The Legend of Korra

It was worse.

>>90614006
Season 1 was okay
Season 2 was shit
Season 3 was only tolerable because of the villains
Season 4 was SJW pandering garbage

>>90614006
It was really good and I'm into very fit girls because of it.

Season 1 was good up until the end.
Season 2 is misunderstood. Full of plotholes but introduces good characters except for the villain who sucks.
Season 3 is the high point of the series and on par with the best seasons of ATLA.
Season 4 is good up until the end again.

>/co/ is just pissy that it had a yuri end because it threatened their fee fees that girl always gets with the guy they self insert with.
More like it wasn't at all well written but whatever.

But beyond the writing, I was upset because of two things:
1. I think it sends a message about the stereotype that girls can't be straight while being tough and strong. "You like baseball? What a lesbian." If Asami was a lesbian, or Mako gay with that twink prince, ok whatever. But it was Korra, the one character that defied the stereotype.

2. It gave a voice to the annoying fandom that just wanted the pairing because it's hot. Asami is such a wet cardboard of a character. And now everyone will demand their fanfic pairings to be canon. They gave them power. And I hate shippers more than anything in this world, related to media.

>>90614255
>>korra could probably be diagnosed as mentally retarded
She wasn't even that. She was clearly very sheltered.

>>90614080
Season 1 was okay, but with too much pro-bending and a shitty ending
Season 2 was shit, except for the first avatar stuff
Season 3 and 4 were good, but never great

>>90614336

>>1. I think it sends a message about the stereotype that girls can't be straight while being tough and strong.

There are far more examples of straight tomboys in cartoons. This is probably the only one where it's not true. And she's not gay, she's bi. And Asami is also bi, and doesn't fit the stereotype at all, so that ruins your point.

>2. It gave a voice to the annoying fandom that just wanted the pairing because it's hot

Modern fandoms have fans of EVERY pair. You could make this argument about literally every pair.

How many protagonists though? Besides Korra is one of the few tomboys that isn't just part of a slice of life comedies, she's an action series protagonist that isn't stereotypically femenine.
>And she's not gay, she's bi.
Not a big difference. Doesn't matter when it comes to my point.
>And Asami is also bi, and doesn't fit the stereotype at all, so that ruins your point.
Which I mentioned before. I said Asami being bi or gay or whatever didn't matter, but Korra does.

>>90614080
>Season 4 was SJW pandering garbage
How?
Because you can't seriously imply that the lesbian thing that came out of nowhere and was only subtext (and free to ignore) is SJW pandering, unless I am missing something else here.
If 10 seconds lesbian is seriously the summarization of season 4 then the overall quality of that season must've been unremarkable shit.

Its better to let an effeminate gay prince rule than a right wing breeder even if she is a woman. Especially since she's white as well

>>90614006
Season 1 - Until that nonsense that was the ending, this season was more or less perfect. Everyone loved it, fanart was everyone, people even liked Mako for god's sake. If this had stayed a miniseries and the show had never continued, people nowadays would probably remember Korra quite fondly because of this first season.

Grade: A

Season 2 - Holy motherfucking shit was shit season bad, just, just fucking horrible. Terrible animation, too many plot points, non of which ever tied in with one another, introduced interesting new characters but never explored them because we had to deal with the personal drama of now irrelevant characters from season 1. Just, just, so bad!

Grade: D

Season 3 - It was average, not great, not bad, just average. It seems a lot better in hindsight because it came after that shit nonsense that was season 2, but it really wasn't that great. They travel the earth kingdom, melodrama happens, and then they fight the cool looking villains, the end. Yeah, that was pretty much the whole season. It just enjoyable non the less though, the fights were really cool, the stakes were high, and the writing was definitely back to ATLA/Season 1 levels, but again, the plot was just ehhhh.

Grade: B

Season 4 - Bland season that existed just to tie up overarching plot points and bring an end to the story. Villain was plain, war was was irrelevant, side characters were boring, also, Korra still utterly fucking useless. Shit season to end shit show, also Korrasami was top cringe and was a horrid repeat of Aang/Katara, which also came out of nowhere and to this day people hate...yeah, just, ehhh all around.

