Just because I like guessing how the plot may unfold.
Also:

Awesome just watched both. I have got to say that I am very surprised at how good it turned out to be so far. I didn't think it would be this good!


I agree. That would be a very good plot twist, but now that you mention it, it seems too easy.

From what I saw in the trailer, it says it's what, 100 years after the Aang saga? The fact that it sorta looks like a modern city and I'm pretty sure I saw a motorcycle, kinda turns me off. Someone convince me otherwise-I just watched the 4-part ending of the Aang saga and it was amazing.

It's 70 years after Aang, and it's less of a modern city, more of a 1930s city.

Just go to korranation.com, watch the first two episodes and decide for yourself. They held true to the Aang series and didn't make this one totally bizzarre or way off like I thought they would.

What does the setting matter? It's got the same mood and spirit as the original show did, and technological revolutions are fairly reasonable -


Don't forget the fact that they've got metal bending, now.

Under a united empire of benders and the addition of metal bending, I'm not surprised at all.

The show looked to have taken a logical progression with the state of affairs. And what's nice, is that it's not just 1 evil puppy kicking nation vs. everyone else for this series's conflict, but something more fundamental. The legend of Korra is very much keeping with the spirit of the original series, but from what I can tell, it's going to introduce more mature themes into the story. Probably helps that the protagonist is a 16 year old http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/ActionGirl/WesternAnimation instead of a 100 year old 12 year old, traveling with other kids around his age (not to say the original didn't have them).

I like Legend of Korra so far, it probably helps that I liked the original series & I like a strong female lead & that it seems that it's well done

Just watched the first two episodes last night on Nick (The only thing in a long time to catch my eye when channel surfing and landing on Nick). I gotta say...I love it. I went in expecting to hate it, what with the new setting and characters, but they've done an amazing job with this one. The feel of the original show is definitely still there, and even more stunning is the fact that I like Korra far more than Aang. She's like an advlt (yet still childish) Katara. I'm also a huge svcker for the Pro-Bending subplot, as it reminds me of my favorite anime of all time, Angelic Layer. Also, Steve Blum voice acting a villain? Sign me the [censored] up, I'm following the hell outta this series.

Oh thank God... for a moment I thought this was another M. Night Shaymalan film...

I stumbled upon the first episode, and I forgot about the second one until I saw this thread. I still managed to catch the last ten minutes. I've really enjoyed it so far. The plot is right on track with the original, the animation is better IMO, and I actually like the setting. Amon is a pretty cool villain in my eyes as well, so that helps.

He's also voiced by Steve Blum, so of course he's going to be awesome

FORUM! What's up!

New episode highlights!

Just saw the latest episode

That would just be too vanilla. I don't get that vibe from this series.

Would be ok, but I want some of the main characters to not be related to any of the already established characters from the first series.

awesome, all i can really say. Well also that lightning has become really mundane?

Is there anywhere I can watch the new episode without Nickelodeon...? I don't have the option of watching that channel..

http://www.nick.com/videos/clip/legend-of-korra-103-the-revelation-full-episode.html should work if you're in North America. If you're not, well then there's no legal way to do so.

Ah, I remember this, I used to watch the original show. I might check this out, it seems good.
