The entire point of the Avatar is that they're able to enforce balance and peace by being an overpowered demigod. No, I think it symbolized that she rode Naga until she couldn't ride her anymore - she went out as far as possible to be alone. Just look at how she reacted to her air bending training. I'd have ended it differently. I'm shit at guessing age, [–]Flynn58 -3 points-2 points-1 points 6 years ago (2 children). Definitely this. Edit: Does this second post make more sense? "No," Sakura said. This isn't the answer. This bear is going to do everything to ensure this kill, and protect its young. They obviously had no problem with suicide, as shown with Tarlok and Amon. Before it sort of implied that OP was viewing Korra as something capible of thought independant of the writers, which is impossible. Server is community run. [–]KrabbHD 31 points32 points33 points 6 years ago (22 children), [–]AnOnlineHandle 4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (18 children). You've taken my comment completely out of context with the chain. This idea that you suggest just wouldn't go down well with children. They are defeated by Korra's friends and the new airbenders, but Korra is severely injured and psychologically traumatized. The Avatar is nearly powerless and she has no future. When Roku used Lava-bending in the episode where his temple was destroyed, we all assumed - and so did the Nickolodean comment writers - that it was a combination of Earth and Fire Bending that let him do that. A standalone Katara focused graphic novel releasing Oct 2020. Zaheer had a plan to kill the Avatar. Later after more training, Korra becomes able to easily enter this form with complete control, even during intense competition.

She breaks free and is able to combat Zaheer while battling the poison, though succumbs to it before Suyin bends it out of her, Korra ⦠If I remember correctly, the Book 2 contract wasn't signed until after production was completed on Book 1. Just because somebody has a plan doesnt mean it's a sure thing, and it doesn't mean that Korra was giving herself up any less. Avatar Korra herself has the thickest plot armor in the entire series, seeing how she is the Avatar and the protagonist. Maybe, but he didn't cry at any other point...

She was so frustrated that she left the room with naga and sat at the top of a cliff too (I don't think it was the same one). No, she didn't comtemplate it. (There is a very extensive theory floating around out there about how she went through all the Chakras, but I can't remember it all offhand. You pretty much failed at your life. You know that Korra isn't a real person, and there for can't think thoughts that the writers don't write? The Red Lotus assassinates the Earth Queen, throwing her kingdom into chaos, and captures Korra to attempt to kill her and end the Avatar cycle. As quickly as the first round broke, it started up again, the bear moving in for another round and the wolf back on defense. Suyin had a plan to kill Kuvira that night they got captured. OP implied that it was written in, and then the team learned the show would continue. However, my reasoning is different from yours. [–]Separate but Equalhoryo 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children). Book 2 would have to be changed up a bit. She just barely recovers though, and stands up, and sees Aang. Korra began to think to herself as she was transfixed by the moment. Now, thanks to some nut job, that's all gone in the blink of an eye. No blatant reposts! [–]jesusHERCULESchrist 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children). "Well alright then. Look at it from a marketing perspective: there's a reason why the "good guys win" in things that are marketed towards children. The main focus is Korra recovering from her injuries and mental trauma. Korra knew that even if somebody had a plan, that Zaheer is tricky and clever and any plan they might have had a good chance to fail. I just think that Korra wanted to be alone for a while and sort herself out.

This theory is pulled from the moment when Korra was crying on the edge of a cliff. She went in knowing there was a chance they couldn't save her. Its a bit of a wall of text but i think it is worth while. I think she might have been, but not because she was depressed, but for practical reasons. Korra knew that even if somebody had a plan, that Zaheer is tricky and clever and any plan they might have had a good chance to fail. Still, probably not. Do not post links to/images from leaked comic content. What good is an Avatar who can't bend 3/4 elements? [–]"Let us leave!" We're in enemy territory.

