But we know the Kyoshi Warriors are going to be in it and Suki is a fairly major character. Her mum has been cast. So we can expect to see some time spent with these characters. So it doesn’t appear to be a pacing thing. And it’s like they’re announcing to the world we’ll see the Kyoshi warriors but now with even less conflict? Huh? They proudly announce that the sexism is gone, despite the fact it was character growth. They’re removing the rough edges from a children’s show for a supposedly more mature adapatation for what????

I don’t want dark and angsty ATLA, I still want the humour and sense of adventure, but I wouldn’t be mad at a show that gave more time to develop some of the darker themes and plot elements. So more develop what is already there then create new darkness

However Hadoka leaves Sokka in charge despite also thinking he’s incompetent? Okay???? Weird choice? Hadoka looks a bit stupid now? Like they could leave one warrior behind lol.

c) It shows Sokka's flaws and also his strengths. It shows that he's a sexist idiot but it shows that he was always ready to move past it. He drops the sexism to learn from Suki because he recognises shes a great warrior. You know what is more important than pride to Sokka? Leading and protecting his new friend and sister, and his tribe. So he eats the humble pie and learns from the woman warrior. He was always a good boy, he was just immature. But the sexism plot highlights what makes Sokka Sokka. Sexism is a byproduct of Sokka's immaturity, and him being put into this protector position (in that he was the oldest boy and told to protect people. that's going to give you some weird expectations) that really shouldn't be asked of him in the first place but the world is at war and it's fucking up these kids. It's a good mini character arc, showcases future development of Sokka becoming a leader and also expands the world.

I’m not saying their version would be good but it’d be interesting to see
