Kataang OH NOSE

Description

Okay, one more today since you've all been good little Avatar fans. I throw you this bone to chew on while you wait for the finale.

Look closely at the notes for 208, panel A. It clearly states, "Katara watches Aang O.S. (off screen) smiling and blushing."

That's right. SMILING AND BLUSHING. Aang kissed her and she LIKED IT.

And yet, if you look at the actual drawing, her cheeks look flush, but she's anything but smiling.

How could this be? An innacuracy in the storyboard? Why does it say one thing, but depict another?

It is as though the board artist (me) subconsciously chose sides in the Kataang/Zutara war, clearly depicting Katara's happiness that Aang kissed her. BUT THEN was instructed by a ..."higher authority" to change that specific reaction.

Note that Katara's face in 208 panels A and B are not my actual drawings, but are in fact the work of a.... revisionist.

What does it all mean? We must look to the actual episode to see that her final, official, actual reaction is in fact...

..vague.

oh my god, you can see she actually WAS smiling, but it was erased and replaced with a more.... neutral face.
