Korra has a much more agressive fighting style in comparison to Aang
(She's a natural firebender while he's a natural airbender). I wonder how that play into it?
>>
>>91220500
Which is a skill she was granted by Aang, and he's the one who removed her block in the first place. If we're having the two fight, he can remove her bending and then there would be nothing she can do about it without Aang's spirit there for backup.
>>
>>91220550
Well Aang always seemed to excel against people with aggressive fighting styles so probably wouldn't be that big a problem for him. I think a bigger factor is that aang's avatar state is going to be vastly superior to korra's.

>>91220500

If it was Aang's skill then he wouldn't need to access the Avatar State to use it. His eyes glow against Ozai and against Amon's dad when he uses it which means he's calling on the Avatar State.
He used it to help her, but it is not restricted to him.

Also, like most Avatar threads nowadays, this thread is shit and the OP made this with clear intentions.

>> by the end of the series she is wiser, restrained, humble and a totally different character from what she started
At the end of the series she picks a fight when the president already surrendered and fought in the city to the point where the enemy destroyed a large portion of it and then in an attempt to save the enemy she created another spirit portal which furthers makes it so real estate is uninhabitable for humans.
Zaheer still has the moral high ground so she's not wiser than the terrorist that tried to kill her.
She's not restrained because she still fought with Kuvira.
She's humbled, not humble. She's humbled meanwhile every single other character gets to remain the same and be awesome with no consequences except for Tenzin and her.

She is the most interesting character on the show, but that's still comparing shit to other shit except her shit matters and doesn't smell as bad as the rest. And you would not except someone who was raised with the idea of Aang in mind to be harsh, impulsive, and arrogant especially when Aang's wife was her teacher and she grew up with her parents in the general vicinity. She goes through an arc, kicking and screaming, and it is not something she benefits from since the world moves on without her contributing positively of her own volition but rather being a passenger in her own show meanwhile the chuckle fucks around her do the actual change.

Everyone wanted to fight for their city, regardless of what the president did
They did their best to evacuate the city
Complaining about real estate there is some next level grasping at straws shit which I won't even bother to touch

>She's not restrained because she still fought with Kuvira.
There was no other way, and in the end she reasoned with her younger self would have probably been out for a fight

>. She goes through an arc, kicking and screaming, and it is not something she benefits from since the world moves on without her contributing positively of her own volition but rather being a passenger in her own show meanwhile the chuckle fucks around her do the actual change.
Kicking and screaming? That makes no sense? She choose her own paths to follow, she's nto dragged around by someone else
Tenzin said it right in the show how she contributed to the world for the better and how she has done more in a few years than other avatars achieved in their life time, with the proper examples to back it up

Also, quite a few of the characters besides her and Tenzin get to change

Korra could just slap some metal on him and he'd be helpless, so I guess she'd win.

The spirits have a whole world to themselves and have no need for resources. Now a whole borough of Republic City is in ruins/overrun with huge vines. She made a choice to continue the fight right then and there and that decision is leading into the conflict in the upcoming comic.

Reasoning was still something her younger self did. She reached out to Unalaq and Zaheer too, though since it's an action/adventure show the antagonist will not be swayed.

I probably would have done the divide and rule thing more, which the fire nation seemed really fucking bad at.

If a character can defeat your stronger character then that character is serious business. So you have the strongest character lose that way you can elevate the other character.

It can't be tied to spirituality because Aang had trouble connecting to his past lives at will throughout Airbender yet his Avatar State was strong. And it can't be tied to spirituality because spiritual people can mediate into the spirit world at will and not just in certain situations.

Also Bryke are hacks and we can't have nice things.

Korra was a completely incompetent Avatar that earned nothing and had to be given everything.

