Lin may not be a ray of sunshine at times, but man, she was amazing when she made that final gambit in order to keep Tenzin and his family safe.
Exactly. A person doesn't have to be adorable and sweet to be a good person.
just like how her mother stole the show
"Get away from my dad's ex-girlfriend" - Hands down Jinora's best line
she wanted to protect the legacy of earbending
Lin’s sacrifice never fails to make me emotional. Easily one of the best characters with one of the best arcs. Also, I just love the fact Fire Lord Izumi named her son Iroh. So there's an Iroh and a Mako in the series, I'm glad they did that.
Naga may not be Appa but she did come in so clutch
Nothing can even come close to Appa, but that doesn't mean they should be dismissed either. Naga is her own person, or animal, and should be judged on her own :D
Mustache Guy: BANZAI!
Naga: *smacks him into the abyss*
Korra's friendship with Naga is very cute, especially when you remember she didn't really have human friends growing up (aside from like adults who were her teachers and being rather sisterly with Tenzin's kids who are a lot younger than her.) One official comic shows how she met lost puppy Naga as a kid. She is the only person who has ever managed to tame a polar bear dog.
I may be wrong for this but i swear u were on severeal reaction channles right?
Atleast scoots channels
Rick and morty or mlp reactions ?
@@hungryguy560 MLP
Aang didn't have just one son. Katara on episode one literally said he had more than just Tenzin. Just that Tenzin was the only airbender among them.
General Iroh is Zuko's grandson. Zuko's daughter is the current firelord
You guys watching Korra has been one of the best reactions to the series; your theorizing, your HYPE, and the fact you're not bashing every small detail at every turn, has just been such a fun time. That being said, if you do have criticisms, don't feel like you need to keep them to yourselves to please the audience. This is your watchthrough and you've been kind enough to take us along for the ride. I can't wait to watch the rest of the series with you! If season 1 has blown you away, you're in for an absolute treat as the show progresses.
Korra is one of those shows that suffered from "Everyone on the Internet being a Critic".
Yes, it has its flaws if you look hard enough, but Korra is a good show. And I like Sorta Stupid because they are more open-minded.
Yeah, is just that internet agreed to hate on it and treated like the worst when is not
Dark souls 2 for example, is treated like unplayable levels of trash for DS standars, but the game alone is like an 8
People really love to punch something down even tho is not
I like Korra, the romance and relationships were ass
Altho I like ATLA more than LoK, I like the show as well because it extended to more lore and the story's pretty good. The only thing I didn't like about it is how they handled the romance.
Exactly, and due to how much Nickelodeon kept jerking them around many of the issues are very understandable. Seems to me they did the best they could given their circumstances.
my thoughts exactly, ppl compare it to ATLA too much, on it's own it's a valid show. any of the critcisms about continuity or retcons were addressed by avatar studios by elaborating in the novels about kyoshi and yangchen. it's an amazing show, and while my favorite chars are from ATLA overall LOK I like more due to it being more mature and having deeper political parallels. (socialist, anarchist, fascist, civil war etc) wheras ATLA is more just east asia during ww2
37:58 at the start Katara said there are two other kids of theirs, (however they didn't become airbenders)
need these videos more often i love the korra reactions too much my patience cant handle it 😭
Facts
I wanna see more korra reactions too
Mako gets really unlikable here, after Korra specifically mentioned how Asami will need him he starts flirting with Korra again, and refuses to acknowledge that he’s not being a good partner to Asami. Good on her for only getting mad at Mako and never really turning on Korra, especially since Korra didn’t do the same when she was annoyed about the two being together. She’s too good for this world
30:41 30:41 30:46 30:46
No, he doesnt
He only becomes tolerable in season 3 or so till then it's an insult to the actual late Mako that they named him in his honor
@@SourceOfTheRightArm what when he’s a cop? I don’t like him in season 3 either lmao
When does Mako flirt with her? If I remember correctly she Kisses him knowing he's in a relationship.
Water bending without hand movements makes sense to me for multiple reasons but the biggest one is...the Moon doesn't have arms to bend with either so it's just about getting good enough to emulate the original water bender.
