turned on the light in my pitch black bathroom and all 3 of my cats were on their hind legs, in a circle, beating the shit out of each like some secret feline fight club

“They finally made this theme more blatant-" Why does it need to be blatant. What's wrong with subtlety? Concepts can be underused but subtlety is not neglect.

Blaring all your concepts and themes is not good writing. It's so disruptive to a story's flow when the characters look off the screen to be like "See? This is the concept. The idea. The theme."

If you can feel the hand of the author becoming too heavy that's bad.

For example: I see people saying Azula's abuse in ATLA is more blatant in the live action and it's good because "it's being discussed more". It already was discussed at length. The show made it clear she was a victim at every turn, every behavior, every reaction, it came from a place of trauma. It was made clear that she was scared of ending up like Zuko because Zuko was an example of what would happen to her if she failed. When she says she's better than Zuko it wasn't just because she was raised to think hersef superior to him but because Zuko failed and failures get mutilated and exiled, failures are abandoned. In that final Agni Kai the music is morose and somber because this isnt some epic battle its a fucking tragedy, the burning out of "Ozai's brightest light" and Azula finally succumbing to her terror and trauma she was repressing now that her worst fears are realized. How can you see a fourteen year old girl chained to a sewer grate wailing and writhing and breathing fire desperately as unsympathetic? Even Katara and Zuko are horrified as to what has become of her.

The writers weren't looking us in the eye and saying "See? She's a victim too" when they wrote this, they weaved it in. They weaved it into her obsesison with symmetry, her extreme perfectionism, the way she talks about Ozai, the ways she calls herself a monster, her isolation from those with healthy home lives, all the ways she held herself together and ultimately all the cracks and seams that she shattered down when she fell apart. It did not need to be blatant to be clear.

#i think azula is actually one of the worst adapted characters in the live action. katara is obvs the worst but #she's too emotionally aware of her fragility. she's too desperate to please #and azula DOES want to please but she doesn't realise it because she's so good at everything #i am obsessed with the fact that azula being the 'perfect' golden child is what destroyed her #zuko was so used to failure that he learned to weather it. whereas azula had never failed and never been allowed to fail #so when she did it just destroyed her #the cartoon gives you set up and pay off for azula. it builds her up as this perfect ruthless firebending prodigy #and then it shatters that illusion later. and it hits all the harder for it #but the live action atla is not interested in set up and payoff #they just want instant gratification #avatar #the last airbender

when the avatar season 2 episode 1 hits and you remember all over again that azula is the best written antagonist in all human history

#azula #avatar #the last airbender #her lines just HIT #she is so perfectly written #season 2 of avatar makes me giddy it's so good #her VA truly ate and left no crumbs

my toxic trait is being fervently convinced that if i ever came across a dragon irl we would make eye contact and understand each other at a primal level of transcendental trust instead of charring me into a crispy onion
