We're 5 episodes in and they are already going on hiatus? And here I was thinking that I'd have something AWESOME to watch during, and beyond the Great Pony Drought. Why do they need to stop? And for how long? Someone please clarify this. I hope this isn't true. Where are you even getting this from? I looked all over, including his twitter, and I see no signs of a hiatus. Link or calm down. | ||

Okay, it looked like a case of people panicking about not seeing Korra on TV guide this week and somebody likely trolling me by linking me to LeSean's facebook page which I couldn't actually navigate. The post in question, which I am currently unable to verify, is, "This'll suffice, during the break in new Korra episodes ( This weeks episode will be the last of new eps for some reason)." | ||

It's not like Pokemon where every season they get 8 badges, 5 new pokemon and a new 10 year old girl to travel with. Changing the formula is nice. We already know how Earth, Water and Fire gets taught. We spent many episodes watching it happen to Aang. I also theorise that a second season would be titled something like "Spirit" since it's already been so heavily hinted that Korra is out of touch with her spiritual duties. No spirit world, no talks with previous Avatars and not even one instance of Avatar Mode. I wonder if there's also a possibility that Korra will learn chi blocking and mixes it in with her combat? Also, thought Korra appears to have "mastered" 3 of the 4 bending arts, her skills aren't of a high master level. Advanced bending like lightning or metal hasn't come from her, and a lot of her techniques are small combat techniques. Large scale and non-combat techniques have almost been non-existant. I wonder if that's just building to the "bigger fights" where she'll use them, or whether this links in to a personal issue with Korra? (character development~) aang never learned the lightning or metal bending either. I think it jsut shows she is far from a master. (which makes sense otherwise it would be insta-kill all baddies and gg). BTW: is Katara the only one from "the old gang" whose still alive? | ||

There was that time when Korra brought up Katarra and he just flipped. I get what you and he are saying though; that instance was for comedic effect moreso than actual ohsnapshitsgonnagodown. Hands down though, he has the best reactions to every little thing. Example being Meelo using stuff as a toilet bowl in the latest episode. | ||

It seems like every fight instead of waiting to see which bender comes out with a better move or more force behind their attack (like the first show when it was bender vs bender....) we have a situation where these little minions just dance around and then punch punch fight over. It just kinds of ruins the fights in my opinion as there is no strategy involved its just "will this minion take some ice to the face easy peasy or will the director decide that this minion will be the one to do some triple flip kick into dibilitating punches and disable the bender. I straight up don't like the non- bender vs bender fight scenes that right now seem to be the bread and butter of this show. Well to be fair, the benders haven't really encountered specialized anti-benders before and are only trained to fight other benders. To put it in DOTA terms, these grunts are basically anti-carries that dodge all of the bender's skill shots and destroy then up close. If anything, these new technological weapons like gas grenades and elictricity batons make the fighting more interesting than the overplayed fire vs water vs earth. Also on a side note, I find it funny how the electric batons that the anti-benders use are very likley powered by the lightning benders at the power plant. Screw electricity! It opresses us! | ||

I don't like the anti-benders vs bender fights right now, but there's a lot of potential. It's still early on and Korra hasn't completely figured out a way to deal with them. It was the same in "The Last Avatar." One of my favorite fight scenes of the whole show was Suki against Ty Lee. I can only imagine how better it would be with Korra mastering Air Bending. | ||
