I wish the creators of Avatar would explain how the second avatar knew he was the avatar... A story I would love to hear!
Yeah, I agree. I wish that the creators would do that.
Maybe raava was able to talk to side avatar and told them.
yeah, back then the sages didn't exist so there was nobody that could tell you that you were the avatar. but if i had to try and guess, i would say that like little kid Korra, he probably discovered he had the abilities by using them one day accidentally.
Well it's likely that the first 10 or so avater didn't know that they were it was probably when the four nations just started their founding when they realized that every 100 years or so I new person with all four elements (it's likely that the four nations didn't communicate a lot because of war) but they'd figure out the cycle and what the avater was
Same here. It would be a very interesting story in my opinion.
The first avatar: Wan, the second avatar: Tu
The third avatar: tre
The Fourth Avatar, Faux
7th avatar: sevn
The eight avatar: yet
Ninth avatar: nigh
I think my mom is the avatar because when i needed her the most she vanished

God fucking damn

I think everyone seems to forget that Wan isnt just the first avatar. He's the ONLY avatar. He was reborn again and again after his first life as Wan. He's Aang, Kyoshi, Korra and all the others. Though they all have their own memories and personalities. They are still one and the same.
Yeah, a reincarnation
Pretty weird to think about that aang is WAN
I look at them as different people no matter how hard I try XD
@@tonyyss3322 they technically are different people with the same soul lol they have their own memories and experiences, seperate personalities. But yes, Aang is technically Wan just reborn again...and again...and again. Until Korra ruined it.
they are still wan and the same
Imagine being the next avatar, some big villain comes up and you have no idea how to deal with him, you get told "Don't worry fam, you can just call up some of the previous avatars for help" And then you do, but the only one there is fucking korra
Proto Champion 😂😂😂
Proto Champion lmao
Poggers
Proto Champion and then she’s prob like
what do you want me to do i don’t know
Proto Champion wait I have no idea what you mean cause I didn’t really watch Korra. Can someone please explain?
I know everyone is making fun of wan’s name, but did you know that “wan” means 10,000 in chinese? This seems suitable since harmonic convergence happens once every 10,000 years
Damn, that is pretty brilliant.
just like the giant owl guy was wan shi tong which means “he who knows 10,000” things!
Damn that's pretty big
@@honeydew311 It all makes sense now.
I know that. I'm a sinoboo
There NEEDS to be a series on the next avatar. This avatar should focused on regaining the past lives of the avatar
Doesn’t make sense that once the line has been severed it can be repaired
@@seary2416 but it's said somewhere that it's impossible to destroy the Avatar cycle. I might be too optimistic, but I don't think the creators are the type of people who would just end the story like that. They'll make a show about the next Avatar that regains the connection, mark my words. Plus, guru Pathik also told Aang that if he ran away to help Katara, he wouldn't be able to get into the Avatar state and boom! He actually did later. So yeah. It all depends on what the writers choose, everything's possible. I swear, sometimes people are literally trying to find logic in a cartoon where the only limit is whatever Bryke choose. 🙄
Emily E Part of me sincerely doubts that the writers would do that, but I really, really want them to. Spend a few episodes, if not a whole season fixing Korra’s mess and getting shit actually back on track instead of having to start over. Also think it has potential for some good comedy relief, like the link is built a little wrong and you end up with teenage Roku or teenage Kyoshi. Give us insight into what they were like younger while also leaving more conflict for the new avatar to solve. But yeah, we’ll likely just be stuck with bratty Korra who will tell the next avatar to not listen to common sense.
They prolly will make 2 more shows, 1 for earth avatar and 1 for fire avatar to complete the cycle
I only like the original show of Airbender
Can you imagine the 2nd avatar's reaction when they can bend more than one element then suddenly wan showed up as a ghost. That must have been one hell of a freak out
LOL I CAN IMAGINE THAT
I still can’t believe in The Legend of Korra the creators deleted Aang, Roku, Yangchen, Wan, and 10,000 years of avatars.
it was unaloq, not korra
Don't forget Avatar Kyoshi
Lapis Lazuli best girl kyoshi. You should check out the books
@UzumakiThinker Not going to lie Kyoshi is my favorite, Aang and Korra are tied for second in my heart
Did she ever get them back
I’m still so pissed that the avatar cycle was restarted.
Wait I haven’t watch LOK since it came out; can you explain to me what happened? So is there no such thing as the avatar anymore? Restarted? So does that mean no future avatar (if there’s a such thing as more avatars) can’t ever talk to Aang or Roku or kioshi, etc anymore?
