbenders/people from the earth kingdom are lighthearted jokesters

airbenders/people from the air temples are grounded and level headed

OMG HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THAT

Part: 1/2

Yoo Jae-myung, animation director of The Legend of Korra, discusses Nickelodeons initial hesitancy to accept Mike and Bryans proposal of the show… and Korra.

“The sequel focuses on the incarnation of the new Avatar, Korra, as she tries to save a city called the Republic City.”

“So, Korra is a young girl , not a boy. Heroes and protagonists are usually men.”

“That actually became a problem.

Nickelodeon was reluctant to produce this animated series at first because the protagonist was a girl.

I guess you could say that Americans are more conservative than Koreans.

The production was suspended just because the protagonist was a girl.

To compare this situation to a movie production, it’s as if the lead actor has already been cast, but the production agency decides to stop the filming because they don’t approve of the actor.”

Fun fact: I did a research paper for an upper division course detailing how gender and gender roles affect movies and TV shows, and I used Bryan’s thoughts as evidence.

When I received feedback for the presentation on the topic, several classmates commented saying they didn’t even know Korra’s gender would have possibly stopped production.

And that pattern of skepticism from the studio end never went away either, which played into a lot of the production problems the series had, which in turn impacted the quality of the product (see: Book 2’s rushed scripting and the use of two studios with vastly different art qualities).

Those things, of course, impact the response to the show. And this creates a loop, where studio people can comfortably look at a property that they helped kneecap, show that it didn’t ‘perform to expectations,’ and blame whatever factor they like–in this case, Sexism, but queerness and race issues can play in too–as the reason for it.

Which is all another reason why Legend of Korra is my favorite damned show, because it’s kind of a miracle it even got made at all.
