Just remember, ATLA was the story of an avatar that never wanted to be one in a world that needed one, and learns to accept it. Korra is the story of someone that always wanted to be the avatar in a world where they dont need one as much anymore, and she has to learn to be a better person.
Thank you. I always hated the criticism of Korra because it wasnt just the same show again. The writing is great and the fight choreography is phenomenal.
@@Kevin-qp6ow same, but there are moments in this show that just deserve to be criticized and talked about, but it being different than ATLA and is thus bad is not it.
@@peckyporkh yeah, Korra has plenty of its own issues. What bothers me is definitely the comparisons and also the fact that a lot of the ATLA community that dislikes Korra doesn't accept any criticism of ATLA. ATLA was not a perfect show either, but if you mention it's flaws they get PISSED. Like sorry guys, no such thing as a perfectly written show.
You noticed that one of Aang and Katara's kids was named Bumi, after one of Aang's closest friends. But the other two kids have meaningful names as well. Kya was named after... Kya. Sokka and Katara's mother. As for the one we're focusing on, Tenzin? He was named after a real life Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso. If that last name sounds familiar, that's because AtLA had a character named after him - Aang's airbending master and friend Monk Gyatso. So ya.
Thank you for noticing that Korra is a sheltered teen (and that can come off as annoying), she doesn't have the trauma or weight behind her that Aang (Last airbender and the avatar in times of war), Katara (lost her mother to the war), Sokka (the only boy left behind in the tribe as well as "losing" his father) and Zuko (banished on a hopeless search and scarred by his own father) had at the beginning, if anything Korra's the most like Toph at the point she's at.
YES! So glad you're starting this. I love Korra so much. Her show has its ups and downs at first, but as a character she's phenomenal. One of my very favorites Side note: The inspirations for Republic City were primarily New York, Hong Kong, and Vancouver
Really? What part of shallow unlikable dickhead who ruins everyone's lives do you like the most? The part where she constantly attacks people who are trying to help her? Or the part where she never learns her lesson and the entire world still seems to like her despite her catastrophically poor choices?
I hope you guys enjoy your journey through Korra, there are so much great things about the Legend of Korra that keep the show really fun, interesting, and entertaining
@@gamingchannels2726 Terrible romance, asshole main characters, villains with cool bending abilities and physical designs, but have such asinine logic when it comes to their goals that they look less cool, just to name a few.
@controlman7490 terrible Romance that was a part of their characters, so it wasn't that bad to me they was pretty young, and how they built up the characters made it obviously it would have that. I don’t think every character should be nice and cuddly we need characters that are assholes. thought you were going to put out some major issues, but you know those are subjective opinions, so understand if you and some didn't like it
You can say Avatar also got the "Sequel Curse" like Naruto with Boruto.. Inuyasha with the daughter's anime which i already forgot what its called, Yashahime(?).. etc. BUTT i can assure you Korra's quality is not as bad as Boruto💀
I LOVE Korra! Its important to know thay they only had a contract for 1 season when they started. S2 was greenlit very suddenly and was not expected. So the pacing is very very different from ATLA. Its much faster and has a lot more action.
I'm actually one of the rare people that prefers Korra to ATLA. Obviously it has some flaws, mainly caused by the network messing things up, but I really do just like where it goes so much more. Also that soundtrack.
I love how u guys point out she's a teenager plus she's been secluded all her life so yes she is very bratty arrogant and cocky, so her character development to be the avatar is going to be LIT
HELL YEAH, WE ARE STARTING THE NEXT, WONDERFUL JOURNEY!! 💙 I am too excited to write a proper comment but thank you SO much for reacting to this show!! My heart is full of joy! 💙
Considering how much you like spunky hard-headed characters with nuance, you're gonna love Korra. I'm surprised to see you guys started it so soon, most of us needed some time between series to just bask in the Avatar Universe before launching into the next era.
So one neat detail in the Avatar universe is that every new Avatar kind of makes up for whatever they regretted/lacked in their previous life...since Avatar Aang had to learn all the elements from scratch in just a few months, in the next life Korra is born with all her knowledge about bending so that Avatar wont have to do that again....similarily Avatar Yangchen was very devoted to her Avatar role but had no personal life so in her next life Avatar Kuruk went "go with the flow" and focused more on his personal life rather than his duties but he died very young but then in next life Avatar Kiyoshi in order to make up for that lived for 200 years but she never found any love/partner in life...Roku found love very early in his life but his regret was the hundred year war and Aang did end the hundred year war.
