    For like the 3 episodes leading up to the Finale there were major hints of Zutara!

    I'm not a supporter of Zutara or Kataang but why would they do that?

    And Toph is ALONE!

    No Tokka or Taang. Anyone else a bit upset about the finale? or is it just me?

    Plus the sudden Maiko intrest?

    I know she got thrown in jail to save him and that'd be unfair but still....

    MY MASTER PLAN OF ALL SHIPS HAS BEEN RUINED!

    oh well at least Toph didn't die.....

    Just because Katara forgave Zuko and helped each other out defeat Azula does not imply a romantic relationship. Its true that they developed a special relationship late in the season doesn't mean that they are more than friends.

    When I saw the title, I thought you were really talking about Air Ships.

    They'd make one hell of a kickass assassin team.

    it was sort of obvious to me that toph would end up alone, i mean aang loved katara and sokka loved suki.

    and maiko was for sure once TBR was shown. Zutara wouldnt happen after we saw how they reacted in EIP to the idea and after we learned that the hug in TSR was just friendly. although i wish the creators had sparked more of a love triangle, it would have been sort of interesting. i personally didnt back any ship but i made guesses as to which would prevail and i was right about kataang and george was obvious after TBR

    Oh heaven forbid a 12/13 year-old girl isn't involved in a romantic relationship.

    People are saying she's all alone as if she's never going to find anybody throughout her entire life.

    Also if the shipping wasn't resolved, the wars would have continued endlessly. Though there still seems to be no end in sight...

    Naww it ended up perfectly the way it should've been. Katara and Aang were meant to be together from the start. For you people who keep saing Zatara there are like two episodes the seige of Basingse and actually that's about it. Look at Kataang, the very first episode where sokka jokes about him bein her boy friend, the forutne teller where she says that katara is going to fall in love with a powerful airbender only to come to a realization that it's aang at the end of the episode, or the tail of the two lovers where katara is clearly flattered by the thought of kissing aang or the day of black sun where they kiss, or the fact that katara has implications of being with him just not during the time of the war in the fire island players and so many other countless episodes. Case made.

    OH I almost forgot, and the episode where aang enrolls in a fire nation school and he's dancing with the girl from class and katara gets jelous when sokka says that they looked good together; and the connection aang and katara make when they dance together

    There was a big clue on who Zuko will end up in 'Boiling Rock'. Zuko would be worse than a jerk if he didn't wind up with Mai.

    Ships destroyed?

    Nah, they're just proven not to be cannon.

    Oh well, I'm a Toko shipper, so I never expected my ship to be official.

    You guys are all forgetting that Toph hugged The Duke right at the end of the Finale. And he gave her his helmet to barf in during the Eclipse. If anything, the writers are implying that Toke is cannon.

    Oh my god you people who say that, shut up. Jesus Christ, so they have like two scenes together where they're nice to eachother and all of a sudden that implys they hook up. In that case, zuko and aang hug right before going out to the crowd where zuko is crowned king. OH MY GOD, that must mean Zuko and Aang are really together, oh well too bad for Mae and Katara, maybe they should hook up, OH WAIT no! Katara told toph was beautiful in that one episode that tells accounts of each of them in ba sing se. I mean come on!!! SHut up about Toph, she's not with anyone

    Honestly I think that all the ships will still be around. The shipping war was to prove which one would be canon and now that this war is over there is always imagination. I ship Kataang, George, and Maiko personally, but over time, I learned that the other ships had there reasons why they were started. Like Zutara for example: Fan girls imagine themselves as Katara and being with Zuko and vice versa. I'm pretty sure there's more to it than that, but to make my point, I've come to respect all of them(well, maybe not every one of them, like crackships which are funny). Besides, where's the fun in it all if you can't mix relationships for comedy or story.
