The Legend of Korra first 8 episodes available on Patreon: www.patreon.com/shadowreactions Also you'll get the second Avatar video soon, Imma get some sleep real quick tho so a bit of delay. The fire nation attacked my house so I had less time today but I handled it with Gunbending
This is a very powerful episode, one of my favourites for Katara. It's a great message about dealing with grief and revenge. Part of me did actually want Katara to go through with it too. And I wonder if this wasnt a kids show on nickelodeon if they had actually gone through with it. But in the end revenge changes nothing about the events that already happened and just leaves you empty. Though as she points out, not going through with revenge is not the same as forgiveness. Her confronting him is one of the most chilling moments in the series. Also the Suki Sokka moment is absolutely hilarious.
I love that they showed there are multiple ways you can deal with painful things. And that some want / need to forgive and some don’t to move on. It’s different for everyone
I really think that Katara was affected a bit more than Soka due to the fact that katara and her dad ran to save her mom BUT it’s implied that they just went inside their house to find her body in ashes/dead. Katara actually saw the body presumably burned. In my opinion
Hope you read this comment! Crazy theory: remember in the Hama episode when she told her story it showed Hama with a person that looked like katara with hair loops also. Well that would be kataras Grand gran/gradma. The time fits perfectly since they are the about the same age. Well when Hama escaped the fire nation prison with her blood bending the news must’ve spread throughout the fire nation army that the southern water tribe can make some really powerful benders that can bend blood. So when they heard there is still 1 bender left they went for the bender BUT now chose to not take prisoners!!! Because they couldn’t take the chance of having another blood bender being made out of necessity!! Hamas blood bending technique is the reason why Kataras mom was killed instead of taken prisoner!
Also if you think about it, there might be a traitor among the souther water tribes people. The dude states his informant told him there is one bender still
You catch that pun near the beginning of the episode? The morning after Sokka tells Zuko what happened to their mother, whe Katara and he are going to take Appa, you see Sokka making a flower necklace. That was a visual pun added by the animation team. It's meant to confirm that Sokka got some the night before. He got "lei-d"
in my humble opinioon yan ra is serving his punishment he may not be in jail where I would kind of like to him but hes living miserable as his mothers servant if thats not fitting punishment or karma as we like to call it i don't know what is
It’s actually never confirmed whether or not it’s a night of a full moon during Kataras southern raiders arc, which has led a lot of fans to theorize that she is just kind of…Strong enough to do it. (Not sure if confirmed in the comics though)
The confirmation for me was in LoK. If Katara had used bloodbending without a full moon here, the people in book 1 of LoK wouldn't have thought it was impossible without a full moon. It wouldn't have surprised everyone when Tarlock used it on Korra without a full moon, and Yakone wouldn't have a defense lawyer who's entire case was built on the fact that it was common knowledge that bloodbending was impossible without a full moon.
Also. I'm not going to necessarily defend what Katara said to Sokka about their mother. It was out of line and completely unfair and untrue. At the very least, we should have gotten an apology from her before the episode ended. At the same time, it kinda goes back to how Zuko used to treat Iroh through books 1 and 2. They say mean, and sometimes downright cruel things. But Sokka, just like Iroh whenever Zuko acted that way towards him, likely understood that Katara didn't necessarily mean what she said, and that it was said out of hurt and pent up anger. She was lashing out, because of the pain she was feeling in the moment. You'll notice that Iroh never once rose to any of the mean or cruel things Zuko said to him when he was lashing out. It's because he knew that Zuko didn't mean what he was saying, and that it was just Zuko reacting to his pain and hurt.
1:08 More of a bombs, but sure. 1:55 That was a cold line for someone, who isn't just a firebender, but have hottest fire among them. 2:03 The more they changed, the more they stayed the same. Azula still lied :D 2:07 He had a visit to Dragons. Azula not only haven't, but just got backstabbed TWICE in a span of less than an hour. Yeah, I'd say it's reasonably even fight. 2:58 TO BE FAIR, Appa WOULD do that. 3:20 On the top of another ship. You got distracted? ;) 4:09 Cut the BS, Zuko. 4:13 He said in the designated Katara & Zuko Life Changing Road Trip (tm)... 4:44 HOW DO I TELL YOU... 6:16 Of course he have low patience. His first girlfriend turned into a moon. That's rough, buddy. 7:16 And here you thought we're done with the bomb after Azula's attack. 7:47 OH FOR FOX ANTELOPE SAKE! Toph isn't even in the scene! 9:22 "A Fate Worse Than Death" exists. Just sayin'... 9:58 She's making her own water. 10:22 So... You missed that one too? There was moon in the background before that tower talk, and DAMN IF IT'S NOT SOME HUGE (pun fully intended(this one too)) FORE_SHADOW_ING! You getting old, my man :D 10:55 Sounds like some rapper with face tattoos and stuff... 11:21 See what I mean? 12:32 DANG IT, HAMA! 12:46 Sure did. 12:53 And that's why every time there's a poll around the lines of "who would be the worst if you got on their bad side", Katara is usually up there on the top. 13:07 SLY SOB 13:40 The thing you'd only understand if you had bad mom yourself. And I'm talking like BAD bad, not just on the level "she slapped me for failing in class". 14:03 Told ya. 14:11 OUCH. 15:39 That, and the bond between kids and parents is different. Reasonable to assume, that Katara was closer with mother and Sokka with father. 17:20 Yeah, 4-parter together seems reasonable. Counterpoint is one video length would be pretty dragged, and possibly would be a nightmare to edit/render.
I'm low-key relieved that I finally found someone else totally bothered by what Katara said to Sokka back there... I honestly get where she's coming from and how strongly she feels abt the issue, but that was really unkind and unnecessary. ...then we see in this same ep. how Kaya's face is pretty much the female version of Sokka's and it's just 💔 (esp. when you think abt him telling Toph how he barely remembers what their mom looks like.. *sigh*)
Yea she was way outta line but it‘s forgivable if she apologized which I’m sure she did. She was emotional but yea that was a crazy thing to say. Nice observation with the similarities between sokka and his mom I didn’t see it right away but now that you say it

One of my favorite episodes!
Just wanted to say that I love this reaction channel! You do a great job with genuine reactions with thoughtful reflections as well
Thank you so much ❤️

The continous ,,tough'' to ,,Toph'' jokes kill me everytime xD
@@shadowreacts As you might've noticed, I love running gags :D
If you want something quick i would suggest arcane after avatar
Arcane was actually the very first show I did on this channel. Back with a shitty camera and shitty audio lol
7:22 unfortunately it happens offscreen.
I'm low-key relieved that I finally found someone else totally bothered by what Katara said to Sokka back there... I honestly get where she's coming from and how strongly she feels abt the issue, but that was really unkind and unnecessary.

55분전 58분전
i like reaction vids. but not if they react to every single sentence. bro paused like 6 times in 30 seconds
Fair enough bro 👊🏼 appreciate you giving the channel a shot it‘s not for everybody. I love my pause button 😍 Have a good one 🤟🏼
I'm glad he pauses. Better than missing parts because he's talking about something that happened 20 seconds ago.
