ITT: we discuss why Korra is obviously a vastly superior avatar to Aang
Aang:
>ran away, got frozen for 100 years and let the whole world (almost) get invaded by the fire nation
>responsible for the extinction of his entire race
>runs away from fights constantly cause he's a fucking pussy e.g. when kyoshi islands getting burned down he flys away and leaves a bunch of 14 year old girls to defeat a battleship full of soldiers
>Omashu is invaded, "bumi i'm here to help you take the city back" "no Aang go away" "k den" even though the 2 of them could reclaim the city in 5 mins
>Can't master the avatar state cause "MUH FEELINGS"
>entirely reliant on the gAang and wouldve been captured after 5 episodes tops without his friends
>gets killed in the avatar state and nearly ends the cycle if it wasn't for magic spirit water
>lets the entire earth kingdom get taken over when Azula takes Ba Sing Se
>leaves the earth kingdom under the rule of a tyranical dictator while he has fucking dance parties and cleans lakes
>gets defeated on the day of black sun "let's just forget about all our friends and family who're probably being tortured in prison and fuck about in this temple"
>getting his ass royally kicked until chiropractor rock shows up and fixes him, even then he's too much of a fag to kill Ozai
>got the whiny ass girl who thinks she's his mom
Korra:
>Defeats the most powerful bloodbender in history who wouldn't have even existed if Aang didn't let Yakone go
>competent alone and doesnt need too much help
>beats literal Satan alone with no help
>brought the spirit and human worlds together
>restored the air nation that Aang fucking abandoned to die
>defeated 4 of the most powerful benders in the world who "together could take down the whole world" while full of poison
>took down a tyrannical dictator who had an almost unstoppable force of mass destruction
>created a new spirit portal which makes republic city the literal centre of the world
>got the hot girl
>ITT: I start shit with people in a very obvious trolling attempt
>>68142758
Yeah but I actually liked Aang.
>>68142769
not even trolling, i could come up with something better if i was trolling
Korra is over and ATLA will forever be remembered as "the good show".
Superior avatar, inferior character.
1. Female
2. Shoulder blades
3. Delicious brown
>>68142805
nostalgia clouds judgement
Nope.
Aang was actually better. He ended an entire world war that was going on for almost a hundred years. Didn't feel the need to punch everything that moved. Wasn't such a hot head and respected his elders. Did all this while being a good five years younger than Korra. Also, way, way more emotionally mature than Korra.
SHE HAD THE GUTS TO COME OUT OF THE CLOSET WHEREAS AANG AND ZUKO ONLY FUCKED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.
>>68142758
>guaranteed replies
>>68142832
Nothing to do with nostalgia. I only watched both shows for the first time in the last month or so.
After watching them back to back I can tell you, ATLA is far superior.
>beats literal Satan alone with no help
She wouldn't have beaten him without Jinora.
>defeated 4 of the most powerful benders in the world who "together could take down the whole world" while full of poison
With the help of her friends. Also, she almost died on the avatar state there too.
>>took down a tyrannical dictator who had an almost unstoppable force of mass destruction
Again, with the help of her friends.
>>68142758
Aang is straight and white
Korra is brown and gay
the first will always be superior to the second
Lesbians
>>68142758
Nah, Korra was a cunt that got help from bad writting, deus ex machina and all the men in her life.
... Korra is a perfect sjw now that i realize. Men do her job for her, gets help by crying like a bitch and still feel she is the hero of her story.
>>68142880
Aang got a brown girl
Korra got a hot fire nation white girl

>>68142832
Not really, I like Korra but there are definite structural flaws that point towards corporate meddling and an unfocused direction from the staff.
Both are good but one doesn't have a season that is nigh unwatchable.
If you want to talk about individual characters both have their strengths and I think that they were presented with situations that had different challenges but both came out pretty okay.but best earth king is reserved for LoK
Korra's exact strength is weird
Pretty much through the series she gets taken out by every mook. She's not great at bending despite knowing all (we never see her stop lava from destroying a town like Aang did one time or anything) and most episodes are spent telling us how useless she is. Then at the end of a book she'll turn fucking amazing at everything even without devil trigger and be able to take everything on.
Aang was always overpowering guys but also loved to mix up styles. Making him a pacifist as well made it so he'd have to be inventive, he was always fun to watch and used his powerful bending through out the series.
Basically Aang's fights and bending were more interesting
>>68142838
so true
>>68142879
valid point but saying she wouldnt have beaten him without jinora is a bit inaccurate, im sure if she couldnt get in she'd just fly w/ tenzin, mako, bolin and asami on oogi to the portal.
also saying she wouldnt have done it without jinora is like saying well aang would still be in the iceberg without katara and never even had to the chance to wn
>>68142911
>>fucking lion turtle
>>fucking magic spirit water
>>fucking chiropractor rock
Ancient Turttle that holds the secrets and powers of energy bending is better than Loli out of the blue.
Better than "Mako, save my ass. I'm a useless cunt"
Way better than: "I'm useless piece of shit that is traumatized because of baldy"
Aang almost died and he wasn't such a whiny shit.
>>68142863
I watched ATLA for the first time after watching LoK season 1 back when it aired. ATLA felt incredibly childish and cheap in direct comparison. It got slightly better in season 2 and 3, but overall LoK was just better, higher quality, more mature themes, better characters, better villains.
>>68142947
>better characters
>>68142879
Aang was the same he needed friends for damn near everything
If you like TLoK more than ATLA then I pity you, because you clearly missed something in ATLA.
>>68142958
>Aang was the same he needed friends for damn near everything
Nah, he defeated Ozai, Zuko and even an ancient spirit by himself.
Aang was more powerfull than Korra and would have fucked Kuvira's ass like a pro.
>>68142946
>Way better than: "I'm useless piece of shit that is traumatized because of baldy"
Not really, that was a pretty good plot element actually. It was a very refreshing, mature and dark twist to the typical way of how action heroes in children cartoons deal with the after-effects of a gruesome battle with a villain. That alone was better writing than anything ATLA had to offer.

