How do you have so much patience?

How do you accept you wont know the rest of the story for a couple years?

How do you know what you want is easily within reach snd still refuse to read it?

I don't understand how you guys do it all, i'm actually really impressed.

I continue to see anime only people beg for an another anime season that will probably never come, ever, and jf it does it wont be for multiple years. When you know you can just read the manga and just find out. Sometimes I will read the manga while watching the anime to make sure I don't miss anything.

You guys just watch the anime, know the next season wont be out for years or even at all, and just go on about your life, how?

I like to imagine there was a really big design argument about the if Aangs tattoos should glow during the avatar state and thank GOD the pro tattoo glow side won.

Because hear me out here, both sides would technically have a point, why does aangs tattoos light up?

The tattoos are supposed to symbolize chi flow … but it’s also just copying the flying bison … so really it’s just a tattoo layered on top of skin.

If chi is making anything light up it’s the “meridians” that make up the body, but that would take wayyyy to long to animate.

You kinda think, how did they kill EVERY air nomad, theres no way at least one didn’t escape but then in the comics, forgot which one, but the they showed that fire nation would distribute, ship, transport air nation relics to trick and lure air nomads to then catch them like cattle.

Thats some evil shit, who even thinks of that 😭

One of my favorite anime tropes is when the supposedly obvious main character is basically just the supporting character at the end of the anime.

Do you guys get what im asking for here

Anime only people stop reading now.

The Brimhats are the inevitable result of a society that makes its rules too rigid to survive contact with reality.

When you build a system with strict laws and no room for exception, you don’t stop people from finding creative solutions. You just guarantee that the only people bold enough to pursue them are the ones willing to break everything to do it. The Brimhats exist because the Pointed Caps left that space open.

The Wise Ones should make it their priority to get ahead of that. Coco is proof it’s possible. Her ideas have already been used to help people within the system.

And the memory wiping really seems to me like a short term solution with a long term expiration date. As society grows, literacy spreads, documentation will become common. How are you going to stop people from writing? Are you going to intervene and inhibit human innovation? You can wipe someone’s memory … what if they successfully hide their notes or worse someone evil finds it. The secret gets reconstructed. The current enforcement model only works in a world that stays small and controlled, add the world grows you would need a million knights and a billion watchers.

If the Pointed Caps don’t start loosening the needle themselves, someone else will do it for them. You don’t prevent more Brimhats by tightening the rules. You just end up creating more ruthless, better hidden version of the same problem. Hopefully they learn this sooner than later.

You are leaving a giant hole in magic to be filled, you can choose what kind of people fill that hole. Foster people like Coco or deal with endless variants of Custas.