Grade: C

Agreed, I can't fucking believe that such a worthless character got to be part of the last shot of the Avatar franchise and is second billed in the wikipedia page.

Fuck, Bryan's waifufaggotry she should have been an equalist spy. It would give her some decent characterization and it would get rid of most of the love triangle bullshit that ruined the second half of S1.

The series would have vastly improved if Mako had killed Asami and stolen her bike back in episode 4.

Thing is that Bolin's part of the love triangle died completely after episode 5, and then he spent the following seasons fucking ice princesses, mover stars and rich airbenders.

The Makorrasami stuff was dragged on from episode 7 until the finale. And it just made Mako and Korra look like huge assholes for completely forgetting about Asami while they started fucking with their eyes.

While another problem was that Asami had no purpose in the team other than her daddy issues and her relationship with Mako. She reeks of last minute rewrites.

if Katara had been male and found a magic girl hidden in a glacier everyone would have been expecting that from episode one. The only reason you don't see it is because the stereotypical personality roles were reversed, Katara was the brash iron-willed one and Aang was more flighty and manic pixie.

I'm actually upset people say this except for the season finale.
While Mako was indecisive, the reason he ignored Asami for the most part was because Korra was in legit danger. She was kidnapped or some shit. Yet people were so hurt because he didn't pay attention to Asami.
Because the first thing you do when a friend is kidnapped is start to make out with your girlfriend.

In terms of what, ratings? The show has four seasons of top notch animation, and Nick didn't mandate any changes to the script. Who cares about TV ratings? Legend of Korra's production value is the one good thing going for it - they had JK Simmons as a main character and Zuckerberg doing the music FFS

>>90614812
Agreed. She's a tan girl.

But seriously, the way the show handled Kuvira is the reason I loathe season 4. She had such potential, and her arguments were steamrolling the "hero's" arguments, but they ignored the ideological conflict and just made her a mustache twirling Death Star Mech driver in the end. Beyond lazy - and all the more infuriating because of the potential.

>>90615668
>Yet people hate Mako.
I don't think anyone hates him anymore after S3 and S4.

Now everyone that isn't a yurifag or a tumblrite hates Asami for realizing how much of a worthless character she was all along.

>>90615733
Yeah Kuvira was making good points so they just hit the "Hitler" button.

>>90614843
I think you give too much credit to season 1 and not enough to season 3 - though I probably think this because I hate the ending of s1 so much, and enjoy the ending of s3. Endings matter a lot.

They didn't even had a reason to hate him in season 2. He was the victim of Korra's abuse.

It's jarring how every early trailer and promotional material for Book 1 only shows Korra, Mako, Bolin (and Tenzin in some cases) when Asami is "supposed" to also be part of the main character team.

No, it wasn't but that dosn't tell the whole story.

If where going to be honest about TLOK, we need to understand it was a rushed product. It' was only supposed to be a one season mini-series but the networks ordered another three seasons. This lead to them stretching the show too thin. Bryke ran out of ideas and just started making up dumb shit.

sfdebris, a really insightful Star Trek reviewer has a lot of good points about why the show fails(not unwatchable, but could have been better), and it mostly has to do with her immature character.

>served no purpose in the fourth book except to watch her only living parent die because Bryke didn't have the balls to kill off a character we'd actually care and to be a love interest

is now the second most important in the fucking series purely due to her status as a love interest. She has NOTHING else going for her because the writers refused to give her any attention that didn't revolve around who she was dating or if they could make her cry. Who cares about characters like Tenzin, Lin or Jinora who underwent huge changes during the series? Asami's dating a woman!!! Give her a fucking medal!!!!

In retrospect I feel a lot less harshly about the show.
If you got the full picture, it's a pretty uneven product and there's a lot of missed potential. But it's still overall an entertaining experience.
When it was good, it was real good.

Hell, I even came around on the finale, because frankly even that pandering lgbt ending is way better than the shit show that is the last couple of minutes of Season 1.

I didn't really like makorra but I hate how a horribly terribly bland pairing is more popular and well liked than a bland one just because it involves people of the same gender-

But you have a big huge fat point here.

>>90616556
It's not good, don't get your hopes up.

