The Legend of Korra - Book 2 Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ftLm52V1y0#ws)
looks like the animation got even better. it looks like Tarlok is in this at points. also has Wan, the first Avatar ever, in what i'm assuming is the spirit world. get hype
oh boy
Read the interview where they talked about Wan (lol wut) and they said that it's actually the human world 10,000 years ago. They said it would be inspired by ancient wood-block prints and watercolors, but I was blown away by how pretty it is. They pulled it off pretty well.
Also kind of surprising, it looks like Tenzin's kids will be tagging along for some of Korra's adventures. One of them even seems to have spirity powers. I just hope they quit with Meelo's fart bending, kinda cringe inducing.
Edit: All this time I've been wondering where Sokka and Suki's kids were (because you KNOW they had some) and I'm wondering if their kid isn't leader of the water tribe. Those twins at 1:54 could be his granddaughters.
And we still don't have anything on Zuko's daughter.
i'd also appreciate some updates on toph

(open this from url with your torrent program)
The animation and art is definitely killer but the writing/dialogue got pretty stiff in some parts.
[spoiler]I can't really put it in to words but Korra's teen angst just seems so forced/cliche compared to the original cast, or at least it feels that way. She was kind of a bitch most of the episode. The adults, too, seem like they have their heads up their asses.
The twins are great though, funny how /co/ actually called it on one of them being a dude. Scientifically speaking, identical fraternal twins are incredibly unlikely if not impossible, so I didn't think it'd be true. Either Nick is ignoring that rule or I'm calling shenanigans. I wonder how far they're going to push this. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]i feel like this will be elaborated in the story later on. for example, did you notice that korra found out that she was lied to about the reasons why she was locked up for so much of her life in training? this was at the festival dinner, when she asked her dad if the white lotus and aang decided it would be best for training to take place at the south pole after unalaq reveals to her that aang traveled all over the world during his training.
i think that korra's father and tenzin have been deliberately hiding something huge from her in order to protect her, and they may be forced to reveal it soon. already unalaq has thrown down his first hand, and it's pretty clear he has had this planned out all along. also, he is similar to amon in that he has some ability no one else seems to posses. this time it being able to convert these spirits to their 'light' form.
i also think that korra opening that portal probably did something really bad as well (besides start unalaq's plan)[/spoiler]

[spoiler]That's pretty interesting actually. I forget, but did they ever cover how Aang actually died? I think they implied it was old age but that never made sense to me, even at 170-ish that'd still be pretty young for an avatar. And then there's the whole thing with Jinora. Yeah, somethings up.
Idk, everyone on /co/ is circlejerking over how they "predicted" Unalaq as being the villain. It's was way too obvious. I mean they kept thinking he was actually the one summoning the spirits and that opening the portal would unleash hell on earth or something, and it doesn't really feel that way to me. Here's what I think: Unalaq is really just a well-meaning but over zealous conservative. He's not evil or really "scheming" in the Tarlok/Amon sense. He genuinely thinks what he's doing is right, and in some ways he probably is. But the moral of the season is going to be that everything, even spirituality and conservative attitudes, have to be balanced. Korra's going to take the middle road and learn restraint/compassion or some bullshit while keeping her inner rebelliousness intact, then heal the bond between her dad and uncle and the physical/spirit world. There probably won't be any real "big bad" this season, just of a bunch of conflicted opinions that need compromise.
If I turn out to be wrong and Unalaq really has been manipulating the spirits from the beginning, I think I'd actually be upset. Not for being wrong, but because it's just stupid. They did the whole "sibling rivalry/sinister keikaku" thing last season. Regardless, I think I'm siding with /co/ on the premiere: everything about it was enjoyable except for the main character, which is kind of sad.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]no they did not really cover aang's death at all. they just said he died young because he used up too much of his energy, or something. but if you look at past avatars, there were some very old looking avatars. aang did not look that old when he died. or at least the last time we saw him. and the statue of him looks quite young as well. perhaps he went through something rather traumatic that advanced his death.
i thought from the trailers it was pretty obvious that unalaq was up to something, but i do agree that to some extent he believes that he has good intentions or at least believes he is doing the right thing. amon and tarlok thought that way, too. they were just more blunt about it.
and yea, korra was being a total bitch. obviously she is going to be needing tenzin and her father again soon, and she'll probably be regretting the stupid choice she made by right about the beginning of the next episode.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]I hope we see more of a non rebellious korra much like the one in the trailer where the lady is asking who she is. It'd be refreshing to see her a little more level headed, because her bitchy attitude is getting in the way of anything developing.
The only avatar that I can think that does not look old in reincarnations is Kyoshi, but she's known as the oldest living avatar to date. so maybe when avatars are reincarnated, they take the forms of their most prime self?
just a thought[/spoiler]

