One Change Makes Legend of Korra Season 1 PERFECT

The Legend of Korra Season 1 is Amazing. I love what they did with the introduction of Korra and the plot of The Legend of Korra throughout Season 1. Although, there is one major problem I have with the end of The Legend of Korra season 1. In this video, i talk about why One Change Makes Legend of Korra Season 1 PERFECT

By losing her bending Korra was able to break her biggest attachment and learn the airbending philosophy of freedom through detachment

You could cut out Korra regaining her bending through Aang and instead make season 2 where partway through the season she overcomes a waterbending block, then season 3 would be about overcoming the spiritual blocks that keep her from Earthbending, and season 4 would be fire. She'd be a far stronger protagonist for the story instead of how things turned out..

I'M SO GLAD I WASNT THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS SO OFF PUT BY THAT 😭

If only. Korra having to relearn her bending would have been awesome.

[Polarii-hzvt]

Or aang couldve given it back but korras bending is completely messed up as in she tries to earthbend and ends up firebending so she would need to re learn all her elements and master them again

Nah, not even a minute in you mention a terrible misconception that needs to stop being spread: it's not true Bryke were given only one season. As they mentioned in an interview, one season was greenlit, but even before the production began, Nickelodeon told them it might be several seasons if the first one does well. So Bryke could've easily leave the ending open. After all, they did the same thing in Book 4 anyway, since Korra hasn't restored her connection to the previous Avatars (and since she's still connected to Raava, we know it's possible). Afterwards the other three seasons were greenlit and paid upfront, but for whatever reason Bryke decided to work at all of them at once, instead of going season by season. That's where all the discrepancies come from. And, btw, it's also the reason why they're lying when they tell you Korrasami was planned since Book 2. In reality, if you know anything about production, they must've pooped their pants over how badly Book 2 performed, but there was no more time to change Book 3, so they retraced their steps and tried to find something that they knew would give them serious watching quotas - and what else would that be than a queer ship, am I right? So they quickly changed the ending, but didn't have enough time to edit out the Makorra scenes and had to pretend the three or four moments Korra and Asami spent alone were supposed to be romantic. If you binge-watch Book 4, you'll notice just how different the second half of the final episode is. Both in terms of the visual (wrongly called "animation" by most people) and story.
So yeah, LoK could've been amazing, but that would've required a skilled head writer, whom Bryke chose to skip in their overconfidence in their own abilities.
That's also why it's most likely a good thing they walked out on Netflix.
If there's ever another Avatar show, we just have to watch it without expecting much, because Bryke can't deliver in the details that make a show stand out.
That said, I absolute adore Korra. I just can't stand half-assed work and how badly Bryke treated their own characters.
