at_signLegend of Korra, Episode 6 (yeah, so I'm stuck one week behind).
-I love Lin Beifong beyond all reason. I also love the announcer guy beyond all reason. I cannot decide which of these characters I love more, actually.
-I wanna see Avatar State stuff and/or Aang already. Korra needs to get into this spiritual side of Avataring! WHERE IS MY BLUE GLOWY STUFF, BRYKE?
-Embarrassed Tenzin is really, adorably funny. Yes. Also, Korra teasing him is fun.
-This is the episode I have wanted to see since I heard Lin was going to be a character. She has MOVES and she is made of steely resolve and awesomeness and oh my God I love her so very very much. I declare myself married to her on the Astral Plane, which is fitting because her character has been cemented as Fandom!Snape by the events of this episode.
-Poor announcer guy, though. Talk about dedicated reporting: "I am currently wetting my pants."
I love this show. I keep coming back to this: I read some whitewashing debacle, whatever the week has to offer, or yet another "x% of main characters in y genre are female, which is way low" (or I play yet another RPG where either you can't play a woman but you can play a man of any color real or not, or you can play a man or a woman as long as you don't mind being white and the woman wearing a chainmail bikini) and I think to myself, "boy, why can't [books/films/shows/games/etc.] be more like Legend of Korra?"
Filled out my sample ballot today with baby sister, who is voting for the first time. Very exciting and, with California's new open primaries, quite a lot of work. I'm reasonably confident on my selections though.
