Despite the delicacy of the relationship – which during the seasons is only suggested – SBT went ahead to "justify" the choice of design in a UOL report.
The network's advisors stated that they only purchased the first season of the cartoon. And the chapter that "generated controversy" and discreetly addresses the protagonist's affection is only part of the 4th and final season. Therefore, the design is within the minimum classification of 10 years.
In the United States, the cartoon caused controversy and was changed because it was considered "daring and adult". He left TV in the last two seasons, being shown only on the internet.

For those who don't know, the cartoon tells the story of Korra, a courageous teenager chosen as the Avatar and who has a spirit that controls three elements of nature. Without mastering the air element, Korra searches with her friends Mako Bolin and Asami in search of it.
During the story, Korra lives in a love triangle with Mako and Bolin, but it is in the third season that she begins her relationship with Asami. The relationship only becomes more evident in the last episode, when Korra and Asami look at each other and go to the spiritual world together.
the screenwriter Michael Dante DiMartino confirmed the romance: "The moment symbolizes their evolution from friends to a couple."
