Way better than people say. "The Storm" and "The Blue Spirit" are some of the best episodes of the entire show. The season was just fun. And it still had great character moments.
Book 1 was awesome we figured out who the avatar was his backstory. and the rest of the nations were Also introduced to sokka and katara which was great.
This is one of the best premiere seasons I have seen. It really started the show on a high note, even if not every episode is that great (And I don't mean "The Great Divide"). "The Storm" and "The Blue Spirit", are some of the peaks of the show in my opinion.
I realized YT wasn't giving me notif's for your channel and I was like "Key has to have uploaded at least one or two." Come to find quite a few up here. Stupid YT. I didnt give avatar a shot until i was around 25. It easily hooked me. Fantastic writing and character work has that effect on me. Korra otoh? I ended up taking a 3 year hiatus in the middle of S3 before going back to finish. Just didn't like it very much. Thought korra kind of stunk as a character and was confused by the massive lore contradictions, thinking I'd just been mistaken about stuff that was in ATLA. As I've watched other channels review LOK and ATLA I realized they did kind of mess up. But it makes ATLA shine even more
