@SuperboyLilly True. And this season is called 'Change' for a reason. But huge lifestyle changes aside, suddenly having powers and having no control over them makes a person a liability. Hmm 🤔 I wonder if the world of Avatar would have insurance for that kind of thing? I mean bending is considered a norm and accidents are most likely not unheard of
Tenzin should have just said that he acommodates for families as well instead of just going into assumptions that everyone will leave their family and home for a culture they don't care about.
It is exactly how he tried to force airbending to Korra. The classical way was not working due to her temper, she needed to find her own way. Just as the new airbenders.
@@polalak2 could have worked on the first guy but that one was worst possible choice for a long run. Tenzin made mistake by focusing on cultural part. Personally he lost me at vegetarian diet.

@@xx_Number1hater_xx I mean, to spend a lifetime feeling inferior because everyone in your family are skilled benders, and you aren't, then suddenly you get the ability - you'd probably be pretty stoked
@@jameshetherington1bumi was always the way he was, maybe because he couldn't bend, but Tenzin was the only one who payed attention to Aangs teachings and Aang respected his other kids wishes. Bumi seems like he gets stuff from Sokka and likely idolized him as a non ending hero more than his father, but he OBVIOUSLY is stoked that he can be like his dad and help save his dads culture
Well that and the fact he was always a free particle. He has no family to leave behind, always limited his possessions, and don’t really have a culture he hold dear enough to give up. In a…bit chaotic way, he was already living like a monk
He could have offered some lessons and classes to learn about his new element and to give new perspectives on life. Iroh was a fire bender, but he learned from all elements. Trying to uproot his life and force him to become a monk is against even the airbending teachings.
Yes, but Tenzin was focused on reviving the air nomad culture, it was the dream that he inherited from Aang, though both of them had come to accept they would have to take the long way, and that neither would see it come to fruition. For Tenzin then it was like a miracle, he wasn't thinking about the new air benders as individuals, just as part of fulfilling his and his dad's dream. He was blinded by this. And considering that being an air bender was almost a synonym of being an air nomad, unless the other nations where there is more variety, his confusion is understandable, I think.
I actually said in a previous comment that Korra was more empathetic than Tenzin here, probably because that even though she struggled to learn airbending at first, she always craved what element embodied, yet what she lacked her entire life:freedom. Yet as time went on, she became more worldly and experienced in conflict resolution, like an airbender
Well this is tenzin main issue. Due to his responsibilities, he grew with an earth bender philosophy. This is why he can’t go into the spirit world. He’s unable to let go, only to push and endure
Fun Fact: Nonbenders from all over the world gained Airbending. The United Republic, Fire Nation, Earth Kingdom, Northern, Southern, and Foggy Swamp Water Tribes, everywhere.
I don't think we see anyone from out of the earth kingdom become a new airbender. I had this headcanon that they were descendants of air nomads that managed to escape the attack of the fire nation. I think it is confirmed at least some did escape, as there were traps set up for them. They would have to hide their abilities and prevent their kids from developing them to keep them safe, so in a few generations, they wouldn't know they had it. Some might have passed it from grandparent to grandkids. And when the harmonic convergence happened, those dormant powers woke up.
@@p.anthony_xpert1013that's what I meant, but I wrote it in a confusing way. I was trying to say that we see airbender appear only in the earth kingdom, not from any other nation.
@@james13sylar in Avatar Legends we do learn about Airbenders from other nations like Enuk from The Southern Water Tribe, Maly From The Foggy Swamp Tribe, and Erdene from the Fire Nation just to name a few.
That airbending street performance was exactly what Aang would have done. Yep, Tenzin may be Aang's legacy, but he'd have adored Bolin. Even Mako's part is a hark back to Zuko, as well as what the Fire Nation did.
@SpicyCham There are different kinds of smart though. I wouldn't be surprised if Bolin had Asperger's since he's been shown to be socially awkward and naive but when it came to creativity and unique ways to make money or get out of trouble he was very smart.
You know if i was like a... i dont know, an Italian guy with an italian culture and some day a Monk from Nepal came telling me I have to change my culture to a Nepali one i would be so confused
technically he was a chinese guy with chinese culture, since it looked like an earth kingdom guy. so a few degrees closer and he is at least familiar with nepalese monk culture, he's definitely heard of them, probably thinks they're neat. but his farm was probably a generational thing too, so he'd be forced to abandoned one inheritance for this new one.
