Description
I was innocently listening to my Disney playlist when suddenly the song "Wouldn't change a thing" - Camp Rock 2 started playing.This image came immediately to my ming and I had to draw!
Now I’m way further from recovering from the lok finale..
But anyway, I’m using all of my strenght to do as many makorra stuff as I can, before loosing all of my will..
Because… yeah, it still hurts..

I'm sorry I didn't say anything before, but let me say how much I love and support this pic.

Thank you so much for the support and everything!! ^^'
I'm sorry I didn't get to do anything for the valentines, but definitely there will be a lot more, as long as I have the will to support them, because to be honest, I've been considering leaving the fandom for a while, but as I see that people are still interested in it, I think I might go on with it a bit longer ^^'

Oh my gosh, are you kidding? There's still a HUGE fandom and support for Mako and Korra, and it's actually growing from what I see.

Oh, I heard a bit about this mess in the fandom because of Bryke, and all I did was to laugh, because he made a choise and didn't know how to deal with the consequences later on, but anyway, for now I'm trying to stop a little with fanart, so I can explore my own creativity, though I'll most likely to keep posting fanart in here because of fan service ...

I think that's a pretty cool idea, focusing on your own, original ideas. I wish you all the best of luck with it.

Yeah, this feeling of could have been better is what makes me sad about the show, but I guess we'll just have to deal with it.
And thanks for the support!! Right now I'm struggling with time because of working and college, but I'm willing to draw a lot as soon as I have time, so I'll probably be doing a lot of Makorra stuff that I've been planning to =]

In a way, I can deal with it, but it's still so very disappointing and a completely reversal of what the creators intended. Everyone is opening their eyes and seeing the true, misguided reasons the creators did what they did. But at any rate, the support for them is still huge and growing, and that's what matters to me.

Thanks!! ^^' I think I'll get the hang of it somemehow, I hope...
But yeah, let's do it! The weekend has arrived, so I might get to work on something, because you just convinced me back to draw Makorra!!! =]

I have? Awesome!

Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!
All of this means a lot to me! It's good to hear this, because the art block I'm going through didn't allow me to post stuff this weekend, but I'll work harder, so I can give you the best possible ^^"
Once again, thanks for the kind words

Awww, sorry to hear about your art block. But at least you're over it.

Frankly, I thought Makorra was good'n'sunk even before the Korrasami hints started dropping. Gave it a whirl, it didn't work. They broke it off, but remained friends. I thought that worked fine.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course that totally worked. Their friendship by the end was even stronger than their 'love' relationship in the beginning, but I still had hopes for that... Idk, maybe I'm just disappointed

i am more makosami shipper but still
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, during the finale when Asami's father died, I was like, they are gonna give a reward for her and I might be Mako, but in the end they did something I totally disagree.. In that case I would totally ship Masami too -.-

I know 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Eh, maybe Korra and Asami go on their little vacation, kiss once and decide they don't like it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I do prefer to belive this, but the authors themselves comfirmed that Korrasami was canon.
And the worse is that they metioned about making comics for lok, so if their intention is to spread their ideology, they're probaly gonna keep the couple T.T
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm pretty sure they won't make the comics, Korra was on life support as it had gone from Saturday mornings to Friday nights to online. In all honesty, while i do believe that homosexuality isn't normal, if they were going to have Korra x Asami be canon, give us some actual development, not a series of small gestures that can easily be sseen as platonic, and the fact that they had to come out and confirm it doesn't show that the people who saw it as ambiguous were homophobic or ignorant, it jsut shows that Bryke isn't good at writing. Still, the oen good thing about this Korra ending was that it should how actually bad the series was especially compared to TLA. With Korra, I never actually felt emotionally connected or invested in the characters. I loved Aang, he was made so well you can't not love him. There were parts of TLA that I actually cried at like when Yue died or when Iroh mourns his son, I felt nothing with Korra, yeah we get it, she's Rosie the riveter as a character. I mean, Katara was a much better female role model, strong, but caring, loving and nurturing. Sorry about ranting like this, but the ending just pissed me off that much. Good news is, for the most part, young kids don't watch the show, and they wouldn't likely see the romance anyways.

