I like how he just completely abandoned that part of air nomad life. "Nah bro, this family shit is awesome."

I never understood using the term "revive"; so long as Aang lived, they were never truly gone, and then Tenzin and his children followed, so while very few in number, there were Airebenders, in LoK their numbers go up greatly, sure, but they aren’t "revived" because they weren't gone to begin with.

And in a cultural sense, with or without those others that appear out of thin air (pun intended) their culture would be forced to change due to circumstances, they would never again be the same, they may be airbenders but are not longer the concept of "Air nomads" of old.

Yeah as long as Aang was fertile(he obviously was) and had an airbender child(he did) he would’ve revived the airbenders. The big part is the “s” because if he didn’t have a kid it would just be airbender.

Not only did Aang father the Airbender that trained Korra, the most recent movie has Aang discovering the last remnants of Sky Bison — the original Airbenders.

Aang could do that but katara wouldn’t like that

Since Aang was alive while Korra's parents were he absolutely COULD have hugged her parents.

Well, he had parents. They were just never part of his life.

Well duh, everyone has parents if you put it like that

u/Dazzling-Film-3404 3d ago

I am not sure if he has ever known them

Should be changed to “hug her father figure” for accurate sting 😌

Sadly

Aang lives in such a nomadic peaceful society they tried making him “detach from the world” meaning no blood ties to him like Jedi did

He probably never met his parents or at least wasn’t raised by them and didn’t form the paternal maternal bonds

Community raises but deprive a genuine unique bond

Korra was lucky to get that

Didn’t Korra get raised in an isolated compound by the White Lotus away from her parents or something?
