Everyone honestly says they’d rather watch Adult Team Avatar.
And I agree.
That crap would’ve been awesome
I’m just imagining a Toph/Sokka/Zuko episode filmed like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
*The Gaang Kidnaps the Firelord*
yeah, that *crap* would have been fantastic, but that's just my *opinion*
IKR
*if they did, then everyone still complains*
@@deliriouszora I would beg a differ unless they did it horribly.
In all of this...
Where the hell is Sokka? Sokka is a great goddamn warrior, scientist, and strategist. Where the hell is he? He can't be 6 feet under after being the Dr. Stone of the Avatar world.
Fuck you. Just fuck you and your reference to modern cancer anime
Unfortunately, Sokka was the only member of Team Avatar (apart from Aang obviously) to be killed off. Or perhaps fortunately, as it meant they couldn't poorly write a version of him where he's older.
@@buffoonustroglodytus4688 Atleast, a fucking fictional character has more believers than you fucking idiot.
I’m glad he wasn’t there. He was my favourite character and if I saw him in that garbage, I would be even more pissed.
the good thing at least with Sokka is that we saw him as a judge or councilmen i forget exactly but he was a leader in that new city which was something really good to see from the old cast in general
Personally, I think- among many problems with the show- that if Aang DID let a statue be built he would have insisted it be of the ENTIRE GANG! Aang was very well aware he didn't and couldn't defeat the Fire Lord and rebuild the world on his own. So was Zuko- so I doubt he would have wanted it to be just them without Sokka, Katara and Toph.
Worse, there are several statues of the gang members separated by the republic city, I just don't know why they had to make a huge one of Aang when they could only have placed one in the city.
Well Aang probably couldn't save the whole world on his own, but he certainly did defeat Ozai alone.
Probably built it after his death
Probably built after his death.
Zuko’s “stop it uncle,” in the middle of all those destinies had me rolling.

Best played at 2x speed lmao
caught me off guard but it was funny as shit
fun fact according to the writers the soldiers aang attacks in the avatar state almost always die
MeldThe Steel Well it makes sense. An average person wouldn't survive being hit by a god tier being, plus it wasn't until near the end of the series that Aang could actually control the Avatar State.
Source on that? That's hilarious if true.
E;R Dude look at all the characters that actually die in the show one of the writers even said that it's fair to say that those no named soldiers are just dead with no detail except for dead
E;R also sometimes in the show when you see fire nation soldiers get completely fucked up and then they retreat (well when you see them retreat) you see only a small fraction of them leaving.
E;R I also seem to remember seeing a fire nation soldier just floating off onto the sea when aang went avatar crazy in the northern water tribe episode
Azula was a great female character. She was driven, arrogant, strong and she had goals. Even though she was a prodigy she still trained and worked for her power.
Eh yeah, but I do find her downfall to insanity kind of rushed as they kind of said "meh her mother didn't love her but it didn't really affect her until her became firelord." He did have good character foils with Ty Lee and May tho
@@dvf1736 The reason she lost it isn't as contrived as you think. It's actually because her friends betrayed her. And then her last semblance of a support system vanished when Ozai left her behind to be Firelord. She becomes paranoid because everybody she ever loved left her. It's one of Avatar's many masterstrokes of character development.
@@dvf1736 Everything good in her life slowly broke apart over the course of the last two seasons plus in pretty much every flashback to her childhood you get a demonstration of how she's always been a little bit "off". Off as in genuinely sadistic/fucked in the head. They made that very clear throughout the show. Snapping after years of Ozai being her only role model in life isn't exactly a surprise
Korra also worked hard.
I liked her hair and the color of her fire. :)
The avatar Aang photo at the sushi shop was the best part.
Only good part*
@@maclaren9645 yeah pretty much.
I don’t consider legend of Korra canon tbh

My favorite part of this vid xD
I was drinking tea when that came up, freaking tea shooting out of my nose... it hurts
I absolutely hated how Korra suddenly entered the avatar state for no reason at the worst time
"I'm The Avatar and you gotta deal with it!" literally every problem with this show boiled down to one sentence by a toddler age Korra.
They should have released a mini movie of Zuko finding his mom, or atleast a surprise season of the original characters and their progress shortly after Aang defeated the fire lord.
That whole thing is covered in a comic. I'd love to see it animated, but either way, the story has been told.
@@321cheeseman my heart hurt reading that comic, it hurt bad.
They should really retcon the story of Zuko's mother. And Legend of Korra too
or a movie about the cabbage man
IKR
When he said "are you tired of living under the tyranny of benders?" I could only picture Bender from Futurama

Remember that episode where Bender became god?
Spack Jeeka I thought you hated gays and their bullshit agenda
Kingfloppynip The 3rd where did that come from?
The legend of Kora just said “fuck the source material”. That is its biggest flaw.

