Avatar: The Last Airbender had more pressing things on its mind than romance — as you may recall, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked, and Avatar Aang had a lot to learn before he could save anyone (let alone the world). But love, like life, finds a way. This is a show about teenagers, after all, and the characters found connections that for some would last a lifetime.
The thing is, fans do not agree on whether or not those are the right pairings. The battle between shippers has calmed, somewhat, in the years since the show went off the air. But these are still deeply held beliefs about how AtLA should’ve paired people off — after all, each pairing brings out a different shade in the characters. With that in mind (and the live-action show due later this month), we’ve cataloged the Major Ships — canon or not — of the Last Airbender universe, and are here to weigh in: When all the dust of the Ozai battle has settled, who should’ve ended up with whom?
[Ed. note: This post contains some spoilers for the end of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Additionally, we weren’t foolhardy enough to think we could possibly cover every single possible ship in the AtLA universe, so if we missed your favorite, we’d love to hear why you love them in the comments.]
Ana: I don’t have much to say other than these two just fit each other. Suki helps Sokka grow as a person and challenges his ideas of who can be strong and what strength looks like. Also, I’d like to think that Suki shows him how you don’t need to be a bender to be a true team player.
Petrana: Out of every canonical endgame ship, this one makes the most sense! They clearly inspire one another, and they’re similar enough to have some common ground, but different enough to challenge one another. Plus, I am always here for a relationship where the girl could beat up the guy.
Zosha: Sokka is instantly a better character once Suki knocks him on his ass (literally and metaphorically). There are few better examples in this universe of people bringing out and encouraging the best parts of the other, and a badass fighter supporting her smartass inventor boyfriend is an indelible dynamic.
Ana: Mai’s decision to save the “jerk” who dumped her is an all-time-great moment in the series. It stands out as an example where we can see Zuko’s change affect those around him and, to me, represents a real turning point in the series since it shows two members of Fire Nation high society turn against the empire. I love that Mai is able to see the importance of Zuko’s decision — even if it meant him dumping her.
Petrana: I normally like relationships where couples have something similar that grounds them, but I feel like this one came out of nowhere. I just do not

Pseudoregalia, a 3D Metroidvania released last summer for just $6, ended up being one of the best and biggest surprise hits of the year. As lead developer Rittz told me in an interview in September 2023, he made most of the game himself in about four months after getting into game dev as a self-taught newcomer. As of today, which has yielded a chunky map update for the game, Pseudoregalia has passed 100,000 copies sold, and Rittz is "still having trouble processing."

Hailed for taking the Turtles back to their grittier roots, The Last Ronin also set the stage for a new generation of turtles, whose adventures will take place in the time after the end of The Last Ronin.
Between movies like Dune: Part Two, Longlegs, Furiosa, Horizon, and Twisters, it’s already shaping up to be a pretty big year for movies.

In the rollout for Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender, fans got a bit up in arms. This isn’t unheard of for the ATLA fandom, having already seen one live-action adaptation do them dirty and with a bit of natural defensiveness built in from many having watched and loved a show for almost 20 years. So when Kiawentiio, the actor playing Katara in the new live-action TV show, claimed the show had taken “out the element of how sexist [Sokka] was,” fans were miffed.
