Who would win in a fight? Unlikely challengers edition.

Who would win in a fight between X and Y? Yes.

Many of us love to pose the "Who would win in a fight" question between alike characters, Iron Man vs Superman, Dwight Schrute vs Ron Swanson, One Punch Man vs Goku, for example. The truth is, these all come down to the writers decision (I think Stan Lee said something along these lines). However, I love this truth, because not every fight is a fair fight (unless unlimited resources + open field), especially when you mix superpowers in. The writers decide who wins. Even me vs Mike Tyson in a boxing ring, it sounds like a no brainer, but what if the writers had a stage light fall on Tyson's head before his final blow? Anything is possible in the world of writing. Any contender could claim victory.

That being said, I have created some matchups below just for fun, to really challenge our common "Aang vs Korra" or "Ozai vs Iroh" posts we see sometimes. See if you can come up with a winner in a few of these matchups. I would love to hear some other crazy challengers if you have any to offer!

  1. Zaheer with Airbending vs Ozai (non comet)
  2. Cabbage Man vs Dock, Xu, or Bushi, fighting over the last available merchant stall
  3. Kyoshi Warriors (incl. Suki) vs same number of Equalists w/ weapons (incl. Mustache guy), outdoor combat
  4. Momo vs Pabu, fighting over a heavy fruit
  5. Aang after coma vs Korra after paralysis, outdoor combat (I know, I said we see these two a lot)
  6. Southern Water Tribe Book 1 TLA vs Bolin and Mako's Ba Sing Se family equal ratio
  7. Mai vs Azula (black sun)
  8. Amon (during Equality rally) vs Ty Lee
  9. Asami vs Iroh (Pai Sho)
  10. Prime Kuvira vs Prime Azula (non comet), outdoor combat.

I knew this fandom was bad, but is sharing my thoughts and opinions on certain characters and their actions really THAT bad?

Just because I criticize or don't like your favorite character means I'm stupid and a fake fan? Just to set the record straight, i'm a diehard last Airbender fan and I grew up watching it. It's my childhood.

I don't hate Katara, I just don't love her as much as I used to. Re-watching the series she did so many things that annoys me. I see everyone criticizing Aang and Zuko like it's no big deal, but when I criticize Katara, it's like it's the end of the world. Again, I SWEAR I don't hate her. I just don't like her as much as I did when I was little.

This!! CREDIT: [thethiefandtheairbender] on tumblr

Katara being the only one not laughing just tells you how much she understood aang and his struggles. she may have never known how he truly felt and could never relate to him, but she knew how much his culture and people mattered to him.

Idk if this was asked before or not, but how would the stories go if Korra lived in Aang’s time and Aang in Korra’s?

I’m curious on how it’d go and not creative enough to edit the story in a way to make it work. How would you make it work? Does Korra still have her fist 3 elements mastered, how would Aang train under the white lotus? Would you make it so the water tribe was the one massacred or still the air nation? So many options!

Ps. If this was asked before can someone comment the link to the original

Katara's Yon Rha Confrontation Inquiry

I have a question, and I hope this doesn't rub people the wrong way. I do sometimes wonder how differently things would have turned out between Katara's and Yon Rha's final encounter, if there was one thing different.

For context, I agree that Yon Rha was supposed to be this reprehenstible cretin, and I find him rather loathsome as he exists now. But suppose that, in a different universe, the War had a completely different effect on him; the War changed him to being bitter and withdrawn. In such a world, he finds himself horrified by all of the vile acts he did in his past, and has entered a deep state of trauma and despair, and is essentially begging for it all to end...and then in comes Katara on a warpath of vengeance. In this different world, just as Katara begins to spit her words of anger and retribution against him, he not only admits to the crimes of his past, but also begs to be put out of his suffering.

How differently would this scene play out? Would Katara do the deed, or would her hand falter? How differently will Katara's view of the man she blamed for the death of her mother be when she sees this wretch at the lowest point in his life, or would she be unfazed?