@@INTERNECION101 "us real OG's"🤓
holy shit
did people really think the legend of korra was better than the last airbender
ikr thy shd kts
Original avatar fan here and hell no, I thought it was only O.K. and only an idiot would think Korra was better.
Most people would lean towards the original series being better (with LoK close behind) but preferring Korra or even asserting it is better certainly isn't unheard of.
There are certain aspects that I like about LoK, but I still think TLAB was better. Also, Rangerboo, go fuck yourself. Seriously. Go fuck yourself. If you seriously think that that is the only reason people like LoK or that that is an acceptable way to think about people, you're a piece of shit.
That said, I liked the fact that Korra represented non-hetero elements, that a sort of confused multi-directional romance evolved throughout the story. Plus I think the little Korra is adorable.
YOU GOTTA DEAL WITH IT!
Matthew Pendleton
Well I hated the way they represented the "non-hetero elements" they could've done it soooo so much better. The way they did it made no sense, it was more like "yooo Asami wanna bang? lol" than an actual relationship buildup and was completely botched from it's short beginning to end.
Also fuck that "You gotta deal with it" shit. Why does the world have to bend to Korra's will when it didn't for Aang?
what ppl dont know is herobrine is steve but in avatar state
I never thought of that it makes since sence some people belive has a liggting stick
*He's too dangerous to be kept alive*
I have to tell that to all my friends- ur a genius!
This is one of the most creative comments I’ve seen 😂
this changes my perception of minecraft
Always hated that she struggled with air and not fire and we started with her already knowing elements instead of progressively training
In the Avatar universe the easiest element for an air bender is water and vice versa. Fire is the hardest for them. They just straight up didn't care about the established universe with Korra
@@crooked9210 hell no, for airbenders its hard for earthbending, and same goes to airbenders for earthbenders, and waterbenders and firebenders have the same for that.
@@crooked9210 so no
@@3HorsemenOfMovingPictures that's what I was saying. I guess I just phrased it weird. I was saying how fire is the hardest for water benders
And the fact that she got “trained” at her house/home country instead of Aang who actually had to travel all over the world for many many months and meet different people.
ATLA: aang having a stable relationship
Legend of whorra: dating everyone in the group cheated on them all just to find out your gay
I love how Korra is called Whorra when Mako was the real whore of the show. And look at Sokka from Avatar. Dating 2 people at seperate times doesnt make you a whore. Misogyny though, i get the agenda.
This leaked into the previous cast too. Like how it’s seemingly implied that Sokka had at least one child with Toph despite being with Suki.
@@doopdoopdopdop7424 I'm sorry, WHAT
Toph’s second kid. Dark skin, arm bands, etc. Tokka cultists latched onto it and declare Sokka as the father.
When Korra lost all her bending in the first season, the following episodes should have been her trying to recover the other elements and learning humility and stuff, but no. Some avatar state voodoo happens and then she gets handed her powers back with no consequences for fighting Amon- learning nothing at all from the experience T_T
lol yeah
ChocoGummies thats because Nickelodeon only intended for the show to be one season
I can understand skipping over the learning phase, we've already seen an entire series on that.
Still, they wrote it like idiots. Yeah she's talented in 3 of 4 elements at age 5. Alright. She loses her bending, except air for some fucking reason, a technique she'd never once achieved just clicks for her, (OoOkaY) and gets it back with little consequence.
@@asanaquarian1302 yeah but then again they could have cut out asami and used that extra time.
Would have been cool if she had to learn the other forms of bending instead
When you hear Destiny so many times, it stops sounding like a word
Same with Ba Sing Se, it just devolves into syllables
Dusty knee
That, my friend, is what's called semantic satiation.