Also King Bumi has proven to be able to bend with only his head. And Combustion Man with only his third eye and breath. Bending without hands or much physical movement has precedent before Legend of Korra, in other words.
The moon has arms. Remember "that's rough, buddy".
@senhowler ah my counter to that is that is the moon spirit not the moon itself. I don't...think?...They're interchangeable
@tendigitnumber 1. Earthbending is entirely different than waterbending.
2. The eye was the source of his special bending. Of course he would only have to use it.
Having finally gotten around to watching season 2 I am now very confused about the whole moon vs giant lion turtle situation.
Mako really tried to date two of the best women in the Korra series and thought it'd work out 😂
That may work in other shows, this wasn't one of them
It makes Season 4 even more hilarious.
@@PopeDuwang’Mako was such a bad boyfriend both his ex’s got together’
@@chainsawboy2388,I do not know if they are looking at the comments but keep it at least in spoiler alert
@@ge_ka_buthey’re almost done with season 4 on their patreon
I loved how we got some context on the OG Avatar characters. Honestly, the episode that featured them is one of my favorites of LOK!
amon is such a threatening, amazing villain.
Most of the hate I've seen comes in Book 2. Personally, I think it is a little weak in terms of story but is still pretty good. Book 3 is SOOOO good and I can't wait for you guys to react to it.
Book 2 has...those episodes...that have to be some of the best Avatar out there, especially with how much is fit in. Season 3 is phenomenal though
Tbh I think book 2 is defiantly the weakest, I mean it tried to touch on a lot and I mean everyone has always wondered about a dark avatar, thats why they've semi retouched on the concept in the novels. I think the civil war should of remained the focus point and having Korra's issue being having to bring balance while separating bias from being from the south herself, which they only partially touched on.
I think book 2 is still a good one. Not as good but far from terrible.
The baby probably was a couple more days out before labor would kick in, however the stress of the situation told her body it is time to do it now because you need to be able to move.
Pretty sure General Iroh is Zuko's grandson, not son. Notice he's closer to Korra's age then to say Tenzin or Lin.
Actually he is in between. He is younger than Tenzin but he is an adult in his 30s, Korra is a teen.
@@lillykawaiifox : well, I did say closer, not the same, but you are correct.
I can tell you EXACTLY what happened! The movie did so poorly, that Nickelodeon didn't have a lot of faith in renewing the series for Korra. Season 1 was supposed to be the only season, but the fans were so excited for the shows return, that Nickelodeon granted a second season HALFWAY through the first, but only gave them half the budget. So season 1 was done when they were told they had the green light, causing the disconnect between the 2. Then the same thing happened in season 2, but this time Nickelodeon just finally gave them the green light for seasons 3 & 4. This is why those 2 seasons feel so strong!
and don't forget the move to online only in the final season
Honestly Nickelodeon jerked this series around so much its a miracle it's as good as it is.
29:02
HA, the fact that he was right about that in a way he probably didn't expect is hilarious to me
Just like to point out, because I'm sure you've already finished the book. We have seen someone fight off blood bending before. It was Katara, against Hama. Only a more powerful blood bender can negate other blood benders.
Or just be the Avatar, since Avatar State is the ultimate "nuh uh" 😂
They on book four already
you@@colt1903 I feel like being the avatar just makes you better bender than others anyway, so the avatar would just be a better waterbender
Love the Reactions and I can’t believe how far ahead you guys are on patreon then RUclips 😂😂😂. I checked it and out and you already on Book four. I’m going to keep showing support on YT
Nickelodeon played fast and loose with their commitment to LoK.
The season-by-season renewals, and then cancellation made planning for the season a challenge but *on top of that,* Nickelodeon abruptly cut the budget for the final season, putting the creators in a bind to deliver the same number of episodes with less money to pay animators, voice actors--the people making the dang show.
Nickelodeon also pushed back against a female protagonist, until the creators sold them on Korra being a very hands-on fighter/brawler. Part of what Nickelodeon was thinking about was toy sales. They assumed no boys (whom they were primarily targeting) would want toys of Korra. It's frustrating.
