What are some of the best story/character arc about redemption?

Is there any religious redemption stories by the way?Like a journey movie but with spiritual tones.

Zuko's redemption happened way too late in the series for it to be believable. He should have joined the Gaang during the attack on Ba Sing Se

>>79077837
season 2 was doing it so well but the show went to shit on season 3. they should have gotten zuko on the team much sooner instead of wasting time with fucking painted ladies and dance parties

Then the three act structure wouldn't work.
It's formally perfect man.

>>79078578
We should have had 4 books. Season 3 was a rushed mess.

>>79078634


4 books?

Korra has 4, but the second book is the worst.

Also Aang has 3, but they are perfect.

except they arent. far from it. specially book 3

still a great show

>>79078634
>>79079110
Book 3 only had 5 plot episodes, the first attack on the fire nation and the climax of the story. The rest of the episodes are filler. Another season would have been stupid.

>>79077961
Hell naw. It's great.
>season 1: villain with some likability
>season 2: down on his luck anti-hero who we finally truly see
>season 3: working to be a better him, for good

>>79079157
blame the direction the season took, not the fact that they ran out of things to make. hell, zuko's storyline on the shitty finale ended with a fucking cliffhanger and they had to make crappy comics to wrap it up

>>79078634
Fuck no. Ending was somewhat weak with the deus ex machina but another season was unnecessary. They just needed to tweak the ending a bit.

>>79079157
I agree with this. I think they should feature less filler and focus on the main plot. Though i won't deny the bloodbender storyline (which later become important) and the beach episode is very well done.

Iroh is the tightest shit ever, amazing character and even made me cry at one point.

I rewatched it recently and it's not even funny how much better it is than Korra. I barely even remember truly liking anything from Korra aside from the Wan episodes. If Korra had been more like the Wan stuff I would have loved it.

>>79079157
>>79079295
>anime kiddos disliking "filler" aka character development and finishing multiple character arcs
get off my board

>>79079461
I don't dislike filler if it's good but if they made another season they wouldn't have had anything but filler. And it would have been badly paced because they were waiting for the comet, so they only had two months to tell the whole story and 3 seasons was the right amount of time, in my opinion which is correct. Also the katara and aang romance subplot was told perfectly and stretching it out for another season would have been forced if they were still in relationship limbo or having second thoughts.

>>79079295
>When they fuck that Chad's shit up at the end of the beach episode

Still makes me laugh

>>79079546
I was mainly disagreeing with >>79079295 that they should have had more "plot" episodes. I agree that 3 seasons was perfect

For a film rated very high (9.3 on IMDB), it rarely got spoken especially around here.

>>79079282
yeah, tweak the season 3 ending by making the day of black sun the finale so we can then have an entire season of zuko and the gaang. and its even more infuriating that they wasted the short time zuko had with a gaang in stupid mini trips with zuko + another character with none of the comfy travelling around with the whole group. now that I think of it the show's pacing starts falling apart when they get to the eastern air temple.

>>79079452
wan's story was absolute shit. to this day I cant understand how people who dislike LoK liked avatar wan.

Is Avatar the greatest animated show ever, bros? I think so.

>>79079681
It is if you're a weeaboo. If you want an actual white european cartoon watch the Batman animated series.

season 2 > season 1 > season 3

season 1 is really underrated. people often forget how much great world building it had. plus lets not forget the siege of the north, the storm and the blue spirit

aang finally chosing to let go of his earthly attachments in favor of the spiritual path for the sake of the greater good would have been awesome character development. it would represent him maturing and accepting his duty to the world above his personal feelings. we got a fucking lion turtle ex machina instead

I could go on...

Peridot redemption was initially handled pretty well relative to my expectations, which admittedly were low.

>>79079452
Completely agree. Although Wan left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths, I enjoyed those episodes the most out of LoK... on tier with the Aang episodes

>>79079805
season 3 had the painted lady lady and worst of all - nightmares and daydreams.

>>79079857
nightmares and daydreams was comfy and it showed aang stressing out, which built his character. serpents pass (time race against pregnancy) and the great divide were so generic if they removed them from the show no one would notice.

