- In Korra and Kuvira's first battle, Korra knew she was coming in at a disadvantage-- while Korra was still in a place of healing and recovery, Kuvira was at the top of her game! Despite the powers of the Avatar state, Korra's own self got in the way of victory and she suffered a devastating defeat. Regardless, this battle is certainly one of the greats in Legend of Korra!

Korra's voice actress in the studio recording 500 takes of "AAAH" and "UHHH"
Especially in the game lol all you hear the whole game
@@Morbius-Tension*rubs hands* finna play this game
😂😂😂
Druski: What do you mean by that?
a little sus ngl
Kuvira really is an experienced bender. Shes agile, powerful, and delivers NASTY counter attacks. Shes really underrated
I dont think.shes underrated at all, she had an army whole follows her because shes so op and she beats up the avatar multiple times.
@@jebes909090she beated a weakend avatar, as soon as she went into the avatar state she flew like a rag doll
@@AnimeZone247anyone would fly like a ragdoll against the avatar state
@@zarkahmed3199 yea that's what i said, here let me repeat it, "she beat a weakend avatar, as soon as she went into the avatar state she flew like a rag doll"
What I hate about Avatar is that how can someone with just one bending beat the Avatar with four bending, that's just what makes me dislike Korra, and I still love her because she admitted that she is the worst Avatar and has failed in many ways, I HATE KUVIRA WITH PASSION
it makes sense why korra lost, she lived with poison in her body for 3 years, leading to not making a full recovery. this was her first actual fight since zaheer, so she's still getting back at it - like an injured, boxer who hasn't trained in a while fighting a match. not to mention still dealing with her loss of connection to the past avatars. girl went through it, and they expect her to bounce back like nothing happened.
Literally nobody expected her to bounce back lol. Everyone was warning her to not do it
I think he refers to us...the "fans"
@clonnlijinhlong2713 On the contrary, she was urged to rush in, turn on the Avatar State and fight Kuvira straight-on by Suyin, Jinora, Opal and probably a couple others I can't remember. We the audience knew that wouldn't work, but they both weren't along with Korra for her recovery and were desperate.
@@dalepalmitier7114 They knew she wouldn't win THAT'S why they told her to use the Avatar state at the beginning.
@@clonnlijinhlong2713 That last line makes it sound like you're criticizing her for fighting Kuvira, when the WHOLE time she was telling Kuvira and everyone else that she _didn't_ want that to happen.
1:35
Love that detail of Kuvira realizing something’s wrong with Korra.
kind of like a "hmm that actually worked" cause Korra's an earth bender as well 😅
I guess
Never noticed that.
I didn't realize that 😂
@@BhBc8f8I think it's about Korra sloppily slide on the ground. She should not fell that way.
crazy that symbolic of her not using ANY waterbending is her not playing reactively at all- its all aggression
That...and there were no visibly available water source for her to use. It's actually funny, she learned from Katara, but did Katara not teach her how to pull water from thin air? Or even bend her sweat? We know she taught Korra healing, so, aside from bloodbending, why didn't Korra have those in her arsenal. Missed opportunity for TLOK in hindsight.
@@mythking541TLOK is an overall missed opportunity, the show was only intended to be one season from thr very beginning. It's kinda depressing
Or maybe because there isn't any water here
Korra left herself wide open at way too many spots and Kuvira was more than happy to exploit each and every one of them while breaking her down mentally. She's a bending genius.
Korra was in no place to fight anyone. She still was poisoned.
@@vocaleditz9483 she was no longer poisoned at this point she was just rusty and suffering from trauma
Aang managed to beat buffed Ozai while being a child with no special battle training.
Korra, on the other hand, was specifically trained to be a warrior and yet somehow lost to a regular bender without any buffs. Doesn’t sound right
@@nikitamyazin6586 What?? Aang got absolutely destroyed by Ozai. He nearly died. If that rock didn’t touch his back and activate his avatar state he would’ve lost.
@@nikitamyazin6586Aang was nearly killed two times in the series, and only one of them was by Ozai.
Korra was suffering from PTSD in this instance. Have you never heard of post traumatic stress disorder?
She uses her bending as if it is an art. It is a privilege to watch her fight.
U sound like one of her followers…🤣🤣 she is pretty cool though
She was a dancer so no suprise
Amen brother
Bro has been on kuviras rehabilitation camp
1:31 love the little detail. While Korra’s rocks are simply misshapen blobs, Kuvira’s are perfect rectangles. Great way to show how precise and in control she is in contrast to the avatar.