Roku was pretty old looking. The Aang statue might just be how he or his family wanted him to be remembered, and in that sense Roku and Kyoshi too might prefer being remembered the way we see them

How many water tribe brother vs. brother scooby-doo villain trickery plots are we going to do in this series?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]all we can do is hope we are wrong and that there's more to it. it would also make his brother look like a total idiot for never figuring it out after all these years.[/spoiler]
it's hard to say where this series is going, but i will say that this pilot didn't feel strong to me. i am a fan of the series, but nothing held my interest in any of this, i honestly found myself becoming bored and phasing out during it. i don't really like the shots, and the writing so far has been pretty bad.
as a serious goddamn weaboo, i expected i'd really like the fact that the animation is now being handled by studio pierrot (currently home of some of my favorite contemporary japanese animators), but outside of the action scenes having way prettier fx animation and more dynamic anime-looking action, i honestly don't really feel like the animation has improved. during dialogue and non-action scenes, everything feels way more stiff and jerky, i find the poses aren't interesting and the animation isn't fluid. it's common for anime to bump up the quality during the really good scenes, but i feel like the drop in overall quality is pretty noticeable, and i don't find myself enjoying the well animated scenes as much anyway because i think the layout in the scenes is really confusing. (it's worth noting that book 2 is now directed by someone named "Colin Heck", a completely different director) I love pierrot to pieces and maybe the visuals are bound to get a little more viewer-friendly, but i feel like for the budget difference they're paying to outsource to japan as opposed to south korea, that money could be getting used for something more constructive, like paying for better writing or something.
as of writing this i'm really tired and havent seen anyone elses opinions on this, but i figured i'd drop this here. i kind of hope my opinion will change later but we shall see

