But I wouldn't be unhappy if Korra got with Bolin by the end of the series.
I think they admitted actually considering it but then decided to make Aang get taller and more mature to reduce the creepy elements instead.
It's adorable that you think that's a permanent situation. By the end of Book 4 I guarantee it's reversed. Not because I want that to happen, mind you. I just know it's going to happen.
I'd put a 50/50 between that and them introducing a new male character (or General Iroh) as a love interest for Korra.
It feels inevitable.
uh yeah that shit was straight-up abusive and Bolin seemed to be aware of this which made it turbo-bullshit that he
More honest than Ginger.
Having Katara and Zuko together, purely because it would defy expectations, would have been really dumb and out of character.
Also, in response to Rorus's Rant; the notion that having bits of romance here and there throughout TLA is somehow creepy because the main character is twelve just doesn't really make sense.
They never really went very far into that aspect of the show. It was mostly just Aang having a crush on Katara, and her gradually developing feelings for him over the course of the series. They touched on it here and there, but it was not really a huge part of the show, no matter what the fandom may have made of it.
A boy having feelings like that at that age may be a little unusual, but it's hardly unheard of, and I don't see how it's somehow creepy to include such a thing.

So you're saying it's just creepy that a childhood romance didn't fall apart, and instead blossomed into a successful adult relationship?
I don't really follow why. Weird I can understand, but not really creepy.
And I still don't get why a 12 year old boy crushing on a girl two years older than him is creepy in the first place.
Actually it was post memory and a touch screen.

Kya is sixty something.
We have no idea when Aang and Katara got married but they didnt start a family until they were in their late twenties /early thirties at least. Seems like a fairly long courtship.
I dont see anything creepy about it.
It may be unlikely, but it does happen- I know several couples (some now in their 80s, some in their 50s) who met in middle school/high school, were their first dates, and ended up getting married. Just because it's unlikely doesn't mean it's creepy to have it occur in a show.
Calling it creepy seems really... Excessive, honestly.
In a life full of joys and troubles, with his best friend by his side, Aang's only regret was not living to meet their grandchildren — and Katara's constant joy was seeing him in them.
What can I say? Guy loved to fartbend.
So we're writing fanfiction now?
Well, writing and then actually posting.

Alternatively, maybe the Gaang was just so damned busy trying to clean up the mess Aang made by disappearing for a century that he and Katara didn't have time to raise kids immediately.
Sure, beating the Firelord was a start, but that couldn't be the only thing that the Avatar needed to attend to. Setting up Republic City, posing for a giant damned statue of himself, building zoos, paying back the cabbage salesman for years of torment... Aang had a lot on his plate.
Agreed
Source: My wife and I met (and shortly started dating) when we were 15/16 in 2001, and we've been together ever since. I have an Aunt and Uncle that met when they were both 4 years old. They're both in their late 40s now. Still married, with 3 kids and a couple grand children. The scenario of a 12 year old boy and a 14 year old girl somehow being together the rest of their lives isn't exactly unheard of.

Two main things:
1. I had guessed at it, but I hadn't realized just how much the show was diminished by a lack of regular appearances of Iroh.
2. They really really advanced the technology way too much in making korra.
Just like Korra seems to be aimed at those that grew up watching TLA.
I'm not saying we should completely dismiss stuff outright, but lets try to take things in context.
SFDebris talks about this in part 1 of his Korra Book 1 review. There's a graphic novel series that takes place between the two television series, that covers some of the unrest in the post-TLA world. It's called The Promise.
I never finish anyth
Besides they have a pretty major advantage over us. A work crew assisted by firebenders and earthbenders (some with metalbending) could construct stuff with frightening speed.

The 100 year war had for the most part steam powered drills and zeppelins, though the zeppelins only came around in the last year of it (and there weren't any references to drills before that either) remember - it was a big deal in season 1 of ATLA when the balloon was just invented/made feasible as an aircraft, real world was at the balloon stage of flight for a couple hundred years before planes of that caliber came about. And I don't remember seeing anything like mecha tanks even in 2013.
I'm glad that they did advance the technology, it just seemed to me way too much and a lot of it looked to me like it was designed just to work in some steampunkesque looking machines.
