I’d say she’s a struggling avatar. I mean the world felt safe and didn’t need the avatar until season 4. After all, if Kuvira won, it would’ve been the Hundred Year War all over again.
@@mello.art0 I don’t think it’s fair to compare her to other Avatars as we only really know 4 of them, excluding her. Aang, Ruko, Kyoshi, Kun. The others we heard about we only know a small bit about them.
@@thegreekguy1124 also she was manipulated into opening the spirit portal and all that andddd season three is in no way her fault either lol as that happened as a product of her being manipulated by unalaq so unalaq cause season two and three
I'm assuming it has something to do with energy bending. And those past lives are still Korra's past lives so there's some kind of connection still there 🤷🏻
@@creeper4481 i think energy/souls are the failsafe. The avatars are basically one soul living many different lives and I think by tapping into the energy of the universe or time maybe the connection can be restored. Maybe the tree of time can help the next avatar reconnect? Or maybe a lion turtle that can bend the soul or something 🤷🏻
Szeto is by far the worst, he caused Yangchens problems, which caused kuruk’s problems, which caused kiyoshi’s problems. He messed up 3 generations of the world
@@darthjader724 u can tell who has only watch ATLA show and not all of LOK to most of the time Avatar gun literally wanted to end humanity lmfao bro was genuinely cooked and evil as hell
just remember her in first fight with kuvira she was still poisoned, traumatised and had just came back after being wheelchair bound for almost three years and she wasnt in control of when she entered the avatar state when poisoned, and for amon its kinda understandable why she lost, he is a master psychic bloodbender, and korra probably had never seen bloodbending before then another thing adult aang couldnt resist yakones bloodbending without the avatar state and amon is stronger than yakone
@@BeanGuyThatDoesStuff yeah no he isnt, amon is a much more versatile user of bloodbending and a more precise user too not to mention he can take away bending which yakone was never able to do
@@BloodBunii The thing is. Amon had Way more Time to train, How? He was being thought at a younger age, Im guessing that Yakone learned It more later in his life, And he is the first person to Do blood bending without a full moon And without using his Hands at all, So amon *Probably* Got it from his dad, And learned how to Take away one's bending, Also if Yakone let's say Had the same ammount of time to train Bloodbending (at a pretty young age) He'd probably be way better, Overall it's unfair with the Cannons
@@BeanGuyThatDoesStuff amon isnt just a better bender hes a better fighter and has far superior hand to hand combat along with chi blocking most likely even if yakone had more time to train amon will always be a tougher opponent
The point of Korra's journey is not about winning physical fights but about maturing mentally and emotionally: knowing when to use force and when to use diplomacy in an ever changing and evolving world.
I wouldn't say shes the best Avatar ever but She was a decent avatar. Unlike Aang, She grew up in a peaceful world. So She didnt have as much experience at the start.
@@Jay45012 for me korra brought the most change to the world in order the propell it forward into a new era the only issue I have is how some of the character development happened in the later seasons , other than that its a good show
bruh, korra caused 3 of the 4 main problems, break the avatars knowledge, conect the spirit world that was a big mistake becouse of zhao complex and the only good thing she did was recovering the air benders wich caused indirectly a mass destruction and masacre@@mello.art0
@@mello.art0 i saw something that said the reason korra brought about so much change is because shes a water avatar and water is the element of change much like wan originally being a firebender and fire being the element of life and power he started the cycle and aang being the air avatar and stopping the 100 year war as air is the element of peace i believe
If I'm gonna be honest, all of this were also the White Lotus' fault, I mean, in ATLA-they were great, but they absolutely sucked in TLoK. They practically isolated Korra in the Southern Water Tribe, which leads her to not being able to see the entire world and the cruel reality, as she was always told by the White Lotus that her being the Avatar is the most important thing in her entire life, which quickly became her entire personality: being the Avatar.
