Because those are the actual reasons why a lot of people were disappointed with LoK...

My point. Bolin being a cop was fanon only. If theres one thing the ATLA fandom should have learned the last time is that fanon will never become canon, and they shouldn't get upset when it doesn't. Asami is not a wilting flower in need of a man to save her. Yeah she was down about her month long relationship ending, but you know what? They never got to know each other before they started dating and they were teens. That happens all the time. As for Mako, well, I love flawed fuckers. And I honestly don't think he's worse than the man who chained up children. :P

I love flawed fuckers when they're presented and called out as flawed fuckers. Mako is a flawed fucker who is very briefly called out on his fuckery, but rather than learning, he creates even more fuckery and we're expected to root for him.

That's the difference between him and Yakone. Yakone was a Complete Monster and treated like a Complete Monster. Mako was a complete Jerkass who we were supposed to root for somehow.

The only thing Mako did was over-react to Korra being in trouble and not realizing he was obsessing over Korra. Sorry but I don't think that's on the level of "Oh my god, someone throw away the key" :P

He cheated on his girlfriend, then tried to blame it on his brother when he got called out on it and we're supposed to sympathize. To me, that's a Jerkass. Nothing to be locked up for, but still an awful character.

Having a girl kiss you=/=cheating. Just saying.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-13 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
When you kiss her back? Yes, it's cheating.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-13 10:25 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think it's cheating. It may have been crummy to do, but kissing a girl back who kissed you after you've only been dating someone you just met for a few weeks isn't exactly "Oh, I had an affair and I hope my longterm love doesn't find out!"

They're teenagers, they're awkward. Sorry, but I'm just not seeing what he did as anything near Yakone or his brother. And I certainly do not think he should have been chased down with pitchforks for it either :P

(Anonymous) 2012-12-13 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, so it's it's not really cheating if the relationship is only a few months old? Tell me, what's your cutoff for when it's not okay to be a two-timing douchecanoe?

And I never said it was anything near what Yakone did (quite the opposite, actually), but nice attempt at a strawman, I guess? I'm not advocating him being chased down with pitchforks, either. Just saying it's more than understandable why a significant chunk of the fandom hcan;t stand him.
