#atla haru

Katara could have ended up with Haru, and Zuko could have ended up with Jin, which I would have been happier with than canon Kataang and Maiko. The added irony that Zuko and Katara both flirted with people from the Earth Kingdom.

[sapphic-agent]

Is it me, or is it super odd how Katara's love interests who aren't Aang are treated?

Like, Haru was given that god awful mustache and beard for what?? There's no way a storyboarder looked at that and thought, "Hey, that looks great!" It feels like they made him less attractive on purpose so that he couldn't be considered for a potential romance with Katara.

(Which is also shallow. Kataang fans complain that Zutara fans don't want Katara with Aang because he's unattractive, except Bryke did the exact same thing with Haru. He stopped being a love interest as soon as he got that mustache. They even go out of their way to point that out when Katara says she never had a thing with Haru when she did)

And then there's Jet. I know everyone was portrayed terribly and EIP and that was the whole point of the joke, but Jet's death? Katara, Sokka, and Aang just don't react? After he died helping them? Sokka even jokes about it???

And I know they also joked about Yue's death (which also kinda sucked), but at least Sokka was emotional. At least he cared. Jet was just completely brushed aside as an afterthought. Of course Katara can't have any feelings about it (even if it's not necessarily grief, but unresolved anger or hurt or whatever).

It feels like these actions were deliberate to push Katara towards Aang. And that's so unfair, not only for Katara but also for Haru and Jet. These were two great characters who deserved to be treated well

every avatar character is arospec by the way if you even care

[innocentimouto]

I doubt there will ever be a time where I will watch "Imprisoned" and not question how and why anyone could think that not making Haru a more central character is a good thing.

I am also increasingly confused on how people don't ship Haru and Katara more. The beautiful hair, the losing a parent to bending, the training without a teacher (mostly for Haru), the way Haru heard about Kya's necklace and said "it's not enough, is it?", Katara refusing to leave without saving his people, Katara downplaying her actions and Haru reaffirming how important she was, Haru wishing to somehow repay her in a similar way with her mom

Zuko is the sun, Sokka is the moon, Jet is a comet, Haru is the stars, and Suki is the galaxy. If that makes sense

I really liked the new live action but where the fuck was my boy Haru?

We got Jet, where is the other pretty guy?

[darklinaforever]

Why when Haru and Zuko exist, Katara had to end up with Aang ?! Seriously ?!

[anonymous-gambito]

The idea of everyone in the Gaang having a lil crush on Zuko is funny, but the thought of most of the kids on the Western Air Temple getting a crush on Ugly Mustache Haru is even funnier

Sokka unintentionally starts a twitter fight

Elimination Round: Haru Ships

Find Aang/Haru here Find Azula/Haru here

Despite his unfortunate choice in facial hair, heartthrob Haru gets put in a lot of ships! Maybe it's his starry-eyed hopeful spirit, or his willingness to stand up and throw down for the people he cares about. Maybe it's just that 2000's bishi swag. Either way, he has a lot of popular pairing options!

jet’s eyebrows vs haru’s mustache who’s winning
