action

Cosplayer as protagonist Korra, 2016

In the world of Avatar some people have the power to tame one of the four elements , i.e. to shape it according to their will (in the English original the term to bend - bending is used instead of taming). Only one person known as the Avatar can tame all four elements. He or she has to keep the balance between the four tamer peoples in balance.

The series takes place around 70 years after the end of Avatar: The Last Airbender . The former Fire Nation colonies in the Earth Kingdom have become an empire in their own right, the United Republic of Nations , through the efforts of Avatar Aang and Fire Lord Zuko, with much of the action taking place in the capital, Republika .

The story is summarized at the beginning of each episode by an omniscient narrator in sensational news style.

Book 1: Air

The hot-headed and headstrong Korra is the main character of the series and the next incarnation of the Avatar after Aang. She originally comes from the Southern Water Tribe and travels to Republika at the beginning of the series to learn to tame the fourth element of air after water, earth and fire. There the Equalists want to start a revolution under the leadership of the mysterious mask wearer Amon. Amon propagates that taming is unnatural and that all tamers have to be deprived of this ability in order to create equality among people. Terrifyingly, it has the power to forever steal a tamer of his strength. Besides the avatar, he is the only person in the world with this ability. His subordinates use chi blockades to temporarily deprive their opponents of taming. Korra learns airbending from Tenzin, the youngest child of Aang and Katara and Master of the Air Temple of Republika , in the first season . She made her first contacts in the big city with the brothers Mako and Bolin, who she accepted into her professional tamer team "fire ferrets" - named after Bolin's tame red pet. In the trend sport of professional taming , tamers compete against each other in teams of three and try to shoot themselves from a platform using earth, water and fire. The air element is not represented in this sport, as Aang's descendants are the only airbenders in the world. Asami also quickly joins the “Team Avatar”, whom Mako met through a collision with her scooter. Her father is Hiroshi Sato, head of "Future Industries" and inventor of the Satomobil, the car of the Avatar world. This makes him the most powerful industrialist in the Republic. He later plays a multi-layered role in the story, while Asami takes over "Future Industries" and can thus provide the Avatar team with all-round technical support.

Asami is impressed by Mako's sporting fairness and he by her beauty and friendliness. The two become a couple, which Korra easily displeases. The group's game performance suffers from this at times. Through her activity as a sportswoman, Korra is drawn into the revolution, while Bolin is kidnapped as an equalist. She joins a task force of City Council Tarrlok, which is supposed to fight the equalists . But when she realizes that Tarrlok is only interested in maintaining power, she tries to stop the equalists with the help of Bolin, Mako and Asami. Tarrlok warns them not to get in his way. When Korra tries to prevent him from arresting a few civilians, he arrests all three of Korra's friends. A fight ensues in the course of which Tarrlok overpowers and kidnaps Korra using bloodbending. Bloodbending is a variant of waterbending, in which the tamer controls the blood of people and can control them like marionettes. Shortly thereafter, Tarrlok is surprised by the equalist leader Amon. This takes Tarrlok's ability to tame and locks him up. Meanwhile Korra manages to escape. Soon there is a final encounter with Amon, at the climax of which Amon Korra apparently withdraws her taming abilities forever. It turns out that Amon Tarrlok is Noatak's missing brother. Deprived of her abilities, Korra develops the ability to control air in an act of desperation and thus saves her friends from Amon. He escapes and releases his brother, who makes him believe that he is on Noatak's side. They flee together in a boat. While driving, Tarrlok blows up the boat with him and Noatak. Korra falls into deep depression due to the loss of her other skills. She learns that sometimes you have to fall deep in order to develop further. Through this realization she attains spiritual unity with the previous Avatars. Aang gives her her abilities back through energy benders. Now she can restore the tamer powers to all of Amon's victims and finally get into the avatar state, in which her tamer abilities are many times stronger. She also gets together with her crush Mako, who - torn between Asami and Korra - decides for her for the first time.

Book 2: Ghosts

Six months after defeating the Equalists, the Avatar is traveling with his friends to the Southern Water Tribe when suddenly a so-called Dark Spirit appears and attacks them. Tenzin's techniques against the mind fail. It is only thanks to Unalaq, the younger brother of Korra's father Tonraq, that the ghost can be stopped. Unalaq tells her that in his opinion the gates between the material world and the spirit world, so-called spirit gates, should always be open; that humans and spirits should live together in harmony in the same world. Korra then chooses him as a spiritual mentor. Tenzin, seriously offended, travels to the Southern Air Temple with his wife Pema, his children Jinora, Ikki, Meelo and Rohan and his siblings Kya and Bumi. Meanwhile, Korra travels to the South Pole to open the southern ghost portal. She is accompanied by her friends Mako and Bolin as well as Unalaq, and his children, the dizygotic twins Desna and Eska. Both are rational in an involuntarily weird way, and the extremely dominant girl of the two, Eska, condemns Bolin to a relationship with her, which he only likes for a very short time. However, the opening of the portal creates a conflict: Troops of the Northern Water Tribe under Unalaq have marched into the south. He cites the danger of the dark spirits as another reason to unite the tribes. The southern tribe doesn't like that at all, however, as the north acts like an occupying power. A civil war is looming, which Korra is trying to prevent. But she soon finds out that Unalaq only used her to conquer the south. It comes to light that Unalaq secretly lured her father into a trap so that he could be banished.