Oh, and Nickelodeon also went the extra step of moving the show's time slot around. First season went very well in terms of viewer ratings, but then they moved it and ratings suffered. Final season eventually got pushed to online-only because Nickelodeon had basically given up on the show (DUE TO THEIR OWN SCREWING AROUND).
It's why I am excited but also wary of what Avatar Studios can accomplish with this new deal with Nickelodeon because when the bean counters get in the mix, this franchise suffers.
The move to online only was a really dirty move at the time since their website had a really bad player and wasn't available on any legit streaming service. You had to be a super dedicated viewer to watch the final season.
I will never stop loving how haws are dropped as soon as Iroh ll is shown.
"Do you think they are gonna flip"
oh boy do they know how flip they are
you may not remember but in the very first episode Katara said that they had three kids, two sons and a daughter, and she named all three.
The issues in LoK are really pacing. Season one needed another 4 ish episodes and season 2 drags and is a bit... nonsensical. 3 and 4 are both very good in that regard
tbf, that's probably nick's fault rather than the showrunners
@@maloo538 it is. Season 1 was planned at 26 episodes and to be stand alone. Then it got halved. THEN it got a second season.
@@maloo538 Nick kept screwing this show over so badly, making it unclear how many seasons the show was going to have, forcing the creators to put Books 3 and 4 online. It's honestly impressive the show as a whole turned out as good as it did despite these problems
@@ashhabimran239yep and originally the plan was to just do a single season with Korra, then switch to other avatars. Like single season looks into different eras and events in various Avatar's lives but then the executives went. Nah Korra too popular you have to stick with her. Was at a panel with some of the creators and VAs a few years back and they talked about that. So they didn't have really a plan past season 1. And had to work out 2 through 4 all rather last minute never knowing how long they'd be sticking with Korra
2 isn't that bad
If you want to talk about nonsense talk about season 4 and the IRON GIANT+DEATH STAR RAY and SPIRIT ENERGY WINES
season 4 was going so well until they just started making up new technology that 1.makes bending 99% useless and 2 . Is none sense even for a fictional show
I mean it’s great how you guys watch these shows. It really brings you back to a time when people where waiting for every episode a week to come out! Cheers guys Merry Christmas!
Actually general Iroh is Zuko's grandson, not son.
Also: Aang and Katara had 3 kids, she mentioned at the beginning of the show.
But Bumi is not a bender and Kya is a waterbender.
Stop with spoilers!! Deleat this!
@@heinszugzwang Literally none of that is a spoiler lmao. They mention siblings in episode 1 and considering none of them live on Airbender Island, you don't need to be Batman to figure out they're not airbenders.
They really forgot about the confrontation between....
Katara and the original blood bender lady where Katara was able to resist by being the stronger blood bender.
Hama and Katara don’t compare to yakone family
@@AmarZion Okay, but the scene featured two members of that family so why does that matter?
What I do love about team Korra, despite their messy relationships and personal dynamics, is that they are all PROS at what they do. They go from arguing 1 second to merciless beating Equalists the next. Despite their flaws, the dichotomy between their battle prowess and emotional incompetence has always been entertaining to me
I will say, season 2 is not even bad. There's one part of it that's really messy and annoying, but the rest of it is absolutely gorgeous. The animation in it is top tier, the storytelling as well. The characterisations of other characters were fantastic as well, and it led into the absolutely stunning season 3. People just get so worked up about the 1 bad thing that they paint the entire season as bad when it was, in fact, fantastic.
*"My man's different!"* 😁
Really do love the subtle power scaling going on with Amon in these episodes, Aang needed the avatar state to break through the bloodbending while Amon just keeps casually walking forward with nearly no issue.
"Do we think it's gonna flip?"
My man you have no idea what season 4 has in store for you
a murder mountain must be a blood bending thing cuz Hama def had one too lol
Love the Korra reactions! Honestly, I'm a big fan of Korra, it was a blast watching this show for the first time.
Only part I never enjoyed was the Love Triangle stuff. Mako is so unlikeable when it comes to being a partner lol 😆
14:30 fun fact: according to the official avatar timeline, avatar Kyoshi should have been active for well over 100 years. The way they explained this in the novels is that she may have (never confirmed) learned a bending similar to what you explain to attain borderline immortality.
