We know the Beifong family is one of the most powerful families in the Earth Kingdom. But I love how it was more solidified in the Kyoshi novels, reading how much influence a Beifong had in Kyoshi’s era, though for not the best reasons.
I love details like these that expands the Avatar Universe and shows how much times have changed since then. The Beifongs went from looming prominent figures in Kyoshi’s time to becoming friends and companions fighting for 2 of her reincarnations. I think that’s just so cool and beautiful.

i find it so amazing how almost all the Avatar’s looks like the previous avatar’s spouse..
example, Kavik, Yangchen’s ‘lover’, looks very similar to Avatar Kuruk (the avatar after Yangchen)
Kuruk’s lover , Ummi , looks somewhat similar to Avatar Kyoshi (the avatar after Kuruk)
Avatar Kyoshi’s lover, Rangi, Looks a lot like Avatar Roku ( who is the avatar after Kyoshi)
Roku’s lover, Ta Min, looks very similar to Avatar Aang (the avatar after Roku)
and, last but not least, Avatar Korra has facial familiarities similar Katara, Aang’s lover
i love this so much!

Can I speak on another hot take (maybe) that I’ve been sitting on
I haven’t seen anyone else on tumblr bring this up yet but it was the first thing I noticed with the shots we get from Kyoshi Island…
Why is Sokka not in the dress??? Or the makeup????? He’s still in his regular clothes, and this is a pretty clear shot of them during his training. In the og series, Suki made him change before she started teaching him anything because it was important to her that if he was to learn the combat skills used by the Kyoshi warriors, he also had to respect their traditions and uniform. It wasn’t just a silly “haha they made the misogynistic guy wear a dress” moment, it was a sign of respect for the Kyoshi warriors, their sacred traditions, and Avatar Kyoshi herself. So why is he not doing that???
Aside from Suki rightfully kicking sokka’s ass in this episode and beating the misogyny out of him, a large message in this episode was the fact that Sokka was deconstructing his misguided enforcement of gender roles by going directly against them and wearing and dress and makeup, even if it was part of a warrior uniform.
At first I thought “ok, maybe they’re just doing things in a different order” but no. In the trailer we see a shot of Suki and Sokka fighting side by side like they did at the end of the original episode, and even then Sokka is still in his regular clothes. It just looks like he’s wearing the top layer of Kyoshi warrior armor over his regular clothes since they’re in a battle.
I really hate this because not only is it disrespecting their traditions, but it also makes Suki’s character seem like a push over for allowing him to stay in his regular clothes while simultaneously utilizing their armor. Her original character was a total badass, and had such a powerful spirit that Sokka willingly bowed down to, so she would have never let him get away with that.
Another reason to be skeptical of the live action </3

THIS IS NOT A DRILL! Check out the latest official illustration of Rangi and Kyoshi from Avatar Generations!!!
I can die happily now... We're FINALLY seeing these two come to life in official Avatar visual content. It's been almost 4 years since The Rise of Kyoshi released. Can you believe it??
