It's ironic 2 of the best episodes of The Legend Of Korra aren't even about Korra. Also, some fans believe that the old woman healing Korra is actually Azula.
Fun fact: the original creators wanted to tell this story in the original series with Aang but could never find the right time to include it in the story. Since Aang was already very in tune with his spirituality, I thought it was perfect that Korra was the one to go on this journey. And I love the stylistic art choice of Wan's story.
That makes sense, it would help give more context to the lion turtle that appears at the end of the series, and it would make him empowering Aang in the final battle not seem like such a random thing.
What I love about Kya is that despite not being an Airbender she’s the most spiritual out of her siblings. Tenzin is a lot like Katara and can be stubborn at times 🤣
Fun fact: The Avatar cycle happens in the order that Wan mastered the elements. Fire, Air, Water, Earth. And it is forbidden to forget that him originally belonged to the tribe that bends the fire, having in context the previous series where they were the antagonists.
In the beginning of the Avatar series during the solstice whenever Roku said to Aang that he could master the elements in a year because he already did it before.
Wan's story is one of my favorite bite of episodes in the entier series. I love when shows that have thousands upon thousands of years in their in universe history, going back to show a good chunk of that lore is my favorite thing.
I love how well the fire sages took care of Korra. Even going as far as putting her in healing water, which is their opposite element. It shows how much they changed since the war. Their hope and care for the avatar returned as the years passed.
It never was the creators themselfs stated thos was the priginal intent at no point was the abatar ever the embodyment of the world that was fan theories at best
Loved how that hard slab of earth hit Vaatu in the face! Many years later Steven Yeun (Wan) and J K Simmons (Tenzin) would co-Star in the superhero Amazon show Invincible! IF you have not seen that, recommend reacting to it. Season 2 begins in November!
No it doesn’t, it just carries on . I like how s2 is not afraid to kill its darlings and not depend on it , unfortunately this main issue is there is not enough episodes and it’s telling a lot of different stories, but nick really messed them over by never being straight with them changing budget , telling them they are green lit for another season then originally thinking they would not
Aang is the first avatar to know energy bending.. he got that from the lion turtle before his final fight with Ozai and he thought Korra in the final episode of the first season
Whenever I look at some of the spirit characters from these episodes, I’m reminded of the ones that are seen from Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away. I wouldn’t be surprised if the show creators got inspiration from those characters while working on the show.
Avatar Wan, let’s go! I love the fact that the OG Avatar animators took over the LOK series from here on in! The style of the animation looked SO good, it really captures your attention, as well as the backstory of Wan becoming the first Avatar. This part of S2 earned big points from me, the best part imho!
This episode right here is why tenzin had a hard time being a spiritual teacher to korra. And the next few episodes makes it even more interesting in their dynamic
17:26. Without light, there cannot be darkness. And without darkness, there cannot be light. The two must always co-exist. Push and pull. Tui and La. Yin and Yang. ☯️ ☀️ 🌙
Now, if you look back at the last, Airbender Roku said, if you die in the avatar state, the reincarnation cycle is broken, because if you die in the avatar state, you’re killing Rava
i told you Tim, it gets so good here, Avatar Wan was so good, & the Spirit he met & first attacked before later befriending, the Spirit who always called Wan "Stinky", that Spirit was hilarious, love that guy, & Korra fighting Unalaq & vaatu & then UnaVaatu while in the Avatar State, the lines "I'm locking you away for another 10,000 years Vaatu." & "You cannot win." the second of which she said after hearing Raava, those were so good, basically i think these eps are my fav part of the whole show, cause of Wan & that Spirit friend of his & Korra being so badass & everything. There is 1 other fight that kinda is a competitor for my fav moment from this show as well but i love these eps sm & you'll see that other scene & fight later Tim
Won's organ story of being the first Avatar is great story. And Vaatu turning innocent good spirits evil is not good for the spirit world at all. And it's very amazing that Korra is in the spirit world for the first time.
Oh man those episodes from Avatar Wan and Raava are amazing, I feel like every fan of the series needs to watch it at least once since it explains so much about how the Avatar came to be. I honestly like this season the least out of the 4 of them but it still has some fantastic episodes! Tim I just know you’re really gonna like the next one, i’m really looking forward to see your reaction!
Being the avatar is essentially a curse. Wan and all of his reincarnations are all being punished by being forced to perform an impossible task for all of eternity.
And so you have watched in my opinion the best two episodes of the Avatar fandom so far, the tale of the very 1st Avatar Wan and how and why the Avatar was created. I love watching beginnings of things and how it began.
I still can't believe that this man aka timotheereacts is getting married😮 and yess another the legend of korra reaction from THE LEGEND OF TIMOTHEEREACTS is back🔥🪨🌪🌊😁👍 and tim have a great day✌😎☀️🤙can't wait for next week reaction video to the legend of korra(and we are probaly getting the boss baby: family business reaction video Tommorow😉)
There is no good and evil. There is only light and darkness. The world will be thrown out of balance if darkness ceases to exist just as much as it would if lightness ceased to exist. That is the philosophy of Yin and Yang. ☯️
A lot of people are going to say this is the worst part of the series and Wan's as the first Avatar ruins the lore, but I personally love it. This season and season 3 are my favorites. Form your own opinion, but I'm just saying lol.
