I miss Korra

There's probably going to be comic news next weekend.

You do? Oh, man. Bad news, OP. You might be clinically retarded.

I do too, but I really don't want to see any post-book 4 stuff pretending that Korrasami is the most loving and greatest relationship that ever existed.

I actually thought the pacing in season 1 was meh. Knowing they meant for it to be sort of like a mini-series it made a lot more sense, but for a full-fledged show it didn't work, and that was obvious once the show hit season 2.

I'll never forgive them for the lore asspull, even if the first avatar episodes were pretty good.

>go to the /u/ thread because I like the fanart
>people over there are still sniffing Asami's farts and are convinced she's the only one who truly understands Korra and are convinced it was Mako's fault that Asami didn't get any focus in books 3 and 4, and that Asami has the most depth out of the entire Krew

I thought that kind of Asami fan died off after book 2.

I need to fuck a good Korra or Toph cosplayer. I need it.

>Asami has the most depth out of the entire Krew
Fucking Pabu has more depth than the walking pile of make-up

There's no discussion over there, only image dumps.

There has been in the past, now it's mostly people getting more and more depressed over lack of comic news.

>it was Mako's fault that Asami didn't get any focus in books 3 and 4

I understand blaming Mako for being far more relevant in the "Varrick taking over Future Industries" subplot than she was.

But Asami did nothing at all in Books 3 and 4 except suck up to Korra and drive the getaway vehicles while every other character was off doing something in the plot.

This

Honestly that's not Mako's fault, it's the writers. It's not like he locked Asami in a box so he could be the hero.

Korra was a mistake

Sauce???

>Expecting any meaningful discussion on /u/
That was your first mistake.

I still love the show
season 2 was bad to mediocre but gen 1 and 4 were cool and gen 3 was god tier

>everyone absolutely loved Korra for the first couple of weeks
I certainly didn't. It was straight disappointments pretty much from the get-go.

I was willing to give it the first few episodes the benefit of the doubt that all the questions I kept asking that the narrative wasn't answering would eventually come up and be given an answer.

It never happened.

I literally said in the first part of my comment I went for the fanart.

Long hair Kora>short hair Korra

This, I hope she grows her hair back out in the comics.

This:the thread

Depends on how long a period of time they want to cover. Or if this is her new hair to denote being bisexual.

Problems are that Zuko cut his hair to blend in but keep on fighting for honor. Korra cut her hair to hide from herself and at another low point in her life. Zuko grew his back out so if they keep Korra with that same hair it is like she is stuck in that time in her life.

>Long hair Kora>short hair Korra

A good opinion, but I respectfully disagree. I think short hair Korra is cuter.

Zuko did end up going for an anime prince look over the bald ponytail after growing back his hair.

Korra might keep hers after Meelo and Asami both told her that they liked her new style.

tfw Korra will never bend the cum right out of your dick.

If I had to be honest I'd agree with you.

I miss it before lesbians.

Yeah, that's when a few of my friends wrote off the show as a wash

I miss Korra and I miss some of her friends, rivals and acquaintances, but I don't miss her show.

Is that weird?

The setting and characters were great
The writing was not
I would not mind seeing a korra reboot

I think short hair sweaty Korra is a miracle of the universe, but still like her long hair more.

Remember when we loved bryke and we were enjoying them trolling the shippers?

Yep.
They were corrupted by tumblr and lost.

This is exactly how i feel.

Not surprising considering how little Korrasami matters to the show itself.

>we

i still do go fuck yourself you hate them because of something YOU dont like

Obviously, but i doubt they're going to have her grow it out again.

At least back then they used to acknowledge popular crack pairings only in the glorified clip show, conventions, misleading trailers and the non-canon chibi shorts intead of making them canon.

youtube.com/watch?v=LiRYB8YLaGk

I remember trusting them to do their best but then they got what they wanted, felt proud of it and it was complete shit.

>Problems are that Zuko cut his hair to blend in but keep on fighting for honor. Korra cut her hair to hide from herself and at another low point in her life. Zuko grew his back out so if they keep Korra with that same hair it is like she is stuck in that time in her life.
Oh God I'm glad someone else realized Korra cutting her hair wasn't some epic Mulan moment, it's literally a haircut representing the worst part of her life. She should grow it back out.

>opinions that are objectively wrong

Hey Cred Forums,

Wanna party, for old time's sake?

Just started this. What can I expect?

Endless disappointment.

Golden potential in character design, art, music and general premise, ultimately never adequately brought out because the writers flubbed the execution pretty hard.

Still decent.

Greatest potential wasted of all time

Should I just drop it then? Just finished the first episode and it was pretty cool.

Don't expect ATLA. Korra's more like an Avatar-themed miniseries that got another 3 seasons.

It's still worth watching. The majority of the disappointment comes from failing to live up to it's rather enormous potential and distinguished pedigree.

I essentially equated it with someone having a mid-life crisis. It essentially represented Korra not wanting to be Korra anymore and cutting ties with her past. It happens when you hit that brick wall of depression, people do drastic changes. My sister-in-law hit a huge moment of depression and went from your blonde, preppy girl to goth girl over night (She also let herself go in the following months and gained a bunch of weight.)

/u/ is the worst from tumblr mixed with the worst from Cred Forums. Basically what you get if an autistic waifufag and a sjw have a baby together

I guess it depends on what you liked in that episode.

>Should I just drop it then? Just finished the first episode and it was pretty cool.

It's fun to play a game with others about how many mistakes in storytelling and writing you can find. Just don't make it a drinking game with potent alcohol.

And her deciding to keep that haircut forever and ever would be like being stuck in that mid-life crisis on certain level.
Her culture has a thing for long hair anyway and it would be easier to draw in a ponytail of sorts rather than keeping it consistently short and moving during action in panels.

>5 stars
what the fuck hiro

It kinda goes hand in hand with the way she is portrayed at the end of book 4.

>the way she is portrayed at the end of book 4.
That whole "save the cat" vibe?

Not sure what that vibe is. But the whole "i derserved all that happened" and the fact that she never got back anywhere near her old self before it ended. Seems fitting that the hairstyle signifying she was trying to hide who she was, wasn't changed back.

Though im pretty sure that wasn't what Bryke wants you to think.

>And her deciding to keep that haircut forever and ever would be like being stuck in that mid-life crisis on certain level.

It's just hair, in the end it just depends on which hairstyle she likes the most.

It's pretty clear symbolism, just like it was with Zuko in Atla.

And Zuko ends up copying his dad's exact hairstyle as an adult. What is that supposed to mean?

>Korra's more like an Avatar-themed miniseries that got another 3 seasons

Which is precisely what it was. It was originally intended to be a one-shot series, only later being expanded to 4 seasons.

He leaves the fire nation behind when he cut his hair, and only goes back to it once he is the new firelord, when he joins the fire nation again.

Korra cuts her hair to hide her identity, and never grows it back out again.

>and only goes back to it once he is the new firelord, when he joins the fire nation again.
He doesn't exactly grow back the same bald ponytail he used to have.

No he goes back to fire nation hair style. Zuko wouldn't go back to his ponytail since he moved on from the person that wore it.

Korra didn't move on, she has the exact hairstyle she got when she was ashamed of herself and trying to hide her identity. They didn't even try to change it.

The top knot is the main Fire Nation hairstyle, the anime hair he kept for most of the third season isn't really Fire Nation exclusive especially since he already kind of had it by the time of the book 2 finale while he was still in hiding.

