Legend of Korra ;; The Aftermath

I always knew there had to be something wrong with Asami. And even if I wasn't right about her, at least I was right about her father, heheh. I loved that she proved herself by turning on her father and displaying her fighting skills, that was totally amazing and made her worthy of dating Mako (:

I almost felt bad for him for losing his ability to bend. I mean, that's go to be tough. No matter how obnoxious and rude he was, bending was a part of who he was, and to suddenly lose that, that's go to be horrible. I thought it was sweet of Korra to sit down and talk to him. And I really liked when he was all, "You have to get him for me." Because it kind of gives Korra a reason to keep going. She can always remember him and be reminded of why she has to keep going and beat Aman. 

He was such a dang convincing old man. So sweet and cooperative and generous. Made everyone think they was no way he could be related to the Equalists. No way at all. Except, of course, for the fact that a fire bender killed his wife. Didn't see that one coming, now did you?

He looked seriously deranged when he was inside the little machine thing. I can't believe he's been funding Aman all this time. Funding him, and creating his weapons. Sato's the reason the Equalists got those glove things. And these new weapons are going to be really difficult to beat. Inside, he was all, "let's make things more equal." But those machines make things quite unequal, if you ask me. I mean, you get to be completely shielded, and you're bigger, and you get to shoot electricity? That doesn't seem at all equal to me...

I love the fact that despite everything going on, it was Mako who picked up Korra, not Bolin. And the fact that Mako would even think to go to Korra before Tenzin or Lin, it just shows that he does still have feelings for her. I know, I know, he's still with Asami, but it's still possible. He could easily leave her for Korra, I know it can happen, haha.

I seriously didn't believe it for a second. I knew she was going to fight him. She might come off as being the rich brat, but this episode definitely served to prove her as being fully capable of taking care of herself. First with the race-car, and then with turning on her father. And what a beautiful betrayal, too. She had those fight movies down, and she took both guys out so easily. She might actually end up being a great character, even if she isn't Zuko's granddaughter, like I wanted her to be.

I love Lin Bei Fong to no end. And I love that she's going to leave the police force and do thing thing 'outside the law'. She is far too cool! I kinda wish we had Toph's granddaughter, though, to be closer in age to Korra and the others. That'd have been really cool, to have a Toph in their group. Though, Lin is still pretty epic, so it's all cool (:

I loved how Korra walked in and they were just sitting there swimming xD And when Asami is all like, yeah, I didn't actually ask my dad for permission... I bet he was blowing steam when he found out Mako was going to be living in the house with them, considering a firebender is the one that killed his wife. He kept his cool pretty well, with Mako and Bolin hanging around his daughter all them and having to sponsor the pro-bending thing and all. Guy did a great job keeping his secret. Not so much any more, though, since he went crazy trying to get back at Lin and Tenzin and Korra when they came down there... Heheh

Legend of Korra ;; And the Winner Is...

They could have had this whole pro-bending thing go on for a while longer and no one would have minded since the competition is so much fun... I have no idea why they made only the sixth episode be the championship... And then the Fire Ferrets don't even win xD

The whole Lin and Tenzin thing was so dang cute! I knew there had to be some reason as to why she was so against the Avatar right off the bat. And why she was always so harsh and rude with Tenzin. But I just can't imagine her...liking someone. Haha, I guess she's just too much like Toph for me to be able to think of her as a...well, girl, I guess. I loved the flashbacks! Those were totally amazing, heheh. And I thought it was cute when Tenzin and Lin were standing together and talking during the championship. If the pair of them had gotten together, I think that woulda been awesome. I mean, Aang and Toph's kids? Those two's kids would have to be the most epic people in the world, haha

When Lin came in to take Korra's side in dealing with Aman and the championship, I feel as though Tarlok was wayyy too quick to change his mind and position. I mean, it was like she walked in and he was all, YESH. I bet you he's working with Aman. That's why his task force was such a failure. And that's why he and Tenzin are always at odds with each other. Just you watch, he'll be with Aman one of these days ;D

That save had to be one of the most epic parts in the entire episode! I mean, Mako and Bolin basically can''t win a single thing without her. The save in the previous episode when she took down all three members of the other team completely on her own? That was simply ...Avatar-worthy. And this was totally awesome. I don't even know how the Fire Ferrets were functioning at ALL before she joined the team xD

This guy was such a loser. I mean, only people who don't believe in themselves to be better than the other team pay the refs to rig the game. And that was the worst kind of rigging I've ever seen! You'd think someone would throw the ref over after the first few things he didn't call and start calling them themselves. This team was playing dang dirty!

Which is why they completely deserved to get their powers taken away by this mask wearing loser. Aman is all like, hey, let's just crash the party, knock out amazing people like Tenzin and Lin (and OF COURSE, they'll wake up right as I'm flying through the roof) and then I'll take away the powers of the champions. So I guess it's actually a good thing the Wolfbats played so dirty. Otherwise that woulda been the Fire Ferrets getting their powers sucked right out of them.

