They put a fig leaf on it. The real dilemma is this: is Mako the worst boyfriend, or the best wingman? Hauldren Collider posted:I just realized something about the finale. When Hiroshi is cutting into her leg and Kuvira swats him like, well, a mosquito--why didn't she just leave her hand there? Cover the hole? Like, duh. She needed that arm to break free of the ice.

Miss Nomer posted:I've got fingers crossed that next time they meet up, Varrick will say, "Zhu Li, let's do the thing!" and then they get married.   The first half of this series was a bit dodgy, but man, at the end of this I was sad to see it go. Just like AtLA, it left me wanting more. PS: Did anyone catch what Verrick's full name was?

That's Sir Iknik Blackstone Varrick to you.  Also the thing I'm going to miss most about Korra is the ending theme and I'm not sure why.

Personally I was hoping Gene Yang was too busy working on the next part of the atla comics that comes after the Rift that they would have to find someone new to write the Korra comics. Plus I don't think his writing fits LoK's tone at all.

If another Avatar series happened I'd love it to jump forward and have the public be somehow jaded/not care about the Avatar. Like she/he becomes some sort of relic of another age and the entire world just stops giving a poo poo. Have it be set in modern day/the future that way we could see even more cool technological/bending poo poo

thexerox123 posted:I think the prevailing complaint about it in past threads was that there was just too much of it in season 1, at the expense of a potentially more involved/in-depth Equalist storyline. The fact that it was a shortened season compared to AtLA didn't help, either. Pretty much every onscreen moment of pro-bending was development of world, characters, or plot. I agree that the Equalists could have used more time to make their nature clearer given fan reaction as is, but it wouldn't have helped to take it away from there.