You see that a show is bad when the main thing its fandom does is: Shower the show with appraisals for only having an LGBT ship that was only there to meet a quota and making memes about people who hate it. Seriously if the only two things you do in a fandom is to say how much a ship is good and progressive or how people that didn't like it, doesn't get it or is something-phobic, your show kiddo is garbage.
I can't name a single show with a gay protagonist that was good.
@@justahumanwithamask4089 hey buddy, you’re sounding pretty homophobic.
/S.
@@justahumanwithamask4089 That's cause such a show doesn't exist. There's a manga/anime called The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window that makes a good effort but the end result was still basically average.
Maybe the reason a gay, trans, etc. protag doesn't work that well is because when a writer actually does create a character who is interesting in some way who happens to align with some other sexual orientation or identity, that orientation always becomes their defining "character trait" like clockwork. It is almost like the script writers get so excited about representation that they forget to make the story interesting to the 99.9% who want to watch a show to be entertained by a more dynamic plot.
@@Houlgravely we could argue that Josuke from JoJo is gay , and he is one of the best mc from the show... then again this is Araki the god . One of the best writers
Sounds like RWBY in a nutshell
RIP that show
Dear Hollyweird: Self-righteous, conceited, abusive, loud, near-psychopathic does not make one a strong character.
Those are actually the traits that Hollywood deems most valuable.
Watch the entire show please. If you did, then I am *really* confused as to how you would think this.
@@caseyurich9190 Korra shows these traits alot, even in this video. It's concerning
@@caseyurich9190 No. I watched the show and Korra is a horrible person and a horrible character.
@@SpagettiSpeltWrong this mf stole asami's man by forcing herself onto him
Avatar: The Last Airbender was about a boy and his friends going on a journey to discover themselves and learn all the elements in order to defeat the genocidal fire nation.
The Legend of Korra was about a petty love triangle.
Actually, it's more of a love square thing infected by a Cthulhu monster.
honestly season 3 was my favorite season partly because they completely dropped the love subplot. It was just a major disruption in seasons 1 and 2
@Imperial Judesmen138 i feel like it was easier for ATLA since they were all younger. But Korra is 16 which is basically the most popular age for a girl in a teen romance drama. Only problem is that Korra's story wasnt supposed to be a teen romance drama in the first place, but that was basically all Mako was good for in Season 2
@@deiondre0 you know, what I slightly agree with you
No, It wasn't. Yes, that was a big part of it. But The Legend of Korra dug deeper into the hardships of being the Avatar that ATLA. Here, www.cbr.com/legend-korra-better-avatar-airbender/
It would’ve been brilliant if, after having lost her powers, we would’ve seen an avatar struggle with.. not being the avatar. Especially because being the avatar was such a huge thing for her, she loved it. It would’ve been fascinating to see essentially the opposite of Aang’s arc.
Nickelodeon gave them a 1 season/12 ep to create a story. Her struggling to be the avatar is something they for sure would've explored if nick had just managed stuff better and not tell then its a 1 off and then asking for another season after they finish the story.
Yet "her having to deal with not being the avatar" was still greatly shown, not as clearly due to limitations in an all age show. But in the final episode, after losing her bending, korra sits on thd cliff right before aang shows up and she is avtualy about to jump and suicide because in her mind the world doesnt need an avatar that is a spiritual failure and can only bend 1 element, therefor suiciding so that the next avatar can do all the things she can't. I mean, if that doesnt show a great struggle with not being the avatar anymore and her having to decide for the faith of her life and the entire world, then i dont know what does
@SushiSharkCøal the story of wan was am oroginal story the writers came up with during the writing of atla, yet they never had the time and moment to introduce it into the show. Which is why they decided to do the lion turtle at the end of book3 with the plans to explain the story of the avatar in the comics. Then nick asked the writers for a season 2 about spirits which gave the writers the perfect moment to tell their backstory about the avatar spirit
Stefan I never interpreted that scene as her wanting to die. I don’t think they showed it “greatly” at all and therefore missed valuable character growth (and instead made Aang give her the bending back, which is an easy way out in my opinion). But we agree to disagree.
@@breezter yeah i agree it wouldve been better to realy show het struggle on screen, but the intention was there and the meaning behind it was explained by the writers. Just the fact of it being a nick show means they cant just fiddle with ideas of suicide etc. Sadly
This paired, with the inequality between benders and non-benders, could have been amazing social commentary on inequality (both racial and economic), a great character arc, and showed that you don’t need superpowers to be a hero.
I’m just imagining Korea shifting from a Malcom X to a Martin Luther King Jr. A character who once relied solely on physical strength gradually becoming a true spiritual leader who fights with their words instead of fists? Sign me the fuck up!
Even tho it is a fantasy, I feel like they advanced in technology WAAAAY too fast. ATLA makes it seem like ancient China, 70 yrs later it’s like 1920s?!
@@bobuxman5034 I know, those bending games or whatever was such a joke. Bending was supposed to be an art and they turned it into a joke. Sometimes I just pretend that Korra never existed haha.
@@spencerphillips2658 no atla had ships and advanced machines like a big ass drill
@@Antimony145 And 70 years later they had techno Tokyo. Way too quick of a leap given how everything was steam powered in ATLA.
Even with the ability to lightning bend, it doesn't change the fact that they've got no experience or knowledge with harnessing electricity for use.
@@Antimony145 Right, but as addressed in the video that was a result of a war, which tends to accelerate technological growth in certain very specific areas. None of the rest of the Fire Nation's tech we see in AtLA was (as far as I can remember) nearly as advanced as their military equipment. So if we were to apply the theory seriously, something like Republic City could conceivably have things as advanced as mid-19th century trains, but certainly not automobiles, given that Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom tanks were both bending-powered.
Tbh not really.
Compare 1950s and 2020.
Thats 70 years and look how much we progresed in literally everything.
The only thing actually acceptable is progression of world in terms of tech, science and other things.
But i still think they shouod have kept it similar to Aangs world and not go so modern
The fact that Korra rekindled her exes feeling for her, only to steal his girl...

Honestly korra’s arrogance could’ve been dope. Have her realize that she has to get over her conceit in order to effectively serve the world as the avatar. It might’ve been a good character arc. It wasn’t though.
Did you like...watch the show?
@Manannan anam Dude said it could've been good if "she had to get over her conceit in order to effectively serve the world as the avatar". That may as well be a synopsis of the first season. Regardless of whether or not you liked it that is very much what happens lol.

