ITT: Jun. Anything and everything.
Maybe it's because I only really got into Avatar during Book 2, but "Bato of the Water Tribe" is always the episode I forget exists when I rewatch the series. On the upside, it always seems new to me.
In before reverse weeaboo Jun image.And by "before", I mean "during"
June. June. JUNE.I don't know why this misspelling is so popular, especially since it's written right there in the credits. I'm not getting on your case, OP, but the fandom in general. And before you say I'm being too picky, think of all the grief you see given to someone who writes Kitara, Sakka, or Toff.

>>52635That's gonna take some getting used to.
>>52635Jun sounds vaguely Asian, and makes more sense for the setting. June doesn't. I guess Toph doesn't exactly sound like a Chinese name, but at least there's no ambiguity there.
>>52635 Prolly cause it fits better than june
>>52626Holy Shit, why have I not seen this paring done before. Fuck TyZula, I want more JunZula!
"June" is probably an unusual romanization of the name we'd more commonly write as "Jun", chosen because there's less chance of English-speakers mispronouncing it.
>>52638I'm curious. What exactly about the ending made you sad?
>>52693Considering all the other names that might be difficult for English-speakers to pronounce, that's doubtful. Avatar doesn't just use Asian names (think of Jet, or any other Freedom Fighters) and sometimes they make up names too (Katara). This is just a pet peeve of mine, but I don't want to turn it into a debate, so have some more delicious June fanart.
>>52677It's funny, I shipped Juzula before converting to Tyzula. I don't remember how that happened.
>>52625Purple, why?
>>52783I reject your Firenation June, and substitute my canon.
Let's not forget...
>>52976Wow, Iroh keeps himself nice and clean down there.
>>52984Precise Fire Bending saves you a fortune on razors and shaving cream.
>>53005And he's packaged so nicely!
I always pronounce it "Joo-neh", not sure why.>>52625 Shoop'd
>>53102Why thank you, Anon.
>>52635Because "Jun" is an actual Asian name.Also, Asian languages don't have silent letters. I know they wrote it as June in the credits, but if it was spelled June, it would have been pronounced Joo-nay/Joo-nee.Just like the name Tomoe is pronounced "Toh-moh-eh" and Akane is "Ah-kan-eh".The names in the Avatar universe tend to follow various Asian linguistic rules, even in the cases when they use made-up names...so it's weird that her name stands out. I mean, Jet seems kind of odd but it isn't technically breaking any rules...Anyway, I <3 Jun/Azula.
>>53102Fuck yeah!
Yeah, I'm sorry, I love the girl in the series, but I can't think of her now without thinking of the batshit insane bitches over at capslock_zutara.
I'll never be able to unsee June as a homunculus.
>>62514LustXJune may well be one of the greatest crossover ships ever.
>>62531lkjlasdwtwrjfdlj. Oh wow. Rowr.
>>62531UNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNF.
>>62497I know that, but no, they don't always pronounce Asian names properly. Like Kyoshi. It should only be two syllables. And they have non-Asian and even made up names, like Jet or Katara. So June is the correct spelling and pronunciation.>>62531I need more of this pairing!
>>62531some hotsecks and boredom ensues after.
>>62637Other way around. Like this.Mai: I'm bored.June: Then let's have hot lesbian sex.Mai: Sure, why not?*WORLD MELTS FROM THE HOTNESS*
I know it isn't as hot as les!Jun, but I like her with the Earth King. I also seem to recall an especially adorable fic; anyone have it?
>>62830Meh, if June's going to be in a straight pairing, I like her with Iroh after she gets a look at his sexy new abs: >>53102 pic related.
+/a/ needs moar June
bump
I feel like the whole name controversy came from people talking about her after ComiCon and assuming it was "Jun", and then not bothering to check again after the episode aired. I know people though her Shirshu was a "Shushu", and that Azula's name was "Zula" back then.
>>83788Fuck. Thought. No more 3am typing for me.
Interesting discovery of mine; Jun is the only person in the Avatar world who possesses a pair of high-heel boots. Look and be amazed.
>>84320High heel boots, Leather gloves, bullwhip.What do YOU think they were going for?
>>84328Probably the same think as Mainframe with Hexadecimal's S3/4 design with the corset and that.