>>90616484
Are you seriously telling me that there was anything to their relationship?
You are really wearing those rose tinted glasses.
Because the entirety of Makorra is based on the idea that two people are completely incapable to communicate or seeing something from a different perspective than their own. It was a relationship only in the broadest sense of the word, marking some generic checklist of romance scenes off and facilitating more pointless, weak drama.

I don't expect Korrasami to be better, because it's still the same writer, but this revisionism is baffling.

>>90614080
So then the fellow said something on the lines of "Anon, I've been thinking we shouldn't kill _all_ the niggers, we could spay the better looking sows and rape them."
What could I do? I killed him. And then I killed his family. And then I killed his friends. Damn those SJWs undermining Christian civilization, making me kill people instead of running the corporation I built with honest toil and brilliant invention!"

>>90616525
>And the lack of relationship drama
Tell that to the fujos in the Voltron threads

>>90616639
The upside to Makorra was that both of their issues actually affected their relationship, and they weren't afraid to call each other out when one of them fucked up. It didn't work out because the writers didn't sweep their flaws under the rug because of true love.

I'm expecting any conflict between Korra and Asami to be 100% Korra's fault because Asami's only visible flaw was being passive aggressive and even that stopped being a thing after book 1.

Tumblr was pretty mixed about the show and was gearing up to hate book 4 until Korrasami happened. Now you HAVE to watch the show, but you can skip books 1 and 2, it's not like they were important to one half of their dumb ship's character development or anything like that.

The last episode of Season 4 is terrible. I don't care as much about the lesbian wank as I do about freaking Prince Wu.

>Wu: I'm gonna abandon my responsibility as Crown Prince and instill democracy upon a heavily divided and war torn nation that has no experience with this form of governance, A capital that had a massive communist revolt a year ago, and many states that just enjoyed peace and security under a dictator, all without doing anything to assist with this process as I follow a fruitless career because its what makes ME happy

I can't tell if you're being serious or not.

But seriously, overthrowing an autocracy and installing a democracy and then just assuming that the democratic process will make everything better is a fuck awful idea. Democracy doesn't inherently bring stability, it's the other way around, stability and rising quality of life will eventually result in democracy. Like, look at Chile, Taiwan and South Korea, all of which were former dictatorships which ended up being democracies with a strong economy.

If you just throw out a dictator and install a democratically elected leader without installing proper framework, working infrastructure and high education levels beforehand it ends in a clusterfuck.

>>90618093
>look at chile
Very bad example, Pinochet ruined the economy of the country and brought it decades back.

It's true tho that democracy doesn't inherently bring stability to a country, but thinking that any dictatorship will be better is foolish. The most important thing, in both systems, is the ability of the leader(s) to act and develop their country

If you just throw out a dictator and install a democratically elected leader without installing proper framework, working infrastructure and high education levels beforehand it ends in a clusterfuck.
Once again a dictator can very well do fuck all and take all the wealth for him and his buddies, that's what happens in most cases, your examples are no rule

>>90614843

This probably explains dictatorships better than anything else I've seen.

The major issue here is that the Earth Kingdom literally just went through a civil war (which Kuvira won) and by overthrowing the victor then immediately going 'well let's just put a democracy in there and now everything is fine' is super naive. Nothing is stopping all the fragmented regions that Kuvira united to split off again and cause another civil war, there isn't some sort of occupying power that's rebuilding infrastructure.
Not to mention all the soldiers who got paid by the old government who are going to turn to banditry and crime, see Russian Mafiya (founded by ex-Red Army), the Serbian Mafia (former Yugoslav) and the Freikorps (ex-German WW1 soldiers).

I guess you could say that the nu-airbenders could help but there's not enough of them to cover the whole country. Ideally Korra would be here to make sure everything is okay but apparently Asami is more important. It's like if Aang fucked off with Katara once the war was over instead of staying around to make sure everything is fine.

>>90619666
Maybe Zuko, Tenzin and Raiko will find another puppet to rule the EK on their behalf like they wanted Wu to be.

The problem with Makorra was that they took crazy stupid shortcuts to get them together thus making sure that nobody felt any involvement in their relationship.
Then they proceeded to give them no chemistry or charm whatsoever and were surprised by the fact that nobody liked them.