From the moment I learned Korra, born to waterbenders, mastered firebending as a toddler without a firebending master, I knew the show was going to be a crapshoot with no respect for the original. No more consistent lore, no more poetry, no more balance, just plot conveniences and plot contrivances for the rest of time. Not canon, too inconsistent with the definitive canon.

@@andymcclurg9916 bruh
Andy McClurg He isn’t. There was an investigation and no evidence was found. Also the person who accused him refused to participate in the investigation .
Yeah, I would rather they had introduced an entirely new cast of characters like 300 years earlier or something. Knowing Aang is dead and all the others old and decrepit really bothers me. I also just think it’s unnecessary. People say that it’s just realistic and you have to accept they’ll grow old but I disagree. It’s ok for the gang in the original show to remain young in our minds forever. They’re fictitious characters so they’re not bound by our depressing constraints of reality, we don’t have to see them grow old. I’m pretty sure it was done intentionally so we’d have to renounce our affinity for them and switch it for LOK’s new gang. A real shame and one of the reasons I just pretend LOK doesn’t exist. The explanation for Aang’s early death is just terrible as well.
I was 14 years old when this video released, and now I’m 21 years old watching part 2 of book 3. See you all in 2040 when this RUclips series comes to a close
Lmao same
I only discovered Avatar recently- never had the chance to watch it as someone without Netflix. It was amazing. I’d have sleepless nights binging the show- I couldn’t get enough. I loved everything about it: the characters, plot, worldbuilding, and the turtle ducks. Then I saw there was a sequel, and I got so exited, I watched episode 1, and it was garbage. Korra was a jerk, the locations looked weird, the worldbuilding was funny, the species and character designs sucked, they even killed my boy Sokka! Glad the first episode wasn’t just a fluke, and the whole thing was garbage.
As a new watcher, whats your most favorite and leats favorite episode?
@@FargonNemeloc Sorry if I spoiled anything for you.
I have multiple favourites, it’s too hard to choose.
It’s weird bc Sokka is my (second) favourite character (I said my second because uncle Iroh is everyone’s favourite so it doesn’t count) but many of my favourite episodes focus on Zuko.
In chronological order:
The storm (season 1, episode 12)
Zuko alone (season 2, episode 7)
Tales of Ba Sing Se (season 2, episode 15)
The western air temple (season 3, episode 12)
The Ember island players (season 3, episode 17)
Least favourite episode is the fortune teller (season 1, episode 12)
Enjoy the show! I’m currently on my 3rd rewatch, so I can confirm, even if some of the earlier episodes are a bit weak and fillery (but half the episodes I listed are filler, there’s lots of RUclips video essays on why ATLA has good filler), it gets so good.
@@willowdigger617 no, i meant you as a new watcher, i saw all this when it came out and dreaded when seasons finished, hated the wait time in between and loved how the story unfolded
I love this series and have seen it multiple times since then
Also, good choices, sokka is.good, but truly the character that gets more development is Zuko, so no surprise hes the one you like most
@@FargonNemeloc oh, I thought you’d just began the series. Yep, I’ve accidentally become obsessed, literally watching episode 6 right now (I’m a multitasker don’t worry). I do prefer Sokka over Zuko (but not by much), I just feel like he doesn’t get enough screen time. Tales of Ba Sing Se and Ember island players I both like mostly for the Sokka parts (but I still like the Iroh sections in both)
You have great taste. As someone who watched it when it for came out on television and then rewatched many times after, I feel the same way about nearly everything, second favorite being Sokka, favorite episodes, korra being hot garbage, etc. I'm guessing you're a logical person who can see past most of your own and other people's biases because I'm often told I'm like that.
Wait...DIO was Amon the whole time?!

Personally, I think this show would be MADE if Yoshikage Kira was the villain.

@@yukijames1321
1.) Pema advised Korra to go for it - it had worked with her and Tenzin. Korra was taking the advice of an older woman, and the wife of her master. Moreover, Mako and Asami had only been dating for a couple months at most - teenage romances rarely last longer than that. Additionally, the whole "love triangle" "will they, won't they" plotline has been established in fiction for centuries. It's hardly outside of the norm for a character to kiss another one to try and steal their love from another.
2.) Bolin asked _her_ out to try and make _her_ feel better - chivalrous and a good friend. After she hurt his feelings, she apologized and mended their friendship.
3.) She's the Avatar - you don't begrudge Aang for running into problems, do you?
@@hanburgundy4317 those don't make someone immature.
I’m glad that someone finally mentioned that the anti-bending people... actually had a point.
Firstly, everyone would rather be born as a bender. It would be kind of annoying to be part of the majority of people who lack such a fun ability. Secondly, benders have more job opportunities. Thirdly, if you were the target of a criminal who could bend, you wouldn’t stand a chance against them. Non-benders have to live with more fear and boredom than benders.
It’s obviously bad for them to forcibly take peoples bending away, but the way the show was so black and white on the issue was disappointing.
yea this could have been such an interesting theme to explore! I found myself agreeing with a lot of equalist sentiments, and disliking korra as a main character didn't really help persuade me that the fight against the equalists was justified either
Niamh Adams That’s what I love about the original series. It explored those who were angry at the Fire Nation for the war and terrorized them back. Hama and Jet, for example. In the show, everyone that wasn’t from the Fire Nation had a disdain for them even though we know that’s not the case. Imagine how boring the series would’ve been if they kept it simple Fire Nation bad vs Everyone good.
Loida Perez yes! this is exactly what LOK was lacking, this nuanced view on everything, war, family, even morality. LOK dropped what made this childhood show so wise in an attempt to make it more sophisticated and failed miserably

