I was honestly so impressed with how bold this finale was. I really loved how epic it all felt for the midpoint of a tv show. I wasn't sure about this season but the last few episodes really solidified this season as a worthy watch. Enjoy ;)

Air is the element of freedom and water is the element of change. Aang ends the war and brings back freedom while Korra creates a new world order and brings change throughout her life.
earth is the element of persistance, has no idea what he will gonna do, maybe stabilize the relationship between spirits and humans in their new shared place. In any case the fire avatar is gonna destroy a corrupted decadent civilisation tu purify the world from its pollution 😆
@@avatarlhamo3063According to the words of Uncle Iroh in ATLA, Book 2: Earth, Chapter 9: Bitter Work, "Fire is the element of power...Earth is the element of substance...Air is the element of freedom...Water is the element of change..."
Wow Desna... I never knew you cared so much about... well, anything.
...besides Eska of course.😐
Who else noticed that in the Hall of Avatars in air temple there was room for two more statues in the spiral after Roku, one for Aang and one for Korra. Seems monks knew one cycle will end and new start over
@@Voltornator I mean no one had to fight the pure evil during convergence since Wan. And the fight was anything but fair.
Yes, and the fact they took the time to show us that part, it was meaning something important.
I think it's more likely they just move the statues around with each avatar. They have decades to make the changes for each of them after all
@@scaredscorpionno I agree that it was for shadowing that the cycle had to come to an end and be renewed, so it was predestined
I always get super emotional when Tenzin feels like he failed his father because so many people can relate by going through their lives trying to please or be who their parents want them to be
I also really love how they demonstrated that you’re never too old to learn life lessons. People can go their entire lifetime without actually growing. A lot of people refuse to do a little introspection or confront their feelings at all.
I think the idea behind the light and dark spirits is that they *can't* kill each other. They're yin and yang, just like the moon and ocean spirits. A piece of light lives in the dark spirit and a piece of dark lives inside the light spirit.
31:40 Light can’t exist without dark, and vice versa. Korra remembered this, which was why she was trying to sense Raava in UnaVaatu. She hadn’t been able to find her yet, and UnaVaatu tried to say she was looking for something that was gone. Jinora was better attuned to spiritual energy, and helped GUIDE Korra to Raava. Jinora didn’t bring Raava back to life.
I always assumed Jinora used some of her own light spiritual energy to provide just a spark to revive Raava quicker than she normally would have emerged. But I like your theory that she helped illuminate where Raava already was
Thanks goodness he understood what the shows gave him. I’m constantly baffled and charmed by your high comprehension of things, your empathetic and patient open mind. You have no idea the number of people stuck in their conception of ATLA who still didn’t move on from their bitterness over this writing decision they still don’t understand.
Oh my god you are so right. Why can't they just let go of the fact that things do need to change?
Honestly, one of the few reactors who actually understood this season. There were genuine mistakes in writing and animation, and there are a couple of minor details I'm still not thrilled with, but in terms of the themes of this season, you nailed it.
That said, the next couple of seasons are some of my favorite Avatar-verse content. So excited!
I agree. The more I’ve rewatched this season and watched reactors view it I’ve come to appreciate it so much more. There is so much to love, with Varrick and Zhu Li introduced, the growth of Korra and Tenzin individually and in their relationship, and the story of Wan. I used to think the kaiju element at the end was a bit silly, but the way it perfectly ties into Korra learning who she is apart from being the Avatar really works
it makes me so so happy to see a reactor just GET the severing of the past lives. so many people hate the choice and then write off the entire show which is very frustrating. but it makes so much sense and i think it works very well for the story. so i’m glad to see a reactor also appreciate that writing choice!
I never minded it and i don't want Korra to reconnect with them like so many people do, but i still think it could've been handled better. It works thematically, but not so much narratively. Nothing really changed as Korra wasn't communicating with them before. She didn't lose anything.
Its also not necessarily irreversible like a lot of people assume, if for the next series they decided they wanted to restore that connection, they absolutely could. (Id hope they dont do it off screen though)
It makes sense.. Still the dumbest story choice.
She can bend 4 elements; has the knowledge, experience, and power of a thousand or so generations of Avatars; has mastered all the elements. Proceeds to get bodies by her uncle and Vaatu who can only use one element.
This season is what tanked the series when it first aired.