Not really, m8. It just made Korra look weak.
I know you are trying, but you are failing miserably
>>68142880
>Aang

Korra:

>MUH PTSD CANT KILL KUVIRA BECUZ PTSD
Aang:

>alright lets kill the fire nation
Fuck off.
>>68142946
>wasn't such a whiny shit
You mean like the entire series didn't lead up to him needing to kill fucking Fire Hitler and then being able to bitch out because of multiple ass pulls?
>>68142974
Are you retarded? They did the working hard montage and she got better, that's about the same as when Anng figured out that his people were kill.
Because being a more powerful character makes her a better character?
Go back to DBZ
>>68142958
You kidding? Aang was over powered as fuck. For most of the books he carried everyone else in fights
>>68142758
Lesbians are superior to straight people. Therefore Korra > Aang.
>>68142923
>but best earth king is reserved for LoK
Do You think?
>>68142972
Haha, Aang lost to fucking Jet. He got slapped around by Azula's merry gang of little girls. He would have been flat out murdered by any opponent Korra had faced. The only times Aang ever won a fight was in avatar state which doesn't even count as his own victory, as he became just a vessel for all his past lifes to fight for him.
Brown master race
>>68142993
Korra:
>is an actual character
Aang:
>11yo demigod apparently
But muh hero!
>>68143009
He wasn't earth king, though that would have been fucking amazing.
>>68142974
Great idea! Don't leave it for the 3rd fucking season when she faced multiple enemies before that almost killed her though!
>>68142988
whiter than korra
>>68142946
>Aang almost died and he wasn't such a whiny shit.
thanks i really needed that laugh
>>68142983
Yeah and there is nothing wrong with making the MC look weak. I know some fools can't understand that and only want dragonball esque power level progression from their heroes, but LoK did the PTSD thing very well and as I said, it was a refreshing twist to the usual childish way of how this sort of stuff is being handled in ATLA and similar cartoons.
>>68143016
Korra lost to generic henchmen regularly
>The only times Aang ever won a fight was in avatar state
That's not true at all. He won fights every episode (Including Jet and Azula's crew) and made sure he never killed anyone at the same time.
>>68143028
Newsflash: the air nomads are asian
>>68142994

>>68143053
>>68143028

Sort of off topic but I dont want to start a new thread.
Will there be more Avatar comics you think? I know after LOK Nick will NEVER give Bryke another TV series but will the series continue in comics you think?
>>68143053
>east aryan

I thought fire nation was supposed to be white people.
>>68142758
WAS PRETENDING TO BE RETARDED PART OF YOUR PLAN?
>>68142998
never watched DBZ but if i'm honest korra's a far more interesting, relatable and all out better character than aang ever was AND she's more powerful to top it all off

Way to fuck up Toph. Not only in one of the last lines in the show but also giving her a promiscuous love life and retarded self exclusion in a swamp.
Bravo! TLOK best show! Will miss avatar so much after that
>>68143078
Just read some fanfic if you want some stories of korra and asami to fap to.
>>68143078
I know there's at least 1 more ATLA comic coming.
>>68143086
no but thanks for your concern you uneducated shit
>>68143078
Korra would struggle where to go. It forgot to end characters story but not like with Zuko's mummy issues, just Bolin has no end
They also really fucked the world up so much that they'd have to ignore a load of shit like how the fuck will the earth nation be divided into states
>>68143085
China
>>68143085
fire nation = japan w/ slight chinese influence
earth kingdom = china with random asian infuences
air nomads = Tibetan monks
water tribe = native american/inuit/eskimo
>>68143082
>"east aryan"
>"east aryan"

