I lost my enthusiasm for this show..and I kind of blame it on my various other current interests that Im fangirling over.

The best characters were Tenzin, Chief Beifong, Bolin and Amon...also the action was superb.

The whole Korra/Mako thing was so forced..and Asami was bland with a bland voice actor and waaay too Goodytwoshoes..the declaration of love was enough to make me fandom vomit. The character interaction was just bad.

I love the Amon twist though.

Also, oh Iroh..I wish we'd gotten to see more of you.

edit for more thoughts on Amon..though I like the twist I did have a minor complaint..

I can't wait for the second season....truthfully up until the last few episodes this series had been a huge let down and I'm a huge fan of this series....but holy crap did they pull through in the end. I just hope they get the rights for more seasons after the second....I was excited for Bhumi (SP) and I still want to see the third son of Aang...

I dunno, I thought his back story could've been so much more interesting.


Maybe I'm just expecting too much from a kids a show on Nickelodeon.

I think I remember that Katara mentioned her children as Tenzin, Bhumi, and Kaiya (the name of her mother)

So a sister to Tenzin and Bhumi.

Also, I'm going to look for confirmation but I think I remember reading somewhere that they did pick up this series for two more seasons. Kinda like they had 3 seasons for the original.

Holy crap the season finale was awesome! I'm officially looking forward to the next seasons. Now if only like oh I don't know Peter Jackson would pick up the rest of the books from the original series and make a movie worth while.

You're right, even better! A sister! I wonder what type of Bender Bhumi is...

I know that season 2 is 100% bought and paid for and is now in production for April 2013 (Most likely). I'm really hoping for season 3.

Well that's just a speculation that TV shows have been trending along these days, especially 12 episode seasons.

It made sense that Korra got her bending back due to her being the

Avatar. The Avatar is the only person who can energy bend (allowing

someone to take and give back bending). Energy bending is like "The

One magic" from Fairy tail, all the other bending came from it, it's

just that the Avatar is able to readily use it (maybe b/c he/she can

use all bending or every bender can use it but doesn't know it).

Amon was using blood bending to take away bending by probably

permanently blocking a benders chi, or maybe Amon blocked a part of

the brain that allowed bending of the nature the person knows and

since Kora didn't know how to air bend... it helped her out! I

thought Katara should have been able to blood bend people back to

normal or maybe wasn't told that blend bending took her bending.

Love the show!!!!!!!

Totally agree with you, I made a comment elsewhere discussing Amons blood bending and how he was able to take away bending. I'm guessing he's blocking a chakra point in the body or blocking their chi somehow through the blood bending. Several people were also commenting on Korra's air bending and why it wasn't taken from her, I'm guessing because she wasn't really proficient in air bending perhaps that protected her, after all how can he take something away from you that you don't know how to do in the first place.

The one complaint that I have is the how short the seasons are compared to the original series. I got spoiled by the various side missions and all the other stuff that would go on during the main "quest." Overall I'm liking it now. Oh and there was an interview with the creators in which they said each season will have its own villain, and the story will branch out and be a mix of Republic City and the rest of the world.

I was screaming "noooooooo don't take their bending away!! airbending is my favorite!" Then again, it wouldn't erase future airbenders since bending is suppose to be genetic xD

My theory on who Amon was was this...

Amon is actually Aang's third son who couldn't bend. Due to that, he

gained a hatred for benders and begged Aang to get him in contact

with the spirit world so the spirits can teach him how to Energy

bend. Aang tought him how to contact the spirits and Amon later

learned the secret behind being immune to bloodbending by having

the "Mind over matter" mentality. Once he broke ties with Aang and

his brothers, he started the Equalists.

I have to admit... I thought Tenzin's first son was "special" but when i saw him fight, i'm like "this boy is a prodigy!!!".