The support for TLOK was far lesser after (the admittedly weak-until-the-end) Season 2. But it picked up to the point where Nick put it back on TV for the final episodes. There's more than enough support for an ATLA style continuation comic.
'Sides - it's not like American kids media hasn't been exposed to homosexuality before (granted, most of it in dubbed anime form, but still).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Still, its where the support comes from, i mean, anyone that liked makorra, and anyone that (like me didn't give a damn about shipping) is essentially done with Bryke as his post is basically big FU to anyone who wasn't pro Korrasami. Basically Bryke is surrounded by his band of fanatically loyal Tumblrettes who will hang on to his every word and the news sites love him right now because of how "progressive" his ending was so they avoid actually reviewing the show. As For me, when i jave kids, I'm most likely not gonna let them watch TV, i mean by then who knows how horrible it will degenerate to. I men a, I'll share with them the Last air-bender because it was so awesome. In all honesty, the reason why I'm doing all these long, rant-like posts is because as you can tell, I am very bitter at this ending for a multitude of reasons.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahah, you said everything and I totally agree with the bad building of the characters in lok compared to tlab, as well as I also had the same issue about showing the last episode to my younger brother who had always followed the series with me. What I did was to let him watch and see his reaction. He didn't notice the romance until I mentioned it, and since he had already seen that, I used the situation to explain that even if we consider that thing wrong, we cannot judge that person, because of his/her mistakes ( cause to me homosexuality is considered wrong) and we still have to respect them, after all, it's just a mistake like any other, such as lying and etc, the only difference is that this kind of thing is more common nowadays.... Idk
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, still, my biggest problem is how the creators confirmed it, As a fan, I just felt abandoned, lied to and insulted that just because I didn't agree with the ending, it means I'm some Klan member. Ironic that Bryke talks about tolerance and acceptance when he then bashes and judges anyone who disagrees with him. I think the the biggest problem now is that Bryke is going to be put further from reality as he is now praised a God on Tumblr. OH well, In my mind, I'm just going to consider book 1 of Korra Canon as that's what was originally planned.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I'm also having this feeling of leaving everything, because of this mess that's going on in the Korra fandom. I think this war will be ending with time, after all, stuff like this happen in every fandom. I just agree with you that Bryke's decisions have been really exaggerated lately..

Yeah, I was never a shipper at all, I didn't. Care about romance but I liked the TLA ending because it made sense. With korra its nonsensical almost to the point of absurdity. Not only does it expose he creators as sellouts it shows then as l liars. There are statements from them that contradict their latest posts even one of the writers posted that the original animatic was not them holding hands. In the end this shows both how low liberals will sink and also that shipping wars need to stop. We should just expect a good show and let the writers determine the relationships.

