that becomes air bender in s3

That execution scene was surprising too

And then the explosion girl's death

yeah

Even water tentacle girl's death

thats why zuko showed up probably

giving bending to randos ruins the world, more than Korra killing off her predecessors, more than bastardizing the spirit world, more than having no concept of technological advancement or shitty writing elsewhere in the series

to explain how to defeat combustion bending

Spooky but remember

s2 started the rando bending

Season 2 already ruined that spooky

just had to be with a lion turtle

With the lion turtles

that part is the creation myth part

thaat's whatever

dumb lore dumps are dumb

That's everything

infact thats how aang was originally going to learn fire bending in atla iirc

but ehaz said fuck that zuko redemption

It's not just a story, it's korra's visions of her past life

sure, but it's clearly a creation myth

It rewrote the previous ones in a lame way

how does Korra kill off the past avatars without removing her own avatar status?

She gets raava back, but the past avatars are gone forever

also true, but until it starts fucking up the actual world, it's just a dumb larp about the past

like this leg

And what about the spirit kites

and the thing is

SHE DOES LOSE HER POWER

What about killing aang

but gets it back in a shittier way

you can write it in a way, that doesn't ruin the world even if you keep the dumb creation myth shit

just don't give everyone bending

honestly, the more I think about Korra as a whole, the more I hate the series

what are you talking about spooky

there are people who cant bend

I agree that it's dumb, but it doesn't bother me nearly as much

"everyone" means random people

due to the stupid convergence

I did but i hardly remember it

its been a while

People across the world randomly get airbending

After korra merges the spirt and physical worlds

because of korra defeating vatu and unalaq it randomly gave people air bending

because ?????

presumably because it had the least representation

and despite making up around 13% of the bending population they committed up to 50% of the crimes

Otherwise every new airbender would've had to come from aang's dick

they would have had to adam and eve that shit

And those monks are fairly chast as is

i dont think they were anti sex

I didn't buy zaheer beating tenzin

I need to stop thinking about Korra

That annoyed me quite a bit

wasnt it 3 v 1

but yes

idr the context

it's just such a waste, of such a worthy franchise

which deserved better

I wonder how much Naruto and Avatar influenced each other, since I keep thinking of parallels to what you guys mention

Remember how unalaq instantly mastered all 4 elements and was stronger than korra

how did vatuu even do that

he never held the elements lmao

what would naruto take influence from avatar

It's in the lore because vaati was thinking for 10,000 years in the tree bubble

naruto didn't finish being written until 2014

but it was already going when atla was made, and had its own stuff

The rules of atla were kind of hard and fast

ok fine, I wonder if AtLA's writers read naruto

ask them

I get the idea that naruto is a lot looser

it is much looser

people are born with up to 3 elements

And a given character's powers can follow any sort of gimmick needed for a fight scene

i never finished naruto but they pulled a lot of stuff out from nowhere

the final arc has the two main characters becoming essentially natural 6 element users

and the final boss is a space alien

Just like avatar