as someone who hasn't seen korra, i can tell i'll enjoy reading this thread
well get on it son
They got fucking motorboats in this show, that's all I'm saying. 100 fucking years ago, a majority of the people in the world were living in small dirt villages and shitting in potholes.
i'd wager a majority of the world is still doing something to the equivalent of that
I'm late to the thread but whatever.
Although I can't think of anything to say of substance besides I enjoyed the premier.
I'm excited to see what everything else besides republic city will look like.
interesting new episode.
[spoiler]hearing that aang wasn't exactly the perfect father makes me want to know more. i wonder if we'll get some flashback.s and korra's family life not so perfect either. makes everything more relatable.
somehow i feel like unalaq is just going to end up a red herring. that or he really believes he's doing the right thing and is just misguided. but he doesn't seem..evil enough to be the villain. even though they try to make him look evil, like on his dark throne in the shadows.[/spoiler]
also bolin is fucking hilarious. him and sokka would've gotten along so well.
foolishBolin and Eska are the only thing keeping this season bearable IMO. They offset the Korra angst.
[spoiler]Thank god she made up with her parents, I can't stop cringing at how whiny she's been. All though Unalaq arresting them is pretty fucking stupid IMO. It's not going to win Korra or the Souther tribesman over to his side considering no one would believe they had anything to do with the uprising.
Also, if Tonraq wasn't part of the uprising to begin with I'm surprised they didn't just kill Unalaq right off the bat.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]this is probably unalaq's next attempt to try and convince korra that her father is working against her or something, honestly i think it's a stupid move on his part if he wants to stay in korra's favors, but he must have another card up his sleeve.
my best guess is that he is setting up to frame korra's father with a skewed jury/evidence in court to make it look like he was lying to korra (which korra may believe since he lied about the past), because obviously unalaq wanted him and the others dead. so since he can't do that (probably have tonraq killed and make it look like an accident/rebel attack), he will use the court to get what he wants instead.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler]I agree about wanting to know about aang. It may be due to the fact that aang knew tenzin would be the first generation of airbenders, so he found it his duty to know of their history. it's unfortunate that aang's other kids never got to have that kind of relationship with their dad.
I'd kind of like a history or lesson of how genes decide what type of bender you are if you are one from the start. I know there is fan theories on this, but when there's known information that that the air nomads were all benders due to the high percentage of spirituality within their people, why were aang and katara's first two children a nonbender and a water bender?[/spoiler]
maybe it's because katara wasn't an air bender
fucking called it. even though the episode was extremely predictable i still enjoyed it. sometimes i wish they didn't spell everything out so plainly for the audience. but it's ok. korra is acting a lot more likable now.
yeah i agree, this was the first time i actually went "yeah you go girl"
i feel like this episode was the turning point for me to continue watching. it had a great balance of drama and comedy
[spoiler]it'll be interesting to see how korra combats the spirits since unalaq most likely won't help her now. also I kind of can't wait for a korra/tenzin reunion.[/spoiler]
As long as Unalaq doesn't turn out to have some crazy ability to summon and/or manipulate spirits, I guess I'm okay with the plot, just wish they didn't basically rehash Amon/Tarlok.
[spoiler]I find myself enjoying Tenzin's story arc more than expected. Also, since the plan seems to involve getting the republic of nations involved, we can expect to see more of General Iroh II, but I wonder if we'll finally meet Zuko's daughter.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]also wondering if we'll see zuko as well since he's confirmed to be alive[/spoiler]

[spoiler]also wondering if we'll see zuko as well since he's confirmed to be alive[/spoiler]
Oh right, forgot about that.
[spoiler]You know, I'd love to see how Katara and Zuko act around one another at their current age. If they ever mellowed out or they're still snarky. Hell, I think it'd be pretty funny for Bryke to troll the shit out of the Zutara shippers and imply there was/could be an affair between them now that both of them are widowed, then brutally shoot it down or interrupt it with Ikki like they did with the Zuko's mom question, leaving it ambiguous[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Motherfuckers teased us, thinking we'd see Zuko and his daughter by the end of the episode or the beginning of the next, and then suddenly Krakken. Also, despite her making some progress last episode she totally regresses back again. It's like her character growth is stunted, ffs. [/spoiler]
[spoilerimg]http://i.imgur.com/ZxoUnm8.png[/spoilerimg]
[spoiler]i like how they solved korra's bitchmode problem by giving her amnesia. now she actually has to re-learn what it means to be the avatar.
and i still love varrick as a character. i had a feeling that he would wind up being the "bad" guy, he obviously has had a vested interest in war profiteering ever since he decided to create his propaganda film. now sabotaging future industries to get a cut of the profits is something else. he's a mustache-twirler no doubt but i think he's written really well.

i agree
Well that was unexpected.
[spoiler]Dat Iroh. I really didn't expect to see him again, kind of funny that he's essentially attained Nirvana through making tea. I don't know about you guys but somehow it feels like everything this season has more or less rewritten all of the rules about spirits and the spirit world. For example it seems really odd that the Owl Librarian would side with Unalokk, as he is incredibly distrusting of humans and would probably notice the 'evil 'effect Unalokk has on nearby spirits. The whole Vatu thing seems completely out of left field and is kind of cheesy, in the sense that Avatar villains have always been grounded in reality with human flaws and moral ambiguities. And the thing about lion turtles giving bending to people directly contradicts both the origin stories of bending (badger moles, air bison, the moon and the sun/dragons respectively) and the quote from Book 3 in ATLA that went "in the time before the avatar, we bent spirits not elements".[/spoiler]

