Loved the last two episodes! What if this is all an elaborate scheme by Unalaq to get korra to reconnect with her spiritual side?

I highly doubt it. He's obviously extremely power hungry. You don't get your brother banished to gain power and years later decide "I'm going to help his daughter become a better avatar by fucking up her father's life even more and taking control of his new homeland too." >_>

Really I just don't think he understands the true extent of what Vaatu is, kind of how the original Avatar was, and is going to end up releasing him in his ignorance which leads to Korra needing to fix things. He probably was just planning on using the evil spirits to gain more power.

Maybe Unalaq thinks his spirit skills are so great that he can control Vaatu. And his plan will fail horribly, causing Korra to have to fix everything.

I have to say that Vaatu suffers a bit from the D3 villain syndrome, too much talking, self explanation, and reporting of progress to our heroes. It makes villains look so harmless.

Well in its defense, the story was told in a mythical tone

Kyoshi lived something like 230 years. That may have been a mistake on the writer's parts but people do live a long time in the Avatar world.


lol, one of my few gripes with AtLA is their chronology, where there are a few weird inconsistencies.

+ Show Spoiler [I guess this is sorta off topic] +

- When Koh talks to Aang in the Season 1 Finale (or maybe when Kuruk talks to him later? I forget), it's mentioned that Kuruk is from 8 or 900 years before Aang. But Aang is 112, Roku was < 100, and Kyoshi was 230, which adds up to way less than 800 years Maybe Koh was just forgetful, lol
- At the end of Zuko Alone, the Fire Sage says "Azulon, Fire Lord to our nation for twenty-three years." Ozai hasn't been Fire Lord for more than 10 years.

Meanwhile, it's been 112 years since the death of Roku, when Sozin was already reaaaally old (at least 60 or 70.) So Sozin lived to like 150? @___@


Also, re: the Fire Sages knowing about Harmonic Convergence: I thought about it, and I guess it's because Harmonic Convergence is really an astronomical event (alignment of the planets)... but maybe they don't know the full spiritual significance of it. On the other hand, the lead Fire Sage lady doesn't seem surprised when Korra talks about how she has to close the gates...

Yeah, I really liked how folklore-ish they made the two episodes, so that even though there were severe implications to the actions taken, it was very light-hearted and gave them excuses to use cliches.

Hooooooly crap those episodes were really amazing. On par with the best eps from the The Last Airbender, imo. Lots of stuff starting to come together and make sense, really excited for the rest of the series!

The fight animations in Korra continue to get more and more badass and beautiful, too. Big props to the art team behind this series, the visuals have definitely been the most striking part of this whole series.


there's actually two studios working on the series. all of the episodes in season 2 up until these last two episodes have been done by studio pierrot; whereas these episodes have been done by studio mir (the same studio that did last season's episodes). you can definitely notice a difference in quality between the two. someone from onion review noticed how studio pierrot's animation didn't even include blinking for its characters unless they were talking. but with studio mir there are so many little things going on that it really makes the eyes stick to the screen. so i really hope we get more episodes done by studio mir/


Ah, that explains the totally different feel. Thanks for the info!

This was the booster shot that LoK desperately, desperately needed. Great episodes!

Was this the first time we've seen anyone actually die right there on screen in any Avatar episode?

I was wanting so, so bad for the old lady at the temple to somehow be Azula. That would've been sick.

I still can't get over the disappointment that Amon wasn't cyborg Darthvader-esque Azula

...shit, I would have loved that hahaha

Sorry, I meant that to sound more sarcastic than it did xD. I meant to add something extra but I was in a hurry and didn't read it. In any case, I agree with you

Can we scrap this show and have Legend of Wan? He's kind of awesome.

So Unalaq is trying to release or use Vaatu to take over the world I think

I also love the part where it showed that wan couldnt finish balancing the world in his time, like how even after aang beat the firelord (the main baddie) there were still things needed to be done. (on another note what ever happened to mustache guy)

Loved the last three episodes. Especially the last two.

Kind of wish they didnt have that " Wade Jin, Jin Wade" Animation style. Though i guess artistically it was picked to give past and present a different look.

Though beyond that it was just SOO interesting especially for fans of TLA. You really had to know the TLA well to fully appreciated it.

Though it really sets up even the current plot for and epic finish. Season 1 of LoK started strong and finished weak. Hopefully this season will do the opposite.

Favorite episodes of this new avatar series hands down, such a contrast between how awesome the first avatar is as a character and korra <.<. Hope the show improves from here instead of going back to well normal.