The amount of times Boom has said "thats how that ends?" in both avatar and Korra is insane lol.
Season 1 was meant to just be its own short story. Then they got renewed for 3 more seasons. And while those seasons were airing, they got dicked around by Nickelodeon multiple times with time slot changes, budget cuts, it went completely online only for half a season, then came back to tv… it was a mess. And all of those little things started to added up.
"I am the solution."
... Yeah, that's a hard ass line, ngl.😂
Boom's about to be looking up Lin body pillows at this rate.
Tenzin is not Aang’s only child. On the first episode Katara mentioned that they have two more kids, Kaya and Bumi. Tenzin is just the only airbender from their kids.
38:01 aang has more kids guys it was said in ep 1 when he was first introduced... aang has 3 kids
38:37
RUFF: Ya’ll gotta kill this man already.
NAGA: I GOTCHU HOMEY
You forgot... In the first episode Tema asks Katara if TENZIN'S SIBLINGS were like her kids. Tenzin is the youngest of three siblings.
You guys are gonna love the season finale!! On the seasons question, Ruff is right. Every season they didn’t know if they were gonna get another one. Season 4 was all online because Nickelodeon took it off the air mid season 3
Amon just walking through the bloodbending and saying "I am the solution" is one of the coldest things I remember seeing as a child
I'm cackling at some of their predictions regarding shipping xD If you know, you know.
I love the subtle foreshadowing in this episode. We have only ever seen two instances of someone resisting/fighting through the effects of bloodbending before we see Amon do it. The first one is in the episode it was revealed in ATLA Book three, where we see Katara resist Hama's bloodbending, essentially taking bloodbending out of the equation and turning their battle into a classic waterbender 1v1. At least until Aang and Sokka arrived to become Hama's meatshields. The second is actually just moments before we see Amon do it, where we see Aang break through Yakone's bloodbending using the Avatar state. So with this information, we can confirm that we know for a fact that Katara and the Avatar state can break through bloodbending. Given this, we can also assume that a waterbender, a bloodbender that is on the same skill of Katara at the very least, can also break through the effects of bloodbending. I just found that it was a nice little foreshadowing for the end of the season when Amon's true identity was revealed.
Tenzin's earthbending @26:32 was INSANCE
Tenzin can’t earthbend.
@@butterflywarrioredits are u stupid
@@butterflywarrioredits Yes, thank you for explaining the joke. Click the timestamp.
To my knowledge the greenlighting of the seasons goes like this.
Nick gave them season 1.
Then Nick gave them season 2.
Finally, Nick gave them seasons 3 and 4 at the same time.
They knew season 4 was the end, I've never heard anyone say otherwise. Yeah, season 4 was left a little open ended; but not like overtly so.
As far as I can tell, the ability to bloodbend without the full moon is just a matter of raw power and/or skill. Hama and Katara couldn't bloodbend at other times because while the water is within someone else's body, their own spirit fights back against outside influence and resists being bent. For Hama and Katara, the full moon gave them enough power to overwhelm this defense and bend another person's body. I don't think it's too unreasonable to assume that a waterbender with more raw power or more skill as a bloodbender could possibly manage to bloodbend someone without the moon's help. Hama invented the art, others have had more time to develop it since then. And I have a feeling that if Katara hadn't banned bloodbending and sworn to never use it again, she might have been able to do it one day herself.
At some points during the entire show most people who said they dislike the legend of Kora hate was mostly Kora and I quote "She is not a great character from the way she acts and treats some people in the early episodes" that's one reason that I remember people complaining about.
I'm pretty sure that is already been said, tenzin is the only airbending children of aang, if you have children with another bender there is multiple outcome possible
(At 36:57) Somewhere in between 50-60's. Lin is DEFINITELY in her 50s.
(At 41:54) Yes, the General is Firelord Zuko's grandson.
My only complaint with korra as a whole, is how that to me, they did the spiritual side of avatar dirty
I wanted an expansion of that part of the worldbuild, but korra's felt like a downgrade
The who Raava and Vaatu was disapointing too, IMO. Why were they just good and evil? Why not make them Order and Chaos or something and the Avatar is the one who has to balance the two, and both together are what creates the Avatar spirit? It would add a lot more to the themes and antagonists of season 3 and 4 too.
