The Legend of Korra Season Finale Recap. Ive been sitting here wracking my brain trying to come up with a good word to describe this seasons finale. Pretty much everything I found seemed too clich. Stream Talking Dead Season 6 Episode 3. Legend Of Korra Season 3 Finale' title='Legend Of Korra Season 3 Finale' />Find Where to Watch Full Episodes of The Legend Of Korra. Come read the thrilling The Legend of Korra Season 3 Finale Recap. Much like book two, I think there were a lot of great ideas in Legend of Korra Book 3 Change. In the Legend Of Korra season 3 finale we learned. Then I ran across the Malay word sayang. Accurate depiction of the author Korra fans by the finales end. The word sayang is a complex word, with multiple meanings depending on how you say it or who you say it to. Literal translations say it means both dear and pity.

It can also be used to say something as scathing as what a waste. It is a single word used to express sorrow, pity, love, and affection. Sayang seems like the perfect way to describe the Legend of Korras enthralling, and heartbreaking season finale. Also Yall know Forbes is picking on Nick for fumbling the show this season, rightTeam Avatar are well on their way to the Northern Air Temple, and everyone seems to have some kind of plan. The only problem is that none of them will work, and the only option left is for Korra to hand herself over. The mood is grim, only lightened rather awkwardly by Bolins bird call scheme, and later on a small cut away to Naga and Pabu being cute. I get why these were put here, because you need something to lighten the moo but, in action, these scenes come across painfully forced and frankly felt out of place. This scene teases us with a bit of back story. Apparently, Zaheer saved a young Pli from becoming a warlords killing machine. Zaheer promises her that after today there will be No more prisons. No more running. Its a line that is spoken with such a genuine gravitas that it comes across foreboding. Again, Im reminded that we so rarely see villains like this in media. Pli and Zaheer are authentically tender to one another in this scene and how often do you get to see that in a villain and his cohorts Can I just say their height difference is really adorableMutual respect from a leader to his followers is rare in a villain. Zaheer could absolutely be a great guy. Hes the embodiment of what an airbender should be, but his interpretations are all kinds wrong. You see this sort of conviction all the time from people of our own world. Zaheer is a stoic reminder that no matter how idealistic the message, there will always be someone capable of finding madness in the brightest places. Korra turns herself over to Zaheer, trading her glider for a pair of platinum chains. As shes being lead away we find out that the airbenders being collected were actually a clever trick of Ming Was waterbending AND TENZIN IS ALIVE YAY. Waterbending for healing, sport and puppetry. The trick exposed that Korra is NOT going to hand herself over without a fight. Its good that they have Korra in chains at this point, because otherwise I dont think it would have been a fair fight for Zaheer or Pli. Even with her hands and feet bound Korra proves a fairly formidable opponent for Zaheer. He almost gets away with it until Korras dad shows up, and then we get the best fatherdaughter fighting team up EVER. Korra and Tonraq are a ridiculously good team, taking shots and giving each other room at the right moments to take down their opponent. Pro. Tip Dont piss off the Avatars dad. Lin and Su. Yin arent far away, but they and their metalbending buddies are pinned down by Pli. Throughout this scene its easy to see Lin and Su are absolutely masters of their forms. The Beifong sisters are as good a team as Korra and Tonraq, but Plis combustion abilities hold off the metalbenders almost too easily. With no where else to go, Lin makes a stupid move and a very sweet gesture and plays as a distraction keeping Pli occupied so Su can take her out. And holy CRAP Su. Yin does it masterfully, in a move that made pretty much every viewer gasp. Well, some of us gasped, most of us cursed loudly. Just like that Pli is gone, and Zaheer is surrounded. Plis fridging death provides just the motivation Zaheer needs to toss Tonraq over a cliff, hold the Beifongs off and pin Korra down. His prize thrown over his shoulder, but his escape vehicle drifting aimlessly in the sky Zaheer seemingly has no where to go. He recites Guru Lahimas poem and falls right over the cliff edge AND THEN HE FREAKIN FLIES. Zaheer PSHOOOOOOFandom What the hell just happened So Its all about Plis death. Zaheers love for her tied him to his earthly plain, much like Aang was kept from the Avatar State because he couldnt let Katara go. PLi was Zaheers earthly desire and once she was gone, Zaheer had nothing holding him down oh, the thinly veiled misogyny in this plot point. If airbenders werent at the temple so where the heck are they Oh, and then theres Ming Wa and Ghazan to contend with. After a brief altercation, Ghazan sets to work destroying the temple. Asami, Tenzin, and the bending brothers go from playing a literal game of The Floor Is Lava to Everything Is Lava He bends a short cut through the mountain to escape, but the other side is straight drop down. Faced with certain death by gravity or certain death by molten rock, Bolin rushes the oncoming lava flow and BENDS IT BACK BOLIN IS A LAVA BENDER YOU GUYSBy the time theyre picked up by Kai and flying to saftey. Team Avatar regroups and a new character, Kuvira voiced by Zelda Williams, yeah THAT Zelda Williams is introduced. My guess is this lady is coming back next season, or I hope she will at least Anyway, everyone is trying to figure out where the Red Lotus would be hiding Korra and the airbenders. Despite all their efforts to shut Kai down, the adults eventually have to listen to him because he knows where the airbenders are. The episode comes to a close as Korra, chained in mid air, finds out shes about to get poisoned. Amid the glowing stones of Korras cave prison, Zaheer delivers his Villainous Monologue a light sprinkling of Evil Gloating mixed with a healthy helping of the New Era Speech. Weve known that his contempt for world leaders includes the Avatar, but weve never really known why, or what the Red Lotus wants with Korra but Zaheer finally answers all questions. In order to bring the world into an era of true freedom, Korra has to die in the avatar state, breaking the line of rebirth, and destroying the Avatar forever. Korra will be the last Avatar. Garo Honoo No Kokuin Episode 1 Gogoanime. Especially when it comes to the poison induced hallucinations Korras subconscious subjects her to. Vaatu, Unalaq, and Amon show up in these hallucinations telling her that Zaheer is right, the world really doesnt need an Avatar anymore. Korra struggles to keep herself out of the Avatar State, but she can only hold it back for so long. When she finally does go all glowy, her rage and abilities quickly make a mess of the Red Lotus plans. Her chains break in an effortless yank, and both Ghazan and Ming Wa are out of this fight with a single swipe. Really, this entire section makes one kind of wonder if these guys REALLY thought this through This is the AVATAR STATE were talking aboutSee these chains are platinum. Cant break em, right So we force her into the Avatar State and then kill the Avatar for good. Easy peasyI dont think you thought this through. Consider the fact that Zaheer and company almost did this to a five year old way back when and suddenly were all the more thankful Sokka saved Baby Korra. It almost seems like despite everything the Red Lotus has done, they didnt bother to take Korras age into account. The original plan was to murder a child Avatar, but a full grown Avatar is something much different. It proves to be a huge oversight. The only way Zaheer manages to escape the fury of Korras Avatar State is because he flies away. KORRA SMASH Throughout this battle Zaheer is barely hanging on, dancing just out of reach. Hes toying with Korra, trying to wear her out, but theres too many close calls to say hes doing much more than playing defense.
