It was worse.

Too much clothing

Season 1 was okay
Season 2 was shit
Season 3 was only tolerable because of the villains
Season 4 was SJW pandering garbage

It was really good and I'm into very fit girls because of it.

Season 1 was good up until the end.
Season 2 is misunderstood. Full of plotholes but introduces good characters except for the villain who sucks.
Season 3 is the high point of the series and on par with the best seasons of ATLA.
Season 4 is good up until the end again.

/thread

Season 2 was leagues better than 3 or 4.

>Season 3 was only tolerable because of the villains

Zaheer spin-off fucking when?

>s4 was SJW pandering garbage
>literally just a couple moments and the last episode
>but no it was ALL SJW pandering

Oh look, a member of the contrarian squad.
What is this? Sup Forums? Sup Forums?

Sup Forums is just pissy that it had a yuri end because it threatened their fee fees that girl always gets with the guy they self insert with. Same reason they hate bubblegum and marceline and get salty as fuck finn isn't a pussyhound. It's the same as Sup Forums feeling threatened the second a protagonist doens't have a harem of placid elementary school girls that all unanimously want to fuck the bland, talentless protag.

>literally just a couple moments and the last episode
Yeah, literally 5 seconds at best through the whole season.
That user seems triggered.

come the fuck on lade
you could've at least disimulate a little about it

No, you are factually wrong.

it would have been better if they hadn't pussied out and had actually built an actual romantic relationship between Korra and Asami.

>Season 4 was SJW pandering garbage
five seconds unrelated to the entire rest of the show is a whole season of pandering garbage? Sup Forums get the fuck out.

>Sup Forums is just pissy that it had a yuri end because it threatened their fee fees that girl always gets with the guy they self insert with.
More like it wasn't at all well written but whatever.

But beyond the writing, I was upset because of two things:
1. I think it sends a message about the stereotype that girls can't be straight while being tough and strong. "You like baseball? What a lesbian." If Asami was a lesbian, or Mako gay with that twink prince, ok whatever. But it was Korra, the one character that defied the stereotype.

2. It gave a voice to the annoying fandom that just wanted the pairing because it's hot. Asami is such a wet cardboard of a character. And now everyone will demand their fanfic pairings to be canon. They gave them power. And I hate shippers more than anything in this world, related to media.

>>korra could probably be diagnosed as mentally retarded
She wasn't even that. She was clearly very sheltered.

Season 1 was okay, but with too much pro-bending and a shitty ending
Season 2 was shit, except for the first avatar stuff
Season 3 and 4 were good, but never great

. I think it sends a message about the stereotype that girls can't be straight while being tough and strong.

There are far more examples of straight tomboys in cartoons. This is probably the only one where it's not true. And she's not gay, she's bi. And Asami is also bi, and doesn't fit the stereotype at all, so that ruins your point.

>2. It gave a voice to the annoying fandom that just wanted the pairing because it's hot

Modern fandoms have fans of EVERY pair. You could make this argument about literally every pair.

This.

...

No, but Korrasami is a shit that ruined any interest I might have had in potential post-LoK stuff.

...

Are you me?

>There are far more examples of straight tomboys in cartoons.
How many protagonists though? Besides Korra is one of the few tomboys that isn't just part of a slice of life comedies, she's an action series protagonist that isn't stereotypically femenine.
>And she's not gay, she's bi.
Not a big difference. Doesn't matter when it comes to my point.
>And Asami is also bi, and doesn't fit the stereotype at all, so that ruins your point.
Which I mentioned before. I said Asami being bi or gay or whatever didn't matter, but Korra does.

>Season 4 was SJW pandering garbage
How?
Because you can't seriously imply that the lesbian thing that came out of nowhere and was only subtext (and free to ignore) is SJW pandering, unless I am missing something else here.
If 10 seconds lesbian is seriously the summarization of season 4 then the overall quality of that season must've been unremarkable shit.

Its better to let an effeminate gay prince rule than a right wing breeder even if she is a woman. Especially since she's white as well

Also
>kuvira
>white

The key part is "garbage", not "SJW pandering".

Imagine for a second being a person like this.
I'd kill myself.

Season 1 - Until that nonsense that was the ending, this season was more or less perfect. Everyone loved it, fanart was everyone, people even liked Mako for god's sake. If this had stayed a miniseries and the show had never continued, people nowadays would probably remember Korra quite fondly because of this first season.

Grade: A

Season 2 - Holy motherfucking shit was shit season bad, just, just fucking horrible. Terrible animation, too many plot points, non of which ever tied in with one another, introduced interesting new characters but never explored them because we had to deal with the personal drama of now irrelevant characters from season 1. Just, just, so bad!