>>68143101
The Earth Kingdom was already divided into states, it's always been a confederate monarchy.
>>68143086
DIE WAFFEN, LEGT AN
>>68142947
That is the problem ATLA was made first meaning in the beginning it was SUPPOSED to cater to children and as the show gained a more mature audience was able to mature later on.
TLOK had the advantage of not having to gain a audience and it started out mature. TLOk spring boarded off of ATLA and it's success not the other way around
>>68143101
Earth Kingdom has always been a bunch of smaller fiefdoms/kingdoms that had to pay tribute to the Earth King, though.
>>68143120
I always thought earth nation was korea but china makes more sense
>>68142947
Yeah but you are the kind of retard who decides to watch the sequel to a show before watching the original, so your opinion is invalid.
>>68143099
theyve confirmed at least 2 more comic series, 1 starts next year
Airbenders are just all around better than other people
Best spiritualists? Airbenders. Aang was very spiritually in tune and took that shit seriously Jinora's spirituality is the only thing that saved Korra from her utter incompetence in season 2 and Jinora was the only one able to astrally project without the tree-of-giant-blue-people in the spirit world. Zaheer could also access the spirirt world like a boss. Unalaq needed Korra to open the spirit portals.
Best special benders? Airbenders. they don't get special bending by a genetic quirk, they have to let go of all worldly desiresthat being said, flight it the most retarded special bending)
Best mobility powers? Flight (gliders and such) is obviously king. Water benders are screwed away from water-ways, fire benders don't really have any mobility boosters sans comet, and Earthbenders can only launch themselves (or metal benders can go spider-man in the city)
Best Avatars? Yangchen and Aang were both better than their waterbender followers.
Best architecture? Air temples > pretty much everything
And let's take a look at who fucks up the world
Fire Kingdom's war
Water Bender's spirit shenanigans
Earth bender's dubstep tech rape of nature
And an airbender with a really unclear plan and endgoal (why were you keeping the airbenders captive, Zaheer? What did you want with them?)
On the other hand
Worst character was also an airbenderseriously, fuck Milo
>>68143101
>all the former Earth Kingdom States vy to try to gain power over other states
>massively instability
>warring States period
OH SHIT WE THREE KINGDOMS WITH ROBOTS?
>>68143136
Not really. ATLA was a show that didn't talk down to kids. The first book is just simpler because of it's structure and they were still figuring stuff out. Even then it could be very mature at times, people always forget this and say the book is kiddie shit. I think they are just repeating what others say here
LoK though might have been harmed by it's "mature" nature as it could never go the full way. It is still a kids show even though it wants you to think it is grown up. Though being allowed to be grown up may have made season 1 love triangle worse as well
>>68143053
>>68143068
Nah
Fire Nation = white
Air Nomads = white
Earth Kingdom = white
Water Tribe = tanned white
If they wanted Asian characters, they should have given them Asian features. This goes for all animation.
>>68143151
how can you say yangchen is better than anyone we know fuck all about her also
yangchen + Aang vs kuruk + korra
kuruk and korra would fuck their shit up
>>68143159
No, only Kuvira had the robot. She made love with the shadow gods and she popped the robot out of her vagina.
>>68143151
This is a big issue with korra. You are following up a persons who's rule book is never do any wrong. Korra never has her own philosophy to match this, she is just a bit normal and they don't use that very well
You'd have thought they'd educate the avatar in that. Like even if Korra found it boring they should have had her come out with intelligent thoughts on philosophy and have her friends be surprised
>>68143159
Nope, with Wu essentially giving over his kingdom to the Republic, I mean, 'free and fair' elections it'll be more carved up in accordance to British imperialism in China or something close to that.
>>68142979
>>68143151
Worst shota is made up for with best loli
If Korra was a male non of those retards would argue, but she is, so my waifu.
>>68143192
>how can you say yangchen is better than anyone we know fuck all about her also
Nigga were you even paying attention? She had an iron grip on the world and stopped all war as everyone was fucking afraid of her
This even carried over to the next avatar which is good as he was a lazy piece of shit water bender
>>68143192
>yangchen is better than anyone we know fuck all about her also
Yangchen was so good that no one dared start a war for a generation afterwards
"This isn't about you, this is about the world"

But everyone hates spirits and fears them. They fuck you up, steal your property and are just assholes. Not only that but the city is now pretty much destroyed and everyone is homeless or living in ruins
She made everyone's lives worse
>>68143078
ATLA's getting more comics, LoK is finished.

>>68143235
>>68143232
for all we know it couldve just been a peaceful period, we know nothing about her except that she beat old man iron (the rift) and thats not too impressive, also she's clearly shit, it took her a whole 2 days to beat old man iron when she was like 40 and even a 13 year old aang beat him in like 5 mins
>>68143312
>we know nothing about her except that she beat old man iron (the rift)
You don't know what you are talking about. That was not the first time we met her. Stop
>>68143078
Last I heard they definitely have plans to do more ATLA comics and Bryke are currently in talks with Dark Horse to start a series of Korra comics as well.
>>68143312
>being this obtuse
>>68143255
You make some valid points but
>taking people from their homes
No, they voluntarily came, you have superpowers why wouldn't you learn how to use them?
>she gave powers to one of them.
Wut? Zaheer got his flight from letting go of earthly desires after Boom Girl got popped by Su Yin
>she talked her down. Kuvira could have kept going.
No the only thing that gave her an immediate advantage was the superweapon, without it the war would have just dragged on. Maybe it would have ended with a Kuvira win but the collateral damage would be too high.
>>68143356
>Bryke are currently in talks with Dark Horse to start a series of Korra comics as well

tell me what else she did specifically then please, i'm honestly intrigued
>tfw there wasn't a single good fight in korra

This fight alone was more impressive than 90% of Korra, the only exception being some Red Lotus bending
>>68143332

It's chronologically the first thing she did as a fully trained Avatar and it's the only episode of her Avatarhood that's given any sort of outline.