This fight really highlights Korra's shortcomings, even aside from the PTSD and physical trauma. She treats her bending attacks as simple extensions of arms and legs; a thrown boulder is just an extended punch, a gust of air is just an extended kick. She doesn't really demonstrate too much creativity (like Kuvira hitting her from multiple angles, controlling her limbs, shifting the ground underneath her, etc.).
Ironically enough, korra not using big range attacks (that isnt earth bending) is her downfall for this fight. Kuvira's style is a precise style of fighting that resembles boxing's weaves and sways. Should korra use a big blast of fire, kuvira should have trouble and go on the defensive which opens a lot more doors for korra.
If you look at other seasons and other fights, her attacks are much more creative and just powerful. But in this fight she really only punches almost
This fight is not indicative of Korra’s fighting style generally and I wished people would stop extrapolating from it like it was. This is Korra basically at her lowest. She doesn’t fight like this anywhere else in the series.
Also she throws a feint at 0:59 and seconds earlier she used earthbending to change direction without telegraphing it. Even here she’s not as basic as you claim
@@terribletimes902she fights like that in the entire show my guy. She just a punch/kick girl
I may not be a fan of LOK in the slightest. But even I have to admit that Kuvira is one of the most stylish and pleasing to watch Benders in the entire series. That smooth and clam motion with the cocky and collected domenior almost reminds me of a more sane Azula in a way. Love her.
Imagine a sane azula 🤯🤯
@@wtfRowdy You dont have to imagine, just watch ATLA
For the same reasons i really like the way they make the Beifong sisters fight. All the metal bending in this show looks really cool. Also the season with zaheer imo probably did the best for airbending even more than The last airbender. Zaheer and tenzin did some amazing feats, more so zaheer. Really showed that if the air nomads werent as peaceful as they were they cpuld have arguably been the most dangerous benders out there
@@wtfRowdy😠 never give!!!!
How can you not be a fan of LOK, it expands the original story very well with much better animation, music and battles. And with just as original characters as in ATLA.
"I know you're a little rusty."
"Looks like the Avatar is a little off her game."
"Come on, Avatar! Get up! Show me what you've got!"
"I knew you were weak."
Kuvira sure knows how to goad her opponents, if nothing else.
Seeing this makes me realise how strong kuvira actually is using metalbending.
It's not really "strong" in that sense. I'd say it's more so, she's immensely skilled and experienced.
You are both delusional... Kuvira isnt even real... this is a cartoon... plus kuvira had plot armour to help her immensely @@mihile4631
I love that korra fights like an mma fighter. shows her history and what generation she’s from without even needing context.
I noticed that too especially at 0:58
Love it
As a lover of MMA myself, I love it too. Makes me so happy
It’s the “pro bending” style she got from the tournaments with Mako and Bolin.
not only korra but the fights in genereal in tlok are like this, all the bending styles were reduced to look simple and the movements were reduced to look the same despite the element, korra herself bends all the elements like she is bending fire, and use way more fire than any other element, witch is funny since she was supposed tob e the water avatar
I like how kuviras fighting style is similar to boxing, she’s uses slips and rolls to reduce movement and use of her stamina, she also uses footwork to make her opponent attack and tire themselves
This is what I mean when I say the villains made the show. Kuvira is one of my most favorite characters in the avatar universe
In my honest opinion I felt that Korra's enemies were her real bending teachers than the White Lotus.
Amon showed Korra Strength.
Unalaq showed Korra Power.
Zaheer showed Korra Spirituality and Freedom.
And Kuvira showed Korra Skills.
And by the ending of season 4 when Korra fought the giant Mech, and Kuvira one vs. one and stopped the spirit weaponed, it showed how much she have learned from her enemies
@@josephcruz6616this is a very interesting point
Also, Korra was brutally outmatched by all of them, physically and ideologically. She never won against Amon, only exposed his lies to his followers. She won against Unalaq only with the help of Raava and Jinora (ok maybe this counts as a win for Korra). She was also obliterated by Zaheer and only survived due to the help of others. It is only in Book 4 that she not only learned from the antagonists, but even defeated an antagonist in an 1v1 battle and showed the antagonist a new light. It is only then that she has the high ground in both power and ideology
@@StephanMok Actually, she did kind of win against Amon using her airbending. She blasted him so much he didn't have a chance to recover and bloodbend her.