Edit: I rewatched the show and I am very sad. Okay that’s all.
just pretend its not canon and hasn't been restarted
That ho dead ass killed everyone bro like wtf
Korra is not canon. Dont bother yourself. The original writers in avatar didnt write Korra. So Korea is just a trash story at best
ten tail madara I’ve never watched it but from what I’ve heard I’ll just pretend it doesn’t exist
A lot of people are saying that the reset of the avatar cycle doesn’t matter, but like, The Avatar State is extremely powerful because it combine all the knowledge of the past avatars, along with Raava’s power. But with Ravaa and all of the old avatars being killed, the avatar state is almost worthless.
Korra can easily circumvent that with her energybending and the next one will have easy access to her knowledge.
Raava is still there. Korra ripped her out of unavaatu. After raava was destroyed, she started growing immediately inside vaatu. It’s the past lives that are gone
True
I didn't even watch the entirety of Korra, but even I know you can't argue with this comment because that was literally the entire point of the writers doing that.
Korra lives in a world where they feel the avatar is no longer necessary. So they were like "let's prove it by restarting the avatar cycle" as if that was a good idea.
But as long as good exists, so will evil. Peace cannot and will not remain forever. So even if Korra's world doesn't currently need an avatar, sometime later in her current life or in one of her reincarnations, the world will need an Avatar again. And when future avatars look up to statues of Aang, Kyoshi, Roku, etc and go to call upon these past lives in times of need, they will not be there.
The next time an avatar needs to master all four elements in a few months time to prevent the world from destruction, Wan and Aang will not be there to provide guidance.
Remember when Aang was lost and stuck trying to decide how to handle the fire lord? He didn't just look to Roku for guidance. He went back multiple generations of avatars to seek out their guidance and their stories.
What if the next avatar is put in such a dire and desperate situation? What if violence breaks out between the humans and spirits again? If the next avatar has to live through that, the only person they will have left to call on will be the avatar who started that war by disrespecting the first true avatar whose wisdom in *this specific scenario created the avatar cycle in the first place*
Korra realising she f#cked up
15:52 the creators confirmed that the spirits of the Avatars aren't dead and that they're pretty much just chilling in the spirit world.
Wayward Joker REALLY?

Of course he's gonna be bad he is the first
No one talking about the fact that Raava lost Wan. Their bond was an eternity and now its gone. They loved each other and now look.....
I went there. I was not ready for my heart to hurt like this.
Well just know that the spirits of all the avatars might be gone but their human spirit is still there
She didn't lose wan. Korra is wan reincarnated.
Every avatar is the same soul in different body and personality basically
I reminds me when toph said if freindships can transcend lifetimes and toph met aang in his next life excpet its forever
The Wan who started it all.
This comment will go down in history
I hate you
Actually. The name of the first avatar was based on this exact pun.
They called him Wan because he was the first avatar, the number ONE of all. ¿Makes sense now? lol
The wan who RUINED it all.
I AM YU LAW..!!
I AM NOBODY BEACH..!!
YOU ARE MINE..
(_____________)....
I WILL BE THE WAN..!!
😂😂😂
Im thinking maybe his half good half bad character is reference to the avatars duty to keep balance since you cant have good without bad
Yin and Yang
Exactly just like Yin-and-Yang and it's so sad that they took that away and replace with Westernized version of the polarity with Vaatu, and Raavu. I don't mind the first avatar but I don't like when they replace the idea of Yin-and-Yang like it's not there anymore. Although, one thing they both have in common are still considered to be balance of bad and good even though there are differences between the bad and good. Like for example, from personal experience I can be selfish, quite loud, moody, sound like I'm a dog or an animal, and careless.
My positives are actually too sensitive (I am an emotional empath and know when someone is lying), strong than I thought because I feel looked down by others from personal experiences I appear as emotionless being that I don't wanna hurt people, smart, creative, relaxed, and emotional. Although I'm not good at speaking up for myself I realize the compliments I get that I have strong argument or opinions.
FaunaRivers They reference to the yin and yang a lot and say that ravva and vattu are the living form of yin and yang but it isn’t very clear to see👍

can we all agree wan's story was a high point of legend of Korra?
Yup
It was the only high point of that shit show
Meh I would not say that
Didn't expect to see a cole pfp here
Nope, it retconned the entire idea of bending and the Avatar so it could chase as much fanficcy bulshit as possible
I feel like most of the comments are about how pissed everyone is at the Avatar's past lives being completely deleted. I've never seen a fandom so universally angry about something and I haven't even watched LOK fully.
