i really thought that said "more like darkness false am i light"

Lightning189

Ah, the episode where Bryke kill off all the Avatars for a bit of shock value.

Chibi

Vaatu's laser has the same sound design as the Reaper Beam. The mind is conditioned to associate that sound with utter annihilation. Edit: I just assumed La killed Zhao and trapped his spirit so he can never reincarnate or find Nirvana.

Your point about people getting really mad about the characters instead of the writing is so real. Sadly, female characters get hit by that line of thinking pretty hard, it's pretty annoying. Some people get really passionately mad at them like they're a real girl who like..I dunno, broke up with them and kidnapped their dog or something. But yeah, the Book 2 finale is pretty lackluster despite it being like the most MASSIVE STAKES EVER!!! I do like that they do try to do some actual change in the world for the future seasons, it's just...everything else is just meh.

I like to think Vatu's spirit laser beam only hurts a persons spirit. Not their body. And maybe bending does a little of both damage. Maybe like physical damage from the element but also a little chi damage?

On one hand yeah destroying the Avatar cycle does irrevocably change the world, but it doesn't really change the series. Korra never had much communication with the past Avatars and losing the past Avatars doesn't seem to change the Avatar state much. Oh, but i do kind of like how it starts a new cycle where the previous one ended with Aang represented by the Airbender statues

I never had the subtitles on, it's crazy that's how you spell Unalaq. Also I disagree with your thoughts on Kora in Avatar state being uninteresting. Even if they made her as strong as Aang. They would need to wright her more like Superman in those moments. Overly sarcastic productions has a great video on superman I’ll drop a link. https://youtu.be/RXdiCgBxNEQ?si=24v4eZsvLEfD0vJx But in summery - You make people for the avatar to save and make them squishy. Keep Soka and Asami because they are smart and perfect for our avatar to save. - Make the fight in a populated Area so the challenge is tricking the Bad Guy out of the Area so we can go Avatar State. - Make the environment dangerous to others. Avatar vs Valcano, Team Avatar vs The Meteor, so on - Make The bad guys squishy. It’s not that Aang or Kora can’t just kill the bad guy or enemy army in avatar state. It’s our morals that stop us from stomping anyone out. - The Avatar cant be everywhere at once. I know it’s a cheep shot because Aang inst fully realized yet but at the end of book one water. Aang vs the Fire navy fleet. “I Must have taken out a dozen fire navy ships but there are just too many of them”. Or multiple threats like at the end of ATLA. Fire lord, Azula, the blimps and taking back Ba Sing Se. No disrespect I love your work. Im honestly just making Fan fic at this point

My head cannon about Korra speaking to Rava, I just thought it was cause of harmonic convergence and when she fused with Juan she spoke 'we are now one' or some sh*t, then never again after only until Juan died.

My Rant about this season. The killing of the past avatars would have been ok with me if they made this an actual real good fight. Korra always be losing for some reason, like she never wins... plus the logic of the world which goes off the rails this season only add to the fact that although this is a tangible loss, the ending (next episode) where this gets resolved, just feels disappointing. In Airbender, we saw when they lost (invasion or ba sing se), they were pretty much not limited by the plot. So the battles felt intense, but here we just see Korra written to get beaten (badly) and sometimes we can't even fathom how she lost or how her enemies got the help they did other than it is written in the plot to happen this way. When events happen in this season, it seems like it was written to be like this otherwise it doesn't work. In Airbender, the major battles were realistic in a way that there was a back and forward. Even when our gang had troubles, they were able to either run away and come back later, or there was a well thought solution written.

Syncron

If she didn't speak to Wan that one time, I would have believed it was due to Harmonic Convergence, but since we know she could have... it's just another plot hole that if you think about it, makes you really dislike the finale and the season more and more.

Syncron

Hey, I think your point about Korra never having communicated with the past avatars is what the writers should have put more work into with Korra this season honestly. Roku once said, "the avatar state is a defense mechanism, designed to endow you with the strength and knowledge of all the past avatars, the glow is the combination of all your past lives, passing their strength through your body", so I feel like if you were going to destroy the cycle and start anew (that's fine), but at least give Korra the strength that we were told previously, and if her opponent is strong enough to beat her, let that happen, then write a solution that just comes out of nowhere (hence the next episode).

Ordice

I still don't understand why hitting Raava destroys the spirits of the past avatars. Raava comes back, she can be reconstituted, wouldn't it be the same for the avatars she supposedly carries with her?

Myrottinsoldier

I think Korra could feel each avatar being destroyed because it was 10,000 years of her past lives who used to be with her, her whole life, suddenly being ripped away

On my last rewatch this episode was so hard to sit through

Sargent _Carrot69

its very likely that the Zhao we see is his spirit. Zhao probably died pretty quickly in the fog, and now his spirit is trapped in the fog.

mclevy

Does anyone know what the song is that plays when vaatu wins?

El.Camino

I like to thing zhao WAS murdered in hot blood, but his spirit was trapped and stolen

18:06 actually i thought there was this problem in the Northern Air Temple episode of OA. you outlined a great point about how the conflict is basically one-sided -- the mechanist and his people are defacing the temple and aang is totally right to be pissed at him. and then when aang comes around at the end of the episode you say "well if aang's cool with it, then i guess it's cool." but it's the writers that made aang cool with it because they needed to wrap the episode up. which, yeah, probably best that we didn't spend more time in the northern air temple hashing out this conflict, but it doesn't mean that the conflict wasn't one-sided. even if it's its new shell, a hermit crab should not be installing air conditioning in machu picchu