Hi E.R.
>>
>>91219911
At the end of their series? Aang would eaily beat Korra, he is not only stronger on a personal level his avatar state also 1, works and 2, is much stronger than Korras.
>>
I don't understand the people that defend korra. Are you guys real human beings? That shit was a travesty. I'm not even talking about the lesbian ending. I'm not talking about the awkward narrative because "It's modern now! not like ancient Aang days!" Everything about it was a straight downgrade from ATLA. And the worst part about it? It killed the avatar forever. We'll never see another avatar series. And even after Korra, I'd still love to see a new one. Just to see some earthbenders deal with Korra as their only spiritual guide and rando citizens talk shit about the avatar korra, fucking up their livelihood.

And Airbending was the best element, in standard form. Not involving all the extra powers afforded by the elements (i.e. Fire - Electricity, Earth - Lava, Water - healing), Air was the strongest of the four elements because you could never hit him and it had an answer for every element. Basically shown when noone could hit Aang for 3 whole seasons till he got fucked by lightning by getting caught off guard by zuko the snake. How the fuck is korra even supposed to touch him?

>>91225511
I just can't imagine a worse avatar series after Korra. Korra literally got EVERYTHING wrong. I'm sure the characters have some level of self-awareness (indicative in Amon) that they'll be able to note what a huge shitshow Korra is and all the shit she's fucked. If anything, it'll be a whole season dedicated to shitting on Korra. And some of the stuff is left rather open ended. What happened to Ba Sing Se? Whats up with the fire nation now? What's going to happen to Zaheer?

Honestly, I'd prefer a universe reset after Korra.

Technology advanced to fast, and the ending of Korra really fucked it up with the giant mecha in particular being wayyy out of the genre and just pretty badly fitting into the overall universe.

Then again after Korra I have no confidence in Bryke to do anything, what made ATLA great really wasn't them and it showed hard in Korra. Fuck it even began to show in Book 3, Book 2 being best Avatar ever was and depressingly ever will be.
>>
>>91225614
The thing is, LOK fucked up the entire lore and universe in general, not just itself. It's just not possible to fix that without MASSIVE retcon.

I'm also not as confident as >>91225717 seems to be that, say, Ehasz could do much better. A lot of what made ATLA great was a product of the 2000s, and I'm not sure it could really be replicated in the 2010s, or more like 2020s now.

The franchise needs to be forgotten. Perhaps something like it will come along someday.

>Just to see some earthbenders deal with Korra as their only spiritual guide and rando citizens talk shit about the avatar korra, fucking up their livelihood.
If it didn't happen for Aang then it wouldn't happen for Korra. The world was at war for 100 years and no one went up to Aang and blamed Roku or Aang.
And as for spiritual guide, that's what the people around you are for since they are living in the world that the current Avatar is currently residing in. For example, Luke didn't ask Obi-Wan's ghost what to do once a day every day, or Yoda's ghost. It was Luke decision based on what he experienced.

In the hypothetical next series that would come after LoK, yes the /co/ version would be everyone talks shit about Korra and the earthbender Avatar hates her and fixes everything by the end of each season.

>>91225801
>A lot of what made ATLA great was a product of the 2000s,
This isn't the original Deus Ex or Harry Potter. AtLA was a great story and there is always an environment for that.

I would put it down to:
-Technological change going far too fast
-the entire first avatar backstory. All of it was just well animated midichlorians
-the entire second season finale. The writers themselves admitted they didn't know what they were doing and in canon there is no real reason for any of the events to be happening

But that's just me, I am sure there are more
>>
>>91225836
It's actually really hard to describe if you're haven't specifically studied this type of stuff. There's an "innocence" throughout ATLA that isn't present in LOK, and isn't present in any modern cartoon I've seen either. And for the record, I first watched ATLA well after it ended, so it couldn't possibly be nostalgia talking there.

Maybe someone else can elaborate on what I'm trying and failing to specify here.

Aang would try to fight Korra, because (X PLOT DEVICE SAYS SO). Korra would talk him down. They'd have tea. Korra would win, via redefining her goal and accomplishing it.

