apparently there is an online leaked version out there tho, low quality.

Awww I know my thread was 2 years old; but it was good. Ah well.

Fav part/Rage part all happened with in a few secs.

Grandma what happened to Zuko's mom?  *Holy Crap! Major loose end* squee

Overall really good start to series. Animation was very much improved over the last series.

Yeah, but there's only three episodes so far. They're awesome episodes, don't get me wrong, but I hope you've diversified your portfolio.

I thought Amon's big reveal would be that he was related to one of Team Avatar. His real reveal was sooooo much better.

Spoilers ahead, so be aware of that.

When Aang took away Ozai's bending he had his hands on the head and the heart, while Amon only puts his hand on the head. Since he's utilizing chi blocking it may be a sort of bastardized form of energy bending; it takes away the bending away, but it may not be as permanent like what Galaxy Crisis says.

It may also be that Amon was actually bestowed the power by the spirits. Think about it. The world has entered an age where the supernatural is seen more as legend and folk tales than something that's actually real and accessible. Spirits are believed in less and less in the face of rapidly escalating technology and the Avatar, the physical manifestation of the link to them, hasn't been in contact for over 17 years. It's understandable that there would be discontent among at least a fraction of the spirit world.

It's conjecture, but I think it would be really incredible to see that not only is there discord in the physical realm but in the spiritual realm as well. It's been stated already that it's a problem that Korra hasn't tapped into it, so I want to see just how big of a problem.

In a last bit, I'm really happy that Tenzin believed Korra about Amon's ability right away instead of brushing her off. The writers are doing a great job of keeping the story moving.

Simple misinterpretation my good man.

'-but it may not be as permanent, like what Galaxy Crisis said.' I was saying that I agree with your assessment that Amon maybe isn't doing it right. *comma added for clarity.

so, prediction time!!!  i'm guessing battle with amon will end with korra discovering her own spirit bending powers.  with two spirit benders it'll be like the light show at the end of the first series with korra winning.  course, instead of taking away bending, she'll make him an airbender.  after that, she'll start giving airbending out to the homeless people in the park and stuff, the people closest to already being nomads, who tenzen will then lead to the air temples to finally return balance between the 4 elements.

i just saw episode 5, that was a lame episode.
i think this korra avatar is more for girl viewers. Who cares about love blablabla

yes, because there were no romantic sub-plots in the original avatar

Yes but this episode was a throw away episode. Every thing in this story could have been in the B plot in two good episodes dealing with Anon.

maybe, but probably not as well, especially with the bending tournament and all.  and i was more getting at soul's comment on how this avatar is more for girls just because of one romantic themed episode.

Gotta say... whoever's doing the soundtrack for this series is doing a damn good job.

That just reminds me. If another movie producer even tries to touch this series, they better keep it original... what a fail the previous one was =[

I laughed so hard when the announcer said "I am currently wetting my pants."

Yeah I nearly wet my own pants when he said that. Such a professional deserves praise.

As did I.

It is surely a rare thing to find one as dedicated to one's job, as that commentator.

I wonder if that is Toph at the end, the person does seem blind but it's hard to tell. That would probably make Tarrlok older then he seems tho. It is also quite likely that he is Amon, the boss of the equalist being a bender wouldn't be very surprising.

I think Amon is actually Tarrlok's father, and he learned how to take bending away from Aang trying to do it on him (and for some reason, failing). The reason he can resist bloodbending is due to his own ability to bloodbend, which he uses to negate Tarrlok's bending.