>>79079789
>male child and teenage girl, creepy
Aren't Katara only like two or three years older from Aang? Its not that rare for older girls to date slightly younger boys.

Unless you count that 100 years being frozen in iceberg, than yeah its a bit awkward.

>>79079922
2 at most.

And introducing the Drill if you forget. Reunion with Suki and Jet trying to bond/recruiting Zuko.

>>79079922
it's not the necessarily the slight age difference. it would be okay if aang was 15 and katara 16

it's the fact that aangs balls havent dropped yet while katara has tits and periods

>>79079789
>there was much more of a dramatic romantic spark between zuko and katara
Was there? Aside from the dead moms they were a bit more water and oil to me. Zuko is abrasive and head strong and seems to enjoy dry sarcasm Katara is sensitive and honest not at all his type. Aside from the whole STARCROSSED LOVERS meme I don't see them getting along in the long run.

To be fair, Aang's voice has changed a fair bit by the end of the series.

>aang's fucked up voice in the Guru when he speaks to Sokka

Is Toph best girl?

>>79079789
>there was much more of a dramatic romantic spark between zuko and katara
I just don't understand this. I just finished watching the series, and already knowing about the whole "Zutara" craze, I expected some kind of tension. I got nothing. The show was clearly gearing toward a romance between Aang and Katara since the beginning. I honestly felt that it was the best developed relationship in the show, next to Zuko and Iroh's.

>>79080000
Looking at this kind of relationship through your modern perspective is ignorant desu. There are like less than a million people in the avatar universe and aang is the strongest motherfucker in the world. Even if katara didn't have sexual feelings for aang it's not absurd for her to try to love him for ambitious and social reasons.

protip senpai. The reason why the Zuko/Katara ship was popular was:
Zuko= the character most fangirls had a crush on

Katara: the character fangirls identified with the most

Simple as that.

>>79080168
Nah. You have to be willfully ignorant to not see why people shipped it, and it wasn't just the self insert thing, though that is a big factor. People, mostly women, love rival dynamics in romantic pairings (see: romances like Han and Leia, etc) and with Zuko the obvious trajectory was him becoming friends with the Gaang, so everyone knew it wasn't going to be an enemy thing forever.

I think another factor was that people saw Zuko as more on Katara's level of maturity than Aang. Just design alone does that, since Katara and Zuko are both almost full grown and Aang still looks like a kid.

What got stupid about the whole thing was that they refused to see that Zutara probably wasn't happening when they continued to give Katara romantic moments with Aang. Even I'll admit that there was a fire in the IDEA of Katara and Zuko as a romantic couple, but it was never actually sparked or hinted at in the show despite them picking at scraps to "prove" it.

Was Avatar the first fandom when the fans decided that shipping meant their favorite ship must be canon or it's worthless and screamed at everyone about it? That's a common thing now but it wasn't in the early days of shipping.

I thought of it more like a moral journey.

His transformation from that to a selfless, humble leader is a big redemption.

Honestly, I expected Katara and Zuko to get together because Zuko is objectively better in the eyes of practically every woman. He's tall, he's got a full head of hair, he's not a doormat, he's not like 3 years younger than her....there's a reason that Katara/Zuko is so popular among those tumblrinas.

I know it's a cartoon, but if the show was more "realistic", then Katara would not have ended up with the timid undersized bald kid.

and also how metal bending was treated like ACTUAL metal bending like mercury when it was shown that it was actually only bending the dirty present on metal and only Toph could do it since she was a blind and she was the only one who could see the fragments of dirty in the metal and this is why not even Bumi the 120 year old strongest earth bender couldn't do it

also isn't it implied in the episode cave of two lovers that earth benders learned bending from watching the moles, firebender from watching dragons, water benders from watching the moon and airbenders from watching the flying bison then why in the korra's series it is stated that bending came from a magic gift from big giant lion turtles

Because korra fucked up a lot of the lore and everyone knows it. Some retards try to defend it but the only good thing about korra is the animation in the fight scenes. The writing is trash.