As far as I can tell Korrasami will be the same thing without a sausage.

So fuck it. But anybody who wistfully remembers the the good old Makorra days, can go fuck themselves. Because they didn't exist.
Be my guest, shit on Korrasami to your hearts content. But don't act like there was anything good about Makorra.

First of all, whenver there is relationship drama Asami just turns into a sad background character, so all she has to do is be sad in the background until Korra calms down.

Korrasami wasn't the cause of the problem, but one of it's many symptoms.
Retrospectively it was a mere WTF moment out of nowhere and it was just shitty subtext to boot. If you just pinpoint it on that, you are just trying to push an agenda.

>>90620081
This. Their relationship had neither weight nor chemistry.


Let's take Star vs. for example. Star just recently confessed to Marco at the end of Season 2. They had two entire seasons of character development and interaction in order to make me believe they could develop a crush.

Korra confessed to Mako after knowing him for 4 episodes. Not only did that fail to prevent the love triangle drama, it also failed to feel genuine. They didn't interact enough for me to believe they love each other. They tried to cram that into a single season and failed miserably, which made them backpedal in Season 2 when they realized they had absolutely no compatibility when all they've done is argue with each other.

>>90620081
The entire group felt out of sync.
Gaang had at least a comradie thing going on, but when it comes to Korra and the others? Nothing expect for maybe Bolin.

>>90621121
The main problem there was that there was nothing really keeping them together after B1, very much unlike for the Gaang. THAT problem can at least partially be blamed on Nick execs.

Are we talking about a 1:1 conversion of there situations, where Korra is Aang's age and vice versa?

Having the Water tribes wiped out instead of the Air Temples would be a major difference. Blood Bending wouldn't be a thing by the time the next avatar is around, greatly improving there chances against Amon (who might not even be evil if it didn't exist).

Aang would have to learn water bending from the swamp tribe, which could be good if done right. At the very least it would be a far more interesting environment to start in than Republic city was, IMO. Republic city should have been introduced in either the second or third season, starting in the city founded by the previous avatar was stupid. It made it so they were constantly comparing themselves to there previous life, which goes against the point of the avatar. The avatar is supposed to grow and become a unique individual, by constantly reminding them of there past they cannot move forward.

But Korra in Aang situation would be even better than the original series. Azula vs Korra would be cool to see, and Zuko and Korra would have a very interesting dynamic where they'd fight far more often than Aang and he did.

Katara would also probably have more of a rivalry with Korra in there group, assuming some small portion of the water tribes survived/they were born in the swamp tribe.

They didn't.
They later joined forces with SA and SS. You could argue that it was actually Hitler who defeated them, since some of their leaders were purged during the Night of the Long Knifes, such as Röhm.

And Nazis didn't exactly came to power through elections. Like I said, they tried it 4 times within 1 year and 4 months with increasingly bend rules and in the end the ballot looked like this.
And yes, there was only one choice. Oh gee, I wonder how the result will be.

why not?

>>90621794
There would have been no water benders to create it. The swamp tribe preferred plant bending.

And the only people who could be blood benders would be them and potentially any kids Korra had.

>>90621875
>There would have been no water benders to create it
you forget that they also tried to genocide the water tribe and Hama managed to escape anyway. If i were to put Korra back in time, it would probably be by the time the water tribe started being attacked by Azulon (after air temples genocide). THEN she gets frozen, and they found her there after 100 years. But still, >>90621764 would happen anyway and Korra would die.

>>90621534
>they didn't
You're playing with words. Freikorps did not succeed in their rebellion, and it was the republic which defeated them. It's a fact

>>90621947
Eh, this time around if they had attacked the water tribes first they would have likely been more successful in there attempts, especially since they want to kill any potential avatar at all costs.

At the time for the water tribe, they had no reason to believe they were a bigger threat than the earth kingdoms like Ba Sing Se, who have military might that's not much lower than theirs (or at least, could defend for a hundred years without falling).

And I was working under the assumption that it would be a 1:1 conversion (instead of the air temples being destroyed, the water tribes would be) and she'd be known as the 'Last Water Bender' or something.