Anyhow, there wasn't really much time during the events of book 4 for Korra to fully grow back enough hair to what she used to have or to something new.

She could have gone for a ponytail, or a suki like hairstyle. The point is just that haircutting can be symbolic, and definately is in these cases. And it's clear that Korra didn't move on from her problems like Zuko did.

>there wasn't really much time
Six months. Aang had a Ivy League cut in a few weeks and Zuko's hair grew out during Book 2 and all of ATLA took place within a year.

There is also evidence of Zuko improving to show that his life is taking a better turn with him controlling his life. Korra didn't show such an improvement.

and you ended up reading through their hot opinions anyways

care ceasing your faggotry?

>and you ended up reading through their hot opinions anyways
It's fun. They really have no ground to stand on when you start saying that Asami is wallpaper and Korra is a terrible character.

bitch

is that it lol

we all.

...

So many boners.

So are there any good scans of the artbooks yet?

is it even possible to get a grip on a tongue that's conveniently hanging out?

Depends on your grip strength really.

She's a spirit.

Long and short are both god tier. It is the same situation like with Rapunzel, you can prefer one or the other but the other is awesome too.

And that's just with ATLA!

Short hair makes her look a little more mature, which is a good thing for the end of the series.

I generally like all the visual changes they did for the timeskip.

I miss Korra too, mostly because of the ending. I thought it was pretty cool that the best thing the main character could do for their own sake is divorce themselves from their identity as the choses one. People really seem to like the idea of "Main character is the special, therefor they must become a hero and nothing else" where Korra just said "Fuck it, I'm going to scissor my girlfriend in the spirit world. Figure your shit out by yourself."

I think it could have been executed better, but at least it was something kind of different.

this
short hair Korra>Ponytail Korra>letting her hair flow Korra
which is ironic since Season 3 is my favorite

>tfw no fit caramel gf that can easily beat you up
why even live

>mfw they made Korra the village bicycle by accident (or willingly)

Legend of Korra was a massive disappointment after season 1. She was never competent. She never became a better Avatar across 4 fucking seasons. She was always, ALWAYS getting her shit slapped and fucking up the whole way through; and arguably her greatest accomplishments was fixing her own goddamn mistakes.

It was a show that feels like it was written in real time.

>dank little room
>crying

Is this comic canon?

>implying she knows how to sechs

They didn't dyke out. It's the flimsiest conclusion to draw from the ending. The point was to give Korra a companion and not a romantic partner as she begins her new identity as not the biggest fuck up of the Avatars.

The point is that it's about Korra becoming a more mature and competent adult on her own.

Yes

>Dated Bolin
>Dated Mako
>Is now dating Asami
Everyone gets a rid

Kuvira?

hole like a donut, everybody gets a turn

They should have built the Red Lotus into the over-arching enemies of LoK. It would have given some much needed continuity to the different seasons instead of just cleaning up the fuck-ups of the previous season.

And Korra needed to win fights on a regular basis. The Avatar had enough personality flaws without being weak.

Man, fuck Dark Korra and Bryke's refusal to explain that stupid shit.

I still like them as people, I just recognized that they are just ideafags and designers, while being bad writters.

All the people that worked with them say that they are great to work with tho. Niggas just need someone to keep the in check.

Pic not related.

what's going on here

That just looks like a man.

You like women when they most look like men.

Hair down Korra is best Korra

I could do with some long-haired Korra in the comic, if it ever comes out.

That's not a bicycle. That's bi. But not a bicycle.

Fuck them.

they got too comfortable on tumblr and actually started considering the points thrown at them.
ruined the show

Korra fighting a cage match with a big well endowed guy when Spirit Korra sabotages the fight, letting Korra get Falcon Punched by a slab of rock, tying her down with rock chains, and then making her tongue numb so it seems like she is asking for a dicking.

The whole premise of avatar is the cycle and history with all the past avatars
This show destroyed that cycle and subsequently went to shit
Bryke are terrible writers and it became clear they had no idea what to do with the show.

Korra should have been cancelled instead of dragged out past the point of no return

>b-baka!

Yeah, Raava getting ripped out of Korra and beaten to death while the past Avatars had huge negative emotional impact.

>the Avatar cycle ended
>Korra begins the new cycle
>the next Avatar will have to take advice from Korra
>she will fuck him up too
>same will happen to the next
>and the next

It is going to be rough for the next guy, but hopefully the White Lotus won't completely fuck up his or her life due to their interpretation of Korra's last words.

why does Asami with Mako's face look like Satsuki?

i say split the difference

give her the two side bangs like she had in S1 but keep the back lose and maybe mid-length

>useful advice from a previous avatar
Implying that any previous avatar has ever given good advice that wasn't literally linked to a situation they personally fucked up.

Roku was only helpful because Aang was asking about shit Roku caused and Aang was only helpful because Korra was dealing with shit Aang caused. Just like Kiyoshi's only useful moment was when Aang was dealing with her fighting Conqueror bro, and Wan's useful story was useful because Korra was fighting Vatu and dealing with Raava.

The next avatar will be dealing with fallout from the shit Korra started and dealt with, and so only Korra is going to offer any helpful advice, because what the fuck would Aang, Roku, Kiyoshi or anyone prior know about fighting technology-equipped factions, new age dictatorships or dealing with a modern, spirit-linked world? All erasing the previous avatar line did was make the avatar state less competent, but by the time Korra dies, she's going to be a solid bender in all four elements and also knows metalbending, unlike the previous shitters.

The next avatar will be fine.

>tfw no detectiveson and chief episode

To be fair, Aang fucked Korra up first by never giving her actual advice and bailing her out everytime shit got too hard.

Honestly, Korra's advice will still be better than the complete radio silence Korra had to put up with.

>because what the fuck would Aang, Roku, Kiyoshi or anyone prior know about fighting technology-equipped factions, new age dictatorships or dealing with a modern, spirit-linked world?

That you don't fight a technology-equipped faction but rather try diplomacy and make it so that they can't build too much if worse comes to worse.

That you don't allow dictatorships to form because you check on the people.

That you don't have a spirit-linked world because that's a terrible idea.

And erasing the past avatar line made it so that Korra couldn't even fight Kuvira or her mech properly. Kyoshi split a continent so with that power Korra could have sunk the mech upside in lava if she hadn't lost them. Aang successfully chased Ozai to the point where Ozai was exhausted when Korra couldn't even do that to Zaheer and kept getting hit because she couldn't do an air shield despite later doing it anyway in season 4.

The next Avatar will be fine. BUT only because it will be a situation like Korra where they emphasize the chucklefucks around said Avatar rather than the past life. They'll need their own Mako and Jinora.

>and bailing her out everytime shit got too hard.

Kind of funny people say this of Korra when Aang had the literal plot device state activate whenever he had in trouble.

Even with Aang, he ignored nearly all the advice he got from his past lives and just did what the lion turtle taught him to do.

>better than the complete radio silence Korra had to put up with.
Korra only got radio silence because she never tried. She makes a connection the moment she centers herself in Tarrlok's fun house, which makes it seem like she never actually tried in the past nor ever tried in the future (Book 2.)

>Kyoshi split a continent so with that power Korra could have sunk the mech upside in lava if she hadn't lost them.
It's not her fault Bryke gave the mech impenetrable plotonium armor. The avatar state in Korra was nerfed from the get-go, and even then Korra still should have been able to destroy the mech. She didn't because every time she attacked with boulders the size of houses her attacks bounced off harmlessly whereas when a bunch of kids attacked it it was blown away by fucking air.

