Loved the new episodes! Those villains seem immensely interesting. Seems to me the "combustion girl" just might be
Spoiler:
related to Azula perhaps?

Jet.

I dunno, I think Kai reminds me of Aang, sans moral compass.
Or even just Aang when he, Sokka, and Toph were scamming people in the Fire Nation.

Yeah, I'm intrigued by Kai as well and wonder why he steals from people. Does he just gain satisfaction from it, or was he raised that way?

I think it was slightly revealed when Mako acknowledged "he knows what he is up to, bc he use to do it"

Alright I'm jumping in here with eyes half closed so I don't see any spoilers. I always do things the legal way...but I don't have cable. So I've been eagerly anticipating Book 3 to appear on Amazon with no such luck. Has anyone seen anything to indicate when it might show up? I might be blind...but I didn't see it available on Nick's site either.

a friend of mine compared the new storyline and the existence of this criminal organization of uber-benders, to something like Naruto, and the Akatsuki.

I cannot wait to find out more about their motivations.

I am also enjoying the departure from Republic City and OF COURSE, the return of Lord Zuko.

When Korra first started, and Katara was the only one from the old gang seen, I worried that we wouldnt be able to catch up with the rest of the group. Then having seen Aang through flashbacks, and now Zuko...I hope Zuko is still a badass, and age hasnt slowed his fight.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I caught episodes 4-6 on youtube, spanish dub leak. and all ill say is that I cannot wait to see them when they are officially released.

To be fair tho, they did release 3 episodes back to back for their premiere.

But I hear you tho, I can't wait for more. With these new baddies, you know things are gonna escalate really high, really fast. I love me some action.

Has anyone noticed Kai, the Legend of Korra character, is spelled almost the same way as Karai? Only without the R and one of the A's.

Yes, a bit different, but definitely similar. His character intrigues me.

I'm ridiculously entertained by the fact that Henry Rollins has joined the voice cast this season.

It sounds more like a water tribe/nation name. Katara was originally going to be called Kia.

Kia? That was my second car. seriously tho.

Im glad they didnt go with it; Katara just 'sounds' cooler, and has a nicer rhythm to it.

OH, AND...I do not like Kai, characters like him never get any sympathy from me. They lie, steal, manipulate, and whats worse, take advantage of good natured people for their ends alone. I can understand stealing out of necessity, heck even Aladdin did it, and who hates Aladdin? but after Kai was taken in by Team Avatar, and brought out of poverty into the Upper Echelon of high society, you repay them by taking off? Bad form. And...

Spoiler:
he deserves whats coming to him.

I watched the first season and while I enjoyed it for the most part, I wasn't blown away by it.

A couple of things that irked me:

The love triangle felt forced as hell and unecessary

A unique ability that the Avatar had, which was a pretty big deal, was effectively trivialized in the last episode.
Spoiler:
"Oh hey Korra, here's your bending back ALL BETTER NOW LOL"


I haven't even bothered to buy the next season.