Edit: Not to mention she RESISTED his own bloodbending, which is legit such a powerful feat. Because Amon was a bloodbending prodigy, who could bloodbend without even moving a muscle, AND who resisted Tonraq's bloodbending.
@@josephcruz6616Now explain the difference between power and strength.
Kuvira really is a powerful metal/earthbender, for not having special abilities like flying, taking bending away or a dark avatar boost. My favorite villian in the series.
Definitely. But arguably her special power is that she is more prominently a metal binder . The variation although more commonly learned in that agr , still is something that most earth binders will never do and she does it it with precision
Other than Korra's PTSD and recent recovery, I think Kuvira's greatest advantage here is the fact that she spent nearly her entire life honing her earthbending skills to their absolute limits. Korra, on the other hand, had to learn all 4 elements, meaning she had to spread out her training to use them all. In a nutshell, Korra can be considered a jack of all trades, while Kuvira is a master of one.
I think that’s the case with all Avatars. Aang was never the best with any element besides his native element, of which he was the last practitioner. We never really see much impressive waterbending moves from Aang
@@MrKingYuji dude Aang had like 1 year to master 3 elements +avatar state all while fighting a war
@@NeMo505707 Katara had less time than that to master waterbending and had less power, but she still showed much more skill than Aang before Aang started mastering other elements. I’m not taking anything away though
Avatars just take more time becouse they need to master them all Roku was a beast in every element @@MrKingYuji
@@MrKingYujikorra was born a water bender..
I love how korra just trying to brute force every attack. Always being predictable. While kuvira is extremely resoursful and creative with every movement
Korra is a brute for most of the show, honestly. Finesse was never her strong suit
@@derek96720well she is aangs opposite makes sense
Disagree it's just her style in the second fight she fought the same way and didn't have much priblem beating kuvira
her bending skills are so bad. She trusts only on sheer force. No creativity, no stability, no bending basics. Fire needs a strong breath and disciplined/strong emotions, she wastes her breath in useless weak attacks, and her emotions are confused and undisciplined. Water needs to understand the opponent offense to counter it, she always attacks. Earth needs to be able to tank the opponent offense to wait for punish the mistakes of the opponent, Kuvira does it perfectly, but Korra has no root to stand on. and Air needs to move with the opponent to force him to fall himself. Korra knows using the elements, but she doesnt know how to master them. Each time she is opposed to a master with better bending skills, she loses or she is in great struggle.
I wouldn't ve surprised if Kuvira is actually a descendant of Avatar Kyoshi. She is so savage and brutal.
Her mindset as well.
Earthbender azula
@@gahiduhudagi6685 calm, collected, sane and no mommy issues azula, she's an upgrade
@@newrandom7114no mommy issues? she seems to have problems with lin beifong who she looked up to as a mother figure
@@bellrains not get mother+ having one big fight with your mother doesn't equal mommy issues, she had a problem with her methods and they reconciled in the comics. So she does in fact have no mommy issues
The way kuvira bends is so satisfying
Korra really showed a lack of mastery and adaptability in the use of any of the elements in this fight. She just lashing out with all the elements using basic attacks. While Kuvira and Zaheer with only one element showed their mastery and adaptability of their elements in their fights. They showed that having those qualities made you formidable against any element even the avatar.
Give me one time zaheer beat korra in a fair fight
@bluestacks7075 "fair fight" If you're fighting the avatar, it's never a fair fight unless they haven't learned to bend at all yet. The Avatar will always have the advantage in a fight since they know more than one element and have master them all in previous lives. But if you can defeat the avatar, make them run away from a fight, or if the avatar is in need of rescuing, then I would count it as a win for the attacker.
@@tyroned114 Still not considered a fair fight. Zaheer was a master martial artist who was stated to have the capabilities to beat any bender on his own, so with his new AIRBENDING? Saying that "fighting the avatar isn't a fair fight" is an excuse to disprove any of Korra's fights. And no, the Avatar won't always have the advantage. That's only if they fight benders who are beginners or not skilled in their crafts. We've seen multiple characters who have had the ups on Korra while she was stated to have at least gotten proficient in all four/three elements; among them Amon, Unalaq (unfused with Vaatu), and like I stated, Zaheer himself.
not me yelling at korra to USE YOUR METALBENDING
i think she’s still a little traumatized from that lol.
Can you believe this air almost 10 years ago?!?