This, this post, is the main problem with this subreddit. The plan was just "save Korra". edit: i think you changes your comment a little, so i will reply to the second part. That act is not less, because Suyin had a plan to save her. Super late, but was Korra originally going to kill herself? She TOTALLY was planning on offing herself. [–]Rises with the moonchattypenguin 23 points24 points25 points 6 years ago (9 children). Korra's loss was her bending just as she was mastering it, at the start of her journey... not sure how to read the decision to turn back offhand (and I don't remember the exact scene so well)---perseverance despite her journey seemingly ruined? edit: I saw a comment lower down that suggests that, even though the writers didn't think of it, Korra herself did. [–]Gambling-Dementor 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (4 children). Toph can Earthbend while in mid-air. So maybe 10 is arbitrary but there's definitely a basis. That's the reason the Avatar state popped up right then; It was a self-defense mechanism against herself. When Korra tried to stop him he decided to hit her where it hurts most, brainwashing Asami, Mako, and Bolin into thinking they were Korraâs enemies. Then her spirit felt like it floated away from her body and when it came back to the ground she was no longer in the murky sewers of Republic city but the illustrious Spirit World. Korra encouraged herself. 6 Results 7 Trivia RWBY vs Legend of Korra! [–]MahoganyTownXD -2 points-1 points0 points 6 years ago (6 children), logic - which is to say very little - Earthbenders always have contact with minuscule pieces of dirt in the air, but Toph still needs to be.

[–]Brainiac_Outcast 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children). If there's ever a point where ending it all seems pretty tempting, it would be then. Just because she choose to sit down at a cliff does not mean she was thinking about suicide, maybe she just felt that this was a good place to stop. Killing the avatar like that would be just flat out an anticlimatic ending on top of an suicide already and it will probably frustrate a lot of people how they feel about Korra. If you're still confused, read the previous replies or, alternatively, watch the show that will give the answer. I can fix this. There. After being captured and poisoned by the Red Lotus, Korra must fight to keep herself from being killed in the Avatar State, which would end the entire Avatar Cycle forever.

Exactly. ), [–]Empty, and become wind.Gliiitterpop 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago* (1 child). Korra is someone the audience is supposed to sympathize with; considering the younger audience, Nick would never green light a show where the hero (that these kids are supposed to identify with) kills herself. I don't know, but won't it be interesting to find out? A huge part of herself is just gone. The final season, Book Four: Balance, takes place three years later. So Korra is faced with the choice of killing herself or plunging the world into another century of war. Korra stood to her feet and assumed her combat stance as well. "Why is everyone sad? Now it was the Earth Kingdom's turn for an Avatar. Three years ago, a zealous anarchist abducted Avatar Korra, bound her in chains, and tried to kill her. Afraid I’ll redirect it?!”. The shot of her tear falling over the cliff, she has to be leaning right over for that to happen. It was made pretty clear he didn't know. Show Korra jump? Zuko literally tried to kill himself in the comics. I feel like she wasn't going to the cliff specifically to die. Also "at our lowest point we are open to out greatest change", [–]AnOnlineHandle 13 points14 points15 points 6 years ago (23 children). I think that he was nostalgic about the old times or something like that. If Korra's just an airbender, there is no Avatar around to do that. I don't think anyone is dumb enough to think that. It's not over. IIRC, unless they made other slip-ups later in the show (which they may have), that was the only time she was able to dodge or catch something she couldn't see or get a trajectory from seismic-sense. Everyone looked up at Korra. All of those plans failed. The only things she thinks are what the writers tell her to think. They do this by making smart choices about what they show, in order to please most viewers. it's not hard to imagine that a waterbender would be able to have some sort of water-sense through that. One "commits" suicide, [–]Wheezin_Ed 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children). Personally, I do not think their intention was to make her think this. Well, ok. That is dark but not strictly a bad thing. [–]AnOnlineHandle -2 points-1 points0 points 6 years ago (3 children). My twit: https://twitter.com/BattleKorra My discord: https://discord.com/invite/wYqtNau3SmPatreon link: https://www.patreon.com/ThatboiKorra I don't care how much you want to downplay that. Waterbenders can sense water and Earthbenders can sense earth. Not based on how it was portrayed by his brother it couldn't. Kind of what I was thinking too. For Tarrlok/Noatak, the end of the Equalist arc and both of their projects/aspirations is the end of a long journey for them, and their death is another step forward through life (contrast to what Tarrlok was saying about things like they were before). Everything about Korra and Kuviraâs fight in this episode made sense from Korraâs weaknesses to Kuviraâs reluctance to just outright kill her. Many people here may think they are, but they aren't.

