RE: The Legend of Korra
Hmm, why haven't I seen this thread before?
But yes, I have been watching/inhaling the series actively, and I'm going to be honest: I don't really care about who Amon is. Everybody makes a big deal about it, and sure it will be surprising...but that's the point. To be surprised. So I'm not even going to worry about it until it happens.
I'm going to be honest my favorite characters are Lin and Bolin, mostly because of the personalities, but also because I like earthbenders.
I don't really feel as though the plot has been rushed to be honest. If anything, I think it's a great example to the coming adults of how fast a civilization can fall. I love the series and Korra. I don't find her annoying, since her trials in bending are less obvious than Aang's. For Aang we knew very well that he had to master the elements, and we knew exactly how he should do it, by finding masters.
But how exactly are we supposed to know what Korra is to do. Sure, she excels in the physical, but Aang had the same talent in the spiritual. Every person has a weakness, and this is hers. I don't really find that annoying. In fact, I find it fun because it's almost as though they completely switched the avatar's personality.
Oh, and by the way the soundtrack is fantastic and I shall listen to it everyday.