@@travisgames6608 How does this make no sense? Four elements doesn't make her four times more powerful than anyone with one, Vaatu evened their power level, and avatars of the past have no overpowered techniques that could've helped her defeat Unalaq.
Exactly!!! I was so glad he got the power imbalance of Ravva when she fused with wan and vattu when he was locked up and was freed during korra's time 👏👏
My theory is, that the growing darkness and negativity surely did add to this size that Unavaatu took on, but the reason why he took on that shape is likely, that because Unalaq wasn't really in much control after all, surely Vaatu wouldn't want to be second in command inside someone else's body. Whereas Raava stayed passiv in the body she merged with, she didn't take over, she respected her host and lent the avatar her power.
Good theory id say.
It's sad that people blame korra for the connection getting destroyed when it was Unalaaq who severed it
14:35 The cute little spirit mushroom here is voiced by Azula's voice actor.
And also the spider spirit.
@@robo1997 Oh really? Never knew that part.
I didn’t know that! I laugh so hard at the mushroom every time that “ yes I am “ is the best line .
@@nshippudennaruto2814 She shows up in quite a few small roles in Korra, and one big one that you probably did notice.
@@ZeallustImmortal she was water arm …..character right?
Not you calling Vatu an 'evil kite' 🤣that killed meeee ahahahaa
My understanding is that the fog only went away for Tenzin, not anyone else. Because Tenzin beat his personal demon.
People in the avatar universe live longer than people in our universe. It's not unusual for people to live over 100 years in the Avatar world. Aang was one of the shorter lived Avatars. According to the comics, his time in the ice berg sapped his long-term health.
Can't wait for season 3, that's when Legend of Korra is at its best.
Jinora held ravas light that she captured in episode 2. And gave it back when needed.
Exactly like how princess yuh held life from the moon spirit and gave it back when needed.
Also. Welcome to season 3. The darkest, most violent, terrifying, and outright graphic season in all of the avatar universe
I love that you understand the events and why they happened, why the creators decided to do this. One of the most amazing reactors EVER! Love you
My favourite part of this reaction was the reaction to Korra losing her past lives. Just all the random noises made me laugh out loud😂
BTW, I think Jinora didn't bring Raava back, but just helped Korra found her, because as Raava said, Vaatu can't fully destroy her, so she would always be inside of him, Korra just couldn't find her
Losing the past lives isn’t necessarily bad. She may not have a connection to the avatars but I believe that their spirits still are around in the spirit world or something like that. And as for the losing of the past lives, it basically creates generation 2. It will more than likely be that way until the next convergence but who knows
Yh as ppl forget that the past avatar give wisdom and knowledge but a lot of ppl thing they give u strength, and power which in a ways they do but not so literal , also aang ignored his past lives on multiple occasions and even fell out with Roku in the comics and cut of his connection to him
A lot of people hated on this ending but man, that music is so fucking good
YESSS! Honestly, it might be a hot take but I prefer LOK's music over ATLA. It just makes me feel so emotional. Especially the "Jinora's Light" track.
Many people say that she brought Raava back to life, I see it as she showed Korra where she was.
Jinora got the tea pot where raava traveled with wan, she left tenzen to search iroh to ask him, the image is so bright that its just not able to see it, thats why iroh appears looking for a new tea pot later
@@derickbarros2657 I didn't know that 😲😱
Look, when the connection to the past lives occurred, I was deeply impacted - especially as it finally really hit home that we aren’t likely to see Aang again. Once I reached the end of the finale, it was an interesting feeling (incredible work by the writers) of the start of something new - like the way I felt when I first started watching ATLA on TV as a kid. Water is about change, so this is Korra’s era.
Oh it definitely upset me, too. I wanted to see Aang have a relationship with Korra like Roku. I understand people being upset. The people who completely write off the rest of the show and Korra’s story are just being unreasonable. I really loved that Iroh stepped into the role Aang would have played. It was a trade off but a welcome one.
I hated losing the connection to past lives when this first aired, but looking at how it helps Korra's growth has made me like it a lot more.
