Not really if anything Korra and asami are the cuck's since he cheated on both of them with the other one. He's just a bad boyfriend who didn't expect that love triangles could leave the guy stranded.

Comics are very likely.

Because she's a reasonable person and was trying to establish that she wasn't annoyed out of spite at Korra or anything.

>>68131835
Nah, Korra took on the burden of suffering by the end of S3. The only suffering Asami had in S3-S4 was losing her dad, and that was mostly offset by making up with him in the first place.

>>68131933
They had no idea what to do with her for S2, but they figured out in S3 what they should've in S2, namely that Asami's place was to be Korra's friend and moral support.

Let's be real, Mako has long since abandoned any thought of romance or personal life in pursuit of his work as a police officer. He is on the fast track to becoming Lin 2.0.

>>68135046

While this is great, Korra saving Kuvira and talking her down is the best scene. That was a really beautiful expression of her development as a character.
>>
>>68135246
She was her fear of failing and being a letdown of an avatar. They really should have had a really quick scene of her fading or something after the bit with Zaheer or something and Korra having a sigh of relief or something.

Korra got cucked first, since Mako stained Asami with his smelly policeman semen.

>>68135347

Why would Nick decide to continue the franchise without them? The core audience wouldn't watch it, and lord knows Korra wasn't a resounding success for the network when aired traditionally, so who exactly would be their planned target audience?

Even if they somehow did go full retard enough to greenlight a sequel, do you really think Nick a decade or so down the road would want to be known as a "homophobic" network?

>>68135468
Do Nick have control over the comics?
>>
>>68135046
The best scene of the finale was when Tenzin, Pema, and Lin went off and had that threesome.

Or maybe I'm just imagining that part because it's slightly more believable than what actually happened.
>>
>>68131510
So do I, Asami. It's a pretty good show.
>>
Will Bryke ever have the balls to set the record straight on what they intended from the finale?
>>
>>68135520

There would be no reason for Nick not to greenlight comics, since the ATLA ones have seemingly been very successful. While Korra missed Nick's target audience, the series hit a bulls-eye with the kind of people who read comics. I'd be shocked if Dark Horse didn't approach Nick about acquiring the comic rights, especially since they need more big new properties to replace Star Wars.

>>68135568
>Or maybe I'm just imagining that part because it's slightly more believable than what actually happened.

What exactly are you bitching about, anon? I sure hope it's not the relationship that has been subtly hinted at for over a season.

>>68135618
Michael has already re-shared several articles talking about how great it was that Korra and Asami are totally gay, so yeah, they definitely seem intent on setting the record straight later on.
>>
>>68135445
>>68135499
Not that guy but I do think it was a bit weak.

Being able to go toe to toe with the Avatar attempting to blow up republic city and the avatar in a last ditch effort, only to fail and end up in a solo confrontation with the avatar again only to just give up.

Korra should've killed Kuvira. That would've made things a little more believable.

Also it really felt like someone watched too much Attack on Titan before writing that season finale.
>>
>>68132069
Korra was the best written character in LoK. Much as Zuko was in ATLA.

She was kind of a cunt at the start though, yeah.
>>
>>68135618
They're already all but come out and straight up said it.
>>
>>68135618
No. Ambiguous shit like that generate more media buzz and longevity.

And since Korra for a good majority was a piece of crap outside of say part of season 1, majority of s3, and small portion of s4, it's mostly going to be remembered as the one cartoon that might have had a lesbian ending

>>68135663
>Korra should've killed Kuvira. That would've made things a little more believable.

Are you serious? Korra's entire story arc has been the character learning the need to employ words and emotion over her fists. Ending with a straight-up beatdown of Kuvira would have been so much weaker than Korra finally successfully becoming the Avatar she's striven to be for four seasons: an individual who is just as capable of fulfilling the Avatar's role of mediator as enforcer. Season 1 Korra probably would have let Kuvira died. Season 4 Korra was willing to put her life on the line to talk down someone who'd repeatedly tried to kill her.

Kuvira giving up made perfect sense to me. She saw herself as doing what was right for her people even as she slipped further and further into extremism, and she was surrounded by yes-men without anyone to engage her in a rational challenge to her ideals. Once she started razing an innocent city and attempting to kill her fiancee, it became much more difficult for her to convince herself that she was still a hero.

In the end, Kuvira was exactly what /co/ wanted: a villain with some actual depth and redeeming qualities, who was able to recognize that she'd gone too far and become the very thing she wanted to prevent.

>>68135771
>they will literally set the record straight

Go read the tumblr story about the importance of Korra and Asami being gay to one family that Michael called heartwarming or some shit, and seriously re-evaluate your position.

Honestly Korra sparing Kuvira felt a lot more meaningful and well written than Aang sparing Ozai.

It means a lot more to spare a life when you're not a pacifist, and have actually killed before. (Korra straight up murdered Unalaq's soul, remember)

S2 really drags the others down, but I'd consider S1 solid and S3-S4 very good. I don't even mind the romance bullshit in S1, but the unfortunately rushed ending hurt the season. The show has all-around great characters, great action, and fun humor throughout most of its run. I really can't call TLOK anything less than at least good.

