    no. it's soulless. Korra is unlikable, it feels like a teen drama. the last season the show runners were literally using Tumblr for story arcs

    the one positive is the music was fantastic

    korras design is the best in all of avatar. her character isnt as bad as people say, its just really bad. the core-team is unlikeable. didn´t care for love triangle bullshit that didn´t even go anywhere, didn´t care for the mechanic-rich-girl, didn´t care about the surprise-lesbian shit.
    the most charming character is a sidecharacter used for comic relief, who also overstays his welcome if i remember correctly.
    3/4 arcs are forgetable/garbage/forgetable garbage. the only kino arc is with the bald anarchist dude and his posse, wich is the third i think. the first arc is eh, the second is the biggest pile of bullshit i´ve seen since then and the last arc was promising but ended in a big whiff.

    tldr. no it sucks

    they had some good concepts but occupied the main characters with angst and love triangles. Tenzin was too old to be liked, Korra too angry and self righteous. Bolin and Mako had 0 interesting scenes beyond season 1. The whole arc with Rava and anti Rava was really boring, the avatar origin story was kino, but also didn't add much.
    While metal bending is cool, there isn't much you can do with it and the AoT police were stormtrooper tier. The last season is genuinely not worth the time to watch it.
    tl;dr, the best thing LoK added was another chapter of 4 elements trainer

    Korra is an annoying c**t.

    However it's worth watching for the episodes in season 2 that explains the origin of bending and the avatar, as well as season 3 which was pure kino

    It’s kino, and I’m not afraid to say otherwise. Builds the universe from ATLA in a natural way. Both in technology of the universe and in the ability of the benders. Presents more adult topics than ATLA. Korra is a solid character, with a completely unique arc and problems/strengths compared to Aang. Where Aang was unsure and initially unwilling of his role as the Avatar, Korra is head strong and too self certain leading to her own failures and triumphs

    Where it really shines is the villains. Amon, Kuvira, and Zaheer all have justifiable motives, sympathetic back stories, and unique personalities/goals. This is exceptionally rare in a kids show, yet Korra villains are some of the best in modern fiction, especially compared to similar genres (cartoons and cape shit). Especially Zaheer. Contrast this to ATLA where the fire lord was just a generic Saturday cartoon bad guy.

    Where the show suffers:
    - Korra teen romance drama
    - no arc or character approaches the quality of Zuko and Iroh
    - more serious tone, less whimsical kino exploration

    My closest media comparison would be that ATLA is banjo kazooie, a timeless classic that still holds up. While Korra is Banjo Tooie, builds on it in every way but is duller and not as whimsical/magical as the first, but still worthwhile to do as a fan. If ATLA is a 10 then Korra is a 7-8. The second season absolutely blows tho you’re warned

      You forgot to add that most of the side characters are REALLY, REALLY boring. If it had just been the Korra and Tenzin it would've been much better and helped to give the show a cast identity that sets it apart from ATLA

        not having a writing staff really damaged the quality, but not as much as being initially told they were only getting one season, then two, then four. no one could make a good show under those conditions.

          I agree, hence why I said most. If I could rewrite the show I would've had the main characters be Korra, Tenzin, Bolin, and Varrick, and that's only if Bolin wasn't such a pathetic whiny loser and more of a Clark Kent type.

            Yea, I’d also remove Korras dyke heel turn which was clearly just to placate the tumblr crowd. Foreshadow Kuvira a bit earlier. Maybe make her a secondary character throughout the series who gets tired of Korras failings and decides to take things into her own hands to make the final season more impactful. And take season 2 back to the drawing board. Also kill off Mako because the show clearly didn’t know what to do with him

            Mako/Bolin could have worked they just never really did anything past season 1
            Mako never had a personality beyond being a sullen husbandu bait for the Twilight fanbase, so once they finally gave up on the romance sub'plot' he was a piece of wood.
            And Bolin never got any development or moments to be competent like Sokka did, he was a pure comic relief buffoon.

              Bolin got to learn lava bending and had arc of his own though, and his comedy moments were genuinely a highlight of the series

              Agree on Mako though. He was a clear secondary protagonist insert in season 1 and supposed to be the male lead of the show and did nothing with him that you forget he’s even a character later on.