Bruh you just made me feel so old
I know this fight is supposed to show that korra is still rough and traumatized but they could've let her land more than two shots man 😭😭
It shows that if you want to fight a strong enemy like kuvira you have to more than your 100% which korra wasn't she wasn't totally recovered from her trauma and wasn't ready yet to fight kuvira so i think the fight was pretty accurate
Korra wasn't physically and mentally there whatsoever in this fight. So of course she lost badly to an opponent who is in peak condition.
@@asimb0mb Peak condition and easily one of the best fighters.
😂😂😂
Kuvira with that Mayweather movement
Korra was going through a very difficult situation, yet she was able to defeat kuvira, and in the end korra was able to protect kuvira with infinite strength, there are many reasons that indicate that korra is the strongest Avatar. I love Korra so much❤✨
like TLoK or not, Kuvira is one of the most satisfying earthbenders to watch. Can't think of a single earthbender who is as light on their feet as Kuvira
absolutely
Aang says hello
Tenzin says hello @@kinda_cold_in_the_closet
@@eseimuededestiny801 pretty sure those are air nomads, not earthbenders. Except for Aang but his earthbending is still the heavy feet based bending like Toph does.
@@Killerwale-hk4wy do you remember whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Toph named Aang twinkle toes
Aang is literally almost impossible to hit in fact he and Tenzin and other master Airbenders would be the worst possible opponent for someone like Kuvira
Yes this fight was cleannn 🔥🔥🔥
I really felt awful for Korra. They brutalised her throughout the show. She went through so much more than Aang.
And learned nothing. And somehow she has won. Yeah, such character much development.
@@user-tn9wk5os8z Korra went from hands being thrown on sight to a pacifist who's last option is to fight in season 4.
@@AGLSuperSaiyanBroly I agree. She's had great character development. The only thing I disliked for her is how she as a person had development, but her bending and fighting did not at all (aside from s1 discovering airbending). She didn't grow her bending at all, nor actually "master" any of the elements the way we see some people who did (Tenzin, dogwalking Zaheer until the others joined - Min Hua and her insane waterbending uses, Kuvira and Su intheir fights..) I expected her to do some crazy feats by the end of the show, but she didn't really so it was a bit of a disappointment. :(
She definitely learned something don't lie now @@user-tn9wk5os8z
Bruh Aang lost everyone he knew and was constantly on the run from everybody 😂😂 what you mean
I tell you what, as a character, Korra is most interesting and easy to root for in seasons 3 and 4. This was the story telling for her that I wanted in the first 2 seasons
0:05 when you actually are rusty, and it’s observable
When were comments activated? Very nice!
See at 3:10 Korra could’ve redeemed herself and won the fight. BUT because of her PTSD, she couldn’t. This shows the struggles of trauma and stress to your body, the way you fight, and even the way she thinks. smh.
That last fight with Kuvira was Korra's OG moment. she proved to the audience that she was not a weak Avatar
I hate when people use this fight to "prove" Korra is a bad avatar when she's literally fighting with poison in her body. If anything it's impressive how she was able to fight as she did in that state.
I think the poison was out of her by now but she was still struggling with PTSD and flashbacks. I think this fight was meant to illustrate how she can have all the power in the world but her mind is her worst enemy. She also hasn't fought in a while so there's that too.
@@uncleiroh6494 Nah Korra was a h03
@@uncleiroh6494 It's also been in her system for 3 years, the physical after effects aren't gonna disappear overnight. If this were real she would've lost her kidneys by now or be on dialysis.
@@BhBc8f8 Yeah she was moving way slower than she usually does probably because of what you mentioned. I kinda overlooked the long-term effects of the poison when I watched this fight since the main focus of it was on her mental health.
Korra’s a bad avatar cuz she ended the cycle.
korra only thinks about her actions in a fight, never what the opponent wants or how they could counterattack. i think kuvira demonstrates absolute superiority over korra here, she’s outclassed in every way. kuvira could’ve ended the fight at any point during it, she chose to make a mockery of korra and demonstrate power, truly a capable leader
Not only that but kuvira seems to have some deadly movement speed. She literally made it look like korra was moving in slow motion the entire fight lol.
Korra should’ve use fire bending lol when she enter the avatar start
She's changed/grown a lot. S1 Korra def wouldn't have any qualms barbequing her as
I mean, she should have lol. It was clear Kuvira was not going anywhere other than toward Zaofu. This fight was the equivalent of “over my dead body”.
