The thorn from the back of Karaba the Sorceress

from the movie Kirikou and the Sorceress (1998)

directed by Michel Ocelot

The movie is getting fanart! Karaba my love!

I love how so many people don’t know that this woman above is a true icon in France - in a double way.

On one side, Karaba is actually the symbol of a particular generation’s childhood in France. She appears everywhere, and everybody who grew up between the late 90s and the end of the 2000s will have seen her - and even beyond that, since she isn’t from just one movie, but several, coupled with several books, and a musical stage-show that was as popular as the Lion King’s one…

On the other side, Karaba is still considered to be a black feminist icon to this day, and people of today are in fact even slightly shocked to look back in the past and see that, just two decades prior, you had a positive, powerful, beautiful Black character whose entire purpose was to break down misogynistic fear and denounce the violence against intelligent and talented women…

There is so much to unpack with Karaba and how impactful she was… But most of the time when I try to talk about it to non-European people all they say is “Hey! Titties”. *sighs*

swifties always going on the "you just hate women" defense like first of all Taylor Swift is not a woman she's an unskippable ad

Jet from atla is so funny bc like, he's fighting zuko and taunting him being like "bet you wanna use some fire instead of those swords, dont u fireboy" which is a funny thing to say to a guy who is clearly very eager to fight using swords

someone pointed out (1) time how big of an a-hole move it would have seemed like for jet to accuse the kid with the giant visible burn scar on his face of fire bending.

not only was zuko very clearly eager to fight using swords, i'm betting several members of that crowd were also eager to see zuko kick jet's ass with said swords

Epic tag discourse going on here

# There is no good conclusion to come to about Zuko’s scar.

This is the truth. Zuko’s scar is too carefully placed and too old to be anything other than the act of a firebender deliberately burning a child. A child who would have been held or restrained in some way for the damage to be so contained.

That’s the sort of thing that once the tea shop patrons realized that, it didn’t matter where “Li” was from, only that he never be forced to go back.

# There is no

good conclusion to come to

about Zuko’s scar.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

enough paintings of saints where they're looking heavenward in ecstatic agony or down with love and mercy on their onlookers as they ascend. we need more paintings where the martyr is looking accusatorily directly at the viewer.

[touches earpiece] oops sorry guys i forgot that the catholic church is more interested in the performance of guilt than the reality of it. my bad for real.
