It's the relationship between 2 characters and the shippers are the fans of that relationship. The biggest ones are Kataang (Katara/Aang) and Zutara (Zuko/Katara). Their are TONS of different kinds, but these 2 are dealing with WWIII right now, lol |
Compared to other shows, the shipping rivalry here is very polite, IMO.

While I think there's even less hope for the Taangers than there is for the Zutaras (in terms of the ship becoming canonical), you're absolutely right: Jessie isn't saying that Toph will end up with Sokka. She's simply stating things from Toph's viewpoint as it is in the series. Jessie doesn't care about ships and didn't know about them until the interview, so her statements are more coming from the standpoint of what the directors told her in terms of why her character is crushing on Sokka's character. For the record, I seriously doubt Tokka will actually happen, unless the series goes beyond the three book arc and Toph, y'know, grows up and Sokka somehow notices . . . |
Hmmm good point.

I'm not taking Jesse's opinion as some kind of "assurance" that Tokka will happen, I don't know why everyone thinks that. I just don't wanna have to deal with, "Well, even Toph's voice actress wants Toph to end up with Sokka, so there" stuff, even though if she had said Aang, I'd be saying it all over the place. I don't know, it just seems kinda like a big hit to me when even the voice actor/tress of my favorite character on a show, likes a ship that I most definately dislike, hate and abhor and any other word like that. *Sigh* But whatever I guess, it's just another one of those things I'm gonna have to think up an excuse for in case Tokka shippers use it to deny Taang. |
Ditto. ^_^