So is the Earth Kingdom like the size of China or some shit because there is no way in fuck a continent as big as Asia can have so little culture in it.

I think that Bolin and Mako had legit reasons to want to be around Korra.

Before meeting her they were just street rats trying to become rich, with her they started hanging out with not only Kung Fu Action Jesus but with a bunch of world leaders.

Asami on the other hand shouldn't want anything to do with the ex that cucked her and her new gf.

>>90620797
They wished it would happen, they didn't know anything, and everyone along with them was certain it wasn't going to happen because "the children cant take it".

>>90623997
I have to say Mako should probably have been left behind after book 2. He has a job he needs to take care of and isn't dating Korra anymore.

Bolin seemingly doesn't do much in the way of work and likes Korra as a close friend. He has the free time and if offered i think he would travel around with her. After the mover star thing, i doubt he even really needs money anymore.

Asami should have been dropped after book 1, she has no ties to the Krew after breaking up with Mako and she is supposedly head of Sato Industries from then onwards, you'd expect her to do some work rebuilding it's reputation and it's new technologies.

>>90620081
Heck, for as cliche as Katara and Aang were. They ahd 3 books worth of character. They had soem semblance of chimestry unlike Mako and Korra.

>>90617073
Yeah, but his entire character growth throughout the season was him becoming a better leader. He gets humiliated by Kuvira, wises up, and then starts leading properly. He keep the evacuations calm, and everyone commented about how mature he seems to have gotten.

Then NOPE, he's gonna be a singer because democracy Just Works and he had that funny joke about him singing to Badgermoles.

If they'd had all his build-up about him not even wanting the crown, or shown more instances of him singing, that'd be one thing, but that decision counteracts ALL of his growth the previous season.

>>90624554
I think that it'd be less that Asami hangs around the Krew but that the Krew goes to her.

Season 1 was just as good as the standards set by TLA 2 and 3. Like TLA 1, season 1 of Korra still needed fleshing out, more character development, and world building.

Too bad the world it built after season 1 was full of pandering, massive plot holes, and character "development" that took everything you liked about the characters that was introduced in season 1 and shit them out to be replaced by caricatures of their worst attributes.

Mako was the only character in the show that progressed in a positive way and made the show in any way tolerable

So based on that map

The Water Tribe would be ice caps.

The Fire Kingdom would vary the equatorial region would have jungles where as the more northern area would be a desert due to the horse latitude logic

The air mountains would be taigas

The Earth kingdom would have a jungle by its equatorial area, then two deserts, the northern part would be temperate forest like North America or Europe for example while the southern part would be desert.

>hurr durr close the portals
Besides that.

>>90628259
1- not open the second portal (she could literally avoid EVERYTHING by not going to the spirit world)
2- not keep the portals open
3- keep helping people in RC in S03 for more than two weeks instead of saying they have to 'deal with it'
4- not try to capture Zaheer and the other exbendables with only her group of teenagers (call for the authorities instead)
5- not disappear for months in S04 without telling anyone
6- not being completely alienated from the situation of the earth nation-- the nation she spent 6 months within
7- actually have a good reason to stop Kuvira instead of just "they told me to"
8- don't go full lesbo in the end; stick around and HELP PEOPLE


I don't care if Korra made one or two stupid mistakes, the fact is that she is never around afterwards to help people.

>>90628207

White Lotus should shoulder some of the blame. Keeping an Avatar isolated is a dumb idea. Traveling the world and understanding the cultures they're supposed to be mediating for is a crucial part of an Avatar's training.

>>90627942

Then why were the most enjoyable parts of the show the ones where she doesn't appear?

This. Bryke is worse than Richard Spencer.

>>90614915
I still can't believe Asami went from Bryke considering her an Equalist traitor at first, to dropping that, and making her love-interest of Korra, and with that, the second most important character of the Korra gang. It shows how last minute and unplanned all of this was.

They weren't.

Wan is the fucked up foundation for the buildup to the shit of season 2's second half.

>>90614006
You're right. But that doesn't mean it still wasn't mediocre/bad.