Avatars can only really get advice from a few avatars back. They can't go a thousand years in the past. Bad avatars have probably been a recurring problem that have really held back later good avatars.

Regardless though, Korra is getting pretty wise by the end of Book 4. She will be quite the sage by the time she is old.

He went with his heart and his upbringing.

Be decisive.
Only justice can bring peace.
Actively shape your destiny.
Do whatever it takes to protect the world.

All can be used to reinforce Aang's decision to try that risky technique plus he did stand up to Ozai. Korra's the one that kept running away or crying during the final battles.

>Aang successfully chased Ozai to the point where Ozai was exhausted when Korra couldn't even do that to Zaheer and kept getting hit because she couldn't do an air shield despite later doing it anyway in season 4.

You mean the same Aang who got his shit pushed in during avatar state by one bolt from Azula?

>The avatar state in Korra was nerfed from the get-go

That's a poor excuse to use for Korra. Sure everything comes back to the terrible writing by the writers, but Korra has the power within her yet never uses it.

And the air attack by the Air Nation hit the mech but didn't do much while Korra's solo hit with air caused Kuvira to stumble and made the mech falter for a bit. Korra's attack actually did something but they couldn't let her solo the mech because then everyone else wouldn't get a chance to shine in the Legend of Korra which is a story about everyone.

>You mean the same Aang who got his shit pushed in during avatar state by one bolt from Azula?

And didn't lose the past lives and managed to still be just as powerful and didn't take 2.5 years to heal, and then when she is healed she actually isn't really healed until she is and then she isn't but then it's okay she spoke to her would-be killer who is the only person who understands her so, yes.

>"dammit Mako, the president is all over my ass about the Sozin Nation Arsonists. You better start getting me some leads or I'll have you catching cactus juice sniffers at St Momo's University for the rest of your career"

To be fair you can't compare some sucker shot to the back from a teenager that got healed right away with plot device magic water to getting tentacle raped by the nega-Avatar or getting shoved like 10 pounds of poison that is supposed to perma-fuck up every single internal organ.

>that got healed right away with plot device magic water
Why didn't they use that water again anyway? It brought someone back from the dead, it's powerful.

It's just too bad that coming up with vague ideas isn't actually that hard. It's making those ideas into a story that is compelling and internally consistent that is the hard part.

Sure change her haitstyle, but also show how she is different from before along with it. Give her back some of that fire she had in Book 3, and some of that spark people really liked from the promo stuff.

Plotbending

With Aang they wanted the Fire Nation to think that Aang was dead, for him to have to deal with having failed in Ba Sing Se but also needed Aang to be at full stength in the Fire Nation undercover adventures, so he gets plot device magic healing water.

With Korra they wanted her to go through a long recovery arc so she has to learn to walk again, deal with PTSD and deal with no longer having the strength to make a difference so she doesn't get plot device magic healing water.

If you need an in-universe explanation just make up something about how the spirit water can't heal poison, or that the NWT ran out of that water.

Not just the Avatar state, bending in general was nerfed pretty hard and only started to recover by book 3.

It's a good explanation because Korra doesn't have the power within her since the writers removed that power. Had they kept the Avatar state up to par with Atlas the mech would have been toast the second Korra could get to it, but it wasn't because they reduced the power of the Avatar state. Same happened in basicly every season she had the AS.

How was she wise exactly? The only real difference was that she tried out diplomacy and when it failed didn't go straight to violence.

Was Mako antisocial? I mean at the end sure but he didn't seen that bad.

Bolin was the first to ride it user

I'm going to need a name from that iamge set

It's made by polyle, and the name has cage in it i think

Artist name was enough

Caged with a Ghost

She was wise by the end. She talked Kuvira down. She will probably be wise as fuck within 20 years.

I disagree, Kuvira talked herself down while Korra did nothing to help that, she was just spouting nonsense.

The entire point of Book 4 was Korra learning what it feels like to be helpless and what that does to someone. That allowed her to talk Kuvira down.

Too bad she still can't relate at all to Kuvira and had no idea how to deal with the situation in the EK or even RC. They try to pass her off as wise, but it's very clear that she isn't in fact wise at all.

Just look at her statement about herself. She had to learn compassion from suffering. Too bad she was allready compassionate before she was made to suffer.

Her helplesness was self induced too, unlike Kuviras, since Korra had nothing but support but didn't take the help that was offered to get better.

>She talked Kuvira down
- you're wrong because you have daddy issues

- oh, really? i never noticed. You're totally right. I spent 3 goddamn years working hard thinking it was for this country, but no. It was daddy issues. You're right, let me just stop.

The point of Book 4 is right there. I'm not about to lay out the OBVIOUS intent of the writers over several posts just so you can switch the topic to how much you dislike the writing.

t. fascistboo

Understanding one's insecurities can have a profound effect on one's perspectives. Fascism has always been about fear.

When people are all set to change the motherfucking country, i don't think you can "change their mind" like that, unless you use a LOT of logic and correctly show the flaws in what the other guy thinks. Korra used none of that.

>daddy issues
Pretty sure it was mother issues

The intent doesn't matter when they can't put it into writing.

The fact is that Korra didn't get wiser from book 4, she got more depressed if anything. She learned nothing about the world during her time, and she didn't in fact experiance Kuviras helplessness. Their experiances are entirely different and they have almost nothing in common.

She still hasn't learned much about human interactions either, or about spirits and their impact on the world. Nothing about how dangerous it is to remove a power figure without someone to step in, afterall she supported Wu's decision to throw the EK into another possible civil war.

So again, how exactly was she wise? You have yet to explain why she would be considered as such. And don't say, "it's the intent" or "she just is".

i think when you're prepared to kill people for your goals, a simple 'you have daddy issues' won't change your mind. Do you honestly think people are retarded? objectively speaking Kuvira was still doing the best for the nation in a sense (it was literal chaos before).

Korra could have pointed out the issues with her system, but instead goes for daddy issues, the weakest form of argument.

Also, it's not exactly fascism what Kuvira is doing, and a dictatorship/monarchy is not always about fear. Do you honestly think everyone on her side was there because of fear? her soldiers liked her, and even the people of Ba Sing Se are shown to like what Kuvira was doing.

Pretty much she had both mommy and daddy issues.

Wtf guys let her rip

>The intent doesn't matter when they can't put it into writing
Well I'm glad we saved a few posts and cut right to the chase, but like I was saying I don't intend on listening to you bitching about the writing. Good day.

>She was wise
like when she left the south without telling anyone, making all her friends and family worried?

or like when she spent months in the earth nation and didn't even know what Kuvira was up to and had to be info dumped? or when her entire 'try diplomacy' with Kuvira in Zaofu was basically saying "kuvira, you have to stop because people said so"?

or do you mean 'on the very end' when she tried to talk down the person she just punched into submission?

This

Abandonment issues in general from losing her parents at a young age. Being thrown out and abandoned by Su Yin probably didn't help either.

Then read the rest. But i guess it just shows that you can't actually explain why Korra became wise without saying it was their intention despite the show never acknowledging that.

This

Never forget that Bryke were cowards who bitched out at the end

Still went too far.

