I shall, I have been busy with actual work lately but once i get some time I plan on posting stuff in the Affray Patchworks thread that I made.
New designs and the like.

It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.

Hell yeah I really enjoyed The Legend of Korra. She was a lot more headstrong to that of Aang, and I really liked how she marveled in the glory of being the new avatar whereas Aang was a bit of a pussy...

Here's a tribute song I did for The Legend of Korra, it's not directly about the cartoon but it inspired me to write it :D

Enjoy

I watched em. Korra is my new favorite avatar. She's more willing to get things done and damn the consequences!

Compared to Aang who went around feeling sorry for himself over the idea of the impending fight where he must kill the firelord. I like Aang, dont get me wrong. But Korra has a more productive attitude.

Aang was thoughtful and had a conscience, not to mention an incredible badass. Not that Korra doesn't have a conscience, but still. He was raised in an isolated world of tranquility. Korra was raised in a much harsher place. And, if you want to compare the two, Korra got herself trapped and in deep trouble more times in a short season than Aang did in an entire series. He thought about things before he did them, which is why he saved entire villages/cities/groups of people time and time again. If you think he was a pussy or weak or whiny for not wanting to kill Ozai, clearly you weren't paying enough attention to the entire show.

Have to disagree with this. He was ridiculously whiny over having to kill Ozai. And it wasnt even warranted.
Aang had killed before, or do you believe that there were just trucks full of pillows waiting at the bottom of the cliffs where he knocked fire nation off the side of the cliff of the northern air temple, as well as in a few other episodes I believe.

And I'm sure all of the fire nation navy that he destroyed protecting the southern water tribe managed to swim to shore and survive in the frozen wastes right?

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak for me.

Rule of cartoons, if they don't say they died, they didn't die. So yep, all those people lived.

I thought it was made pretty clear in the show that Aang grows A LOT over the course of the events of the series. As the show progresses he makes it obvious that he doesn't actually want to hurt or kill anyone. He becomes more careful with his actions because of the ramifications he sees them having. It's really easy for me to believe that, when being faced with the prospect of killing someone whose death would quite literally change the course of the entire world, he's going to have a hard time making that choice. Also, his turmoil over whether or not to kill Ozai is, in my opinion, an analogy about the ethics behind dealing with threatening and dangerous foreign world leaders.

Does anyone know when the official air date is for the second book/season?  I've read everything from it being a couple weeks away, to a couple months away

Nope, noone knows when the air date is. I even talked to Janet Varney over the weekend (she was a guest at the anime convention I was at) and she said that they originally THOUGHT it would be out this month, but that was not the official stance and now she has no idea when.

I love the show, so looking forward to season 2.  I still like the last airbender a little bit better though even though it was shamed by that live action movie :angry: !!!!!  The only good thing that is coming out of that is the Nostalgia Critic's review that should be coming out anyday.  :lol:

Gah are any good guys actually good guys on this show?

After 2 or 3 episodes all the good guys turn out being bad guys.. it's giving me trust issues.
