zanhar1 No offense this almost makes me want to [i]not[/i] ship Swan Queen. I always hated Zutara and the fact that there are so many similarity makes me cringe. But then again, to be honest I mainly hate Zutara due to the fact that I hate Zuko and I really hate Katara. And once again, nothing personal. This was a great article, I just hate Zutara quite passionately. I try to keep that to myself though.

minervadawn I like the idea of Zutara but I dont ship them. Despite everything i just dont feel anything between them. They are to much alike. they have the same strengths and weaknesses as a character (ditto with Swan Queen). I generally ship characters that balance each other out. Where one is serious the other is lighthearted, where one is outgoing the other is soft-spoken. It's a personal preference but thats how I judge my ships. No offense taken, I love Katara and Zuko but we often disagree on these sort of things.

zanhar1 I never felt much between them either. I usually ship everything (there are just a few things like Zutara and Makorra that I don't ship) I'm a pretty laid back shipper. Cool.

halle1283 I ship both <3

Alchemistlover I hate zutara and never thought about swan queen