I don’t understand why Fire is Korra’s most used and first choice of bending. Since she is born in a water tribe, shouldn’t her most powerful element be water and the worse fire?
Because it’s not the opposite element from you’re original element but the element most opposite from ur personality. For Korra it was air because her personality is far from an air nomad in the beginning.
Because they retconned it to keep validating their sue in every way. In the original, it is as you say, the opposite element to their main one is the hardest. It was the case with Aang and Roku, who had issues with earth and water respectively. However in LoK they retcon it so now is the opposite to the personality of the avatar (which is stupid and makes no sense. Zuko wasn't able to bend fire because he wasnt acting like a fire bender, for example). If they do that then suddenly their sue being able to master fire makes sense, but then she shouldnt be able to bend water either. That and the whole crap with the lion turtles handing bending to humans are all bullshit devices to justify whorra being able to bend when she is like 4.
Being able to master an element requires a knowledge and understanding of the philosophy of that particular element. Avatars who start with a particular element would naturally have a harder time learning a form of bending that contradicts what they're comfortable with. It's why Aang who is used to being light on his feet had such a hard time with the heavy and forceful nature of earth bending. With that reasoning it makes sense why an Avatar wont always have trouble with their opposite element since you cant expect all members of a nation to have the exact same personality. Korra being bad at fire bending is counter intuitive but it makes a lot of sense why grasping airbending was so difficult for her. The real issue is her being able to bend 3 elements at age 4. It's so ridiculous
@@golf100 Uh... in ATLA they literally said it was the opposite element from yours?? Tf?? You can't just go around changing the rules of your universe when you please. Makes no sense bud.
Fire is easy, you just have to angry about something and then, fire go boom.
Starting off with an arrogant, un-spiritual avatar who was the opposite of Aang could've been a good thing, imo. The idea presents new possible struggles.
It's apparent that Korra was given praise for most of her life for being the avatar, so perhaps she could've gone through a journey to learn to empathize more with average people. Perhaps only having a brute force/physical understanding and style of bending should've actually made her bending weaker to a serious extent.
Also, it makes sense that Korra (or any non-air nomad avatar) would have more pride about being the avatar than Aang, due to cultural differences with how the avatar is perceived by different people.
Having a humble, non-materialistic, and non-violent culture, the air nomads naturally may not have given their avatars as much worship and clout for being amazing and strong as the other nations did.
It really would have been a good character arc if they had done that. It's not just the Air Nomads being more spiritual, the Southern Water Tribe's culture is completely destroyed so they don't have any connection to the spiritual. This could have been the chance to see what challenges this Avatar goes through because she is growing up in the aftermath of genocide. Aang still had previous knowledge of the good times before the war. But after the war, Korra would have grown up in a completely different environment in which the traditions of training the Avatar had been broken. I mean, she learns that she's the Avatar at 5. Most Avatars didn't learn about their abilities until they were 16. I am so disappointed that they didn't place the story on Korra's journey in which she realizes that her notion of identity as being the Avatar is unhealthy.
All of that would be sick if Korra didn’t stay that way the entire time
This would have been great.
I think it was touched a little when she was afraid Amon would take her bending away, but when it happened, they had to taint Aang to give her back everything because she was sad. And then it was ignored.
Stop using your brain.
What I don't like about Korra is that she was acting line a kid.
Aang WAS A kid so he had an excuse. Korra was a young adult, but she destroyed an Air Nomad artefact, was a privileged brat even tho her parents weren't that well off compared to the North, and so many more things.
And she seemed weaker than Aang. She was supposed to be a genius too.
I hate to be that person but the villains were more entertaining than her. Kuvira ? Varrick ? the Red Lotus ?
+ I hated Tenzin's siblings at first. Getting on his ass for being too serious about the Air Nomads was so weird to me bc Aang was the last Airbender, so Tenzin HAD to pop out kids and manage the Air Nomads. This is logic.
I dont hate Lok rather indifferent to it, but it extremly funny how butthurt the fans got at any critisism the show get xD.
They get 'butthurt' because people actually bash on it so hard. There are tons of videos out there calling it a waste of time and all that. You can't blame fans for wanting to defend something they like.

