    And that Zutara will happen, the hug will turn into a kiss that will last more than two seconds, Taang will happen, and they will live happily ever after.
    Taang can't happen.
    1. The creators said they would use the ships they thought of at the very beginning.
    2. At the very beginning Toph was a dude.

    Just saw the preview for the first time. We don't know which happened first, the Zutara hug or the Kataang kiss. That'd change some things.

    How? I don't see the order changing anything.

    Call me fear or Nick.
    Well, maybe Koko or something.
    It's hard thinking of ships!

    Honestly, I want Kataang, but if Zutara happens it won't TOTALLY break my heart. Either way Avatar is amazing and either ship has a lot of complexity and soul in it, and that's what I want. As long as the ship makes sense. If Zutara is the ship that will make Avatar even more amazing than it already is, then I'm all for it, but I still think Kataang will happen. I just have a gut feeling about, and my gut feelings are never wrong.

    Aang's not really a child though. He's 112 technically, and he has more responsibility than ANYONE else in the world. No "child" can defeat the most powerful nation in the world, or come even close to mastering all the elements in a few months. All the other avatars took years and years of practice. Look at Roku, i think it was 12 years for him to master everything. It's taken Aang about half a year to master air, water and earth, and very soon fire. Aang is definitley not a child anymore. He's grown up both physically and mentally.

    Grown up? Remember WAT? Allow me to do some paraphrasing of a scene early in the episode.

    *The real Gaang (no stooges) sits down*

    Aang: So what's the new plan?

    Sokka: You need to master the elements and beat Ozai before the comet comes.

    Aang: Who'll be my firebending teacher?

    Rest of the Gang: Hmm... good question. We don't know.

    Aang: Oh well, we can't think of anyone. Let's go play. I want to show you guys a game table and an echo room instead of practicing to save the world.

    *End Scene*

    Yeah, he's really grown.

    Yeah, he's really grown.

    ....So feeling sad about losing, and worried about mastering an element in the space of a few weeks suddenly constitutes immaturity? If I had the daunting task of not only looking for a firebending teacher, but mastering a martial art in the space of a few weeks, I'd want to goof off. Now here's a quote that shows Aang's maturity.

    Aang: We've been looking everywhere for you. The boats are ready to leave.

    Sokka: (still disappointed with himself) I messed up, Aang.

    Aang: What?

    Sokka: The invasion plan was my moment of truth. And I completely flopped it. I just fell apart.

    Aang: Sokka, (walks up to him and places a hand on his shoulder) that speech wasn't your moment of truth. That was just public speaking and nobody's really good at that.

    Sokka: My Dad is. He explained the plan perfectly and inspired everyone. Like a real leader should.

    Aang: Look, your moment of truth isn't going to be in front of some map. It's going to be out there, (points to the vast ocean in front of them) on the battlefield.

    Sokka: You seem so confident about everything. How do you know we're going to win?

    Aang: Because I already failed the world once at Ba Sing Se. I won't let myself fail again.

    Oh yeah, he's so immature, he's like a 6 year old!

    Seriously, Aang has been growing and getting mature since day 1. Katara said it herself 'you're not that goofy kid I found in the iceberg anymore.' One of the main themes of the show is his journey from a goofy airheaded kid into an all powerful Avatar. So no, Aang is no longer immature.

    Thanks for being a good sport about the Avatar pairings. We need more people like you around.

    Taang can't happen. 1. The creators said they would use the ships they thought of at the very beginning. 2. At the very beginning Toph was a dude.

    I hope the Zutarians don't go crazy and declare victory. Sure, things have changed. Zutara could happen. Kataang has taken a hit. But those scenes are completely out of context.

    Why was Katara pulling back? Was she not interested in a relationship with Aang? Did she like Zuko instead? Did she not want romance on her mind, or Aang's mind, during this time? Was she being crazy and kissing Aang then pulling back? (M&B have done that kind of thing before, with Sokka and Yue) Or was she just surprised? We don't know.

    Why was Katara hugging Zuko? Was she forgiving him? Was she accepting him? Did she have romantic feelings for him? Was it an entirely platonic hug? We don't know.

    Kataang's stone has been cracked. It is still the dominant one, and still the one I support, but there is no conclusive evidence that either Kataang or Zutara will happen.

    I'll bet that kataang kiss in the trailer happens right before Aang flies off to fight the Firelord, then Katara says something like 'oh no, this time you're not kissing me before you go to face your destiny!' Something along those lines..

    It'll be pretty comedic.

    Then she'll go into some sob story about how she could never bear to lose Aang, and if Aang was her boyfriend the pain would be much worse, so she doesn't want to get closer to him right before he faces Ozai.

    Basically like watching an animated soap opera.

    forget it, it's the second time, I dont think she's happy at all, it's way more obvious that she's not in love with him.

    I can't prove that you are wrong, but you can't prove that you are right. The truth is, we can't know from two 3 second clips.

    And about the Zutara hug? Yeah, if Zutarians use that as evidence, then the 10 or so Kataang hugs in the past count, too.