True,they are,but they are completely right.
Same goes here
How could they do that?
They had no right, were they out of what to write or film?
I can't even...
@@Fay.th_ They had all the right,but had no idea what to do with it,its like they thought:
"Hey Korra's connection with her past is shit anyway so why not erase it?"
Yea I’m passionate about atla but it’s not that serious
Who agrees that they need to have a series called Avater: The Cycle Begins or something like that cause seriously after watching this I think they need a series based of Wan alone.
I don't think a series on him would be needed because his life was well summarized but a prequel on avatar after him of few avatars after him that have seen the birth of individual nations would be very cool. Plus because only few avatars back there was Wan he might be a frequent spirit like Roku was for Aang.
I AGREE. I could care less if we were given a summary of his life. Going deeper into who he was, what he thought, what he felt, what he struggled with, what he achieved, what his bonds were like, etc. ALL OF THAT WOULD BE AWESOME TO SEE IN A SERIES. Expanding on what was said in the summary of his life we were given would be such an great thing to see. I’m just fascinated with how Wan just did his best for something he truly believed was the best option. Years later it’s seen it really didn’t help, but nonetheless seeing him grow and mature with Raava is a series I would definitely be willing to watch.
I'd say a movie. In the same style as korra or ATLA and not the live action bs movie
Ordinary kek I think you have
No, make a Serious where one episode is one Avatar. Maybe sometimes 2 or 3 Episodes for each one. Would be so interesting. The Avatars should all tell there own story.
even if the avatar cycle wasn't broken i feel bad for the earth bender who has to talk to Korra for advice.
Well by the time she’s died, she would’ve prolly been far more of a wiser person.
Jonny The Prick that would be bad storytelling. Having her become a better character off screen is just lazy

When the writers decided to sever all the Avatar’s past lives and make Korra the new beginning of a new avatar cycle, that’s when they severely fucked up.
they severely fucked up when korra is a fucking child, and goes stomping in her ice hut firebending, earthbending, and waterbending at like 5 years fucking old, ala episode fucking 1.
@@VonDelacroix its not canon. not the original writers. LOK is a social politic pushing agenda propaganda. just like they did to star wars. erase the history and make the main character a women with unlimited power with zero training. They're also lgbqtkdjas alphabet .
Richmond Phan damn 😭😭😭😭
VonDelacroix the main reason why Korra was arrogant and boasted her skills from a young age is because (I think) each Avatar is gifted in areas the previous Avatar either lacked or saw as their regret. For example, Avatar Roku had deep bonds with those around him and cherished individuals deeply. This was his downfall though when he failed to bring down his childhood friend which could’ve made him regret being the avatar at all. His next life, Aang, runs away from the responsibility of being Avatar all together which encapsulates Roku’s regret at his end (That portion was explained to me and I hope it made sense lol) Within Aang’s life we see him be connected to his spiritual side more so than anything else. He was also trained very well in air bending because he wanted to live as a normal air nomad and live the rest of his life normally with his people. After Aang comes the next Avatar, Korra, and she is born without these two things. She is definitely not connected to her spiritual side and cannot seem to master air bending at all. She also does what Aang’s biggest regret was in his life. Korra runs headfirst into training to be the Avatar and takes pride in it. She doesn’t shy away form it like Aang did, but embraces it and becomes cocky. When Aang left the air nomads, the extinction of his people came along with that decision and therefore a lasting scar was etched onto his heart forever. So, instead of running away, Korra goes in with full confidence she will achieve great things because she’s good at three elements out of four. I’m not sure if Aang lowkey resented spending so much time trying to be a normal air nomad or if being good at air bending ever brought him mementoes of sorrow over what happened to his people. I do, however, think that Korra is a reflection of what Aang couldn’t be. Aang was definitely not arrogant from what I’ve seen. He was a kid who had to grow up to save people. His previous life as Roku gave him the ability to form deep relationships with those around him (I think) and this is why he’s able to affect those around him, but also be affected by those same people as well. He had to learn different elements quickly and struggled internally with himself and his morals for he didn’t want to kill anyone. I sometimes see parts of Aang in Korra when she hesitates to do things you’d expect her to do. Moments where she backs down, stays quiet, or reflects inwardly are all things I see Aang in. Anyways sorry this is long but I just felt like sharing this as it gives us a new perspective of how to see Korra’s character! (Also it’s super late for me and I should be sleeping so I’m sorry for any typos)
I have a question though. Korra lost her connection to her past lives, but happens to their spirits? Are they gone forever? What happened to Aangs spirit?
