I HAVE THE SOLUTION!!! <p>Ok Korra HAS to still be connected to the past Avatars because of the fact that she still holds the ability to bend all four elements, or we assume she does. Raava doesn't bend elements, she enhances the bending of elements. It was Raava and her connection to Wan that created the Avatar.If Korra truly lost that connection and her ability to comunicate with the past Avatars, then she would also lose her ability to bend Earth, Fire, and Air.  </p><p>Right? </p> </i></div>
<p>That's exactly what I thought when watching it!!! Because Rava was the one holding the other elements since Wan could only use one at a time. So surely in the time that Rava was "destroyed" Korra should have only been able to bend water as its her native element? But I don't see how that has anything to do with the connection to the previous avatars, unless you're saying that only the connection to the bending would be lost not the avatars connection? </p>

Technically if Tonraq hadn't been banished he wouldn't have met Senna and Korra wouldn't exsist. However hypothetically if Tonraq had met Senna and wasn't banished he would be Chief and Korra would be Princess of the Northern Water Tribe like Yue. However now that Tonraq is Chief of the Southern Water Tribe and if the people decide for it to become a "royal" bloodline then yes Korra would technically be the "princess" of the Southern Tribe.

<p>I think that the avatar world will stick to its roots and considering the spirits now wondering around i dont think it will modernise that much. I think that the quality of materials and things like that will imporve and they'll gain things such as television but i don't think it will be alot and i hope its not either. I think the Avatar world has a unique concept and to modernise it anymore would alienate it from what it was. Right now I just want to se Ba Sing Sei and Omashu than anything else being modernised anyfurther.  </p>

<p>Everyone kind of forgets the season 2 finale of LoA in that Azula actually killed Aang whilst he was in the avatar state. Shouldn't the connection already have been severed with his death, spirit oasis water aside, as if an avatar is killed during the avatar state the cycle will be broken? So considering that I think that Korra will reconnect and it will most likely be bizarre but I think its important as the previous avatar to the current one is a mentor sharing their experiences and Korra was finally spiritually ready to connect with Aang and now that connection is gone? I understand the reasoning behind why they did it, however I think the "New Age" thing could have been the re-opening of the spirit portals not the loss of Korra's connection to the previous avatars.  </p>

I think that she will be voiced by the same actress and look like a mixture of azula and ursa

<p>I think that Azula is probably the best developed character on the show. Her descent into madness was quite disturbing and the reasoning behind it was brilliant! I hope they bring her back in some way but i think its too soon right now. With the revalations about Ursa I think that Azula will be back soon for some sort of conflict with Zuko but nothing to do with the New Ozai Club/Group/Thing. I think eventually she will get better with Ursa taking care of her but she will still be an antagonistic character. Considering that Zuko is still alive and he was a good 3 years older than her, and Katara being the same age as her I can see Azula still being alive. I don't think she'll be a villan though, taking age into consideration she wouldn't be able to do as much as she used to. I hope she's back in LoK though! That voice gives me the chills.... </p>

Why would they introduce this plot device of Lion Turtles who can give people elemental powers if they were just going to turn around & make it irrelevant?</i></div>
<p>Because it was the story of how the Avatar aquired the four elements. After Wan closed the spirit portals the humans were able to wonder the world and had no need of the protection of the Lion Turtles. The Lion Turtles stopped giving the abilities to people and so the people had to learn. As shown although he already had the power to bend, Wan learnt how to use fire as an extension from a dragon so the animals already had the power in that era and of course the original water benders being spirits will have had it also. You could argue that people kept their bending from the lion turtles but Wan was the only known survivor to have kept his bending from the fire turtle so it could be possible from the other turtles.  </p>

<p>I would love Jinora to become more central to the cast. I think that we need a more prominante airbender. Don't get me wrong I like Tenzin but I miss the 4 benders 1 non-bender element of team avatar and i think that Jinora would slip in nicely. </p><p>I would also love for Jinora to invent the sub-skill but I'm struggling to think of what it would be :\ this is probably me reading to much into it but what about sound bending? She seemed to know alot about the radio and was able to give Wan Shi Tong a very accurate discription on how it all worked :D  </p>

<p>I was soo disappointed :( I think she has so much potential as a character but they use her like some kind of multi purpose taxi service! I think the writers forget she can fight, I mean she took out the equalist lieutenant! The whole love triangle thing pisses me off. I think that there doesn't need to be any kind of relationships! The first series had some flickers here an there but they weren't prominant until the final season. I think they kind of screwed Asami over after they changed the orginal concept of her being an equalist spy to being Mako's 2nd choice girl. They need to develop more on her character and make her more prominant and have her actually kick some ass! </p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>

I agree completely with TUW and Teambeifong. Azula pushed Maiko really only to get Zuko to come back to the Fire Nation with her. Also it was never even shown that Zuko liked Mai. So yeah they definitely seemed forced. </i></div>
<p>Thats completely wrong! Zuko chose his side in the catacombes of Ba Sing Se! he sided with Azula as it was the perfect opportunity to capture Aang. Zuko did care for Mai, a lot actually, and it was shown multiple times even when they were kids! The most prominent that come to mind are on Ember Island and The Boiling Rock. Their relationship isn't forced just unique and if anything Azula teased them about it, thats hardly encouraging. </p>

I was really happy but honestly this was mostly a thing to make old fans happy. <p>
I won't deny, Iroh was a very spritual and philsophical person, but what makes him the only person to see in this episode? I mean if Iroh was capable to join the spirit world. should there not be other "Human" inhabitants? </p> </i></div>
<p>In the original series Iroh was possibly one of the most enlightened characters if not the most enlightened. He was this series' Yoda! He spent alot of time after the death of his son looking for a higher purposes and it was rumoured that he had spent time in the spirit world. I think its a case of if you have the potential to be there you can choose to stay on there after death. The only character that i could think of that could be there bar from the past avatars would be Guru Pathik so i presume it would be a select few indivuals that have great knowledge and understanding of the spirit world or those like Jinora who are very open minded. .  </p>

Does anyone else want Yue to come in with some Moon spirit powered waterbending and kick Unalaq's ass? She was the Princess of the Northern Water Tribe and may not be too happy with the direction Unalaq is taking haha and the two could be related meaning she's related to Korra etc. I think it would be a good look back into the first series to a character that had so much potential and it would be great to see how she has grown after becoming the spirit of the moon.
