idk how you can watch the cave of two lovers and see aang and katara kiss in that cave and have the kataang theme play in the background while the story of oma and shu is told and think oma and shu is anything but a parallel to kataang

Why would Katara marry Aang if she didn't love him??
She's an impossibly strong woman. But they act like she's too weak and subservient to think for herself. Jesus.
She wouldnât. But ZK shippers are so angry that she ended up with the âwrongâ guy in their eyes, that they make up literally any excuse as to why she married Aang lol.
Iâve seen them claim that her choice to marry him was âpracticalâ and a strategic move to protect her family ??? đ Iâve seen them say that she married Aang out of fear, Iâve seen them say she married him because it was arranged or because he forced her to, etc đđđđ
And they say the same thing about them having kids lol. He either forced her to have his kids because heâs a rapist or he coerced her somehow or she was just trying to please him etc etc
Like in their minds, Aang is an abusive super angry violent man đ and they want kataang to be this husband beats on wife scenario and it sends me every time cuz this is canon kataang

I donât get it when ppl say Kataraâs feelings for Aang are never shown, voiced etc⌠like ummm what show did you watch cuz Kataraâs massive crush on Aang was the most obvious thing ever. She was jealous of him paying attention to girls that werenât her as early as book 1 episode 4, she was giving him cheek kisses as early as book 1 episode 15 and this was immediately following the Fortuneteller episode where she was depicted as being pretty open and in awe of the idea of marrying and having children with Aang specifically. She literally told him she loved him in book 2 episode 1, and this was not familial/platonic love⌠she is not speaking about anyone in this scene other than herself. She is the one concerned and upset when she sees him in the avatar state, not anyone else including Sokka. This is about her feelings for him. âYou have to understand, for the people who love you, watching you be in that much rage and pain is really scary.â Sokka doesnât feel like this, lol. She does, because she loves Aang deeply and beyond simple friendship. So itâs no shock that immediately after this episode, she suggests kissing him for the first time on the mouth, and is so angry and upset when she thinks he doesnât feel the same. She just used the whole cave thing as an excuse to make a move. Just like how she used waterbending as an excuse to touch him when he didnât have his shirt on at the beginning of the episode đ she was not slick with it fr

And full offense to these guys, if you really liked or cared about Aang, then maybe youâd call out the rancid behavior from your fandom calling him an abuser and sexual predator. OH WAIT! You canât because you actually agree with these takes.
"We actually like aang, we just donât like how he's written."
This line is always followed with *insert made-up bullshit* *insert exaggeration* *insert moment taken out of context*
Nope, you don't like him. You just hate that he ended up with Katara and you hide behind the guise of "i like him, i just don't like how he's written" but you still actively hate him on behalf of a stupid crack ship
Just admit it and move on

never cared for people who preferred zutara over kataang (to each their own) but i have to ask how they managed to convince themselves that their headcanon of katara being âaangâs trophy wifeâ is actually real???
how are you mad over something not at all canon? just say you ship zutara and leave it at that please!
because being outraged over this while simultaneously being obsessed with the idea of katara being â*zukoâs* fire ladyâ is a bit ironic idk

I will never understand antis who say that Aang is too âimmatureâ for Katara, but then they think heâs mature enough that he should have murdered Ozai (never mind the fact that even if Aang was Zukoâs age or older, the writers still wonât have Aang do that, because Avatar is an all ages cartoon).
Itâs because they view pacifism and Buddhism as childish ideas and beliefs. Aang doesnât do any of the things he does because âheâs 12 and a childâ, he believes these things because his culture and people are modeled after actual culture and religion.
Saying âwell heâs a child, he shouldnât have to kill because heâs a kidâ misses the point of what the story is actually conveying. Yes, Aang is a child, and itâs fine to acknowledge this. But he doesnât refuse to kill Ozai because of his age. He refuses to kill Ozai because that is a sacred tenet of his culture. The storyâs conclusion is far less about Aangâs age and far more about upholding his culture and peopleâs beliefs in a world that took it from him and in the face of a man who believes it is worthless and weak. The entire story is ultimately about this culture and these people who were murdered, and how said killings were seen as just and good because of a view of superiority, both racial and cultural.
The writers and bryke would never have had Aang kill Ozai not because of his age but because it would put his character arc, as well as the entire narrative of the story that everything revolves around, in complete shambles. It would make the entire story meaningless. It would send a message of âYeah, Ozai is right to believe Aangâs culture and people were undeserving of life and he was right when he said it was inferiorâ.

WHAT?! Thereâs absolutely no way, Katara absolutely hates NO romantic feelings towards Aang.
I donât know ANYONE can read these scenes as romantic.
I'm gonna say something crazy about Katara and Aang, guys....they got married because they were in love. They had children because they were in love. They had a family because they were in love.
It wasn't a business marriage. This is horrible, i know.

Shipping Z/tar/a has rotted their brains to the point where irony and critical thought is dead.
Theyâre all are complaining Katara is an abused housewife after marrying Aang, but are totally fine with this slave fetish shit.
But letâs be real, if Katara and Zuko did marry and was shown to have a genuine toxic and abusive relationship, these people would shrug it off as âsexual tensionâ.
âKataang is unhealthyâ âkataang is sexual assaultâ âkataang is toxicâ âkataang is one sidedâ âkataang shippers are disgustingâ
BLAH BLAH BLAH
Kataang is canon. Cope you fucking loser
a ship so good it makes haters bleed out of their eyes and seethe. kataang you will always be famous

itâs so dumb when ppl say Aang is selfish in his choice to not kill Ozai. If such a thing makes him selfish, then so fucking be it. Aang sacrificed everything there is to sacrifice the whole damn story. So to see him put his foot down and refuse to bend to other ppls wants was liberating. There was no other way this story could possibly conclude. Aang is the last airbender. If he fails to preserve his culture that was taken from him, balance will never be achieved. Killing Ozai would simply be another sacrifice in a long list that Aang made throughout.