Why did her parents abandoned her? Were they poor? Junkies? Bad people? I hope the comics will give us a backstory

I always assumed they died. Didn't they say she was an orphan or something?

comics will drop everything that isn't Korrasami

>intent doesn't matter
That's the problem right there. I was talking about where the writers were going with her. If they brought her back as an old woman she would be sage tier wise. I don't give a fuck about your complaints about the writing.

inb4 you tell me the subject of my original post doesn't matter

I get it. You don't like the writing, but the thing is, I don't care. This thread has been done a thousand times before.

We all know the logic. They didn't have a master plan coming out of Book 1 so they settled on Asami because it worked but pussied out of making the relationship development substantial. You can't end a series on a first date. You got to end on a kiss else what's the fucking point?

What i don't like is that you say she is wise, when that isn't the case.

Whatever happens later on and how she ends up as an old lady is irrelevant to book 4s portrayal of Korra, since we simply don't know how she will develop over time.

You're the one who stated she was pretty wise by the end but didn't manage to explain why. I have on the other hand given you many examples of things Korra could have become wise about, but wasn't.

I don't hate Korra, and i don't hate the writing of book 4, with a few exceptions, but she didn't become wise by the end. Intention or not.

according to your logic, they will bring her back with the intention of making her a wise sage, but she will be dumb as fuck due to writing. Which means it's still a shitty option.

>You don't like the writing
>like
not him, but it's not a question of "like". It's objectively shit.

This was the first pic I saw of her

I got hype

I shouldn't have

There were so many interesting plot points that went nowhere.

>You're the one who stated she was pretty wise by the end but didn't manage to explain why
Yes, the intent of the writers for over the course of the 4 books was to show Korra getting over her youthful failings.

Aang could relate with his enemies to an extent. Korra never could. Toph taught Korra that everyone she faced before had justifiable motives, something Korra hadn't acknowledged until then. This culminated in Korra having a heart to heart with Kuvira after Korra had defeated her, showing that she had gotten over that key difference she had with Aang.

Aang could relate to enemies but ran away from his problems and it took 3 books for him to finally PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH his problems to resolution. Korra had no problem with PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH but couldn't relate to her villains and it took her 4 books to learn how to see things from their perspective.

>It's objectively shit.
Not everyone agrees on that point for the same reasons, which is why these threads refuse to fucking die.

It was still Avatar in a vaguely 1920's steampunk setting. The novelty wore out by the 4th season but it was nonetheless a cool and worthwhile concept.

>the intent of the writers
>not actually in the show
that's just idiotic.

Do you really know their intentions? what if they intended for Korra to be a trans white man? is that even relevant to the show?

"I'll tell ya what that Kuvira needs, the old Fire Navy Handshake - two in the pink, one in the stink"

i don't think anyone thinks LoK had good writing; not even you. Also, when something is objective, it's not about "agreeing on it". It's how it just is. Kuvira going inside RC with a giant mecha that can shoot at kilometers of distance is objectively shit writing; there is no reason for her to do that, and she can just send her army if she even needs to go inside; something that she clearly does not.

But the problem is that it isn't what happens. Korra tries to get over her youthfull failings, and fails at it so she goes back to her old ways again.

And you're just flatout wrong about Korra not relating to her enemies. She understands Amon and that there are problems with non-bender/bender relations, but doesn't know how to deal with it.
She knows there's a spirit problem but doesn't know how to deal with it and ends up doing Unalaqs job for him, because she related that much to him.
She understood Zaheers problem with corrupt rulers, but didn't accept his way of dealing with that problem.
So her being told that by Toph doesn't change much beyond accepting something we allready knew, that Korra was struggling with, namely that she agreed to an extend with the villains, but thought that she shouldn't.

And the thing about her heart to heart is that in this case Korra in fact can't relate, but just goes with what Kuvira tells her. So either Korra was wise all along (not really the case) or she didn't become wise.

Also worth noting that she did in fact try to talk with Zaheer early on but it didn't work out.

>Aang could relate with his enemies to an extent
Did he with anyone outside of Zuko? He mostly just beat up in self defense anyone who tried to capture him.

I miss Korra but not her show or anyone else from it. I kind of want to put her as a guest character in a fighting game or something.

Well there is her own game where she is more true to character than most of the show. I found that to be pretty neat.

to be fair his other enemies were:
>omnicidal dictator
>teenage sociopath
>chinese littlefinger
>Zhao

none of whom are people you really can reason with (or he'd want to)

Watch Book 4 again. Specifically the Toph episode. It's not even subtext. It's flat out stated.

At this point I think you are being a contrarian piece of shit. I could tell you the sky is blue in TLOK and you'd disagree with me just to keep your hateboner going.

I was emphasizing that point just to contrast Korra really. The heart of Aang's problem is that he runs away from his problems, which CAN be construed as Aang not seeing everything as black and white like Korra does.

I like how the villains contrasted the protagonist. I think Korra would have done a lot better in Aang's place and vice versa. Aang the diplomat would be better at keeping the shit from the fan but Korra is better when the shit has already hit the fan.

...

I played it. I enjoyed it more than the show but it was still subpar because Korra didn't have anyone interesting to interact with. Gotta remember, half the LoK sucked is the supporting cast was just so damn uninteresting outside of the porn.

I mean like a complete out-of-left field inclusion in a arcade-style beat-em up or fighting game. Like, I want to see her show up in the new Dissidia or something. Her powerset feels like it'd make for a pretty good moveset in that game series, plus Team Ninja's soft engine means we get one hell of an SFM model of her.

The show doesn't lie user. She related to all the villains but didn't know how to deal with their issues and disagreed with their method. The Toph episodes a primarily about stopping Korra from feeling special and a failure because of it. And that more importantly you can't dwell on your failings. You have to let go essentially.

And had they wanted to make her wiser, they could have had her talk down Kuvira without resorting to personal issues without adressing why Kuviras actions where wrong.

I can see that. I just want another Avatar themed game desu.

Why was the son of an airbender and a waterbender in the Fire Nation Navy anyway? Did the Fire Nation Navy become Starfleet when nobody was looking?

The Earth Kingdom gave up it's land for Republic City

The Air Nomads lived there

The Fire Navy protected it

The Water Tribes bickered and whined until they got an extra seat on the bending council

Her enemies were
>Insane Bloodbender
>A man who unironically wanted to be the DARK AVATAR
>4 dangerous convicts who actually thought anarchy via assassination of leaders was a viable form of world order
>Earth Stalin with a spirit-powered laser on an actual giant robot.

I don't see how Aang would have talked them down, to be honest

>She understands Amon and that there are problems with non-bender/bender relations
"even if she doesn't say or do anything about it in the show"

>she did in fact try to talk with Zaheer
No. It was the other way around. Watch the episode; zaheer is the one that wants to talk.

She acknowledges the problem though. And i said she doesn't know how to deal with it, so that's why she doesn't do anything about it.

I know, but she gives him the chance and has an actual conversation with him. She could have just left and ignored him.

>She understands Amon and that there are problems with non-bender/bender relations, but doesn't know how to deal with it.

The problems were almost entirely manufactured by the nonbending extremists themselves though. Book 1 is deeply stupid in some ways because the actual problem with Republic city was the fact that it was a colony ruled by foreign powers, not that there were benders ruling it. The council was chosen so because they represented each of the world's CULTURES, not because they could heat up their tea without fire.

Also Zaheer only talked to capture her, he lied through his teeth.

Doesn't mean she didn't talk to him about his issue being corrupt governments.

