3>1>4>2.
I think Korra had better moments, but I probably enjoyed ATLA more as a whole. Wasnt expecting Korra and Asami to end up together, seemed kind of shoehorned in there. All of the big bads were pretty cool in their own right. Not sure who my favorite was. Aman or Zaheer most likely. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I liked Zaheer the most because he put such an unexpected twist on airbending. He took it to a darker place than I ever thought airbending would go.

seemed kind of shoehorned in there.Yeah, the fact that heteronormativity was still a thing in animation back then can be thanked for that. They were dropping big hints starting in Season 3, but to someone not expecting it, you can write it off as "they're good friends". --- CyricZ ... Copied to Clipboard!

Keep in mind Nick told them
do one season ok do one more season ok do 2 more seasons which is why S3 & S4 had more of an over arching story. they also cut the budget down mid way which is why we probably lost some of the characters since voice actor costs would go up and we even got a clip episode in s4 ...

I love the parallels between the S3 final confrontation w/ enraged korra and zaheer, and the final confrontation w/ aang and ozai. But with flipped roles. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Earth bending might be able to bend the minerals like iron and whatnot out of your body and kill you. Fire bending might be the only one where they can't manipulate something inside your body.

The swamp people in TLA were water benders. They say it in the episode.

Wasnt expecting Korra and Asami to end up together, seemed kind of shoehorned in there. It kinda was until my wife pointed out that it could simply be a start of a relationship, which I think is kind of a crappy way to end the series on (would greatly prefer to see more on their romance). ssj3vegeta2 posted... did da first avatar mini story not save it? i remember dat being hella cool That was the only decent part of season 2, otherwise yeah it was probably the worst arc in the whole series. --- DI MOLTO! ...

The bending in TLA was in general more bombastic and destructive compared to TLK's more reserved bending. Which makes sense. TLA's world has been at war for 100 years. The benders were actively training for open combat. TLK's world had been at peace for decades. If people were bending for combat they were either regulated professional fighters, cops/criminals or soldiers during peacetime. --- *Gheb is my other account* ... Copied to Clipboard!

Aang had more technique.
Korra relied on overwhelming force to win. Even then, she constantly lost to benders with actual skill. Aang can seal bending, but Korra can metal bend and is probably physically more athletic.
