No problem about your late reply. I myself have fairly strong feelings towards the Legend of Korra. The animation is great and the characters are pretty good so far! If I had to pick a favorite it would like be Korra, not only is she a fairly rounded protagonist but she's also pretty HOT!!! Though Tenzin would likely be a close second, he's such a good mentor and his stoic nature makes it hilarious when it breaks!

I've talked with Akira about this but I would like to know your opinion...is Mako Batman? Think about it, both are brooding characters whose parents are killed right in-front of them at 8 years old. He's Batman! How awesome would it be if Batman was in Republic City and Mako was voiced by Kevin Conroy!?

Speaking of Republic City, that brings me to my only somewhat major criticism of Korra...it's a little too modern. On the one hand, I know they had to change the setting from what came before because we've seen the four nations and because time marches on. It wasn't a bad idea to have it be a somewhat industrial world. I like how it took certain things from a more industrial world and made them work in this world: the police blimps and the lightning benders powering huge generators.
However, there are some moments or elements that don't feel like this world even if it's 60 plus years in the future. The cars and motorcycles are the most districting elements. I would have liked them better if it had been a more basic model or the very beginnings of these things coming into existence. I realize this might just a matter of personal taste but I still am liking this show a lot!

The greatest reason for me liking this show is Amon and the central conflict. I feel that Amon will be the greatest villain in Avatar with the possible exception of Zuko. It's partially the mystery and his ability to take bending away (How the fuck does he do that?) but to me it's more because of the struggle between the benders and the "Equalists". There's so many potentially complex angles that could be used! Honestly, even while watching Avatar there was the thought of, how much does it suck to be a non-bender in this world. And as the gangs show, there is a certain truth to the benders exploiting those who can not bend. I would love this show as much as Avatar if it truly addressed the basic inequality of non-benders! Do you understand what I mean? Can you dig it?

Thank you very much. I will look into those stories in the meantime...you clearly have a respect and love for Total Drama but did you watch Total Drama Revenge of the Island? If you did, what did you think of it?