Good post.

>bending council
RACE WAR NOW

No, I agree with you on Korra's open attitude, I'm just saying the villain never intended to have a serious discussion with her.

Oh, Thats fair.

...

>She acknowledges the problem though
what part exactly are you talking about. I'm curious.

>she gives him the chance
she only wants to know his motivation because it's easier to capture him like that. At that point they didn't know anything about it and any information would help.

>Bending war now

There is no racism in the Avatarverse

Episode 1: "well it could still be good, that game thing looks cool"
Episode 2 preview: dropped

Well theres the non-bender only curfew she reacts to. I also think she talks to Tarrlok about his treatment of non-benders being unfair.

>she only wants to know his motivation...
Sure, but they still talk about his issues, and she agrees that the Earth Queen is "evil" but that removing world leaders by force isn't the answer.

He wasn't in the Fire Nation navy it was the United Republic one.

Though I don't know why does a UN controlled country needs armed forces.

Bending is inherited.

RACE WAR NOW

>Though I don't know why does a UN controlled country needs armed forces.
Because the UN SHOULD have a military.

FEDERAL WORLD GOVERNMENT NOW

Who are the jius in this world?

Northern Tribe "merchants"

GLOBALIST GET REEEEEE

>Oy vey remember the air nation holocaust and the 6 gorillion dead, we deserve a spot in the United Republic council even if there are only 4 airbenders left and we also deserve to live on tax payer money.

she only talks about this specific fact, and not how nonbenders are generally treated before (what motivated equalism)

>they still talk about his issues
yeah, but that's not really her objective; she just wants to know why the hell this weirdo is trying to kidnap her

>she agrees that the Earth Queen is "evil"
didn't she told Suyin that she had nothing in mind about the queen? also, Korra hates the queen because of her personality, not because of the way she treats people, or because she thinks there is something wrong with the way she rules.

...

All I'm saying is that globalism ain't all bad. Sweatshops do more good than harm and international interdependence improves efficiency overall and helps prevent WW3.

Well no she doesn't, but she still sees that there is a clear problem and responds to it. That is acknowledging that the issue exists.

>she just wants to know why the hell this weirdo is trying to kidnap her
Yeah, but she finds out more and relates to what he tells her. She even agrees with him about the issue but not the solution.

>..because she thinks there is something wrong with the way she rules.
Actually she does think the queen is ruling wrong, that she treats her people horribly and essentially steals their money. But she doesn't know how to deal with this issue, she can't just go and remove the rightfull queen of the EK after all.

...

Did Korra inspire you to work out more, Cred Forums?

>That is acknowledging that the issue exists
she aknowledges that the police shouldn't arrest people for no reason and treat them as crimminals, and not that there was a motivation for equalism.

>she does think the queen is ruling wrong, that she treats her people horribly and essentially steals their money
even if she never actually said that, and told Suyin she doesn't have any opinion about the queen?

But she acknowledges that they're only doing it because they're non-benders and that there is a special curfew only for non-benders, and that it obviously isn't fair treatment. Which means there is a problem with them not having equal rights to other people.

>even if she never actually said that, and told Suyin she doesn't have any opinion about the queen?
She outright says she doesn't like the queen but that removing her isn't the right call to Zaheer. When she's talking to Suyin she doesn't support Suyins idea of removing the queen either.

Humans are all shit

SPECIES WAR NOW

>you will never be ravaged by Vaatulaq's 20ft dong and filled with his unholy neon spunk

Agree. It had misteps (mainly due to Nick's shitty management) but it was still miles beyond TV's average show.

The issue is that defending one specific right doesn't mean Korra finds that equalism is somehow right or that she now agrees with every issue they defend. Just because she is defending this particular injustice that she saw with her own eyes, it doesn't mean that she now fights, or even have any opinion, about other injustices in society that equalism defends

>doesn't like the queen
yeah, way back on that season Korra said that she wanted to punch her face because the queen lied to her, and not because of how she treats her people.

>she doesn't support Suyins idea of removing the queen either
that's not what she said to Suyin.

Vaatu was no more evil than Raava. He just wanted to create an antimatter universe and needed to destroy this universe to do it. If he succeeded than Raava would be the one trying to destroy the antimatter universe.

No, he was evil.

That's why Unalaq went insane but Wan/Aang/Korra went awesome

Wait wait, i never said she defended the equalists. She can relate to them and see it from their point of view, but doesn't condone their solutions. I general we don't see her discriminate against non-benders and when we see her confronted with injustices of equalism her response is actually generally positive towards them.

>...and not because of how she treats her people.
That and she considered the queen to be abducting the airbenders. She would like the queen removed, but can't just remove her because of the queen is the rightfull ruler at the time.

>that's not what she said to Suyin.
sry, my bad. Korra does want the queen removed, but doesn't support Zaheers way of doing it. Thats why im saying she can relate to his position that corrupt leaders are a problem and shouldn't be leaders, but removing them by force isn't the solutions. If i remember correctly Suyin doesn't support force to remove the queen, but thinks she should step down and get with the times.

Unalaq should have gotten Vaatu to fall in love with him first like Wan did with Raava.

>like Wan did with Raava.
Is that the reason why all Avatars that have had major focus had firebender husbandos?

>Aanko
>Zaag
Thanks but no thanks.

The original poins is if Korra can aknowledge the point of view of the enemy, even if she doesn't agree with their methods. If she doesn't realize, show or express in any way her approval of the original issues the equalists had for their movement, how is it that she 'relate' to them?

About zaheer, while she doesn't agree with his methods, it doesn't looks like she agrees with his way of thinking either; that the leaders are corrupt i mean. Actually, it doesn't look like she have any opinion about it as the show wasn't very clear on that point. Even if they wanted to show that she realize by herself the enemies's point of view, the writers did an awful job that can barely pass as intention.

...

But she did, as with the example of curfew. She supports the non-benders that are being unfairly oppressed.

She says about the world leaders:"I don't agree with them, but taking them out isn't the answer" If that doesn't mean that she sees the problem Zaheer has with incompetent leaders, but disagreeing about his methods, i don't know how it could be made clearer.

>Implying the next Avatar won't go to sifu Henry Rollins for guidance instead
>Implying all future Avatars won't have The Dao of the Red Lotus as an essay to consult in times of moral conflict

Aang could have monked Zaheer down.

The next Avatar will be a Beifong. You can't deny it.

I deny it.

Also, The next Avatar will be a chibi ATLA reboot.

Nah they'd just bicker over what Laghima truly meant

Go to bed Teen Titans

>The next Avatar will be a chibi ATLA reboot.

What the fuck is up with every movie/show being rebooted these last years? Can't people make original stories anymore?

I miss Lok and atla. What bothered me the most with it was how good season 3 ended off with and practically sets up season 4 but they forgot half way what they were going to do.
>there are still more red lotus members out there
>air nomads are going to go everywhere and do the avatars job while she recovers

Instead, we get an episode about the air nation failing, and kuvira taking over the earth Kingdom for a lousy reason they couldn't bother giving her an episode to explain.
Then no site of the red lotus was a disappointment beyond belief. They could have just have carried that idea over but they went with kuvira.

With that being said. I still liked lok.

We already had that

youtube.com/watch?v=UqsVvRThBK4

youtube.com/watch?v=LiRYB8YLaGk

>Suu
>eternally butthurt that Kuvira dumped her

God, no matter how many times I see it, Kuvira's fighting style is gorgeous.