Why can't people write female characters who struggle for their powers? What is so hard about this? See literally any female lead written in the past 10 years.
whomst'd've because women are above hard work. That’s for the weaklings like cisgendered straight men.
People are so scared of seeming sexist that they sacrifice any relatability to the character, dont they realize that to get people to care about the character they need to be shown working hard, failing and eventually become more powerful, killbill did such a good job developing their female lead and now people will pass off any randomly powerful female character as female empowerment
Because they are afraid of the female character seeming weak. Women must be portrayed to be perfect, and hilariously powerful without any struggle.
The people who do this are the ones who really degrade female characters because they take anything interesting or deep out of them, which is the most sexist thing to do.
Uhhhhh I don't know if this counts...but Lara from the Tomb raider??
Didn't you watch book 3 and book 4 ? Korra is clearly struggling and rising from the bottom
I rewatched the first episode of Korra recently. I never noticed the first time watching it how quickly paced it was, they just don't give time to build things up before Korra is off to Republic city. Avatar spent two episodes in the south pole setting up their cast before setting off on their adventure. there's also a lot of characters just announcing their own character traits without letting us see them.
It’s honestly not fair at all to compare this show to the Star Wars prequels, only because, even if you hate them (I love them, personally) they don’t actively shit on the originals the way Korra shits on Avatar. A much fairer comparison imo would be the Disney Star Wars.
EDIT: It has been brought to my attention that this video predated the Disney’s sequel trilogy. While I stand by everything I said about the prequels, I do want to retract the last part
Agreed. I hate it when people hate on the prequels for no reason. I'm just going to say, I like the Legend of Korra

its a known fact if you bring the "message" or politics in to a movie,anime,cartoon the quality of it will fail so hard. Time after time it showed... when i watch korra i was like omg niceeee cant wait...first episode i stop caring about her personality and character.... I had hope that she would learn but nope
Cause korra = stronk, colored, lesbian, genius woman/girl and all male on the show = either passive, useless, idiot, a side boy toy
You've been watching the Critical Drinker, haven't you?
I watched about one minute of Korra and could tell straight away why fans hated it. Korra is an obnoxious MarySue.
Aang had self doubt, uncertainty, modesty and a lot of heart. He fought out of compassion for others. Korra was a cocky brat who enjoyed violence.
I think she was only a Mary sue when the plot demanded it, which is basically every season finale, otherwise shes always weak.
Dude,I admit it's not and will never be as good as it's predecessor,but Korra was no Mary Sue,she went through trauma,took massive Ls and suffered PTSD
@@odariel4292 I highly reccomend The Legend of Korra is Garbage (and here is why) by Lily and Mikaila Orchard might have spelled the channel wrong but if you search up Legend of Korra is garbage should be the first result. Go to the section of Korras stilted character arc about 19 minutes in if you dont want to watch the full thing and watch just that section. I reccommend the full video though it was a great watch. Korra is 100% a Mary Sue and a flat one tone character. Writing in PTSD for your character is the laziest writing choice to fake giving your character depth. And when you take into context what she has already gone through before this point her getting PTSD from this event doesnt make any sense contextually. Lastly you can be a Mary Sue and still go through PTSD. She didnt earn her powers in the similar vain Aang did. We are shown that she mastered 3 elements just because shes that good apparently
@@odariel4292Her ptsd arc was so bs lol. In season 2 she literally got manipulated and faced the fucking devil and lost connection to her past lifes but walked it off

U even seen s3 and 4? She fking gets completely broken by zaheer and leans what it means to be vunerable and to respect others. Even saving kuveera from death, risking her own. Seeing herself and her own flaws in kuveera and learning to respect them and be more humble towards others. Seems like exactly what you asked for to me?!
@@stefan3597 you read the comics my friend ?
my point was they make her look like that at the end of every damn season then a new season comes boom she is back in business,
It's like the creators intended to end the show with every season they made "that is it we're done let us celebrate to the end of this new great show the story is conclude it " then the studio comes with a surprise attack "you know what guys let's make a new season"
examples :beginning of s1 bas girl the end of s1 good girl
, the beginning s2 very bad girl , the end of s2 good girl
,the beginning of s3 bad girl the end of 3 good broken girl ,
The beginning of 4 annoying bad girl the end good girl,
The Comics story lines *so on so forth*.
Also I dare say that season 4 was the only one they have *planned ahead* like any other good story telling.
And that's what's good about knowing how your Story begins and ends,
that's what made avatar The Last Airbender the legend it is today because it had a specific destination.
Korra failed because there's no sense of adventure, the characters are all one note and boring, the plots feel disjointed and poorly written, and Korra is waaaaay too much of a Mary sue, making her development lackluster and her personality nonexistent. The number one biggest issue to me, however, is how the amazing choreography based in the rich backstories of the different real life martial arts was largely discarded in favor of fairly kickboxing style martial arts that seemed fairly interchangeable between each of the elements. Made the fight scenes far less fun to watch.
The only people who really insist the legend of Korra was awesome merely want that to be the truth because of their own personal politics and how they felt korra catered to those politics. They would be honest about it sucking had aang and Korra switched series.