>>90628801
Asami going double agent Equalist on Korra and her crew would be more interesting than canon Asami. At least her having doubts over benders due to spending time with them, changing sides, and falling for Korra despite her racist upbringing would show some character development. I think I missed that most in LoK that ATLA had: the side-by-side development of characters from opposing sides.

>>90614129
>Season 1 was good up until the end.

God that ending sucked worse than anything else that happened in the season.

Yea OK maybe Amon didn't pan out as epicly as hoped, but at least he (and his brother) had an amazing send-off.

So now that the series has shown that they'll do murder-suicide, they've primed viewers for thinking "Holy shit, if they'll do that, maybe Korra won't get her bending back?"

Which is an AMAZING PREMISE FOR THE REST OF THE SERIES TO WORK FROM. Korra, who had all the elements except air at her fingertips from the time she was a toddler, now stuck with only Air and seemingly locked away from the other elements! Surely she'll now go with her friends on an epic quest to find a way to re-learn the elements. A callback to Aang's path with new potential, let's go!

But wait! What's Korra doing at the edge of this cliff, staring down into the rock-laden sea? Holy shit, is she contemplating suicide? We literally just saw a murder-suicide, this isn't out of the question, and Korra's had her sense of self stripped away... Korra no ,you're stronger than this, you can find a way!

I disagree. Nobody actually disliked the idea of Korrasami up until the finale made it canon. Korrasami was actually one of the more popular ships on this board for a VERY long time, since Book 1. People aren't uncomfortable with it, they're pissed off that Bryke has, in their incompetence, forced them to realize that their favorite ship is actually pretty unexciting in practice and their idealized versions of Korra and Asami (mocha sexual dinosaur and sultry stealth dom, respectively,) will never actually be a thing outside of tumblr fanart and rule 34. The reality of the characters is that both of them are incredibly awkward at romance, one of them is especially retarded at it, and probably neither of them even know what cunnilingus is.

Of all Bryke's narrative failures, this is their most monumental stunt; they took the concept of a delicious brown /fit/ girl hooking up with a bicurious 5'10 bombshell, and against all odds, SOMEHOW managed to make it boring.

>Season 2: Wan got it wrong. The spirit portals shouldn't have been closed and that spirits and humans need to get along together. Korra intends to fix this, believing opening the portals was the correct thing to do in the end. The audience is expected to believe the spirits will play a larger role in LoK, as they are now able to travel to the real world.

>Season 4, the spirit vines fuels a weapon of destruction. The spirits, who have segregated from humanity and pretty much formed their own country within a country, don't bother to help humanity. In fact, they ditch Korra and tell her and humans to an extent, that they're on their own solving this SPIRITUAL problem.

What the hell was the point of season 2? You think the spirits would play a huge part in season 4, due to the spirit vines, but nope. They even had a scene where a character specifically points out the spirits have returned. The people are expected to be happy that? Why would anyone be care about that?

Why would they follow her when they have no reason to considering that the brothers just wanted to make money and create a life for themselves and Asami is stuck trying to rebuild her company? Why would Korra have to relearn the elements? Zuko lost his flame but one sunny afternoon with some dragons and he's back on track. You don't need a grand quest for something you already know how to do and it would retread old ground with unnecessary characters who have no stake in the journey.

No: it's NOT OPENING the portals, the ones her uncle """manipulated her""" into opening. The only reason he was able to do that is because she decided to go to the spirit world for no fucking reason.

Housing, for starters. Then mediate conflict with spirits. Then try for more than two fucking weeks how to solve the vine situation.

>She IS the "authority". She's the fucking Avatar.
What? seriously... what? authority of who? what the fuck are you even talking about. She needed the fucking police; perhaps the goddamn army there to take them down, and decided to go in herself.

>w0t is PTSD
something that you can deal with in a mature manner without disappearing for six months without telling anyone and making your entire family worried.

>w0t is PTSD
you don't get retarded with PTSD, she wasn't even aware of what Kuvira was doing. She doesn't even read the newspaper.

>Why stop a ruthless dictator at all
she didn't even know Kuvira was a dictator. She didn't even know what exactly Kuvira was up to or why.

