    Hey, quick question to people who are for Katara and Aang (which means that this one question will spark another huge debate in the complete opposite direction):

    Katara hugging Aang, has it ever been done for her emotional comfort rather than his? I ask this because, at the end of "The Puppetmaster" when Hema congradulates Katara for being a bloodbender, she starts to cry and Sokka and Aang try to comfort her. Instead of hugging Aang, or Sokka ( addressed to AKB to prevent incest shipping coming out of this), she just keeps crying.

    If her huggs were to provide her with emotional support and comfort, wouldn't she have hugged Aang?

    So, I guess that was actually two questions. Oh well.


    I don't see what diference it makes,I really don't care who she huged

    gee, I wish we could see a few minutes later ya know......... after all when Aang was hugging her, and Sokka was patting her back is when Bryke chose to finish the episode

    oh, but I forgot,(changes to sarcastic voice) if we don't see it, it doesn't happen, so I guess the only time Zuko saw Mai before his exile was when Azula asked him to play with them(Azula, Ty lee and Mai) and never between than and his exile

    Um... ok. I don't know where that came from.

    The point is, plenty of people have said that Katara's hugs with Aang are friendship and/or motherly in her eyes and not affection. I'm saying that this supports that theory because, if Aang was emotional affection for her, she'd want to hug him when she was crying, but that isn't the case.

    Hmm, I suppose you are right, but that was an entire group hug.

    Yeah, they totally should have talked about their kiss while everyone else was around and they were barely onscreen alone!

    unwritten rule number 1 of Bryke

    they will never show anything that would confirm or deny either zutara or kataang as long as possible

    we know that if it was real life THEY SHOULD HAVE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE KISS, but Bryke doesn't want to do that because of unwritten law number 1

    and what I wrote earlier was "gee, I wish we could see a few minutes later ya know......... after all when Aang was hugging her, and Sokka was patting her back is when Bryke chose to finish the episode" which was a way of saying WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE LAST SCREEN SHOWN AT PUPPETMASTER, she could have easily continued crying, than Aang hugged her and she hugged him back, or there was no hugging back from her, we don't know------- PLUS THE IMPORTANT THING IS THAT KATARA hugged Aang first in most of the other occasions(showing Katara was concerned about Aang), this time Aang is one who showed concern about Katara

    That's not true.
    But what is true is that in may Latin America Nick will air the last episodes on fridays, finishing on the last friday of May with a super all day special leading to the 2 hour Movie: Sozins Comet, followed by the trailer of:
    Avatar 2: Return Of The Revenge, With A Vengence!

    Anyway, on-topic.
    Even when the series ends, there will be shipping wars, as Zutarians have said many times, Zutara may not be cannon, but it's a "better" ship because of the story it implies, and there always will be the shipping wars for character that nobody cared about.

    Oh but didn't you hear WiseLad? Aang isn't capable of comforting Katara, only Zuko and his manly arms of angst are as proven by the trailer.

    Carlye thinks of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. The Same way I view Kataang and Zutara!

    Actually, I never said that last part, Spacerac. You see, this just goes to show you that all a person needs is a nudge in the right direction and then they'll figure out the rest for themselves, even if they don't like the right answer.
