Too be honest I really liked Legend Of Korra .Even when Nick gave up on the show they still delivered good solid seasons 3 and 4 did the show creators. I liked best about the series was that teenage and young love is complicated and liked how Korra was different from Last Air Bender .

"i'm so pissed at korra!" is gonna be a new catchphrase, friends. LMFAO

I thought it was pretty clear that non benders can have a bender child. Hakoda and Kya were non-benders yet had Katara who is a water bender.

Skeletor 路 May 17, 2017

Im pretty certain Katara's dad was a water bender or maybe i am remembering wrong. Im sorry your right. I am thinking of Korras dad.

John Mazuelos 路 May 15, 2017

You guys are thinking about how bending is passed down unto offspring too much. I love it, though. A firebender and waterbender can have children that could be firebenders, waterbenders, or no bending ability at all. An earthbender and non-bender can have nonbending and earth bending children. The one thing that isn't clear is if two non benders can have bending children? Shrugs... And no it isn't decided by region, it's decided by the bending / lack of bending ability of the parents.

I know you guys probably know this already but please ignore the Korra naysayers in the youtube comments. There is a small but vocal group of people who love putting down the show. It's not a perfect show but it's still wonderful. Concerning the production of the show. While the show was split into 4 books, the production was actually split between two production seasons. Nickelodeon initially ordered half a season for the first book. and then subsequently ordered the second half of the first season followed by the second season for a total of 52 episodes. Due to a scheduling conflict, the original animation studio. Studio Mir, had declined to animate book 2. So you see a difference in the look of the show at the beginning of book 2. Nickelodeon practically begged Studio Mir to animate the remaining episodes and you see a return to the quality of the animation around the half way mark of the second book.

Yep she really does seem more like a firebender...watch her fights closely throughout the series. She usually opens up with firebending or ends up totally relying on it when her backs against the wall.

Sokka had the potential to be a bender, it was just never realized. According to the creators.

Dom Gray 路 May 13, 2017

Season 3 was the best for me because the villain was super badass!!

Matis 路 May 13, 2017

i'm so loving this ^^ Korra started it's gonna be awesome :3

Kevin Bartelen 路 May 13, 2017

Actually Nickelodeon ordered the first season and then all the rest at once after that. Although for some reason Nickelodeon started making things harder on the creators towards the end even though it was arguably at the height of it's popularity. Doesn't really effect the show but could be a reason for them to say no if Nick says they want a third one.

Noah Hoorn 路 May 15, 2017

Brike won't be doing a 3rd series as they have said, but it could be picked up. by someone else possibly as a prequel. There are thousands of past Avatars you could base it on at any point in time in the history of the world basically, so many possibilities. Maybe as a Netflix show if they bought the rights to it. Nick did effect some stuff on the show including some story laziness because of the surprises in how many episodes they were going to have, or if it was even getting picked up for a season 2. They didn't quite have the freedom to plan out a whole story arc through the series. It was still pretty awesome though, not on the level of Avatar, but still top tier for sure.

Culper 路 May 13, 2017

I got excited at the end of this video when they are talking about seeing other characters. Their reactions will be priceless, lol.

M
Mike C 路 May 13, 2017

Ive never fully seen korra but I dont think it is ever mentioned so its not a spoiler but I've always seen natural bending as being passed genetically some get the gene some don't. In the case of the avatar. I figured it as their homeland bending element is gained genetically and their other elements are gained through being so naturally spiritual somehow and can't be passed since most seemed to live out their lives in their home nation and in the last air bender you never seen a fire bender belonging to the earth or water nations which would be the case for all descendents of avatars.

looking forward to seeing there reactions to korra now i have something to see on Fridays

Greg Alan 路 May 13, 2017

Waiting for Arrow reaction is brutal, but if it is between a Korra reaction and Arrow, fuck it I choose Korra

J
Jjop017 路 May 13, 2017

So happy they decided to do Korra after all. It is fitting too. Around a year ago they started doing Avatar and now they are doing Korra. I loved both series. Korra wasn't perfect, but I felt a lot of it problems were because Nick didn't order it as a whole series at first and they couldn't sit out and plan as a whole like they did with Avatar. Even stil it was a great series.

Tina L 路 May 13, 2017

I agree with everything you said!

Arnold Kim 路 May 12, 2017

Love you guys at Blind Wave for posting this . By the way, you guys really need to check out the voice cast for this show,I was actually really really impressed by the big names they got. Got a BIG kick out of finding who voiced Tenzin.

K
Kai 路 May 12, 2017

Right so I've worked it out, and if Blind Wave keep to 1 vid a week, every week, including the 2 episodes we already have, we will completely finish Legend of Korra on April 28th 2018... It's gunna be a long road guys!

M
Minus 路 May 12, 2017

I'm okay with that. Better they take their time as opposed to getting burned out.