              The love triangle stuff is fine IMO because the show rises above it and Korra realizes she has to work on herself first. Until they take the tumblr bait and force two characters to be lesbians despite zero hints until that final season

                'Learn' is a stretch, he just acquires it as a new superpower like all the other bending types added in Korra.
                The lack of training episodes was one of the worst parts

                >Until they take the tumblr bait and force two characters to be lesbians despite zero hints until that final season
                It was a shitpost, people who weren't there when the show was airing don't realize how big the Korrasami meme was in the community at the time. Bryke were constantly reading tumblr/reddit threads and throwing in hints to frick with people.

            I'd add Sokka as the bridge between series.
            Have him as the Uncle Iroh type as a foil to Tenzin, and make it appear he's a bumbling has been who drives Tenzin insane, until the pivotal moment where he reveals he's still got it.

      Agree for the most part. TLoK was a victim of cancel/hate mob of late 00s to mid 10s. Bieber, Prequels, Twilight, Nickelback etc. People would start to unreasonably hate something and pretend it's the worst thing ever, and it would snowball to such an extent that it was impossible to stop the hate bandwagon and change anyone's opinion.

    No.
    If you liked any detail about Avatar that was unique to the setting, Korra finds a way to frick it up.
    It also takes pains to frick up pretty much every TLA character that isn't Katara, and even that was probably just by accident.

      Shit like this makes me think people criticizing the show either didn't watch it or are very stupid and don't understand the terms they use. Korra is legit moron, like an actual sub 90 IQ femGrug, and she's a complete frick up. The farthest thing from a Mary Sue or a girlboss. She's relatively strong, but that's because she underwent proper avatar training and spent her entire childhood preparing for the role, and wasn't some self-taught country bumpkin.

        Did you watch the show? Her characterization begins with her being a toddler loudmouth knowitall with an adult mastery of the elements beyond anything seen in TLA. I'm not even going to wade into the shitshow of debating the definitions of "girlboss" or "marysue" but she behaves like a jackass, is praised for it and is a prodigy with no effort to boot. Call it whatever you want. I call it obnoxious shit writing.

        Yea most miss that Korra was supposed to be a foil of Aang, and that her initial confidence wasn’t because she was capable but was actually over confident. Then she gets broken down and rebuilt into someone more balanced (entire theme of the series was that villains weren’t wrong they just took it too far and balance was key)

        Aang was hide in iceberg because he didn’t want to become avatar but eventually accepts this responsibility. Korra was gung ho ‘im the avatar and you gotta deal with it’ before eating humble pie and realizing she has a lot to learn. It’s brilliant character parallels between the two and allowed them to be similar yet go on completely different heroes journeys

        As the other dude said it just got sucked in with the Reddit tier hate on shit trend and brainless like the ones in this thread mistook her as a Mary Sue when it was never the case

      What’s funny is during its live run it had zero cultural impact. The show got poor to average ratings. Despite being “adult” it didn’t reach across to other fanbases that well. And almost no one really cared or talked about it during its run.

      Meanwhile shows like SoongeBob, Adventure Time, and DBZ had much much much more crossover appeal and cultural impact.

      ATLA has a ton of stupid kid shit in it. Zukos arc though is legitimately one of the best in any piece of modern entertainment

        Disagree and dumb post. Amon was never going to have a great in-universe answer to his powers. At the time people legit thought he was Aang lol. Him revealed to be a fraud also parallels the stand in for communism that he represented where those wanting equality just want power. Him being a blood bender made sense and his death was kids show kino

        Zaheers mission made sense in that universe, killing earth queen was bad ass, as was his attempt to kill the avatar. Per usual with the show though villain wins until avatar state just wrecks everything. Him not dying but serving as a guide to Korra in the next season also a good nod to his complexities as a villain

        Kuvira just reclaiming lost earth kingdom territory and rising to the power vacuum created by Zaheer. She wasn’t as charismatic or fun as the red lotus but a good take at opposite side of same coin

        I’m not an anime gay so can’t comment there. But name another show or series with a similar audience that did villains as well as Korra. It’s literally the biggest highlight of the show

    It starts well but the second season is senseless and the fourth season turns to woke pandering rather than a proper conclusion to the story
    It suffers a lot from a lack of a greater all encompassing theme and narrative like TLA had, being way too episodic and broken.
    The secondary characters are mostly weak and sometimes even forgotten, and Korra is annoying as frick, but some of the villains and storylines are based.