I believe that it is very fitting that Wan’s first element was fire. He definitely had a fire personality, he was cocky and arrogant, but as you mentioned, his selflessness was his redeeming quality.
The reason he’s isn’t like a classic avatar is as he was the first and didn’t know what he meant to be
finally comment that i was looking for
Yep
@@iamsolovely Scroll to the top comment. It talks about the first Avatar starting it for everyone, not being the best but they first who deserves respect
@@princessazulaofthefirenati5870 uhm okey dude?
He was the first and the only avatar.
i’m just gunna pretend i didn’t just hear u say the avatar cycle was broken
Same, I'll just make it in my head that the cycle continued and all of the past avatars legacy was there.
I didn't watch korra because it was shit, and I watch this awesome origin story to further find that korra is shit.
I'm just watching the series again. Is it clearly said that the circle is back on track? Korra said she is the last avatar. Or should the fact she re-fused with Raava be enough to make clear that the circle is back again? I mean the avatars bevor her are definitely gone.
Korra has to find a way to get the past avatars to her and ravaa cause if not I’m saying goodbye to ATLA (I knew LOK was shit) so I never watched it but seriously her choice was stupid and she’s the avatar how the hell did she not defeat him is he or she stronger or something cause if not she could’ve Im just so pissed how korra can make that mistake now the new avatars if they’re gonna be some since she like ended it smh have to find them instead of mediate which is better honestly imma pretend korra never existed and think aang is still the avatar cause in my opinion he was the best out of all korra never heard of her
Karen Orellana she didn’t choose. She lost because Vatuu had more influence on the world than Ravaa. Which meant Vatuu was more powerful. If she didn’t fight the past loves would’ve been lost regardless. Vatuu fused with the antagonist and ravaa fused with korra and Vatuu was too powerful. But despite this she powered on and won at the end of the day. But she lost the connections of her past lives. No other avatar after her will be able to contact their past lives. What happened on harmonic convergence brought back many air benders which aang wanted the most, and it rebuilt the air nomads. And Korra is attempting to make up for what happened by writing about every single avatar that was lost she can do the next avatar can have access to the books be able to get advice. She trusted someone who was family and it cost her and others a lot. she developed issues with trust afterwards. But in the end overcame it, trying to be the symbol of peace she is supposed to be.
Wan reminds me of Aladdin. I know that seems odd but he is cocky, clever, fast, a thief but very selfless in the end.
Jason Durham me to
That kinda sounds like Eugene/Flynn aswell
Ironic because avatar jafaar exists
I agree
I thought the same thing! Especially when he talked about him going through all that for a small piece of bread, my brain instantly went “one jump, ahead-“
It’s kind of ironic how the first avatar was on the fire nation lionturtle, then the royal family of the fire nation many, many generations later, tried hunting the avatar.
Even funnier when u realise that the avatar before Avatar: the Last Airbender was from the fire nation ( I am bad with names and I forgot his name)
whats funnier and ironic is every avatar is basically wan. Because every avatar is basically his soul just in a different mind and body.

iimonday x actually the next avatar wont have a pass life to talk to at all but korra made a book to help the next avatar even korra wont be the past life
Regarding how Wan is almost the opposite of what an avatar is expected to be, I think it's very similar to the difference between conquerors and kings. Someone who is good at forming nations or defining positions is not necessarily good at sustaining them. It took very un-avatar like qualities to acquire the power of the four elements, but when someone inherits that power they have a different responsibility to not let it go to their head -- especially since they did nothing to earn it in the first place. Humility has little place in the acquisition of power, but goes far in the handling of it.
That is probably the greatest thing I've ever read in a RUclips comments section. Hit the nail on the head. It probably took many, many tries in order to get the humble, level headed, wise Avatar we now have. I wish the series would dive deep into these other characters. There's so much lore we haven't uncovered.
This comment changed my life for the better no cap

But that's exactly it! I thought the same thing, Wan and Korra reflect one another in personalities, especially in the Avatar cycle. It's funny, Wan started the whole new cycle of what came to be "The Avatar." After Korra lost 10,000 years worth of Avatar History from the battle with Vaatu, she found the light within to diminish Vaatu. Hence, starting a whole new cycle of Avatars, just like Wan did.