It's best to be mindful that Korra has been sheltered her entire life in that compound. She's going to make a lot of mistakes because of this, and a lot of people tend to not like her because of that. However, she's learning how to be a human since she was really only taught how to be the Avatar while growing up.
While looking through posts online, I saw that someone asked "Who killed Aang?" I assumed this person had heard about Aang dying but hadnt watches the show. And one of the replies was "Korra did" and it was the funniest out of context moments I've read😂😂😂😂🤣
They do not confirm in the show: Aang died at 66 and Korra is 16, so 69/70 years have passed since ATLA finale. Aang died fairly young because he had constantly been using the Avatar State for 100 years and the strain basically took years off of his life. Also, nobody ever comments on the fact Katara and Aang named their daughter after Katara and Sokka's mom.
(I had to stop reading at 'constant avatar state taking its toll' (more info than I hoped for 😅) but I'm glad it wasn't much more detailed Is it something not mentioned in the show? I stopped around early S3 so I assumed it was age, or a battle that killed him, or smth else, so it's like...dang
@@jasmine9581onfirmed by writers via social media. Kind of like dying of old age while still fairly young. I also have my own ideas as to why it might have been accelerated, but that involves the plot of season 2. Long and short of it is you would probably want the Avatar to be in peak physical condition for the events of season 2, rather than a young child or old man. Also you should finish the series. Seasons 3 and 4 are better than 2, because when it was green lit for season 3, it was also green lit for season 4. It allowed the writers to know how long they had to tell a story. Also season 3 is best villain.
My favorite part of Korra is how they weren't afraid to not do repeat stories. Aang was about a person learning how to be the avatar all the elements etc. Korra is about the avatar learning to be a person. Her story is more about emotional and personal complexity rather than physical and mental like with aang. Korra was locked up for 17 years with no social life being told repeatedly she is the savior of the world and the best person in the world. Obviously she is gonna have some social issues and ego issues to work through. So I love both these stories that the avatar world has created!
I watched ATLA and Korra back to back as an adult, so I didn't have any preconceived notions or expectations. Absolutely loved both!! I'm somewhat glad I wasn't a kid easily influenced by other people's opinions when I was watching them, I might not have given Korra a chance.
I think the thing that you guys felt was off about the fights is that the bending choreography doesn't use as much traditional martial arts movement as it did in ATLA. While before bending was based off of different forms of martial arts, such as kung fu and tai chi, LoK uses a more MMA style of fight choreography for it's bending movements, which I feel is an accurate evolution of style in the universe, as benders in the now peaceful world would take inspiration from different bending styles to come up with different moves, like how Iroh developed his lightning redirection by studying waterbenders.
You enjoyed your journey through Avatar, and now i hope you enjoy your journey through Korra. To me in my eyes Korra is as much as a masterpiece as Avatar is. There is so much good stuff here. I can't wait for you to see it all.
@@TheSpiritOfTheHero I'm not 100% sure, but it might be. The biggest weakness of ATLA are it's villains. Zuko is kinda like a half villain, Zhao is a joke and bit way more than he could chew, Long Feng wasn't even a player, Ozai is an absent villain as much as he's an absent father, barely show up outside of flashbacks and then Azula has to carry the show on her back. Zaheer and friends are so great that in terms of a single Book... You might be right
I love both shows how difficult it was for the Avatar to learn a particular element. Aang had to get more physical with Earthbending while Korra had to get more Spiritual with Airbending. Moreover, it was stated that the Avatar's reincarnation is very opposite to their previous life. Korra and Aang's personalities are very opposite.
Don’t know why it took me this long lol but I just realized that since Korra was sheltered in a compound and taught how to fight in the 3 elements she knows to pass tests, fighting is her natural instinct and why it’s her first response to many things. The white lotus tried protecting her and making sure she could fight so much that it became her main thing
One thing about this series is that it was originally meant to be just one season. So the seasons don't neccessarily conncect to each other, with the exception of season 3 and 4
So glad you guys are jumping right into Korra! If you’re interested in seeing what happened to Zuko’s mom- the comics are cannon and DO she’d light on some things that happened after the events of the show.