From the last fight I think it's very easy for kuvira to dodge any other element but air. Because in the show you can't actually see it
Kuvira needed more screen time as the villain her motivations were so rushed
She lost so much of her muscle mass compared to s1. Really shows how much shes been through
Kuvira is a very dangerous opponent
yes
@@MarvelAvatarandothersI know it's a cartoon but the way she's focused and countering Korra... Clearly she's a master of her craft. A rival to be reckoned with.
Funnily not as azula, that’s why I was really disappointed in korra
@@maryhughie4070 Oh I do love Azula. She was just amazing.
I would love to see Ozai VS Kuvira.. she had confidence to fight Avatar in full power.
I love this fight so much. It's nothat Korra is bad, it's that Kuvira is great.
Imagine a simple metal bender, being greater than the avatar😂Korra is a big disappointment tbh 😩.
@@maryhughie4070 imagine a simple fire bender putting the Avatar into a coma. Oh wait Azula did that to Aang...
@@theknight27 Very weak argument I see from y’all, it’s getting old. Don’t be slow, Aang wasn’t “battling” Azula at the point he was struck when will y’all get it. You all know what really happened at the ba sing se, but pathetically always want use it as a reason. Regardless y’all birdbrains want to say, Aang is/was a better and stronger avatar/bender than sister korra. Ka
@@maryhughie4070 cant blame korra tho she was still rusty and was coming back from being poisoned for how many years, she isnt a dissapointment .It is easy to judge without being in someones shoes
@@maryhughie4070well she was beating him before she struck him with lightening so still a valid claim
The fights in this show are next level
Kuvira I would compare to Count Dooku in terms of fighting style. Very clean and crisp, waiting for a slip-up then exploiting them. I'd say even with Korra on her A game (minus the Avatar state) Kuvira could still win.
Did you watch the second fight ?
Not at all. In their second fight, Korra was fully recovered and dragged Kuvira without the Avatar State.
@@mihile4631 stated by the creators kuvira would have won... They were exchanging blows and in the first scene kuvira completely beat her
kuvira's earthbending style is different from the traditional earthbending. it is much more like airbending. most of her moments are dodging the attacks. She might be an earthbender but she uses the style of airbending.
Perhaps, but it's clear that her (Kuvira's) fighting style is boxing. 100% that is a orthodaox boxing stance and those are classic boxing evades. I can see that as being like a mix of air/earth but idk boxing too me seems more...earthy than it does air.
Let's not forget that Kuvira's main fighting style is metalbending rather than full earthbending. She occasionally spews earthbending, but for the most part she uses just metal.
i dont agree with it. It s more fast than basic earthbending yes, but the philosophy of Kuvira is neutral jing, the basic of earthbending, wait, endure and punish the mistakes of the opponent.
Let's be real Korra went through way more agony than Aang ever did 😂😂
I think overall her villains were a lot stronger too. Azula and the fire lord were really strong (zuko towards the end of the series), but after the that it kind of trails off.
Not to compare but getting your whole country killed and being stuck in ice for 100 years sounds pretty rough.
@@tysmothers Aside from Korra having stronger enemies, Aang's teammates were stronger too. No disrespect to Mako and Bolin..
Most self inflicted however
@@shaokhanwins1037ya obviously aang's teammates were stronger, Katara and toph were the best benders of water and earth element respectively
Kuvira got those Spike Spiegel vibes
What I like about Kuvira is her footwork and how almost every move is also a setup for the next attack she throws, easily switching between offense and defense
Not that the outcome actually mattered in the end. No way Kuvira would have just packed her things and left, had she lost.
I was thinking the same exact thing. The only way Kuvira would have been stopped if she were killed, along with her army. Aside from that, there was no walking away from a “fair” fight
Exactly. She would have order her army to attack. Had Korra killed Kuvira, it would have made things worse. She would have become martyr.
Kuvira with the neutral jing or whatever King Boomi was talking about!
perfect use of neutral jing yes ^^
I love how they want to make the elements equal by all means, but seriously the last scene with the tornado, you're telling me no earth bender could've shielded themselves by making a tent or something?? Toph would've been really disappointed 😂😂😂. Also they could've sent a wave of metal plates their way like bullets and with their high speed and narrowness, they would've cut through the tornado like it was nothing. Not all elements are equal, they all have different uses and that's okay. I remember Toph saying Earth bending can take down both of these sissy elements combined (air and water) 😂😂😂
Kuvira was probably shocked bc she knew Korra wasn’t herself
The Narrowness doesn't help, it's a cyclone so the wind makes contact perpendicularly. The flat nature of the metal means it has lots of drag if the wind isn't hitting it directly. They could block the wind affecting soldiers, but the tornado is just a delaying tactic.
