What would you change to make Korra a good show?

What would you change to make Korra a good show?

The setting, the plot and the characters.

Either advance the setting technologically with the aesthetic sense of tech presented in the original or not do at all. Adding western-like designs and inventions clashed with the character design and world building.

Make Korra earn her powers. She can start with them all, but she needs to refine and perfect them instead of being inconsistent with her power level as the plot demanded it.

Finally, either make her lesbian/bi from the start or make her revelation to same sex an actual character arc.


These are just the changes to the basic setting and the main protagonist, I'll spare you the rest.

>Give Amon the full 4 seasons
>Make the Equalist uprising global
>Have Korra lose control of Republic City because of her own immaturity forcing her to recognize it and improve
>Amon is not a bloodbender
>Stick to the established lore of the Avatar and Avatar state
>Amon takes her bending
>She has to learn to spiritbend, which means connecting to the Spirit world
>She has to learn to fight and function without her bending
>Other characters have to behave competently to help Korra given she doesn't have her full Avatar powers
>Korra is not a lesbian
>Korra is not interested in Mako or Bolin
>Shitty romantic subplot waste no more screentime
>Air bending cannot make you fly without a fucking glider
>You cannot bloodbend during the fucking day
>Firebenders are not redirecting lightning as some random fucking job
>Metal bending is more common than in TLA but not fucking everywhere

this thread again

Korra's massive breasts.
Make them even bigger.

I would have changed a lot, there is so many to list, but they should have gone with their first instinct and made Asami a villain. They could have redeemed her later if they wanted, but she was so useless and a blank slate for 4 seasons. Maybe turn her into a good rival for Korra the way Zuko was for Aang for a few seasons.

I've got no problem with romance, but if you're gonna do it, it needs to be built up and only pay off at the end of the story

Once they knew they were gonna get more seasons they should have rewrote the end immediately

Her chest size is just fine, what she needs is skimpier clothing.

this

midriff all day every day

Not a single character in this shit show was memorable or interesting on any level. There is nothing the writers could have done to salvage this garbage.

Kick Bryke off the team, get back the ATLA crew to make a good show.

Started the show with Korra in a MMF relationship with Mako and Bolin, and have Korra more open and exploratory with her sexuality

I hatred how the elements reduced to memes. It felt like characters were pulling powers out of their ass.

>air can make you fly
>you just have to think hard enough

almost threw my remote at the screen

what are the boss battes at the end of s1-3, amon?

Fuck off you kike-enabler. This show was ruined partly because of the pointless ambiguous sexual relationships.

as far as the first season is concerned, not cheap out the non-bender oppression angle at the end. Make Amon maybe someone who gained powers dealing with evil spirits to lead into season 2. Don't make all the problems okay because the masked man was actually a bender, that doesn't solve the problems. And leave Korra's bending blocked at the end, make it seem she now has to commit to the airbending teachings that she's struggled with in order to stay an effective avatar as an avenue for character growth, you can reverse that shit later when you have a moment in season 2 that feels earned and not ghost Aang solving all the problems

...

...

erase the gay

start season 2 off with the Wan story and make Korra more likable. Explore Republic city more so that it has a likable atmosphere instead of some steampunk set piece.

less drama shit in season 1

erase Kuvira

more mako as he was in seasons 2 and 3. transform him into a badass

Rewrite the second half of season 2 and all of season 4.

Remove pro bending, remove all romance subplots.

And so he presents the solution where they would be very unambiguous. What's the issue? Does it trigger you?

added a beach episode

Korra is the worst part of her own show, so *shrug*

>*shrug*

The simplest and easiest change: give each season 20 episodes.

TLOK romance >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> TLAB romance

You all know this is true.

Working with whatever nation they're in to stop equalist who have weapons to surpass metal gear.

Actually, just remove all the romance, not about the new avatar, the new avatar doesn't show up for more than a cameo, just have a bending tournament anime (not but pro bending because that was shit)

You mean how Korra is an indecisive cunt?

>implying shippers didn't want Katara to be an indecisive cunt

>indecisive
Korra wanted Mako. Mako was the indecisive one.

>Mako was the indecisive one
"Korra, don't kiss me. That was a mistake on your part. Fuck off".

Mako did nothing wrong. Asami was the one that got pissed for no reason and broke up with him.

This all the way

>"Korra, don't kiss me. That was a mistake on your part. Fuck off".
Mako leaves Asami behind once Korra makes it back from Tarrlok's Summer Home complete with rape cage. He willingly goes to Korra and sticks with her even in season 3 when he no longer has a reason to be around on multiple levels.

Also if someone kisses you and you kiss back and deepen kiss rather than move away or push the other person back, then that falls in line with how it takes two to tango.