Also males the name avatar work an abatar is a human body of a spirit or a god like being rava basicly beong a god of light the avatar is her physical form at thos point
It's ironic 2 of the best episodes of The Legend Of Korra aren't even about Korra. Also, some fans believe that the old woman healing Korra is actually Azula.
With Korra in amnesia-town it's time to go back to the beginning, so far back even that the whole prior backstory on bending is retconned. Make no mistake, the story of Wan, the first Avatar, is still very good and it was a decent idea to incorporate Lion Turtles more, but it does slightly undermine the animals that were known as the 'first benders' were actually not the first (more they are the first to use it as a form) and the power was given to them by lion turtles instead. Still, Wan's story opens insight onto Unalaq's plan, to use Harmonic Convergence to release the supreme spirit of darkness, Vaatu, and as a result destroy the spirit of light, Raava, aka the Avatar spirit. Fun Fact: in ATLA there's a scene where Zuko passes through a battlefield that looks just like the one Wan dies in. Korra isn't the only one getting some spiritual help, it seems Jinora can also see the spirits, which comes in handy since Korra needs to enter the spirit world, and Tenzin - despite his pride - cannot. Meanwhile Mako is being framed due to Varrick sensing how close he is to the truth, and learning how he's unable to bribe him.
@@vetarlittorf1807 humans bended before they learned from the 'first benders' so yeah it is a retcon, since they didn't learn bending from them, just the forms used to enhance it
@@dannybob42 No they didn't. They just arbitrarily manipulated the elements without any skill or discipline. Bending isn't a power, it's a skill that people who wield the elements can learn. What do you think the point was to show Wan learning firebending from a dragon and the hunters reacting to it like they've never seen anything like it?
@@vetarlittorf1807 Wan learning from the dragon is learning the _FORM_ but Wan isn't learning firebending from the dragon, he already knows how to bend fire, therefore the dragon cannot be the first firebenders, additionally the Lion Turtles already demonstrate form of their own elements, so they would've been benders before them. The tale of Omashu also has Oma and Shu learn Earthbending from badgermoles as the first human Earthbenders, but we see Wan earthbend from getting it from a lion turtle city of earthbenders, so that is still a retcon since the statement that 'Dragons/Air Bison/Badgermoles are the first benders' is now untrue, since it's the Lion turtles who are the actual first benders; they just did it in the cheap 'from a certain point of view' way
@@dannybob42 "but Wan isn't learning firebending from the dragon" Yes he is. "he already knows how to bend fire" No he doesn't. All he knew was how to create fire, he didn't know how to bend it until he learned from the dragon. "additionally the Lion Turtles already demonstrate form of their own elements, so they would've been benders before them." Ummm...no? We never see the Lion Turtles bend the elements, we only see them bestow the elements to people. "The tale of Omashu also has Oma and Shu learn Earthbending from badgermoles as the first human Earthbenders," We don't know if that is true or not. All we know is that Oma and Shu might have existed, but for all we know their story is just a bedtime story. "but we see Wan earthbend from getting it from a lion turtle city of earthbenders" There were no earthbenders in that city. There were only a few people who got to use the power of earth once in a while but had it removed when they returned to the city. And they didn't bend earth. Like I said, bending is a skill, not a power. There's a reason why nobody during Wan's era knows what bending is. "so that is still a retcon since the statement that 'Dragons/Air Bison/Badgermoles are the first benders' is now untrue, since it's the Lion turtles who are the actual first benders" Again, no. We never see the Lion Turtles bend the elements. They simply gave people the elements and after the Age of the Avatar began, people eventually learned to bend the elements from the original benders.

Tenzin is more like Aang as both tended to be impatient and culturally conservative.
@@kcirtapelyk6060 Tenzin reminded me of Katara at least when he would argue with Korra bc it was a lot like when Toph joined team avatar lol.
Fun fact: The Avatar cycle happens in the order that Wan mastered the elements.
Fire, Air, Water, Earth.
And it is forbidden to forget that him originally belonged to the tribe that bends the fire, having in context the previous series where they were the antagonists.
In the beginning of the Avatar series during the solstice whenever Roku said to Aang that he could master the elements in a year because he already did it before.
14:57, Gotta love how airbenders saw a firebender and immediately started running lol.
Wan's story is one of my favorite bite of episodes in the entier series. I love when shows that have thousands upon thousands of years in their in universe history, going back to show a good chunk of that lore is my favorite thing.

Raava is just the equivalent of having three extra inventory slots😂 (until you learn to master it ofc)
I miss when the Avatar was just the embodiment of the world itself, the whole reason why it was called 'Avatar'.
It never was the creators themselfs stated thos was the priginal intent at no point was the abatar ever the embodyment of the world that was fan theories at best
A avatar is a physical embodyment of a god or spirit not yhe world
The place where Wan died is a location Zuko passed through during Zuko alone
The first Avatar is an awesome story
Loved how that hard slab of earth hit Vaatu in the face!
