korra just was constantly like AW THIS HAPPENED TO ME AWWW THIS HAPPENED TO ME UGHHH I RUIN PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING CUZ I ACT ON IMPULSE. Aang was extremely mature for his age, thought of EVERYONE including people who hated him and wanted to kill him like zuko, ozai, the entirety of the fire nation. He could have gone insane and literally kill them all because of what they done to him like killing all of the air nomads, killing him (azula), the destruction they brought to the earth kingdom. But he didn’t. He genuinely had more layers like trying to open all the chakras, I get so emotional when he thinks about all the air nomads and that he shouldn’t feel guilty and they still love him, finding peace with all the guilt and anger he’s had and accidentally hurt others like the earth kingdom soldiers in the first episode of the second season or when he burned katara. The most insane depth I think he has was sparing ozai. Korra would not do that. Aang found a way at 13 years old to take away someone’s bending so that they wouldn’t have to die. That’s what I call depth.

Aang wasn't locked in a compound for his whole life, he was an air nomad, Korra was a TEENAGER, Aang was a MONK

Bro was in an iceberg for 100 years while all his people died. The amount of guilt he carried after that. At least korra had family and friends around her and she had time to learn all the elements. I’m sick of the korra glaze.