Korra would also lose to azula. Not to mention azulw usually had help against dang. Not to mention she was using blue fire which is way more dangerous than normal fire. Irl and in the anime.
korra losing the past avatars wasnt her fault, she was manipulated into opening the spirit portals by unaloq and he also had jinora held hostage, either way i believe the avatar cycle was always meant to reset during harmonic convergence no matter who the avatar was cause thats when raava and vaatu have to fight every 10000 years so restarting the cycle exactly 10000 years later doesnt seem like a coincidence to me
It would make sense but the next avatar has no one not even her the next avatar will be the weakest as all the past lives contribute to the strength of the current one
Every Avatar had their flaws. Let's not forget Aang literally fled his home, which caused his entire nation to be wiped and the rest of the world in fear Fire nation's control for 100 years
He was 12 the other avatar were 16 when the were told another thing they had years to learn anng had to do it within a few months and was still a better avatar then her and for everyone saying your being Sexist I am not
@@meighanwalcott1921 It's not about being Sexist it's about the Avatars duty. Korra was born in an Era where she wanted to be the Avatar but wasn't really needed where as Aang had to be the Avatar and didn't want to. Every Avatar had their flaws, even Aang had many. Yes, Korra may have lost many fights but in almost none of them was she at 100% where as Aang was finnaly able to use the Avatar State against Ozai. And yes Aang may have been a prodogy but who says that he was the best Avatar? He neglected his duty and because of that the Air Nation was destroyed and the 100 years war went on where as Korra did her duty even if she didn't win. Her struggles made her more human and not just the Avatar. Against Amon she didn't have the Avatar State like Aang had. Against the Dark Avatar she wasn't really prepared as he was THE FIRST DARK AVATAR IN THE ENTIRE SERIES and VAATU had more power than RAAVA as he was MUCH BIGGER. And in the 3rd Season she got poisoned with METAL POISON. Everyone thought that she would've died but she was able to put a fight and still lived after the fight. Against Kuvira she had no more Poison but was Mentally drained. So as I said, Aang was a good Avatar but wasn't the best where as Korra wasn't the winning Avatar but did her duty. And don't start with the 10.000 years of experience being gone. I could start about the war and go on and on about it.
Aang never ran away, he actually just went for a ride on appa cause he couldn't sleep after finding out he was the avatar and got caught in a storm; not to mention if he never left he would have died as previously stated by another. Otherwise what aang did was partially his fault but it's not like he knew his people were gonna be invaded and that a storm was gonna catch him off guard; Korra did an okay job as an avatar but she wasn't the worst avatar, if you remember Roku literally had to apologize for having aang fix his fuck ups. After all Roku spent more time training and becoming a powerful avatar instead of monitoring the world closely like other avatars, regardless they may be the same soul but it isn't the same person, they all have flaws but all tried their best in the end❤
Tbh I feel more connected to Korra than the other avatars because Korra has made more mistakes like a real person keep in mind even know she's the avatar she's still human
@-xtfyfdtsearxstd that might be alot but its nothing compared to every avatar. Korra never is peaceful and is always in a fighting spirit. Thats not alot if you think about
@@Deliburd546 korra's a *fighter* who brought peace and balance to the world at the end of the series + her being a fighter is what actually kept her going through all the shit she's been through .. (imagine her as a weak girl, she'll never overcome what happened to her) so it's a lot (if u ask anybody who have watched the series)
I think comparing avatar from avatar depends on what they go through. Aang had alot of Mental trauma, but he had more physical injuries than mental ones. Korra is the opposite. She had alot of physical injuries, but she had alot more Mental injuries that caused alot of trauma. So was she a bad Avatar? No. Was her enemies like Aangs? No. Did she save the world and change it for the better? Yes. And that's why Korra's line as an Avatar was infact good, because the problems she had to deal with, was infact not a 100year war that caused conflict on the outside, but more conflicts that happened on the inside. That's why Aang had more physical injuries, than mental one. And Korra had the oposite.
Let's be honest put Aang at Korras Place Nd he would fail harder than Korra ever could. Hate aside i love Aang Korra had so many strong Enemys and so complex problems throughout the 4 Seasons. She was trained almost her entire life to be the Avatar and once she could actually fulfill her duty sherealiced that she wasn't prepared at all. She was manipulated so many times (well actually only 2 Times if i think about it) but still every time she solved 1 Problem she found herself in another dead end.
@@jaiy1321well... Even when he was in the avatar state he wasn't able to protect himself from azula, actually she killed him ! and mind u korra's enemies were wayyy stronger than his so I doubt he'll ever get a chance to run away and hide like he did in the past .. let alone beat them
Korra was a great avatar.The thing is after loosing fights she was slowly loosing her mind and mentality. She ended up being broken mentaly in season 3 i think?. And imagine being the avatar and having to relearn how to walk...
