You're making me hate Kuvira in the same way the Asami fans make me not like her as much.

I doubt there would be a fight, Suyin's ambush will fail, Kuvira will then be like "See? Avatar, I'm all about reason and peace but Suyin attacked me first!" Then Korra would mutter something and leave.

I want to see her put Suyin through a wall. Though to be on the real I can see the assassination attempt making her go ballistic. She's never really tried to physically hurt Su. Even during the meeting in the last episode she never really tried to hurt her or even in the hotel room in episode three. They made mean faces at each other yes, but Kuvira never really once tried to intimidate her the way she did with Bolin or the governor in Yi. I can honestly see Kuvira flipping out over it.
I'm sure the fight will happen at the very end of the episode and it'll cut to credits.
Mission accomplished.
Mission accomplished.

I hope Kuvira takes off her mask. And it was Dio the whole time.
I hope not they've already delayed it enough.
Ha but yeah i'm kinda expecting that Korra fighting Kuvira will only be done as a distraction tactic whilst Opal and the airbending siblings attempt to evacuate Zaofu before Kuvira takes over it.
Still looking forward to hearing those drums again.

"The Avatar system is extremely complex. The way you thought it worked is not how it actually works. So yeah, write reasons as to why this is possible and we'll make it canon"

It's a killer theme.
Watch it all be build up again..and then it cuts off when they are about to throw down. Oh my god. I would die. This season has already been slow enough. Bricks will be shat if this happens. Tears will be flowing. The sea of salt will be flowing. High tide baby. Dat ocean sweet sweet ocean of salt.
How can you not like Asami? SMH
Ha you're really lusting for tears and drama aren't you Azula.
I live for the salt.

What if season 4 ended up sucking?
Sure is possible. Would be a shit way to end the series. Basically, half the show would have been shit. And the ending would have been awful. Would really ruin the Korra legacy. Whereas if this season ends up being great, and they nail the ending, I think it makes the series a little bit easier to look back on. Season 1 being mostly good but flawed. Season 2 being awful, but at least having Origins + a sort of decent second half. Season 3 being close to ATLA levels. And Book 4 being a really good ending an all around season.
It would change perception of the show.
My fear is actually, that the ending is just boring. That this season isn't awful or bad, that it's just kind of vanilla and safe. And the ending doesn't take chances. So we get this limp/dud season where everyone's kind of like "eh". I guess? lol That would be worse than Book 2 bad season IMO

I know this isn't Jeremy Zuckerman music, but the percussion work is awesome in this. It's...well different, but hopefully this should tide somebody over waiting for epic drums.

I'm starting to think Toa is a chat bot and his two conversation topics are "Kuvira is amazing" and "Season 2 finale is amazing" as he installs a virus in the background.
I'm starting to feel that Kuvira is kind of a weak villain. Especially as a final boss/conflict. I really hope I'm wrong and she turns out to be awesome. Even if, just on an entertainment level.

I know this isn't very important to that many people but they are showing episodes of book 3 on Nicktoons weekdays at 8am EST. On Nov 8 they will show the first episode that was web exclusive (The Stakeout Episode). If everything follows they'll show the rest the season as each day passes. So, it looks like Korra is back on tv but not in the capacity some of us hoped for.
It's not cool to air people's evil plots like that.

ATLA's final villain was the 'always the final threat end boss' villain of Fire Hitler. All Kuvira has done so far is gotten the earth nation under her power. Unless the nuke aspect of the story ends up being a big part and she starts nuking nations and becomes basically Earth Stalin I don't see her being that big of a villain.

I got it. Kuvira will end up not getting Zaofu, and she goes crazy. Some stuff happens after, then come endgame she launches a spirit nuke on all of the Earth kingdom and Korra does some avatar state s*** to stop it.
It's easy to go back and fill in history after the fact.

Aang had a giant fight. He just didn't have a giant enemy.

EVEN MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY BOUGHT IT
Aang used the water spirit to become that size. He didn't actually bend his spirit to become a huge blue spirit and look stupid/clunky doing it.

I didn't know we were limiting the matter to how he became giant. What do you mean it wasn't stupid/clunky though? I thought is was dumb in Korra and dumb in ATLA.

I wouldn't mind if she threatened to nuke Korra's hometown.

OHHHHH THAT NEEEDS TO HAPPEN imagining that moment gave me chills

Especially since Naga is still there.
Naga is in Republic City. She came off the boat with Tonraq at the end of episode 1.
JadedWriter
Member
Oh, Ok, I honestly thought she went back with Tonraq. So I guess both Pabu and Naga are at the air temple then.
Korra looked really blocky and clunky. Like a big giant rusty robot. Her being a big giant blue spirit and shooting lasers out her chest looked ridiculously stupid. Aang becoming a giant made more sense, as it's design was based on the Water spirit god becoming a big thing from the ocean, which itself was big. Aang was just a vessel within the Water spirit. So it looked IMO a lot better, and how it moved and fought was cooler.
So I don't really think the two situations compare. Korra quite literally became a big fuckin giant Spirit and looked really dumb. I will never get those that liked the Kaiju fight, or thought it was cool. To me, it's probably the worst moment in the entire Avatar world (well, not as bad as the great divide, or Aang throwing away Sokka and Katara's letter). I just mean visually, it was so stupid. It was kind of like, the writers going too far with the spirit/bending stuff.

I agree that Aang big mode made more sense, but his rampage was really boring for me just because it was basically a big giant thrashing on a bunch of small people.
Korra fighting a giant the same size at least gave the fight better choreography and was slightly more fun to watch.

Aang's "fight" was 1000 times better done than Korra's. In fact the spirit conflict in these comics is better than all of season 2's.

She looked like a giant translucent smurf.
Nah. Seeing lots and lots of anime, that just looked silly. It lacked a lot of impact, since the baywater and telling us the size was the only visible indicator of strength and size.
A badass smurf.
I can't say. Nothing much to compare it to besides maybe, Power Rangers.

I like seeing them grown up with kids though. A full fledged part 3 is gonna happen in some shape or form, just wait.
