One thing I didn't like about A:TLA was barely anyone was killed. I hope they let characters kill in LOK, it got annoying with Katara and Aang (Even Zuko) getting so close but not doing it... :blush:

To be fair, it was a kid's show.

I like Korra. While I agree with Aang philosophically, his pacifism got boring sometimes.


He wasn't a pascifist.

Well I guess it's kind of like with the original ATLA where they had the longer opening for the first episode and it got shortened for the rest of the season.

Apparently lightning bending is somewhat common now, what with all those guys, including Mako, doing it at the power plant.

Yeah, but it was still much longer than the one they are using for Legend of Korra.

Now the question is whether Korra knows lightning bending as well.

Ohhh God that'd be so cool.

I don't know, maybe she'll have to learn it. Then again, she might be so comfortable with the elements (air excluded) to be able to lightning bend.

From what I'm seeing so far, lightning bending would probably just leave them opening to an attack.

Has Episode 3 been released yet?

I've checked a lot of Anime sites and the wait is annoying. I want to see more of this Revelation the trailer keeps going on about...

It's less than a minute from being over live.

You'll probably have to give it at least a few hours to be uploaded somewhere online.

I wonder if they'll ever have characters from outside republic city be important, like having Zuko's son, the current Fire Lord, come to Republic City and have him fight against the Equalists.
