Yes, like all of the actual-having-lived-in-the-real-world dictators that came before her.

No woman would go from hugging a man and promising to get married to him, to a day later showing no emotion to killing him as long as he was in enemy hands.

The writers just did that to make Kuvira look as evil as possible, instead of making her sympathetic and understandable.

You are a being a little sexist woman can be sociopaths just like men. A sociopath could and would do exactly that. Sociopaths at times can and will murder just for the challenge to see if they can do it and to me it seems Kurviera is conquering republic city just to see if she can.

Was pretty surprising by how Kuvira just used the weapon without any hesitation. Yikes, talk about heartless.

Wasn't aware I was up to begin with.

Liked this episode. It did a great job is keeping the frantic passing on target. Can't wait to see the dust settle.

Kuriva has no character anymore. She's just a supervillain. I don't even know what she's trying to do anymore. Next episode she'll probably say, "After the Earth Kingdom....the world will be mine!"

Its pretty obvious Kuriva has no intention on stopping after she reunites the Earth Kingdom, her ultimate goal is world domination.

Maybe she's going to try and have the Earth people slowly try and take over other places, RC is just the start for them. Screw the Fire Nation and Water Tribe, they'll soon be over ruled by the Earth Empire

Next episode, finally action starts! I hope Bolin goes all out with his Lavs bending this fight, he wasn't in that blast with the others, could think they are dead and go on an all rage mode. Let's be honest, Lava bending may be the best bet they have on that giant thing.

Than in the final it will be Korra V.S Kuriva for the Hell of it. Even though I feel this should be between the Earth Kingdom and Zaofu city V.S Earth's Empire. Though I guess since this is kind of involving all of them now, Korra kind has a reason to step in.

Could someone explain to me why they couldn't just metalbend Kuvira's mech apart?

or make a tunnel underneath Kuvira's mech and sink it?

granted I didn't watch the episode....so maybe there are some legit reasons.

There were other smaller tanks and mech suits around the larger one. Also you could not pay me enough to get near that thing
also the most important thing is.
Spoiler:
The army of Republic city surrendered!!!!!

I can't believe on tumblr there are people speculating some of the main cast might have died in the blast. Like they're actually going to kill any of the major characters off in a stone cold blast like that.

I could see Bataar Jr. dying, but even then its a stretch. But there are people speculating that Tenzin, the Beifong's, Mako, or even the kids got killed in the explosion....like...what?

This is still a cartoon airing on Nick, not some anime. The show isn't going to end in a bloodbath with half the "good guys" brutally murdered.

The creators of the show have already confirmed
Spoiler:
a main character will die this season

Korra may not be able to control the avatar state like Aang could, at least it doesn't look like it. As far as using lightening this thing is so huge the voltage from the lightening would dissipate from the sheer size, also I am sure they have the machine's systems grounded so the lightening would just be grounded out.
I can't believe how technical I am being.

Good to see General Iroh back in. I would think he would show up as a cameo like the other characters shown in the series since Legend of Korra began.

Out of all the characters, Korra and Bolin seem to be the ones to have evolved throughout the series. The rest... well, Tenzin's children grew up and Boomi (and some other people) have airbending. Can't say much for the rest, unless I missed any.

The biggest problem with this show is how underused half the main cast was. Mako and Asami largely only existed for bland shipping subplots. Asami especially seemed to have no purpose after her father went to jail.

Opal only exists to give Bolin a girlfriend. Then there's that stupid Kai kid who I forgot even existed...what was the point of him?

I do have to say the Beifong police chief and her sister were pretty well handled characters, and of course Tenzin and his family are the best characters of the show. Everyone else...meh.

Why can't Waku die together? Just add in Yaoi bits in with it like Romeo and Juliet scene than we could kill two birds with one stone, Yaoi fans would jump for joy and us haters can celebrate

Mako dying seems to be a popular choice in the fandom though, ever since that ending fans have been saying he should be the one to die. People think he's been useless and adds nothing except for romance, this season has done a good job prooving that. Heck he was missing how many episodes the first half? The only thing he's been for is Yaoi bait and....

Guess will see what kind of a role hey'll have in the finally. Since the next episode will most likely be Team Avatar V.S Kurvia's team that leaves very little for him to do. Wil be showing most of the main cast in actual fights and quick glimpses of characters helping like Kai ( Who they decided to randomly bring in again but just for the heck of it ) Unless he plays a Katara like role for the final for Korra I'm not seeing much hope for him. Oh well, he's been a lost cause since book one, only narfed into a dork now instead of a Wominiser he was in books one and two.

Spoiler:
Has it really been confirmed some one will die? I've gone through all the interviews and info spoilers and don't remember that in any of them. I could see Korra dying to make room for the next Avatar. I think Kuriva will live and get redeemed if this is true again.

Did any one see the new clip for the next episode by chance?