>>68143398
>It's chronologically the first thing she did as a fully trained Avatar

You mean shoehorned pandering at the last second? Ok.
>>68143437
Because Aang is op

It was just all so bad and dull

>>68143489
80yo blind toph destroyed Korra without even trying.
>>68143508
>>68143500
pretty sure toph destroyed aang regularly when she was 12
also korra had ptsd and was mentally fucked, after she fixed herself or before she was broken in the first place korra>aang
All you dumbasses stop fighthing and post more Korra.
Toph is also welcome
>>68143533
>pretty sure toph destroyed aang regularly when she was 12
You mean she was able to hit him randomly before he could earth bend and when they weren't even fighting
We later see Aang spar with all his team v him in book 3 and he is easily winning
>>68143533
No excuse. Aang didn't cry or became a bitch when he realized that he had to man up and face Ozai. He dedicated his time to unlock bending and establish friendships. Meanwhile, Korra is so self-centred and a cunt that she would rather cry and contemplate suicide.
>>68143533
>pretty sure toph destroyed aang regularly when she was 12
But Aang beat her at the Earth Rumble, so no.
>>68143440
But Aang was as gay for Zuko as Korra was gay for Asami
>>68143489
Korra was a terrible bender and fighter
Aang, despite being a pacifist, was a beast in combat
People were just more super-human in Aang's era
>Defeats the most powerful bloodbender in history who wouldn't have even existed if Aang didn't let Yakone go
Didn't defeat him.
>competent alone and doesnt need too much help
Not true.
>beats literal Satan alone with no help
She had lots of help and would have died multiple times without it.
>brought the spirit and human worlds together
By accident.
>restored the air nation that Aang fucking abandoned to die
By accident.
>defeated 4 of the most powerful benders in the world who "together could take down the whole world" while full of poison
She did not defeat them all and in fact lost to Zaheer more or less.

Actually he did but only for one episode and then was ready. This was after he just kinda died as well while on the run
Korra is still a whiny baby

>got the hot girl
As a contrivance. Also she's impure now.
>>68142993
Korra had almost been killed ore than once. What made it PTSD worthy was the fact that she was slowly dying and was aware of it the whole time. Shit, when she came out she couldn't even walk. When Aang fucking died the nigga didn't even realize that shit. How the fuck is that comparable???
>>68143655
The PTSD is a gimmick to only feel sorry for Korra.
I didn't buy it.
I felt bad for Aang knowing what he had to face and his determination made me stand by him. I couldn't care less if reality slapped Korra across her whiny face.
>>68143655
Thats cause she was so bad, she was captured every other week by nobodies.
>>68143655
And what made her get over it? "Oh I guess I should do the thing." Fucking nothing. Hell most of her rehabilitation was off screen
It was an excuse to depower her for a while
Aang still had everything to deal with and kept strong once he had his sleep on koala sheep
>>68143392
Did you not see the Su vs Kuvira fight? Did you not see all that glorious fighting in the finale?
And that's just off the top of my head from the latest episodes.
>>68143489
Korra vs Aang would be Aang vs Zhao on the boats 2.0
>>68143606
what a retarded thing to say "well if it was an accident it must not have happened at all"
>>68143489
>korra would absolutely destroy aang
>>68143548
If they are in the spirit world I want Iroh to be in that Hot tub with them. Not doing anything sexual.
Just chillin and laying down some wisdom on them.
>>68143566
wtf you people act like Aang didn't spend most of book 1 being a whiny little bitch. As soon as book 3 started he was a whiny little bitch. As soon as the fight with ozai approached he was a whiny little bitch. Learning earthbending? Whiny little bitch. This kid bitched about everything. Come on.
>>68143688
>being this clueless
>>68143751
I'm not saying it didn't happen, retard. I'm saying she doesn't deserve credit for doing it of her own volition.
>>68143732
book 1 korra yes it probably would be
book 3/4 korra never in a million years would aang even come close to beating her
>>68143760
There is a difference between not wanting to fight due to pacifistic nature and being a whiny bitch. Aang represents the former, while Korra represents the latter.
>>68143604
Suki>Everyone else.
>>68143779

>>68143679
do you even know what a gimmick is? Or character development? I don't think you do, because if you did, you realize that recovering from PTSD influenced Korra's character. Aang was just whined until the universe gave him a way out.
>>68143688
>implying Aang never got caught by nobodies
>>68143708
The significant portions of her development took place on screen. It's like you guys don't know what PTSD is. Or just want any reason to hate korra. This guy Aang just had people cuddle him though his adventures
>>68143785
pffft
>>68143800
Completely different. What I'm saying is that Korra blundered her way into most of her achievements and the OP, though clearly bait, is untrue.
>>68143784
Aang was ready to fight, but wanted to sit back and cry because "muh teachings". Korra actually had a literal psychological block in her mind that prevented her from advancing.
Even though there are still alot of people who hate Korra for...little to no reason, at least it's more even nowadays. We can actually have this thread without it devolving into shit slinging.
>>68143823
>do you even know what a gimmick is? Or character development? I don't think you do, because if you did, you realize that recovering from PTSD influenced Korra's character.
It made you want to side with her only because she shed a tear and was completely different, right? There you go, use your brain and connect the dots.

