    Was just rewatching Jet and City Of Walls and Secrets. I really don't get why so many fans are shocked at Katara's anger to Zuko in WAT. It's so parrallel to the whole Jetara parody. She absolutly went beserk at Jet when she saw him again, and the fact she was betrayed again by Zuko (poor trustful Katara). Well i'm surprised she didn't kill him. Lets just hope Zuko doesn't die.
    It's not that, they just want to believe her talking about her mother to Zuko is Zutara proof when she tells everyone about her mother.
    Actually, FYI, their interaction and its parallels to Jet and Katara's is what got me started thinking that they'd end up together. Ever since episode 14, I knew Katara and Aang would not be together in the end, but, until TFM, it never clicked in my head that she'd be with Zuzu.
    Episode 14 is the one where Aunt Wu tells Aang of "destiny" and gives him hope to be with Katara. How could you think after everything in the show that's happened between them that they wouldn't end up together? This show makes a point of making the Kataang so obvious the universe might as well fall on your head. Also Katara's crush on Jet took place before episode 14, when the show let the audience know that Aang likes Katara. It wasn't until then that the main couple was clear.
    True. But I just have a quick question for Kataangers. What do you guys think was the purpose of jetara? I know Zutarians think it foreshadows zutara, what with the affection, then betrayal, then forgiveness cycle thing, but what do you guys think the purpose was? What purpose does jetara serve to the kataang story? Or is the same thing as us, and the romantic feelings for Jet were added in to make the stories different? I'm just curious here.......
    It was to show what Katara would look for in a boy and that she disliked getting betrayed by a boy.

    Episode 14: I'm just saying what I thought and since when.

    Jet and Katara's relationship: It shows that she doesn't hold back feelings of love.

    So Jet, tall dark and handsome, is what Katara looks for in a guy? Makes you wonder.....

    and doesn't like getting betrayed? I don't know about you, but I don't think anyone likes that very much, particularly if its someone you fancy. it would have been smarter for you to say "its to show how Katara will forgive Zuko for his betrayal - she learnt her lesson when she almost didn't forget Jet in time. Jet helped her learn how to forgive Zuko when he finally joined the group"

The smarter thing to say would be "Jet was there to show how Katara would forgive Zuko. Jet's purpose was to teach her to forgive zuko, since their stories were so similar," or something like that, because that's true and doesn't really help zutara much (as opposed to the other things you said)
    Jet also died just like how Zuko will die! Also that doesn't mean that they will 100% get together. Aang and Katara deserve to be together. What a twist!!!!!!1!!!!!1!!!!1!!!eleven

    That was what she liked. She wanted the typical archetype of a boy (which is Zuko). Now she has thought about Aang as a possibility since The Fortuneteller. And there's that too, the "lesson learned" thing. I forgot about that.

    I could've said that rtoo. (and truthfully, Zutara is too far dead to be helped at all now )

    She does have a point, Space. Saying it's to show that Katara doesn't like to get betrayed is kind like saying that Roku's message to Aang during 201 was to show why Aang won't want to die.

    I know. I was thinking that's what it was meant to show, bu that it could also go for anyone, and that the focus was just on Katara. When in actuality I should have gone deeper than that, which that was just on the surface.

    I'd agree, but none of the other the other main characters have been betrayed by their romantic partner. Heck, the only two main characters that have dealt with betrayal (in one form or another) are Katara and Zuko. Take that for whatever you think it is worth, but the point remains that Aang, Toph, and Sokka haven't needed to endure it and it doesn't look like they will.

    I have no opinion or care about it either way. If you guys really are a couple outside of the internet, congrats and no, I didn't see it coming.

    Damn, you have bested my argument. :p

    Seriously, though, it was to show how Katara acted when she loved someone and that she's willing to forgive.

    Not me. Finale will settle everything unless Mike and Bryan pull a really lame conclusion that doesn't answer the "Who will Katara end up with" question. If such is the case, I'll pull out because it won't be worth arguing.

    I don't even understand why this fight is still going on. Some Zutarians must be in major denial or something. Believe me, I've always been a major Zutara supporter and I still am, but it's just not going to happen in the show. It could have, but the writers just decided to go in a different direction. It's not the end of the world. There is still fanfiction.

    There's that. I think that Katara wouldn't act like that towards Aang because she probably doesn't love him, but she was still considering him as a possibility.