13:20 The fights look different because they tried to modernise bending so instead of traditional martial arts bending is based off things like MMA & Boxing so it feels more appropriate for the time
Opinions are mixed because many people (myself included) consider ATLA one of the best, if not THE best animated TV shows of all time. TLOK had big shoes to fill. And even if it didn't fully live up, it's still a great, super fun and exhilarating show if you give it a chance! Season 2 is a bit blah, but Season 1, 3 & 4 are all GREAT television. (Season 3 is easily one of the best individual seasons of television I've ever watched)
I love Korra I hope you guys give it a fair chance. the negative reviews were just because people wanted Avatar the Last Airbender 2, but on its own this is a *good* show
I loved Korra watching it when it was airing! (ten years ago 😱) I'd say there's def stuff that doesnt hold up in hindsight (but then again I feel that about a:tla too) Korra def got more screwed by the production, like they were initially only given one season, then suddenly more seasons were ordered, so they were unable to plot out the whole story from the start but...! It's such a strong cast of characters (imo) I can't help but really like it
Some my most favorite avatar moments are in korra. It can be hit and miss for some but if you just go in thinking it's going to be a really good animated series then I don't think you will be disappointed
I can't sit through season 2 again but I'm pretty sure you guys will love season 1 and 3!! The most annoying thing about TLOK must be the love triangle trope and genuinely bad characters that you unfortunately never really get warm with or care about.
im so happy they went straight into it. not waiting for a like goal or anything. easily you can see the love they have developed that we all had. So excited to see your reactions to this new journey!
My headcannon is that Raava gave Korra access to the elements so early on because she knew that Harmonic Convergence was coming and she wanted the Avatar to be fully realized in case something happened and she'd need to deal with Vaatu if he escaped. BTW love your reactions.
I love it! It’s a completely different show, and people tend to use that against it. But it’s just a new generation, a new avatar, and a new world all together. And some of the coolest moments in all of those series.
My favourite meme from this episode is from the scene at the South Pole where they're telling her "Avatar Aang tasked us with keeping you safe". Korra should've hit them with "Bitch I AM Avatar Aang!"
You guys are going into this with the right idea. It’s the same world with new people and a new story. I heard someone else say they remembered when Aang’s story started off a little slower but really picked up in book 2 and 3. I’ll say that Book 3 of Korra rivals the best of Avatar the Last Airbender
More than a decade later and I just now realized Tenzin is J.K. Simmons aka J. Jonah Jameson from Spider-Man 😵 And I may be remembering wrong, but I think Lin Beifong's voice actress is the principal from iCarly, if anyone here watched that show. I also love the 1940s feel to this premiere.
At the end of ATLA they tease you with Zuko's mom plot line... Now they did it again It's like they're dangling it right in front of your face, but you gotta go read the comics (or watch a video about it) to know
It's been 11 years since I first watched this show. I've watched many TH-camrs react to this over the years and it was only on this reaction that I realized that Sato-mobiles rhymes with/is a play on automobiles...
saw this comment somewhere that differentiates korra and aang and their avatar-being: korra as “the avatar becomes human” aang as “a human becomes the avatar”
AAAA IM GROCERRY SHOPPING RN THO 0:50 looking forward to 1x2 most rn 1:39 hehe don't forget Kyoshi (The shaky cam yess) 7:27 heh you got it 8:16 Mmm tbe common reaction 9:37 Oo no music mention 9:57 this guy 10:39 convo skills are a facepalm 14:45 ive never noticed 14:58 training-- I remember reading some of the first lessons It started with like 3 students 16:47 I love the fabric animation on this turn 18:44 And the answer was 'go read' 🤭
About Zuko’s mom, formation of Republic City, and the fate of Azula…. Check out the comics they released. It chronicles the events between ATLA AND LOK eras. :)
yessss starting TLOK series. a lil side note that u guys should know is that TLOK was only meant to be one season, every season. so if it feels rushed or incoherent with the plot that's why but it honestly still all ties together with the lore and really good it dives deeper into the Atla universe as well
I understand that the first few episodes, you guys will still compare it to ATLA, look for similarities, look for the things you always love about the previous series and expect this and that that used to be from the past, but I do hope that in time, you guys will realize that LOK is a different show, it will eventually try to be a separate show that is more than what ATLA used to be and be okay with that. When you start to accept that this is a stand alone show and not a continuation of the past, then you will also start to appreciate the world, the new characters and the stories and themes LOK are presenting us. Thank you so much for reacting to LOK. This is one of my most favorite shows of all time.

When I watch this series sequel, I forgot that Aang had to d13 in order for Korra to be born as the new Avatar😅
Considering how much you like spunky hard-headed characters with nuance, you're gonna love Korra. I'm surprised to see you guys started it so soon, most of us needed some time between series to just bask in the Avatar Universe before launching into the next era.
Fun fact: Naga is the original design for Appa

Small (and sad) detail: Korra is older than all of Tenzin's kids, which means that Aang never met his grandkids. 😢

And one of the replies was "Korra did"
and it was the funniest out of context moments I've read😂😂😂😂🤣
I actually really like Korra. I think one of my favorite aspects to this show is Aang's grandchildren. Can't wait for the rest of this journey
They do not confirm in the show: Aang died at 66 and Korra is 16, so 69/70 years have passed since ATLA finale. Aang died fairly young because he had constantly been using the Avatar State for 100 years and the strain basically took years off of his life.
