Deaths and Almost Deaths

I almost counted my almost death in this section because I think my heart stopped about 50+ times in that finale.

Let’s start it off with the Earth Queen being left breathless after Zaheer air bends the air out of her lungs. Insert Zaheer's monologue about the world entering into darkness here. This is the first time we actually get to see air bending used in a deadly way. You could say it’s the air equivalent to blood bending. It shows that Zaheer is definitely not messing about when it comes to taking out the world leaders! I never liked the Earth Queen. How could you like her after finding out she ate Bosco and baby bison?! As unlikeable as she was, I was still pretty shaken by her death.

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air

First thing's first... WOAH! Daniela missed her Thursday post! My apologies dear readers, my personal life went a bit haywire and week 6 of university happened. You get the jist. But better late than never! This week I've come to you with a behemoth of a post that I've been planning on writing for a while. It's so big that I even had to split it into 2 posts! Look out for part 2 tomorrow!

After months and months of silence, Avatar fans finally got their third season of The Legend of Korra! I've tried to summarise my thoughts about key characters/plots below in an (un)organised fashion. I'd also like to mention that this was written in collaboration with my friend Rosie who helped me come up with some points and remember details that I completely missed.

*WARNING: The Legend of Korra - Book 3 spoilers ahead!*

I liked Book 1 but found that there was too much romance for my liking. Book 2 was alright but sometimes the plot was just too confusing. Book 3 is by far the best season of The Legend of Korra to date. It's darker, gritter and on par with the standard that its predecessor set. Although predictable, it has the best plot, characters and animation of any of the books.Team Avatar is back and up against Zaheer and the Red Lotus. Since Book 2, Korra has lost her connection with her past lives and is trying to keep the balance between the spirit and human worlds. She soon learns about a group of benders lead by Zaheer who have been trying to kidnap her since she was a child. Armed with his newfound ability to airbend, Zaheer plans to bring the world into anarchy and end the Avatar cycle for once for all.
