Why Aang Not Being The Best Father Works?
A lot of people did not like Aang’s interpretation in LOK. I actually really liked it since it makes sense. Aang is one of the sweetest characters, but he didn’t have a parental example to follow and that plays a big role when you become a parent. Sure he had Monk Gyatso but only until he was twelve. Aang had to grow up without parents. Plus, he added this pressure to restore the Air Nation on himself and it clouded him for a lot of his life.
He just focused on Tenzin more because of his own pressure and wish to bring the Air Nation back. He also wanted to teach his youngest child how to hone his skills.
Aang definitely loved his children and never intentionally wanted his two eldest children to feel they way they did. He wholeheartedly accepted Kya when she came out, and I bet Aang is proud of all the achievements Bumi accomplished as a non bender.
I think some people expect protagonists to be perfect, but them making mistakes is what means to be human. Learning from them especially. Viewers need to know that making mistakes is okay, and how to grow from it.
Thoughts? 😊❤️

A failed legacy

My last fanart of the year! I wanted to show a scene that could have happened in s2 of Korra, where Bumi and Bumju come across this broken statue head in Air Temple Island, and he's confronted with yet another symbol of his failure as an airbender. I just wanted sad Bumi.
Also yes this is deeply inspired by that NGE poster.
some VERY rough sketches i made of bumi through the years.
probably not final designs, but i really like to think as he entered his 40s he leaned into the manly man wild man aura and his beard helped him score many dates. before that he still went for the dashing young man aura.