funny when i'm OP and >>68143800
and it's not bait at all, i honestly dont understand how anyone can say aang is better than korra
>>68142838
>Implying Aang wasn't a publicly recognized concubine
>>68143847
You Korrafags never cease to amaze me. You eat up that shit writing now.
ATLA's ending would have been better ala Dragonball
Goku defeats Picollo, but doesn't kill him because he'll just be there to beat his ass down should he step out of line again
It's not perfect, but it's better than ion-turtle outta nowhere
>>68142993
>Aang:
>fucking dies
No he didn't, he just almost died, if he fully died then Raava and the Avatar spirit would be gone and kaput
>>68143783
book 3/4 korra never in a million years would aang even come close to beating her
Would you care to explain how your bullshit fantasy can happen?
Korra's Avatar mode has of throwing some big rocks and lifting water from a river.
Aang's avatar mode has raising up the sea, creating tornadoes.
Also Aang's bending is way more better than Korra's small time style
>>68142822
don't forget the bisexuality
>>68142758
>Defeats the most powerful bloodbender in history who wouldn't have even existed if Aang didn't let Yakone go
You mean, "kicks him out of a window and he escapes". Tarrlok defeated Amon.
>competent alone and doesnt need too much help
Cries and gets her bending back, from Aang; the guy you're talking shit about.
>beats literal Satan alone with no help
I'll give you that, but she also got her ass kicked and let the past avatars spirits be destroyed.
>brought the spirit and human worlds together
All she really did was leave the portals open.
>restored the air nation that Aang fucking abandoned to die
That was an indirect side effect from the portals being opened or something. Did they even explain it? Anyways, Tenzin is the one who has been building the air nation again. Korra just helped find people.
>defeated 4 of the most powerful benders in the world who "together could take down the whole world" while full of poison
Last time I checked, Suyin killed P'li, Ghazan killed himself, Mako killed Ming-Hua, and the airbenders stopped Zaheer with that tornado.
>took down a tyrannical dictator who had an almost unstoppable force of mass destruction
True, but she should have been stopped before she destroyed Republic City.
>created a new spirit portal which makes republic city the literal centre of the world
It was basically Kuvira who did that. Anyways, I wouldn't call that a good thing, you know, since it was the outcome of a huge explosion that nearly destroyed the whole city.
I like Korra, but acting like she's the best avatar is retarded.
>>68142932
Korra's a great bender, she keeps getting thrown into these fucking weird situations where conventional bending isn't very useful.
I can think of someone else with the same problem.

"more better" is actually correct you know.
>>68143931
>she keeps getting thrown into these fucking weird situations where conventional bending isn't very useful.
Bitch can airbend. When is that not useful? It is basically broken god mode when Aang uses it
She also has the full set meaning she has all the options plus has never stated a no kill rule. Korra should destroy everyone but they just make her lose as the plot needs her to
>>68143964
Aang's bending had a lot more imagination behind it.
Was Sifu Kisu even involved in Korra?
>>68143920
i said defeated no killed for amon and the red lotus
Amon was defeaed when he lost his support, his power was in followers.
i'll give you the point about the red lotus but it still doesnt take away from the fact that she was integral to the situation of even being able to take them down

True he wouldn't have existed, but Korra didn't defeat him, his brother killed him in a murder-suicide.
>competent alone and doesnt need too much help
When has she done ANYTHING competent, let alone by herself? If you mean nearly dooming the world yeh she does that completely on her own
>beats literal Satan alone with no help
Jinora
>brought the spirit and human worlds together
Giving them access to eachother and brining them together are completely different things. She didn't properly manage it
>restored the air nation that Aang fucking abandoned to die
Accidently did that.
>defeated 4 of the most powerful benders in the world who "together could take down the whole world" while full of poison
By 'defeat' you mean 'let them de-stabilise the earth kingdom and only avoid death with direct intervention from others' then yes, yes she did.
>took down a tyrannical dictator who had an almost unstoppable force of mass destruction
Actually she just guilted Kuvira with some mommy-daddy crap. If Kuvira had wanted she could have had her army come again and wreck the city.
>created a new spirit portal which makes republic city the literal centre of the world
And destroyed Republic city near totally in the process. BRAVO

