There were a couple of lose ends (what happens with Asami, just how Amon was able to remove people's bending with bloodbending) but they aren't too major and could easily be resolved next season. | ||

I'm not talking about the physical aspect, which is what Aang had to do by seeking out his teachers. I was talking more about going into the Spirit World, which was covered briefly in each of the books but not too much. | ||

I don't see the whole part about how Amon was able to remove people's bending with blood bending as a minor loose end... it was the whole reason why he was so formidable... I wish they would have explained it better | ||

Lots of action, couple of plot twists, and sappy romance. Perfect recipe. Not saying that I liked everything, but I don't think it was terrible. Finale did everything it was supposed to; only thing was that the suicide thing by Tarrlok wasn't as ambiguous as it should have been if they want to bring Amon back in s2. Only that doesn't really make sense since the original series was pretty enjoyable for me and I wasn't exactly a kid when I watched that either. So I thought it was awkward and poor because I thought it was awkward and poor, not because I'm not a kid. | ||

I wish they would have explained it better That's nit picking, people can shoot fire out of their hands and lift rocks essentially physically and the avatar was able to bend peoples will so that they can no longer bend themselves. So him stopping people from using their abilities is too much? But magical light up eyes + super powers isn't. It's kind of one of those things you just accept. He bends blood, you have blood in your brain fill in random blanks and suspend disbelief. It's a cartoon more under the fantasy genre not sci-fi. | ||

When i herd Amon was blocking peoples bending using bloodbending, i knew that it left the possibility for some kind of solution unlike Aangs kind. So when Korra finally connected with Aang, i thought it was just going to leave a cliff hanger. And next season she would have to get her bending back with Aangs help, by unblocking chukras and stuff. Besides the Tarlock part, at the end. I'm not sure how i really felt about that ending. If there is a season two, it'll be weird cause it will be like a whole new adventure. | ||

People aren't just going to go back to how things were, season 2 is very easy to guess, shes going to try to resolve the tension the season was building up. She wasn't just fighting amnon but a large part of the city as well. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + http://www.justin.tv/livetoons2/b/322423458 haters gonna hate, but i honestly enjoyed that episode. i do agree there was some pacing problems with the season (too fast), but overall i think it was pretty well done. lots of plot twists and "greyness"-- ambiguously good/evil people. i feel like if they'd doubled the number of episodes and added 2-3 filler episodes there it would have been better. a chance to see much more or republic city, more references and homages to the original series, things like that. the story itself i felt was pretty good overall. still, this episode is in the shadow of the TLA's first season finale, which i think was called the battle for the northern water tribe or something like that. now that i think about it, it was kind of similar in a way... hmm, but man that season finale was epic. it's interesting that all the problems stemmed from one source though. aang should've castrated yakone when he had the chance. never underestimate the power of a man with a... yeah. i have a feeling that amon survived the explosion, though he probably does have a scar now. tarrlock... idunno. | ||

She wasn't just fighting amnon but a large part of the city as well. In that regard, I would have made a few slight changes. Instead of having Amon finally reveal himself as a bender when he was thrown into the sea, he could have just used his water bending to soften the impact and survive. He would have been presumed dead, and he would have been a martyr which would keep the flame alive in the Equalists. If I remember correctly, though, the writers intended to wrap his arc up with the season, so my alternative complicates that. Still, with a bit more time, Amon could have still returned to Tarlokk to flee with his brother and wind up the same way. I'm sure it's possible to invent a good reason why he might go back for Tarlokk even in this alternative where he wasn't shamed and exposed.

That would be an interesting storyline in the next season. Or give people the ability to bend different elements ? Whoa, that's a really cool idea. It's something new, and it allows Korra to leave her mark by inventing something never before seen just like Aang did, and it would draw a satisfactory conclusion to the conflict with the equalists. I really like it. | ||

I really loved the finale. I was not expecting that ending with Amon and Tarlok, but I really liked that the writers did that. The only thing that I'm curious about is what the second season will consist of. Sure, the city still has a lot of unrest, but I hope there will be some sort of antagonist. I was really happy when Aang came. When she was sitting on that cliff, I was begging Aang to come and finally get Korra in touch with her spiritual side (something that I've really missed from the original series). I thought it was perfect the way they had Korra and Aang interact, but they only interacted for like 30 seconds. I wish they could have at least had Aang on screen for 2 or 3 minutes, and talk with Korra a little more. I feel like there is a lot of advice he could give her, and it would allow the writers to give the viewers some closure with Aang, seeing his wisdom after he developed into an adult. Instead he just popped in, fixed Korra, and popped out. I was a little disappointed they didn't spend some more time together and communicate a lot, like Aang did with Roku. EDIT: Oh yeah, and fuck the writers putting Korra and Mako together. Mako is being a complete dick to Asami, and Korra is totally fine with it. Does anyone remember how much fun Korra and Bolin had together on their little "dates?" I really wish that the writers would've fleshed that out, as I think it'd be much more interesting than seeing her with dull-as-hell Mako. | ||

His plans fell through, he decided to try and reconcile with his brother, then his brother decided to kill them both. It was a neat little wrap-up for the villains of the season to just make them brothers and have them kill themselves but I didn't really get either character. | ||
