waking up to an AoT episode. Few ways to wake up better
Speaking of which, the OP. It's a nice song, but it does not fit AoT at all (perhaps partly because Linked Horizon didn;t perform that song?).

me when people say Avatar LoK is objectively terrible: First, perhaps your nostalgie goggles are on a bit tight there? Second, a lot of people enjoy it, so saying it's objective is quite wrong.
If you didn;t know yet, I grew up with TLA. I loved it and still do. however, I can see why people (myself included) also like Korra. from a Human trying to be the Avatar to the Avatar trying to be Human. the whole story is diffirent, but nowhere near as bad as some make it out to be. And for the people comparing it; c'mon, let's be fair here. TLA is one of the best shows ever made, so ofcourse Korra won;t easily compare well.

Technically, there are objective factors to how good or bad a show is. And even though you can't entirely form an objective lens towards the more artistic aspects, you can at least compare things that you consider good or bad and look at the similarities and differences.
"people like it therefore it can't be bad" is a terrible argument, there are people who like everything. Enjoyment is purely subjective, and isn't useful in criticism.
Yes, even if it were better nostalgia goggles would still make people hate it irrationally, but that doesn't mean you can brush off all criticism as nostalgia goggles.
What's important in criticism is seeing what something set out to do and how well it succeeded. Legend of Korra set out to build on The Last Airbender's success and create a fulfilling sequel. Thus the only way to determine whether it was a good show is to compare it to TLA and see how it matches up. What made TLA good? What were it's flaws? And what does Korra change? Why does it change those things? These are the sorts of questions you should ask when judging a sequel.
Suggesting that a good TLA sequel is inachievable because TLA was too good is ridiculous, if TLA were so good it couldn't be followed with something of equal strength, it would be too good to have been made in the first place.
Perhaps people malign Korra too much, it's a decent show. But it isn't just a random show, it's a sequel, and it's not particularly good at being a sequel.

Someone wrote this, that someone most likely crossed the Mad King later

so, I've been thinking about a how I would build a RWBY character based on myself (kinda that is) and I think I found a good thing to try

maybe I'm playing games/watching movies wrong, but the most important thing for me is enjoying the movie. example: as bad as the TLA movie is, I can sit down and have fun watching it.

So that still hasn't came to pass (in the physical sense)? Hopefully there fusion will appear sometime.......
With how long it took till they introduced Sardonyx (even referencing it in-show), I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't until right before the series end.
Peridot and Lapis will be Pierre and Percy, like Peridot's ship