>>79081042
But in the episode The King Of Omashu, it is shown in a flashback with Aang abd young Bumi that Bumi's motto was "Think of the possibilities" and then the whole episode resolves around trying to figure out not the most obvious way to solve Bumi's riddles, yet he never even tried to bend metal even when he was captured and imprisioned in a metal cage by the fire nation

uh

The way they did that was such an enormous mistake. I was fine with Katara helping but after all that build up, Zuko should have triumphed in the end during that fight.

you arent.
lava was depicted more than once to be part of firebending in ATLA. dont try to bring science into this because hurr durr lava is just melted rock, if you try to be scientific the 4 element divison is retarded. lava is thematically more related to fire than it is to earth, period. Should have remained that way. Then again let's just pretend legend of korra never happened.

iirc isn't it the avatar abilities and not the basic bending that were granted by some giant lion turtle?

>>79081141
because karma and eastern philosophy. He ultimately let katara make her own choice though and it turns out letting him suffer was far harsher than ending his life. good end

>>79081141
He transcended those attachments and understood his importance in the bigger picture. He was an all around cool guy.
That's why korra always came up as a bloody cunt

>>79081114
I don't really get why Katara was added to Zuko's final fight at all. There was nothing that suggested that would happen in the narrative and she has nothing to do with their sibling tension. Why didn't she have a fight of her own?

>>79081108
>never even tried to bend metal even when he was captured and imprisioned in a metal cage by the fire nation

He never tried because he didn't want to. He waited for the perfect moment to strike which was during the eclipse.

>>79081215
>>79081141
what really bugged me about that episode is how they wasted the blood bending bit on the guy that turned out not to be the one rather than saving it for the actual confrontation climax

>>79081287
but he is Bumi, he always preaches thinking out of the box, I imagine he would be the first one to try and bend mental just for shits and giggles
and It is pretty fuckign clearly shown that Toph was the only one who could do it because she could "see" the earth particles in the metal cage when she was kidnapped

>>79081114
Zuko wrecked Azula, though.

She got him because she attacked dubass Katara

If the south and nothern water tribes didn't talk for years and the southerne water tribe consists about of 30 people does it mean they're inbreds

>>79081251
>I don't really get why Katara was added to Zuko's final fight at all.

I haven't seen this show in a long, long time (I was like 11 or 12 when it was on tv, which might be why I liked it so much), but I got the sense that the writers weren't 100% committed to the Aang/Katara ending. If they wanted to go Katara/Zuko, then it made sense for her to be there.

>>79081390
>consists about of 30 people does it mean they're inbreds
because all the men went to war and all the waterbenders got taken away. there was no reproduction going on when the water warriors left.

>>79081457
poor sokka had to fuck those seal penguins things

>>79081393
I don't know if I'm crazy but wasn't there one of those stupid episodes with pop ups included, and one of those pop ups said that they actually considered Zutara but Kataang won in the end? It stands out in my head because I think they actually used the fucking ship names in the pop ups.

But even if this was true, they clearly knew at that point which pair they were going with long before they finalized that episode. It was the final fucking episode, after all. So that definitely wasn't the reason.

Soaring Ted was probably the best part of this anime.

>I don't really get why Katara was added to Zuko's final fight at all
to troll zutarians until the very ending.

remember that the creators acknowledged and mocked zutara directly in the ember island players

katara didn't have anyone to fight with and it would be too much of a clusterfuck to have toph, sokka and suki (remember SUKI???? the korra writtes sure don't) AND KATARA to fight the zeppelins

>>79081562
let's just all agree that the whole finale was very poorly executed

>>79081251
Pretty sure they were just reinforcing the fact that Azula was super super skilled and facing her alone even while she was insane would be suicide.

>>79081562
They could have had Katara being a badass with her water bending and taking out a bunch of people on her own to demonstrate her mastery over the series. That would be better than making her the third wheel in Zuko and Azula's fight and then having that third wheel actually take over the conflict.