It’s more like a guy coming to you house and saying « you have the perfect body to master the gaulish sword. Now abandon everything and come with me we gonna rebuild alesia » Just because people have the potential for a skill doesn’t mean their identity will suddenly change
It's not freedom the way Western culture thinks where you can do whatever you want, but freedom from the burdens of society, emotions, family obligations and such. It was the rejection of the Confucian values of the Chinese empire which demands strict hierarchy and devotion to family, nation, and duty (like Zuko's mindset, no matter how horrible his dad was, he had to be devoted to him). The Buddhist teachings demand removing those ties, which leads to rules about what you can't do - don't have a family, don't have noble titles, don't have wealth (since wealth is status). Remove attachments so you are obligated to nothing, so nobody can use them to control you. Then, you can devote yourself to the spiritual world 100% and be free of the physical one.
As a person who did art class for a year and studied character design and color theory, Korra and ATLA are peak. everything about them makes sense and I love it from that since it leads into their character. this is always at the for front of mind when seeing such amazing characters like this. Love these 2 shows
I think honestly there needs to b a new generation of benders outside of the monk life style remember they only converted to monks because of their dark past
Can we talk about the fact the no one in the show talked about new ainbenders in Fire Nation and Water Tribes? Just Earth Kingdom and the Reunited Republic
There's a theory that the new airbenders were descendants of the small handful that managed to survive. The Earth Kingdom would've been the safest place for them.
These airbenders were descendants of air benders who fled and his in the Earth kingdom, as it was the safest place to hide. Almost 200 years later, they don't know they're descended from airbenders but their powers are reawakening.
Basically either bc they're too nostalgic about the original series and they just blame Korra for not being Aang. If saving the world is so easy I urge them all to go out and try it
I don’t like the show not because it isn’t A:TLA but the world building at the cost of erasing established rules and unnecessary add ons to the world that just conflict a lot of what we already learned.
It's a shame that Aang wasn't around to see this. It was his biggest dream to rebuild the Air Nation, but at the end of the day, It may have taken a whole lot longer to do so. Tenzin and his kids were air benders, but that was going to take generations to accomplish. Now there's a ton of Non Benders who are air benders and they finally rebuilt the entire thing.
The issue tenzin was not getting is at the end of the day they maybe air benders but its not THEIR CULTURE. They lived lives, made families and so on in thier own communities and cultures. They are airbenders in powers but not identity and thats fair as they never asked to get the abilities. He could of still taught without needing to uproot them. I would be the guy at the start. I am not leaving my family and my home and farm for a culture I never asked to be part of because i gained abilities I never asked for.
Tenzin talk about learning about their teaching them their culture but technically their culture never changed. Bending does not decide their culture. In the promise comic where where mixed family of earth and fire benders. One characters being a earth bender consider her self a loyal member of the fire nation like her fire nation father. Tenzin think kinda reductive. Now that I think about it what ever happened to Aang's fan club. They were preserving and practising air nomad culture and traditions.
Not excusing Tenzin. But i think he was just excited since you know, Air benders were nearly extinct. Which is why i think Bumi was a really an essential person here because Tenzin was mostly forcing their culture to them. While Bumi was the bridge.
No one's gonna leave their homes and families just because they gained a superpower. Nor they wpuld leave their culture and livehood for a civilization that layed in ruins for a century.
T. should have been a little more oblique and subtle. The man Korra talked down from the bridge was, once he got past the initial shock, was actually pretty glad. He knew that what was happening to him had an explanation, and he welcomed the opportunity to learn how to control it.
Honestly, you cant force people to join. Its not their fault they were chosen to be airbenders and its not their fault that Avatar Aang abandon his fellow monks and went missing for 100 years.
@@notinterested7911 If Aang died fighting against Sozin then the air nomads would have lost their reason to be attacked; the war after was a hundred years so a reborn Avatar in the Northern water tribe or Earth kingdom could have turned the tide before as much damage was done without the risk of comet enhanced firebenders.
