I only have two MLP shirts

I have the I heart (Picture of Derpy) shirt.

And one that I had custom airbrushed when I went to Ocean City a few months ago.

I also have a Derpy satchel bag that I carry my textbooks in.

Most of my MLP merch is toys tho

I know everyone is pissed about the lack of fighting/too much shipping, but I personally loved the badassery that Iroh, Bolin, and Asami were doing.

The hilarious thing about that chart is that we've had the best pony argument a zillion times, but the attack/defense things are almost entirely different.

@Blue Exaclty.

(Amon points. Someone keels over in pain.) That gets old REALLY fast.

@Crow I liked his backstory as it's own story. I was just annoyed that he was a bender at all. I was aching so bad for a competent Badass Normal villain who could fight on par with benders and they ruined it

and yeah, the shipping made me want to punch someone XD

Wait, Iroh? As in "Dragon of the West" Iroh? Dude was already old in the original series! Are you telling me he's still kicking ass decades later?

[up][up][up][up]The lack of a final fight didn't really disappoint as much as the revelation of who Amon was as well as how the lose of bending was ultimately handled in the end.

Avatar really needed a giant mech battle. I didn't know it needed one until it happened, but I am so glad it did.

@Kyler. Iroh is Zuko's grandson.

@Gex. They have a bunch of shirts that reference stuff. Maybe find something related to some things you like.

@Kyler Sadly, no. Zuko's grandson is named Iroh, and is voiced by Dante Basco. I like referring to him as I Iroh, as in Iroh II.

Iroh's voice was just distracting. It doesn't fit him... at all.

At least Amon was still badass. Powers or no.

Oh. That's kind of disappointing. Kind of expected, but also kind of disappointing.

@ginger Yeah, it bothered me a bit. I kept expecting him to say something like this.

Oh and yeah. Everyone gets their bending back. Yay, we don't have to be weak like those lowly, inferior non-benders again. -_-

It stunk oof unfortunate implications for me, and it left a bitter taste in my mouth [lol]

Really, I think the shipping was terribly handled in this series. There wasn't really any buildup to any of it, just "these characters love each other now and will give each other longing glances for the rest of the series." It completely wasted Asami, who had a potentially interesting plot with her father and how she deals with the fact that he's evil, but instead she spent all her time giving jealous eyes at Korra and Mako.

I figured you'd be bothered by that. Amon's defeat was a bit anticlimactic

Wow, the thread managed a whole day and a half this time before the unmarked spoilers came out.

@ginger Well, just because Amon was a sham doesn't mean the non-benders still won't want equality. There's a very good chance the Equalists will still be around next season, just smaller. Maybe the Lieutenant Mustache Guy will be their leader.

Trying to read Rarity's chart entry (black text on a purple background) didn't strain my eyes at all.

@ginger: Characters like Lin spent their whole lives developing those abilities because that's what they're good at. She'd be hard pressed to get another job, or at least on that pays nearly as well, without her bending.

Sorry about the spoilers.
