    Yeah, Korra was pretty harsh with her father this episode, though having yet another bad revelation on top of the previous bad one was probably not going to help her mood.
    Also, just gonna say that the plot with Tenzin and his family was definitely one of my favorite things of this season.

    • @lalalalisa41

      I think the difference is that she already knew about the involvement of the White Lotus in isolating her away like that, but she didn't know her father or Tenzin were also the ones behind that decision as well. Hence why she gets so mad at them now since it felt like a lie as well as keeping important things from her.

    While the first season dealt with equality this season, as much as it is at the lower rankings of viewers and fans, deals with ,so to speak, “Church and State”, religion/belief system and secularism.
    Unalaq is by all accounts a theocratic leader. He truly has a strong belief in the role of spirits and their place in humanity’s world. Indeed his goal is akin to a holy war. By the end we’ll have explored extremism of beliefs and whether people can preferably only be one or the other (religious/spiritual or secular), or accept a world with secular and religious/spiritual aspects in the livelihoods of people and societies.

      Now if only it was better executed. Because I kind of agree, the whole "Dark Avatar" thing later on is stupid, as is how parts of the spirit world handled, but the main conflict, of Unalaq beliefs, and provable spiritual powers, and how he views the spirits, could have all been great.

      Jordanious77 The Avatar world is animistic. Respect and reverence to the spirits and nature are ideal but not a need for all humans. The material world is an altogether different realm for those who live in it. They don’t have religions or faiths, what they have is spirituality and philosophy. The fact remains that one can either pursue spiritual or secular goals in the Avatar world. Them knowing of the spirits doesn’t mean they seek to connect with them. This isn’t about gods, but about beliefs and spiritual needs, which our real world just happen to predominantly use institutions of religions and deities to fill.

      He's in denial? The spirits in the show actually exist, of course he is able to strongly believe in them. Irl "spirits" are completely make believe. Unalaq in his character is a scientific, proof based person who would never normally be religious.

      +I Th.
      The way Royalty works, is that *any* living relative is eligible to inherit the throne -- and the one closest to the current ruler is the one to actually ascend to said throne -- unless the ruling dynasty is removed through force. So Yue's death didn't necessarily exactly leave the Northern Water Tribe without heirs to the throne; they just wouldn't be from Anook's line. Only if Anook had no living relatives whatsoever at time of his death; or if someone took the Chieftain-ship by force, would Korra not be related to Yue at all.
      And I find that to be considerably less likely than the opposite.

      I'd be curious as to whether or not Yue's father could have had another child afterward. And even if not, would the new chief be chosen based on being another family member of his, or someone entirely unrelated. Korra could still possibly be a distant relative if nothing else.

      @@vindifference that'd be posible if he did have a child again after Yue, since Korra's grandfather In the flashbacks looked younger than 60 something [which the GAang would of been at that point] yet he still looked older than Tenzin and his siblings so he could of been born 1-5 years after the war ended. Had two sons of his own and Korra being born after that.
      If that is the case than Yue did not only become the moon spirit and personally knew Avatar Aang but is also a blood ancestor of the new Avatar long after her death. That's a pretty good track record for a person who only appeared for 5 episodes in the Series not counting the moon

    Yeah, Korra's being a little too hard on her father, after just hearing the truth about his past. Obviously, there will be some payoff for her bad attitude, but it's still really shitty on her part. Also, I kinda wish that they didn't make Unalaq so transparently evil, because from an outsider's perspective, it makes the characters seem really dumb for not seeing through his BS.
    Also, there was a reason for that whole scene with Kya and Bumi not being known as Aang's children. It wasn't just for comedy, it sets up for the deeper look into their family dynamic which will be explored in this season. Speaking of which, Jinora sure was interested in that statue, huh? Trust me, you're going to love what this leads up to!

    • @SemiJuggaloNumber2
      @SemiJuggaloNumber2 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I. Th. True, both Tonraq AND Tenzin were responsible for tasking the White Lotus with keeping Korra in confinement, and that's definitely a good reason for her to be angry. However, her overall negative behavior is a result of her inflated ego. She feels entitled because she stopped Amon and she now has so much power, which shows because she was already blowing off her airbending training. Hell, she believes that simply being able to airbend is enough, going as far as to accuse Tenzin of holding her back. Even without learning the truth about her father's past and his involvement with her life of isolation, she was already lashing out at people who weren't telling her what she wanted to hear. As a huge fan of the series, I know that this is a necessary step in Korra's continued development, especially after she literally got everything handed to her in the Book 1 finale. Oh, and her apology to her father is one of my favorite moments in Book 2. Her relief that he wasn't involved with the rebels, followed by the realization that she acted really awful towards him, it was such a great scene.
      Also, I am aware that Unalaq technically hadn't done anything wrong until the northern forces arrived, but I sniffed him out as a villain immediately upon his debut. Honestly, it would have been better if he were written as a tragic character with good intentions for the Northern and Southern Water Tribes, but was ultimately led astray by Vaatu. However, he's not only almost as bad as Ozai, but he was totally down with releasing Vaatu and plunging the world into darkness.

    Unalaq can't really "invade" the South, he's already Chief of both the Water Tribes. All he's doing is transferring forces from one pole to the other. I mean it's obviously an aggressive move against the South's autonomy, but from a global perspective it's not really an invasion or anything.

    • @vetabeta9890

      Um, didn't the south declare independence, hence it being the "sister tribe" of the north not just "the other part"

    • @Wolf6119
      @Wolf6119 6 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      Nope. They were two independent nations during the 100 years war, and for a while after that, but by Legend of Korra times, Unalaq is title "The Great Chief of the Northern and Southern Water Tribes". The South if definitely largely self-ruling, but it's formally part of a united Water Tribe, under Northern rule.

    • @Wolf6119
      @Wolf6119 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      (Well technically by this point in the show, it's not a Civil War yet lol). I was just saying that Unalaq is entirely within his right to do what he's doing, even if he's being a bit of a dick about it. It's not quite the same as Ozai marching into the Earth Kingdom.

      Take Bumi, for instance, who is obviously a more powerful earthbender than Aang or Korra, Toph being more skilled than Aang in earth, and Azula obviously being a better Fire bender than Aang and Korra. The Avatars we've seen have tended to be outclassed by certain benders who were more skilled or powerful only outside of the Avatar State which is like having the power of multiple benders in one.
      Of course as was said the avatar's typical advantage outside the avatar state is being able to use multiple elements.

    Korra's father was really getting in his own way. Making demands when he should be making suggestions, saying "because I said so" instead of making a convincing argument and keeping important secrets for selfish reasons; It's the same missteps Tenzin was making.
    It kinda suck that the only person that knows how to listen and explain stuff to Korra is getting much more suspicious and shady.

    • @neilagangitlog

    So cool fact I just learned. I was just up in Alaska and went to the museum of the north. I learned that the northern lights and southern lights are connected. Meaning, that they don't just occur at the same time but they are actually mirror images of each other. The particles travel back and forth (north to south and back) along the Earth's magnetic field.

    If Tonraq hadn't been banished then there were chances of Korra been born as Princess of the North. That would make her quite the political power already.
    And with Unalaq around (not as chief, more like advisor to Tonraq) she would have learnt a lot more about spirits.
    And considering Unalaq was part of the Red Lotus then he might have betrayed the rest of them so he can keep Korra for himself.

    In Korra, the spirits just look like generic ghosts.

How the spirits react to what has been done to them and their home, is a great representation about nature fighting back the greed of humans. I love it that they show it like this, that they give Nature a face and show what happens when you attack and exploit the natural world too much like we humans tend to do.