Also, nobody ever comments on the fact Katara and Aang named their daughter after Katara and Sokka's mom.
Korra is 17 when the show starts though
Closer to 83 years since Korra would be born when Aang died
To be fair, they only say Kya's name once in ATLA. It's very easy to miss.

I heard someone else say they remembered when Aang’s story started off a little slower but really picked up in book 2 and 3. I’ll say that Book 3 of Korra rivals the best of Avatar the Last Airbender
It's not Avatar but that doesn't mean it's bad! Definitely give it a shot, it has some amazing moments and storylines down the road
Hearing "My father, Avatar Aang" for the first time is mindblowing
omg i can’t wait to see their reactions of some specific episodes
As a long time ATLA fan I really enjoyed watching through it again with you guys reacting - super excited for this series! Definitely keep doing this
More than a decade later and I just now realized Tenzin is J.K. Simmons aka J. Jonah Jameson from Spider-Man 😵 And I may be remembering wrong, but I think Lin Beifong's voice actress is the principal from iCarly, if anyone here watched that show. I also love the 1940s feel to this premiere.
At the end of ATLA they tease you with Zuko's mom plot line... Now they did it again
It's like they're dangling it right in front of your face, but you gotta go read the comics (or watch a video about it) to know
It's been 11 years since I first watched this show. I've watched many TH-camrs react to this over the years and it was only on this reaction that I realized that Sato-mobiles rhymes with/is a play on automobiles...
My kid and I have watched this show and AtLA over and over. Trust it is really good. More bending, more friendships, more bad guys...
This I’m excited to see your reaction to ! Legend of Korra it’s my favorite
So excited!!!
saw this comment somewhere that differentiates korra and aang and their avatar-being:
korra as “the avatar becomes human”
aang as “a human becomes the avatar”

Ayyye welcome to Korra, it’s a bumpy ride at times but it’s good
Wow you guys don’t waste time😅So happy you’re doing Korra. Can’t wait to see what you guys think. S1 and 3 are my favourites
Korra was the one I grew up with it was a very good watch
I subbed for this my bros can’t wait!
Excited for these reactions. Fun fact Amon is voiced by Steve Blum
SO EXCITED FOR THIS JOURNEY!!!! lovely to start a new series with you two. can’t wait for you to experience the beauties of this show
"korra saves republic city"... oh ttrust me shes gonna do a lot more than that... give her a chance!!!
that voice of taazin voice is J.K. Simmons
Avatar Korra is indeed built different: look how muscular she is.
OMG you guys are spoiling me 😍🔥💪🏾
Fun fact: the voice actor for amon also did the dub voice for orochimaru in Naruto
Book 3 hands down, gonna blow your mind.
One thing about Korra and fighting….you wanna razzle, she’ll dazzle🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The earth bender in the intro is Kyoshi
About Zuko’s mom, formation of Republic City, and the fate of Azula…. Check out the comics they released. It chronicles the events between ATLA AND LOK eras. :)
love legend of korra keep watching! but like you said remember its a different story and I think you'll enjoy it
Loved the atla reactions, excited for korra!
yessss starting TLOK series. a lil side note that u guys should know is that TLOK was only meant to be one season, every season. so if it feels rushed or incoherent with the plot that's why but it honestly still all ties together with the lore and really good it dives deeper into the Atla universe as well
I love Korra. I think you'll enjoy it too if you think of it as it's own thing instead of a direct continuation of AtLA
I understand that the first few episodes, you guys will still compare it to ATLA, look for similarities, look for the things you always love about the previous series and expect this and that that used to be from the past, but I do hope that in time, you guys will realize that LOK is a different show, it will eventually try to be a separate show that is more than what ATLA used to be and be okay with that. When you start to accept that this is a stand alone show and not a continuation of the past, then you will also start to appreciate the world, the new characters and the stories and themes LOK are presenting us. Thank you so much for reacting to LOK. This is one of my most favorite shows of all time.
bro already hitting on kind of the key theme of the whole series 5:00
omg I can't wait for you to meet Amon. S1 and 3 are my favorite
They're gangsters, they're benders, they're GangBenders
“i wonder if she’s gonna have her own crew” no she’ll have a Krew
did that man really just say new orleans??? lmaoooo
"It really took just 1 episode to go to jail" 🤣