This gives Unalaq a free hand to inconspicuously fuel the conflict as the new leader of the northern tribe. The trap was also used to anger the spirits so that Unalaq could act as a savior. Korra's father Tonraq and the crazy genius Varrick, also from the South Water Tribe, devise a plan to kidnap Unalaq and use it to cut off the head of the Northern Tribe. Korra firmly believes that Unalaq has only good intentions and thwarts the plan. Tonraq, Varrick and their people are convicted of traitors in court. Unalaq, quite the noble arbitrator, convinces the judge not to have her killed, and the sentence is reduced to prison. Korra, Mako and Asami plan to free Tonraq with Varrick, who managed to go into hiding. But they run into Unalaq, who is now dropping his mask. Korra and her friends return to the Republic, where she asks the newly elected President Raiko in vain for military aid for her tribe. She then travels to the Fire Nation, where she hopes to finally find support for a military operation against Unalaq. She also meets Avatar Aang's old friend Fire Lord Zuko. On the way there, she is attacked by a dark ghost, which steals her memories. Without knowing who she is, she goes into a deep trance in which she comes into contact with her avatar predecessors. There she meets the first avatar named Wan, who tells her his story: He became the first avatar to stop the dark spirit Vaatu, the proverbial embodiment of darkness. In addition, he merges with the light spirit Raava. It is Vaatu's counterpart and neither of them can exist without the other. Only through the fusion of Raava the light spirit with a person does what the viewer knows as an avatar emerges. During Harmonic Convergence (a planetary conjunction), Wan includes the dark Vaatu in the spirit world in the tree of time. While Korra finds himself again and gets to know the beginnings of the avatar, and the conflict between the water tribes continues to smolder in the background, the plot shifts more towards Republika. As a dewy police investigator, Mako finds evidence that the water tribes are being played off against each other. But nobody takes him seriously because he's the new guy, and you allow yourself jokes with him. Korra plans to work with Fire Nation Forces Commander, Iro, to subvert the authority of the President of the Republic and secretly come to the aid of the Southern Water Tribe. Mako wants to avoid an escalation of the conflict and betrays Korra. In anger, she confronts him and frustrated, he ends the relationship.

Meanwhile, Varrick is leveraging Bolin's notoriety as a professional tamer and his natural recklessness to build him up as the star of a number of fast-paced, action-packed punk films. The idea behind it is to portray Unalaq as a villain in the films and thus create a mood for a military intervention against him. Financially this is not a problem for him, as he is a big animal in the Republic, also strengthened by his inventions, his business acumen that is completely free of morals, with which he almost starts a war, his charisma and above all thanks to his loyal, devoted, extremely intelligent and apparently also trained in combat techniques assistant Shu Li. Later it is revealed that Unalaq Korra's father deliberately ran into a conflict with bandits, which angered the spirits, as a sacred forest would inevitably be damaged. He convinces Korra that opening the portal would soothe the spirits. In truth, the opening is supposed to allow him to unite with Vaatu to become the first Dark Avatar . The plan works. Unalaq absorbs Vaatu and mutates into the extremely powerful creature UnaVaatu and wants to plunge the earth into ten thousand years of darkness. With the help of Mako, Bolin, as well as Tenzin and his family, the twins Desna and Eska, who have since come to their understanding, and the light spirit Raava, Korra succeeds in entering a ghostly and gigantic avatar state. As a colossal ghost avatar, she fights UnaVaatu and defeats him by dissolving him into light energy. Unalaq dies and Vaatu returns to the spirit world, deadly weakened. He cannot have died because Raava continues to exist and reunites with Korra to form the avatar. After the fight, Korra apologizes to the twins for indirectly murdering their father, who because of their cool, rational demeanor hardly minds that. Bolin can finally break away from Eska, but only because after Unalaq's death she and her brother take over the leadership of the Northern Water Tribe. Korra ends her relationship with Mako for good. She publicly announces that she is leaving the two gates to the spirit world in the south and north open because she believes that humans and spirits must learn to get along with one another. She promises to help them with this; also proclaims that this is the beginning of a new era. During the fight against Unalaq and Vaatu, the memory was separated from the previous avatars that Raava kept within himself, making Korra the last avatar of the old cycle and the first of the new cycle.