Nope Aang

>don't worry Aang, have some fucking magic bring-you-from-the-dead-water.
>>68144026
DEFEATED not killed
Honestly based on what we know about past Avatars I would say the order from best to worst is:Yangchen>Korra=Aang>Kiyoshi>Roku>Kuruk.
Yangchen was so good at her job that the world had peace for a long time after she died.Both Aang and Korra messed up,had help from their friends,got some Deus Ex Machinas and had moments of weakness.However both of them did their part to protect the world.Kiyoshi screwed up by creating the Dai Li,which shows she did not think long term(if you give a ruler a secret police force eventually some ruler will use the secret police to opress the people).Roshi passed all his problems unto Aang and failed to stop Sozin when he had the chance.Kuruk did nothing and his wife lost her face to Koh.I did not include Wan because I have a hard time ranking him.
>>68144000
Pretty sure it was done on purpose, showing the change of times and how bending evolved from flashy shit to a focused style that cuts away all the unnecessary crap. Kind of how MMA showed how useless traditional martial arts were in a real fight, probending showed that flashy kung-fu-esque bending was easily defeated.
>>68143016
>He would have been flat out murdered by any opponent Korra had faced
You mean like the bloodbender who got his ass kicked by Aang?
>>68144039
Less worse, is also correct.
And what the hell is "worser"
>>68143880
You TLAfags are ridiculous, as if the only way Aang can be good is if Korra is shit. I didn't even think LOK was much more that "alright", but I can see you guys are bullshit.
>>68144019
i do have an argument, if you think aang would have defeated any of korras villains if he was in her place you're extremely extremely deluded, whereas kora wouldve done the same as aang against Ozai but she wouldve finished the job
>>68144055
Defeat implies her actions effected the outcome that much. It was the efforts of many, like his brother who outed him as a water bender and that henchmen who turned against him that did most of it. Korra just had to charge in and punch stuff. Bravo.
>>68143120
this is how I've always viewed the nations too
>>68144082
i really hope that english isnt your first language
>>68144091
Not that anon, but which version of Aang are you talking about here that couldn't take on Korra's opponents. Aang at the beginning of Book 1 or end of Book 3?
>>68143016
Oh yeah tell me how Aang would lose Zaheer.
Tenzin wiped the floor with Zaheer.
Kuvira would be nothing to Aang he would just trap him in a block of ice or a wall of earth.
Or drop a giant rock at her, bash her ass with airbending.
Also Korra would get turned into a slut slave against Azula's gang, you cannot deny this whatever you do
>>68144068
>You mean like the bloodbender who got his ass kicked by Aang?
No I mean the son of the bloodbender who adult Aang at the prime of his power barely defeated while in avatar state. Amon was infinily more powerful than his father and his father was able to have Toph, her police and Aang frozen in place before he activated the avatar-hax. There is literally nothing ATLA Aang could have done against Amon. Nor against Zaheer, nor Unalaaq or even Kuvira.
>>68144061
Wan should be on top of all of them.
>>68144062
I mean I get why they did this to fit into the whole idea of changing times and having to adapt / whether or not the Avatar is useful anymore, but I would take creative fight scenes over MMA boxing / punching elements realism anyday. Sham we only started to see it with the red lotus fights and a few in Book 4, particularly that excellent Su / Kuvira one.
>>68144007
>but it still doesnt take away from the fact that she was integral to the situation of even being able to take them down
Explain how. I remember this happening:
>she gets captured
>tied up and poisoned
>Jinora tells them where they are (I think)
>Korra goes into the avatar state and rampages
>Zaheer runs away and Korra chases him
>Bolin and Mako take care of the other two members
>Korra is mainly getting thrown around by Zaheer
>Was getting suffocted by Zaheer
>Airbenders make a huge tornado
>Korra pulls Zaheer down by a chain
If anything, Jinora was the integral in taking down the Red Lotus, since she told everyone where she was, and came up with the tornado idea.
>>68144082
worse already implies its less good (the correct term) and better already implies more good (the correct term) so saying more before it is wrong. it's effectively like saying a double negative i.e "i never done nothing". educate yourself
>>68144128
Yet Amon never did something like what happened in that court room
In fact he fucking wasted his power and it took ages for him to fuck with people
Aang and Korra were two different Avatars. But, Aang had a harder task.
There was not a single climactic fight Korra was engaged in that didn't feature an external source of help to supplement her flailing, clueless style. Aang was everything Korra is, and a statesman to boot.
Korra's legend is a flailing disaster.
>>68144091
>Korra would win Aang would lose
>LOOK I GOT AN ARGUMENT
Aang already kicked Amon's father's ass.
An amateur airbender like Zaheer would stand no chance against Aang and Aang also can fly in Avatar mode.
Kuvira vs Aang would be Shifu Yan Lei vs Mohammed Ali
>>68142947
If you watch Korra ad The Last Airbender side by side, the difference in art style and quality is a little jarring, especially when it comes to color depth in Water
>>68144120
end of book 3 aang could probably take kuvira, none of the others. beginning of book 1 aang would be dead in seconds
>>68144126
Tenzin is a better airbender than 12 year old Aang.
If Aang is such a badass why did he never do that shit with Azula?
>>68144128
If adult Aang could do it, doesn't it stand to reason that young Aaang could, since the Avatar State's power wouldn't have changed at all?
>>68144126
>Also Korra would get turned into a slut slave against Azula's gang, you cannot deny this whatever you do
Are you crazy? Korra would fucking wreck Azula. Azula's gang was a joke. Mai's entire fighting style was based on throwing knives at clothes of people to pin them in place for crying out loud and she was supposed to be considered a threat!
Deal with it, Aang was a complete and utter weakling, he never won anything without the avatar state.
>>68144165
B-but muh red lotus! and she ggot a hot girl am I right :^)
>>68144154