Oh no Aang did get busy, we know that Tenzin has siblings, Bumi and Kya, it's just that Tenzin was the only one with Airbending
Don’t worry about the reason people don’t like it. Personally there’s a rough patch at the beginning of book 2 that get resolved and around mid season and everything else is 10/10 great show
Bro this show is dope, glad to finally be seeing it
39:23 Oh gawd why did this make my eyes water? That expression on her face and the reactions LoL
Me seeing them talk about the possibility of asami and bolin dating: 🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥🫥
Your just not a Beifong until you take down an airship.
The baby has a bad habit of coming out at the wrong times
sometimes really high stress situations can induce labor
Rohan always rides in right at the peak of battle.
42:00 grandson actually, Zuko had a daughter :]
Season 3 is soooooo great, I think it's the peak of Korra's story, Season 2 isn't bad, it's just at a different pace and atmosphere which most people might not like. Just like you, I enjoyed every second of Korra...!
I love seeing the reactions to General Iroh
You know it’s funny, because even if every air bender passed away, there is still a small chance that the Avatar’s children could be airbenders. Like it’s never truly extinct I think, just no one around to teach them airbending.
29:09 the way the ship is actually gonna flip just not the way you think lmaooo
Book 2 is the last favorite of most of the fandom, but still good. NOW, the book 3 and 4 are something else. I'm obsessed of how good this seasons are and also their villains. Fantastic
*Season 3* is my absolute favorite so doubt there's any slander - the finale hits hard which is rare
I love that they don't have any defenses or tech to take out air bending 31:19
David Attenborough: Little does the airship know that it's currently being stalked by its natural predator: the Beifong.
OKAY HERE WE GO!! I PUT OFF WATCHING THIS FOR A WEEK SO I CAN WATCH THE FINALE WITH YALL.
Nine and ten. Such a good set.
What happens to Lin is legitimately one of the most tragic things in the whole franchise. Her sacrifice is incredibly brave and selfless. I feel it is undercut by Iroh II showing up. I really bothers me how they undercut Lin in this episode making a joke of tenzin’s children needing to help her fight and then the Iroh reveal.
So happy to see so many reactors appreciating Korra as much as I do.
I have lil issues with the show. My only real issues is that the show had to cut stuff cus of the network n budgeting
The first 2 seasons they didn't know if there would be more. While working on the third season they knew they would get season 4 and I think they knew that would be the end; although much like with ATLA they have release 2 comic trilogies post season 4.
"Permed Friar Tuck" is wild. 😆💀
i was so glad to see Tarlok's immortality theory die a deserved death in this reaction, ngl 💁♀🙂 19:12
Yea each season they thought it would be the last. So it was written that way. Therefore some story elements fall short or feel sour because they need to make the next season make sense based on the crazy stuff from the previous season
So originally it was just supposed to be a mini series which is what book 1 is but then after how popular that was they got the green light for book 2 and 3 so they had to unresolve things from book 1 and set up for the new plot. Then part way through production of book 3 in early airing of book 2 it got renewed for 2 more seasons, then something happened in book 3 I won't spoil and they pulled the show off the air entirely, cut their budget and basically told them to wrap it up in book 4 which would only air sporadically and often was only released online with random last minute late night batches airing on nick.
Amon in episode 9 was a BOMB for me! When I first saw that I faulted on my theory brewing and almost caved to what he claimed at the "Revelation". "The spirits have given me the gift. The ability to take away bending."
**HALF SPOILER WARNING**
I am SO glad I didn't faulter. I sat back down slowly, took a breath, and said, "You ain't that guy."
I will not spell out the truth of Amon, but damn was the ride good.
Iroh is actually Zuko's GRANDSON. He was named after the greatest man Zuko ever knew
yes Chief Sikon's haircut is giving Detective Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) in NYPD Blue. And yes, he was a bigoted asshole lmao
The more I watch people’s reactions the more I enjoy the series. What won’t change though is the love triangle stuff really ruins the flow of the show. As I understand it the first two seasons were stand alone because they didn’t know if they were being renewed but the last two seasons are continuous.