[spoiler]it is possible that there is more to the story than that, that benders had a story even before the origin of Wan , as in tandem with human history the kind of technology and settlements they had to have preceded at least a millennium of human development. it is also probably true that in ATLA they weren't really thinking much of this story and had none of it planned whatsoever, in which case i think it is acceptable to do some minor retcons in order to tell a larger story that was barely ever touched on/not the point of the original series.
there is also more we don't know about what Unalaq is doing and he's obviously been to the spirit world before, when i do not know - otherwise how could he possibly be working with, much less know of Vatu?[/spoiler]
[spoiler]maybe the legends of the original benders being the first benders were created to better understand why people became benders in the first place, kind of like its own religion. that way, it's more meaningful to say the elements were shown through nature rather than "I stole them from a lion turtle no take backs"[/spoiler]
<flee> a wizard did it
spooky!
well, book 2 is over . what did you guys think of the ending?
[spoiler]one thing is for sure - we got the amazing battle that season 1 never really had. i always thought the final battle between amon and team korra was very stunted. animation was incredible all four episodes, definitely got better as the season went on.
i think it goes without saying that the season improved dramatically following korra's amnesia. she is now a truly realized avatar, and she's a lot more likable. i'm also very glad that mako and korra are permanently broken up. she's right, they just don't work together. and asami deserves it after being pushed around so much.
the finale felt a little dbz-ish to me, and i'd love to know what jenora was actually doing in the spirit world to get rava back. i also wish they would have explained more about how unalaq was planning all of this - surely he didn't know who vatu was before he opened the spirit portal. does this mean his intentions were originally less.. evil? did he met vatu and explore the spirit world between the time korra opened the portal and when his plans commenced? none of this is really clear.
despite these things i think everything was tied up pretty nicely. everything that bothered me about the main characters is settled now, and everyone had their time on-screen to do what they needed to do. i'm still a little shocked at chief bei fong's lack of foresight with her crooked detectives, and asami got shafted for so long, but in the end they still got resolved properly.
i thought that korra connecting to the energy of the "cosmos" and whatnot was a little vague and cornball, but i get what they were trying to do. i think the biggest problem is that we never saw korra grow up, so when we see her connec to her true self, we only know a part of her. everything about her past we are only told about. so when we see aang become a fully realized avatar in ATLA, i feel like it has more impact because we spent so much more time with him. i get that they have to condense everything down, but because of that it doesn't have as much of an effect.
still, it was a really impactful ending and the animation was superb. overall i'd give season two 4/5 stars. a slow start, but a knock-out ending.[/spoiler]
now we wait for s3! wonder what that will be about. i wonder if they'll resolve the [spoiler]connection to past avatars being broken[/spoiler]
You covered a lot of what I wanted to say. The animation and action were top notch, but the writing was kind of wonky.
[spoiler]Parts I liked:
-Varrick's entire arc
-Admiral Zhao's cameo
-Bolin finally being useful/awesome
-The idea of a Dark Avatar and it being Unalaq's motivation (which was unclear until now)
-Korra and Mako splitting for good
-Korra with her hair down most of the finale (Hhhhhhnnnnnnnnnngggggg)
Parts that were weak:
-Nobody, from Lin to Bolin, considering Mako might have actually been right this whole time
-President Raiko holding his troops at Republic City when he could have made all the difference in preventing Unalaq's victory at the South Pole in the first place
-Unalaq not killing Korra and crew when he had them captured (Ozai would've had none of that shit)
-Korra still having all her bending despite Rava being "destroyed" (how does that work, exactly?)
-COSMIC ENERGY
-Spirit Kaiju Battles (seriously?)
-Deus ex Jinora doing whatever it was that she did
and the whole Vatu thing in general, but you've already heard those complaints. Varrick was a much more interesting villain/character and I'm looking forward to what he'll be up to in Season 3.
Edit: Also, somehow I doubt that Mako and Korra are really over over. The team seems really into the romantic subplots and I don't see them introducing a new love interest for Korra unless it's one of Zuko's other grandkids or something. I mean I'd be perfectly cool with Korra just focusing on being the Avatar but you know they're just going to throw her back at Mako.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]i'm going to guess it relates to rava saying that the dark can never completely destroy the light and vice versa, but it's never explained or shown so it's all up in the air really[/spoiler]
