Legend of Korra: finale spoilers

[Dmatix]

Wow, this episode delivered on every front. Best of the season so far. It seems Amon does indeed have a scientific bend (heh) to him. We were also right about Tenzin and Lin.

Some random notes:

-Cabbage Corps: Hell yes.
-The announcer in the fight is the best.
- Amon is a total badass. So is Lieutenant. And Lin. And pretty much everyone who fought in this episode.
- Those power gloves make me think those blueprints in Amon's room are indeed for power armor.
-Aang looked awesome in that flashback.
- The facial expressions are hilarious.

More of this, please.

Good episode, best friend. I guess the equalists' plans are to build Iron Man replica power suits. Can't fault them there.

I want to know what merchandise Cabbage Corp produces; that it's awesome is a given.

I think the commercial said it was a technology corporation. Maybe they are in cahoots with Amon, to avenge all the cabbages Aang destroyed.

This needs to happen.

[BewareOfNerd]

They produce small, affordable cars.

Amazing awesome episode for pretty much all the reasons people have said already. However did you notice Tarlok? Dude doesn't just want to kill Amon, he wants to start a war. The only reason he changed his vote was because they mentioned the possible eminent conflict. This may be obvious but I think he's a Bending Supremacist. He is the fascist Germany to Amon's Soviet Russia. He's just banking that he can win.

I think he changed his vote because it allowed him to completely eschew responsibility.

I do find it funny how the other three members are basically lemmings doing whatever he suggests though.

Just like real politics!

Also, am i the only one here who thinks that the Wolf-bats, despite being douches, know how to make a really good entrance? That was some menacing music right there.

[kaoticAntagonist]

That was some wrestler shit right there.

[ArmsAreLoud]

I'm interested to see if the lead Wolfbat (what's his face the fabulous one) has any more relevance after this. The best thing I can think of is him realizing just how fucking terrible it is to not have powers in this world and joining with the Equalists but that seems really far fetched considering his character.

[kaoticAntagonist]

Tahno.

He'll end up like Jet, disappear for a while, and then die. I think.

[Quirk]

Guys: We might have the best thing in the history of things that are the best things. Look at these guys in these scenes.





Remind you of anyone?

EDIT: Psst they look like John and Jade.

[ArmsAreLoud]

I really don't see it. Glasses are the same style but that's pretty much it. If I hadn't already read the posts in the Cameo thread I would have no idea what you're talking about.

John and Jade are often portrayed as Asian + boy with square glasses and girl with gigantic coke bottle glasses in the same scene = really awesome cameo or one hell of a coincidence. Which is also awesome.

This is my thought process.

[Triangle Man]

I sort of see what you're talking about here, Quirk!

Anyways, now it's time for Avatar, Legend of Korra Episode 6!

Or...

'Triguy records himself spazzing out while watching an awesome cartoon and nobody else cares.'

Okay, let's fly!

Still like the first okay this is just getting redundant.

So I did hear this was sort of a second part to the last episode, right?

Let's see how this goes.

So do they win or not?

That is a nice training centre.

They really don't like that guy?

Cabbage Corp.

CABBAGE CORP!

LOL!!!

Wait, it's a tech company?

Huh.

They seem confident and on top of the...

Oh shit, it's that guy. Again. Holy Shit.

How did he just...jam the airwaves like that?

That was a bit of an ominous threat.

SHE CAN GO WHERE SHE WANTS, MO-FO!!!

Wat? Those two agree with one another? What the hell is going on?

He's...just about right on this, maybe?

Go Mako Go. Let's do it!

Bolin plays it to the hilt.

DON'T LET US HAVE FUN AND THE BAD GUY WINS!!!

Wat?

The hardass is the one pushing for this?

And she slagged wise old Tenzen?

Sweet!

She really does take after her grandmother, right?

Metalbenders are awesome, right?

Biefong is confident and awesome.

Tenzen gets no respect, doesn't he?

Love the interaction between those two, right?

Lin is such a hardass.

And here we have Korra engaging in crackshipping and quite possibly stumbling across a part of Tenzen and Lin's pasts.

Oh hell yes I am LOLing!

And thus the other part of that story is revealed.

Also, Lin tried to have Pam thrown in jail after she stole Tenzen away from her. I need to let that sink in for a second.

