I am currently at NYCC sitting in the room where the Korra panel will be in two hours. I'm taking as much video as I can. Hopefully, they'll announce some cool stuff.

Just a lot of sad goodbyes.
They showed a bunch of concept art, mostly Kuvira, and that was about it. And they aired the next episode, but I'm not gonna post spoilers.

Its funny how Korra's voice actress is actually hot. Usually voice actors for females in cartoons are ugly as sin when you see what they look like.

She's actually good looking. Shocking, I know.

Wow, they really delved deep into Korra's psyche! Even by Avatar standards, this was dripping with sophistication and masterfully intricate storytelling.

Loving the direction the show is taking.

You are a moron.

Anyway, another good episode. It was awesome to see Toph again.

Korra still acting bitchy and lashing out at Katara and Tenzin for helping her. What is with her attitude? Just because she's a wreck doesn't mean she should lash out. Katara was a much better female lead than Korra and you could see Katara was understanding.

Also Toph became a crazy witch doctor living in a cave in her old life? No wonder why her two daughters don't like each other, they had a mother who abandoned them instead of keeping the family together. Seriously, why would she be in a cave instead of with her daughters?

Why's Sokka the only one dead? It's not fair
Was it cuz he was so negative?

Well any ways, I hope this arc of Korra's doesn't take too much of our time.
I really want to get back to the other characters arcs, Bolin's in particular interests me the most right now.

I don't remember Katara getting poisoned, suffocated nearly to death then lose the ability to walk for 2 years while all her friends thrived in what she was supposed to do. "For helping her" except for the part where they didn't. All the development came from Korra herself and her internal mind struggle!

I'm glad you feel this way because it's a great sign of the episode's sophistication that it just flew over your brainless head.

Korra has always been an ungrateful jerk, and then she apologizes after to make herself "feel better" after lashing out at everyone trying to help her. If I were Mako I would dump her ass too.

I actually like Korra's character in the context of the show, but if she existed in real life with that kind of personality, hoo-boy, I don't want to think about it. She'd be a controlling girlfriend that would whip have her man whipped.

Ok there is no need for insults. While I agree with you the reason for Korra lashing out is due to her trauma she still should have not lashed out at those helping her.

Yeah but they're not really helping her. Tenzin actually makes it worse by bringing up Zaheer's point every time he talks to Korra!

Katara healed her body and gave her the ability to walk again. Korra's parents helped her with daily needs such as making her food and helping through out her day. That takes a lot of love and compassion to help someone so feeble. Also
Ignoring her problem will not make it go away or solve its self. You have to address the problem which is what she will be doing Toph I suspect.

"gave her the ability to walk" are you sure we were watching the same episode? Korra's own mental turmoil was what kept her from overcoming her PTSD, not some stupid magic water. This isn't The Dark Knight Rises where some Deus Ex Machina leg-armour repairs Korra, No, she herself was putting strain on her body by the devastating visions she kept seeing. It was only when she chose to ignore it herself and connect with her deeper feelings that she was able to walk again.

Ignoring the problem in this case, was actually a way of addressing it.

Katara is the one who instructed her to "close your eyes and imagine yourself walking" and Katara kept pushing her. so I do give Katara credit even if you choose not to.
