are you talking about chojuro? his father was in seven swordsman of the mist? wow I think I skipped this arc ☠️, I don't think there's a swordsman of the mist in the Boruto series (that ofc I gave up on because those damn writers ruined so many of characters but anyways) speaking of kisame why didn't we get at least get a filler about their adventures together only time we really see him, or zabuza, and haku they're fighting for their and unhappy. lmfao I happen to hyper fixate on particularly on side characters so I get it completely all I do is ramble and ramble on.

so apparently suigetsu has (had ig) an older brother? mangetsu I think was his name. he was with the seven swordsman of the mist the group that killed gai's father might dai, like who was he fr? who strong was he? how were his and suigetsu relationship? i'm just a little confused

did sozin really ban same sex relationships?

‘Just because you are a better person today does not mean you are entitled to my presence in your life.’

- What Lin said to Suyin in my imagination to help me cope with the fact that the writers allowed this tasteless and inconsiderate reconciliation to take place. 

there are a lot of bad takes in the atla fandom (like, atla fandom may as well be a bad take generator) but something that has really been pissing me off lately is the assumption that you can categorize the fire nation royal family into good guys and bad guys. first of all, obviously, they're all bad guys. they are imperialists. but the idea that "sozin ozai azula bad" and "iroh lu ten ursa zuko azulon(?!) good" is actually insane.

lu ten died attempting to conquer the earth kingdom. lu ten was there because his father, iroh, was leading the siege. ursa laughed when iroh joked about burning ba sing se to the ground. zuko laughed too, mirroring his dear mother who taught him about the wonders of imperialism. and the fact that some people think that azulon was a good guy because he favored iroh is crazy. he favored iroh because iroh was the better imperialist, was more charming and tactically savvy as he bent the world to his will. people who think that azulon didn't like ozai because ozai was cruel literally have it backwards. ozai was cruel because azulon didn't like him. sozin shaped azulon, and azulon shaped iroh and ozai. azulon reigned for most of the war, and he was responsible for decimating the southern water tribe and colonizing the earth kingdom.

iroh only realizes the error of his ways well into middle age, after spending a majority of his life colonizing the world. he only stops to reconsider once he experiences the adverse effects of war for himself through the loss of his son. likewise, zuko can only gain empathy for the victims of the war by being one himself, as a refugee in the earth kingdom, and bonding with people who have been hurt by the fire nation. azula doesn't get that chance. ozai doesn't get that chance. azulon, lu ten, and ursa are dead, so they will never get that chance. but it's not like there is some ontological moral divide separating azula from zuko. zuko was a sensitive child whereas azula was better at embodying fire nation values of power and cunning. zuko was punished for his outbursts whereas azula knew how to keep her mouth shut. therefore, zuko experienced circumstances that led him to disavow fire nation imperialism.

but that doesn't mean that azula is ontologically evil. azula was the iroh of her generation to zuko's ozai, and iroh (eventually) disavowed conquest as well. there is no inherent divide between good and bad, monster and human. ursa was a warm and loving mother to zuko, just as iroh was a warm and loving father to lu ten, but they both laughed at others' suffering. their values were shaped by their circumstances and experiences. their ideologies do not make them less human, or less capable of change, just as their interpersonal behaviors do not negate their abhorrent ideologies.

do u ever just look at people and think fuck off

the holy trinity of criers…..

real quick, whenever I see this look on bakugo's face I think "damn, he's thinking back about his treatment of izuku" he's pissed, hurt, destroyed that he bullied and humiliated every single day this boy he always envyed, always loved always strived to act like, then when he gets a quirk, they both attend ua, they both tassel so many trials and wins together, and he finally admits he never hated him..he looses ofa and now he sits there like "was it all for nothing??" "was there no purpose after all??" "can we still be heroes together??" lol idk I just thought of it.

arguing over which Avatar had the worst “failures” just shows that you do not understand the story whatsoever. the whole point of the Avatar being reborn over and over is that the work of keeping balance in the world is never done and the world needs different things at different times, and no matter what good you do there are unintended consequences which is WHY the Avatar always comes back. There is no end-all-be-all fix. I’m really so over this nonsense arguing over “who’s the worst Avatar.” every Avatar has to adapt to their time and every Avatar has successes and failures and every single Avatar leaves consequences for their successors! That’s the whole point!!!! Being the Avatar is a never-ending job because the world is always changing. What was right for one time won’t be right forever, THAT’S WHY THE AVATAR ALWAYS COMES BACK