L
Lukas 路 May 12, 2017

kya and hakoda were both nonbenders and katara was a waterbender, so yes, two nonbenders can have a bending child. i would assume that it would be a rare thing though

J
Jake Rush 路 May 12, 2017

I was gonna comment about the Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, but someone beat me to it. All of their children are named after important people in their lives.

hdwarrior 路 May 12, 2017

That's the same thing I did pledged 5 bucks. Because I'm really looking forward to their reactions. I hoped they would do it on mondays too. I mean seriously blind wave are you guys really that busy?

T
TbcAlex 路 May 12, 2017

Yes, they have never been as busy as they are right now

K
Kimberly Contreras 路 May 12, 2017

I kinda related genetics of bending to that of Harry Potter. A witch or wizard can be born of two muggle parents, a muggle parent and a magical parent, or two magical parents. Also, just as a non-magical child can be born to two magical parents.

C
Craig Boulton 路 May 12, 2017

After I got done watching episode 1, I said "fuck it", and pledged 5 dollars for episode 2 early access.

Brandon K Buckhalter 路 May 12, 2017

I did too truthfully.

J
Justin.Kent 路 May 12, 2017

You see how Republic City came to be in The Promise comic.

S
Sky Knight 路 May 12, 2017

Cool fact: in a way, "Avatar" (atla) is a story about the Dalai Lama and his cycle of incarnation and quest for world peace - Aang is even named after one of them. :D Cooler fact: one of the incarnations of the Dalai Lama was "Tenzin Gyatso". Sound like some people we know? ;)

S
Skeletor 路 May 12, 2017

I thought the poll was to replace Avatar on Monday. So if this on Fridays wonder whats there gonna do on Mondays Slot.

T
TbcAlex 路 May 12, 2017

Maybe whatever wins the 12k poll

revy 路 May 12, 2017

Guess who voices Tenzin, it's J.K Simmons.

Valestra 路 May 12, 2017

Hey Blind Wave! So I wanted to put this out to clear the air. The series, both Avatar and Korra, never explicitly explains the choosing of the elements in a person. However in one of the many books marketed to kids for Avatar (book adaptation of Sozin's Comet), there was an exclusive interview with "Bryke" (Mike and Bryan the creators). One of the questions was, in short, if Aang and Katara had a kid, what would they be as benders? Taken from the book, Mike says, "[T]heir kids could be born a Waterbender, Airbender, or a nonbender. But they definitely would not have the ability to command all four. Only the Avatar can control all four elements." It is also stated in one of the Lost Scrolls of Air, the Air Nomads were the only nation to have every person be a bender unlike the other nations who had only a select few. The reason why was never explained. My guess is that it is more about the spiritual aspect more than the genetic, though that may still play a part.

Nick Lykins 路 May 12, 2017

The creators, Mike and Bryan, have said that they need a very long break from animation as it was extremely tiring and that they feel they have pushed the absolute limits in animation for TV and feel that maybe in a long while they can come back and do another series. They already have their own projects now with Mike having released a book and Bryan about to release a graphic novel I believe that is called thread worlds. Also, a good way to look at Korra compared to Avatar is that Avatar's main focus was on defeating the Firelord where as Korra's main focus is on her spiritual journey and growth. Both have that but Korra's is a lot more personal and is the main driving force behind the series.

KTok 路 May 12, 2017

I wanted to make this comment from the first ep since y'all were talking about it: The coolest part about them being in a more technologically advanced world is it pretty much reflects based on times of war. Before ATLA there was generally peace due to the avatar which stopped technological advancement. And now in the 70 years after a 100 year war it's like a renaissance period - a time of technological advancement. Hence, cars and microphones now being public/common tech.

Weird, I have no problem st all

J
JojoInSpace 路 May 12, 2017

I love this, because none of you have seen the show, but you still know the world so you can speculate a bunch. :D And that's great. I'm so happy you're enjoying the show, and Korra and Tenzin and all the new stuff that is being thrown at you. Can't wait until we get further in.

Raven McShan 路 May 12, 2017

I'm loving their theories about Aang and Katara's kids! Can't wait for the next ep!

Thilde 路 May 12, 2017

Oh my Lord some of you people are slow. Patreon is mostly for early access. Why would you not think to look on youtube for the first episode..

J
Jake Rush 路 May 12, 2017

First thing I did when I got the notification about Patreon was check YouTube. It was right there guys馃槕

PinoyAkoPH 路 May 12, 2017

Lol people are complaining that 2 is here and 1 is on YouTube! I'm just elated that episode 2 is here for me to watch!!!! Thank you, Blind Wave!!!

T
Tina L 路 May 12, 2017

Agreed. We get 2 episodes to watch today instead of 1! What a treat!

A
Alan 路 May 12, 2017

Because technically we should have gotten 1 first?. Either way was fine but i think releasing 1 first makes more sense. I think.

Thilde 路 May 12, 2017

FFS this is early access, how hard is it to understand?
