Yes. Lmao.
Honestly I think you're just biased. Makorra were a predictable trope and took up too much screen time with their angsty antics back when they were a thing. They broke up three years ago in-universe and I really can't see how you can objectively say that they had more romantic development than Korrasami did, especially since the start of book 3 kind of made it clear that Korra was over him. Also, if you're going to write off any Korrasami interaction as moments of friendship then you don't really have any grounds to say that Makorra were being built up. You can be upset about your ship not being endgame if you want but don't try and write off Korrasami as being bad writing because of that.
I do agree that the last shot should have been of team avatar though. Would have been nice to get a final scene with them all together, although tbf they were never really presented as as much of a group as the gaang were (I don't think Bolin even spoke to Korra in the last episode lol).
Predictable, maybe, but better written than Korrasami. Kataang was also very predictable and I think it made sense and their relationship developed well throughout the 3 Books. That doesn't mean I would've liked it (development-wise) if Aang started kissing Sokka at the finale, because it would've been sudden and it would not have made much sense, since they both didn't express any romantic towards each other. And if you want my opinion, while I do think Korrasami got more, Sokka/Aang was close enough to Korrasami, development-wise.
I'm okay with Korrasami. I'm just mad because of how it turned out. It would've been
amazing if Korra and Asami actually showed some interest for each other before the last two minutes. It was rushed.
And yes, I believe Makorra got more development than Korrasami. Honestly, what did these two really do to make a significant progress in their LOVE relationship before the big finale ? She complimented her hair, she brang her tea thinking she was cold... Yes, they did hang out with each other, but that clearly isn't the real way to make a love relationship bloom. Even taking a look back at Book 3 won't help you much; their interactions, while cute, were basic friends interactions, with the exception of a few (such as the one at the finale when Korra is in a wheel chair, that concerned look she gives Korra when she's "dying"...).
Now taking a look at Makorra, on the other hand; we clearly know that Mako still loves Korra. He supported her during the whole spirit vine attack case, he spent about half of an episode talking about how she changed his life for the better, that he looks up to her, that she is amazing. We see his worry while they look for Korra shortly after the spirit portal's creation. Why wasn't it Asami ? Clearly it would've been an easy way to see that Asami deeply cares about Korra. But they decided to give all these little pieces of episode to Mako, whose love for Korra is still burning, and it was shown. That passionate hug in Book 3 ? Asami didn't get that. She totally could've. Mako showed so much worry for Korra in Book 3, too, starting from where he knew the Red Lotus was after her. That, too, should be considered. Finally there was his last speech to Korra before the episode ended. This conversation, while small and supposedly "irrelevant" because Korra would hook up with Asami 2 minutes later, was touching and deep. "I'll follow you into battle, no matter how crazy things get. I've got your back, and I always will": he's just SAYING to her that even if she's not with him, he'll always love her (well well, that surely does sound familiar) and that he'll assist her whenever she needs it. Just think about how precious these two lines were. The look she gives him back just shows you that.
Why would they
even bother to bring up Mako and Korra's relationship that much in Book 4 if they knew it wasn't going to be endgame ? Mako was almost a non-existant character in Book 4. Why would they give him these feelings towards Korra to make him appear as an important character if "they grew apart and got over their love for each other" ?
I don't think I am biased. It's just bad writing. I might be sad because my favorite ship wasn't endgame, but know that I am a Korrasami shipper too, and I saw a lot of potential for those two. It just didn't cut out to be a romantic relationship. I was disapointed. If there was no way in hell I was predicting a Korrasami ending at the very end, then maybe there was a something wrong somewhere. And then Bryan goes and tell us we've been "watching the show with hetero lens" this entire time. He can't blame us to see Korra with Mako more than Asami if her interactions with Mako are much deeper than with Asami. I was offended. He almost treated us like homophobes, simply to avoid the fact that the Korrasami writing wasn't good enough.
The queer reprensentation is great. I honestly am very happy that they thought about doing this. Yet the reprensentation is weak; I wanted more coming from them. That's why I'm mad, and nothing else. That's why I wanted Korra to be single or with Mako in the end, with that kind of writing, because now I'm stuck with this bitter feeling about the finale for my entire life.
