uhm... i think i blacked out while drawing. its not the same but similar to @allgremlinart sokka design there. my apologies!

A compilation of stuff I know about drawing Asian faces and Asian culture! I feel like many “How-To-Draw” tutorials often default to European faces and are not really helpful when drawing people of other races. So I thought I’d put this together in case anyone is interested! Feel free to share this guide and shoot me questions if you have any! I’m by no means an expert, I just know a few things from drawing experience and from my own cultural background. 

InuYasha & The Final Act - Magazine Scans

(From chapter 494, vol 50, y'all know the scene) ... is a very clear marriage proposal. He's saying if she wants him forever, he'll protect her forever, too. He's pledging himself to her for longer than just the Naraku journey. I know it's not a very "western" way to propose but I've still been surprised how many people can't read between the lines of either scene. So like... this is my plea to let them love each other, in conversations, fics, whathaveyou. Because they really really do, and both have always been on board for it.

When it comes to the discourse about Katara's feelings in regards to being in a relationship with Aang, I feel like this moment from the finale often gets overlooked despite it being incredibly important. I believe this is for two reasons: 1 - The moment itself is relatively short. 2 - The moment in question occurs in the first scene of episode 3x20, the one where all of the characters begin their final push against the Fire Nation; therefore, it feels like what happens here is often forgotten about in comparison to everything else that happens afterwards. Regardless of this, I love how Katara responds to Zuko's worried feelings about Aang losing by responding with: "Aang won't lose. He's gonna come back. He has to." I totally understand and (partially) agree with people who wanted to see a conversation between Aang and Katara addressing what happened at the Ember Island Play in a separate scene before the final kiss at the end of the series. That is a completely valid thing to want. That being said, I think that what we did end up getting still works in that Katara's feelings about Aang are made clear to the audience without her having to explicitly say that she loves him. Some parts of the fandom will try and say that Katara was confused about the prospect of being with Aang because of her not knowing if she loved him in a romantic way; however, I feel that this moment at the beginning of the penultimate episode of the series pretty clearly shows that this wasn't what she was confused about. She was confused on if being with Aang before the war was over was the right choice given that one or both of them could be killed in the ensuing fight. Katara and Aang are the heart and soul of the show so it makes sense why the story ends with them beginning their romantic relationship, but I think from a broader perspective, it also helps convey the idea to the audience that these characters, among all of the others as well, can finally rest, recoup, and love each other to the fullest extent without the fear of the Fire Nation taking that away from them. Katara grew to love and believe in Aang, and I think this moment exemplifies that so well that I wanted to give it some recognition.

Once the specific obstacle she mentioned as being what was preventing her from wanting to start the relationship, she's the one who comes out and initiates it with him. She was ready for that all along, but just wanted the war complete first. As noted above, it's really symbolic of hope for the post-war world that these two teenagers can then establish what they've been wanting all along - some sort of normalcy and the relationship they've both desired for much of the series.

So her saying that Aang is going to come back, that he has to come back, is so clear in conveying what Aang means to her. And Katara having that faith in Aang makes complete sense, because he always has come back to and for her the entire series. He even defied death for her.
