Why do you ship makorra

So we get superficial reasons showed. If you asked me why either of them had feelings for each other? The rest we were told. We were told Mako liked Korra. But why? What about her did he actually like? What instances showed him experiencing these things he liked about her? Where was his slow emotional development for her? Why does Korra like Mako? What other than his looks and pro-bending skill are appealing to her?

Why does she overlook him treating her like shit? Mako seems to be that person. Not only because his personality mirrors hers, but because she also lets him.

But when he meets Korra, all that ice starts to melt gradually. She brings out a soft, gentle side. And more then that, Mako looks happy. When we first meet him, his main interest is winning the championship for he and Bolin. We never hear Mako complain about it. I think this is very important, actually. And there are times when she is wrong and needs told so. Korra stands her ground in episode 7 against Mako, even when he threatens their friendship.

After that incident, Korra still had feelings for Mako and was jealous of his relationship with Asami but backed off more, especially when it was discovered that Asami's father was an Equalist and Korra realized that she needed Mako. However, Ikki ended up telling Asami about Korra's crush on Mako.

To make things worse, Korra was captured by Tarrlok and Mako was determined to rescue her. Asami was worried that Mako had feelings for Korra and found out about their kiss through Bolin.

Eventually, when Korra was found and everybody surrounded her, Mako demanded that they give her space and carried her over to Oogi. When Korra was recovering in bed, Mako sat at her side and held her hand. These events led to Mako and Asami breaking up. Everybody was concerned so Mako decided to accompany her. Mako helped her fight and was determined to protect her but eventually watched in horror as Amon removed her bending.

Mako managed to zap Amon with his lightning and tried to escape with Korra, but Amon eventually caught up and prepared to remove Mako's bending. Upon seeing this, Korra unlocked her airbedning and defeated Amon. Mako comforted her after Amon got away. When they were back at the South Pole, it seemed like Korra would never be able to get her bending back.

Mako attempted to comfort her and admitted that he loved her, but Korra rejected him. However, Korra got her bending back and Mako witnessed her when she went into the Avatar State for the first time.

Afterwards, Korra admitted that she loved him too and they kissed, marking the start of their relationship. Six months later, Mako and Korra were still dating. However, they argued a lot about what was best for her. Still, Mako remained by her side and said that he would support her choices no matter what. However, when they got back to Republic City, Korra tried to get help from the United Forces behind the president's back while Mako ended up ratting her out.

They got into a screaming fight about this later, and after arguing about their own jobs, Mako broke up with Korra. After the break up, Korra was attacked by a dark spirit and lost all of memory. While she soon got most of her memory back, she still did not remember that she and Mako had broken up.

Upon reuniting, Korra kissed Mako and the latter found himself unable to remind Korra of the breakup. Mako later helped Korra in her fight against Unalaq and witnessed the destruction of Raava and the end of the avatar cycle.
