AVATAR THE LEGEND OF KORRA FANS: Do you think the legend of Korra is good as the original series?

I think it was really close but the mushy romantic stuff was a tad too much and well the cheap comedy from Bolin also pissed me off. He's just TRIES to be funny, Sokka was funny and strategic/smart (he was an actual, important character!). Not to mention Korra just mastered the avatar state just like that. Unlike Aang. Maybe someone can clear that up for me. I have a feeling season 2 is going to be much better though and good as the original series. Anyway. I hope Zuko appears in season 2,3,4 (hopefully 2) and we see alot of him and you know how his life, relationship (Zuko x Mai FTW!), etc. T4R? EDIT: No arguing. EDIT: Those of you saying book 1 air was close to TLAB but not as good as it, season 1 was made when they only had one season in mind, rushing the season/book, later nick agreed with the directers to have more season (4) so now they can actually have a plot which goes across all the seasons.

    I'm always shocked by how many people think it's fair to compare the first season of Korra, 10 episodes of what they thought might be their only season of the show, to the entirety of ATLA. Since I'm not going to reply to everyone individually, here's a few people in this very topic who seem to be making that mistake but they're obviously free to defend themselves and I encourage them to do so if they see this: Wars0ngGlutch WinyPit RealMattMilan And some others who had shorter posts and I'm less sure of what they were trying to say. If you compare the first 10 episodes of Korra to the first 10 of TLA with [b]no exterior considerations[/b], it's really not close at all: Korra is better. But that doesn't say anything about the two against each other, because the first 10 of TLA were setting up what was always expected to be a full-length, planned out story about several particular characters. The exterior considerations matter a hell of a lot. Thus I don't think it's a very fair comparison at this point in time. I will say this, though: Season 1 of Korra impressed me a lot. I think it has the potential to exceed TLA handily, and I loved TLA to death. (This hardly needs saying but there's a brigade of TLA fans out there that will never accept Korra as a superior sequel no matter how good the show gets for the next few seasons. It's like how if the Hobbit trilogy was the greatest film trilogy in history there would still be a number of fans who would say LOTR was way better.)