You do realize "less worse" is the same as better?
>>68144126
zaheer wasn't alone though, he had ming-hua, ghazan and p'li which is how they beat anyone, alone theyre little to no threat but together they wipe the floor with anyone, especially aang
>>68144174
Oh I hope you're trolling then.
Aang at the end of Book 3 has control of the Avatar state, Amon gets BTFO
Aang at the end of Book 3 has better bending and takes more advantage of the Avatar state's knowledge boost than Korra, Unalaq gets BTFO
Zaheer gets BTFO cause of the above too, and may or may not get his bending taken away at some point
>>68144147
>korra not there
>airbenders all dead
zaheer, ghazan, p'li, ming-hua fuck everyones shit up, its very simple
>>68144189
In that case, doesn't that mean Korra in avatar state could have done everything Aang did as well? So really, every single win Aang had while in avatar state would be an easy win for Korra in avatar state as well. At least before it got broken by Unalaaq.
>>68144193
Azula was one of the best benders in ATLA, even Toph couldn't catch her.
>I will stick out the weakest of the group so no one will think about the other 2.
Azula is also a goddamn master at dodging and acrobatics.
We have seen Korra get blocked by normal chi blockers and you think she can take out Ty LEe and Azula together?
Drop the fanboyism
>>68144172
amon was more powerful than his father by far, zaheer wasnt the threat alone, he had ghazan, p'li, ming-hua too and they'd fuck him up
if korra wasnt poisoned she wouldve wiped the floor with zaheer, youre not telling me that if aang was poisoned like korra that he wouldnt get shit on like korra did
>>68144238
She can't control it and loses it and all the old avatars so nah she's fucked
>>68144263
What feat of Amon's qualifies him above his father?
>>68144204
How could 4 of them would be able to take out Aang fully in Avatar mode?
The only threat there would be Ming Hua which probably would get buried or frozen
>>68143120
And then you have the Native Americans who showed up in the oasis town. That was pretty unexpected, but I'm guessing they're also Earth Kingdom?
>>68144263
>amon was more powerful than his father by far,
since when? I never saw him do shit on his level
>>68144217
And yet Aang lost to Azula's little schoolgirl squad, Jet and motherfucking Zuko. But sure, he could take down the deadliest bloodbender ever and elite benders of the Red Lotus without any effort at all.
Just let it go, man. Aang sucked and the villains he faced were far weaker than any of the villains Korra faced. That's not a detriment to the quality of ATLA, it's just a fact.
>>68144288
Taking away other people's bending is beyond Yakone.
>>68144217
he might possibly be able to take amon
unavaatu would DESTROY him theres no doubt, you must be lying to yourself
in the same situation as korra, if he was poisoned he'd get murdered by zaheer
>>68144218
They managed to tornado a flying airbender.
Same thing could be applied to all 4 of them
Aang had the actual respect of the world, nothing Korra did ever gained her respect, she basically lived her life off of Avatar cotails
>>68144062
>showing the change of times and how bending evolved from flashy shit to a focused style that cuts away all the unnecessary crap
>all the unnecessary crap
That doesn't work when the complicated forms let you make shit like fire tornadoes and rock armor. The forms existed because they were the best way to bend, period, end of story.
Also MMA is gay shit, It's basically just wrestling because it's entirely ground game.
>>68144026
You'd die without water.
>>68144297
That seemed like a unique application of bloodbending, but not a feat of higher skill. Yakone manipulated a whole courtroom of people without the slightest effort. Amon never did that, even in situations where it would have benefited him.
>>68144268
Only after the whole Zaheer thing can she not control it. When Korra first got the avatar state, it's the exact same as with Aang, she becomes a vessel for all her past lifes. Every single thing Aang ever accomplished could also be accomplished by Korra by default, that's the whole idea of the avatar state.
>>68144273
he could blood bend people without them being aware of it, like when he took zolts bending and redirected all of his attacks with bloodbending, his father could not do this
>>68143489
>Implying Korra and Aang wouldn't go penguin sledding and Koi surfing instead
>>68143136
You ever think that the reason Korra was so shit was BECAUSE it tried to appeal to more mature viewers? Some of my favorite cartoons appeal to kids but don't talk down to them, turning out to be for all audiences.
>>68144296
>And yet Aang lost to Azula's little schoolgirl squad
no. She caught him off guard once but in their first encounter they drew
> Jet
Beat by end of episode
>Zuko
Constantly thrown into builds etc by Aang even early on. He was a joke for Aang
>>68144288
>since when?
Since his father said so that his son had more potential than him and since his father got killed by him? Did you even watch this show?
>>68144282
what?
>>68143548
I want to see Korra and Asami visit the bath house from Spirited Away so badly
>tfw there is a sourpuss spirit named Lin
>>68144296
Aang took down the second deadliest bloodbender. Compared to Avatar State, Amon has 0 chance. That's one down.
Korra lost to some simple chi blockers too. Meanwhile Ty Lee is probably one of the best chi blockers.
You should stop underestimating Azula She is a goddamn good bender and way better than Kuvira if we are to compare.
Avatar State and could easily take down Red Lotus without any effort yeah. Tell me how he cannot if you can find a way.
>>68144273
taking peoples bending away too
>>68144352
can you actually show this at all though?
Their dad does stuff neither are shown to be ever able to
>>68144296
>But sure, he could take down the deadliest bloodbender ever
Book 1 already showed that Avatar state > bloodbending, Aang has controlled Avatar state, he wins
>>68144305
>unavaatu would DESTROY him theres no doubt, you must be lying to yourself
Someone clearly didn't see Aang in Avatar State vs Ozai
>in the same situation as korra, if he was poisoned he'd get murdered by zaheer
Kek, but no, you don't even bring up any evidence from the show to support your argument and Aang's better at Avatar state than Korra and better experienced even in airbending so fighting someone in flight isn't as big a problem and he's already shown he can catch a dude flying