The way to improve the show is to remove the romance by removing the brothers because by getting rid of the components of shipping it allows for the city to be explored beyond the stadium, Korra to stick with Tenzin, and removes the waste of time that was participating in probending.

>You cannot bloodbend during the fucking day
hay you fucking idiot only 2 guys had the power and they are both dead get the fuck over it

Three guys. And seeing as how the father of the two guys says his whole family line was capable of moonless daylight bloodbending, then it is more than two guys overall.

I will give you that they are all dead now though.

>Mako leaves Asami behind once Korra makes it back from Tarrlok's Summer Home complete with rape cage
Wrong. Asami was just a jealous bitch and broke up with him because of "the way he was looking at Korra".

Keep the original studio. Maybe make the spirits/spirit world less World of Warcraft-y.

>"Have Korra be a whore"
Good idea user, just make the show a porno

just make it for a later time slot and add some sexy moments

>just have a bending tournament anime
I would watch this.
I would also buy the inevitable poorly crafted game.

I just realized something, Korra is just a ripoff of Wonder Woman.

But... it's already good. Great even.

>make season 1 less of a chick flick
>cut out the ending romance
>make bo-lin and mako more fleshed out and unique like sokka and katara were
>make korra less of a dumbass and NOT cut ties with the previous avatars
There, i fixed it.

Re-arrange the seasons.
S1 stays mostly the same, but it's implied Amon was part of the Red Lotus
S3 happens directly after and stays mostly the same. Annoying additional characters never appear
S4 happens just so that Korra can get some character development, but no forced lesbo ending

S2 happens but it's completely revamped. Her uncle was leading the Red Lotus all this time and still wants to usurped the Avatar via the spirits. Korra is now experienced, competent and wisened up.

yeah but i cared about those characters

How?

How the fug did you make that connection user?

One: Remove robots/mecha/powersuits.
All of it. Gone. Remove that shit. Remove the little bots, remove the gigga robot.

Two: Before I even air the series establish relationships.
X hates Y. Y loves Z. Z is friends with Z.
X will learn to like Y. The end. If a character has too many shifts in relationships over the spawn of the show then it's a problem. It's especially a problem if it shoves a fucking major change in the last 10 seconds of the series. (Yes, the lesbo vacation magic portal scene).

Three: Establish your story more strongly. Yes, all the characters introduced that were villains were absolutely perfect, in theory, for her counter to show a changing technological modern world. Different governments and ideology. Expansion. Equality. Conversation. Spirit connection vs. Human Interests.
It did not help that they tried to do ALL OF THAT.

Four: Read the script before we begin production. Have other people read the script. If people are saying "this character's shit" that's a bad sign.

Five; Make sure you don't introduce shit concepts. I.E. Korra destroying all of the previous avatars and cutting off ties, yet still keeping her super bending avatar state/powers.

Six; Make sure your team is not influenced by social media screamers.

Slap everyone involved in the pitch and make sure the show didn't get made. 100% improvement.

fucking this

I'd imagine, if we had the luxury of planning out the four seasons ahead of time, we could introduce and use the many factions the series hinted at. Season 2, say, has the spirits start joining up with Amon, who has actual Spirit powers. The final boss could be some incredibly powerful spirit accidentally let loose. Not the literal God of Destruction, but something fairly powerful with an interesting backstory. You could find a way to pull in the Red Lotus members and use them in another season.

Not make?
But if I was contractually obligated, I suppose first thing first, remove female lead.
They're nothing but trouble, and a headache, and they attract SJWs and waifufags.

This.
Also, the waterbender from the sport team from season 1 would have made a nice addition to the team, i would have liked to see more of him.

you wrote biceps wrong

yep this

explain

had Korra dressed up as a slave

This except with proper lesbian romance between Korra and Asami

>there will never be a BDSM heavy Avatar series

Make Korrasami a thing since the season one finale

No, make Korra and Asami good friends who are the butt of a bunch of ambigiously gay duo jokes, like Zuko and Sokka in Book 3, but then have them actually be gay the absolute madmen

I think I was pretty clear when I said
>Korra is not a lesbian
>No shitty romantic subplot

Korrasami is a shitty shoehorned in romance, and if the show had any value it lost it when that relationship came out of buttfuck nowhere because the writers wanted to score diversity points for their low ratings.

>Make more forced romance because... reasons

...

The problem with Korrasami isn't "forced romance", it's bad writing.

Everything in fiction is, by definition, "forced."

Korra is a lesbian tho

You're arguing semantics when you clearly understand what I meant, and what everyone means when they say forced.

>They literally make Korra lose her memory just to continue the romance plot because no realistic person would return to that unless they had legitimate brain damage

...

You having a fetish does not make the romance any more believable or less pointless to the story overall.