Amazing reaction! People don't usually get the writers choice for the ending of s2 w the past lives but I've always loved it bc it's devastating and nobody could have predicted it, it brings smt darker to the show that not everything always works out, that sometimes life takes a turn for the worse and it's sad but it doesn't mean it's end, just a new beginning🥰
Also so surprised you actuallythink Korra and Mako could work together as bf/gf i've never seen or heard any youtuber say that haha i think there is a consensus that they were both too emotionally immature since they're only 18/19yo, but almost everyone usually sees Mako and Korra as bad in a relationship mostly bc their personnalities don't match for a romantic relationship since they're both so hot-headed and stubborn, there's no balance between them, not one of them can balance the other out which is what you need in a realtionship you need to have similarities sure but you need to have enough differences to complement each other to balance out their flaws, which is smt that Korra and Mako def do not have haha too fiery both of them lol and as we've learned from our avatars - balance is key, without it things turn into chaos.
that's why the 2nd season is my favorite, it's a fantastic season.
41:50 Why do so many people dislike this season? I don't understand that, am I the only one who thinks it's the best season of the show?
Season 3 is my all time favorite season including both shows. The characters that are introduced and the way that they tweak the rules of the universe are so much fun and make you feel like you're back in Season One of Avatar where anything can happen
One thing that a lot of people don't realize is that the only reason why the Avatar can bend all the elements is because that they have Rava inside them. Without Rava they can only bend the element that they were naturally born with, for Korra that would be water bending. BTW Jinora didn't bring Rava back to life it was said in the beginnings episode part 2 and also in this one that neither Rava nor Vatu can truly be destroyed.
They did the thing!
People talk alot of trash, thinking that the writers made Aang out to be a notable father. Let me set the record straight.
Aang, first and foremost. Was HUMAN. He had his faults, just like every avatar before him. He had to balance a wife, children, avatar duties, and healing the world after the 100 year war ended.
All he wanted for his children was to find their own place in the world. To make theor own stories and legacy, and to do it despite their father's shadow over them
Kia took after Kataras ability to waterbend, and has her father's passion, love, wisdom.
Bumi was an esteemed and accomplished military officer.
Aangs words to tenzin are the most heartfelt and sincere words. "You are not me, and you should not be me. You are Tenzin". Tenzin realized then and there who he is, was, and will be, with his father's guidance.
And they all grew up well. They are strong, wise, loving, empathetic, and successful. Thanks to Aangs time as their father, as well as katara
I actually like this season. I rank it 3-4-2-1
I LOVE your understanding and acceptance of Korra being disconnected from the other Avatars! Especially because she marks the beginning of a new era that the old Avatars might not necessarily understand how to navigate either. And it's so true that she doesn't need their wisdom alone, she has her family and friends around her, and the memories of the other Avatars are still given tribute throughout the world she lives in.
Season three is the best
Based 👍
Agreed 😁
It’s peak avatar-/ the best of the best!!!
Next time it will be time for my favorite season of the series. 😊❤️🔥
WHAT HAPPENED TO KIA????? 😢😢😕😕
They're trapped in a fog that keeps you in your darkest moment. Listen to what she said: "Who are you???!?? No! You can't tie me down like this!!!"
What happened in her darkest moment?
32:05 Exatly, one can't live without the other, meaning Vatuu will be back, in 10000 years. A future Avatar will become so naturally evil, he/she will "birth" Vatuu, from within Ravaa.
That would be interesting to watch.
Either that or a dark avatar reincarnated into the next element but only has access to that one element. I think that would be cool
@@skith8432 Probably water, like korra, but after a decade of training, still have no access to the other elements, which made him/her go mad, until Vatuu comes out.
@@jrcervincervin2782 logic would dictate that it would always be water because unalaq was a water bender and didint have control of the other elements. But I think you could argue that it would follow the cycle similar to the avatar. So next would be earth.
@@skith8432 Yes, next would be earth, but this can't happen in the next cycle, cause it has to happen in the next 10000 years, by then maybe it might be water.
Something magical would have to happen in the next cycle (like Ginora coming in from above) to make Vatuu come back infrom the avatar. Someone as spiritual as Ginora could make Vatuu come back, but that person would have to be evil.
@@jrcervincervin2782 it's a reincarnation cycle and vatuu was defeated. He was also fully bonded to unalaq just as ravaa is to the avatar. If he was defeated it could be argued they would then reincarnate into someone new
I love your reaction to Legend of Korra every seasons are amazing,important.
11:32 "The Evil Kite" HAHAHAHA! 😂
Other than the severing of the past lives, a common issue people have with this season is the power scaling. Particularly in the final kaigu fight in the harbour. Spirit beam chest blasts and guant self projection are things we have not seen before and we get no real sense of scale.
