And I'm saying that doesn't make sense. The Bending Brothers should have gotten more attention, because they were actually very important. They are like Sokka & Katara. Strictly speaking, you don't need "2 Water Tribe characters," but they serve as traveling companions & provide Aang with a destination. They're basically the core of Team Avatar.

Same thing with the Bending Brothers. Pro-Bending is the "excuse" to have a trio of strong benders, including the Avatar. They also serve as a motivation to defy Tenzin & get out into the city, where she learns about the Equalist Revolution that she has to face. Asami then enters the team through Mako.

Bearing that in mind, of course they have more interaction with Korra. But if you take away all of the Pro-Bending stuff, she interacts about as much with Asami.

Asami tries to get to know her, Korra is evasive, admits she was wrong, they fight, Korra is still there for her when it's over, it's a pretty fully developed relationship. It does kind of drop off after that, but this is because the finale has Asami sent off to deal with her father, & Korra goes with Mako to take on Amon. We can fully expect a resurgence in Book 2.

Finally, the story with her father...I don't have much to say about it, really. I wasn't fond of all of the foreshadowing to his regrets being a red herring, but then again, if writers aren't allowed to do the unexpected at times, then what is the point?