Many years later Steven Yeun (Wan) and J K Simmons (Tenzin) would co-Star in the superhero Amazon show Invincible! IF you have not seen that, recommend reacting to it. Season 2 begins in November!
Beginnings is literally my favorite part of all of avatar as a whole
This entire flashback/sequence is the peak of Season 2, from then it just goes down in writing (in Season 2)
No it doesn’t, it just carries on . I like how s2 is not afraid to kill its darlings and not depend on it , unfortunately this main issue is there is not enough episodes and it’s telling a lot of different stories, but nick really messed them over by never being straight with them changing budget , telling them they are green lit for another season then originally thinking they would not
It's peak Avatar actually. Even bettere than Aang's story, and I really like Aang.
Aang is the first avatar to know energy bending.. he got that from the lion turtle before his final fight with Ozai and he thought Korra in the final episode of the first season
Fun Fact: Serena Williams came back and voiced one of the fire sages
Whenever I look at some of the spirit characters from these episodes, I’m reminded of the ones that are seen from Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away. I wouldn’t be surprised if the show creators got inspiration from those characters while working on the show.
Sure, i mean the no-face character was kinda obvious. 😄✌️
Avatar Wan, let’s go! I love the fact that the OG Avatar animators took over the LOK series from here on in!

Been waiting for the Avatar Wan episodes!
This episode right here is why tenzin had a hard time being a spiritual teacher to korra. And the next few episodes makes it even more interesting in their dynamic
My favorite part of wan beginning is when he does the Dancing Dragon, because its so cool to see it✔
The backstory of the first Avatar were my favorite episodes of this season
congrats on the engagement Tim!
Thank you!
17:26. Without light, there cannot be darkness. And without darkness, there cannot be light. The two must always co-exist. Push and pull. Tui and La. Yin and Yang. ☯️ ☀️ 🌙
Wan invented the dragon dance that angg used
This is such great episodes, I was so looking forward to it. Great reaction as always, Tim 😁😁
Now, if you look back at the last, Airbender Roku said, if you die in the avatar state, the reincarnation cycle is broken, because if you die in the avatar state, you’re killing Rava
7:28 -
Me - Did you not hear them call it "the Spirit Wilds"?
33:42. Could this be a comedic metaphor for Mako doing drugs, and Lin is the angry mother who has just found out about his addiction?!
i told you Tim, it gets so good here, Avatar Wan was so good, & the Spirit he met & first attacked before later befriending, the Spirit who always called Wan "Stinky", that Spirit was hilarious, love that guy, & Korra fighting Unalaq & vaatu & then UnaVaatu while in the Avatar State, the lines "I'm locking you away for another 10,000 years Vaatu." & "You cannot win." the second of which she said after hearing Raava, those were so good, basically i think these eps are my fav part of the whole show, cause of Wan & that Spirit friend of his & Korra being so badass & everything.

Congrats on your engagement to Clariss 🍾❤️
Being the avatar is essentially a curse. Wan and all of his reincarnations are all being punished by being forced to perform an impossible task for all of eternity.
This is where the fun begins
The story of the first avatar. Also Vaatu is gonna be important later on.
23:28 IT HAS BEGAN
told you this season would explain
Awesome reaction but the title says episode 7 through 10 when it only went up to 9.
Yesss flashback episode time!!!!
And so you have watched in my opinion the best two episodes of the Avatar fandom so far, the tale of the very 1st Avatar Wan and how and why the Avatar was created. I love watching beginnings of things and how it began.
Love Your Reaction Videos!❤❤❤
Glad you like them!
I still can't believe that this man aka timotheereacts is getting married😮 and yess another the legend of korra reaction from THE LEGEND OF TIMOTHEEREACTS is back🔥🪨🌪🌊😁👍 and tim have a great day✌😎☀️🤙can't wait for next week reaction video to the legend of korra(and we are probaly getting the boss baby: family business reaction video Tommorow😉)
Iff look at it and then take into acount the healing i think that oasis is the north pole spirit water fron the last airbender
There is no good and evil. There is only light and darkness. The world will be thrown out of balance if darkness ceases to exist just as much as it would if lightness ceased to exist. That is the philosophy of Yin and Yang. ☯️
Best part of season 2
A lot of people are going to say this is the worst part of the series and Wan's as the first Avatar ruins the lore, but I personally love it. This season and season 3 are my favorites. Form your own opinion, but I'm just saying lol.
Did I miss something? You say youre doing the final 4 next week now lets look at episode 10 then video ends
Also males the name avatar work an abatar is a human body of a spirit or a god like being rava basicly beong a god of light the avatar is her physical form at thos point
"Beginnings," AKA- "We watched a LOOOOOT of Miyazaki."
cool
It's ironic 2 of the best episodes of The Legend Of Korra aren't even about Korra. Also, some fans believe that the old woman healing Korra is actually Azula.
Why would she do that
These aren't the best episodes. Venom of the Red Lotus and Korra Alone are.
To me, it's the best episodes of the entire franchise. Nothing beats it not even from the last air Bender to me.
Dude, you getting married?
Yup. He's engaged.
too much mindless talking
