Book One: Air follows seventeen-year-old Korra from the Southern Water Tribe, and the successor of Avatar Aang from the preceding series Avatar: The Last Airbender, as she travels to the metropolis of Republic City to learn airbending and faces an anti-bender revolutionary group, the "Equalists", led by the masked Amon. Book One: Air aired from April 14 to Jon the Nickelodeon channel in the U.S., and is broadcast in other countries beginning in June 2012.
Consisting of twelve episodes (called "chapters"), it was initially intended to be a stand-alone miniseries before the series was expanded to four seasons ("books") and fifty-two episodes ("chapters") total.
animated TV series The Legend of Korra created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. Book One: Air is the first season of the U.S. I also love Tenzin's character arc with his family as well as Jinora's bigger roe but this season is just a let down.Avatar Korra fights to keep Republic City safe from the evil forces of both the physical and spiritual worlds. She yells at everyone and thinks she knows best and it doesn't resemble the more mature character at the end of season 1 and Unalaq is such a boring, generic villain and the show just forgets about him in episodes 5-8 and 11 and the season ends in a generic end of the world situation with plot convenience and none of the characters learn anything.ĭespite that, the score and animation is just as good as ever, the action scenes are an improvement over season 1, Varrick is such a well-written character, the first 4 episodes set up an interesting conflict, it's creative, the story of Avatar Wan is really interesting and I love the idea of focusing on spirits as it wasn't explored much in the original series. Korra as well is so unlikeable this season. Then episode 7 and 8 randomly just throws us this new threat and we get a backstory on the first avatar but there's no build up to it and it's just an end of the world situation with no thematic depth. Everything in Republic City serves no purpose to the plot and unlike Avatar, it doesn't develop the characters at all and the worst part is we get 3 whole episodes dedicated to it in episodes 5, 8 and 11. The conflict is not seen until episode 11 where it's just resolved in one fight scene. It starts off well with episodes 1-4 exploring the conflict of the northern and southernnwater tribe and Korra learning spiritual training but after episode 4 it goes downhill. The biggest issue with season 2 is its structure and pacing. A huge disappointment after the solid start that was season 1 and by far the worst season of Korra.
