Though I will say, while I'm not a fan of the pairing, it is mighty nice of Tygra to remember he had a girlfriend after three or four eps with him hardly acknowledging that. (won't count the Kittens ep). Just saying, if they'd handle their pairing well, I could get behind it, but it's almost the worst romantic subplot I've seen. was tops till I saw saturday's Legend of Korra (really, that was it? REALLY?!)
As Just saying, that rivalry isn't going to end just because Tygra found out he's from a long line of jerks. Tygra's always wanted the Sword, it was made clear in the Astral Plane debackle the sword is what he wanted for YEARS, that won't just go away over night. And a throw down between the brothers with equally powerful swords would be a fine way to finally put this to a rest.
and also I might point out that overly romantic episodes between support characters usually lead to a break up or one of their deaths in most shows/animes... if they're going with that trope, I'd personally rather see a break up over Tygra or Cheetara pushing up daisies...
And for the record before I say this, while I still stand by my preference of Lion O/Cheetara I'm actually starting to like Pumyra with Lion O at least for now, always had a thing for spitfires personally, but there's just something not right with Tygra/Cheetara at least how they are here, it just, it's hard to really say, something doesn't feel 'kosher' there... but again, could be old anime paranoia.
Like SirSapphire said, Tygra was pretty clear why he wanted to go with Cheetara, and it wasn't the sword. He wanted to spend time with her. Which was creepy. Are they going out of their way to present their relationship like some creepy watching your parents make out thing? They're so unnatural. I was a T/C supporter (for plot reasons more than 'shipping') and am glad of it, but it's just so weirdly done.
They might do this duel thing, but I don't want to see it, because different sword or no, it's functionally the same thing they did in the Astral Plane where the two of them fought with copies of the Sword of Omens.
You're right about anime, though I'm hoping they don't go that way here. The triangle was bad, let it die. Pumyra and Lion-o has been oddly fast, but if it breaks the triangle I'm all for it. Although I pray they don't start making all the weird innuendo like Tygra and Cheetara. I agree that they're showing their relationship very strangely if they plan to make it permanent. It's just being written in that standard 'destined to fail' way.
P.S. what was wrong with legend of Korra? It was definitely fast, but I assume that's because this first season is basically the original 12 episode mini-series.
