And remained that way throughout.
End of season 1: fucks up and loses her powers
End of season 2: fucks up and destroys the Avatar cycle along with the connection to every single previous Avatar from the past thousand years
End of season 3: fucks up and almost destroys the Avatar cycle again, gets poisoned with mercury, chained up with platinum, and forced into the Avatar state so that when killed in such a way the whole cycle dies forever
End of season 4: fucks up and destroys the united city then fucks off to the spirit world avoiding the consequences of her actions yet again
Korra is one of the worst protagonists ever. She accomplishes next to nothing. She wipes out decades of heritage. She never listens to Tenzin. She was horrible to both Mako and Bolin - both of whom deserved far better. She constantly falls in with the wrong people despite being warned otherwise. She almost ends the world at least twice. And she is constantly needing bailed out of her fuckups.
More like:
Season 1: learns to respect the teachings of old as well as respect the delicate new world. She pays a heavy price to learn this lesson, but it is fixed through deus ex machina.
Season 2: learns to be weary of authority, even when the goals of said authority sound just. Pays a heavy price to learn this lesson.
Season 3: she is literally beaten down to her lowest, and has to rely on her friends to save her.
Season 4: recovers from the harsh reality of season 3 after heavy counseling, learning to empathize with the villains such that she can deescalate a crisis. (granted, the de-escalation comes pretty late).
Seasons 1-4: is a shitty romantic interest and toys with the love lives of her friends.
