Line 37:
== Avatar Korra is a girl. ==
And thus the creators will pull off the seemingly impossible of having a female main character in a popular show watched by guys.
* [[I Knew It!|Confirmed]].
* "Seemingly impossible" to have a female main character in a popular show watched by guys? You do know that a lot of franchises with female main characters are marketed towards guys? ''[[Tomb Raider]]'' and ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' (yes, despite being a magical girl title, it's marketed as seinen) are just two examples off the top of my head.
** Seemingly impossible when not played mostly for fanservice.
Line 217:
* Plus this will allow the creators to ship Aang's reincarnation with Aang's grandson.
** No, just just no, hear how wrong that sounds; a boy dating the reincarnation of his own grandpa.
*** Never saw what was so wrong with that. They're not the same person, and they're not physically related (as far as we know). All the claims of reincarnation being equatable to relation always struck me as very WallBangery. And besides that, it's only ever cited in [[Ship -to -Ship Combat]] situations, so it's more of a weapon than an opinion.
*** Avatar reincarnation doesn't exactly work like that. Each Avatar's individual spirit is unique, it's only the Avatar Spirit that is reincarnated each time. Think of it like the Avatar having two spirits - their own "soul" and the "Avatar Spirit". So although she has access to Aang's spirit via the Avatar Spirit, she is not technically Aang's reincarnation in the sense the word is usually used.
**** Well, it is redundant to ship a water tribe character with an Air Nomad character. Also, notice when Aang and Kyoshi are on trial, he uses words like "me" and "I" and is tried as if he was Kyoshi. They also share the same spirit.
Line 320:
== Zuko LIVES!! ==
Okay, c'mon, [[Dante Basco]] said he was playing a character the audience "would not expect," who is related to Zuko in some way. Who's to say that character isn't Zuko himself? Sure, it'd probably take some work to get Basco's boyish voice to sound like an old man's, but stranger things have happened. And even if Basco isn't playing Zuko, he could be playing a descendant of Zuko's who works closely with the Fire Lord, giving him an opening onto the show.
* And...well, {{spoiler|Katara}} is alive. Why not have a [[December -December Romance]] to finally appease the Zutarians?
* Confirmed. Zuko is currently retired from his post as Fire Lord and travels the world as an ambassador.
 
Line 330:
* [[Not So Stoic|Corollary]] - Lin is a type I [[Tsundere]].
* And did she attempt suicide? At the very least slash her face in anger? I mean two almost identical scars running parallel on one side of her face seems very unlikely to be caused by random accidents. Oh dear, oh dear.
* ''And,'' this would completely play into the whole "Everyone is Batman" theme going on in this show. Think about it for a minute: a [[Hot -Blooded|young hothead]] [[Legacy Character|takes over the role]] of a legendary hero, who used to work closely with the [[The Commissioner Gordon|police chief]] of a major metropolis. This police chief had a daughter, who became the police chief herself in time, does ''not'' approve of the young hothead becoming a [[Legacy Character]], ''and'' [[Dry Docked Ship|used to have a relationship]] with the hothead's [[The Mentor|mentor]]. This mentor is a [[Cool Old Guy]] and [[Badass Grandpa]] who is [[Not So Above It All]]. With these character dynamics in mind, [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|ATLA]] would be to [[The Legend of Korra (Animation)|LOK]] as [[Batman the Animated Series]] is to [[Batman Beyond]]. [[Dry Docked Ship|Lin/Tenzin]] is now, officially, just too damn awesome NOT to have happened.
* In Episode 6 it's revealed that Lin and Aang got along just fine, her animosity towards Korra is solely due to Korra's destructiveness and her history with Tenzin.
 
Line 386:
** The first licensed game for [[Avatar: The Last Airbender]], [[The Trouble With Licensed Games|while not very good]], did actually have a character who was making steampunk robots that could mimic the [[Elemental Powers]] of bending. She was even creating them with the express purpose to tearing down all benders, as well.
* More to the point, look at what was seen in th background of Amon's little meeting place: [http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1m3rh5z0B1qb59nf.png Blueprints for something suspiciously robot-like.]
** Aaaaand, what did we get in Episode 7? Mecha-tanks, courtesy of {{spoiler|Hiroshi Sato}}. Can you say, "[[I Knew It!]]"?
 
== Proving that being a [[Chew Toy]] is [[In the Blood]], the Cabbage Man's descendant will experience the exact same luck as his/her ancestor. ==
