I hated the final episodes and pretty much the whole final season. My hatred has nothing to do with the alleged "bisexual theory" (mostly because I think it was just two girls being close and good friends to one another in a 'best friend' kind of way and I think the theory is wrong). The first three seasons of this show were straight up amazing.

Season 1 - Instead of just another crazy powerful bender (like the whole first show was based on) this one had to do with an anti-bender nemesis. Amazing and a great twist!

Season 2 - This one had to do with a crazy guy trying to fuse with the ANTI Avatar spirit. This was even more amazing than the first season.

Season 3 - A group rises up in order to take out all governments everywhere! Not quite as awesome as season 2 or 1, but still pretty awesome!

Season 4 - A crazy powerful bender lady tries to take over the world. Lame. That's what The Last Airbender was for 4 seasons and I didn't need to see that again. Not to mention there was just too much focus on machines in this season. Hated this season except for a few bright spots. So disappointed.

1) It resolved the issue of Kuvira not being a credible threat in several degrees, both in terms of just how unstoppable the weapon was, and in how good of a fight she put up at the end.

2) Did anyone think there were deliberate homages to Shingeki No Kyojin? A few of the rooftop running scenes gave me distinct flashbacks, while "aim for the back of the neck" could easily have been a coincidence.

3) Meelo crosses the usefulness threshold, just as Ikki did earlier this season. Nobody gets left out!

4) Prince Wu goes an interesting direction, though in terms of how it would work in real-world politics, it would take a generation to set up a working republic. He'd likely be king for a good 20 years or so, just before institutions were established.

5) Odd that Bataar Jr seems to be forgiven more easily than Kuvira. Blood thicker than water?

6) The spirits, however, seem to get away with it. Like showing up after its all over is enough of a gesture? If they had repaired the city, or something, that would be one thing. Spirits be spirits, i guess.

7) I was *so* waiting for Varrick to subvert expectations when he proposed, like a promotion to "official assistant" or something. Or for him to faux-subvert expectations just to yank Zhu Li's chain a little.

8) CANON, BITCHES. KORRASAMI WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO- OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

She's the Avatar. She can bend them all xD

I would say season 3 was tops, due to the more unique dynamics. Kuvira was a dull villain up until the Colossus entered the picture, and one who would have lost weeks before had Korra not been suffering from power incontinence.

That said, she was a better villain than Unalaq, who reeks of wasted potential. She fits Amon better, being a more realistic villain that delves into a fairly realistic line of earthly political extremism (not Nazis, folks. She's Jiang Jieshi, full stop), against Amon's more Communist overtones or Zaheer's radical anarchism.

You're not feeling me on this. My inner Yuri fanboy wants to fly to the moon and do low-G cartwheels.

I mean, this wasn't even really a ship of mine. I followed the idea, like i imagine a lot of the fandom did, as an joke "third option" between Makorra and Maasami. Then you started to see hints and bits of it in the third season, then this season with the letters...

By this season, the reason i thought it wouldn't happen was because Nick wouldn't have the chutzpah.

but but

Its Happening!

I haven't seen the finale yet, but I'm tagging this thread for when I have!

I'm a bit confused by the ending...but overall, it was a good season.

That was real?! MMMHH nice.