>Zaheer: Guys, leave this one to me.
*3 hour debate about freedom vs government control as seen through Air Bender philosophy*

>Suu gets a couple hits in
>Korra could have blown her the fuck out if she didn't have poisoning ptsd

TV in general is suffering and networks are rebooting reliable IPs in order to bring in the viewer. That's why Nickelodeon is finally doing the final Hey Arnold! movie.

...

I just want them to reboot Korra with a competent writing crew.

But if they did have to fight then Zaheer wouldn't stand much of a chance, seeing how badly he lost to Tenzin.

Those guys were cool, but I really wish that the leaders of the Red Lotus weren't a bunch of convicts. They had people in high lvls of government everywhere, which suggested that some powerful Pai Mei-type should have been free to puppet master things from the shadows for decades.

Same.

Just a 22 long season of actual fleshed out characters, the same action, and a fulfilling ending.

Water looks a bit like Tai Lee

I'd imagine the logical choice would be to pick a random avatar we haven't seen yet pre Kiyoshi and do a series about them.

Any more modern than LoK would probably be pushing it, and going back a few centuries in history would allow lots of freedom in story and setting.

>Any more modern than LoK would probably be pushing it

Clearly the solution is AVATAR OF THE FUTURE!!

22 episodes for all the 4 previous seasons? I could dig it. Wouldn't giving someone the same number of episodes and same premise and just let them fix LoKs mistakes.

I unironically want a future, modern day avatar. It would be neat to see what kind of scenario they'd come up with.

Anyone hate how LoK was too advanced?

I mean shit ATLA took place in what would be I think 400 A.D ancient China technology wise right?

Korra should have taken place around 1000 A.D China.

>but I really wish that the leaders of the Red Lotus weren't a bunch of convicts
Pretty sure that Zaheer said that they aren't leaders of Red Lotus and that there are more of them, and they only became convicts after they formed the Red Lotus.

...

Yeah, because ancient China had jet skis, tanks, submarines, trains and giant drills.

It only really became an issue for me with book 4 where they went full mecha/mordern looking tech.

>I miss Korra
So do I
BUT MY AIM IS GETTIN' BETTER

Nope. It made sense. The Fire Nation was already pretty advanced, and they turned a small balloon into giant airships within a year. They had giant drills, metal tanks, refrigerators, coal-fueled metal ships, etc. They already were pretty industrial. After the war, it only makes sense for them to share their advancements with the world and for the world to begin advancing technologically without the war holding it back.

I mean, IRL we went from most people still using horses in 1900 to putting people on the moon in 1969.

>to putting people on the moon in 1969.
OR DID WE?

Its obvious Fire Nation was glorious Nippon while everyone else was 400 A.D China. Also the Ba Sing Se trains are movedby earthbending, they didnt have industrial rails till Book 4 in LoK.

Thats purely due to the invention of circuit a gateway technology that allows a myriad of other technologies, without electricity we would still be the medieval ages in terms of technology even to this day.

Even if they can generate electricity there is still time needed to invented transformers, wires, engines, and transistors so the tech we see in LoK is bullshit.

Yeah, Avatar Nixon was the world's greatest metalbender and pushed the rocket up to the moon himself

Explain the giant drill and the tanks then

I'd be completely fine with them having 25 episodes to fix season 1 and 2. Carry amon over to season 2, drop unalaq as a bad guy and make him Korras spirit teacher. Make Korra lose airbending then have her travel making spiritual connections and eventually getting other bending back. Then taking out amon in an actual fight.

>Korra's journey through the spirit world, overcoming themed challenges to unlock her bloodbent chakras and regain her bending and the avatar state

i want it....

Steam powered

It worked by momentum of gears shifting and cranking not electricity.

Roman knews about electricity but they had no idea how to really use it, you need a metal that conducts electricity to even use it then have the energy be converted into say kinetic energy to move the part of a machine this momentum is then transferred from gear to gear operating the machine.

Light bulbs are not possible in Avatar because they dont even know what the noble gases are not would have the science on how to create filaments either.

So having electric tech in avatar is impossible.

Though they could be steam powered.

>Light bulbs are not possible in Avatar because they dont even know what the noble gases are

They have guys who can manipulate gases with karate. Sure they do

This

You could honestly take any individual season or group of seasons and make them amazing. Doesn't even need more episodes than they got.

You'd have to rewrite a lot of Korra's book 1 arc and personality to get that to work. As it is, it just comes off as unnecessarily punishing her.

They call air "air" they dont even what gas elements are. Also you would need to heat up and ionize air to produce plasma which would create light then contain in a transparent object that wont melt from the heat to create a lightbulb. Firebenders are walking light sources though.

Was Korra not successful?

Why is there no Avatar 3?

I kind of would like to see older Ang stories or older Korra in a more futuristic setting.

They call earth "earth" too, but they can identify other and individual compounds within it. Why would air be any different?

>Was Korra not successful?

Not successful enough.

>Why is there no Avatar 3?

Avatar 2 and the movie made fuck all money.

>you'll never have a reboot
Talking about it hurts

Human tribes have classify different rocks and metals before we had civilizations but classifying the invisible mixture of gas in front of you is harder than it looks without chemical knowledge.

Also rather than electricity they should learn to use chi powered technology.

>Was Korra not successful?
It was but I think not enough for Nick to seriously invest in keeping the franchise going, but it's probably because they've never really known what to do with it more than Korra not making enough money.

>Why is there no Avatar 3?
Mike and Bryan are burnt out and want to try different things and Nick doesn't know how to treat Avatar well. Chances are there will be another entry in the series but not for a few more years.

Volton is a moderate subsidiary but still doesnt really come close.

>Even if they can generate electricity there is still time needed to invented transformers, wires, engines, and transistors so the tech we see in LoK is bullshit.

So it's perfectly reasonable for us to advance a ton in ~70 years but it's bullshit when the Avatar world does the same when one nation is already pretty damned advanced?

>Light bulbs are not possible in Avatar because they dont even know what the noble gases are

Do you have proof of that?

> not would have the science on how to create filaments either.

And they can't discover that when not stuck in a 100 year war?

>Was Korra not successful?

Nickelodeon didn't like that it was successful and sabotaged its ratings.

>Why is there no Avatar 3?

Because Bryke want to take a break and work on separate projects for now. They'll eventually return to avatar though.

Looks like Chief O'Brien

just because you support one given situation it doesn't mean you will support in another or will support another belief of a movement. Let's say they were also defending equal pay for benders and nonbenders, Korra doesn't automatically approves of that.

>She says about the world leaders:"I don't agree with them, but taking them out isn't the answer"
you're reading too much into it; not only some of those world leaders are her parents, one of them she didn't even met. At that point the only leaders she met that weren't family were Raiko (that kicked her out and didn't help her in S02) and the earth queen (that kidnapped airbenders). Not agreeing with them doesn't mean she thinks they are corrupt, or that she even gave any thought on that matter.

No fuck her. Best girl coming through

maybe she's Ty Lee and Sokka's child, assuming that by being related to Katara Sokka had the genetic potential to father a waterbender, if not then Ty Lee and some random waterbender

>It made sense
if you ignore the bipedal mechas that we can't even properly make today, yes.

>if you ignore the bipedal mechas that we can't even properly make today

Crucially, we lack the power to manipulate metal with magic kung fu

>best girl
she is not even best loli.