HIDDEN PRODIGY You’re extremely dumb
@@nareshkumarmajji8697 No, All the Avatars are just Wan's soul in different lifetimes
There are plenty of evidences in both series
1. Raava said "We" will be together through all of "your" lifetimes, before he died
2. When Korra saw Aang, he said you finally connect to your "spiritual self"
3. Lin told Tenzin I can't believe your gentle spirited father reincarnate into that girl
4. When Korra met Iroh in spirit world, Iroh said to Korra This teapot was yours, "when you were Avatar Wan"
5. Toph called Korra "twinkle toes" when they first met
The past avatars are memories reserved in Raava, not souls
So when Raava was destroyed, Korra's connect to her past lives was severed
Because those memories died with Raava
I don't know why some people still get confused about Avatar cycle
Maybe gender is the issue
Reincarnation means you could be anyone in your next life, including being different gender
I nearly gave up watching The Legend of Korra until they introduced Wan. He was imperfect yet fun to watch and root for, unlike Korra and her constant selfishness.
And then they killed wan and all the other avatars and were left with no one but Korra

This is a really interesting take, considering those almost translate to the elements. Earth builds, air balances, fire destroys. I feel like the arc of the next avatar (if we ever see it) could reflect the qualities of water. Heals?

I mean Korra learned a lot through the series. Both in terms of diplomacy and skill.
@@heisenburger8163 Korra did bring balance to the world though. She brought back the airbenders, stopped a tyrant who had conquered the earth kingdom, and opened up the spirit worlds allowing for humans and spirits to live together once again.
well, according to Roku, the avatar state is a very vulnerable state. one unfortunate event means the end for the cycle. so, it wasn't really impossible to sever the connection. Aang (Azula to be exact) almost ended the avatar cycle. if Katara was even a second late healing Aang with her spiritual water, the avatar cycle would've broken right then and there. so if Azula was allowed to almost destroy the entire foundation of the avatar state and she was praised for it by some fans, why is Vaatu (and Korra) getting flamed when it was explained in ATLA the cons of the avatar state.

It’s not broken just lost...
Hopefully the earth bender avatar regains the past lives
@@NikeWavy apparently in the books its says the next avatars have no connection at all not even to Korra I guess just read that somewhere in the comments. i hate when writers ruin perfectly good stories
@@peppermint01kmm Okay that's just dumb
The One Who Started It, Wan.
The One Who Ended It, Korra.
The One Who Protected It, Aang.

I hate that the cycle got restarted
@@john-nz5pv why did it restarted btw? i haven't watched ANY episode from LOK can y'all explain? im interested !!
imgayforjennie Vattu, the dark spirit, took over Korra’s uncle’s body, and took Ravaa, the light spirit, out of Korra’s body and over the timeframe of a few seconds, completely wiping out Korra’s connection to all the past avatars. however, i’m sure that this was just Korra’s connection to them, not her successors. the next avatar should be able to contact all the past avatars
@@shaylizzles OH OK THANKS FOR TELLING ME !! SO TECHINCALLY KORRA WILL BE CONSIDERED THE FIRST AVATAR IN THE AVATAR CYCLE?
Wait Korra is is like wan cocky and not humble at all so this might mean every 10,000 years the avatar might reset
Kebx Flen wan was a fire bender. Korra is a water bender.
Yes your right, Harmonic Convergence was predestined as it happened 10000 years before so it’s destined to happen again.
Nigel Cheung what if there are two cycles? The avatar cycle and the avatar restart cycle. (Just a theory)
@@Nillioh ... And? That's what happens when you divide 10k years among 4 elements :/
H E E H E E oh ur right my bad
This story line was actually one the best parts in Avatar Korra
funny how the best part in Legend of Korra was Not about Korra.....
I really dislike Legend of Korra if you couldn’t tell
yeah, Wan story was really good; the only flaw was that it should have happened many thousand of years ago, not just a few ( in "Legend of Aang" we see thousands of Avatar's statues" so, unless all of them lived less than 10 years, Wan Story should have happened many thousands of years ago).
The Twelfth Doctor Mm never thought of that
you’re right, but it doesn’t really bother me that much
ok edge lord
@@thetwelfthdoctor9892 i think you underestimate how long humans live, we dont live as long as timelords you know
Agreed I hate Legend Of Korra
The fact that His story is more interesting than koras ndjcjsjcw
Sam without korra we wouldn’t have this
Sam you dumb fuck hahaha
What
ej Rblox did I stutter?
Legend of korra is fucking shit and the only people who like it are new bandwagon avatar the last air bender fans.
Never gonna forgive them for getting rid of Aang and the past avatars
They rarely talk to their past lives so they thought it was good idea to get rid of the past reincarnations.
Hopefully the creators denounces Korra, and makes a better avatar.
Blue Green
Why would they denounce Korra?