I always thought of it like , air binding always catches people off guard because the only time they will ever see it it would be by the avatar which would make it too late to think of counter play
Finally comments be activates
My favorite part is when she starts using air bending and it works. Then proceeded to not use it. Then 2 kids using air bending stopped a whole army from advancing. It is almost like the show need her not to use it so she would lose.🤷
where did you see it working? air did nothing the whole thing. Kuvira just dodged all her attack and overpowered her until she used the avatar state, air bending wasnt the thing that was working, the avatar state's sheer power boost was. Korra also kinda just brute forces herself through the fight while kuvira is kinda thinking things through more like using the metal to throw her around, the earth to change her position and hold her in place etc
@Mango tenzin's chuld and her friend just take her out in one air push and then proceededto stop the whole army. It was 2 children mind you. Then there is when she briefly goes into avatar mode. The main issue is how if she lead with air bending kirra would have had an easier time. She only lost because she got mad after starting to lose.
Remember, perhaps, that Korra is still dealing with heavy PTSD. She's been kidnapped, tortured and poisoned by GALLONS of mercury, leaving her paralyzed for multiple months. The show decided thankfully not to display PTSD as: "oh the poison's out, it's okay" and furthered it with mental health. She isn't able to think straight in this fight. Her body is still traumatized by fights.
@@comptgoogl4471 gallons? When were there gallons used?
@@runerdude141 why is that what you took away from that...
I know this is a kid’s show and that they can’t be too brutal, but strategically speaking, all an all-powerful being like the Avatar would have to do to end this conflict is bring one of those mountains down on Kuvira’s army. It wouldn’t matter how many earthbenders there are, they couldn’t stop a WHOLE MOUNTAIN from completely coming down on them.
Shes not that strong but korra could have definitely did more powerful moves instead of acting like a mma fighter
@@brythebest8307 she carries half of a mountain during her fight against Zaheer and that scene she was currently poisoned so just think a scenario were she wasn't dealing in that poisoned she could've do a lot of impressive things by not just carrying a half mountain maybe the whole mountain.
Man, a blast of fire with air bending right behind it would be devastating. Remember what firelord ozai did with his fire blast? An avatar state korra could burn the whole army or at least give them nasty 3rd degree burns. There would be nothing they can do to block it because the air blast pushing the flames can wrap around shields.
We see a whole lot of fire being stopped by an earth wall in animated movies but irl any big enough blast of fire would wrap around the wall and give the person ducking behind it a serious burn.
Fire also has 1 realistic advantage that is never shown in fiction is heat strokes. 1 blast of fire towards someone could give them a stroke due to the sudden change in temperature and pressure of the immediate atmosphere. This could pop their ear drums (like how it feels when an airplane ascend) or burst arteries (aka a stroke)
@@handey1Korra wasn’t poisoned anymore here y’all should stop the cap
@@maryhughie4070Learn how to read. They're talking about her fight with Zaheer on the mountain tops and she was poisoned during that fight.
I really like how physically fit korra is
She's actually quite skinny here compared to her earlier self. Not in fit fighting shape like she was, but that's what 3 years of trying to deal with trauma does to you.
The other Avatars were probably embarrassed to watch this, but also felt bad... Aang took the controller from Korra for 10 seconds and brought Kuvira's health down to 1 with those air blasts😭
She wasn’t at 100 percent in this fight btw
@@DaNNi2774 I know, don't worry ^ If she was, the moment she entered the Avatar State Kuvira would have been smashed pancakes under that rock
Technically, she lost the connection to her past Avatars at this point, so they couldn't have exactly done anything here. It's why her Avatar State is more primal-like post-Season 2 versus the voices of all the past Avatars.
Seriously guys the avatar state is the strength of a thousand benders . The fact that she could still even stand after one blast shows how strong kuvira is
*Kuvira Acts Like A Great Artist At Really Bending But Korra Is More Struggling.*
isnt this like right after 3 years of physical therapy and finally removing the last of the poison in her?
@@marngaoyes. people think just because she got the last bits of poison out of her body she would be immediately at her peak again. THAT would be actual bad writting. girls spent 3 years under a poison induced degenerative decease, couldnt have proper fighting teaining or even fight something for real. also PTSD.