Korra was a terrible avatar sorry to say. 90% of her problems were self caused and then when she suffers for it you have pity on her🤷🏾♂️ she had so much potential to be strong yet simply never was in any fight. She was always out matched or out smarted which is terrible because the avatar is supposed to be the best. Aang beat a man 4x his age with decades more war experience and power than him on the night of sozins comet yet with 3 elements and life training she couldn't even match up to amon???
@blueflamedragon3764 she did lose a lot of fights,for amon you got to remmeber he used blood bending which even angg couldnt resist whitout the avatar state.She didnt really cause a lot of problems ,like she wanted for the red lotus to chase her.One thing the legsnd of korra lacks is charachter development.Yes angg did beat ozai but he needet advice from his past lives,which korra didnt have,sence her spiritual side was no that great.Later on it was completely taken awey.
@@bogdandjurdjevic4820 thing is if we are to play the blood bending card then sure her loss to amon was valid but you know it order to take someone's bending your will must be stronger than Thiers cause that was demonstrated when aang took ozais bending but for Korra Amon didn't even struggle he took it in seconds like she was just too weak as a person to handle being the avatar and besides Amon there are loads of people who beat her up who shouldn't have been able to
@@bogdandjurdjevic4820 another thing is Korra broke the connection to past lives like honestly the whole power behind the avatar state is the power of all the past avatars flowing through you but because of her stupidity all that power is lost the kind of power that aang used to make ozais look like a lil bitch she lost that easily. So for the nest 100+ years the avatar state will only be a slight physical boost cause no more past lives and no more power of the past avatars
@blueflamedragon3764 i frogot to mention. i think amon cant "take bending" its not mentiond but most likely he just disabled it whit blood bending then korra gave it back.Idk what is diffrent but when angg takes bending and when oman takes bennding it seems diffrent. Yes kuvira did beat her,but we also see her mental problems there when she saw herself in kuvira.She got scared.You gota remeber the poisen still had effect later on.
People always put Aang on a pedestal. Aang isn’t perfect, Korra isn’t perfect. But they’re both decent avatars in their own right. Aang was forced to grow up fast due to war. Korra was taught that being the avatar was the most important thing in the world. She was iscolated from everything and everyone else for sixteen, seventeen years. It makes sense how she would react in season one. By season four, she was suffering for most of the season with PTSD which wasn’t her fault.
Although people say she's the worst Avatar because she creates some of her problems and even has her powers taken away, I just say, at least she didn't run away from a 100 year war of constant suffering worldwide.
He didn’t run from the world did he? I mean, he was frozen while it all kinda started without him and then unfrozen at just the right time. Korea may technically have done the bare minimum of being an avatar, but she definitely wasn’t a good one
He mentioned in one episode when showing more flashbacks that he knew the responsibility of being the Avatar and ran away, which could also conclude to him running away from his responsibilities to stop the war.
@@alllrytee1003 that’s a whole other thing he was 12 when it all came down but he ran from the responsibility not the war probably would’ve have come back had he not been frozen
@@LegendZe1-26 I don’t hate it’s entertaining but for the sake of the debate and video I find it wrong to call her good for doing something of the bare minimum and people say she better but the fact of the matter is that Ang was way more skilled at 12 then her at 19-18
Being a avatar is giving peace to the bending world and she did do that, Which means she is a good avatar, Actually the avatars arent gonna fight only save the world from war, *note:hope that helps😊❤❤*
Imo, she achieved the bare minimum goal of an avatar. She wasn't good or bad, she was just an avatar. There are definitely avatars way better than her, but there's also some worse. She is however the only avatar to destroy the cycle completely tho
Ah yes, the average sexist and biased avatar fan who blames Korra for everything. Funny how people think she's bad when her opponents needed to take away her bending, manipulate her, poison her, gang up on her, lie to her, trick her, and use dirty tactics to beat her. Also, Aang literally died. If Katara didn't bring him back then there would be no more Avatars and the fire nation would have won. And Korra was meant to restart the avatar cycle.