@@jjay2771 The fire benders didn't know who the avatar was, they just planned on killing everyone, which is what they did no matter if aang had been there or not. And were not talking about the war, we're talking about if Airbender culture would have survived if aang stayed and the answer to that is no
He never abandoned his people 🤦♂️. You clearly didn't watch the show or you're just not able to comprehend the things you watch. Either way you're wrong
I’m actually super excited to meet descendants of airbenders who didn’t go to the temples, they must have developed multiple different unique styles of airbending
One thing I wonder about the new Air Nation is that if the new air benders that came along after the Harmonic Convergence can get tattos. I mean they are obviously part of the new air nation now (atleast the ones who decided to train under Tenzin) but they haven't really lived like Air Nomads. Are there some rules you have to follow. like being a vegetarian? Ultimately I would assume that whoever Tenzin and/or Jinora deems worthy will get them (if they want to have them) but it's never really made clear.
Say what you will about Korra but she was more understanding than Tenzin was when the little girl was concerned about her dad being taken away. It's funny how Tenzin wasn't as much as a goofball as his father and I can't say I entirely blame Tenzin for r being uptight here since there's an endangered culture being brought back to life- not exactly a small thing.
I would’ve used a little reverse psychology on the 22 year old. If you try to make it seem like you think they can’t hack it, they’ll go just to prove you wrong.
i like this episode, because no one should force you to learn about "your" culture. like he said, he is a airbender, but no airnomad or monk. your culture is not your duty.
@@Omnivoid22seems like you caved in and bought premium after getting tired of all the ads, huh? Can’t blame you, yt is just trying to get people to buy it. Making ads longer, multiple unskippable ads..
It is an interesting situation. Is Bending tied to culture? Does an air bender really need to become a monk? Sure the only teacher would be monks themselves, but can't one just learn on their own? It is pretty odd for your bending ability requiring to lock you into a certain way of living. Although we do know in order to achieve perfect flight, an Airbender needs to let go of all earth connection
The avatar would likely be an exception to the rule, but it still showed (with Aang and Roku) that they don't have to abandon *their* culture to learn the other elements.
Honestly I would've informed them that they can't force them to join or convince them because its a culture that isn't popular or appealing. Who would want to be a monk in a time like that when bending feels more like a sport or a conveyance for work. The culture isn't completely hopeless. They should've just taken a hands-off approach or just educated what it means to be an air nomad vs. just an airbender.
I wonder if a future series is gonna involve a group of air benders that became radical cultists because they're the "true" air benders while the culture sprung up from the acolytes is considered hersay by them
For some reason, airbending is deeply connected to spirituality, so any person who didn't joined Tenzin will eventually lose their powers or at least have them severely weakened to the point of useleness
Imagine if korra found person resembles the Avatar, a person for a reason who is like the Avatar and rules in four elements I am sure korra She will be very stubborn to make this person have a role as an avatar
@@tuananhdang7385 Yes, I know, but it's a funny idea if there was actually someone who could control the four elements like the Avatar I was imagining korra will do something Funny enough to make this person play the role of avatar, even though I know it's impossible for anyone He has the ability to control a different element in the Avatar world
So... if Aang was the last Air Bender, then exactly how is there more of them suddenly. I mean Aangs kid would make sense to be one, but otherwise, they should be mostly extinct. Makes no sense.
@pablomiranda8185 Not Interested enough to finish, too weird of story. Like.. I get where they were going with the idea. But the technical 2 avatars is a really du,b idea too. I like last air bender but felt they could've do e korra differently. (What I mean by that is if am correct at one point you found out korra has avatar power but the spirit is with someone else.)
@@robertbuckmaster3755 Being avatar means she is the current host for raava, if raava is not fused with her then she loses all bendings except the water bending.
I don't like this season but I love the idea of there being more air benders to replace those killed by Sozin and Zaheer is also the best villain in the whole series
@@ismalordyfonollera3649 It also ends in similar ways as ATLA Book 2. Earth Kingdom has fallen, Avatar almost died, and their future romantic partners took care of their recovery. In fact, TLOK Books 2, 3, and 4 made a 3-part story arc that is basically an ATLA story arc in REVERSE.
A little empathy would have definitely help, just saying. Like these people have just suddenly woken up one day with strange powers, id be hesitant too.

For being the element of freedom, air nomads had a very restrictive behavior.

