Incorrect arcane texts pt.3 bitches
Seriously. It also bothers me how so many of zukos colossal mistakes get written off because he felt felt bad and apologized, but god forbid one of the gaang, especially aang or katara, have a slightly unfair reaction and they are suddenly “toxic” or “annoying.”
I think the show itself feeds into this. Zukos arc is great but his join up with the gaang happened way too quickly. Realistically, Aang shouldve had a harder time accepting somebody who assisted in causing his literal clinical death. But the creators saw they only had a few eps til thr finale left by the time Zuko joined the gaang and decided they needed to include as many positive group interactions as possible. Everyones like “Aang is so forgiving tho!” Okay he can be forgiving and still be traumatiEd. Trauma is NOT. A competition but (lmao, the but. Im sorry i gotta say it tho) Aangs culture literally got genocided. Hes the one who lost the most, but because he always gets baxk up, his trauma is cast aside by the fandom. Like idk how many “gaang comforts zuko” or “gaang is protective of zuko” takes/scenarios i can stomach in such large quantity to anything else. First of all as if the rest of the gaang dont have to scale shitty experiences with life on their own. They all experienced tragedy except toph, but its only zuko who gets this immense level of sympathy?? It gets ANNOYING suffice to say.
I kinda get it cuz having absuive parents is far more relatable than everyone you know and love dying, but goddamn so many people in this fandom seem to hyperfocus on traumatized angst projection zuko and it low key pmo sometimes lol.
Obligatory zukos trauma is real and his arc is awesome. I enjoy his character in spite of the critique
I love Zuko but the fandom has a major problem infantilizing him
JUSTICE FOR MYLO SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPSSSDDD
Agree on the case of Vi, thats my GOAT and she was done hella dirty in s2.
Somewhat disagree on the take with Cait. I still like her character but i understand why many dont. Her src was never about becoming a dictator- it was about making a hard, “lesser evil” typa choice in the face of no better options (talkinh sb gassing the undercity rn). BUT what she did was still a terrible abuse of power, and by the end of the show, shes still at a place where shes justifying her actions. Im añl for complex characters, but they need to receive complex consequences. The narrative does not properly punish cait for what she did like it seems tp punish other characters , leaving her gray morality feeling unearned.
Mylo got too much hate over nothing, vi got so much hate over nothing, caitlyn got so much hate over nothing, and those are just some off the top of my head
I am so sad at the sheer lack of media literacy in this fandom.
mylo was a teen orphan who was struggling
vi watched everyone die and it’s easy to blame when your in pain. She didn’t take jinx away from a loving father, it was an abusive situation.
caitlyn was manipulated constantly and giving every hurdle and piece of propaganda that Ambessa gave her.
these are just to name a few, so many characters are hated for one aspect of their complex characters and it’s simply sad.
Mylo my baby he deserved sm better by the fandom 💔💔
