Has anyone else been watching? Holy guacamole at the preview for the season finale in a few weeks.

Re: Avatar: The Legend of Korra

I've been watching. I'm still dying to know why Amon can cheat at bending. Also Lin is awesome. When does the finale air? I didn't quite catch the date.

Re: Avatar: The Legend of Korra

23rd I believe.

Re: Avatar: The Legend of Korra

I also want to know what Bumi and Kya have been up to all this time, and I heard something about Zuko's daughter being the current Fire Lord as well.

Yeah. It will be interesting to see how they are doing. They have been drawn, so they might be planning something.

Zuko's VA has said he has done some work, so there might be a Zuko Flashback.

I still need to buy in-between comic books. Forgot all about that.

Yeah. I think part 2 might be out.

FWIW, D. B. Sweeny, Kate Higgins and Chris Hardwick were Aang, Toph and Sokka respectively.

What does that mean? I mean, I know you're listing out VAs, but...?

Well unscrunch your face, he will be in the finale according to the creators.

He'd better be, otherwise I'd be very...irate. I think I'm more excited to see him fight than Korra at this point. Not that Korra doesn't kick ass, but it's Iroh. He was easily my favorite character in Avatar, and that was even before it turned out he was a Grand Lotus.

My prediction for the Lin fiasco: Once Korra figures out how to get into the Avatar State, she should be able to use Aang's energybending. My bet is that she can reverse Amon's faux-energybending that way, kind of like how the Lion Turtle imparted knowledge to Aang by energybending him. As for the Amon fight, I originally thought she'd beat Amon with Airbending since that's the best bending style to fight someone that's fast as hell but can only hurt you up close, but I don't see how she could possibly become an Airbending master on short notice. Maybe she'll go into the Avatar State as soon as he tries to take away her bending? Aang somehow stopped Yakone's bloodbending that way. But Amon is one of those Xanathos Gambit, overprepared types...I'd be disappointed if he didn't know about the Avatar State.

Speculation go!

EDIT: Re: Bumi. My fiancé thought Bumi had married Zuko's daughter because of the collar his shirt has looked Fire Nation. Now it's obvious that it's the same type of uniform Iroh has, so he's part of the United Forces Army. Makes sense for Aang's son.

I don't think Amon is energybending. I think he is Chakra blocking. The 6th Chakra is in the forehead and it is the Chakra of illusion. I think he is blocking that chakra and embedding the illusion they can no longer bend. Same way that Azula inadvertently blocked Aang's Avatar state when she zapped his 7th Chakra. Amon only places his thumb on his forhead; Aang was forehead and chest. Removing it is probably easier than Energybending.

As for Korra's Airbending, she has all the movements down, she just hasn't connected Spiritually yet. Airbending is very defensive, Korra is not. If she can come over that road block, she will probably be decent from the get go. They are seemingly setting it up for Korra to go into the Avatar State from the previews. Amon has to know that killing the Avatar in the Avatar state will permanent remove the Avatar. He has this planned out too well. And yeah, Bumi's collar, I saw someone else pointing that out. It only makes too much sense.