Being an irbender is about moving through air. Air restricts no one and nothing, so it is the element of freedom.
It's not freedom the way Western culture thinks where you can do whatever you want, but freedom from the burdens of society, emotions, family obligations and such.

It's funny how Tenzin wasn't as much as a goofball as his father and I can't say I entirely blame Tenzin for r being uptight here since there's an endangered culture being brought back to life- not exactly a small thing.
7:27 Beautiful korrasami moment.
no
@@mackncheese1683 Yes.
@@ExtremeMadnessX People can't laugh together without being in love?
@@Maspets I didn't say that they have romantic feelings at the time. But they definitely enjoyed being together.
I would’ve used a little reverse psychology on the 22 year old. If you try to make it seem like you think they can’t hack it, they’ll go just to prove you wrong.
He did eventually join them. We saw him in Republic City.
Love Jon Heder as the indifferent slacker. Even slouches like Napoleon 😂
THINK FARMER, THINK!
You really get to see Aang in Tenzin this episode. It was so heartwarming to see him being so goofy and naïve.
3:40 hey it’s everyone watching these videos including me
They should've gone around the world together to find air benders
Since they’re all technology infused, I kinda wish they’d just made flyers….
Tenzhin is a lot things - a salesman is not one of them. 😅😅
Korra should go around the world to master the elements
Tenzin sounds like OmniMan
HE IS
JK simmons is a legend
In hindsight, I keep expecting him to yell, "Think, Bumi"!
I think money speaks. A salary and future proof jobs for their children would have been a better motivator
i like this episode, because no one should force you to learn about "your" culture. like he said, he is a airbender, but no airnomad or monk. your culture is not your duty.
I'm just saying that if Korra showed up at my door, demanding that I come with her to some far off temple, I wouldn't be saying no
7:18 100% deserved Mako
"Razzle Dazzle!!!" Wait, does that mean Lance stole Bolin's catchphrase?
Bolin being the smartest for once... that's nice
Ryu is some sort of hermit too.
What's with all these videos,always more ads after like 10 seconds it's so annoying
luckily my country doesn’t have ads lol am so lucky i know it wont be forever so amma enjoy it while i can
adss? what are those. Oh yeah thats right. i got premium. dont know what an ad is
@@sarsvfxwhere are you from?
@@Omnivoid22seems like you caved in and bought premium after getting tired of all the ads, huh? Can’t blame you, yt is just trying to get people to buy it. Making ads longer, multiple unskippable ads..
Yea youtube ads are forbidden in my country so we never see ads in YT
It is an interesting situation. Is Bending tied to culture? Does an air bender really need to become a monk? Sure the only teacher would be monks themselves, but can't one just learn on their own? It is pretty odd for your bending ability requiring to lock you into a certain way of living.
Although we do know in order to achieve perfect flight, an Airbender needs to let go of all earth connection
The avatar would likely be an exception to the rule, but it still showed (with Aang and Roku) that they don't have to abandon *their* culture to learn the other elements.
The whole point of being an airbender isn’t to attain weightlessness. That was just Zaheer’s thing.
@@Damodred_Heiress
But isn't Buddhism about seeking enlightenment by detaching ones self from the world?
3:40 the general definition of a Gen Z
so the earth kingdom is gonna have a population of airbenders that are culturally linked to the earth kingdom?
At least Tensin's approach was tame compared to Korra who approach was that of a bully
oh tenzin, you should take notes from the jedi- on second thought maybe not
Honestly I would've informed them that they can't force them to join or convince them because its a culture that isn't popular or appealing.
Who would want to be a monk in a time like that when bending feels more like a sport or a conveyance for work.
The culture isn't completely hopeless. They should've just taken a hands-off approach or just educated what it means to be an air nomad vs. just an airbender.
I wonder if a future series is gonna involve a group of air benders that became radical cultists because they're the "true" air benders while the culture sprung up from the acolytes is considered hersay by them
I would’ve been adamant 2 join the moment Tenzin took off his shirt. I’m a simple man.
6 14-End. Varrick thaught Bolin well. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
it would be more realistic if hungry children tried to join them at the end
Napoleon Dynamite in LOK ! 😅
This 2:51 is really a Klaus Schwab statement 🤣
Did anybody else notice that thumbnail 🤨
Tenzin looking hot
It’s y I clicked on it 🏳️🌈
it was made to lure me in
Very funny how my friend's name is also tenzin.