Book 3: Change

Two weeks after the Harmonic Convergence, new airbenders are suddenly appearing across the Earth Kingdom; a side effect of harmonic convergence. Together with Tenzin and her friends, Korra sets out to the Earth Kingdom to recruit the airbenders as citizens of a new nation of air nomads. This is very important to Tenzin, but unfortunately it bears no relation to his ability to get people excited about the lifestyle of the air nomads. Only a joint show with the help of the stage-tested Bolin can more people get trained in airbending. At the same time, a dangerous anarchist named Zaheer manages to break out of his prison with the newly acquired ability to control air. He promptly frees his old allies Ghazan, Ming-Hua and his partner P'Li from other high-security prisons that Zuko and Aang had specially built for them in secret so that they would languish there for life. Zaheer reduces her imprisonment to just thirteen years. They all have special skills, such as lava bending or firing a beam of heat from a chakra-like third eye on the forehead, an ability also mastered by a bounty hunter in the first Avatar series who hunted aang at Prince Zuko's instructions . Together they want to capture the avatar in order to create an era without world rulers and to achieve true freedom.

Meanwhile, Team Avatar's search for new possible airbenders leads to the metal city of Zaofu, the home of the metal tamer clan, which is ruled by Lin Beifong's sister Suyin and her family. The kidnapping of the Avatar by Zaheer and his group fails and they have to flee. Soon afterwards, Zaheer and appendix murder the Earth Queen Hou-Ting. With this they believe they are one step closer to the goal of their secret organization - the Red Lotus . The red lotus had split off from the white lotus because, in their opinion, the latter lost sight of its real goal. The Earth Kingdom is falling into chaos. In addition, Zaheer takes almost all airbenders hostage, which he wants to exchange for Korra. In the decisive battle, Zaheer's allies die, but he is dangerously close to his goal of killing the Avatar while in the Avatar state, so that no Avatar would be reborn. However, he is overwhelmed by the airbenders under the guidance of Tenzin's eldest daughter Jinora. Two weeks later everyone watches Jinora's ceremony as she is named master airbender, including Korra, weakened by toxic metal, in a wheelchair. Tenzin proclaims that the new Air Nomads will follow in Korra's footsteps and maintain balance in the world during her ailment.

Book 4: Balance

After the events of the final battle with Zaheer, Korra is severely impaired for a long time. As a nameless tamer-gladiator she does more badly than well. In addition, she often appears as an angry avatar of her own person, from which she is sometimes even attacked. She has lost her strength and the ability to put herself into the Avatar state. Even three years later, she cannot bring herself to return to the Republic, believing that she can no longer fulfill her duties as an Avatar.

A ghost leads her to the swamp, where she meets Toph, Aang's old friend and earthbending teacher, who helps Korra with a lot of grumbling to regain strength. Tenzin's children Jinora, Ikki and Meelo are sent to look for Korra. They find Korra and tell her the world still needs her. Because now Kuvira, a city guard from Zaofu, is busy stabilizing the Earth Kingdom, which was sunk in chaos after the assassination attempt on the Earth Queen. However, Kuvira has her own plans: She builds an army, wraps Bolin with promises - due to his good contacts with the leadership level Republikas and the Avatar - and lets the ingeniously crazy Varrick develop new weapon technologies for her. On the day of his coronation, she deposed the new earth king Wu, to whom Mako is now subordinate as a bodyguard on the orders of President Raiko, and proclaimed a new earth empire, with her as ruler. Your goal is to unite the entire earth continent into one empire.

In the course of the plot, Kuvira builds a super weapon, among other things with Varrick's involuntary help, and attacks the Republic with it. But Korra and the Avatar team can stop Kuvira with the support of the new air nation. In the end, Korra and Asami walk through the gate to the spirit world, which was created by the explosion of the super weapon powered by spirit energy, to simply take a vacation there. In the last scene you can see the two hands moving towards the ghost portal, looking into each other's eyes until the light of the portal outshines everything.

production

At Comic-Con 2010 it was first announced that Nickelodeon was working on a sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender. Originally planned as a twelve-episode mini-series, The Legend of Korra was extended by another fourteen episodes in March 2011. In order not to have too long a break between the broadcast of the two “books”, the start of the series was postponed from October 2011 to mid-2012. While the first book bears the title Air , the second book is called Spirits and thus for the first time has no element in the title. The broadcasting of Spirits began in the US on 13 September 2013. In July 2012, ordered Nickelodeon 26 more episodes that will form the "books" three and four. After broadcasting the 52 episodes, the series should end.

All of the episodes of the first “book” were written by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. Directed by two former employees of the original series, Joaquim Dos Santos and Ki Hyun Ryu. For the production of the following “books” the production team has been greatly enlarged. Since the production of an episode takes between ten and twelve months, the production phases overlap strongly. The first storyboards for Book 4 were developed in July 2013, while the last episodes of Book 2 were not yet fully animated.

On November 21, 2012 it was announced that the third book would be titled Change .

In the last scene of the series finale, a romantic relationship between the female characters Korra and Asami is implied, which was later confirmed accordingly by the producers and continued in the comics. Both characters had also previously had mixed-sex romantic relationships. The scene attracted attention beyond the series' fan base and was described by many as the first depiction of a lesbian or bisexual partnership in a western cartoon series (on Nickelodeon), which also has children as a target group.