Something that I love is that Korra received help from an earthbender (Toph) to heal her body and an airbender(Zaheer) to heal her mind. Love that shows how both elements are in a way more related to the mind or the body
Korra lost because of a lot of reasons. She was not ready to face Kuvira at that time, she was not focused, did not have enough training in metal bending, did not work through her mental baggage from going up against the Red Lotus. Kuvira won because she knew her element and owned it (earth/metal bending). It sucked that Korra lost but she learned a valuable lesson from losing to Kuvira. She learned to get her mind right and to stay focused in a major fight and she got over her trauma from the Red Lotus. And when she went up against Kuvira again...she was ready.
The neutral jing is strong with that one
If korra wasn’t hallucinating season 4 would’ve ended right then and there
If you're gonna go that road. If Kuvira didn't hesitate....she can literally end Korra several times during the fight.
@@clonnlijinhlong2713 he?
@@clonnlijinhlong2713 of course she can't I think your probably don't know how the Avatar states works.
@@handey1 did you forget that azula literally one-shot aang in the avatar state
@@kinda_cold_in_the_closetoh that kid of course he isn't paying attention to his surroundings and lastly Aang doesn't have direct connection to his Avatar Spirit 'Raava' while korra she is 100% connected so basically Raava would assist her.
i never really understood how people were able to dodge air attacks like that. Like are you just taking a guess on where it was aimed? its not like you can see it
Truth
The air is probably so forceful it’s seeable like a tornado
@@dragonflarefrog1424 No, I don't think so. Only actual tornados and large-scale air attacks like the whirlwind Jinorah and Opal created later would have been visible. But most airbending feats were stated to be invisible
Sheeeshhhh she got washed!
Kuveira put Earth bending on the map, she's so clean. Not saying Toph is in anyway worse than here just bending in Korra was so sophisticated compared to the last airbender.
This fight is a perfect example of, even if you might be more powerful than your opponent, if you lack the exsperience, and all you know how to do is throw a stright forward predictable attack, you will loose, thats why i always told my friends that even aang with only air bending at 12 could of beaten early korra, cuz all she knew at the time was how to throw her elements not move to the flow of them or use them efficiently, she uses every element like its only coming out of her body like simple minded fire benders, just shooting in a stright line, thats why toph and kuvira could so easily bob and weave out of the way of her attacks, its exactly the same as when azula was unstable and zuko knew he could tske her, cuz in her unstable state he knew she would just launch predictable attacks in anger and not be crafty like she usually is, and use her bending to its fullest, kuvira took advantage of korra's mental state and moved the battle to her flow, its almost like she and toph were dancing with korra and they were leading her to move exactly the way they wanted her to.
Opal and Jinora casually airbend more powerfully than avatar state Korra
Korra fights like a regular bender. She keeps for forgetting shes the AVATAR.
Yall forget about the second fight they had?
Yea where Korra wins 60/40 at best? Watch it again they were still even
It was a draw and kuvira was still quicker than her
@seb6220 the one is the robot? That everything inside was made out of metal?
@@ParisPanteli-et1uqif you're thinking that's an advantage Then I don't know what to say to you. Kuvira like an Airbender fights better in an open field where she can move around and Korra can also metal bend
Wow straight to the point
0:49 hit her with the 1-2 on both sides
You know what? I love air bending more than I thought I would.
Korra was so overconfident in all her fights and still lost unless got help from someone. I was rooting for the villains lol
Korra is a jack of all trades master of none. While Kuvira is a master of one
Korra fights with so much energy, the same way zuko use to in the beginning of avatar.. and that’s not proper🫠
That's not what is happening here. Korra is actually animated slower than usual, she's not recovered yet.
I would’ve crashed out instantly after the metal blindfold 💀
This series gets a lot of understandable flack especially considering its ending and the needless explanation of the avatars existence but they really deliver with their villains and how the show bendings ups and downs. Amon took away bending and gave a voice to those who couldn’t bend and how they felt about people who could, zahirr and the red lotus were a group who hated the avatar for being such a powerful being, and kuvira is especially interesting because while Korra is the avatar she is a master of none of the elements she bends while we see the opposite in Kuvira who has spent her life earth and metal bending
Kuvira is moving like Bruce Lee lol
Imagine Kuvira vs Amon.
I want to see that fight
Amon would most likely win. I can see it being a close call, since Kuvira could sneak in a few metal shards here and there between his bloodbending. But overall he could end her easily if he wanted to
She could just create a metal shard and pierce him immediately. If she was bloodlust
Turning ineffective dance on martial arts into a so much effective earth & metal bending. Usually positioning your back to your opponent is deemed to be ineffective or just downright useless and dangerous, but she just did that move to evade or activatinh her bending technique. Flawless victory indeed.
