“Avatar: The Last Airbender” is about children; There is romance on the show, but it is always a supportive detail of history. Aang (Zach Tyler Eisen) is linked in Katara (Mae Whitman), Sokka (Jack de Sena), who maintains both Princess Yue (Johanna Braddy) as well as with the warrior Suki (Jennie Kwan) and Prince Zuko (Dante Basco) . Has a relationship with May (Cricket Leigh).
“The Legend of Korra” is about young adults, ie people whose romantic relationships and secular views are still crystallizing. So, “Legend of Korra” researches various political ideologies (An area in which the show, which is in a way pioneering progressively, is in dispute) and reinforces the soap of the romantic stories.
In Book 1 of “The Legend of Korra”, Korra joins two brothers, the fire, the fire Mako (David Faustino) and Earthbender Bolin (PJ Byrne), a team of “Pro -Bending” athletes. Bolin likes Korra (first), but she only has eyes for Mako. However, Mako hesitates more; While he flirts with Korra, he also begins to go out with Asami (they meet when she accidentally falls against him on her motorcycle). After all, he chooses Korra, but he doesn’t do it correct Also break with Asami.
In Book 2, Korra and Mako’s relationship meet the rocks and they separate in episode 5, “Peapekeepers”, they separate. Then in the following episode “The Sting”, while Korra is gone, Asami Mako kisses on impulses and they seem to come back together. Then Korra returns with amnesia, which apparently forgot that you and mako separated, and Mako, even if Asami observes, does not correct it! And then it turned out that Korra reminded of the separation that she only pretended to avoid the difficult conversation.
After this exhaustion, most (although not all) were happy to see Book 2 with a constant Kibosh on “Momorra” and “Masami”.
When “The Last Airbender” was broadcast, many fans sent “Zutara”, which means that Katara and Zuko come together. That didn’t happen; The series ended with Aang and Katara, who finally kissed, and “Legend of Korra” confirmed that they were together until the end of Aang’s life (with three children).
Many have speculated that the combination of Mako and Korra was a make-good for the Zutara fans by combining two generally similar characters (brave waterbending girls and anxiety fire boys). But the sparks weren’t there and it didn’t help that Mako is also a pretty boring character. When Korra and Mako announce that they love themselves in the final of the first season “Endgame”, it falls flat.