You know what restarting the avatar state means it means the next avatar will be weaker than Korra because those years of experience strengthen the avatar also the spirit world and human world are separate for a reason now spirits like koh can wonder free.She basically undid millenia's of work of previous avatars she has set up all the problems the next avatar will have being avatar is not about being a hero and making everyone happy it's about keeping the world in check
@@animeuploader4992 Korra was tricked and manipulated by her uncle, it wasn't her fault. And like I mentioned, Aang literally DIED in the avatar state. If Katara didn't bring him back, there would be NO MORE avatars and the fire nation would have won and taken over. So if anything, Aang is worse than Korra.
@@IcedCoffeeLover100 Ah yes another one these people. While yes all of those things did happen korra. She had way more experience than aang as she trained for years while aang only had a couple months and she looses more battles than any avatar I seen.NOT TO MENTION she also lost all the experience of all the past avatars. I’m not saying she’s the worst avatar but she is definitely not better than aang. No hate❤❤❤
@@Greenscreenkid747 Aang was an air bending master, and at the time of his death he was only lacking in fire training which he did technically have a little bit of training in. And a lot of people say that Aang is stronger and better than Korra.
@@Greenscreenkid747 Also,, funny how you say "another one of those people" as if 90% of avatar fans don't put Aang on a pedestal. I should be saying that to you. And then you say "no hate" like???? Honestly, average ATLA fan tbh.
she didn't bring change and balance, each season someone had to help and save her so badly that they ptactically did more work than her. Season 1 Aang gave her bending back and the ability to give everyones bending back. Season 2 Jinora saved her from Vaatu. Season 3 literally everyone except her killed or captured the red lotus members. Season 4 everyone except her were trying to stop kuvira while she spent most of the time getting the mercury out of her body
No. She didn't look out for the people. She allowed them to be oppressed knowingly. It was her job to intervene in the earth queens domain. She wasn't looking out for the people. She was looking out for her self image and pride.
I’d say she was not a good Avatar because she lost three bending abilities and needed The GOAT Aang to give them back to her second she lost all connection to her past lives leaving her and future Avatar without wise guidance from multiple lives
average enemies? she faced a non bender that got airbending and mastered it completely surpassing even aang in airbending, a water bender bending with no arms, a woman who could blow stuff up with her mind and a lava bender. She also fought vatu and a giant robot controled by the greatest metal bender in the franchise. She was the best avatar. Aang fought a boosted firebender (while he was also boosted) and a teenager.
Don't forget a blood bender that could take away people's bending
14 дней назад
And that’s the problem with people they loved to compare her with Aang and can’t except her as his predecessor and I know he didn’t bring up aang but I’m just explaining why this character gets hate👍
Like that's what I've been saying. Even during the eclipse they said if aang fights the Firelord he'll loose. Korra never ran away from a fight even when she wasn't sure she could win. And seriously with toph and sokka they might have taken him 😂... Cuz zuko would probably help
I think the next avatar will restore the connections because each avatar fixes the others mistake. I also think that the avatar might go into the spirit world and find them because Korra just lost the knowledge not the souls. There was also a game which was something like journey to the spirit world but in that you were aang restoring the knowledge by learning the past 3 avatar life. This game’s timeline was when aang got shot by azula but got saved by Katara. So something similar might happen in the next avatar series
Aang remains the worst avatar. Because of him the world was plunged into 100 years of war. Korra is one of the best avatar. She changed the world a lot.
Blud needs to catch up on Avatar Roku, the man who was blinded by his friendship, causing an 100 year war. Also Aang learned he was the Avatar right before Sozins Comet. Wtf was he supposed to do?
She brought back the airbender which is probably her greatest feat, but she also caused a lot of problems. I think the bigger issue with korra is that she's just not a very likable character in general.
honestly i feel like losing 10.000 years of experince from previous avatar is double edged sword, its of course negative in many point but also positive especially in a fast changing world like avatar with the industralization and bunch of things. Yes older people have wisedom and can give tips but they are also often to stubborn to accept change - now imagine these old people have DIRECT (Mind) controll of you (in some way)
Ppl act like aang aint loose damn near every fight too he ran mostly and kora villains shit on aang villians also she was a toddler no training and knew three elements ppl just dont like kora but realistically kora is better than aang throughout the series
It's like Star Trek Captains. They are each people of them time and circumstances. You could drop one into the other's situation and come out with a completely different opinion.