Everyone in this picture is too god damn cute.

While true, we see that she is against Tarrlok almost all the time for various reasons, and we don't see her ever be against equality between non-benders and benders. The closest to that would be when the equalists want to descriminate against benders.

>you're reading too much into it
Not really since Zaheer is talking specificly about Raiko as a moron, and the Queen as corrupt. Then he suggests to remove them and that she agrees with him, which she doesn't as it isn't the right way to go about it.

Reminder that your waifu swallowed Kai's cum and then gave herself a reverse mohawk

>not enough for Nick to seriously invest in keeping the franchise going
Pretty much. Why waste money on a show that requires expensive animation when you can keep milking Spongebob and FOP for the rest of eternity?

They already had mechas in Book 1, it makes sense that they'd eventually figure out how to make them be able to properly walk. Also

there was a goddamn engine on the mecha. Clearly it wasn't being pushed around with bending. They wouldn't even be able to see where the hell they were bending stuff or what direction they should go. Also, in S01 we had nonbenders riding bipedal mechas, so it is unlikely they were moving the giant one with bending.

The book 1 mechas are basicly forklifts though. Asami even mentions that they function exactly like forklifts. They very different from bipedal personal mechs, flying by wing power mechs, and a building sized mecha, which they can't actually produce with metal bending since it is made with a platinum shell.

>so it is unlikely they were moving the giant one with bending

We saw Kuvira in the head, literally directing it's movements with bending

nah, she is only using him and won't get even close to a dick in her life. She will just stay pure and stick with the romance between girls.

>So it's perfectly reasonable for us to advance a ton in ~70 years
Due to electricity
>but it's bullshit when the Avatar world does the same when one nation is already pretty damned advanced?
Fire Nation isnt even as advanced as 1400 Europe.

We dont have tanks that can flip over either, but ATLA does. Point is, they can invent tech we dont have.

>that fucking comic
why did you have to remind me that exists

Sure they can, but in Atla the tech was pretty close to real world things while the mechas from book 4 of LoK are not.

>Due to electricity
Which obviously was invented.

>Fire Nation isnt even as advanced as 1400 Europe.

In some senses they are far more advanced

Hang on a sec.....is Korra topless there?

The Fight scenes were lit though.

No electricity was discovered, what European scientist invented as a way to utilize it to power technology.
>In some senses they are far more advanced
Well they can create fire so thats not surprising.

...

in retrospect, I absolutely love the franchise, I was kind of critical of seasons 2 and 4 of LoK but even they have their moments
if I had to rate them I'd give them:
ATLA b1:8
ATLA b2:10
ATLA b3:9
LOK b1:8
LOK b2:7
LOK b3:9
LOK b4:8

>Fire Nation isnt even as advanced as 1400 Europe.

We didn't have iron steam-powered ships until the 1800s

>we see that she is against Tarrlok almost all the time for various reasons
"muh daddy was northern scum" being the major one.

>Zaheer is talking specificly about Raiko as a moron, and the Queen as corrupt
based on what i remember, he is only talking generally about the world leaders, no? either way, like with Amon, this would be very set on those two characters instead of world leaders or Zaheers beliefs.

Yes

yes, it's from a porn comic where Jinora basically dominates and conditions Korra into being her slave

...

>They already had mechas in Book 1
Yeah, that's the problem.

by the way, they were moved mechanically, since nonbenders could use it.

at least get a video where we can actually see her moving the entire mecha with her bending.

And again, nonbenders in S01 were moving bipedal machines.

What? Korra didn't know about that until the last or second last episode.

No he mentions them both specificly as examples of poor leaders that he thinks should be killed. Korra has experienced their incompetence but doesn't agree with killing them.

But like you said, the early mechas were like forklifts. the Book 4 mechas are just an advancement on that.

We don't have tanks that can flip over and climb mountains, but the Avatar World does.

We don't have mecha-forklift-things or bipedal mechas, but the avatar world does.

Dick move Lin

I just realized how bullshit the equalist electric glove is.

I'm sure we could have bipedal mechas if they weren't so ineffective.

>LOK b2:7
>LOK b1:8
>LOK b3:9
>LOK b4:8

>it's a "user have low standards" post

No they're not actually. They're invented by Varrick from the ground up. Book 1 mechs use tracks, while all book 4 mechs have legs.

Actually the mechs from book 1 just has their lift removed and changed to guns as well as a rotating cockpit not even that advanced.

>I'm sure we could have bipedal mechas if they weren't so ineffective

DARPA thought so too, once upon a time

i.4cdn.org/wsg/1475531533095.webm

Bipedalism is crap because its a bitch to gravity, quadruped mechas are the way to go.

It's basically just a really strong taser built into a glove. I wonder if a firebender could protect themselves from it by generating lightning to increase the resistance in their body, of course this would require the presence of mind to lightningbend while being tased

How would you guys handle amon?
Would you keep tarloc? Would you keep the blood bending?

I would personally keep tarrlok but not make him related to amon. Make amon half cyborg and make the story about the fire bender fucking his shit up true. Tarrlok can't blood bend because of robot parts, I guess?

It sounds cooler in my head.

Doesn't Mako do something like that against an equalist mech?

>Korra didn't know about that until the last or second last episode
her dad being from the north? she knew that from episode 2. The fact that he was basically a crimminal there is why she was mad at him.

>Korra has experienced their incompetence but doesn't agree with killing them
exactly; those two specific characters. Again, i think you're reading too much into it; Korra doesn't have any kind of stance on general politics or beliefs.

...

Keep the same shit about him being a bloodbender, but I'd combine books 1 and 2 and make him the villain of both, and maybe somehow also make him Korra's uncle just because of the twist. Unfortunately you'd have to get rid of Tarrlok for that to work.

STOP IT

What does Korras dad have to do with Tarrlok and him oppressing non-benders?

Korras experiences with world leaders, barring her father i guess, is that they're incompetent or evil. Unalaq, Tarrlok, the Queen and Raiko all fit that perfectly. Zaheer generalises and says all leaders are corrupt and incompetent, to which Korra says, that while she disagrees with those leaders, she wouldn't kill them off.

She gets what he is talking about (relates to him) but doesn't like his solution.

Yes how the shit did they actually make it? How is the glove generating an electric current and how do they turn off the electric current?

I think Korra always knew her dad was from the north. I mean, her uncle was the chief.

Keep them both, no bloodbending, or only Tarrlok as a bloodbender. Amon is not related to Tarrlok and his original story is true, which could lead well into Book 2 about spirits.

For her entire life she was the world's most eligible airbender. She must have had guys fawning over her from a young age.

And those white lotus chaps, all sequestered on Air Temple Island with nobody but themselves, Councilman Tenzin's wife and lovely little Jinora....

FUND IT

Keep the murder suicide?

Maybe, but then you'd have to explain why Amon would take Tarrlok with him after leaving.

I think it would be better if Amon got away and could be a continued villain in Book 2, where we could how he got his spirit powers, maybe he got it from Vaatu.

>benders can bring down buildings, killing thousands
RACE WAR NOW

>What does Korras dad have to do with Tarrlok and him oppressing non-benders
thought that was the name of her dad so i was a bit confused there. Anyway, being against what Tarlok did later to the nonbenders doesn't mean she defends equalism. And again, "Not seeing her be against it" is not a very good argument when her support of their beliefs is what is being discussed.