To defend my point, when it's crazy humid and you feel like you're swimming just walking down the street, it's not hard to imagine that a waterbender would be able to have some sort of water-sense through that. Like, it's pretty heavy for a kids show but a couple scenes before that a man did kill himself and his brother. Over the last month, this has been a highly debated topics I've seen on the internet, Was Korra going to kill herself in Endgame? I'd totally have had her jump off the cliff, and start talking after a second or two: Wait. Kids watch this. While in the Avatar State, Korra is able to use an air spout to raise herself into the air while unleashing all four elements in rapid succession. It seems awfully out of character for Korra to even consider it. He definitely would not have let himself die. They build towards LoK and answer some questions left at the end of ATLA. Memes must feature avatar characters (as in images of them). [–]the last fartbenderglottal__stop 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children). It just gave a greatest sense of looming, unstoppable evil. Explaining to others why they should watch Avatar. But they made it really obvious how much she was considering it. Of course Bryke wouldn't have killed off Korra, stand alone series or not. So yes she surrendered herself, and it didn't matter that Suyin had a plan. I never got that disconnect. [–]the last fartbenderglottal__stop 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (3 children). She surrendered herself to Zaheer to save the Air Nation. But I didn't get that particular feel from the scene myself. She would get frustrated with herself to the point that she would lash out at basically everyone, and that's just because she couldn't immediately pick up on it. A huge part of herself is just gone. Korra, Mako and Bolin go on Naggaâs back to find Jinâs hideout. Well, there's only one way out of being the Avatar (well, at the time). It is a kids show. Lin recognizes Korra is the Avatar however she is clear in that Korra will be given enough lee-way to be given a warning about disturbing the peace but she will not be excused if she outright breaks the law. Show her falling from behind? But i don't know. It is very likely that I am remembering incorrectly. I don't think so. In the end, Suyin was able to kill P'Li by using her metalbending abilities. I always edit my comments too much after I submit them! And I think you're missing the point. [–]We're in enemy territory. Maybe. Can you imagine losing your powers as the avatar and everybody is just waiting for you to die so the next avatar can come and save everyone? I never said "it's okay for them to die". Kuvira is also the supporting protagonist in the graphic novel trilogy Ruins of the Empire. She is a metalbender who was formerly part of the Metal Clan in Zaofu. ", [–]blade55555 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children). At this point in the series, her role as the Avatar has made up her entire identity for most of her life, and she hates herself for failing everyone and losing her bending. But as she's watching the teardrop fall, it occurs to her that there is an escape. What do you mean by âgive herself up any lessâ i didnât get that part? Even if it is solely from an audiences perspective that she does so. ood grasp at three elements at age, what, 10? How fucked up that would be. Reply to @Zacatero U did answer my question but i donât get what u mean by âthe act is not lessâ ? thank you so much for explaining and iâm so sorry if i bothered you, @HammerOfThor and @Hanabi-chan. That same night, she knew for a fact that her life was not worth living anymore. People who say she wouldn't don't understand that Korra is at that point in her life completely without purpose since all she was was the avatar, as we learned from scene 1 episode 1. They talk, he gives her the other elements back, and he teaches her how to energybend on her own, but she doesn't get the Avatar State for free. [–]3thirtysix6 7 points8 points9 points 6 years ago (0 children). She gave it a lot of thought. [–]The_Vikachu 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children). Korra sat on the ground, she took in one deep breath and exhaled all the distractions around her, clearing her mind. She breaks down sobbing, because she has no way out. THIS IS A FUCKING KIDS SHOW. She wouldn't have in terms of the show (who the hell ends a kids show with suicide of the main character). She was going to kill herself. You may prefer the ending your way, but be realistic here. At this point, Korra had no concept beyond blunt force. [–]Dracodeus 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children), Never thought of this. Here's the entire comment, context inclusive: Sure, and by that logic - which is to say very little - Earthbenders always have contact with minuscule pieces of dirt in the air, but Toph still needs to be touching the ground with her bare feet in order to sense movement. I like to believe this! [–]My fishing skills are... off the hooktiger66261 23 points24 points25 points 6 years ago (10 children).