She is a perfectly fine Avatar.
And how the fuck would they ‘denounce’ her?
TLOK is based around her, to denounce her is to denounce the show which is absolutely stupid.
Just be glad that we are getting more seasons of ATLA, and that the next Avatar in the cycle would be an Earth bender which is gonna be awesome.
@@freddykrueger8076 good point. Hopefully, they trash TLOK and replace it with something better
@@freddykrueger8076
Because her whole identity and entitlement was based on being the avatar and she barely had character development.
So it's no wonder that people don't like her as a protagonist.
wan has a trait that many villains have
the boulder feels conflicted
No he doesn't
Which trait
Lol
Every time when an avatar dies: “Alright past lives move on another row for the new dead avatar to help the new avatar.”
The way they destroyed the past connections remind me of a quote I heard somewhere.
The Father builds
The Son continues
The Grandson destroys
In the case the Avatar, Wan built the foundation, Aang continued bringing balance, Korra destroyed the balance when the connections were destroyed.
And I’m still furious.
Korra didn’t destroy the past avatars. It was Unalaq and Vaatu, you know, the villains? I really don’t get this weird thing with the fan base acting like Korra went out of her way to break the connection to the past avatars. She was defeated by the villain, outside of killing the main character which would just not happen, Vaatu “killing” past avatars shows how powerful he is and his level of threat. Korra also loses something real and valuable. It’s called stakes. You are supposed to be furious, at the villain, and therefore hope the villain is defeated.
@@flameheadshero Let's all not forget that while Korra had her connection the past avatars severed, Aang ALMOST got the entire Avatar Cycle destroyed because he decided to use the Avatar State in an area where Azula can zap him casually. The only reason another Avatar could exist is because Katara had the spirit water.
Valentin Espinosa I soooooooooooooo agree with u
flameheadshero she did lose but eventually killed him tho
flameheadshero korra did fuck it up ..you want me to tell you how...she lost
This background music is so satisfying.
nameo f it?
@@dsangel4135 I think it's Harry potter music to be honest. Sounds like it. The vocalizing sounds like the vocalizing in the HP films.
I’m still pissed that the connection to avatars passed lives were severed
I love that Avatar hasn’t been on tv in YEARS AND IT REMAINS ICONIC!
we have avatar on tv in our country a lot for years now xd
Tututu tututu I’m sure if can be found here... But fans know it’s top tier lol
In my country it's still on tv
Craftgames it was released again on May 15/16 2020 lucky yeee

nah bitch you built fro

I’m built different!
I wish they'd make a series showing all past avatars
Kingkilla 777 id watch it even if they made a 100 seasons out of it
M M yes
🤨
Season 2 doesn't exist for me. Getting rid of the past avatars is just- a no no. I'm fine with the rest of the series tho
yeah same, the first season is really good tho
NOOOOOOOOO, to your opinion.
@@garfieldfan420 i thought the 1920s aesthetic was cool but not for avatar. part of atla's charm was its eastern/asian aesthetic and characters despite being american and they just made it be set in new york essentially
@@owenf2835 yeah but the plot is good, and they don't need up the series
@@garfieldfan420 ?
*DJ khaled: Another Wan*
I hate you for that, but that's amazing.
I’m just gonna pretend that The Legend of Korra never happened and now I’m gonna think of a much better story of Aang’s predecessor in my head.
same
NO, not sAme LoL
I like that Wan isnt the picture of honor and righteousness. He's flawed, conflicted, and complex. He's not very smart and he's way too cocky for his abilities, but he also does have a lot of compassion and bravery. I think thats what makes him a well written character
WAN is “the villain that does the right things”
SuperSoldier A Tragic hero 😁
like robin hood!
ENTJ
eeeem that is batman bro :P
I don't want to watch Korra.
I just want to pretend all the avitars are still around
No do it it's really good besides in the original the power to talk to your previous life was barley used just in season 1 once and season 3 once but watch it it is good
@@EveryoneElseIsWeirdImNormal but ti was an option, and how do you know they didn't chill and talk with each other off screen lol
@@EveryoneElseIsWeirdImNormal its trash... korra is trash, was a slap in the face of the original series
@@Kelz_vee what are you talking about name 5 things that ruin it
Season 1, 3 and 4 are great, but due to season 2 (and the general production issues it had compared to the original, like how no season leads into the next because no future seasons could be confirmed until after the previous season was completed, or how there were less episodes per season compared to the original) people consider the entire show bad.
Honestly he's exactly what I would expect the first avatar to be if we being real .
