Avatar: A Lenda de Korra

I enjoyed the previous series, "The Last Airbender," and I had been checking every month or so to see if the new "Legend of Korra" had been released yet. Yesterday I realized that five or six episodes had been released so I watched them all while typing up some notes for school. I have to say, the first couple of episodes I was pretty worried. Many of the characters seemed very harsh and unlikable. Yet, as I got to know them better, I really started to like them and enjoy the show. "Legend of Korra" is lacking the hilarity which made "Airbender" so fun to watch, yet it is replaced with more menace, intrigue, and (I want to use the adjective "page-turning") excitement. The bits of humor that are present are perfect and I think they have captured a good balance. I'm really hooked. 9/10. The one missing star is in case the show takes a turn for the worse.

LOK takes place 70 years after the TLA, with a new Avatar emerging in an ever changing world. Let me start by saying this is not the TLA part 2, while it exists in the same world, this is a brand new story filled with new characters. The show is very good in that sense, as while keeps the charm and environment of the TLA, it makes sure to change the world so we don't have a complete rehash of the same story. While the characters are good, especially the development of Korea herself as it becomes a true joy watching her change into a respectable Avatar. With the story Itself (with the exception of 1 or 2 things) is excellent and truly shows a new take on the Avatar. This is a series that you must watch if you liked TLA, and admittedly season 1 isn't where the series shines the brightest, but the coming seasons show why this is worthy of the Avatar name.

Zaheer had so much potential and i think he should had more screen time. He could have been a much more terrefying villain. I do recommend to people who like avatar in general to watch this. It does pay off. The second and the last seasons are my least favorite. The first and the third were my favorite. A must watch for avatar lovers.

Yes, The Legend of Korra is not as great as ATLA because this show is something different than ATLA. The Story , Characters, Action sequences, political elements were very good and enjoyable. Some Plot twists were Predictable , some were unexpected. The Seasons 1-3 were very enjoyable but the final season was kind of a mixed bag. Overall the show is WORTH WATCHING!

Avatar: The Legend of Korra is by no means as good as the phenomenal The Last Airbender, but you can tell that the team behind it had a lot on their minds regarding the Avatar universe. And that may be its biggest flaw.

What I mean is that all the elements that made its predecessor so great is still in here, but at the same time it's trying to be its own thing which ends up making it feel all over the place with world-building, character arcs and romance plots either scattered across all four seasons or hastily concluded without feeling fully developed.

The first season is in my opinion the most successful at blending it all together with Korra coming to Republic City to discover a colorful crowd amongst the many inhabitants and what they do in their leisure time and the way the higher-ups run the city. And a dark side of a seemingly peaceful place for all which include the chilling Amon on top of a rebellion.

So, while there is a promising premise for season two about the spiritual side of being the Avatar which leads to an epic conclusion and an interesting result, it is here it all starts to jumble together with various subplots which makes it feel disjointed and rushed.

In the character department we have Korra as the main character, a young woman with a temper who sadly often comes off as arrogant and bratty. She learn throughout the series, but is also a victim of the messy writing. The characters are a mixed bag overall.

Animation is still top-notch, and when the series keeps its focus, we get an expanding look into the world of the Avatar and the people attached to her/him.