Why is everyone confused? Korra is better than Aang because she identifies as a girl…derp guys! And she has non-white skin, so she is naturally more skilled than Aang: Korra had to deal with oppression from the day she was born, and by the time she was 4, she had turned that hate into love and channeled that love into skills. Aang was given all his skills at birth because of inherent systemic privilege; Korra had to WORK at her skills so she understand sacrifice and hard work! She is the opposite of a Mary-Sue #loveislove
Of course!
Aang is a privileged rich cis white male with loving parents, he never faced oppression of any kind, unlike Korra.

Yall ain't alone
How to take a story based on traditional themes and ruin it by turning it into modernist tripe.
Basically this review would 100% apply to Boruto as well. In every way. OP child prodigy. Super modern Konoha village. Annoying irredeemable brat for a main character. Shits on all the moral lessons of the far superior previous series....
This ∆
James Onen this comment made my day. Here is your like.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Boruto is what Naruto would have been if the flaws of late Shippuuden had been around since the beginning.
Moral lessons like: if you're stupid and put in only the bare minimum effort you can succeed with your parents' hard work and unbelievable luck.
Naruto is just as bad as a character as Korra. It's supposed to give the lesson that even an average joe who isn't very bright can succeed with hard work and determination, but Naruto only manages anything because he was handed the strongest tailed beast.
Granted, that doesn't mean every character in Naruto is that bad. Rock Lee actually does embody that lesson perfectly. He actually worked hard his entire life on taijutsu to overcome the fact he couldn't do ninjutsu where Naruto was simply handed better affinity for ninjutsu than he actually had and because of that didn't have to work.
Naruto is just as much an irredeemable brat as his son, so Boruto's nature is perfectly in line with his father's example.
Except it wouldn't...
Boruto being "op" is literally a complaint I've never seen until just now; because Boruto is actually incredibly weak compared to the cast in part 1 or Naruto at the beginning.
Konoha being more modern is neither here nor there, it's not like they didn't have that technology already anyway.
Boruto being an "irredeemable brat" is just fan salt. The kid's mad at his father for not being a father. Naruto does bullshit like send a shadow clone to his daughter's birthday party (which ruins the day) instead of being there himself while leaving the clone to do desk work. He stays away from home for extended periods of time and it affects the household, something Boruto picks up on. It's the same kind of lashing out a kid with a parent always gone on military duty, or police duty, or always at the office does. The entire arc with Momoshiki was addressing this and afterwards Boruto and Naruto have a great relationship; that aspect of the character is basically gone. And most of the fans weren't even worried about that because the Boruto movie had been out way before that so everyone already knew what that character arc was. Outside of that, what does he do that makes him an irredeemable brat? Hell, Sarada pulled the worst shit, straight up doubting to her mom's face who her father was.
And all of the moral lessons are different and unrelated... so... you're going to have to be specific about that.
IMO, Legend of Korra would have been a much better show if they:
- had Korra lose her bending around the midway point of the first season, forcing her to HAVE to learn spirituality because she can't do any of the other bending styles anymore
- didn't have the stupid Amon plot twist where he was a waterbender using a fake sob story to get people to swing to his side (imo that should have been the actual backstory, instead of "oh my daddy taught me how to bloodbend and I used that to take people's bending away")
- Amon was a chi blocker who could stop take away people's ability to bend by semi-permanently damaging their chi nodes
- had Korra re-do the Avatar Journey into, and including, the Spirit World and Civil War diatribe
- went through with the civil war arc entirely
- dropped the stupid Avatar Wan shit
- have Zahir just be a nonbender who's incredibly goddamn skilled at subterfuge and using underhanded tactics to get to his end goal
- showed Kuvira actually doing some of the shit people had said she'd done
- didn't focus on fucking ship wars so much
Why do people hate the Avatar Wan subplot so much? Aside from Raava and Vaatu being objective moral entities, I don't think the rest is too bad

@@theanti-christ2842 Aint no moral gray there, the Wan special putright says the spirits are the invaders. Ignoring the fact that Wan was kicked out for trying to screw over his fellow humans he still let those men be killed for no reason. The Catdeer he saved wasn't even a spirit and he is fully aware that his former home is full of people who are risking their lives just to eat.
It was terrible and didn’t get better until the end of the show. Too late to care then.
Korra was a forced shallow character. She had everything handed to her including having a family, and yet very little in terms of personal ambition to develop on. She seemed to get more hostile with each season, and remained generally unlikeable in personality and activity abusing her power until the last season which by then made it too late to start liking her. I was satisfied seeing her get traumatized, and by the end was just glad it was finally over.
And again, I was not surprised she turned into a lesbian. I called it from the start.
Aang lost everything flung into a world he no longer recognized being the last of his culture. He endured a lot of hardship to gain all the power and wisdom he would need to restore balance to the world again. He earned his support. Would’ve been nice if his story went on just a little longer. That’s a real achievement unlike Korra with a limited and unremarkable imbalanced cast of characters who at least had more personality and value than she herself as the hero. Their own stories, however, had much to be desired. Not as bad as her though.