>>68131923
Asami puking the slop into the bowl remains my favorite TLOK reaction face.

Would people agree that Korra's biggest problems were that it was originally only supposed to be 12 episodes and then following seasons were only 13-14 eps long?

If Bryke had known from the start how much time they had could it have been better?

>>68132817
With LoK, it's not a question of whether the show is good or bad-- it's always been a question of "how bad is it?"

>>68136259
Bah, nonsense. Madoka is 12 episodes long, Luther is fucking 6 episodes.

You can make a good story with limited time.
>>
>>68135663
I personally thought they played it almost perfectly. I think one last, impotent punch from Kuvira in the Spirit World before breaking down would've been better, bet eh.

After the robot blew up, seeing Kuvira get up, injured, and run into the Spirit Wilds was amazing for me. I love when villains are totally defeated and run away in vain. And having her use the laser in a last ditch attempt to just up and kill korra, and end up causing destruction she couldn't stop, it was just great. I rolled my eyes a bit when the beam was about to pass over her, but Korra saving her saved the moment from being trite.

I feel like they handled Kuvira extremely well in the finale, save for the whole exchange with Su. It was hitting all the right spots for me, but like I said before, I think resorting to fists would've been nice.

Kuvira new she'd been beat. She knew she'd gone too far. She wanted the Empire to be strong, not to be strong, but to not be weak. It makes sense. Especially when we saw the flashback with Su. She wanted Su to do it. It wasn't opportunism on her part, but desperation.

Kuvira was a great villain, and was handled well in the end, though it was bumpy at some points. I think that one missing episode (that turned into the clip show) could've done a lot to help flesh out Kuvira (as well as Korrasami).
>>
>>68136259
No. Korra's biggest problem was pacing and low level writing
>>
>>68136259
I'd agree with that yeah.

I still don't think it should have had 24-26 episodes like ATLA, since it was always meant to have tighter pacing. But 16-18 episodes would have been great. And it's clear they kinda had to reset things at the end of Book 1 when they got more seasons.

Season 3 was mainly just ending the season without it feeling rushed, which was a recurring problem from previous seasons.

Season 4 they kinda took a step back in terms of writing, so a lot of shit felt really fucking slow at times.
>>
>>68136259
Imagine anon. A planned series. Four books, two based on zaheer, then two on kuvira. First half of book one could have conflict that leads to new airbenders, or alternatively zaheer and co are active while zaheer still doesnt have bending, showdown in b1 finale = new airbenders. Then time skip, then kuvira and remnants of red lotus b3 and b4.

Season one was admittedly a bit of a cunt (but only in relation to korra, who was also a cunt). Season two he was fine, seasons 3 and 4 he got sidelined hard but when he was let out he was based as fuck. He really did grow into a fucking bro by the finale.

>>68136259

Yeah, the lack of knowledge that the show would continue really hurt. S1's ending was way too compressed, and S2 was basically Bryke flailing around trying to figure out what to do as a followup.

The self-contained villain seasons actually worked out pretty well for the show overall, much to my surprise. The Red Lotus and Kuvira were both established, developed as interesting and compelling villains, and defeated in a single short season, while Team Avatar's character arcs carried over in between seasons (much like, say, Buffy.) The end to Amon's character arc was fumbled a little before that beautiful murder-suicide, but that's Bryke's fault for not having him defeated by Korra in a more believable manner rather than any fault of the available time.

>>68136276
Bryke as a creative team definitely benefit from the ability to see what's working for fans and correct based on that.

>>68136380
>(hints don't qualify as plotline)

Yes, they do. Korra and Asami had started dancing around each other, metaphorically speaking, by the end of S3. Now that we know the intent was for those hints to be romantic all along, it's really easy to look back and see the beginnings of romantic interest that finally sparked into a real relationship with the series finale.

Bryke just did us all a favor and kept the romance in the background.

the weakest villain korra's ever fought manages to get away with shit because she runs a hitler like campaign across the earth nation and korra is still too mind broken from her battle with zaheer to do shit.

Also Toph shows up, confirms what we already know that Korra's a shitty avatar, Asami's dad dies, zhu li talks, zhu li and varrick get married, lesbian korrasami ending
>>
>>68136380
makorra was the endgame of season 1 (before the finale it was Masami with hints of Makorra), and their relationship was a downward spiral which lasted either half of or all of season 2 depending on whether you count the time after memory loss.
in this case, I would say that a bad relationship was worse for establishing series endgame than the hints given for eventual korrasami

of course, I wanted korrasami since their first interaction in season 1, so I'm biased
>>
>>68136506
It's not as good as season 3 but it's still really good.

Thing is it's largely an introspective thing centered around Korra, especially for the first half. So if you hate Korra as a character you're gonna hate this season. Plus it was unusually structured for an Avatar season.

