Asami Sato ( Japanese : 佐藤麻美 , Hepburn : Satō Asami ) is a major character in the Nickelodeon animated television series The Legend of Korra , which aired from 2012 to 2014. The character and the series, a sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender , were created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko . She is voiced by Seychelle Gabriel . The series' final scene, indicating the beginning of a romantic relationship between Asami and the female lead character, Korra , was unprecedented in its representation of LGBT persons in western children's television. [3] [4] [5]

Unlike many characters in the world of The Legend of Korra , Asami is not able to "bend", or telekinetically create, control and manipulate any of the four elements : water , earth , fire or air/wind . She is the only child of the wealthy industrialist Hiroshi Sato, who invented the "Satomobile" and whose company, Future Industries, is headquartered in Republic City. [6] Asami is a trained engineer, skilled pilot and driver, and competent unarmed combatant.

Asami has been well-received with publications. Many reviewers were content with her growth past being a love interest for Mako, and felt the relationship was not worth reviving. However, reception to her relationship with Korra was mostly positive.

Asami was initially conceived to be a duplicitous spy for the Equalist movement - antagonists in the first season - embedded within Team Avatar. However, the character became so well-liked by co-creators DiMartino and Konietzko that they rewrote her to be a friend to Korra, and ignorant of her father's Equalist activities. [1] [7] DiMartino remembered that he and Konietzko "knew" they needed "a character who wasn't a bender" after they decided on the nonbender revolution storyline. [8] Konietzko also floated the idea to the writing team that Asami might be bisexual "before the audience had ever laid eyes on" either her or Korra, but initially shelved the idea, assuming Nickelodeon would not allow it to be aired. This decision would be reversed after season two. [1]

An early script for the last episode of the first season, "Endgame", featured Asami joining the United Forces, a military in the universe of The Legend of Korra , at the end of the episode. The script was reworked sometime before the confirmation of the second season. [9] Bryan Konietzko's design of Asami was based on the idea of an actress from the " Golden Age " of Hollywood in the world of Avatar , and her hair was inspired by that of Rita Hayworth , [7] an American actress famous in the 1940s. Konietzko wrote that Asami's resemblance to the character Lust from the 2009 anime series Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood was coincidental, as he had not seen the series at the time of Asami's design in 2010. [10] Konietzko had previously had difficulty drawing women and chose to design Asami by himself, wanting a challenge. [8]

Asami's initial character design, from when she was meant to be an Equalist spy, was left unchanged after co-creators DiMartino and Konietzko rewrote her to be an ally instead. [11] Her design led viewers to speculate that the character would be a " femme fatale " when she first appeared. After it was revealed that she was not an Equalist spy, The A.V. Club noted that "it turns out that Asami's not bad—she's just drawn that way." [12]

Throughout the first three seasons of The Legend of Korra , Asami consistently is seen wearing a dark red and gray jacket, red turtleneck dress, pink leggings and black boots. In her introductory episode "The Voice in the Night", Asami is also seen wearing formal attire, two different dresses, one while on her initial date with Mako and the other while attending a gala with him. [13] Asami is also seen during the first season wearing a suit whenever involved in actual combat, which she retains throughout the series and wears the most during the third season when journey with Team Avatar. Her coat, which debuted in the season two (2013) episode " Rebel Spirit ", was based on one Konietzko saw on a Japanese fashion website. [14] She is only seen wearing the coat during the second season.

The character was given a slightly different design in the fourth and final season of the series, which was revealed via a trailer for the season in September 2014. Asami was shown to have a different hairstyle, different clothing and grown in height. Her design went through a series of revisions, which included appearances with a hat and different hairstyles. DiMartino wrote that he loved the final version of her fourth season appearance, finding it to be a "nice balance of formal business attire and fashion-forward elegance." [15] Entertainment Monthly wrote that while her appearance had changed, she still retained "the image of a businesswoman not to be messed with". [16] Noriel Espinueva
