Legend of Korra - Page 32

Fantastic episode all around.
Can't wait until next Friday.

*CyberCubed* · 11-07-2014, 12:47 PM

I don't really understand why Korra is so weak now. The poison is out of her, and if you rewatch her fights with the main villains in previous seasons she was so much better and creative with her fighting than she is now.

I mean she can't even take down one normal woman now, even after going into the Avatar state? Yet she was able to take down an evil god in Book 2 and turn into a giant blue woman. I still have no idea how that happened.

Pretty sure The Great Uniter isn't just a "normal woman"...

Answer to your confusion is PTSD. Look it up! That tiny piece of metal is not what's keeping her from going god-mode in her FIRST serious fight in 3 years...

Yeah MrTMNT is right. It looks like she is suffering from ptsd which making her unable to fight to her best performance.
Pretty good episode.
I just became a Verrick fan!!!! lol so great.

Does anyone else feel Korra will end on a whimper and not a bang? The big enemy seems so low key this season when you think about it. Season 2 had Korra fighting what was essentially the spirit of all evil in the world, and Season 3 had 4 hardcore villains.

This season she's just fighting a woman who hovers around being a dictator but hasn't done anything truly evil yet. And she's not as impressive power wise as the Book 3 villains.

I mean all she has to do this time is take down one woman. Unless there's going to be some new villain or twist in the final episodes, it doesn't feel like its a big enough enemy to end the series on.

Well, the theme of this season is forgiveness. It's building Kuriva up to this dictator, when things go on a down spiral for her soon, which will likely be at the half way point of the season I predict shey'll get redeemed some way.

Rumors we've heard so far..

- We are going to have a wedding

- We will have no epic fight for the final

As far as weddings go, I could see these three pairings going down that way...

Bolin x Opal / Kruvia xBj or let's throw a crazy wild card in that and say Varrick and what's her faces name. I could see Bolin / Opal, they've been together for these three years, they are going through a bit of drama and will have I think a fight when reunited as Kuriva tolled that lie about him still being apart of army and supporting her ideas when clearly that's not true but yah. I could see them forgiving each other and have Bolin pop the question when they make up.

Or

If Kuriva redeems herself, I don't know could go either way. I could see Bj betraying her at the end of the series, letting the guilt get to him finally. Seeing his family and the people around him in the Earth Kingdom crumble. Him at last seeing Kyriva really is crazy and try to talk her out of her ways, if he fails tries to end whatever it is shey'll be doing at the end of the season. Of course, could Kuriva actually fall in love with him by the end? I see her at first using him for connections and towards the end realize what she's done breaking her if she does fall in love.

Course we know what Varrick's going through, missing her a lot.

I have a lot of theories. Either way I think every one will be forgiven, Bolin / Opal will reconnect again. Varrick will say sorry for miss treating ( Darn I forget her name ) She will will say sorry for betraying him.

For now, not really looking forward to Korra's arc, I was fine with it and really liking it till she got crushed by Kuriva, at least let her get a few hits in to show how far she's come since her training with Toph. Now will have to watch more plots devoted to her getting to the top again, to me that will be hard to watch one episode a week..

I'm really looking forward to Bolin's / Varrick's plots the most, they'll be the up predictable plots of the bunch. Where are they heading to next? The city to meat up with Korra or to Zaofu to help the people and Su? They know what Kuriva is up to, I think they'll be a good portion why Kuriva old go down soon.

Ku - vi - ra.

*MrTMNT2012* · 11-14-2014, 12:07 PM

Good episode. The reunion was superbly written and I'm understanding why certain plot-lines were given the time and attention they got so I'm happy with that. We still haven't got a clear focus going into the grand-scheme of things for the last 6 episodes but the individual episodes are enjoyable in their own right.

Next episode is gonna be CRAZY!

Hell yeah it is!!!!!!! You know who is gonna be pissed!!!!!

