Avatar: The Last Airbender cosplayer shines bright as Fire Nation Katara Nickelodeon \/ Instagram: sanet.cosplayAn Avatar The Last Airbender cosplayer has lit up the internet with her jaw-dropping Katara cosplay, unveiling her stunning take of the \u201cinspirational\u201d anime heroine\u2019s iconic Fire Nation disguise on Instagram earlier this week. Katara has been a \u201cspecial\u201d heroine for many since she first debuted in the opening episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender all the way back in 2005. The passionate water bender became Avatar Aang\u2019s best friend, and helped him achieve his destiny against Firelord Ozai. The heart of Team Avatar also became an icon outside of The Last Airbender too; for many, including cosplayer Sanet, Katara \u201cheld a very special place in the hearts of many black and brown girls\u201d who watched the 2005 cartoon series. So, when Sanet had the chance to cosplay Katara\u2019s Fire Nation disguise, which she wears early in Season 3, the Instagram model jumped at the chance. Avatar superfan shines with Katara cosplay Sanet\u2019s cosplay was certainly jaw-dropping, especially with how simple a Katara Fire Nation cosplay can be. The Avatar cosplayer paired a one-sided bright red top with a darker fabric to make the stand-out Katara outfit. The main part of the cosplay, however, was the wig Sanet donned to create the costume. The water bending heroine wears her hair in a wound-up bun as part of her Fire Nation disguise, and the Avatar cosplayer pulled it off with style. Finally, she added Katara\u2019s jewelry for a finishing touch \u2014 she pulled on two gold bracers and Katara\u2019s upper arm cuffs. The piece that brought it all together was the red and gold choker, marked with the three bronzed gems. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CEUtEUwD3o3 Katara \u201cinspires\u201d as Avatar heroine Funnily enough, Katara isn\u2019t actually Sanet\u2019s favorite character \u2014 Toph holds that place in her heart \u2014 but she does love what Katara meant for young girls as \u201cthe only dark skin girl in a popular animated series\u201d all the way back in 2005. \u201cKatara is such an amazing character\u2026 the Avatar fandom needs to cut her some slack!\u201d she told Dexerto after posting her cosplay. \u201cLet\u2019s be honest, none of us could have done what she did at 14 years old.\u201d \u201cShe is such a passionate and strong female character who shaped her own destiny, and I love her for that. I started watching Avatar when I was 10, and Katara was one of the only dark-skinned characters. 10-year-old me saw myself in her.\u201d https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CEZ3xa-JLxU Luckily, the Katara cosplay wasn\u2019t too hard to put together either. Once Sanet got her hands on the headpiece, she just sewed together the two pieces of the costume, and added a few pieces of jewelry to bring it all together. \u201cI cut a red fabric in a right triangle. Then I ended up tying two pieces behind my back and the other on my bra strap to hold it all together,\u201d she admitted. \u201cMy favorite part of the entire cosplay was the neckpiece \u2014 I think it really gave it that Fire Nation feel.\u201d Good news too if you loved Sanet\u2019s take on the Avatar heroine; she\u2019s already teased another cosplay in the near future. \u201cI may or may not have a Korra cosplay planned in the future,\u201d she said.
