This season is kind of really good. I just watched some of my favorite AtLA episodes (they hold up) and these are up there. Stick the landing and crush season 4 and I'll put Korra up there with with AtLA da GOAT.
 
its good but its not going to stay with me tbh

i find myself caring less and less as the episodes go on. its still missing a lot to make it great.
 
So the queen's plot presence is gone now that she's been killed sent to the shadow realm after losing a children's card game. Are we focusing on the Red Lotus for the rest of the series?

Yeah this. ATLA will be something I'll recommend to everyone if they ever feel like watching anime/cartoons.

With Korra I always have to do two things:

1. Ask if they've seen ATLA. If not I point them there first.
2. Need to say it with a 'but'. aka " it's decent but there are better shows out there to watch first"
 
Hey new to this OT, hell new to off topic community.

But yea huge fan of avatar, and got to say 3rd season really shaping up to be really good. Wasn't a big fan of second and didn't like the pacing of the first. 3rd season seems to be best in both those regards only complaint i have is that its ending soon :(

Amazon sure does love to put the episodes out really early, third time now they've put them up hours before Nick is supposed to put them up
Wonder if Nick will put the episode up early again in response to Amazons early release?
Amazon episode link by the way
 
HOLY SHIT THAT WAS AMAZING!!!


Seeing Aang's kids take on the Red Lotus was awesome.

Loved that Tenzin was better than Zaheer, only having trouble when the rest of the Red Lotus came to Zaheer's aid. Was seriously worried for Tenzin though near the end, thought Zaheer was gonna pull anther asphyxiation death.

Kya and Bumi were awesome too, they lost but still put up a great fight.

Kai was also cool during this fight.

Also, Iroh was back
 
I gave in, bought the episode on Amazon (good job Nick and goodbye sleep)

Amazing.

There's only one thing you need to know:

Tenzin is the boss. Finally he proves himself worthy of the title of airbending master.

And Zaheer's message to Korra was t
hat he would wipe out the airbenders if she doesn't turn herself in.

Aang's children fight the Red Lotus, but P'Li has the upper hand, acting as a sniper from an airship. Kai manages to escape.

Here are the rest of my reactions:

Korra tells Zuko about Iroh still being alive in the Spirit World. Zuko is shocked "Wait, you saw my uncle?!"


Ba Sing Se is crumbling, everywhere.

Lol, even the Queen's guards join the looters. Mako and Bolin commandeer the airship, like in the clip. Bolin tries to fly it, gets the hang of it.

Ba Sing Se "is falling to pieces", and Mako and Bolin are fighting over who flies it best. They try to rescue their family and grandma, but grandma refuses to flee, saying its her home. But Bolin takes her grandma anyway by force, and the rest of the family (causins included) leave on the airship.

Ba Sing Se turns to hell just as they leave. The entire family heads to the Si Wong Desert in search of Korra, as Mako and Bolin are still trying to get to her and deliver the message. They find the airship and tracks leading to the Misty Palms Oasis.

They reunite with Korra.

They go back to Zoufu and try to radio the Northern Air Temple for help.
 
nick.com pls. Those impressions make me die in anticipation.

Edit: since when does neogaf hotlink websites automatically? I didn't use a url tag.

this is a joke?
 
Pretty Good episode
The fight scenes were fantastic in this episode and it sure got tense in the second half of the episode
Loved how will finally got to see two Master Air Benders going off at each other, Tenzin finally showing off how badass he can be. It looked he would have beaten Zaheer if the other Red Lotus members hadn’t come to save him at the end
Poor Tenzin not looking so good at the end there
Poor Bumi and Kya didn’t stand a chance especially Bumi they still put up a great fight though
Nice to see Iroh back and finally Zuko finds out about iroh being in the spirit world, Wonder if Zuko will try and visit him
Ba Sing Se sure fell to anarchy pretty fast. The city was not looking so good as Bolin and mako were leaving it, Going to be interesting what sort of impact this has on the avatar world
Bolin’s grandmother Yin knows who the best girl in the show is, loved Asami’s reaction

Mako and Bolin's grandmother bah gawd

She sure loves to make things awkward for the gang
 
Goddamn that episode!