I'm holding out for:

Kuvira exit left, pursued by cat-gator.
Amazing episode. Everyone got a chance to shine, there was legit conflict, and all of the allusions to North Korea were on point.

*CyberCubed* · 11-14-2014, 03:12 PM

I haven't watched the new ep yet but I saw on tumblr people posting gifsets of Korra and Asami meeting and everyone is declaring the ship canon.

I honestly wonder if Nick has the balls to make Korra a lesbian by the time this series ends. Since the show doesn't even air on TV anymore perhaps they can do it. Korra and Asami becoming lesbian lovers is certainly better than Mako getting back either either of them.

Honestly I would've ignored this by now considering the absurdity but Cubed does have a point. Not a single frame is wasted in animation so it makes you wonder why they would randomly put Korra blushing in that scene....

Leofan26 · 11-15-2014, 12:06 AM

I'm not a shipper of Korra x Asami at all but tons of thousands are agreeing with you guy's, I like them best off as friends. Not that I ship Mako x Korra, these days it doesn't make sense either. Mako's reaction to Korra's new hair cut, zero

I didn't care much for the A plot, forced fighting between trio. Prince
Wu still annoys me, though now that he's being baby sat by M and B's family, makes me wonder why they even introduced the guy in the first place? He's by no way to be ruler yet, he's too young and enexperinced for that not to mention he needs to keep that ego of his in check or people will want to off with his head

B plot was more enjoyable in my opinion. Bolin's been really impressing me this season, his Earth bending skills and lava bending are awesome! Not to mention he's been maturing, step by step folks. His and Varrick's dynamic is one of the best parts of the season, I seriously would love a spin off on adventures with them

I hope those guy's they helped save join them, they seem pretty cool people.

Varrick's idea, brilliant. The thing that impressed me though most had to be
Bolin's lava bending, dang that was boss. The way he's them man

I hope he gets to meat Toph next, hey'll did meeting her

*NinjaPug* · 11-15-2014, 10:10 AM

Was that a new VA for Asami this week?

*CyberCubed* · 11-15-2014, 05:49 PM

^ No, it was the same.

Anyway anyone not feeling the "epicness" of this season? As a season itself its been good, but considering this is the final season of the entire show as well as possibly the last "Avatar" season in general....it doesn't really feel that big.

This could be the final season of the Avatar franchise since we're probably not getting another show after this one. And considering there are only 6 or 7 episodes left in this season, it feels like its not going to have a big sendoff.

Leofan26 · 11-16-2014, 01:20 AM

Ironically enough, the only action bits we've had is with Bolin's / Varrick's plots.i've been enjoying book four for different reasons, it lacks a certain charm the third season had. For one thing, the entire team Avatar was split apart again, minus the Reunion episode and that's not even the entire team yet. I thought after book three we'd be seeing more Team Avatar team work but it's the exact opposite of what I was thinking

Book three they acted like a family and had some fun villains.
One thing I am confused about is, why the final season they choose to have some characters absent? Mako was absent for three episodes I think, Asami's had barley any role. Funny thing, the only character of the main cast that's been shown a lot is Bolin, along time ago the fandom would have thought that'd never come

Though, one thing I am really liking about this season is what they are doing with Bolin's character and his dynamic relationship with Varrick, they have some great chemistry

*CyberCubed* · 11-21-2014, 12:47 PM

What is this? A goddamn CLIP SHOW?!?!

NOOOOOOOO!

*plastroncafe* · 11-21-2014, 12:55 PM

Blame Nickelodeon.
They cut the budget during production of Book Four and it was either fire half their production staff, or cut the season's animation budget by an episode.

I'd ask if there's any further ways Nick could screw the proverbial pooch more with regards to this show, but...that'd only be tempting them to find one.

*CyberCubed* · 11-21-2014, 01:04 PM

So how many total episodes are there in this season, 13 or 14? If its 13 we only have 5 new episodes left.

*Redeemer* · 11-21-2014, 03:33 PM

So yeah that was um..... interesting
