Just a quick thing on Legend of Korra (Don’t worry, there are no Spoilers)

Hey, just wanted to make this quick note now that Korra has finished up and everything and I have seen the finale. Don’t worry, I won’t say anything that spoils anything that happens. As more of I just want to speak my mind a bit on Korra as a whole.

You see, Legend of Korra in my opinion hasn’t really captured me as much as the original series that the series is a sequel to. It’s had it’s ups and downs, and while some of those ups are really, really good that can match with some of the best of A:TLA (Example of ups in the series IMO, the Series Finale that just aired. As well as an episode earlier that explained how the Avatar came to be). But the many downs have unfortunately really limited the series from reaching it’s potential (Ex: The Love Triangle from the first season, the lame fartbending jokes and childish stuff that was usually given to Meelo (Though to be fair there were at least two Meelo moments in the series that did legitimately make me laugh, one of which was actually in the series finale itself), most of the villains either too obviously evil and/or not that interesting or didn’t last long enough to really be all that effective, missed potential in several areas, etc.)

But at the same time, I don’t mean any disrespect to Korra because while I will forever maintain that it doesn’t hold a candle overall as a series compared to Avatar: The Last Airbender. Korra has had some really enjoyable moments that have made me glad that I’ve followed for the entire ride. I’ve enjoyed seeing new characters, seeing the return of some of the old characters, new inventive ideas, and seeing how the world that we loved so much in the original A:TLA grew in the many years that this series takes place after which.

All I want to say is, thank you Bryke, while Korra as a whole wasn’t perfect. I am nonetheless thankful that they brought another story within the same world that I have enjoyed watching ever since I first saw Katara and Sokka free Aang from the Iceberg.

Thank you so much :)