Iroh is Zuko's grandkid
I got my ass kicked by avatar ang's grandkids and all I got was a felony and pink eye
Nice.
So just to say, cause it's not a spoiller, Zuko actually have a daughter, named Izumi, who is actually Iroh's mother
You guys are loving the show and I love that for you guys.
General Iroh is Zuko's grandson. And Dante Basco isn't the only voice actor from the ATLA series to return to Korra: you've heard Clancy Brown voice Yakone in Korra's visions (and he voiced Long Feng, the head of the Dai Li, back in ATLA). Then there's Asami's father Hiroshi voiced by Daniel Dae Kim, who also voiced General Fong in S2 of ATLA (he's the Earth General who tried to speed up Aang's Avatar state), and Daniel will actually portray Fire Lord Ozai in the Netflix live-action version of the series.
There are a few more familiar voices who will return in the upcoming seasons of Korra. You may have already heard them.
“He wants to perfect blood bending in jail” HUH?!??
Yes, the show runners never knew if they were getting more seasons beyond the one they were working on, so each of the books are self-contained narratives. That also means of course that the role of characters may change rapidly between books. Not because of character development, but because the writers want them doing different things for the new narrative that they couldn't have planned for ahead of time. Meanwhile Last Airbender had weaker episodes, but they were all contained under the umbrella of this long form story arc that brought it all together in the end. Characters had arcs that made them feel so much more real.
Plus, individual episodes of last Airbender were contained for the most part. So even if the writing suffered a bit in one episode, it didn't spill into the ones around it. Korra did a more serial style narrative, so even if individual episodes throughout a book are cool, there may be elements from the worst episodes that necessarily impact the plot of later episodes directly. For example, no spoilers or anything, but Book 2 is quite possibly the most panned book out of them all, yet simultaneously has the most beloved two parter in the whole show.
In any case, it's easy to get swept up on the hate train when there's so much negative discourse around the show, but I try to take the good with the bad. My criticisms come from wanting the show to have been better, lost potential so to speak, but I have a good time watching for the most part.
2:06, Dear Boom,
As a personal avatar fans myself, we don’t talk about Season 2 in TLOK, but we do talk about season three. And don’t get me wrong season 2 has its ups and downs.
S2 really is not that bad yes it’s my least favourite out of the 4 books but it still has very high highs ,
Unfortunately as lok is only 12-14 episodes we do miss out on a lot of filler and episode that don’t advance the plot but gives us more character development as sone episodes in atla we’re filler but still gave us time with the crew and we got more from them unfortunately lok especially in book 2 is trying to build a villain and world build , while giving the other characters there own story’s while wrapping it up in 14 episodes and it’s not like they had a choice when Nickelodeon was so stop start with them
Season 2 may be the weakest of all 7 books, but I don't think it's as bad as everyone says, still better than many other shows out there. My biggest problem with it is that there's too much going on at once to keep track of, but it still has its merits. Book 3 however is amazing (I like how in both A:TLA and LoK, B3 is my favourite)
@@ashhabimran239 nah I prefer book 2 of lok over book 1 of atla , but ur right it’s still got amazing voice acting, animation, fight scenes, score and being out side of the avatar world it’s would be an amazing season just does have its issues but i over all still value what it gives to the show and do not shun it
Side note , I prefer both 2 of atla, s3 obviously has an amazing last quarter of that season and still have some very good’s stand out episodes but I think over all book 2 for me is the strongest
as a personal avatar fan myself season 2 is good stop shitting
@@millieboon That’s one thing I did like about Book 2
In an attempt to clear up and possible confusion, General Iroh is the grandson of Lord Zuko and the son of the current Fire lord.
Odds are that Combustionbending is related to the chakras, specifically the Fire Chakra
it's located around the navel, which makes perfect sense because Combustion Man would sharply inhale before firing
Keep it coming
I legit never watched this show but I'm excited for season 2 because I know whats coming that's related to something they said lol
Season 2 has its flaws but so many amazing things are set up there that pay off later on. Worth it.
they loved season 2