>>79081251
Zuko was never gonna win a fight against Azula alone, everyone knows this

>>79081593
I don't know
I can see why people would want to see zukko just bitch slapping azula but her being outsmarted by katara was a better ending at least in my taste

They got the bending power from the lion turtles. But learning the proper technique of how to bend is something they got from the dragons, moles, air bison, and moon for each respective element. Its literally explained in that episode too (even if its not explicitly).

If you just want to handwave it further, the Wan storyline happen thousands of years before Aang/Korra. Its only natural certain things turn into myth or truth gets twisted along the way.

To be quite honest i kinda expecting they will go with that. After a fire lord and blood benders, its only natural the strongest physical challenge is an evil avatar. Its a bit boring, and Unalaq turning into a giant evil monster is a pretty silly idea. Should just give him bending powers instead.

>>79082393
>lol wrestling references xD Epic

Fuck.

Now I have to rewatch TLA.

>>79082429
Only whenever he used his swords. When he firebended he always jobbed pathetically.

>>79079805
This is a joke right?

>>79082447
The Beach is a pointless terrible episode where instead of developing Zuko's relationship with his sister and issues with his father we get relationship drama, spaghetti spilling and Mai and Ty Lee whining about their first world problems.

I know this thread is about ATLA, but I've got a question about Korra too. Is it actually that much worse than ATLA, or did I just not like it because I was no longer the target audience?

ATLA came out when I was roughly the same age as Aang is in the show, but by the time Korra came out I was already 18, which I think is older than Korra and the others were supposed to be. And the show just didn't really appeal to me in the same way. The only scene that really "hit" me was that final scene where Korra enters the avatar state.

Hopefully some younger anons, who were still children when Korra came out (I'm already 21 so I'm kind of an oldfag lol) can explain it to me.

>>79082429
>Shit, they even drew him significantly less beefed up toward the end.

This makes sense, though. When he was a prince, he enjoyed an excellent, nutritious diet. But when you're a fugitive, obviously you don't eat quite as well.

>>79079805

Hating The Great Divide is a meme I'll never get. Yes, it's one of the weakest episodes, but it's not any worse than stuff like The Painted Lady and Nightmares & Daydreams.

>>79082618
Nightmares and Daydreams has a couple of funny moments and some cool animation.

Great Divide just... exists. It's so bland and pointless.

>>79082609
>Is it actually that much worse than ATLA

It really isn't. ATLA nostalgiafags had too high expectations and they will go full autism mode and nitpick it to death to make it the worst show ever.

>>79082618
They take a super basic moral that's told in nearly every story ever, "don't discriminate," and dumb it down to the lowest possible level and end it with the avatar making up a stupid story that makes the two parties come to their senses and everything is magically fixed. It would have been better if they came back to those warring tribes and the avatars fake story made everything worse because he lied. It's just pointless.

>>79077837
Amen to OP.

>>79082669
>>79082758

Fair enough. I'm just speaking from the perspective of a man who was unlucky enough to become an adult right when Korra's first season came out, so I had adult expectations combined with nostalgia. It has nothing to do with the main character being brown (I'm mixed race myself) or even a woman (my twin sister is so much like Korra that I liked the character right away), but I just didn't have the same feeling for the show that I did for ATLA.

I stopped after season 1, but would you guys recommend the rest of it for a guy who's already 21? Or is it just a really good kid's show and nothing more?

>>79082609
Watching it around 18 too. I think the nostalgia with TLA is actually what makes it appealing to me since it continue with the world building and the avatar saga. But at the same time you just can't help comparing it with the old show and think that certain aspect from either the old series is better than the new one and vice versa.

But overall i don't hate it at all. Though i don't like S2 very much, and i agree with most anons said here about the giant mecha in S4 finale. But its mainly because it feels so underwhelming even when compared to S1 or S3 finale.

>>79082758
>>79082794
>Animation makes up for shit-tier writing, world building and characterisation.

Yeah nah.

>>79082758
>>79082794
Ah, the power of plot.
When Korra gets tossed against a solid surface, she gets incapacitated. When someone else is tossed, they're back up in no time.