Also, Tarlok doesn't really count as 'world leader', and her experiences with those world leaders have nothing to do with being against the government/leaders in general. Unalaq was just an evil cunt, Raiko simply didn't help her when she needed, and the queen is just an ass. Hell, being against world leaders would mean being against her own family and other nations that she hasn't even met. As you said so yourself, she disagrees with Those leaders, not the idea of leaders/governments that zaheer is talking about.

Crimminal* from the north.

evidently at some point they invented the chemical battery

>Maybe, but then you'd have to explain why Amon would take Tarrlok with him after leaving.
they were lovers? It could work

You're saying she isn't supporting the belief that people should be equal, but when confronted with inequality she helps the oppressed.

Tarrlok show quite well why Zaheer things the way he does. Tarrlok was able to take control of a council unopposed because they others were incompetent.
Look, she doesn't want a world without leaders, but given her experience with leaders of the world she can see where Zaheer is coming from, she relates to his opinion that world leaders are incompetent. She just doesn't agree with him that killing them is the right choice. I imagine she would support elections to get new leaders though, or someone to hold them accountable for their actions.

You think that's funny? your daughterfu is shit so you must try to pick on mine?

I bet the FN was full Cyberpunk by Korra's time.

Sure, it could be a stand in for another relationship we wouldn't have to do.

Framed for a crime he didn't commit* from the north

Zaheer thinks*

Mike's AMA is apparently going on right now or it already finished. I guess nothing new or exciting was revealed.

Nope, same as always. A bunch of people kissing his ass telling how Atla and LoK changed world.

>You're saying she isn't supporting the belief that people should be equal, but when confronted with inequality she helps the oppressed
she was confronted with inequality in Ba Sing Se as well and didn't do anything. She also didn't do anything before that thing with the cops taking people. There was plenty of inequality facing her and she didn't do anything about it in the show; hell, she didn't even help Raiko get elected, people rebelled and were able to do it. So why do you consider that she somehow is adept of the equalists ideas?

>Tarrlok was able to take control of a council unopposed because they others were incompetent
Tenzin opposed

>given her experience with leaders of the world she can see where Zaheer is coming from
i don't think she even knows what zaheer is talking about, or at least the writing didn't help at all on that matter.

Short hair Korra does things to me.

You know what would be a really good invention? Making bending proof buildings.

Search your feelings user. You know it to be true

I think she likes equality, because she wants to help people. Which she tries to do when confronted with inequality. In Ba Sing Se she doesn't actually like the Queen, but quickly realises that she can't do anything about it.

Why would she help Raiko get elected? The fact that there was an election should be enough and she shouldn't interfere with that.

>Tenzin opposed
Tenzin failed aswell. The other members just followed him blindly, it shows rather perfectly why the system didn't work.

>i don't think she even knows what zaheer
He tells her "you've had to deal with a moronic president", she knows what he's talking about. He brings up examples of people she knows and have problems with for that reason. He wants to kill them, she doesn't. So they can agree that there is an issue with who becomes leaders but not on how to fix it.

Anyway this has derailed enough, so last response.

I don't think Aang would be very happy and smug about that

Is it good things?

In polite company, no.

Edgy, Mr 12 year old

Why not? More airbenders!

Kuvira?

>two airbenders going about the making of airbending babies from a young age
aang would be over yue

Insecure people and their silly tumblr boogieman

>One good comic
It's criminal

>Still thinking Varney rolling her eyes at the implication of end Makorra was some kinda Trolling.

They did say that the only social media site they follow is tumblr, and it just so happens that they followed the tumblr trend.

Tumblr trend would have been baiting it. Letting it happen. Then Asami would have died leaving Korra alone.

The tumblr trend was Korrasami, and that's what we got.

>Asami dies instead of Hiroshi right after saying she loves Korra
>Korra goes on a spirit world vacation with Hiroshi instead

Did Jinora ever have an adorable tea party with some baby sky bison? I think not.

I prefer the art of Jinora sucking on Korras massive erection.

And she was also tied up and fed macaroons

>dated
>went on one date
you don't get out much, do you?

I'll still respond, take from it what you will.

>I think
that's the problem; it's not in the show. Perhaps because they make such a shit job at showing motivations, but it certainly doesn't look like she "see that equalism could work with the right means", or even care that much. As i said, she ignored plenty of inequality; in Ba Sing Se she saw poverty, and she saw poor people trying to take the money back from the earth queen and STILL took it back to her.

>The fact that there was an election should be enough and she shouldn't interfere with that
that is kind of my point. It's not about Raiko, but elections; she didn't move a finger to help people conquer that right.

>it shows rather perfectly why the system didn't work
it shows there is also good people in power and it doesn't make it so easy to "take power". That's kind of why i said Tarlok is a bad example; he is not exactly a world leader. If matters were different i doubt he could do anything. Only on that specific point he could do something.

>she knows what he's talking about
a moronic president, right? not at all the 'all governments are bad' bullshit.

Look where you are.

>Coulda had a sassy brown heroine with a hear of gold
>Instead got bitching, whining, handouts, weakness, etc.

I spent way too long making that poster. Fuck that was literally 6 years ago...

Its a pretty good poster.

is good

>there are still non-benders left in the world after Harmonic Convergence

Why not just wipe them all out? It's clear that they are inferior beings.

>implying best human wasn't a non-bender

Ok WHat the hell is with the filler pics?

You have it under spoiler-vision!!!
Post the REAL PIC for fucks sake!!!

He and his son Varrick are the only exceptions

show me the dick korra

I realized about the second time they were used in fights that they made for a very boring fighting style.

I can't believe that Asami was stuck for four seasons just cartwheeling and electrocuting non-benders mooks. No wonder Bryke usually wrote her out of the finales.

user, whether or not you like it, this is still a blue board. If you really want the image you can find it on paheal.

I just want another platinum game where it deals with Aang after the end of the war and korra after season 4 dealing with a grandfather grandson duo, aang fights the grandfather and the grandson fights korra

It looks like we'll be seeing some Fire Nation in the upcoming Korra comics.

Did he happen to say when the LoK will ever come out? It has been ages, except for the FCD book.

The initial release date was after the first volume of North and South which I think is due out this month/November, but it could have been pushed back. I'm assuming since there's going to be an announcement at NYCC this weekend it'll be out before Spring.

Nope, also wasn't there a change in artists earlier this year?

That's why claims that Asami is actually super strong are hilarious, she's easily the weakest of the Krew and that her fighting style is just self-defense. Her strengths lie elsewhere.

>The initial release date was after the first volume of North and South which I think is due out this month/November,
It already came out

She was born without arms...

Oh, then I'm gonna guess the LOK comics have been pushed back because we've heard pretty much nothing about them.

Make prints, sell it illegally

The non-bender is always going to be the weakest of the bunch no matter what.

Canon aside I always liked the idea of someone chopping off her arms thinking it would remove her bending powers only for her to find a way to become stronger.

IIRC that specific piece has been declared non-canon and was just done as fun.

...

...

Fuck, I just want to see more Kora adventures without having to pretend that Korra and Asami's relationship was anything beyond a last minute asspull

Is that code for "finger banging"?

most likely

??????
what? you cant post ludes even under spoiler vision? that's fucked!

Will Lin finally find love in the comics?

Her true love is the law. He can fuck Mako and the rest of the cops on the side.

*She

Yes, with Bumi

It's not like all of Aang's mentor's were paragons of wisdom.