Cyberknight Combat exactly lol imagine being the first ever human wit that kinda power? You’d be cocky too
Exactly!! I never thought the first avatar would be this all-knowing, "peace be with you," type of person. Naive and cocky with power is exactly what I thought.
It’s crazy how this show is a kids show, but has so much meaning in every episode, all comics, every second of these shows are connected. Avatar is L E G E N D A R Y
No one knows how I got 1.7 k likes
I don't consider Korra to be apart of the avatar series. I barely liked the first 1 1/2 of the series. Didn't even finish it past Mako's brother engaged to her psycho cousin. So. yeah. I think AtlA to be the only real Avatar series.
Vii X I will never understand this mentality man but to each his own... LOK is part of the lore whether you liked it or not. I love ATLA and LOK and all the lore of this amazing world.
@@matshepherd118 One man's trash (which is what I consider it) is another man's treasure I suppose. I forgive you for your enjoyment of it though.
Vii X 😂😂😂 Get out of here man! I will try to forgive you for bashing it!!! 😂😂😂
Vii X Of course it’s not as good as ATLA and I am no fan of the WOKE vagina power type stuff but nevertheless it is still part of the story. And there were definitely some good story arcs in it.
It seems like there’s an interplay with personality and destiny. The other avatars were born knowing it was their job to keep peace and they had no choice being born as the avatar. So they were born and raised to be humble and take on the weight of the world. Wan, himself, needed that extra cocky attitude to achieve what the other avatars were born into. And he made it his personal goal to protect the world
“Chu’s” sounds a lot like “Jews”, and 2:15 made me do a double take as I was listening to it 😂
For a moment, I actually thought they were called 'jews'
They act like them
@@dylanrobledo8618 Yikes
I needed to come to the comments to know their real name it really sounds like jews..
The Nordic Fox 🤭🤣🤣🤣
“His biggest goal at this point is his story is to steal from the chews and this makes him dishonest” Dude, what was he supposed to do? Let his friends and family starve?
Korra seemed to only be good at bending her sexuality.. and destroying the whole avatar cycle
Lol
🤣🤣🤣LMFAO
LMAO
Spitting straight facts right here
LMAOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I enjoyed this story more than the second season as a whole
I enjoyed this story more than the rest of the series.
I don’t think he’s evil by being dishonest or manipulative. He used those to get stuff to help the less fortunate
He is evil because he killed two of the hunters which venture out to collect food for the city people.
@@aniket8350 food for the rich
Aniket Narvekar facts yo. Wan’s a dirty thieving murderer
@@aniket8350 He didn't kill them. Stop lying. And he was protecting the spirit forest
Its like Robin Hood
I’ve always thought characters like Wan are the ideal of how humans really should be.
Good & Evil are both extremes, and neither are balance, instead being one way or the other.
Meanwhile characters with traits of both are the ideal balance.
It takes being cocky to seek power for oneself, but it takes humility to use that power for others.
Very true, if more sought power like Wan for others while not being corrupted by It or being irrational with the shares, maybe life would be dream.
I'm still mad at Korra for breaking the avatar lineage 😂😂😅😅 such beautiful inheritance broken by the avatar herself.
BTW, I remember that beautiful flashback, I loved how it looked in the series, and it was a fresh moment at the series, which was a bit repetitive
Holtonciopy I will kill korra for doing that..
@@sksolar_ you don't exist no more so you can't 😂😂
Korra did not break the connection to the Past Avatars that was Unalaq. You guys act like Korra her self just decided to rip Raava out of her own body and destroy her..
Except, it wasn't Korra's fault.
@@bessieburnet9816 Yeah it was for being incompetent
What's funny is that Korra was just like wan in so many ways she was arrogant, cocky and had no problem pushing the limits of her power eventually she changed everything just like wan did so it would make sense maybe if she would like be the new Avatar in a new cycle
@@vetarlittorf1807 everything about korra is arrogance. she learned her lesson only in book 4. but up to book 3, she was pretty cocky.
@@vetarlittorf1807 but there is also a silver lining between confidence and cockiness. and we all know that korra is on the latter side. there is nothing to be mad about that, korra was a child on the first 3 books and after 2yrs, her mentality got matured and learned the things she should.
Waleed Mohamad thank you for having a brain
@@gracekim25 much luv man ❤❤
@Eric Hawkins which is not necessarly a bad thing in his case :)
interesting how Korra and Wan are almost the same and the writers decided to restart the cycle with her. I wish they would have kept the cycle and had Aang talk to her more during the show but that's just my opinion
Also fun fact the Teapot Wan used to carry Rava in was later used by Iroh when he got into the Spirit World.