Korra did do her job but she did in like the worst ways possible and is a sh!t fighter even though she's in a elemental bending fight competition she still gets whooped a lot
Eliy10red8 first of all aang and azula fought once and he lost not because he lost three of his bending abilities but because he could only bend air he was also caught of gaurd he had no idea that azuka was behind him about to strike lightning he was just trying to save a friend aang was a lot less expirienced since he had to save the world at 12 and missed 100 years of training and also a lot of pressure trying to defeat possibly the strongest fire bender alive and he mastered all four elements in 1 year and while aang was taking away peoples bending at 12 korra was getting hers taken away at 17
she was probably the best avatar in the end because she brought back the air nation, connected the spirit world to the real world, stopped defeated kuvira which is like equivalent to ozai, defeated zaheer, defeated dark avatar, defeated amon and saved republic city, united the water tribe, sealed vatuu, aswell as opening a spirit portal with republic city. honestly it’s kinda sad to see people under rate LOK she definitely impacted the world much more than previous avatars including aang. however i give credit to aang he definitely walked so korra could run 😅
Aang died because he was in the avatar state for 100 years which caused he life Spain to be cut in half but the saddest part of all we have to be left with Koraa as da new avatar🥶😭😭😭😭😭😭
So what are you trying to say.... Aang was obviously older by the time he died so sure people would fear Him more... If Korra was older she would also get the same respect as the avatar. Korra wasn't a bad avatar and aang would have made worse decisions in the state of Korra
I personally thinkbit wasn't her fault when she lost her connection with the past avatar, and if you look at it, the avatar place with the statues only had Aangs spot left, someone did a video where he thinks every ten thousand years the avatar cycle resets somehow and starts a new path,
Actually i like the way they designed korra. She's the avatar, so the strongest beeing on earth with the ability to control all 4 (later "5") elements AND everyone knows this. So she behaved like this ib season 1: arrogant and off showing her skills, belive that everybody needs to listen to her because she's OG. BUT the traumatizing experience and the months of sitting in the wheelchair made her vulnerable and more like a normal human. She had to deal with other problems as Aang and didn't won every fight. But i think she did the best she could even after beeing injured. She had a huge Charakter development that she definitely needed to fully understand, what it means to be a real avatar.
People are so quick to judge korra for being a bad avatar and forget aang left the world burn to death for 100 years, let a g*nocide happen and wanted nothing to do with it until he realized he was forced to by faith. Jesus they all have their own shit to deal with
Korra was a great avatar but she needed a little more training but when the chips were down she doubled down and kicked butt when she needed to save those she cared about plus she saved her biggest enemy instead of running away she continued aangs believe to not take a life for that I'm deeply grateful
she stepped in to world affairs long before she was mature enough to handle them not to mention she didn't even start airbending until after her fight with noahtok so she was immature and underprepared to be the avatar i actually feel sorry for her as she didn't get to grow up before dealing with world problems aang on the other hand was far more mature for most of the series
People tend to forget how Zaheer psychologically damaged Korra, which leads to her getting absolutely demolished. But then at the final moment in Season 4, Korra saves Kuvira by using a strong powerful energy bending ability, opening a new portal between the spirit and normal world.
@@jaiy1321so you're saying that "redirecting" that energetic lazer is what caused the portal to be opened ? Definitely no. Pls dont talk about it as if its the most random thing to ever happen on the avatar world ! Yk how much power it takes to open a portal between the two words !! The portals dont get opened just like that, Korra used HER POWERS and that lazer to open the portal , she wanted to do it and she did it !!
I would rather say, Aang was the best Avatar, youngest air bending master, so matured to understand at the age of 12 that killing is not the solution. Compared to him, every Avatar seems low…😊
@celtic143 yeah they could from what we've seen she's the weakest avatar and non that she's lost the past lives, it's confirmed she may not need their advice but she needs their experience
@@animeuploader4992 shes def not the weakest avatar she is arguably 1 or 2, plus shes in the a new time period, same situation with aang they couldn’t provide no avatar due to them not whats new, even without the past avatar s experience she still managed to compete major feats that most avatars haven’t done
I think it's weird that it took her so long and so much to learn airbending when she pretty much emerged being able to bend the other elements. Even if Avatars struggle with the element the avatar before them had, she began training from a very young age, and she had to lose the use of every other element to be able to air bend. Why was she so unbalanced. Was that ever answered?
She's not bad she's just not as insane as Aang. With beating the basically strongest bender alive at age 11. Aang was a beast, korra is human and got unlucky alot.