The reason I ask is because I suffer from PTSD and a myriad of mental disorders; some of which manifest into nostalgia and frequent bouts of sitting in a dark room, cursing at myself for some of the things I've done and what I've been through, and I look at Yon Rha and think of some of the horrible things I've done in my past. But unlike Yon Rha, I've felt guilt over my past for years, whereas Yon Ra only felt guilt when it was convenient for him.

Again, this is not a defense of the vile Yon Rha.

How might the 2025 movie address Ursa?

Unless the movie pulls a Star Wars: Ahsoka and just assumes that the general audience is fully caught up on all media in the franchise, Ursa's fate would be a pretty big plot thread the general non-comic reading audience would want addressed since it's the major question the finale sets up.

toph with a gun is intriguing

Jokes aside, when guns are eventually invented in atla, the avatar with guns would be fucking sick. Imagine that- firing a bullet that they can literally make follow you- u show up ready for a bending fight and in comes the avatar,slinging guns with you seeking bullets. Fuckin awesome. And with tophs metalbending.. heheh imagine how easy shit would be with guns that take ur bending into account- maybe a tool that could pressurize water into a tight controlled shot, or a bullet that uses your earthbending to give it a strong pushback- ya get me?

Azula is literally the same as Cruella de vil from once upon a time

no, seriously, both azula and cruella in OUAT were sadistic unhinged psychos since their childhood (cruella with how she MURDERED her father and her stepfathers, azula, with what we saw in the episode "zuko alone" (how she had a smirk on her face when she heard her father tell Zuko about how she was born lucky while Zuko was lucky to be born, how she Threw large loaves of bread at turtleducks for her own amusement instead of feeding them like a normal person would, how she was hopeful that her uncle Iroh would get killed in war so that her father could be Fire Lord, the way she mocked iroh by calling him a loser and a quitter after iroh failed his siege at Ba Sing Se due to the death of his son, the way she Made fun of Zuko over the fact that their father was planning to kill him, the way she Taunted Zuko about their mother's banishment, and the way she had a big smile on her face when ozai burned zuko)

​

the difference between them however, is that with cruella from OUAT, the show is completely aware that she is just an evil sadistic psycho, while with azula, the show tries to humanize her and wants me to sympathize with her, even though she was ALWAYS a sadistic nutcase, just because she suddenly loses her mental health and because nobody loves her (even though she brought it on herself because of how much of a piece of shit she was)

​

like, the only way for me to feel sympathy for someone is if there was a time where they were a decent person before they fell into villainy. like, zuko, despite growing with ozai, always had morals and was showing standards against the fire nation's cruelty, and was scared when ozai got crowned as fire lord (unlike azula who clearly enjoyed it). like, if azula was in the war room where that general suggested they would use some soldiers as a distraction, would she also have spoken up against the general's plan? i don't think so. she will probably approve of it with a big thumb up.

​

see, both zuko and azula grew up with ozai, but zuko always had morals and standards while azula had none of those. another example of someone who was once a nice person is amon. he was once a nice kid and a good brother before his father started to train both him and tarlok in bloodbending. while i don't really feel bad for amon because of how extreme his actions are as an adult, it makes much more sense for me to feel sympathy for him them for azula, since he was once a nice kid who was ruined by his father, while azula was ALWAYS a sadistic nutcase.

​

hell, i'd sooner sympathy for lotso from toy story 3 than for azula. lotso was once a nice guy, until he was abandoned by his owner, unlike azula, who was a total piece of shit since chilhood.

​

and in moments like when ozai tells her he'll go to ba sing se alone and when she starts losing her sanity and hallucinating her mother, am i really supposed to feel for her in these moments? when ozai told her he'll be going to ba sing se alone, she was basically upset she don't get to commit GENOCIDE alongside him (a genocide which SHE GAVE HIM THE IDEA TO COMMIT), and when she was going insane and started hallucinating her mother, that's when it finally hit her how no one would want to be around an evil piece of shit like her.

​

like, the fact that she was lonely and that people were only with her out of fear never bothered her until ozai left her.