>>90629916

- The Aang asspull was literally "Wrapping things up in a neat little bow for the sake of closing off a season because you didn't know you'd get more"

Tarrlokk killing himself and his brother was the messy conclusion to a lifetime of familial strife and bad decisions. It wasn't perfect, nothing about LoK is, but it was sensible from the character's emotional view and from the metatextual view of what sort of statements the series might be able to make.

- Again with the caveat that nothing about LoK is perfect, and with the additional caveat that this is all now hypothetical territory seeing as the series went the way it did:

>Why would they follow her when they have no reason to considering that the brothers just wanted to make money and create a life for themselves and Asami is stuck trying to rebuild her company
A globe-hopping adventure is much easier to go about in the more tech advanced setting of LoK vs the journey of Aang and Co., which maks it even easier for the Brothers to seek their fortunes elsewhere and for Asami to come along to rebuild her company's connections. This is ignoring that they (again, imperfectly executed but who gives a shit) are now friends with with certified Chosen One and might just want to help her out.

>Why would Korra have to relearn the elements?
Aside from re-seeking a part of her very being that she's had since childhood, and continuing mastery of the one element shes stuck with and still doesn't have a good grasp of, she's the Avatar fated to be there for the world for its safety and balance. She'll need the other elements again, because there would surely be another threat.

>Zuko
Not the Avatar, and his character arc was tied to his family and self-worth issues, not his powers. He did partake in an epic journey, spanning all three seasons, to undergo his growth.

She didn't forget her powers, Amon blocked them with bloodbending. You do need an epic quest to figure out how to circumvent a block on your formerly innate ability to access your supernatural powers. It harkens back to Aang's need to master all the elements for his mission, but is still and uncharted territory for all involved. More than enough to do an entire series from.

The "unnecessary characters" are her friends and still have the means and self-interests/iwn arcs to go with Korra.

Contrary to popular believe, tumblr isn't a hivemind. There's criticism toward Korrasami for pretty much the same reasons usually posted on /co/ but most tumblrites just moved on besides the autistic yurifags so it seems everyone loves Korrasami there

There should be a list of required episode watching to understand seasons 1 and 2, so you can understand 3 and 4 because theres so many shit episodes. But korra is cute.

>>90614129
woah a reasonable opinion about LoK on /co/ what the fuck

>>90640014
Yeah, despite of /pol/ being triggered beacuse MUH BLACK WOMYN, Korra had some pretty good character designs, it's just that the characters are bad.

>The original Avatar had seasons consisting of 20-21 episodes, 61 episodes in total, all devoted to one story
>The Legend of Korra had seasons consisting of 12-14 episodes, 52 episodes in total, and each season told a different story
Korra is an utter mess. Each season's story comes off as rushed. Each climactic battle is more underwhelming than the last. The entire thing was just poorly handled from start to finish, and makes for a terrible follow-up to the original.

>>90639845
There are two kinds of korrasami shippers:

yurifags: which only care about the fact that it's two hot girls making out and having sex. Those are the ones that were happy about the pairing being canon in /co/

SJWs: I don't really like using the term, but basically people that believe that anyone that isn't a straight, white and male deserves a medal. Those are the ones that praise LoK's ending and you are more likely to find in tumblr.

Korra is unstable and doesn't deserve a relationship

I remember the villain of the second season being boring, but Zaheer and his team were the shit. Kuvira wasn't nearly as good as Zaheer but wasn't as bad as Unalaq. And the couple of episodes with Wan were good. I wish they made the romance between Korra and Asami more obvious. When Korra wants to fuck a dude she's like "oh hey I wanna fuck you my man" but when she's with a chick it's like "we're really good friends" and then a few weeks later some writer's like "that means they wanna fuck".

I think most of those SJWs moved on too for another big crusade on children animation not watched by actual children. In fact, most tumblrites are into SJW for being trendy and having an excuse to being elitist, the latter is pretty much the same shit with /a/ and powerlevels. The real SJWs praise the show on HuffPost and similar shitholes and also once in a while when there are news about the upcoming comic but the yurifags are the ones still sperging over Korrasami, except they use social justice for justifying their fetishes. What's up with the insane believe of tumblr being socially progressive for real? They love k-dramas and shoujoshit for Christ's sake
