It wasnt bad visually, but I dont remember it advancing the plot in any meaningful way and it had the unfortunate side-effect of leading to a lot of the forced drama that drags the series down. Not everything needs to advance the plot. And again this is just setting up the world people live in and it's a logical progression, now that there's peace what would become of bending in society? You've got criminals sure but you've also got cops, you've got teachers, you've got movies with fake bending, and now you've got athletes. Think of it like guns instead of bending and it's the same thing. Bending doesn't need to intrinsically be tied to some greater purchase of saving people, there are different applications to just as there are for guns. In the original that couldn't be the case because for 3 seasons the fire nation was threat to everybody so that's all it was tied to. Korra expanded on that in a reasonable way. --- Switch FC: SW-3917-4425-6106 PSN: PiKappaPhi769 <cite>Makeveli_lives posted [p:956492188] in Avatar:TLA...
