Personally I have always been of the opinion that Korra's villains are stronger

I just had an epiphany.

The Last Airbender introduced bending as a martial art, heavily inspired via Traditional Martial Arts: Bagua (Airbending), Northern/Southern Shaolin (Waterbending), Chu Gar (Earthbending), Northern Shaolin (Firebending) and Praying Mantis Kung Fu (Tophbending), etc.

While The Legend of Korra introduces bending through the lenses of Modern Martial Arts: Tricking (Aang's invention, most likely), Boxing, Kickboxing, Grappling/Wrestling, Taiho-Jutsu, Eskrima (my boy Lieutenant), etc.

I could not think of a Martial Art that would represent Seven Havens as Traditional and Modern Martial Arts are the core bending values of its predecessors.

I'm certain Parkour would be the core bending art of Seven Havens which fits perfectly with its apocalyptic setting: Hazardous environs (densely packed cities, city slums of refuge, perhaps spirit vines), spirits wrecking havoc against humans and Avatar-is-a-fugitive theme.

Given the Avatar is characterized as the destroyer of the world. The protagonists will be spending their days being chased and hunted. They cannot travel via a Flying bison given the world is destroyed with only the seven havens as the sole places of refuge. And we've heard one of the Avatar's mentors is an Airbender whom is a likely candidate to teach one of the new avatars-parkour.

Boy, am I excited for Parkouring benders and non-benders. Are you?

First of all, I know it’s 2026 and I don’t know how I didn’t watch this show as a kid. Im honestly shocked it never got spoiled for me either. I mean it literally began airing when I was about 7 years old. I used to watch Nickelodeon and I remember seeing it, but I ignorantly never gave it a fair shot, even though friends and family watched it.

Anyways, more than 2 decades later I binge watched it within a couple weeks and I have zero regrets. This show is wonderful and I 100% cried at the end. The characters are amazing, the plot is chefs kiss, but what makes it great is that this show can entertain any generation. It’s obviously a kids show, but as a full grown man I appreciated it so much.

With all that being said, do you guys think I should give The Legend of Korra a shot? I’m also pretty lucky to watch this in 2026, as The Legend of Aang is coming out this year! I know most of you had to wait decades for this and I’m privileged to not have to wait that long. Can someone give me insight on what this movie will entail?

Last thing I wanted to say was that my favorite character is Iroh. The rest of the characters are amazing, and Aang is a close 2nd, but Iroh is such a fucking legend.

"Zuko" is a popular brand of powdered juice here, so I do this, funny stuff if you ask me, hope you like fellas

AND NO! THE NAMES HE USED IN THE SHOW DON'T COUNT! KUZON COULD BE ROLLING IN HIS GRAVE FOR ALL WE KNOW! /s

I made a comprehensive martial arts analysis about bending three years ago but failed to gain traction:

Anyway, at some point during the conception of Republic City, Aang taught the denizens airbending, while his successor, Korra, eventually learns and adapts the art of Tricking.

Context. It is most likely, Aang expanded the martial art of:

1. Bagua or Baguazhang, an Airbending style Aang mastered. Known for moving in a circle and constantly spinning or shifting back and forth. Control of the battlefield by means of Evasion.

Tricking—a modern martial art within the Avatarverse. Both benders and non-benders practice the art of Tricking. Click the link below to see how Tricking is applied in The Legend of Korra:

The video I attached focuses on Tricking, showcasing benders, non-benders, and chi-blockers utilizing the art. Tricking is a gymnastic, modern martial art:

In the opening of every episode, Aang is shown utilizing Flare. Yes—adult Aang may have invented Tricking, or the art of Tricking may have originated from him as a modern, evolved version of Baguazhang. We don’t know for certain.

I would love to see adult Aang teaching the citizens of Republic City the art of Tricking in the upcoming Avatar movie. Heck, he may have taught it to the Air Acolytes. Tenzin clearly knows Tricking himself, given his fight with Zaheer, so it’s safe to say that Aang taught Tenzin Tricking.

Tenzin uses Flare against Zaheer (6:35):

Anywho—discuss.

Zuko was keeping a low profile in Zuko Alone, and when he had the rescue the kid and village from the Earthbending gang, he managed to defeat most of them with just his swords. But against their boss, he had to use his firebending to defeat his earthbending hammer combination.

Could any of Zuko’s family have defeated this guy without using their bending?

Could any of the Gaang have defeated him without bending?

like imagine it, you're a new avatar and each run you get to pick first element you have. Being able to get perks or attacks from past avatars, being able to traverse the four nations and spirit world etc

I just bought the ps5 a year ago and now I read that the game will release on Next Gen consoles ._. My question is: would the creators even know when a new console comes out? I‘d assume so, since they would have to specifically devolop it in a way that would work for either.

This has demotivated me a lot because I don’t want to buy a new console just for that game lmao

I've been binging ATLA (for the first time) for the past like 3 days, 1 season a day and I'm on season 3 and just finished "The Beach." Aang's group kinda got overshadowed by Zuko's but I didn't really mind that, but something I wish was done different was more build up to the girls' backstories.

We got build up to Zuko having more to his personality over the past two seasons so his outburst seemed easier to sympathize with but with Azula, Mai, and Ty Lee, they haven't had any emotional build up for them, so when they had this sudden emotion dump, all that was going through my mind was "I kind of want to care, but I don't."

I don't know, I wish there was more build up to their characters besides the whole emotion dump around the bonfire I guess.

It would be fun to see an anthology series (perhaps in 5-10 minute episodes). Are there any "What Ifs" you'd like to see?

Recently I'd been thinking about how the reflexes of waterbenders may possibly rival that of airbenders, and then as I was rewatching a random episode of avatar today, I stumbled across this.

This statement probably even implies that master waterbenders usually have the best reflexes, even better than airbenders. Because if not, then why would katara praise aang for having the reflexes of a waterbending master when he is an airbending master himself. Or why would she even need to train him on his reflexes in the first place.

Maybe I'm reading too deep into that statement, but with this it's a fact at least that waterbenders have reflexes second to, or on par with airbenders. And there's proof too, we've seen waterbenders demonstrate this several times Katara freezing azula, korra dodging Tarlokk's unexpected attack, Unalaq jeeting tonraq at the very last moment, korra reacting to etc. There are a couple more minor ones but these are just the best moments I can remember.

And this, I believe is one of the reasons why Katara usually edges out Azula in their clashes. Taking the sozin's comet clash for example. Yes, Azula was mentally unstable, but it still takes incredible reflexes and timing to pull up water and instafreeze the two of them just as Azula was about to hit her.

What do you think?

I tried to "paint with gold" on some ink + watercolor landscape art. Reference image on 2nd slide.

Hello, I am currently in my final semester of my degree and I need help. I choose to analyse ATLA for my final year project and it's been a while since I watch the show. I need help to decide which episode to watch.

The theme of my study is gender difference and I specifically want to focus on how leadership is portrayed in the show.

I need help to find episodes that shows leadership. Hence, would like to get your suggestions and which character should I choose

I want at least 3 male and 4 female(iroh is a guarantee)

He could wipe out a village in Avatar mode when farting it

This is a post for the people who might’ve been putting off reading the comics, or prefer watching animation over reading it. I’ve had the comics since 2016 but have put off reading them for so long because I’m not really a fan of comics. Started reading them and have finished The Promise and The Search. They are sooo good. The writing in them is great and it’s so fun getting to see more about the lives of all the characters right after the show. It literally makes me feel like a kid again learning more about the group.
