>>149164218 (OP) Katara never had a chance. Sokka and Toph were just too chaotic so she never got to show off her wild side.

>>149164334 Both are seen as annoying busybodies that a lot of fans despise. But they're not even THAT annoying, they fit a role. Katara even less so, you can say that she's just a young girl who grew up fast but people take that as an excuse.

>>149164218 (OP) I hate Katara so much but I acknowledge that it's because she was the writers' baby and moral mouthpiece and refused to make her flaws negatively affect her as they should have.
>>149165801 This was the point, by the way. Old trick: if you want something in the show that might be too racy and the network objects, offer something even worse. The network will take the original, what you wanted to begin with, as a "softer alternative".
>>149169428 You could always go to /g/ learn the ways of image generation, download the character loras, prompt things like anime screenshot, change the aspect ratio to 4:3 like the show, gen the fire nation ladies as close to show accurate as you can but put them in sexy beachwear
>>149169947 No no. I need to see the original, real, canon swimsuits. AI and fan made pics are great. But the source material is the foundation that all fanart is based on. I want hand drawn sketches from the creators. Unfinished animatics. Model sheets.
>>149170767 I never expected nudes. Just the swimsuits. Like where would they even be today? On some server in California? In the personal filing cabinet of the artists?
>https://www.tumblr.com/theteashopgirl/787181071777349632/apparently-the-jin-book-is-great Take your bets on how they decide to ruin jin! Make her gay, pair her off for a literal who, or make her a girlboss earthbender?
>>149171570 >The video mentions an early book review. There were actually two editorial reviews that came out in May and the start of June from Kirkus Reviews and Booklist. These kind of pre-publication reviews are quite limited and will usually say something positive which the publishers can use/quote to promote the book ahead of its release. I expect fuller and more critical reviews when the book comes out.
>>149171584 >Kirkus Reviews (review posted online 16 May 2025)
>A 16-year-old refugee in a Chinese-inspired fantasy world delves into the mysteries of her new home in order to save a friend.
>Jin and her grandfather Gong-gong live in Ba Sing Seโs Lower Ring, struggling to get by with delivery jobs. Gong-gong, once an expert calligrapher, taught Jin enough to earn a scholarship to a literature academy, but now heโs often mentally absent and confused. Theyโre part of a torrent of refugees whose families and villages were destroyed by the Fire Nation. Despite this, Ba Sing Seโs brutal enforcers, the Dai Li, insist that there is no war. Still grieving her parents, Jin dreams of a more comfortable life for Gong-gong and her best friend Susuโs family. After Susu is forced to take a servant job in the Upper Ring, risking a life of abuse by a wealthy employer, Jin begins accepting hazardous delivery jobs from the underground resistance, hoping to help Susu. Although this series opener takes place during the timeline of the Avatar: The Last Airbender series and contains cameos by characters from that world, itโs well-developed enough to succeed as a stand-alone. Lin delicately balances themes of inequality, societal control, insularity, and the impact of war with Jinโs resolve to help Susu, her burgeoning earthbending skills, and the struggle for a better world. Jinโs quest for a love like her parentsโ leads to a realistic, supportive, slow-burn romance. A nuanced exploration of darker themes set in the world of the popular Avatar universe. (Fantasy. 12-18)

>>149171596 >So, as expected, Jin x Zuko/Jinko will appear in this book. But the main romance will be with another character (and I'm guessing maybe someone already mentioned in the book's blurb).
>>149171555 Damn, this actually looks like it might be good. Probably because it is a bit disconnected from Atla so the author could do her own thing with it.

>>149171856 >Last preview page My feelings on this IP remain the same; "I reject your reality and substitute my own." If you like Jin, do yourself a favor and dont buy this. Rip the ebook if you have to read this slop
>>149172477 They need to invent something to distract away from her cardboard looks and personality, please understand. Anytime you see this, just assume the thread is hanging on page 10 KEK

>>149171836 > A boy wearing an apron walks over with a scowl. His hair is short and spiky, sticking up all over the place. But what stands out the most about him is the prominent scar on his face, over his left eye. There's a dark patch that extends from his hairline down to his ear, the skin puckered and the ear mangled. A burn. "What are you looking at?" the boy snaps at me when he meets my eyes. I look away quickly, embarrassed to be caught staring. He brushes past me, and I have to step back so he doesn't knock me over. This book is going to turn off the few jinko fags still around by baiting them into a book that completely misses the point of what interested them in jin.

Which is? I personally think that Jin is simply the healthiest choice for Zuko and sheโs cute. What more do you need and what could be ruined?
>>149173771 She's confident hopeless romantic who knows what she wants and can easily slip past Zuko's brooding. This excerpt doesn't capture any of that... >I personally think that Jin is simply the healthiest choice for Zuko and sheโs cute. I haven't said otherwise >what could be ruined? See >>149171606>>149171615 This doesn't read like we're getting more tales of Jinko kino.
>>149173765 Itโs hard to tell if the author was mandated not to have the two become a couple or if theyโre too lost in their own sauceโฆ though if the book happens between Book 2 and 3 (judging by the preview) I guess that they couldnโt have made it official.
Though honestly I had hopes that it could end with her dating Zukoโฆ I had high hopes due to Mai breaking up with Zuko in the comicsโฆ
>>149173835 >>149173890 whether or not it was permanent or planned to be, Jinko mogs Maiko. Even normies look back on Jin's 1 episode fondly to this day. By comparison, Mai has become scorched earth because of the comics (except for the cannon cultists who will continue to eat up this slop because hurr mai has to be izumi's mom reeeee)
>>149164334 I think every character in King of the Hill had episodes where they were the annoying problem of the episode. Peggy just had a disproportionate amount where she was the worst and didn't face any real comeuppance for it.
>>149169464 >if you want something in the show that might be too racy and the network objects, offer something even worse. This is exactly how JohnK got the best jokes into Ren and Stimpy when he was fighting the censors at Nickelodeon.

>>149189015 Absolutely not. I was thinking of doing just that myself.
>>149191013 Zuko doesn't deserve her. He's got shit taste and dumped her for Mai of all people. No, Jin should be with someone who can truly appreciate her personality and her... assets.

>>149192134 azula likes jin so she could live her cuck fantasies through her and have jin bear an non-incestuous heir for azula to snatch up and raise in jin's stead
I've thought the show represented my dating history to a certain degree. I have dated a major, well adjusted mother women like Katara. Have dated severall bublly hyper feminie air heads like Tylee And had one hyper agressive fighter girl like who also turned out to be fucking insane like Azula I've dated a goth girls but none that are as emotionally mute as Mai. Currently going threw my tomboy Toph phase, the girl is a mechanic and pretty much acts like a guy.
>>149169173 >>149169378 I wish Mai and June had interacted at some point, it would have been kino. Is there any fanfiction where they do? >Both goths >Both easily bored cynics >Both world-class fighters despite being nonbenders >At the end of the series both are owed a massive favor by Zuko
They aren't exactly talkative characters, but there's a lot of cool stuff they could say or do to each other. Also, Mai's knife-throwing with June's shirsu venom would be OP as fuck.

>>149164218 (OP) If Katara was a fire-bender from birth, the entire story would've been improved.
>>149164334 Too be fair Peggy is only terrible so there can be a plot, thereโs a lot of times you end up rooting for her in the show. Like when sheโs learning to walk with Cotton or when she teaches Bobby why you donโt fight dirty to name a few. Peggy hill has a lot of reasons to dislike thatโs true but people forget about the good moments.
