Title: The Legend of Korra.
Post by: Muffin on April 25, 2012, 02:14:28 AM
So, anybody else watching this?
I just finished watching the third ep, and I think the story's getting pretty awesome.

I know! I just saw the third episode myself, it's really great.

Wow, the fourth episode was great, 'specially at the end.
And really, really hate Tarrlock.

Finally! A thread about this awesome show!

Anyways, yeah, the 4th episode was great! I can honestly say that the first 4 eps of Korra are WAY better and more suspenseful than the first 4 eps of Aang.

I've heard of this anime for some time now, but I'm quite picky about my anime. Unless they are really gripping on the first few episodes, I won't bother.
So like, is it really worth watching?

This show is pretty much worth watching, but I recommend watching the original series in order to get the full effect~

Totally worth watching, but as Smashy said, you won't get the full experience without watching the original series.

Though the style is somewhat based on the Japanese anime style, this show is made by Americans. (go figure)
And yes, it is REALLY worth watching ONLY if you watched the original series.

Well, shit. The latest episode ("And the winner is...") was spectacularly mind-blowing. The fights! The action! The comedy! The suspense! Seriously, this show is getting better and better with each episode.

Ever since avatar finished and I saw this show announced, I was thinking "they killed another show with some fucking random shit." After actually watching the show, I proved myself wrong. This show is amazing!

I don't think it will be able to match the epic backstories and main story of the previous part though.

Season 1 is ending next week, with a doozy of a finale.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY don't like Zuko's son's (or possibly grandson) voice! I mean come on! I know he's supposed to be related to Zuko, but can't they at least pick a new VA for him? It's really weird and disorienting hearing Zuko's voice come out of that character's face!

Post by: Toffee on June 17, 2012, 06:58:19 AM
You shouldn't give up on the series because of one bad movie. I mean, is Dragonball any less awesomer even after you saw that pile of horse crap they called "dragonball movie"?

They just confirmed that the second season is gonna be called "Book 2: Spirit"
I TOTALLY CALLED THAT.

Oh, and season two isn't gonna be the last season.
THERE'S GONNA BE TWO MORE AFTER IT.
I just hope that it doesn't get stale. o-o

I watched it on-air, but I missed a good 5 minutes of it while using the bathroom during commercial. Stupid Nickelodeon needs to make all their commercial breaks same time. Not some 30 seconds and others 5 minutes l-_-l

So yeah, I am too waiting for it online

Started watching this right after I finished A:TLA. Pretty good, actually. Only thing I felt weak was its jazz influenced soundtrack as opposed to the more "raw" music in the previous one (Still beautiful though). Overall animation is better but there were some action scenes were it felt seriously underproduced. You could literally count the frames during Korra's first encounter with those chi blockers. Writing seems a lot better as well (so far).

So yeah, the title for book 3 will be "Change" and it supposedly details how Korra and the rest of the world will deal with the drastic shift that happened in the Book 2 finale.

GET HYPED Y'ALL.

Post by: Starrie on June 23, 2014, 01:02:28 AM
So after being a /tad/ let down on season two's finale, I'm hyped as heck for season three. Its coming out this friday with three new episodes! AAAAAAA! Considering how the english trailer basically showed us a lot of fangasmining moments, I believe its high time that I throw away my summer vacation by dedicating most of my time on season three. It seems promising.

Also Bumi best character master race. Amirite????????
Title: Re: The Legend of Korra.
Post by: Muffin on June 23, 2014, 02:00:25 AM
Hm, I'm not as hyped as I should be but that's probably because of the ending to season 2. I hope this season'll be a good one.


And three episodes in one day? Wow. I wonder if they'll do like last season and release the last 4 episodes in one day. Doubt it.
Title: Re: The Legend of Korra.
Post by: Starrie on June 23, 2014, 03:00:46 AM
It was initially two [one hour special, basically] but Based Mike and Brian along with nick are taking a break on July 4th so that means no Korra next week. So I guess they coupled that with the debut day. Though...I did somewhat see tidbits of the plot and my god its just brilliant. It may very well be the best season yet.

And yeah I agree....as always, theres always one season that kind of cripples the hype. Unfortunately it was the second season that was riddled with plot-heavy points. I kinda put most of the blame on the love triangle and the one dimensional villain.
Title: Re: The Legend of Korra.
Post by: Swagmaster on June 23, 2014, 06:12:52 AM
I liked season 2 personally. Ending was not as good as it could've been, but still fairly enjoyable. I'm not too hyped on Season 3, but that's not because I don't care, it's because I don't want to watch commercials and raise expectations etc. for myself so I can go in not knowing too much about what it is. I've only watched one commercial and I don't even remember what it said lol
Title: Re: The Legend of Korra.
Post by: Kiss x Miz on June 23, 2014, 08:50:29 AM
It's good, but I still prefer Aang's story. It has a better feel to it.

Let's see what this season brings.