I don’t care wan is still the first avatar
Avatars until now: solved the problems or corrected the mistakes that previous avatars made.
Korra: created problem by herself and then lost rava .
Korra character is made only for the continuation of avatar series.
And yet..here we are...without a continuation
@@a4charger834 well, LOK was made 7 years after ATLA. Be a bit more patient. Plus, the creators have other projects, like comics, and the live action series and the book about the rise of Kyoshi that's gonna be released soon.
Lol what? Korra didn't create a problem. Unilaaq nearly destroyed all of humanity let alone just Rava. And Korra's decision to keep open the spirit portal literally saved Airbenders from extinction.
Oh you mean like how Aang ran away leading to the destruction of his culture?
@@AjorDredd Korra created the problem by trusting Unalaq blindly, when every other person that knew him, disliked him.
I'll just pretend that TLOK doesn't exist.
AgrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEED
There is no TLOK or Live action in the city.
Lol
There's no Korra in Ba Sing Se.
The MacSo what show?
for those who thought it was bad that the avatar cycle was reset, remember that Uncle Iroh said to never judge each other, and to forgive people's mistakes.
It took me awhile to get over korra know-it-allness that bought about the severing of the avatar line...how great...the next avatar after her only can call on her for guidance...lovely
Kinda wanna make a fanfic where the next Avatar summons Kora and things get awkward
Avatar: " So your telling me.... You can't help me... At all? "
Korra: " Ugh.... Sorry "
Avatar: " How did you get so far? "
Korra: " Well.... "
Unlike Aang, Korra doesn't need her past lives to help him do everything
Kram Setnom She didn’t do anything, but she did ruin everything.
Well she grew into a pretty good and understanding person by s4. She had to be teared down to grow as a person. She has enough experience for guidance. And its usually the Avatar before the new Avatar job for guidance anyways
@@anoldtimer How edgy of you. As if anything she did affected what the og cast did. Overdramatic atla tards are the worst
Fun Fact: Wan was voiced by Steven Yuen who played Glenn Rhee in The Walking Dead.
Where are wan episodes at
@@youniggasgoofys4840 The Legend of Korra, episode 19 and episode 20.
Wan:Korra,I'm the first avatar my name is wan
Korra:Are you the wan and only
Wan:Stop
Korra:Are you gonna teach me the spirit stuff ya know wan on wan
Wan:Please stop
Korra:How did you know you were the wan
Wan:I'm leaving
I see what you did there
🤣🤣🤣
LOL
So that’s how they all died..... they all left because she made to many shitty jokes
Korra is at times such a WANnabe :D
I knew there was a reason why I didn't like Korra.
What's your reason? I need you to clarify for me please.
Ethan Rey she severed all the connections to all the past avatars marking her the very first one.
AceMango SHE didn’t sever anything. Unavaatu was the one who destroyed Raava and her connecting to her past lives. She didn’t know that he was gonna go full hentai monster and rip her Avatar spirit out of her face.
Immmm single. And available
literally all the episodes, retconning and dumb shit they added? There are plenty of reasons to hate TLOK. And people only defend it because, I honestly don't know. It suffers from the same branch of problems the prequels to Star Wars did, and everyone called George Lucas out on his shit back then. But not now, we're supposed to accept this backstory to the first avatar, that contradicts almost everything we know from the Last Airbender.
Now we need a new series with a earth bender as the main character.
Someone made a fan comic about it and it's apparently really good but idk what it's called
LightKight it doesn’t seem to hard to make me I write and I feel like I could but I’d have to watch Legend of korra
Ren Tran not unless the creators do it the story correctly like they did in ATLA
I loved this scene during the legend of korra it’s a shame she lost her connections
How do we know it's permanent? Anything can happen right?
Maybe the next avatar after Korra could be able to connect with the other avatars after wan
@@vetarlittorf1807 ok it's a story bud it's very possible lmao spirit bullshit bam there back not so impossible
If there can fine a loop hole in the story
It shouldn't never happened in my opinion.
One my favorite character's, i just like how the show broke it down and his backstory, love the redemption.
Hey man I love your Avatar videos and especially these “Life of” videos. Thank you so much for this. It really does mean a lot to me.
Nah, I disagree that he is dishonest, i think he is just a cunning and generous villain who turned good.
John Lee he is, every avatar is balanced between bad and good at the start of their lives and whether they choose to be better or worse is up to their choices.
Who said Avatar the Last Airbender sucks? No Wan ever!
Nice joke
Korra does though.
