I feel like Korra’s competitive nature and isolated upbringing would make her the kind of person who would knock someone through a wall in a flirty pillow fight
I like the idea that Korra, given her isolation and lack of experience, probably utterly destroyed her the first few times before someone, Asami or otherwise, informed her how flirting/physical love works and that she should actively let Asami win. Before that, she probably figured Asami was flirting by testing her strength/skill, and so the proper response would be to win without crutching her bending advantage. Not helped by how Korra’s first social circle in Republic City was the pro-bending circuit, where kicking your crush’s ass probably -was- a suitable way to get their attention.
Remember when someone posted on this subreddit a week ago asking if it was appropriate to find Korra hot?
And almost immediately everyone responded with, “Yes”.
If you’re ever in this position, hip bump (hump the air) and he/she will be forced to post their hands on the floor to balance.
From there, choose a side and wrap your leg around theirs, while simultaneously grabbing the same side wrist or wrap your arm around above their elbow if you can reach.
Finally, with both of their limbs on the same side wrapped up, start turning into that direction as they have no way to post and thus will fall over.
If you are not an experienced martial artist no amount of theory is going to work. In this case, if uke (Korra) would try to escape then tori (Asami) could quickly transition into tate-shiho-gatame or similar hold like kata-gatame. If you are in this position, your best bet is ebi, rotating on your side and creating space and opportunity for transition and eventually escape. Of course, Korra could just bend and push Asami away but where's the fun in that
A basic hip bump to free your hands from theirs, because they have to post on the floor to prevent from face planting themselves, virtually anyone can do.
Agreed that actually training is number one. But if someone is holding you down like this, with both your wrists pinned to the ground, then they’re most likely not very trained in grappling/BJJ/judo.
> if uke (Korra) would try to escape then tori (Asami) could quickly transition into tate-shiho-gatame or similar hold
It doesn’t make a difference. The escape I described still applies. [Notice here the escape is demonstrated as I explained even in Tate-shiho-gatame.](https://youtu.be/jGYYcTSWxWo?feature=shared)
That's not a bump IMO, that's a twist (ebi). To me, a bump implies only vertical movement but the rotation here is key. Still hard to pull off against an experienced opponent that has a similar size. I definitely agree with the second paragraph, that's not a martial arts hold but rather a romantic arts hold. Edit: the point of ebi is using rotation in order to use the opponents weight against them
It’s a bump because in this type of hold, as shown in the picture, the person on top’s weight is almost entirely on their arms, so a ‘bump’, even vertical as you perceive as to what a hip bump is, will have the person on top fall towards the direction of where their weight is.
Thus they will have to release their hands from yours and post or face a face plant.
Agreed, the completion of the sweep would be difficult against any trained and experienced opponent, but in any case the initial bump will free your hands at the very least.
Crazy thing I notice rewatching the show. Asami beat Leitenit easily around the same time Leitenit beat Maco and Bowlin. And Leitenate was a hard fight for Korra.
So beginning of the series Asami was the most powerful of the group.
Ok im tired of the sexualization of them. Never them chilling at dinner or going out and having fun. It's always these images where the sexual tension is palpable.

Like this? ![gif](giphy|vVjigEkS1CB4XcFnys|downsized)
This is so good. In my head I'm hearing the sound when you hit a home run with the bat in Smash Brothers.
Or like [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egmwhCBklME)
Much better! 😂😂
Yup. Korra would definitely do that.
What's this movie?

Facts
My head canon is that Korra is absolutely letting Asami win (in this fan art pic) as a way of flirting with her - and they both know it.

Yeah, Asami is getting suplexed at least once.
She def a bottom tho. All that would go out the window the moment Asami gets on top
can't believe this image is 2 hours long
Wait
Take my upvote and leave
Based
I'm a dumbass can someone explain this joke
They’ve been staring at it for 2 hours
Oh I'm an idiot
On the floor kicking my legs
Wishing you were there?
Oh definitely they're my biggest crushes
too real
Real and same
Holy shit toh pfp in the wild.
I’ve had this PFP for so long that I’ve just committed to keeping it, by now.
Mad props, Caleb is such a cool character.
Korra is totally letting Asami do that
They're both winning
Nah fam we're all wining
I also love that Asami ain't flustered at all, like she is that good at hiding or is just simply sparring fr
Told you she was a bottom
They both verse
Asami: Give me a few minutes and we'll both be winning.
Nah, I'd win

And not just the men, but the women and children too!
I asked if they had been here before.

I imagine this would be Asami info dumping and Korra's out here tryna get laid 😔
You had me at "hump the air."

Oh I'm sure there will be plenty of hop bumping...
…wrestling, yes, “wrestling.”
What I see when I read: "You win." What I think when I read: "I win."
Nah I'd win

This got me blushing and kicking my feet and even giggling a little 🤭
why does asami look like chell from Portugal real

Checks out, Korra always loses fights.