Maybe if the show ended with no pairings at all would indeed be a better choise, so there would be less fights and a friendship message would be way more appreciated them throwing everyone aside just for one expecific couple
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, but the problem is that because while that ending wouldn't have made everyone happy, no one would be upset or bitter or offended. The only problem is that that ending would have made Korra not that memorable, the writers pulled this bullshit so it would stand out. Now they are praised for being groundbreaking when in reality they became hacks and sellouts. I mean, even when they stated that nick was supportive it seems lieka lie, initially Nickelodeon didn't even like Korra because she was female, yet all of the sudden they are fine with her as being bi? Again I'm sorry for ranting its just that the ending just made me so upset and angry I don't know what to do, any ideas on how to cope?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm still struggling to get over this ending, so I don't think I can help, and also this thing of doing something that would supposedly be a good thing but needing up not being good because of the reason behind it just makes things worse, so for now I'm trying to balance between gathering the good memories from the show to giving a break from this verse and waiting for the feelings calm a bit down..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. I mean, I know its pretty pathetic to be upset over a tv show considering that there are vastly more important things in life, its just that, I know there would be a point in which they would pull something like this, I just wished it wasn't Avatar, I've been a fan of the show since the first series. Still, looking back on Korra, I've realized some other offensive stuff in it. Like the show is actually pretty sexist against men, I mean, its not just that the lead is female, I'm fine with that, but its that all the male characters are either cheating, brooding bastards like Mako, clueless idiots like Varrick and Bolin or villains. Like all men are insensitive, pigheaded, morons. At least in TLA we hada good mix with Toph and Katara, and Aang, Sokka, and Zuko. To feel better I've kidna been rationalizing the ending, I mean, they aren't truely canon because the post was outside of the show, if you jsut watch the show you can interparate it any way you want. Also, I've been thinking up a fu nnew season, wannas hear it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, there really are more important stuff to worry about, but we can't deny that TV has a big role at 'manipulating' or at least having some influence on people's lives, so we should be concerned about what's going on in there.. About the male characters development, I was just fine (even though atla had better of it) during the development of the series, but the ending really threw them aside for their selfish intentions..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
True, honestly, Korrasami isn't truly canon, despite what Bryke said, if you truly just look at the show, you can interpret it any way you want. I mean, there is likely so much running against them being a couple, I mean the show is set in the 1920's and 30's its not likely that a same sex relationship would be accepted. Also, both korra and Asami have their families to consider,would they truly let their bloodline die out just so they can follow their selfish desires? Anyways, I think this idea fora fake new show would make you feel better.
Much lighter in tone, more kid friendly (little to no romance, more humoristic, adventurous)
Set a couple hundred years before Aang with the earth Avatar before Kyoshi
Avatar is a 14 yo earth-bending kid from a coastal village
Trains and masters earthbending with White lotus
departs on a ship bound for firenation with new firebending teacher
ship crashes, he is lone survivor
lands on a watertribe pacific island
meets cheery watertribe girl
he saves the island from pirates
they give him a boat
Pirate adventures

You just said everything. And I really don't like this thing of not taking these certain things in cosidaration una show just so it can go the way the writers want. It totally takes all of the sense of connection to our reality..
Btw, is that story yours?? It seems very interesting =]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Just remember, it doesn't matter in the end, within a few weeks, Korra will be forgotten by the mainstream and will only be kept alive on sites like this. Though that's the saddest thing for me honestly, is that the Avatar series ends with some stupid social-justice crap hamfisted in at the last minute, and that;s what Korra and who Korra will be remembered for, not this amazing Nick series with an awesome setting, plot, and characters, but for two queers in an ambiguous scene in the last 15 seconds of the show. Honestly, my ending would have been a group photo after the wedding.
As for my story, yeah its pretty much my own, though i did get a couple ideas from a thread on 4chan, though that thread has the story in a 1980's cold war scenario after Korra which I just think is silly. Yeah,
So then the avatar and the water tribe girl go to the firenation to find a teacher and they find a firenation noble girl who is very sophisticated and kinda looks down on them, but they help her out and she eventually agrees to join them. Next they find the air bender in a temple who is kinda nerdy and meditative and he joins em. I was-thinking that the main antagonist could be the leader of some pirate organization.

It's really sad that we're most likely remebering lok this way, but that's the way the creators chose..
And for your story, it seems really nice! Have you started writing or considered making a comic out of this??
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I haven't written anything down, it's just an idea in my head. I don't really think i'd actually write it down because I'm not an artist and I don't really like writing stories based of another person's creations. Its not that i hate fanatics, its just that I think you should try and do something completely original. Although, if you wanted to make a comic or story based of of this, I'd be more than happy to provide support.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahah, if only I weren't this lazy... -.-
Tbh I have an avatar story written that was originally planned to be a comic, as well as an original story, also written, that I also wanted to make a comic out of it ><
I'm planning to go for the original during this vacation, but I still doubt I would even get the motivation needed D:
But I belive you can simply becoming an artist just by trying to make something! Why don't you give it a try? xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd like to hear that story, I'll think about writing my idea down. I just like the idea of a happy go lucky avatar and his friends on a pirate adventure. I'd like his focus to be on making rock armor (those were my favorite parts of avatar) To end the whole Korra thing, it makes even less sense in that, when korra and Asami are walking to the spirit portal, Republic City is lying in ruins, but do they care? no! I kinda like to think of the next Avatar who has to live with all of Korra's mistakes and rather than seek wisdom in her, he just finds her annoying. Anyways, for my story, any thoughts on who some villain/other characters could be?