In one moment their chest beams are equal, then korra easily overpowers unalok-vatu and sub dues him, then moments later unalok-vatu easily over powers korra.
When aang merged with the ocean spirit, that kaigu could only water bend, no spirit beams. But now korra when stripped of rava, can project herself as a kaigu AND shoot energy beams???
What Aang said to Tenzin, that he is not him and shouldn't be him, can be applyed also on the series. On Aangs and on Korras. They were never meant to be the same
What Ginora did was she showed Rava’s light to Korra to help her free her, and also I agree with “ that wasn’t a a fair fight” because I think any other avatar wouldn’t know how to deal with this situation cuz it’s the first time this ever happened so ether they were guiding Korra through the avatar state, they wouldn’t know what Vatu/ Unalaq next move would be.
"The evil kite has escaped" got me bad I laughed out loud like a maniac
19:01 UnaVaatu can still only bend water in this fight. It took Korra years to learn to bend ALL the elements.
I liked this finale all the way up until the kaiju fight.
Nobody brought Raava back to life btw, that was just the natural balance between them doin its thing. Raava explained that if she managed to kill vaatu that vaatu would quite literally come back inside of her.
I always felt the size difference was also because Vaatu was in control of Unalaq, there was no true partnership. Vaatu wouldn’t shrink to fit into the world he was about to destroy - being human-sized is for the comfort of the majority of sentient beings.
I'm glad you still enjoyed the season, even if it wasn't the best. Looking forward to more reactions! 💙
Basically, kaiju unavaatu was just vaatu take control of unalaq.
You should watch some iconic animes! Like, "Your name", "A silent voice," etc!!!!
9:35 no it implies that all his stories were true , he truly is aang's son XD
Well they’re obviously all true but it’s funny that the one time they’re all standing the in aftermath of what he did, he can’t be bothered explaining 😆
Good reaction with an analytic vision of things and not the emotional breakdown than we have usually with Korra's haters who blamed her for "killing Aang". You put things in the right perspective and explained it well(the storytelling, the writters' choices, etc). For me, I've already known you had the right mindset to critize LOK and that next seasons you will be rewarded for sure!
Enjoyed watching this season with you, sooooo looking forward to season 3!!!
Youre about to see the best villain ever in season 3. Can't wait for next reactions!
The evil tape worm vs the not evil tape worm! FIGHT!
😂
I know it was a kind of controversial writing choice, but I appreciate that they did allow Korra to have her connection to the other avatars severed. Not only because it adds some serious consequences to the show and helps to push Korra’s character forward, but also because I think it’s a nice way to wrap up the general storylines of the past avatars. Their stories and characters don’t get dragged on for too long, and in the meta of show, I think being detached from Korra probably allows all the avatars who came before her to finally rest completely as sprits.
I’m sure everyone has been telling u how amazing season 3 is. If u liked season 2, which was looked as one of the weaker seasons, u are about to be blown away with season 3.
In my personal opinion it’s the best avatar season across both shows it’s peak avatar and my fave!! I’ve seen that season 5 times!! So glad u finally made it!
ALRIGHT TIME FOR SEASON THREE LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
With Korra re-Bonding Ravva and losing her connection to the past Avatars she essentially started the cycle over so i like to think of her as the Last Avatar of the First Cycle and the First Avatar of the Second Cycle
I’m gonna be honest, I didn’t like their choice at first, I was very upset. Aang was my favorite character, and I loved how they could talk to the old Avatars. That being said, the show Korra and its world has grown on me a lot of the years, and so has the decision they made. I have grown to understand, and remember that Korra is its own story and world. While season 2 has its issues, the next two seasons make it all worth it.
I honestly enjoyed season 2, but can't wait for season 3, that is the true peak moment of Korra
Season 2 has some of the best imagery and music in the entire franchise.
i also like that it ended like that, BUT! Its sad that no other Avatars will know about the first Avatar, but you know, books and all will probably be made (or is made??) but yeah! i would love if there was another series of the universe, of old avatars or new ones. or even a spin off.
Jinora didn't brought Raava back to life, she just found what's left of her on the spirit world
She found Ravva and accelerated the process for her to reform. They can't kill each other even if they do it temporarily until they reform out of one another.
