Pleased
💬
Strong start so far! Wasnt a fan of the animation initially but it grew on me.
Warming
💬
I'm a little concerned cause it breaks lore, but I'm also intrigued to see where it goes. I do like them as characters though!
Intrigued
💬
Am I the only one watching this and thinking the animation is not done yet
Skeptical
💬
It is all kind of lame, lazy and breaks lore. Whatever.
Critical
💬
Animation doesnt bother me, the dialogue is off
Critical
😞
good speech but the rest of the dialogues in the show feels unnatural and forced, sorry to say :(
Disappointed
💬
The animation and art style is cheap and poorly done. You made a better series 20 years ago with a smaller budget and no fan base. This is inexcusable.
Frustrated
💬
I know my queen Korra is innocent!
Loyal
💬
I'm enjoying the new show but man do I wish we got another season of Korra or a movie for her :/
Wistful
🙏
Honeslty im really hoping neither of them turn evil, i really like that we have twin girl mcs
Hopeful
🤔
I love the twins I just believe they cant enter avatar state without each other. Idk I never read the books so that my lil theory
Curious
🤔
I see the Avatar twins as incarnations of Vaatu and Rava. Which would explain them being polar opposites.
Curious
💬
I love seeing different Asian cultures, and seeing South Asian is just lovely
Pleased
💬
I was just so excited to see a disabled character represented as an MC.
Represented
😞
Sad the whole equality for nonbenders & technology leveling the playing field is gone. Maybe there will be a technologically advanced haven
Disappointed
💬
A cat-monkey is seriously brilliant.
Delighted
