Avatar: The Last Airbender Cosplay Tests Katara’s Waterbending

In the last year, a renewed focus has been put on Avatar: The Last Airbender, and it is all thanks to the show’s return to Netflix. The series was revisited by old fans while newcomers discovered its charms for the first time. Of course, fans were quick to bolster Avatar‘s fandom with recruits, and a good few of them have floated through with cosplays of their favorite characters. And thanks to one fan online, netizens have a stunning example of how Katara could be brought to life in live action.

Over on Instagram, the user victoriaecs got fans all riled up when they shared their take on Katara. The netizen, who goes by Victoria Camargo, decided it was time to give their best shot at water bending. And as you can see below, they nailed the look.

The shot captures Katara during a simple water bending exercise as she stands before a lake. With water lapping in the distance, fans can see Camargo lifting her arms apart as a stance, and some photo editing makes it appear as if she is water bending a la Katara.

Of course, the edit is plenty impressive, and her cosplay makes it even more believable. After all, Katara looks as if she were pulled from the television in this shot. Camargo has her hair pulled back just like Katara, and it frames her face perfectly. Katara is in her usual Water Tribe gear that makes her blue eyes pop. Paired with a brown satchel, Katara looks ready to go on a grand adventure, and fans can see the girl is still wearing her mother’s necklace in this gorgeous shot.

When it comes to Katara cosplays, this look is one of the best out there, and we hope Netflix is paying attention. The streaming giant is working on a live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Camargo’s cosplay is the perfect inspiration.