@@neishawnjohnson7602 indeed
Jinora got the tea pot (that raava traveled with wan) with iroh when she left tenzen, the image is so bright that its not able to see it, thats why on the next season iroh is searching for a new tea pot
Awesome reaction!! I am glad that you enjoyed this season like I did. I am already so excited for you to watch the next season. It’s my personal favorite of the four Korra seasons 😊
I can't wait for seasons 3 and 4! Especially 3! I'm sure you'll love them ♥
best season coming up with no love triangles
Don’t spoil it for him
@@Akira-MonomiOriginal i dont think thats a spoil we saw asami and mako break up and korra and mako too so its logical
Ehhhhh not entirely
@@ZeallustImmortal yes entirely. S3 IS THE BEST PERIOD!
@@modelotimefooooo1853 Still has the love triangle.
I’m happy you’ve enjoyed season 2. But I’m more excited to see how you’ll react to season 3 which is my favorite and the best season of the series. It’s gonna get super serious and intense!! Can’t wait!!😊😁💨🪨🔥🌊⛓️🌄
You know whats next guys. SEASON 3 BABY 🎉🎉🎉
25:22 exactly what I was thinking
I can’t wait until season 3. 1 & 3 are top tier! I wonder how long it will be until he started that season.
So for the longest time I hated season 2 because of the severing the past lives. It took me awhile to actually appreciate how bold of a choice that was and how impressive korra is. Until Unavattu shot her directly with a blast, she was beating him to a pulp all on her own. No elements, no spirit, just her. I don't remember who commented this, but apparently Jinora had Wan's old teapot that carried Raava at one point, so when she showed up she basically sped up the process of Raava coming back!
The Raava/Korra situation was created so the Avatar in future stories will never have a win-button, which is the past lives.
And by Never the creators were not joking.
Thanks for this reaction! So excited for you to see season 3.
Can't wait for you to wastch season 3. Because s3 is AMAZING! it's much better than this season like 1000%
I don't know why but I was laughing so hard today watching you react to the final episodes, thanks man, love your reactions❤
So excited for season three!!! I bet you'll love it too, it's hard to find someone who doesn't like it😊
The next season might be the best one for me, i just love LOK bcs of its risking plots, I like changes and plots that might upset the audience lol
Next season is peak Avatar🔥🔥
personally I love this season! get ready for the next one season 3 is the best!
All these comments about how great season 3 is…lol we are just happy he made it through season 2 now comes the real fun!!!
season 3 is coming!!!!!!!!! I cant wait!!! love this
I have LOVED seeing your reactions to Seasons 1 and 2, can’t wait to see your Season 3 reactions!
There is *supposedly going to be a new Avatar series…and if we get one, what I need from it is the need Avatar finding a way to reconnect with their past lives
For me Mako and korra were never really compatible as a couple. They just had an infatuation for eachother so they started dating, but they clashed more than they actually were on the same page. It makes sense that they realised they're better off not dating
Almost time for season 3 😊 I really liked this season. Never got the hate it gets.
This season is definitely over-hated.
Yeah, ive got a lot of issues with it but ive never understood the levels of hate it gets.
The evil kite has escaped. 😂
After such inspiring events i can't wait to see how her public opinion ratings are in two weeks.
I have to agree with what you said. I don't like the execution on some bits, but I really love where the state of the world, and Korra as a character end up this season. It's not that we hate this season (at least I don't), I just think it's the weakest one in the franchise. You'll see why in the next few weeks
I honestly believe this season has more of the satisfying ending then 3 and 4, but of course the ending of book 3 in the last airbender is still at the top. I do look forward to the season 3 and 4 reactions but it will be different but similar to the last airbender.
Also you’re gonna adore the next seasons! You might even cry!
cant wait for you to get to S3!
Do The Prince of Egypt next.
I love this season.
Bro just said "Bro just became a kaiju"
Uhh finally, cant wait for your reaction on the next episodes! best season!
In all fairness, it was the spirit world, there’s probably spirit water everywhere.
This season is certainly not the best, not bad either. Just not incredible. BUT, if it does anything perfectly, is setting up this next season. So hold onto your pants for this next one. It’s the best without a doubt. Some moments will blow your mind for real 😳
There is something about you i only like watching some reactors and your always my go to.
Wow I’m never this early 🙀
Hi guys 🖖🏽
If you haven’t already finished, you’re going to love the next 2 seasons.
The last Avatar the New Avatar!
well im back at agin soothing my addiction to coa coa couch
Can you react to pride and prejudice please?