Tenzin was winning against Zaheer until Zaheer got backup. I never thought we'd see such a great airbending fight!
 
So reading the spoilers I'm glad to hear that my predictions over
Tenzin being the greatest airbender currently around
are holding true because it'd be bullshit if
zaheer were to beat him. Even if he is talented he doesn't have years of training
 
Zaheer's fighting style (based on The Ultimatum episode)

Zeheer fights and moves exactly like a gymnast/acrobatics. This would explain his competence with airbending.

However,

against Tenzin, who actually moves like an airbending master, Zaheer's movements looks childish in comparison. I thought they did an amazing job showing how Tenzin is super light on his feet whilst airbending and dodging Zaheer's attacks whereas Zaheer does flips and shit but they don't really help him avoid attacks.

Yeah,
Tenzin fought with grace, Zaheer was all about flashy moves and he was easily outclassed

But
it got really rough in the end, I was scared they were gonna kill him


Anyway, this episode didn't have a full guru Laghima quote that leaked two days ago which probably means that the leaker guy has episodes 12 and/or 13.
 
Finally, Tenzin going beast mode. Great episode. This season has been spectacular so far, I've really enjoyed it. Some really great bending.
 
Damn that was a great battle

Ghazan definitely is nowhere near as skilled as Toph, she would have beat Bumi in seconds, he just has that OP lava bending.

Love that they showed how a real master airbender fights vs Zaheer who just uses his natural acrobatics to get by.

Would have liked to see Jinora prove why she can be considered a master airbender.

This season needed an episode that was about developing the RL team, I really do hope they continue on to season 4.
 
Damn Tenzin putting a real good fight. I'll be sad if he dies but I will not be surprised he does.

Doubt he is dead more knocked out to use as bait for Korra but then again the show has been doing some stuff I never expected it would do (Earth queens brutal death etc)
Zaheer still wants Korra so killing Tenzin doesn't really help him as of right now
Still he did put up a great fight defending his family and the new airbenders

I was expecting Zaheer to suffocate him after Tenzin said that he won't stop as long he was breathing.

I'd imagine it would be really hard to suffocate a bender during a fight. Especially an airbender who can just push himself up and out of the way.

In order to suffocate an airbender, I'd imagine Zaheer would need Gazan to hold Tenzin down and into the ground using earthbending. But even then, master airbenders can fight with their breathe! Aang would go flying 50 feet into the air whenever he sneeze!
 
Great episode, maybe the best fighting animation all season.

It's nice to see a few old faces.

The shots of a burning Ba Sing Se were catastrophically beautiful. Really great art all around - the setting of Team Entropy v Aang's kids was fantastic as well.

Meelo knows who the boss is.
 
Great episode

Combustion ladies long range sniping was extremely smart but completely screwed over any chance Tenzin ever had of winning that fight.

Every time she attacked it was like nooo! Tenzin showed off that air bending master that I always loved from Korra's. All in all a great season so far.

Yeah really loved the scenes in Ba Sing Se as it really shows off the scope of Zaheer's actions/impacts on the world
Going to take a while for Ba Sing Se to get back to normal if this episode was any indication


I wonder how the other nations are taking this news about Ba Sing Se
 
Whilst I was glad Tenzin showed what a real master can do, I actually thought Kya should have been able to take on armless.

I mean, Tenzin became a master after learning from Aang, but she would have had Katara to learn from. Not to mention we saw here take on Zaheer and go toe to toe with him.

It's probably just that I really hate that stupid armless design.
 
Toph will show up. Shield up with a rock tomb, dummy the lava bender, and basically turtle and murder the rest from within her rock tomb.

Based Toph. I believe.

OR

Mako and Bolin's grandmother is Toph.