I believe she was a average avatar like she made mistakes but also made great change and probably was one of the most pure hearted avatars but she is far from the worst as I’m sure there was some avatar in the previous 10000 years who did absolutely nothing
I feel like korra shoulda focused on the story potential they established. That being Korra struggling to follow aangs legacy. By standards set in LOK Aang was the best avatar to date. He payed attention to both the human side and spiritual aspect of being an avatar and kept airbending a live in the world. If LOK focused more on Korra struggle to follow up aang i feel it would have been better received and had much better potential.
The thing i like about the contrast of Korra and Aang, is that comparing them as avatars isnt fair, as their tale is pratically the opposite Aang fled his home and when he got unfrozen, it was still in the period of the 100 years war, he was just a boy that needed to learn how to be the avatar. Unlike Korra who proclaimed herself as the avatar from the start, in a peacefull world with less treats, at the start she was too much pridefull, and we acompanny her tale of an Avatar that needs to learn how to be a human...
I not trying to be rude but she’s like a mid avatar because she lost like 90% of her eyes but she did bring the spirits with humans so she’s definitely
He mastered his element like Aang but Korra had to learn all at once except air and then she had to fight him with mastered element with no fighting styles such as chi blocking or any element, bro just admit she’s not the worst avatar
Nothing was really HER FAULT. We also have to hold into account that she was literally kept away from the world for her whole childhood/teenage years. She didn’t even know that things had to be PAID FOR before the first episode of the series.
I think she is due to her doing what an avatar is supposed to do but the problem is so did it in the wrong way leading people to believe she is a bad avatar even though she did what no other avatar could, I’m not defending her mistakes but I’m pointing out that she did what others couldn’t but she could have done it in a different and better way.
She had the strongest enemies, I do not think that any avatar could have done a better job, and the end of the day what matters is how many poeple were hurt, well in TLOK not a lot. If u want to compare to Aang well was Aang a good avatar running away and leaving the world in 100 years war casuing the death of an entire nation and millions others had sufferd, murdered, and lived with no hope til katara freed him, and if not her who knows for how much longer the whole world would have to suffer. And none of that is korra's fault, she had amon beaten with one bending no avatar state, strongest blood bender in histroy, she had Vatu beaten until the weak brothers could hold Onalak for one more minute, and once he fused with full power vatu well it was too late. Don't forget the korra had weak nearly dead Ravva inside of her, well until she had beaten onavatu on her own with out Ravva, srrongest creature in the world. Against zaheer she had to give her self other wise the whole air nation would have been dead any avatar would have done the same but no avatar would have survived with that amount of posion in his body zaheer said him self that korra's power has no limits. Against Kuvira she smoked her with no avatar state and she did great on her own even againt that giant robot. The first match she lost not due to her being weak but due to her mental issues after what happend with zaheer, she had kuvira beaten in the avatar state in two hits. And do not forget that zaheer nearly got away and she got him with this chains putting him on the ground. Think what would have happend if he got away while Korra was in that bad state. People can hate her as much as they want but there are facts! Sorry. Last thing people always say that Aang was a better and stronger avatar, well no and stronger? 100% no (debate was over when creaters said that she would (and I quote) "beat the crap out of him"
Agree with everything you said but please base kuvira is equal to base Korra 😂.... And no one can win against the avatar state but we can't actually really tell because for kuvira to tell Korra she can use the Avatar state in a battle she intends on winning I think she still had a few tricks up her sleeve even if Korra didn't have a mental breakdown. Kuvira is the strongest fighter I've seen in the whole show and she was totally beating Korra in the mech suit before they were interupted. But Korra only wins in the avatar state
Calling them "average to expert benders" is pretty biased. If anything, Aang had it way easier than her. That's just a fact. There were way more benders in legend of Korra than the last Airbender. Even metal and lava benders. Zaheer would've mopped Aang with airbending alone.
Zaheer was losing to Tenzin, and Aang is way better than Tenzin. Tenzin managed to fight Zaheer's crew alone. Aang would be an overkill. Her villains are weaker except the Dark Avatar
Well my problem with Korra is that she is so poorly written character witch annoying personality that I just wasn't able to watch show with her as main character anymore.
Correct it’s known that they were supposed to only have 1 season of korra and Nickelodeon forced them to produce more which is why character development after season 1 disappeared and writing took a nose dive
