How Korra's second season SHOULD start!!

[brendala]

I will be massively disappointed if this scene doesn't happen within the first 10 minutes of Korra's second season.


I drew this in five minutes because my break was almost over when the idea struck. I think it came out pretty good considering it was rushed.

I'm guessing you're not a big Mako fan? :)

I thought I would enjoy both the brothers, but Mako's character just went downhill over the course of the first season.

WORD! He started out likable. But then his primary character conflict suddenly went from "How can my brother and I get by in this harsh city?" to "Which chick should I bang?".

LOL. How could you tell?

Seriously, it REALLY bugged me how the writers degraded his character over the course of the first season. At first, I really liked him. Yeah, he was a jerk. But I identified with his drive to care for his naive younger brother in a rough city. And it would have been nice to see him loosen up and learn to let go a little via his friendship with Korra and his relationship with a fun-loving gal like Asami.

But, instead of that, we saw Mako's primary character conflict go from "How can my brother and I get by in this harsh city?" to "Which chick should I bang?".
IMO, his two-timing sluttyness came out of nowhere and felt out of sync with how he had been previously characterized. And to top it off, HE FACED NO CONSEQUENCES FOR JERKING THEM AROUND AND GOT EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTED IN THE END!!!

I do wish we could have seen a flashback or two of their childhood. Since Mako said he fought hard to ensure the both of them would survive, THAT'S the Mako I liked! Or even a glimpse of their parents' faces...