Fire nation had airships, battleships, giant drill
i know fica but i meant that it just felt like ships made of metal, they were not heavily industrial
The difference in our world between 70 years ago and now are astounding. The industrial revolution completely changed our world so how could you say that in Avatar it wouldn’t really make sense? After Aang’s arc, he focused on the industrialization of the world and the technology, all covered in the comics.
In the real world, the gap between the first plane ever made and the moon landing was only 66 years.

Nostalgia For Infinity not according to the rules of the world everyone in that show can take a beating and still get back up. There are many instances of people take what would essentially be death blows in our world but ATLA goes by a different standard
Yeah in real life, the Avatar series doesnt follow real life physics, 99% of the fights in the shows would have ended in death, nobody could take a rock the size of a cannonball to their body at like 100km/h and still be in one piece, but in the series theyre just knocked to the ground and then stand up.
A reviewer with some brain unlike those who defended legend of Korra
@Rocky Croods looks like someone can’t take criticism
Yes you don't have a brain cause you have a different opinion then me
Liking a show doesn't make you braindead
true
@@joehan7205 liking a show is one thing thinking it's good simply because you love it is a whole can of worms
I get it now, Korra really is a more mature show. Everything in it is dumb, makes no sense, fucking stupid and somehow continue to exist. Just like real life.
To be fair, rule34 definitely is enjoying the show.
Daniel S i am too;-)
Hate to say it but so is tumblr.
True
This is how you know kids never watched this show lmfao

When old katara said "and my brother is gone" I was so sad :(
I cried for days
World would never be same without Sokka...
Omg that made me so sad! And with this disappointing new characters, it felt even worse. I would love it that they made the series about them grown up. That would have been cool and seeing Aang raise his son would have been so adorable.
Especially since he apparently had no kids? Are you telling me Sakka and Suki didn’t have children, they were literally banging during TLA.
@@rickkcir2151 They probably did, but the creators probably ignored Sokka and just didn't reveal much information about him.
Avatar is far better than Korra, in fact I stopped watching shortly after season 2 when it was still airing. However people are comparing the abilities of Aang and Korra, at 12 and 17 respectively, gotta remember than Aang was living in a time of War. Not only that he had a very strict time frame to master his abilities. So it would make sense why he was better at a younger age. Similar to how in human history people did things at ages that we wouldn’t imagine them doing nowadays at the same age. Korra wasn’t born into and era of war and strife. My only defense on that aspect
This video is 6 years old now.... But I realise now upon watching it again why I liked it. I just wanted more avatar and didn't remember enough to realise all the lore it fucked up. I could accept Korra's mega skills because I realised they wanted to skip most of the training arc and so I was trapped.
That's what brought me to this God-awful sequel. I binged the last airbender and wanted more. Then I finished Whorra and just felt disappointed.
They basically destroyed many interesting parts of atla like the white lotus,lightning bending,....who am I kidding they basically butchered all the lore
The only thing I liked about this show is the music, tenzin and Lin beifong (she deserved more screentime) that's it. Oh and jinora was alright.
No wonder. I think its because Atla and Lok have different writers.
Atla is cooler though. It also rocks, and is lit.
@@axonfox Same writers lol
@@napster3075 Correction: all but one of the writers returned. That missing writer definitely helped shape what we have now in ATLA.
@@scorpiocarnage1055 Yeah!
So this is what Legend of Korra didn't have that Avatar The Last Airbender had:
Aaron Ehasz (and Elizabeth Ehasz I think...)
@@axonfox Correct.
The beginning should have been:
Water... Water... Water... Water...
and don’t forget water
@@pedmonds2011 dont forget water

I dont get the joke? Anyone?
All of LoK may as well have been a very badly written fan fiction, all culminating with the avatar and whatsername holding hands stepping into the spirit world.
I also liked it when they had to have Aang come back and literally hand her her powers.
is it wrong that i laughed at Korra getting beaten by boards of wood?
*Shows montage of Aang beating people up*
Me: "It's a cartoon. Blunt force trauma doesn't exist."
Except in the case of Jet........
*laughs in suf*
It's ironic how the 12 year old (Aang) is more mature and less impulsive than the nearly adult character (Korra, who is 17 at the start of the series)
Aang? He was a whiny goofball and a child. Korra was a hotheaded teenager. Neither were adults lol
actually aang was 112 so yea also e should be arrested for kissing a 12 year old at 112
@@hanburgundy4317 show where aang whines. Korra was just plain psychopathic at times, and "she's a teen" doesn't excuse her behaviour. In terms of maturity, aang was on a much higher standpoint.

You answer my questions, then I'll answer yours.
@@hanburgundy4317 Kid, come up with questions that are related to the topic and are logical to the show. Then I'll answer
The title of the video translated into Portuguese is one of the funniest word puns I've ever read in my entire life. It's so many times better than the original version I almost thought the English version was a translation. One letter change and now "Korra" means the swear equivalent of "FUCK!" in Portuguese, wich is "porra" ("cum"/"semen" in english). It's just perfect.
why would her parents let her leave when the reason she was being kept secret is because criminals were after her?