Make it unrelated to the Avatar universe, make a hentai, and just have Korra choking on all the cocks.

A staggering amount of her popularity is because she's massively attractive to loads of people, and since her personality is about as one-dimensional as the average hentai character, one may as well just embrace it and make it work.

Get rid of Mako, give all his important plot points to Bolin.

The problem is that it is bad writing and forced. Honestly any "fix" of LoK should include removing Korrasami.

Not in the show.

Make her more feminine.

Yeah, what happened to that guy?
He just disappeared.
I don't think he was even in another episode.

Bisexual*

It's not gay if he's your brother right?

I think the flight coming out of nowhere is an overreaction
I remember reading someone write about how it was the only thing that sky bison did that normal airbenders never did

the psychic bloodbending, on the other hand, was absolute shit that came out of nowhere

>start Korra/Asami relationship in season 1
>make the show MA rated

That's all, really.

I can get behind this.
> Korra shouldn't have tried to have such a large cast of main characters in book 1 when it was like half the length of ATLA book 1. ATLA had the right idea adding Toph in book 2 and letting Suki and Zuko join the Gaang in book 3.
>Either remove Suyin or make her an antagonist. Don't ruin Toph.
>Korra can be bisexual as long as its not forced.
>They should have traveled the world from the start. They don't have to be traveling the world all the time but the show needed a lot more exploration and adventure. Seeing Republic City so much gets tiring for two reasons: we want to see how the world has changed in 70 years and Republic City honestly isn't that great of a setting.
>No mechs. Or at least no mechs like what we got. Motherfucking platinum robot and CG galore.
>I don't like lavabending being a rare earthbender trait. It was better as an avatar skill.
>Don't introduce/develop characters just to drop them like a hot potato later. Ex: Eska/Desna, Kai.
>Korra bending 3 elements as a fucking toddler was bullshit. So were the Lion Turtles.
> Beach episode, more nudity and fanservice

now that, i can try and get behind.

Idk, I kinda thought lion turtles were based, but then again, I did pick turtwig/torterra as a starter

I agree with all of this, but I wish I didn't read it in Master Shake's voice.

THE FUCKING writers

Sounds pretty good. But if Lavabending is avatar only, Korra would need to learn this desu.

>Korra can be bisexual as long as its not forced.
I dunno, it feels like it will always be forced.

Wan story was cool but ruined all the established lore from ATLA. I don't want to ruin that nice animation but the story didn't fit. Maybe if they adjusted it. Is it the idea that the avatar was only a thing for 1000 years and the turtles gave the powers, not the other animals, kinda ruins a lot of the nice established stuff.

It was 10,000 years and the animals didn't give anyone powers, benders learned to hone their abilities by WATCHING them. This was something that was even in ATLA when Zuko and Aang did the dragon dance. The waterbenders learned to "push and pull" by studying the moon's effects on the tide.

Seriously, animals and a floating space rock being "magical" and giving people powers is a dumb interpretation. There wouldn't have only been five airbenders by Korra's time if that's how it worked.

What exactly is the problem people here have with Korrasami? I would assume it just needed a episode or two to solidify the upcoming relationship. But no one here wanted it to happen at all.

Nolan from the PPP said that Korrasami should've been Asami hating Korra for what happened to her dad but her dad was kind of a jerk though so I don't agree.

It would take alot more than an episode to design a believable build up. And they didn't do that either, they just put it in there for progressive points at the detriment of the show.

Leave Republic City more.
Give the supporting cast focus instead of making them bland caricatures of what they should have been and have someone write Korra to not be such an insufferable cunt.
Delete season 2: even if the Wan episodes were nice, they ruined the canon.
Do not have Korra destroy the Avatar cycle.
Remove giant mech and dumb hummingbird robots.
Redeem Zaheer in some small capacity, even if he just became an incidental mentor to Korra while imprisoned having hit complete enlightenment.
No suddenly lesbians.

Still not really explaining anything. Also why does /co talk more about ATLA than Korra anyway?

non meme list

>less tech
>reduce commonplace of upper tier benders
>remove ALL romance with mako/bolin/asami - redo it completely with one character new or old
>extend amons story slightly
>make korra more spiritual, or in the least interact with past lives more often + not shatter their bonds
>give flashback to wan one more episode to show more of his life

I don't hate book 2 as much people. I think Korra catches way too much hate because of its retard-tier ending and canonically odd things like the avatar cycle.

>Nice anamation

It wasn't even that great

They half assed it.

Even that filler episode from Avatar where they did something similar actually chanced the style completely instead of half assing it.

It's "romance" that is shoehorned into the show that adds nothing of value to the story. In fact it retracts from some of the only character development Korra went through.

People talk more about Atla since it's the better show with more to talk about.

This guy gets it.
