Where those all the comics? I hope he can break past the avatar world hes in. I LOVE that he is doing it but i woukd hate to see these skills wasted by not finding something similar. He is articulate and well reasoned opinions. His narration became substantially better since his first few eps on avatar. I want to keep watching him but dont know where he should go next.

Lin's title is "Chief of Police" but she is the nation's top law enforcement official and essentially the Republic City equivalent of the FBI Director. I think it's safe to assume that she'd been briefed on The Avatar and has the intuition to connect the dots about a powerful bender that just showed up from the South Pole to dole out street justice. There are also some implied scenes worth considering since we don't know how long Korra was in custody before meeting Lin: that morning the White Lotus discovered the Avatar is missing and would have alerted world leaders about a possible crisis, the officers that responded at the scene took the gang in for questioning and got a statement from the shopkeeper, and Tenzin was informed that the police had her in custody which is how he's able to interrupt the questioning. At that point, I think it would have been more confusing for Lin to not know whom Korra is.

little fun fact: Tenzin's sky bison is called Oogi. This is a reference to Sokka, who often exclaims that Aang's and Katara's love "is giving him the oogies". So basically, Tenzin named his sky bison after his parents' love, which is pretty sweet

Lin being aware of who Korra is kinda makes sense. She is Republic City's chief of police, it would stand to reason she has been briefed by the city council and/or the White Lotus as a precaution for her eventual arrival. Also, later seasons reveal Lin was part of the group that prevented Korra's abduction by the hands of Zaheer and the Red Lotus.

Also the cops didnt see her bend 3 elements, but there's plenty of witnesses that did. I don't think it's crazy to assume the cops interviewed them onscene after her arrest (actually even during the chase by like a rookie on the beat who's called in, they call in an airship), which is put into a report that is given to Lin before she goes into the interrogation.

It always pained me to see how much potential was lost in Korra. The main critique I'd have is the fact problems raised by villains seem to disappear once the villain is defeated, except Zaheer who undermines himself. Equalists are never heard of, civil war takes a chill pill and all of Kuvira armies are watching by the wayside how Avatar is taking a vacation with new gf. It makes it so either the villains never had a real point or, if they did, it makes it even worse with all real problems that led to villains rising just disappearing with said villains

Lin knew who Korra was because she knew about the red lotus trying to capture her as a child. She got a bunch of inside knowledge back then I'm assuming from the white lotus, tenzin, sokka, and Zuko. Also her note were blank because she learned how to keep records from Toph lol

Unfortunately an unlikely intended explanation during production. Bear in mind that Korra was only initially green lit for one season, got approval for one more part way through airing the first season, and got approval for the last 2 partway through the 2nd. Since the Red Lotus aren't involved, mentioned, or hinted at until that last block of 2 seasons, they almost certainly weren't conceived by the writers when they made episode 1.

One thing to note right away is that Korra is older than all of Tenzin's children. Which means Aang never got to see any of his grandchildren born. Which, idk, is kind of sad. Would have been nice if the eldest one was like a big sister type for Korra who had some memories of Aang and was more integrated into the cast as resident air bender.

i think this wouldve clashed with how much they want to build up tenzen as a character. he grows into the role of mentor which wouldve made a second mentor type character in the airbender faction more difficult to establish without having characters feel redundant. not to be misunderstood, im not the biggest fan of tenzen and would actually have preferred something like your suggestion over him as mentor figure. and korra herself already oozes big sis energy haha

Had a random realization, was the death of Aang the event that pushed Tenzin and Lin (stubbornly child-free) apart? The sudden realization of being the last one of your culture again, which pushed him to leave her eventually marry his wife and (pro)create the personal army of airbending kids he has? I bet I'm right. So it kinda makes sense the kids are younger than Korra.

I think a big issue I have with Korra is how much missed potential it has. Its opening episode is really good. The world is super interesting. The concepts presented are super interesting. The world evolved in a compelling way. The animation is gorgeous. That all makes it hurt more when it fumbles these concepts and gets stuck in side plots that aren't interesting involving characters that are annoying. Overall, it's a good show. It just has a big shadow it lives in and the pieces there to be so much better than it was.

You might be able to argue that Lin can tell Korra knows more than waterbending by the way she handles herself. Earthbending in particular is very physical, relying on stances and strong movements, which could subtly change the way someone generally walks and moves. It's probably a bit of a stretch, but fun to think about

The first thing about Sokka getting better at painting was something I've always thought. I never read the comics before but my "headcannon" is that Sokka went back to his master, the one who taught him swordsmanship and one of his lessons was to look at a scenery for like 2 seconds then paint the entire thing. I imagine that Sokka got so good at this that he just became an excellent painter.

I doubt she's talking about "power" in the way that DBZ does. I take it as her just meaning skilled. Though I could make the arguement there is a "strength" factor to bending. I mean just look at Katara's bending in episode one versus her fight with Hama under the full moon. The raw *amount* a person can bend may be considered their "strength."

Things I liked about Korra: At first I found Korra's more direct and action-focused way of handling things unappealing, but it pays back a great deal. In the last Airbender, the world needed an action focused Avatar, Aang was more spiritual and diplomatic, and that was a struggle for him. Korra is an action girl and her world needs a more diplomatic Avatar, which is a struggle for her. I think that contrast is nice. What I didn't like was the retcon of the origin of bending, and the power creep of seasons 2 and 4. Kuvira is an amazing villain, but the mecha is a tad silly. But I feel there're few if any redeemable moments in season 2. Very common opinion, I know.
@tournesol99
@tournesol99 4 місяці тому
While Aang was definitely too diplomatic, he did end up doing a lot of fighting. Whereas Korra does a lot of fighting, but often her companions handle the diplomacy. Which is fine, play to your strengths, but it feels like she develops a lot less in how she approaches challenges. I think the biggest change she experienced in her avatar duties was that she seemed to be less personally invested in the villains, more doing it for the good of others. While Season 2 is a mixed bag, the first few episodes are great with the whole civil war. Pivoting into the origins of the avatar, and a confusing contradictory yin/yang/god/satan motif by the end was the biggest disappointment in the franchise.

@@tutumazibuko2510 in ATLA it's established that the benders learn from the primal benders (the moon, the moles, the dragons, and the bisons) and the lion turtles have a previous form of bending (energy bending). In the story of Avatar Wan, the fact that the lion turtles give one of the four types of bending directly overrides the previous knowledge we have, it's a retcon.
@the_last_ballad

​@Hrorwulf except it's not really changing anything. In the flashbacks, people are just throwing the elements around. They manipulate the elements, but they don't have the bending disciplines yet, which they learn from the first benders. Which, to me, makes sense. Learning how to push and pull the tides from the moon and ocean is a lot more understandable if they are starting with the ability to manipulate water, rather than being nonbenders. After all, Yue, Toph, Aang, and the Sun Warriors all refer to their first benders as teachers, with Toph and the Sun warriors directly having their first benders as their bending masters. And energy bending is required to give or take away bending itself, the lion turtles are energy bending to bestow their elements upon humans... Maybe it's because I never _assumed_ the first benders gave the capacity for elemental manipulation(despite never being stated, and multiple refrences distinguishing manipulating an element and actually bending), but learning this didn't change anything about how I understood the Avatar world to work.
