LOL at all the butthurt Korra fans who hate Mako. How dare you question their hate for a fictional character that never actually cheated on anyone in reality. ;^;

Anon who ranted about the "Omg Mako is evil" upthread

Technically he was dishonest and that wasn't cool. He was dishonest and misleading.

I still hold that he's not evil though and I don't know where the fuck they're getting "creepy" from, other than fandom's idea that a guy having any interactions with women is creepy by itself. He was dishonest. Not creepy.

DA

I'm not in fandom, but I have seen the entire show, and my issue is that there's really no repercussion for it. It's fair to say that Mako and Korra's actions do not reflect what the writer's feel, but I think that the lack of general consequence for those actions does. It came across, to me, as forgiving the heroes of moral disrepute because they're the heroes. If it were Mako cheating on Korra with Asami, you've got to know there'd be a much bigger blowback from pretty much every single character, and not just because Korra is more hotheaded.

And I think a lot of the hate comes from how viciously Asami was attacked when people were really shipping Korra/Mako.

Ah I see.

That was problematic. Probably not the best writing partly because they were rushing to make a complete story (thinking season one was it. which would have made it worse because there would have never been resolution)

I'd like to think that when they heard how people didn't like it they will take that into note for next season.

The hate for Asami really would make it worse , though that is less of a writing thing and more of a fangirl thing. I do understand the reasons for the anger. I did find it annoying about how he was dishonest and Asami was blown off and told to deal with it because of the situation.
