#team korra

For some reason people like to pu the Gaang against Korra's team and make fun of Korra's team for being weaker.

Like yeah... ofc they are. The Gaang wasn't just Aangs team, the Gaang was his teachers and peers. Each bender on that team learned from the respective source of their respective bending, and with the exception of toph they learned alongside aang. they were also on the quest to master all four elements in a year. zuko was training to be the firelord, toph's bending had been honed with the badger moles since she was a child and then honed more in the wrestling arena, aang had already been an airbending prodigy beforehand, and katara's sheer balls and her creativity made her an amazing bender. in my honest opinion the only thing keeping aang from being the weakest bender in the gaang was the fact that he was the avatar and his airbending abilities, cause he is not healing ppl back to life, toph, or breathing fire. korra's team isnt as strong because like, obviously they never needed to be. mako and bolin were athletes. mako could lighting bend and bolin could lava bend, but their training wasn't as intensive or war ready as the training of the freaking next in line for the firelord or someone who needed to use her bending to navigate her life independently. they were training to win at a very specific game, and their other bending forms just weren't honed for that level of combat. korra never got to train with any of the original sources of her bending, but she was still an extremely powerful avatar, and the most powerful bender on her team because she had been training with dicipline in order to actually fight, now knock people off a ring in pro bending. if youve gotten this far im sure youre noticing something that is very clearly missing from this post. the nonbenders. honestly, i can't compare sokka and asami. why? i dont remember if asami knows how to chi block or not. she'd been trained in self defense i know, and they are both very capable intellectually and have fighting styles that give them the edge even against benders, which is super impressive. granted, i cannot remember if asami fights much without the stun glove, and i don't remember what level asami was fighting at if she did. under the impression that asami can chi block, i would say that she and sokka are pretty evenly matched.

Thinking about, however sad it may be, if Aang had died earlier (shortly after Tenzin was born) Korra's team avatar could've been Lin, Kya, Tenzin, Bumi and Izumi.

I feel like the Gaang's kids would've made the perfect team avatar in another timeline

Other Avatars and their companions: great friends! Maybe we'll date a person from the team but let's not make it that messy.

Korra's Team Avatar:

[doctorkatmd]

Everyone rags on Korra's team avatar for not being "close"

but being an adult in their early 20's myself, they seem entirely accurate for a group of friends trying to balance their work lives with jobs and rent to pay.

Aangs group were kids, with adults often paying for them in one way or another (Or Toph scamming people). Plus, they had a singular, unifying, and constant goal for the runtime of that show, they were with each other, traveling for the entire show.

But Korra's villain's were months, sometimes years, apart from each other. In-between they have lives, jobs, relationships. And we see the results in the show.

We see Mako go through an entire career progression from Criminal -> Pro-Bender -> Police -> Body guard. But the kicker is, Aangs team goes through something similar as they age. We see some of it in the comics. From all accounts, they remain close friends, but they all split off and do their own thing, have their own career's, start families, their future looks a lot like what Korra's team avatar looks like, only it's after the show, not during.

Gone from "rather serious" to relaxed and happy.

Note: first one is one of two official posters released before season 1. The second is from Legend of Korra: An Avatar's Chronicle.

"Krew" - Team Avatar 

Reference

[dreamchasernina]

Am I the only one worried about adult gaang movie? I know Bryke are the ones working on it, but honestly…I don’t have much faith in them.

Look, Avatar is like this sacred prefect thing to me, and I cannot handle a thought of something ruining this perfect story and characters. It ended so perfectly, but to be able to write another story with these characters they’re gonna have to create problems, right?

Like for instance, how are they going to create a villain that will be an actual threat to Aang (especially Aang in the avatar state), without breaking the rules of the world they built? They broke those rules over and over again in Korra to one up a previous villain.

Another conern is, are they going to ruin the relationships? Writers don’t like seeing the characters in happy relationships, case and point, Korra and Mako. I don’t really care about them, I just found it wierd spending the whole first season building up their relationship just to break them up in the second season. It’s a problem with a lot of writers, they’d rather break a couple up and get them back together again by the end, than let them be in a happy and healthy relationships. Same said for the friendships. I’m scared to discover the movie starts with “I haven’t talked to Zuko in years because A B C happened”.