Negative effects only work on her.

>>79082891
I never thought I'd ever see a MC with reverse plot armor.

>>79082846

You should finish it. Season 3 is pretty good.

I watched both shows for the first time at age 30 and I enjoyed some parts of Korra more than ATLA.

>>79081063
Because Korra is shit and abandons all the themes/lore of the original.

The second episode has like, 12 Lightning-benders casually, after Iroh presses for 2 seasons on how one needs emotional stability for it.

>>79082846
>I stopped after season 1, but would you guys recommend the rest of it for a guy who's already 21? Or is it just a really good kid's show and nothing more?

Do not watch it. Just stay with what you've already seen.

>>79082909
Game of Thrones did that all the time with their bad guys especially with Ramsay and Dany

>>79082909
>I never thought I'd ever see a MC with reverse plot armor.
That's one thing that the show had going for it, just when you think it couldn't get stupider it somehow does.

>>79082804
I didn't enjoy ATLA as much especially season 1 but it at least felt epic whereas LOK was sporadic and other than Varrick had no characters on the same level. There's nothing obviously connecting the LOK seasons so they aren't necessary for each other.

>>79082846
No just stop. Season 2 is complete garbage, and don't believe the meme that Season 3 is great. It's better than the shit that preceded it, but it's still not good.

Bending has always been about knowledge and way of thinking rather than about powerlevels.

The knowledge of how to shoot lighting got passed down so more people were capable of doing it, what the fuck is so far fetched about that?

>>79082846
>I stopped after season 1, but would you guys recommend the rest of it for a guy who's already 21?
if you are into action scenes and cool animated fights there's plenty ahead for you to appreciate. there's however very little enjoyable plot to it and the avatar universe gets butchered a lot further. up to you

It's funny how Korra has an 8.6 rating on imdb with all the episodes except the clip show rated 8.2 or higher. If it truly was so terrible, the ratings would reflect that, and don't give me any shit about imdb ratings not meaning anything.

>>79083518

>>79083395
No, the only good part about the Spirit World in Korra was Iroh and even then he was brought down by helping an idiot girl with the mentality of a child which is fitting, what with her child form at the time deal with problems she herself created.

>>79083488
game of thrones is very highly rated yet the show went downhill after season 1 and turned into complete shit after season 3. imdb ratings dont mean anything.

>>79083518
They add a couple more things. The Spirit world we see in LoK is more colorful with the spirits being affected by negative/positive emotion being brought up again.

>>79083598

That's one opinion out of millions. A lot of people still love the show.

>>79083488
LoK has a female protagonist and pushes a feminist agenda, critics wouldn't dare rate it low.

>>79083488
ATLA has a higher rating on IMDB than Lawrence of Arabia.

People flocked to Twilight and read the books. Same with Fifty Shades of Grey.
Also things like the 3.0 score IGN gave the video game God Hand.
Ratings aren't too reliable. Discourse and speaking about the material with others has more weight when the person can tell you what they specifically liked about the product up against what others have found problems with the product.

>>79083555
>Not according to some people's headcanons over what they saw in the only episode where Aang went into the Spirit World.

This is the problem right here. People going full autism mode over what they mean is the only thing correct and when the show does something different it's automatically the worst thing ever.

>>79083605
>They add a couple more things.
Well, of course. You cannot make a full-fledged spirit world just based on the meditating monkey, a giant wolf, a giant transforming panda and Koh's tree.

>>79083662
>ATLA has a higher rating on IMDB than Lawrence of Arabia.

Rightfully so.

>>79083488
It pains me to say this, because I'm normally the one calling out /tv/ for being contrarian faggots, but popular opinion ≠ quality. Korra is """objectively""" shit.

>>79083556
>problems she herself created
along with those around her. Give the blame to all involved. The whole cast was terrible and had the mentality of children. Her spirit changed because she meditated in while the others waltzed in in physical forms.

>>79083658
>pushes a feminist agenda
It never really did that, Korra was treated the exact same way she would if she were a guy by all other characters.

If anything ATLA was the one that pushed a feminist agenda with two different girl power episodes.

