Wunschtraum Und Wirklichkeit

I don't know if it's an unpopular take but I cannot stand Toph's characterization in the ATLA comics. They stripped Toph of all her personality traits expect for sassy earthbender. She's downright rude in some instances. I won't even begin to talk about her erasure - one of the fandom's preferred characters and yet she is barely more than a side character (even in her designated comic she has to share it with Aang)

Where is the Toph that cried because she missed her mother and felt remorse for abandoning her during the war? Where is the Toph that comforted Zuko during the Ember Island Play intermission? Where is the Toph that canonically loves and protects her friends, thinks of them as a family and wants to carry out their friendship into another life?

Yes, Toph is confident, arrogant at times and sassy. But she never was rude to her loved ones; never disregarded differenf cultures nor did she ever lack spirituality. It's also hysterical that during The Rift - after Toph passes out from saving multiple people from being crushed by metal - not one of her friends remembers or seems to care about her. NOT ONE!

Most characters were done dirty in these comics. Katara and Zuko might be the biggest victims of being substantially OOC but I rarely see people talk about how they completely disregarded Toph's character arc or her personality.

One day I'll write a whole dissertation of Toph's portrayal in the comics (and how her relationship with Aang was handled)

You can have a badass female character without stripping her from her humility and vulnerability.

I can't help but love you

Even though I try not to

I can't help but want you

I know that I'd die without you