I'd rather keep the 4 villains, 4 seasons. That actually worked out quite well, and indeed ATLA did something similar with Zuko as S1's main villain, Azula as S2's, and Ozai as S3's. Just have more of Korra's self-esteem issues and the fallout from the Equalists carry over into S2, and make Unalaq/Vaatu less cartoonishly evil. Have Unalaq be out to destroy/co-opt Vaatu for the good of the world or something, and genuinely intent on helping Korra at first, and then it all backfires and he ends up going full Dark Avatar.

Also have Korra and Asami actually become friends in S2, because it was just plain idiotic that they weren't, especially since Korra's daddy issues were a big theme and Asami understood that better than just about anyone.

With a powervaccuum left over from the red lotus killing the Earth Queen, a rogue military force from a neutral city-state is assisting in bringing the chatoic Earth Kingdom back to stability. The leader of this military force, after spending three years stabilizing the country, decides she's not going to relinquish control to a naive new ruler and declares the country is her's to rule.

She takes her rogue military force back to her home city-state and attacks it, taking the city's leaders and it's people. She then forces a brilliant engineer to create a super weapon to take the last piece of neutral land left in the country under her heel.

This fails when the Avatar and company topple her greatest weapon and the Avatar is willing to save the leader of the rogue military force and convinces her to give up on her rampage.

The Avatar then leaves to go to the spirit world with her friend for a vacation.

Then it hit me that they could have just made a show about the Gaang as adults, and then depression.

It became cool to hate on Korra thanks to her pig-headedness at the end of S1 and for most of S2. Some people still just haven't been able to accept that S3 turned Korra into a pretty level-headed and good person.

>>68136738
Do explain what you think Bryke intend to suggest by sharing various stories and articles talking about how great it is that Korra has a canon gay couple, then.

Asami helping Korra with physical tasks, holding her hand, and letting her know that she would be there for her is the first really intimate moment between the two characters, and more that could easily be read as romantic proceed from there.

Yeah but cross ange stated up front or at least heavily implied up front that all the characters might be lesbians or definately were. Therefore no one would really care. Korra on the other hand was shown in season one to be fairly boy crazy, she basically attacked Mako as soon as she saw him, they then most of season two dating only to break it off near the end. Asami as well in season one was presented as heterosexual pursuing a relationship with Mako as well. She also tried to restart it in season 2 when Mako breaks up with Korra. Season 3 had little to no romantic leanings (and was the strongest by far) Then suddenly she and Asami become gay in the last season out of left field for no reason. Its just stupid doesnt make sense and seems like pandering, especially for a show which is expected to have decent writing. Cross Ange on the other hand is not expected to be anything other than fapbait.

I think I have to agree. Or maybe Hiroshi's death. Sure we all saw it coming. Someone had to die a heroic death, and he was the only expendable character in the cast.

Also just any Varrick scene. But that may just be me. I love it how everyone just forgot he was a criminal just like Hiroshi. Or maybe even worse. Hiroshi was motivated by what he thought would be better for Republic City. Varrick was just motivated by business interests.

Varrick really was the one bright spot in the first half of season 2.

Yes.

But they also clearly planned the Lion Turtle ahead, even though it was a terrible, poorly executed cop out. The fact that it was sitting there for three seasons as part of the actual plan makes it that much worse.

The biggest problem about Korrasami is there were plenty of moments to develop it that Bryke just ignored.

I mean, why is Asami nearly completely absent from the finale? Why doesn't she talk with Korra before the final battle? Why isn't Korra worried about her safety right as her dad saves her from being crushed?

There were so many times they could have implied more but they only have these barely anything more than platonic overtones that somehow are supposed to explain the whole thing and not make it seem like a rushed last minute decision.

It just doesn't work, especially when they really did care about Mako. It's a forced coincidence. There should have been another female character that had nothing to do with him.

Basically this whole post explains why it's poorly developed.

For the record, I would have preferred Korra to not be in a relationship at the end.

Wow, whoa, download time.

Also I hear Code Geass is good, should I watch that as well? I feel like /co/ has good taste in anime.

Wait until the commentary track for that

Even more reason Asami should have been in the finale more. It never feels like they genuinely care about each other other than Asami always being like "Glad to see you."

>People here are already adoring TTG and shitting on TT.
They are?

Jesus Christ.

I mean I liked LoK more than ATLA and even I think that's insane.

I'd agree with you if they actually kissed in the ep.
>Just a tease of Korrasami would have been enough
A tease is all we fucking got.

It could have benefited from more time, yes.

But Asami cared about Korra way more than you're giving her credit for this season. I mean in that one flashback she was wanting to abandon everything and go with Korra to the South Pole for her recovery. And she was pretty pissed off Korra left her.

Korra really could have used more Avatar Extras and little comedy shorts. They had super deformed models drawn up and everything

Episode 12 when.

Confirmed for didn't read. They never had to be explicit about it, there were plenty of ways they could have just interacted more.

Someone needs to count how much screentime Asami had in the series compared to everyone else because I'm pretty sure Lin is even more important than her.

Korra's VA has been shipping Korrasami since Book 1 and it's hilarious how much she gushes in the commentary whenever Asami is onscreen.