>>68144345
You ever think that the reason why YOU think Korra was shit is because you prefer childish shows? That doesn't make more mature shows automatically bad, you know. It just means you are a manchild with bad taste.
Aang:
>turned himself over to Zuko to save the Southern Water Tribe
>Is easily a better bender compared to Korra, or most people in LOK.
>Saved the Northern Water Tribe from being wiped out
>constantly solving people's problems, and helping people out in general. "The Great Divide", Hei Bai, fire nation colonies in earth kingdom territory, creating republic city.
>saved a town from being destroyed by a volcano, with airbending alone. Without even using the avatar state
>Outwitted a fire nation general and made him destroy his own fleet of ships
>created a huge zoo for the animals in
>learned three elements in less than a year, each element in one day.
>returned Tom-Tom to his parents, like any nice person would do
>destroyed the firenation drill that was infiltrating Ba Sing Se
>beat the firelord and made sure he couldn't hurt anyone else
I'm probably forgetting some things. I also haven't read the comics.
>>68144383
Aang would meditate 10 seconds in that tree and turn into giant Aang too then. Same thing, Unavaaut dies, no need for Jinora
>>68142947
>Maturity
God, I hate how this word is used wrong. it obnoxiously shows how childish a person is trying to be mature.
>>68144273
>What feat of Amon's qualifies him above his father?
Uh I dunno, how about effortlessly controling his father through bloodbending and killing him while he was still a child?
>>68144383
>implying ozai is even 1% as strong as unavaatu
>>68143909
He said himself that he was dead and Katara's quick thinking with the spirit water brought him back
>>68144386
>mfw Aang was a more strong independent woman than Korra. As a child.
>>68144403
You forgot one thing.
Korra was a prodigy avatar, bending fire earth and water when she was just a child.
She got trained by White Lotus for years
Even with that, she turned out to be a shitty bender.
That takes some skill
The ending to LOK was much better than TLAB, in TLAB Aang gets thrown around like a rag doll for a little bit before hitting his back on a magical rock, then he just turns into a boring flying brick that just steam rollers over Ozai, the second Aang went avatar mode all tension just drained out of the fight and it just became a who can throw the biggest thing competition. Also Aang never really tried to help Ozai, he just crippled him an threw him in a dark room forever.
LOC was much better really fulfilling Zahir's statement about the avatar having limitless potential but never having her become boringly superior, its a great fight where Kuvira keeps raising the stakes but no matter how far she takes it Korra seems to effortless match her until Kuvira literally fires infinite energy at her and she shrugs it off without even breaking a sweat. Kuvira finally realises there is nothing she can do to break Korra, the most important bit is that Korra then takes the time to sit and try to empathise with Kuvira, like a parent that has just waited for the temper tantrum to burn itself out and now wants to guide her errant child to more helpfully expressing their feelings. That's what the Avatar is about, not stomping on the baddies but guiding the world to natural, spiritual and personal balance.
>Before lesbian finale
"Jesus Korra is the worst character. What an asshole."
>After lesbian finale
"KORRA IS THE BEST CHARACTER AND SHE COULD TOTALLY BEAT AANG BECAUSE SHE IS THE BEST AVATAR EVER".
That's /co/ alright. /u/ lite at this point.
>>68144403
>returned Tom-Tom to his parents, like any nice person would do
>created a huge zoo for the animals in
>constantly solving people's problems, and helping people out in general. "The Great Divide", Hei Bai, fire nation colonies in earth kingdom territory, creating republic city.
pointless shit points
>implying korra couldnt have done every single one of thise things with minimal effort
top kek
>>68143910
Korra was flying around with fire jets, using Hulk smash strength, and shearing the tops off of mountains to use as projectiles AFTER she lost her past lives. Then she bent Kuvira's death ray after it was powered up with unlimited spirit power.
Aang's avatar state only raised the sea when he was hijacked by the ocean spirit
>>68144443
Kuvira was plot armor the character for the entire season.
Also everyone can compare last 10 minutes of one episode against a whole season.
Just ignore everything in Book 3 of ATLA yeah, that is a good comparison
Insufferable faggots defend their faggot-pandering character. Who would have guessed?
>>68144406
>Aang would meditate 10 seconds in that tree and turn into giant Aang too then
Honestly if not for plot, Aang would actually just beat Unavaatu before he ever goes giant. In fact he'd probably be the one to extract Vaatu from Unalaq and destroy Vaatu (it's not killing or death if the person comes back perfectly fine, loophole to air nomad pacifism). Then Unalaq just gets put in jail or something afterwards
>>68144418
I'm talking about bending feats and creativity, which Korra lacks in compared to Aang
>>68144449
OP here, i always thought korra was better than aang even before the finale, her being a lesbian has nothing to do with it, we're not tumblr
>>68144418
Comet Ozai would laugh at unavaatu
And by laugh I mean destroy utterly
>>68144218
Korra getting captured or not wouldn't have affected the outcome of the airbenders being saved.
Korra didn't tell everyone where the airbenders were.
Korra didn't save the airbenders
P'li was dead before Korra was even captured. In case you don't realize, Tenzin was kicking Red Lotus ass until P'li shot at him.
Bolin and Mako handled Ghazan and Ming-hua.
All Korra did was get captured and fight Zaheer in the avatar state. The airbenders getting saved didn't have anything to do with her. They would have been found anyways.
>>68144194
Katara was hot, brown but hot.
>>68144435
He was a whiny vegan hippie and a complete brat. If Korra had done any of the shit Aang did, such as lying to Katara and Sokka about the letter from their father, people like you would NEVER let that go. But because it's Aang and because he's just a stupid child, none of that shit is ever held against him. Meanwhile Korra has been treating on eggshells for the entire show.
