Either way, forcing her into a state where her bending abilities are amplified REALLY isn’t a good idea.

@Jarkes  
Again if she hadn’t been so physically strong the 3 of them could have killed her, but she was able to break loose of the chains, and from there shit went down hill fast,

@Thanotos Omega
 
Yeah, pretty much.

@Jarkes  

 
I mean Zaheer’s plan was to break the avatar cycle so they wouldn’t be reborn, which kind of requires her to be in the Avatar state.
 
But yeah, Book 3 was amazing. Top Tier Avatar stuff

And there we go. I finally finished Korra.
 
Yeah, people saying that Korra and Asami hooked up at the last minute are full of crap. There was plenty of hinting towards it.

@Jarkes  

@Jarkes  
Really, where? I sure didn’t see it.
 
@Angrybrony  
Who dat?

@Thanotos Omega
 
Not even just that, there were a few other bits here and there.

Although frankly I have no desire to read the post-series comics since from what I’ve heard they fell into the same “let’s derail characters for forced conflict” stuff that the original series comics ended up in.

Also, I was surprised to learn that Joshua Hamilton was one of the main writers for Korra (along with Tim Hedrick).

@Jarkes  
nothing i have seen shows that, all the complaints i have heard about Korra’s comics are about them admitting that Homophobia is a thing and that Kyoshi was Bi,

@Jarkes
 
Korrasami still came from (almost) nowhere and ended nowhere.

@Thanotos Omega
 
I meant more making President Raikoh WAY more of a petty, self-serving jerk than he ever was in the series (he was abrasive and stubborn, but he was reasonable enough).

@Jarkes  
Oh, well yeah but he was still a massive dick, like kicking Korra out of republic city over the spirit vines,

@Thanotos Omega
 
Yeah, there was that.

@Dustcan  

Everbody in MK 11 is straight up roasting Kung Lao every time. All the character intros against Kung Lao boil down to: Liu Kang better than you.
 
There are two characters that becomes everyone’s favorite joke material in MK 11.
 
Kung Lao, and Frost.

@tehwatever  
tbf Frost deserves it.
 
Kung Lao, not so much.

@Jarkes  
who was writer & main artist on those?

I’m friends with this guy named DaLinkster and he used a 3D printer to make chocolate anime thighs.
 

@Holofan4life  
…why?

@Phantom Rider  
Because anime thighs save lives

I just finished watching Love Live and Love Live! Sunshine!! for the first time. Because of this, here are my honest, somewhat rambling impressions. Or, how Holofan4life decided to join the bandwagon and embrace Idol Hell.
 
*Maki is best girl of the whole Love Live franchise. Why? Because she’s a tsundere.
 
*The four best developed characters in my opinion were Maki, Nico, Eli, Dia. Of them all, I felt Nico was the most well written character.
 
*I love Yohane. She’s like Satania from Gabriel Dropout if Satania was an idol girl.
 
*I honestly felt a lot of the main girls in Love Live were forgettable. The only ones in my opinion that were memorable of the nine were Maki, Nico, Eli, and the molester. By comparison, I remember eight of the nine main characters in Love Live! Sunshine!! I remember Chika, I remember You because she’s a thirsty lesbian, I remember Yohane because she’s hilarious, I remember the Zura girl, I remember Ruby because she’s the cutest, I remember Dia, I remember Mari because of her Engrish (Sorry. I don’t speak Japanese!), and I remember the other red haired girl.
 
*I feel Chika is a better protagonist than the main protagonist in Love Live, whoever it was.
 
*I feel the first season of Love Live! Sunshine!! was the weakest because it was a rehash of Love Love! However, I thought the second season of Love Live! Sunshine!! was the best because it did things differently.
 
*The animation of Love Live! Sunshine!! is better than the animation of Love Live!
 
*I think Love Live! Sunshine!! is better than Love Live! because Love Live! was about success, whereas Love Live! Sunshine!! focused more on failure and learning to deal with it.
 
*I love Dia’s mole.
 
*Nico Nico Nii
 
*Nico’s mom is hot. I Nico Nico Need water because she’s got me sweating.
 
*I was surprised there wasn’t more of an emphasis on singing. Both shows had songs, but I was expecting at least one new song per episode. It’s not a bad thing, it just surprised me.
 
*I love Chika and her obsession with oranges.
 
*I like how two episodes in season 2 of Love Live! Sunshine!! focused on two characters outside the main cast.
 
*Episode 11 of season 2 of Love Live! Sunshine!! nearly made me cry at the end during the scene involving Mari.
 
*Did I mention Maki best girl of the franchise? Because Maki best girl of the franchise.
 
Anyway, those are my observations! I hope I did my Rubesty!