She also gave a lot of thought on how she could go about this without being caught. Check the FAQ for more details. Korra IS the Avatar, that's her entire identity. Sakura ignored Korra's word and assumed her combat stance. Do not request/post non-official stream/download links for any episodes or comics. No she doesn't. You're misinterpreting things. [–]MahoganyTownXD -1 points0 points1 point 6 years ago (2 children). I highly doubt Bryan and Mike had that in mind. ok so iâm rewatching tlok and i finished book 3 and iâm confused,was korra really going to sacrifice herself for the air nation (if zaheer didnât double-cross them) or were they going to follow suyins plan that she came up with 3 minutes and 57 seconds into episode 12?iâm really confused because tenzin said she was at the end of the season,and suyin came up with a plan but at the short time period where korra was handcuffed and taken by pâli and zaheer,nobody attacked them,so were they following suyins plan or what? Tarlock and Noatack literally considered and did it 2 minutes earlier, with the same music and tears I think. That's why they didn't, they just implied that she might have. [–]mediocremandalorian 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children). One bad guy blows up himself and another bad guy? Those are enemy birds. Fair enough, though that was a rather rude way to put it. I kinda like that the possibilities of bending are in pretty constant flux. Remember what happened last time there was no Avatar? That act is not less, because Suyin had a plan to save her. Use the search function before posting. [–]3thirtysix6 3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children).

[–]The Morning is EvilLooneyCat 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (1 child). /U/Whezzin_Ed said it was entirely different for the villains. He did not know. But people are dumb enough to think that. Korra on the other hand is a skilled leader of the battle field and is often the one who calls the shots when there is a fight or the one to make the tough calls that the others can't or wouldn't do such as choosing to give herself up to the Red Lotus to save the airbenders. Had she killed herself, she would have reborn into a new Avatar, capable of bending the elements again. It doesn't mean she didn't think it though. You gotta deal with it!" "You had other ways." [–]It's the quenchiest!FartherAwayx3 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (2 children). They both did and didn't. One could theorize that the "extra wisdom" could aid Korra into extracting the venom on her own, but technically speaking, there is no extra wisdom since she lost her connection with her past lives. "C'mon on girl focus!" Both characters were bad guys, and dying in an explosion is more... cartoon friendly. No way would The Legend of Korra kill her off, especially since her name is in the title, but some of Korra's battles could have and should have turned out much worse. These avatar themed subreddits are fully or partially run by moderators of /r/TheLastAirbender. She's overcome with grief and despair, but it's not because she's planning on dying. Was it implied? This wording of the point OP was making is much better. "No." How did you take his meaning? One of the last things she says to Mako before she leaves is "I'm not the Avatar anymore." You're looking way too deep into this. We know from her dream that she feels, deep down, that being the Avatar is the only thing that's special about her. On top of that, Korra has always been an extremely skilled bender. You may not see them as evil, but Tarrlok and Noatak are undoubtedly the antagonists. After being captured and poisoned by the Red Lotus, Korra must fight to keep herself from being killed in the Avatar State, which would end the entire Avatar Cycle forever. At the end of season one, she goes to the cliff and starts leaning over, crying. The fourth season would culminate in Kuvira 's assault on Republic City in a gigantic robotic suit and armed with a canon capable of firing spirit energy.

It's been a while since I watched Book 1 and I haven't analysed it as far as I'd like, but there's probably an interesting thesis to explore around the contrast between Tarrlok/Noatak's death and Korra's decision not to. Ghazan then comes along and ruins that theory because that's just what fits for the story and looks cool. The writers gives abilities and powers to characters on the basis of what works dramatically. Because she doesn't feel like she has one. I can bring balance. Hell, why else would she stand on the edge of the cliff, looking down? Over the course of one night, she feared that she would never see Korra again, saw her horrifically injured when they reunited, knows that Korra was nearly being killed by the Red Lotus, as well as nearly being murdered herself by Zaheer, Korra's kidnapper, if Korra had not healed her.
