Fucking agreed. It's one of the complaints I have absolutely never understood. Aang's much closer to a Mary Sue than she is and he isn't one. Korra isn't even the closest thing to a Mary Sue in her own show.
It just has to do with the time-scale of the shows probably. With Korra, we see she knows 3 of the 4 right when we see her, but then we don't see how long it takes for her to truly be good at them. Then, it only takes one season for her to finally "complete" her training (not counting the spiritual training, and actually mastering air of course). Still, she's like 18 by the time she even learns air I'm pretty sure, and probably much older before she masters it.

Aang, on the other hand, took 3 seasons to do it, but that was all jampacked in less than a year in the story's time.

Like, when it came to earth-bending, Aang's greatest struggle, it took him a single episode to start making progress. Whereas with Korra, as mentioned, it took her the entire first season to start being able to do air! Let's not forget, Aang was the youngest air-bending master and only 12 when he did all of this. I love Aang, and think the Avatar should be powerful, so I don't mind this at all. It kinda is the point that the Avatar is powerful! It feels like Korra is not that, lol.
