26 (43 is a repeat)

Weeaboo? Gosh, that hurts.
I really hope that you're talking about the fandom, really, because Avatar in itself is anything but weeaboo.

I mean, yes, the universe is based on various cultures--Japanese, yes, but you'd have to be blind not to notice the Inuit, Chinese, Korean, Tibetan, Thai, even MAYAN influences to the world, too.

Yes, Avatar uses some Japanese culture. But seriously, that's not what the entire show is made up of. You think it's more weeaboo than Teen Titans...? Which episodes have you been watching? I dearly hope you're solely making this opinion based on the SD shorts.

And, please, don't insult the adult fans. They tend to be a lot nicer than most.

Also, 43 is a repeat. :B

The ";_;" does not help your argument.

Well, gee, I never knew emoticons were that influential. >_>

They can be, sometimes.

Love the icon.

You're obviously mistaken!

I mean, any show with even a little bit of Asian influence--regardless of the actual cultures involved!--is obviously just a bunch of white weeaboos pretending to be Japanese. CLEARLY.

Jeez, people are stupid. =/

Hell, the Swamp Tribe is pretty clearly influenced by a combination of Appalachian and indigenous south american culture of all things (though the former perhaps only as a joke.)

And yes, the Sun... guys... are very clearly freaking Mayan / Aztec. Ish.

... in fact, I think the ONLY culture in the world which is remotely Japanese is the Fire Nation, and even they feel more Korean than Japanese to me. The Earth Kingdom is clearly Chinese; the Water Tribe is Inuit, the Air... guys... peeps... are Tibetan... and of course there's more than just that.

I hate how people see anything remotely Asian influenced and immediately go OMG WEABOO >(

The Koreans would actually kill you for that 'un.

Though I would argue that the Earth Kingdom is more Korean while the Fire Nation strike me as more Chinese actually! :O

I can't really think of anything in Avatar that is overbearingly Japanese, actually!

The Kiyoshi warriors are the most Japanese-influenced thing, as far as I can tell.

I agree with you, the Fire Nation definitely twigs me as more Chinese than Japanese. The Earth Kingdom seems to be based on a variety of cultures, with Korea one of the primary influences (although it's to be expected that in a country that large, there'd be cultural variation!)

Really, I just love the world-building in Avatar. Even if the world is, apparently, flat. XD
