![]() ![]() This season is well worth five stars on its own. The animation of the series continues to improve as well, as does the world building (there is some very nice information revealed about the Beifong family and various different forms of Bending) and character development (Bolin in particular has a nice character arc this season). The four Benders hunting the Avatar are particularly good and are far better antagonists than those of the first two seasons. This third season builds wonderfully on the previous two, with some truly great action scenes (the final fight in the season finale is particularly good), an interesting plot and some very good characters introduced. Meanwhile however, a group of powerful Benders have set their sights on the Avatar with malicious intent. One of the unexpected result of the events of Harmonic Convergence is for a number of regular people developing Airbending abilities allowing Korra, Tenzen and their friends the chance to rebuild the Air Nomad society. 'Book Three: Change' sees the world forced to deal with the consequences of Korra’s actions at the climax of the previous season. Unfortunately however the main human bad guy of this season isn’t anywhere near as entertaining as Amon from the first season. The series also sees some nice development for some of the existing characters, especially Tenzin and his eldest daughter Jinora. This season introduce a number of interesting and entertaining characters such as the Water Tribe entrepreneur Varrick and Korra’s cousins Desna and Eska. The season also sees the history of the Avatar explored somewhat with the two episode flashback to the life of Wang the first Avatar probably being one of my favourite parts of the entire show. This second season is just as good as the first with some very nice action scenes, especially in the final few episodes, and some great animation. Matters are complicated however by a longstanding disagreement between Korra’s father and his brother Unalaq, the chieftain of the Northern Water Tribe that leads to trouble between North and South. Korra herself is also quite interesting and a nice change from Aang.Īs its name suggests 'Book Two: Spirits', the show’s second season, sees Korra deal with the Spirit World and its inhabitants for the first time as the bridge between the two worlds as Dark Spirits begin attacking Water Tribe ships. Of the characters in the season, my favourites have to be the Airbender children, who are all very fun, as well as Toph’s daughter Lin who makes a very good chief of police. The plot of the series itself is also reasonably good with some nice twists here and there, even if the final resolution is a little quick for my liking. The season also does a very good job of reintroducing the world of Avatar, showing how much has developed since the end of 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' and introducing the nice steampunk feel of the setting. The animation and action in the series are both very good, as is the voice acting of the entire cast. I very much enjoyed this season and the antagonist Amon is probably one of my favourite villains of the Avatar franchise as a whole. The season itself is very entertaining and sees Korra attempt to master Air (the only element she has had trouble with) while competing in professional Bending competitions and dealing with anti-Bender sentiment in Republic City, the capital of the allied nations. The first two discs of this set include all twelve episodes of the first season, 'Book One: Air', as well as commentaries for the first and last two episodes of the season as well as a short puppet featurette. The series as a whole follows Korra, the Avatar following Aang, as she first has to fully develop her powers as she deals with a variety of threats. This great box set includes all four seasons of the brilliantly entertaining 'Legend of Korra' series. ![]()