Another thing, is there going to be an arc for every single character? If so, how are they going to accomplish that in 2 hours? I love love love how every single character in ATLA gets an amazing personal arc, and well, if they’re going to to the same in the movie, how will that work? Or will some of the characters get a backseat and become not as significant. Again, I have to bring up an example from LoK. You can’t say Mako and Bolin’s parts in the last seasons were as important as the rest of the characters’. Again, I personally don’t care about those characters, so I don’t have a problem with it, but the balance between the characters in ATLA is what makes it superior to LoK, so I’m sure if they decide to make Sokka’s (for example) journey less significant than others’, it would make a lot of people angry.

Anyway, these are just my thoughts. Of course I want to see more content from the Avatar universe, especially the gaang, but I’m just scarred from LoK and not sure I can handle them ruining characters even more.

Can we just have 2 hours of the gaang on vacation on ember island just getting in all kinds of shenanigans?

Yandere! Team Korra Headcanons

Wishing my friend a happy birthday! <3 [Even though he's kind of a loser]

You met Korra first, since she was the Avatar. You were smitten with her, but thought she was out of your league, so you didn't pursue

The next person you met was Bolin and he was sweet and quick to sweep you off your feet

You slowly become part of Team Avatar. You fit in well and Bolin makes it easier for you to fit in

When learning you are not a bender, Asami is quick to teach you how to defend yourself. Besides, you're dating boys who are brothers

You become very close and anyone can see it. In fact, Bolin becomes a little jealous and you both get into a fight

"Well, maybe we should break up!"

"Fine!"

"Fine!" And then you leave, letting your words really sink into Bolin's mind. He knows he fucked up

You do eventually make up again, but you don't want to date him again

Mako didn't like you for a while, for hurting his brother's feelings, but once he spends some one on one time with you, a thought in the back of his mind appears. You were out of Bolin's league and maybe it was for the best you both broke up... Besides, he could probably treat you better anyway

He tries to get you to like him, even though he knows it's wrong

Bolin's not happy about it, but seeing you happy makes him all giddy and happy, so he let's go of his resentment. Though, he's still protective over you, so if his brother breaks your heart, he'll beat him up

Asami finds out you're dating Mako, even though you tried to hide it, because they used to date, but she seems okay with it-

Well, that's not true. You suspect she's jealous- But not because you're dating him, but because he's dating you?

She'll bring up bad things he did when she was dating him

"I just want you to have the best, because that's what you deserve and while he is my friend even after everything, I still think you deserve better"

Girl was out to ruin your relationship from the beginning

Though, Mako being Mako, he does end up fucking up the relationship on accident

He tried to apologize, but you couldn't forgive him

You found comfort in Asami, just like she wanted

You avoid dating her for a while, in fear of being a 'Homie hopper'

When you and Mako get back on better terms, you talk about it with him

He seemed okay with it, though he'd rather you be single, but he knows Asami, so you'll still be close to him, even if you date Asami

Korra was always sweet to you, but never anything that made you think she felt something special about you

You two are friends, but don't date, not until later, when she starts doubting her abilities

You're there for her and she gains an emotional attachment to you

She realizes she's in love with you, but you're dating Asami

Asami has been so good to her, just like you, so she couldn't betray Asami like that

Bolin and Korra are much more laid back and more willing to let you do as you please

You can get away with a lot more with them. Especially Bolin

Asami and Mako are stricter and restrict what you can and can't do

Mako is the strictest and you can't get anything past him

Asami wants you to like her and when realizing you get along better with Korra and Bolin, she tries to be more laid back

Though, when Korra gets hurt, you try and stay with her

She tells you no- The world needs protector, especially since she can't do it. She also doesn't want you seeing her like this. She feels weak and helpless

Korra is the only one who hides her feelings for you

The only way you find out is because she accidentally lets it slip to Asami

Asami is surprisingly open to the idea of a throuple

She knows that she can't always protect you, but Korra can. You'd always be safe if you were with Korra

They try and make you seem weaker than you are, because they all want to protect you

They know that something is wrong with them and with each other, but they find peace in that they all feel the same way for you. They love you, so who cares if other people don't understand- They do.
