Too bad Bryke ruined her character by making her a passive house wife that let her husband emotionally neglect their non-airbending children :/ I did think it was funny that Zuko, not Katara, knew Aang best. (They wrote the episode! Their words!)

Umm I don't think Katara became a passive house wife. We don't know much about her past besides that she became the worlds best healer. Also Aang loved his kids. They even said so. he was trying to rebuild a lost culture and yeah it was shitty that he didn't spend time with them all equally, but that doesn't make Aang a bad man.

The way Korra's show is being written, yeah, Katara has been negated to "useless quiet housewife who doesn't get a part of the action" and aang's kids have a LOT of parental issues. They might not have intended it to be that way, but their shitty writing sure did make it so.

Katara is OLD. it's not shocking she wouldn't be part of the action. Zuko tried and he kinda got his old ass kicked.

King Bumi. Way older than Katara, but that didn't stop him from being one of the greatest Earthbenders of all time well into his 100's.

I concur with the above anon: when it comes to the treatment of Katara, it sure looks like bad writing.

Except that it's applied to both men and women. Bumi is the outlier.

Ugh, yes. I try not to think about it too much because I get veeery angry at that. Then again, Bryke aren't exactly stellar writers or as progressive as they think. Honestly, Korra has been such a let down for me.

Agreed that Korra as a whole is a letdown, so much that I stopped watching a while ago. Give me reruns of A:TLA any day.

What they have done to Katara is insulting. And lol at people excusing it with the "she's old". Zuko is older than her ffs. She wasn't even present in Jinora's ceremony.

(Anonymous) 2014-08-24 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously. King Bumi was older than her and went down as one of the greatest Earthbenders in history into his 100's. "lol Katara is old" doesn't fly. Just... don't even try that feeble excuse for an argument.

Even if she can't fight (which I think is bullshit, if Zuko can, so can she) I doubt Katara would miss Jinora's ceremony unless she was on her deathbed and if that's the case why didn't anybody mention it?
