nekare at 07:27pm on 23/06/2012 under legend of korraGuys, I see your criticisms and I acknowledge them, and I certainly don't think this was a flawless episode(s), but I loved it. I seriously, seriously loved it, I cried a bit and mostly I just love Korra so much that I just want her to be forever happy.
In conclusion: KORRA. ♥
ETA: Adding my comments tolizbee:It's bothering me a bit that people are saying that Korra didn't earn to get her bending back so easily, that Aang went through so much to become a full fledged avatar. And it's like - It's Aang, would people really think he would want her to suffer for years? Of course he would help her, (his own soul at that) if he could find a chance. That's just the kind of person Aang is.
And in any case - Korra found her airbending to help someone in need. In my books, that's clearly earning to be a complete avatar.

(My main criticism's with the pacing. One more episode to resolve all that, and I think the other issues would have smoothed themselves out.)
I'm actually reluctant to make my squee post, because I don't want it to be harshed. I've already seen one person say the ending was a nihilistic dystopia, but then, she said the same thing about my own fic last year, so I'm in good company.

But yeah, another or a couple of episodes more would've done a lot of good. Or just split it over two seasons, but that was Nick's fault, not the writers.
Tumblr made me feel vaguely ashamed of my squee, which just isn't on!

(That's also in contrast to Roku, who spent a few months sort of lurking and not telling the whole story, too.)

I've decided not to look at Tumblr at all. I stole a glance just after the finale aired, and read that it was misogynistic and problematic, and then I decided I'd had enough.