When Lin and Korra start working together at then end, that was totally epic. They made a seriously amazing team! I loved when Lin had to choose between going after Aman and saving Korra. I mean, we all knew what she would have to choose, but it was just nice to see that she actually would choose saving Korra over her job. I thought that was totally awesome. Lin is a really cool character, and she's just soo much like her mother that I can't help loving her for being all hard and rough and stuff. That's what she was brought up with, it's no wonder it rubbed off on her a bit. Haha, okay, more than just a bit xP

Why is Mako so dang beautimus? And why in this world is he still with Asami? I thought she was going to be so awesome when she first came in on her little motorcycle. I called her as being an Azula or Mai-like//related character. But no, she's just this random rich girl that tried to have her 'daddy' buy the championship for them... I'd watch out, Mako, I bet she's with Tarlok and Aman xD

Legend of Korra ;; The Voice in the Night

I'm really warming up to this show. I mean, it'll never hold as much esteem in my heart as Avatar the Last Airbender did, but it's definitely a close second. It'd be awesome if we could get some grandchildren of the characters in the original show that are Korra's age that could join her group, you know? I think that'd be dang awesome... Anyways, on to this episode :]

I thought Tenzin's showdown with Tarrlok was pretty awesome, haha. Even if he did end up losing, he knew how to fight his cases. Those other three council members were dumb to side against the son of the former Avatar. Aang was awesome, and his son is worthy of as much, I' sure.

Poor Korra. Having nightmares of someone as creepy scary as Aman has got to be tough. Poor girlie. Though, I feel as Aang never once had nightmares about anything. Not even anyone in the Fire Nation. He was one hard rock. And always ready for a challenge. 

I seriously loved the scene when Korra denied Tarrlok. I was clapping for Tenzin! I was all, Tenzin ;; ONE. Tarllok ;; ZERO. Haha, even if Korra didn't even do it for Tenzin, I still felt as though he was the one winning a battle against Tarrlok, not Tarrlok losing one with Korra. Yeah, it's always all about the adults, no isn't it?

I felt like Korra gave in to Tarrlok too easily under the scrutiny of the reporters. And then she was way too quick to challenge Aman to a showdown. I mean, what exactly was she planning? That she would be able to take him down just like that even when no one else had been able to stop him from what he was doing? Sometimes she's just way too reckless. And then I try to think about Aang and how he always rushed into things without thinking them through. But I feel as though Aang was always better about things than Korra is. Aang journeyed with the guilt of failing the entire Air Nation. Korra was raised in a spoiled and luxurious life with everyone doing exactly what she wanted. She thinks she's better than she really is.

And she got taken way too easily. I mean, she didn't even REMOTELY put up a fight! She just kind of got taken and then stared at him. Had he not had his own plans, he would have taken the AVATAR's power right then and there. Come on, Korra, you're fouling up the memory of Avatar Aang with your incompetence! 

When Mako first ran into Asami, I was SO certain she was Zuko or Azula's daughter or granddaughter. SO SURE. And then she went and told him how she was the loser bratty rich kid daughter of the inventor of cars. I mean, really? How much lamer can you get? And now she's funding the Ferrets. Just watch, she is SO going to end up being evil or have some kind of ulterior motive. I bet she's working for Aman or something along those lines. There's no way Mako could have stumbled upon an honest and generous rich kid. Besides, he has to get with Korra!

I loved when she finally admitted her fears of Aman! It just made her so much stronger. I mean, now she isn't just the full-of-herself Avatar she started out as. Now she's the girl who admitted she was scared. The girl who knows now she'll finally be able to overcome her fear. The girl who Aman spared because he has bigger plans. Can't wait to see what exactly those plans are!

Legend of Korra

I was really worried about this show not bringing honor to Avatar, because I thought going too far like this would totally ruin it, you know? But so far this has actually been a pretty good show. I mean, I was sad to see everyone but Katara had already died (come on, I was so not the only one wanting to see the old team again, was I?). Haha, Katara as an elder was kinda strange to see. And even her and Aang's (I was so happy for them!) youngest kid was so old!!

Her new friends are pretty neat, too. Bolin's just a bit of a hot-head and a loser at times. I couldn't believe what he did in the previous week's episode with getting caught just to get some money, haha. But he's sweet and honest, and that makes him pretty dang awesome. Mako's totally awesome. I would love to see Korra and him get together. I just hope they don't take as long as Katara and Aang did, heheh. 

She really reminds me of Katara because she's from the water Tribe and her hair has that kind of thing in it... I don't know, haha. I don't get how they're planning on pulling out an entire show based on her only having to learn one element since she already has water, Earth, and Fire down. *shrugs* I guess we'll just have to watch and see.

I haven't seen today's episode yet, so I'll post something after seeing that (:
