If we are talking about hating a character, lets switch it around ;D I can not stand Toph...but Katara is so sweet and caring. Her bending is also AWESOME!

The reason I don't like Katara that much is that she seems very mary-sueish to me. Toph is just WAY more interesting. It's like Katara is just vanilla ice cream, and Toph is cookie dough ice cream with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry on top! I think Toph should get more lines. All Katara does is talk talk talk, and Toph doesn't really get to say anything. It just seems that Katara is always the hero, and Toph is just the voice in the background. Besides Aangs earthbending leasons, he rarely EVER talks to her.
I don't hate Katara, but Toph is way cooler.

When it comes to bending, Katara is really good, probably my favorite bender when it comes to bending. Like I said, it's just my personal taste on who I like, Toph just has an attitude that interests me more.

Really? It's news to me that people don't like Katara. I personally love Katara's character. But I can see where she could take a backseat to Toph at the moment, just because she's not the new girl and Toph has a little more spunk. But I don't ever recall hearing anyone bash Katara.....

I probley think there was a reason for a character of Toph...I pretty sure there would be an earthbender on the "A gang" but not without the style,feeling and emotion of Toph

Isn't it enough that Toph likes Katara and Katara likes Toph? So fans - can't we all just get along?

Are you talking about the shipping or the friendship?

Katara is actually a pretty cool character. She has her awesome moments like any other character.

Katara fits pretty well into the role of the arch-typal female lead, which often are discribed as 'canon-sues'. Katara is not however since she's not an idiot and is quite capable of many things. And remember, Katara worked hard as Pakku said, to improve her bending skills, even if we didn't see it. I think it was too soon for him to call her a 'master' since she still doesn't have the experience of one yet. I personally don't like Katara much because she fits into that role's arch-type so well, but I don't hate her. Side/minor characters tend to interest me more. (Probably why I like Song, who is similar to Katara in certain ways that would normally be annoying to me.)