Harkins back to how zuko learned to keep calm and collected while fighting
Korra is too angry while her opponent is calm and focused
And, just like Zuko for most of the series, korra grunts and emotes alot while attacking.
@@Delta_Aves yeee which zuko stopped doing after he learned from the sun warriors.
I dont like how the martial arts concept is gone they all look like kickboxers
it isnt gone at all, there is still the original martial arts of each bending style in the show. some characters just do what iroh did in the original, incorporate the styles of other nations in their bending. for iroh he incorporated the techniques water benders use in order to redirect lightning, eska and desna look like they incorporate earth techniques into their water bending, and kuvira's fighting really looks kinda light on her feet like airbenders compared to the usual firm and planted stances earthbenders use. Its not even odd since the series take place after a war that kept the nations divided, its end means it was just a matter of time before cultures spread.
Are you kidding? Have you seen how waterbending got in this show? Ming Hua's use of it was insane, and lavabending/metalbending got some pretty nice choreographies. The way Tenzin moves is also cool.
I'd add that in this fight Kuvira had boxing/MMA moves, but was also extremely precise and agile.
That's still a martial art 💀
You're either blind or clearly don't know what martial arts means
If you look at legend of korra the style of bending has definitely evolved. It’s evolved into quick paced fighting rather than drawn out duels
Kuvira is like Bruce Lee… counter punching, the way she dances. Very cool to see.
How you go into the Avatar State and still lose
PTSD
PTSD bro watches fights with his eyes closed
Because she’s the weakest Avatar to ever live
She had her soul ripped out, and she shrugged that off, so no.
he got a point@@I_love_kitten_
Kuviras boxing go
Dumb😭
Any bender with logic would just bend her armour around her tight haha
I don’t think that would work on a metal bender. The only person that technique was used on was Varrick, a non-bender, and a scene in ATLA showed earth-benders can easily escape earth shackles, despite their hands being tied, so the same logic would apply to metal benders.
Metal bending is a bit more specialised, easier said than done.
This makes me wanna see an avatar that knows metal bending and all the other sub genres of bending.
Next in line is earth. I want to see a lava-bending Avatar (I don't mean like in Avatar:The Last Airbender where going into the Avatar State could allow one to bend pre-existing lava sources, I mean how Ghazan and Bolin are shown to do it, heating/putting pressure on rock to create and control lava)
Kuvira reminds me of Count Dooku here, while Korra reminds me a little bit of Anakin.
I have never seen an earth bender so agile .
thanks for not youtube kidsing this
1:29 Now how did an Earthbender hit an Airbender…. IN THE AIRRR!!!
I love that Kuvira is voiced by Zelda Willams, Robin Williams’s daughter🙂
Airbenders are very powerful, it only takes just 3 airbender kids to give a whole army of earthbenders/metalbenders some trouble.
They should have stayed longer to see what will happen. They did that just to slow them down
Kuvira was fighting a Korra that was physically,mentally and spiritually less than 60% we all know korra at 100% would destroy Kuvira in a moment..she's very strong😅
Bc she is the avatar😭 that isn’t even fair tbh
Defenitely my favorites books are 3 n 4
Kuvira honey she is incredible in how laser focused she is and nothing stands in the way of her ambition ultimately she lost her husband and went off the rails at the end.
Korra: big attack,windup,flashy kick punch
Kuvira: jab,small atk, quick counter
Anyone trashing on Korra forgetting she removed the poison the day before and was still healing physically and not even close to healing mentally
She was outta practice for 3 whole years!
Insane animation, great character design and peak choreography. It’s a shame the show has terrible writing because it could’ve been amazing
3:16 why was Kuvira's eyes glowing, is she also flowing into avatar state... no right but sill can someone explain what's happening at the moment
or is korra just imagining her ...
Korra has PTSD over her fight with Zaheer which has caused her to be haunted by the version of herself that was poisoned in the avatar state. Before this battle, Korra removed the rest of the poison so everyone thought she had finally recovered but in that moment the vision haunted her again and it was on Kuvira. That's why Korra was shocked out of the avatar state
Something about Korra getting whooped makes me happy she was too overpowered
Overpowered how
Azula if she was an earthbender😂😂😂
Without the insanity
Something you guys don't realize is that Korra was actually buffed in season 3 when she learnt how to metal bend . Imagine she didn't it wouldn't even be close even if she entered the avatar state
