Lol, do they not realise how much worse this continues to make Korra?
If they were capable of thinking through implications or maintaining internal consistency in their settings, Korra’s story would have been written much differently in the first place. It’s really incredible that they managed to make something as good as the original ATLA. From what I understand, even the post-ATLA comics that followed the original characters after the events of that series did an impressive job of disappointing fans. Were there other writers involved in the original that were not in for the sequel products?
One of the main problems the series had was each season was ended up being far more standalone than what Aang had done. While each season/book of Aang was separate they were still part of the larger story about Aang mastering the other elements and finally facing down Firelord Ozai. Korra meanwhile ends up as 4 mini stories with no real direction.