That said, at the end of the series you have two masters-of-all-elements, one that's recently recovered from mercury poisoning and has put herself through a hellish recuperation process that basically amounts to FIGHT UNTIL YOU MOVE LIKE YOU SHOULD AGAIN, the other of which is 12. I'd still give it to Korra.

>>91228290
>That's not a realistic solution to every problem.
The person who wields the sword often determines who wields the pen. To overcome Zhao at the North Pole, Aang punched the Fire Nation navy under Zhao back with the help of the Ocean spirit. To overcome Azula and her suggestive Drill, Aang punched the supports down. To overcome the Fire Lord, Aang punched him until he could finger him.

This is an action adventure show for children. Punching needs to happen, it must. The Earth Avatar would not be fucked in the same way that Wan wasn't fucked nor the Avatar after Wan. You experience the world and get a solution from it. Aang get "get out of problem almost free" cards from the past Avatars but ultimately dismissed their idea for Ozai and found a way to keep being a pacifist. Aang didn't rely on their solutions to tell him what to do.
>>
>>91225801
>without a massive retcon
Just hop full force into the future and have characters admit that the 'Legend of Korra' might not be 100% truthful and nobody knows what really happened back then. The word 'Legend' is in the title and legends get changed or tweaked down the line after being retold or rewritten over and over.

Have a kid listening to the legends comment that the mech thing and giant drill in both series seemed to stupid to be real and the storyteller laugh and say they added that for more excitement.

Korra probably will too in the comics.

Korra did it in a way that you can't undo without a retcon. Or some asspulling which would be unprecedented even in Avatar

She essentially knew she was killing him b/c he never retreats or some shit. Her actions allowed Kyoshi to break their vassal state status

Really? Show's been done for 3 years and its barely talked about outside of occasional hate threads and porn. I doubt it has enough interest to generate "haters"

Which just goes to show you that Aang is the better person and Avatar. Even when he dies he can keep his powers and doesn't take so long to heal.

>>91229928
>What is up with autists bringing up some inconsequential fight that happened at the very beginning of the series like it means anything?
It's that weird part where you expect the person who had thirteen years to train in fighting with the ability to reshape the world around them losing to someone who needs to get in close to attack and only spent the amount of time Amon was working in the city to get people to want to overthrow their neighbors.

If she loses, then she's incompetent. If she wins, then the Equalists are not a threat. Of course if you have good writing then you can have the hero actually win and not end the conflict right there but LoK didn't have good writing and instead needed to have the main character lose all the time except for at the very end.
>>
>>91230008
>So did Aang, but he got it back.
No, he had his chi path blocked that was later pushed back into place, Korra DESTROYED the connection to all her previous lives and never got it back.

>Technology advanced to fast,
Nigga, in 70 years we went from horses being the primary mode of transportation to putting a man on the moon

Keeping in mind what technologies we see the Fire Nation/Mechanist have, it's easily believable that technology got to where it is.

>and the ending of Korra really fucked it up with the giant mecha in particular being wayyy out of the genre and just pretty badly fitting into the overall universe.
You can dislike it all you want but it fits fine.

I see. Where the hell is my Mecha suit?

That and I think the tech was out of the setting and it didn't really justify it. I imagine the thought process was 'Equalists must be a threat, they can only go toe to toe with benders if they have more advanced tech, so we need to advance tech a few year'.

Also the Fire nation had steam, which worked because FIRE nation. Those 70 years in our time were based off centuries of previous technological advances. In the show, centuries worth of tech was dumped into a few decades.

>it fits fine
If only saying it would make it true.

False, it took 100's of years after.

No, it was bad. NOT because lgbt pandering, but cause it came out of nowhere. It was so random, Bryke had to take it to twitter to tell what the fuck happened.

wow
Get over yourself, kid. It was shit.

>>91230608
Yep. There's a group of people who hate the show so much they derail every avatar thread they can find just to hate on TLOK. They can't accept that people like the show.

For the first year after the finale they were so autistic they had threads going nonstop every day regurgitating the same points and memes and shit.

