This might be controversial because I'm comparing a real-life tragedy to fiction but mostly the aftermath of it.

Something I had seen within the avatar fandom is how they treat Spider is like what the game "My Child Lebensborn" is about.

My old history teacher once said that fear of discrimination is created/increased, especially with wars. It's 100% true.

Spider gets mistreated because of his background. We see this when Neytiri says Spider should be with his own kind. Spider is often treated like an outcast. Spider has not done anything wrong, yet Neytiri still treats Spider like a threat because of the fear she has of the tragedies she had to go through. Neytiri and other Na'vi are like this because of the war with the humans. Even if the said humans had no part in the war(Spider) or some that were part in the war but on the good side(Jake, Norm, and other science people). Spider could also be treated harshly because he's the son of Quaritch and we all know what he did.

You could also say the same thing about when the Sully family went to live with the Metkayina. Since Jake is Toruk Makto and Toruk Makto, it only comes at a time of great sorrow. We can see the Metkayina being wary of them. I don't know if this should be related to the topic I'm talking about. But Ao'nung and if I remember correctly Rotxo too, making fun of their tails, unlike Ronal, who was looking at it from a survival standpoint. They could also be wary because there is a different type of Na'vi, who knows.

This could be a stretch.

One thing I hate about Naruto is that Kishimoto wasted so much potential for Sakura, Team Gai, Hyūga clan, Kurenai, Shino, and so many others.

For me, Sakura is the most wasted because she's one of the main characters, yet it didn't seem that way. Compare Sakura and the other mains. She is more like a side character who's a fan favorite like Shikamaru, expect a lot people hate her.

It makes sense to not like Sakura in the beginning. That's what character development is for. Sakura was supposed to go from boy-crazy to the strong independent heroine, and if you read the manga, it does feel that way but, in the end, she ends up with Sasuke now, that would be a problem if she didn't immediately forgive him, she was the one who told Naruto to stop seeking Sasuke because she could tell, that it was pointless and the damage is evident. Kishimoto himself said he regretted Sakura's character, failed, and said that even if he expanded on her it wouldn't raise her popularity. It was too late the damage was done. Kishimoto knew Sakura wasn't popular yet chose moments for Sakura that needed understanding of her badly written character.

All of the team members of Gai had so much potential, Gai & Lee being the best Taijutsu users, Neji being the genius of the Hyūga clan, and Tenten even though we don't see her a lot, in the manga, we don't see the fight between her and Temari, but we see a few scratches on Temari. Of course, we didn't see the official fight, and Tenten still got folded, but it's the thought that counts. It's a shame we never got to see her get better. She could have used her chakra and infused it with her weapons like Asuma does. We never got to see them fight after the Kazekage Ark, and we never saw them fight as a team, a beautiful dysfunctional team.

The Hyūga clan at the start was shown was the strongest clan, and we learned a lot about the clan during the chūnin exams. With the Hyūga clan, I see the loss of potential with using about them. Personally, I'm fine with Hyūga clan being put in the sidelines for the Uchiha clan to shine. But we only had two main characters from Hyūga clan, Hinata, and Neji. Compared to the Uchiha clan, we don't see any other characters aside from fillers. I just wished we got to learn more about the Hyūga clan and their connection to the Ōtsutsuki clan, which we only saw during the last movie.

I always feel bad for Kurenai because she was done dirty. We were told she was one of the greatest genjutsu users, and the only time we see her fight is against the greatest genjutsu user, Itachi Uchiha. Of course, she gonna lose against him, and that's the one time we see her fight apart from fillers. Then she ends up pregnant and boom she's nothing but a mother, which is fine. Most of the mothers in anime are dead, but we are told that Kurenai is a genjutsu specialist and we never got a chance to see that canonically.

Shino has shown potential in the fights we have seen him in, but we never went into depth into Shino how he uses his bugs and gets better at using them. Apparently, the Aburame clan can identify and counter genjutsu because their kikaichū don't have the brain structures for it. I mean it's a shame we didn't see especially since the show later was centered around the Uchiha clan.

Overall, the reason many characters got left out of the series or ignored was that Kishimoto focused everything on Naruto, Sasuke, and popular characters due to the fans.

I hadn't seen anyone else talk about when Metkayina was mad at the Sully family talking about the war they brought. I haven't seen anyone talk about Lo'ak not being with his family but instead with the Metkayina crowd.

We can see the whole Sully apart from the Lo'ak and Tuk, I always assume she was home because why would there be little children when the Metkayina are talking war. We see no other children other than the preteens. That explains Tuk but what about Lo'ak? We can see the physical separation between Lo'ak and the family as being the outcast of the family.

We see Lo'ak emerge from the back crowd. As Lo'ak makes his way through the crowd none of them get mad at him or upset at him, two warriors even who we see look at him and then look back at the commotion. This could be because the said commotion is more important than the boy from the Sully family, or it could be because they see no reason for him to be associated with the Sully family. We know that he learned quickly to the water (excluding Kiri) even having a bond with a Tulkun. Tsireya said that Lo'ak is one of them now and this scene is proof and makes sense. Lo'ak himself seems to look more worried when Jake mentions the Tulkun death mark.

The point I'm trying to make is that Lo'ak who felt like an outcast in his family found his place in the Metkayina. He's away from his family and is part of the crowd of the Metkayina.
