The Legend of Korra

I get the feeling Nick didn't realize buying 14 episodes for a second season wasn't enough, but at the same time... FOUR seasons?!!?!?!

 

I mean, when a second season was decided, that was 2010 and I wouldn't doubt that in two years the dozen of other shows featured on Nick are not doing so hot. In comes Korra with a new episode garnering 3.5 million viewers on a single day, and said episode entering the Top 10 on iTunes.

 

I don't fault the original mini-series format, but given how Amon was going to be the only villain in Legend of Korra, we already got the ultimate villain as far as I can see. Just look at the antagonist progression in The Last Airbender. Whiny Zuko, then Admiral Zhao, Princess Azula, Azula's "Elite" Group, Combustion Man, having Dai Li Agents siding with Azula, and finally Fire Lord Ozai.

 

The Equalists were well-tuned and lead by an effective, intelligent, immensely powerful man who was rarely set back.

I'm not necessarily "doomsday" about this because I'm more so excited, but the thing I do fear most is that any subsequent antagonist will not live up to the magnitude of Amon.

 

Unless we get some massive Spirit World madness going on, because Amon was still a man after all. The glimpse we saw of spirits and the Spirit World, that's another level.

Unless they pull something out of their ass and have like the Anti-vatar that can bend anti-fire, anti-air, and anti-earth what are they supposed to do?

 

So... something like Dragonball GT's final arc happens.

 

The Avatar and having an Avatar has one draw back. Each successive Avatar counts down to the birth of an ancient being(s) who's job is to cleanse the world to start anew. Obviously Korra is the last one and must stop it from happening since people like living. The baddie is revealed to be actually four baddies combined. You have the usual four elements split into the four sub-baddies but when they combine you'll have the spirit bending final boss baddie.

 

The climax will be like the ending and reasoning of why Simon fights in Tengen Toppan Gurren Lagan. I won't say more to avoid spoilers for TTGL. Dragonball GT can suck it.

 

SO yeah, epicness incoming.

Just finished Avatar: The Last Airbender earlier tonight. Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome! I wasn't crazy about it at first, but part way through the first season it got really good (or maybe it just 'clicked' with me). Anyways, so I just finished the first Korra episode. I liked it, but I'm spending the entire time thinking "how did Aang die? What about his friends? Why are there more sky bisons?". Also, Republic City looks A LOT like Vancouver.

Aang's death.

 

 

Aang died of natural causes. He died younger than most avatars because all that time he spent frozen in ice while in the avatar state shortened his lifespan.