>I see. Where the hell is my Mecha suit?
The same place your bending is. Nonexistent because we don't live in a science fantasy world where people can control the elements, build massive drills, and design tanks that can climb mountains and flip over.

>That and I think the tech was out of the setting and it didn't really justify it.
HOW

>I imagine the thought process was 'Equalists must be a threat, they can only go toe to toe with benders if they have more advanced tech, so we need to advance tech a few year'.
I'm sure that making the equalists more of a threat was part of it but in 70 years time the tech progression is fine.

>Also the Fire nation had steam, which worked because FIRE nation.
They had more than that

>Those 70 years in our time were based off centuries of previous technological advances. In the show, centuries worth of tech was dumped into a few decades.
Wrong.

>If only saying it would make it true.
It IS true

>I mean, refute me if you can. I'd love to be corrected here.
ATLA wouldn't exist without them. Many of the concepts, stories, characters, designs, world building, etc would not exist without them. They were involved in every single episode. They were writers, directors, executive producers on the show. They were involved in everything, helping shape it into what it is.

>ATLA was much, much more then Bryke, and it showed very much in Korra.
It really wasn't.
>>
>>91231291
The mecha was complete shit.
And ATLA would be too, without Ehasz.
>>
>>91230941
>I imagine the thought process was 'Equalists must be a threat, they can only go toe to toe with benders if they have more advanced tech, so we need to advance tech a few year'.
That's pretty much it. And yet the majority of threads didn't concentrate on this and instead praised how now bending is obsolete in their world as science and technology are moving beyond it and praised how the setting was being treated.

The Equalists should never have been a threat unless they had firearms and Nick isn't going to allow that.
>>
>>91230958
>False, it took 100's of years after.
False, horses were the primary mode of transport to in the early 1900s, and in 1969 men landed on the moon. 70 years.

>No, it was bad. NOT because lgbt pandering, but cause it came out of nowhere. It was so random, Bryke had to take it to twitter to tell what the fuck happened.

Hahaha no. That hack wanted Zutara
>>
>>91231571
>That hack wanted Zutara.
Zuko is the best character and we'd get even more porn, even if the pairing it didn't make sense as is in the show the way it was presented.

And the stupid giant mecha in season 4 was complete shit and so was Korra's Avatar State for not being able to damage it.
>>
>>91231571
He wanted Book 4 Zutara. Go educate yourself.
>>
>>91231417
Anon meant from the start of horses as transportation up to the 1960s. Why work backwards from that point when people have been making steps since that earlier point in history?
>>
>>91224487
Technically Aang was infinitely more in touch with his spiritual side over korra, and they retconned how the avatar state works by channeling past lives and instead it's just a power up from some lampray looking piece of shit.
Canonically I'd say because she cut off her past lives experiences and that she was weak spiritually, but in reality its because the original was an infinitely better series and much more well written.
>>
>>91228570
yeah, its so hard watching Korra when freaking Aang was grace incarnate

>It's that weird part where you expect the person who had thirteen years to train in fighting with the ability to reshape the world around them losing to someone who needs to get in close to attack

Nigga, did you miss the legion of elite earthbending soldiers getting taken down by a rich girl trained in a circus?

Did you miss how after the first encounter, Korra beat a shit ton of Equalists?

Did you miss how Aang had trouble with Jet, who is just a guy with swords and has to get close to attack?

Or how Aang tried to keep distance against elite archers instead of fighting them in melee range where they're weaker?

No, you're going to disproportionately bitch about some 15 second fight that happened in the first episode.
>>
>>91230757
>No, he had his chi path blocked that was later pushed back into place
No, the Avatar line was severed. They even directly showed the Avatar line disappearing like Korra.

>Korra DESTROYED the connection
No, Unalaq did. It's not like she burned all the past lives and said "I'm the only Avatar, you got to deal with it!"
>>
>>91226031
Aren't they already the same person?

Aang doesn't like to fight. He'll avoid it if he can. Korra would fight them, and for good reasons. They are different people but Aang had the mindset of run away and evade.