Grade: D

Season 3 - It was average, not great, not bad, just average. It seems a lot better in hindsight because it came after that shit nonsense that was season 2, but it really wasn't that great. They travel the earth kingdom, melodrama happens, and then they fight the cool looking villains, the end. Yeah, that was pretty much the whole season. It just enjoyable non the less though, the fights were really cool, the stakes were high, and the writing was definitely back to ATLA/Season 1 levels, but again, the plot was just ehhhh.

Grade: B

Season 4 - Bland season that existed just to tie up overarching plot points and bring an end to the story. Villain was plain, war was was irrelevant, side characters were boring, also, Korra still utterly fucking useless. Shit season to end shit show, also Korrasami was top cringe and was a horrid repeat of Aang/Katara, which also came out of nowhere and to this day people hate...yeah, just, ehhh all around.

Grade: C

>woman
Kuvira looked more like a man than Wu

Kuvira was the most handsome woman I've seen.
I'd rather have her end up with Korra instead of the amazing wet blanket, the wallpaper lady, Asami.

Top tier taste.

>Asami is such a wet cardboard of a character
Agreed, I can't fucking believe that such a worthless character got to be part of the last shot of the Avatar franchise and is second billed in the wikipedia page.

Fuck, Bryan's waifufaggotry she should have been an equalist spy. It would give her some decent characterization and it would get rid of most of the love triangle bullshit that ruined the second half of S1.

The series would have vastly improved if Mako had killed Asami and stolen her bike back in episode 4.

Back to /u/

The Fire Ferrets had a fantastic dynamic before teenage hormones and Asami ruined everything.

Korra was so thirsty though.

This. People blame Mako and Korra for the love triangle, but there wouldn't even be one if Asami didn't exist. And the two of them actually had a pretty good dynamic. Unlike Asami, who was bland with everyone.

>but there wouldn't even be one if Asami didn't exist.
Bolin, dude.

>tfw Bolin got cucked hard by his own brother in S1

>Avatar world
>having white people

>someone actually uses the term correctly in 2017

>worst animation
now that's just pure delusion

Thing is that Bolin's part of the love triangle died completely after episode 5, and then he spent the following seasons fucking ice princesses, mover stars and rich airbenders.

The Makorrasami stuff was dragged on from episode 7 until the finale. And it just made Mako and Korra look like huge assholes for completely forgetting about Asami while they started fucking with their eyes.

While another problem was that Asami had no purpose in the team other than her daddy issues and her relationship with Mako. She reeks of last minute rewrites.

user come on. The pierrot episodes sucked donkey dick. Mir had to come back after they were done with the worst season of The Boondocks

>Aang/Katara, which also came out of nowhere

holy fuck people who hate the canon pairing are seriously delusional

if Katara had been male and found a magic girl hidden in a glacier everyone would have been expecting that from episode one. The only reason you don't see it is because the stereotypical personality roles were reversed, Katara was the brash iron-willed one and Aang was more flighty and manic pixie.

While I like Legend of Whorra(Though I wish it would use less Sup Forums memes if only to redpill the normies), I wish the guy would talk about Mike and Bryan's batshit insane literal Randian objectivism that's somehow fused with progressivism and the father issues.

Like no joke look at Bryan's blogs, you will find insane ramblings of a man who clearly was molested by his dad at a young age.

story/characterization was bad, but the girls were fine as hell. porn is great.

agreed. people on Sup Forums just bitch too much

also

damn nice pic

Korra was fucking horrid.

>And it just made Mako and Korra look like huge assholes for completely forgetting about Asami while they started fucking with their eyes.
I'm actually upset people say this except for the season finale.
While Mako was indecisive, the reason he ignored Asami for the most part was because Korra was in legit danger. She was kidnapped or some shit. Yet people were so hurt because he didn't pay attention to Asami.
Because the first thing you do when a friend is kidnapped is start to make out with your girlfriend.

lmao

never gets old

Sup Forums has made it a term valid for any form of "degeneracy" but some people still remember

Sup Forums is retarded and they should just kill themselves

No, since Bolin and Korra weren't in a relationship.

It didn't really help that every shot of Mako worrying about Korra or growing closer to her got followed by a shot of sad Asami in the background.

Is it not CURRENT YEAR user? Can "KEKED" not be used correctly? I can't believe that in CURRENT YEAR people still can't used KEKED correctly.

>It didn't really help that every shot of Mako worrying about Korra or growing closer to her got followed by a shot of sad Asami in the background.
That just shows that Asami was a selfish cunt who didn't care about Korra's well-being.
Yet people hate Mako.

Neither does this:^)

no, it really wasn't. Sure, It wasn't as good as TLA and got fucked over by Nick but it still turned out to be a decent show


most of the bitching seems to boil down to either
>REEEEE LESBIAN SJW !!!
or
> REEEEEE WASNT A:TLA 2.0

>got fucked over by Nick
In terms of what, ratings? The show has four seasons of top notch animation, and Nick didn't mandate any changes to the script. Who cares about TV ratings? Legend of Korra's production value is the one good thing going for it - they had JK Simmons as a main character and Zuckerberg doing the music FFS

Agreed. She's a tan girl.