>>79083697

>my opinion is the objective fact

Oh, okay then. I hate the show now.

>>79083666
They completely changed the tone and feel of the spirit world, stop being so obtuse. In LoK it felt more like Korra in Wonderland than a spiritual place..

Water tribe has terrible history and territory.

Earth with its China-like history and expansiveness allows for variety. Fire Nation and its Japan and Thailand vibe give it a rich culture and locale. And the Air nation is everywhere so they can pick and choose. Aside from looks, Water tribe lost big time with this setting.

Are you retarded? Earth is clearly China, Fire is Japan, Air is Tibetan, water is Eskimo. How did you not figure this out? Even their geography and clothing resembles those cultures.

>>79084302
I still think its bullshit people lived that long, that time period you're looking at dying in your 60s like Aang did.

>>79084339

It's a fantasy world. Bumi was 112 and Kyoshi lived until 250, but that was mostly because the writers fucked up.

>>79084339
Not necessarily. The average life expectancy in ancient times was dragged down quite a bit by high infant mortality rates. If you survived early infancy and childhood, you were quite likely to live to 60-80 years old. Especially if you were rich and famous, like Katara was.

>>79084339
What about Bumi and 80 year old Pakku 70 years before Korra?

Aaron Ehasz himself said he wanted to explore a subtle romance between Zuko and Katara if they had time. Their relationship was actually very dynamic in season 3, and there was a lot of potential there if they wanted to got that route.

Plus Kataang was sorta creepy.

Katara and Aang spent 2 months together traveling the world. History and familiarity are important. Aang is also the strongest and most important person in the world. That gets the vaginal fluids flowing a lot more than zuko's looks.

>>79084600
How is that more realistic? Because he's older and better looking then Aang. Because they had a few moments of solidarity?

The entire series actually spanned over a year.

If it did there would be no Zuko of which to speak of, because perfect boys like him are too good for this world

>>79084544

I never really liked her, she was kind of ugly, boring and she didn't seem capable of bringing out Zuko's best traits.

Not to mention that they have already broken up three times.

That's a story to tell.

Aang, kid who just woke up from sleep and only knew airbending, overcomes a volcano.

>>79084793
I don't want to put you down or anything, but they show a map several times in the show and it's painfully obvious. The giant landmass is earth, the chain of islands off their coastline is fire, the air nomads live in the southern mountains, the water tribes live in the polar regions....and to top it all off, they clearly resemble the real-life people from those regions.

>I just had them all put down as Asian.

Well, they are all Asian. Just different kinds of Asian.

If Zuko and Katara got together, she would've behaved like a mother to him (one of her negaive traits) and zuko would find it weirdly hot.

Yeah Aang was a kid but you could tell he grew into a man who didn't take shit from anyone, you don't want to be in a relationship with someone thats like your mother.

You'd be surprised. Women openly want to be with someone who is like their fathers, but there is a fairly large group of men who want "motherly" wives. I don't pretend to understand the psychology behind it, but it is a very real thing.

there's a big difference between "motherly" and "like your mother"

>>79085099
The thing is for Zuko it would be pretty fucked up since he has so many issues to go into a relationship with someone that's like his mother. Compare May and Ursula and there's a hint that Zukos not into the mothering type.

>>79085160
But Katara never actually mothered him. In fact, I think that was a big basis for the Zutara "argument". He was the only character she didn't mother, which suggested a different and less Freudian dynamic in any romance they had.

Though this is Katara, she probably would have acted like his mom eventually.

>The thing is for Zuko it would be pretty fucked up since he has so many issues to go into a relationship with someone that's like his mother.

Those issues are what makes him more likely to go into a relationship with a motherly woman. When I was a child, my mother broke my ribs on 4 different occasions and my left arm once*. And guess what? I'm attracted to older white women with freckles. The same thing happens to women attracted to their fathers.

*She always cried afterwards and told the doctors they were "baseball injuries", the bitch.

>>79085231
Didn't she dump Zuko because he was a fire bender? She was pretty racist.