I like my own comments
i love them so bad, the invitation a bit harsh at first lol
Someone took notes from professor xavier
Their mistake was letting Tenzin do the talking !
ryu's voiced by jon heder, aka napoleon dynamite
Tbh they kinda need some more flexibility when it came to air nation culture
If I got air bending I’d be so lazy with it
Is it me or does their first airbending recruit sounds along like kid Aang?
Who Kai?
oh boy you are very calm in this world omni man...
what is that thumbnail
the kid at the end had the save voice actor as aang?
That would be impossible. During legend of Korra airing back in 2012-2014 Aang’s voice actor would of been in mid teens
They do sound pretty similar don't they?😂
The thumbnail though💀
is effective on me 🥰
this is like... usa military lol
Bro forgot the fire nation who was literally waging war on 3 kingdoms
No, not really.
Ehhh... How? The airbenders don't have an army
For some reason, airbending is deeply connected to spirituality, so any person who didn't joined Tenzin will eventually lose their powers or at least have them severely weakened to the point of useleness
I feel like harmonic convergence airbending will differ slightly from natural airbending
Or MAYBE that's the only way they tried
That thumbnail is unhunged
Imagine if korra found person resembles the Avatar, a person for a reason who is like the Avatar and rules in four elements I am sure korra She will be very stubborn to make this person have a role as an avatar
I dont think anyone else for avatar or dark avatar that can bend 4 elements
@@tuananhdang7385 Yes, I know, but it's a funny idea if there was actually someone who could control the four elements like the Avatar I was imagining korra will do something Funny enough to make this person play the role of avatar, even though I know it's impossible for anyone He has the ability to control a different element in the Avatar world
@@alli2686it won't happen though
Yes, I know, impossible. I know that in Avatar, there is no person who can control the four natural elements other than the Avatar @@tartatovsky
@@tuananhdang7385 Dark avatar can learn 4 elements my guy. Unalaq didnt have time to learn
I am a hardcore capitalist. And I love chicken. So, if were one of those, I too would have rejected 😅. Ain't no way I am becoming a monk.
I’m a hardcore communist & I love muscly men. Our priorities r different. I wanna save the world. U wanna save degeneracy.
Was that John Heeder voicing the deadbeat son?
I mean, if a hot Avatar showed up on my doorstep and wanted to take me home, I'd be packing my bags then and there.
Tenzin recruits another baby factory.
The Little girl and the young boy is also an Airbender
Ryu is just like me fr
Really? Official page makes thumbnails like this for this video?
"no you dont"
So... if Aang was the last Air Bender, then exactly how is there more of them suddenly. I mean Aangs kid would make sense to be one, but otherwise, they should be mostly extinct. Makes no sense.
Watch the show
Search it up. The wiki’s free, honey.
@pablomiranda8185 Not Interested enough to finish, too weird of story. Like.. I get where they were going with the idea. But the technical 2 avatars is a really du,b idea too. I like last air bender but felt they could've do e korra differently. (What I mean by that is if am correct at one point you found out korra has avatar power but the spirit is with someone else.)
@@robertbuckmaster3755 Being avatar means she is the current host for raava, if raava is not fused with her then she loses all bendings except the water bending.
@@robertbuckmaster3755wdym? Korra is the only Avatar in her show, there's no other person alive that's part of the cycle
I don't like this season but I love the idea of there being more air benders to replace those killed by Sozin and Zaheer is also the best villain in the whole series
Imagine not liking Book 3...
@@ExtremeMadnessXright? This was the best season for LoK for me
@@ismalordyfonollera3649 It also ends in similar ways as ATLA Book 2. Earth Kingdom has fallen, Avatar almost died, and their future romantic partners took care of their recovery.
In fact, TLOK Books 2, 3, and 4 made a 3-part story arc that is basically an ATLA story arc in REVERSE.
Why did they make Ryu look like Kojima but with the personality of Napolean Dynamite.
It's actually modeled by someone who worked on the show.
A little empathy would have definitely help, just saying. Like these people have just suddenly woken up one day with strange powers, id be hesitant too.
Like the way Korra talked that guy off the bridge.