But seriously, the way the show handled Kuvira is the reason I loathe season 4. She had such potential, and her arguments were steamrolling the "hero's" arguments, but they ignored the ideological conflict and just made her a mustache twirling Death Star Mech driver in the end. Beyond lazy - and all the more infuriating because of the potential.

>Yet people hate Mako.
I don't think anyone hates him anymore after S3 and S4.

Now everyone that isn't a yurifag or a tumblrite hates Asami for realizing how much of a worthless character she was all along.

Yeah Kuvira was making good points so they just hit the "Hitler" button.

I think you give too much credit to season 1 and not enough to season 3 - though I probably think this because I hate the ending of s1 so much, and enjoy the ending of s3. Endings matter a lot.

Nah nobody cares about antifa.

They didn't even had a reason to hate him in season 2. He was the victim of Korra's abuse.

My ex had me watch it at the time and I really only liked Bolin.
He was a pretty alright dude.

>Kuvira was making good points
Retards like you who don't understand political speech is why Trump won.

Asami reeks of a design they loved too much to trash when they decided not to make her evil.

Asamifags (who now completely disappeared from the planet) and Linfags hated him for hogging the Varrick subplot.

Confirmed for gay guy.
Only gay guys like Bolin. It's a fact.
That is literally what happened by their own comments.

Asami is best character. Korra doesn't deserve her.

>That is literally what happened by their own comments.

Damn, I knew about the change in story but I was just guessing on the reason for keeping her around after that.

Came to post this

t. people who love the taste of uncooked flour

You realize she was literally femme Stalin, right Bubba?

Aw man, but I don't wanna be gay.

just accept your gayness and keep on keepin on

when you fight against your innate homosexuality that's how you get shit like WBC and Sup Forums.

Agreed.

What points was Kuvira making that was "evil political speech"?

It's jarring how every early trailer and promotional material for Book 1 only shows Korra, Mako, Bolin (and Tenzin in some cases) when Asami is "supposed" to also be part of the main character team.

If it weren't for how long animation takes I'd say that Asami not being evil was a last minute addition.

>2017
>not wanting to be gay

>What points was Kuvira making that was "evil political speech"?
Lying about intentions making it sound appealing and just.
Not "evil political speech" just political speech

Thanks guys.

IS IT NOT CURRENT YEAR? I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT STRAIGHT PEOPLE ARE STILL OPPRESSED IN CURRENT YEAR.

What was she lying about?

Wasnt she setting up forced labor camps instead of deporting the non-earth citizens

Jesus Christ user, I don't remember. I watched the show in 2014. I just remember she was obviously lying.

>It wasn't as bad as people make it seem

No, it wasn't but that dosn't tell the whole story.

If where going to be honest about TLOK, we need to understand it was a rushed product. It' was only supposed to be a one season mini-series but the networks ordered another three seasons. This lead to them stretching the show too thin. Bryke ran out of ideas and just started making up dumb shit.

sfdebris, a really insightful Star Trek reviewer has a lot of good points about why the show fails(not unwatchable, but could have been better), and it mostly has to do with her immature character.
sfdebris.com/videos/animation/lok1.php

Still, good fap material though.

Season 4 was 3 years ago ? No...

Two and a half. Not 3 yet

>being in denial

fuck off

Wow, time sure does fly

Korra being immature wasn't a flaw of the show. Hell, it wasn't even a flaw in writing. Korra being immature is a good asset.

For that matter, it's funny that the rushed seasons are better than the non-rushed ones.
3 and 4 are pretty darn cool.

I thought I remember that they never actually went to one of the camps.

The confident assertions, they disprove my point entirely.

Korra sucks.

>The confident assertions, they disprove my point entirely.
I'm not gonna rewatch the show just to win a stupid internet discussion with a Sup Forumsack

It's legitimately annoying because a character who:

>served no purpose in the first book except to keep the Main Couple apart
>served no purpose in the second book except to briefly bring back the love triangle and had her own fucking plot handed off to and resolved by other characters
>only purpose in the third book was to be Korra's bland sidekick and again received no development or growth
>served no purpose in the fourth book except to watch her only living parent die because Bryke didn't have the balls to kill off a character we'd actually care and to be a love interest

is now the second most important in the fucking series purely due to her status as a love interest. She has NOTHING else going for her because the writers refused to give her any attention that didn't revolve around who she was dating or if they could make her cry. Who cares about characters like Tenzin, Lin or Jinora who underwent huge changes during the series? Asami's dating a woman!!! Give her a fucking medal!!!!

>tfw whenever I tell someone I like Korra they just fucking lump her and Asami together like they're one entity

Post more old ladies please
