The sequel sequence to The Final Airbender follows a brand new avatar: Korra. The Legend of Korra takes place a long time after the unique sequence, in accordance with Polygon, and presents viewers with utterly new characters to get to know (in the event you haven’t watched the present earlier than, that’s). Should you haven’t seen Korra earlier than, know that the titular character is the present incarnation of Avatar.
Does this make Korra the final Avatar?
Korra isn’t the final Avatar, however simply the illustration of a brand new cycle of Avatars. Nowhere within the sequence does it suggest that when Korra dies, there can be no extra Avatars once more, or that the Avatar cycle ought to finish.
In keeping with a fan on Stack Trade, “Her connection to the previous Avatars was destroyed, however upon merging with Raava once more, she turned full Avatar once more.” They added, “Primarily, she’s no totally different from Wan, the primary Avatar. She’s merged with Raava, she has the flexibility to bend all the weather (and power). The following Avatar can have entry to her, simply as she used to have entry to previous Avatars.”

Plus, if Korra was the final Avatar, that might imply we wouldn’t get extra Avatar reveals and films sooner or later, and that might simply be unacceptable.
Individuals on Twitter have loads of emotions about Korra.
Not solely is it a badass sequence, however The Legend of Korra presents followers with an LGBTQ+ relationship: Korra and Aasami Sato’s relationship is a reasonably large deal, contemplating this aired on Nickelodeon. Whereas we want we noticed extra same-sex {couples} on TV, Korra (which premiered again in 2012!) paved the way in which for extra inclusivity and queer reveals. Producers and present writers, take word!
Some are defending Korra, since there are The Final Airbender followers (lots of whom are dudes) who want there was extra of Aang and fewer of Korra. “in the event you hate Korra preserve that s**t to your self, it is embarrassing,” one Twitter consumer wrote. The truth is, some persons are actually anti-Korra, criticizing others who get pleasure from it.
Oooh, burn. One Twitter consumer joked, “incels hate korra as a result of she will truly get a girlfriend.” (Incels are self-identifying celibate males who declare they can not discover love despite the fact that they wish to.)
