Even when she does something GOOD for a change, such as finding and saving the prince, you still antagonize her... And the locator ability is not a dues ex machina, as it was previously introduced in AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER, as an ability the Avatar (and possibly other spiritual/connected people) can use, and with Korra having learned how to from Toph, she naturally realized it could be used to find Wu.

I don't want to ship Korrasami, but good gosh are they foisting it on me.

Before I was just ignoring subtext, but this is pretty... clear cut.

This might be the reason why Korra is no longer aired. Korrasami, the grand finale.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. LoK is either pandering to the Korrasami shippers, or giving the Korrasmi supporters a friendly nod, depending on your point of view.

That judging is terrible... do they know how panel judges that hold up scorecards work?

Also, those nines looks like gs. Therefore, it's gg so we can stop with the random fanart, yeah? If you're going to include it, at least put in some commentary.
That it Could be What it Is, Is What it Is

Stop making shit up, though. Links, or it's a God-damn lie and you know it.

While that is correct, I see the thread is unread and think: "Hmm, someone's posted something interesting". And then, increasingly inevitably, it turns out to be nothing more than a link...

I'm not complaining about the random fanart. I'm complaining about its being nothing more than a link. In the same way that some dude on the street is just some random.

I don't give a damn what you're complaining about at all, Forsher.

Honestly there isn't much more to discuss. Maybe Korra fanart could be spun off into it's own thread, but some people do look at the fanart.

You can talk about the fanart. The concept isn't difficult to grasp. I mean, "OMG this fanart is totes amazeballs, look at the way Korrasami is made to be sooooo beautiful, literally dying rite now!1!" is really annoying to read but it's much better than just links.

Emergency Awesome new video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5l8aW4eWEE

Claims there is going to be a 4 part finale, like in ATLA. I also heard in another video that the last episode will be titled "(Insert Title Here) Part 4, Avatar Korra", like how the last episode of ATLA was titled "Sozin's Comet Part 4, Avatar Aang".

How would it happen though? I read somewhere else that Raava wasn't really destroyed and there's a backup (as it were) somewhere out there that can be recovered. I mean, maybe, but I think it makes more sense from a practical viewpoint and a thematic one to not have it happen. The words "arse pull" spring to mind.

Apparently the lion turtle appeared in numerous motifs throughout (at least) the last book. Korra's airbending though...

If we have a 4 part finale, doesn't that mean there's only like 4 regular episodes left now? Or does the 4 part finale count as 1 episode, so the season will actually have more episodes then usual? (really hoping for this, because the pacing of this season seems like they're gonna run out of episodes to conclude it properly)