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Oh wow.

Oh man.

Okay, let's keep the episode going.

This is the best scene and I am loling so hard.

Korra is really enjoying tormenting him, right?

Hey, it's shock-man!

Wait, so he planned for this?

And what are those boxes?

So intense!

Police is out in full force tonight!

Does Lin have scars on her cheek at?

Wow, is this the closest we've seen to Lin's soft side?

I love that announcer guy. H is good at announcing.

Bolin is crazy pep-talking the ferret.

Hey, it's those guys Quirk pointed out! Yay!

I CAN'T HEAR YOU PEOPLE!!!

Love squares suck!

Reminds me of the start of a hockey game a bit.

I want to punch that guy in the face and what is this stupid amount of showboating?

Whatevz.

I want to punch that guy in the face.

IT'S PARTY TIME!

These guys are good.

This is a sweet match right there.

WHY THEY DON'T GET NO FOULS!!!

THEY PAID OFF THE OFFICIALS?!

Tenzen is really getting into the game, right?

In this case, 'icing' means 'create ice on the battlefield'.

Shit, they're fucked.

Oh man.

GO MAKO GO!!!

MY MIND IS FULL OF FUCK!

So who wants them to loose?

So They have to play by the rules and beat their cheating? Sweet!

I SAW A MATRIX REFERENCE!!!

So Korra gets the final fight here?

Oh Fuck Yes.

ONE ON ONE LET'S GO BABY!

Wow, did they just do that twice? That was wonderful.

Oh so wonderful.

Wow, he's pretty pissed off right now, right?

And it occurs to me that Korra has never entered the Avatar State. SPECIAL REINCARNATION CYCLE GO!

Even the announce knows that shit is going down, right?

That's just fucking cheap, right?

Tenzen is still getting into the game...fuck, looks like they lost it in the very end. That sucks.

You know, as soon as he said 'anybody else want to scrap with the champs', I went 'you shouldn't tempt fate like this'.

I can see where this is going.

OH SHIT THEY'RE IN THE AUDIENCE FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!

EVERYBODY PANIC AND RUN!!!

And then Tenzen saw what was going on.

ELECTROSHOCKER!!!

SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!

Wow, things just go really bad really fast!

HEY IT'S SHOCKY GUY AGAIN AND WATER IS A WET CONDUCTOR, RIGHT?!

I love how the announcer guy just rolls with the punches even as everything goes to shit. He does his job until the very end...

Ah-hahahaha!!!!

They're toast...oh so very much toast.

So can these guys beat down Amon? Possibly not.

Amon is pretty damn awesome.

So he made due on his threat in the end, right?

Right?

Right?

Yeah, so more support for the 'he plays mind games' theory, right?

And he won.

He completely and utterly won.

Wait, is she having flashbacks to when Aang was still alive?

Will this provide more clues to this mystery?

Oh shit.

What a preachy asshole...and he's entirely right, in the end.

At least on this point...you know, about those guys being assholes.

How long has this been going on for?

Never trust a revolutionary man/woman.

Yep...technology is how they manage to gain their advantage/level playing field.

This guy is pretty damn crazy on many levels.

And then they got the fuck out of there. Good for them.

And this is the part where shit gets real, right?

OH MY GOD THEY BLEW UP THE ARENA!!!

ICE ICE BABY!!!

Wait, she's going to fight him a second time?

And then Lin saved her life like MOTHERFUCKING SPIDER-MAN!!!

OH HELL YES THE ACTION IN THIS EPISODE IS SO AWESOME!

And then Mr. Shocky went down like a bad internet connection.

And then some other guys got burned.

Except for Amon, he's awesome like that.

Another day, Korra. Another day.

And then they fought some...oh, hey there Mr. Shocky.

Anyways, and then they fought some of Amon's men.

KORRA VS. MR. SHOCKY!!!

Lin is fucking awesome.

Best Miniboss fight. Does Mr. Shocky have a name yet?

So Lin will have to give up the chase, right?

And save Korra like she's fucking Spider-Man...again.

And it ended with utter defeat, in the end.

And this is where the storyline really gets intense, right?

Well, this was a great episode. Looks like the game isn't going to be the same from now on, right?

[Zombiitwo]

What I got from this episode:

• Lin is the world's biggest badass, I mean FUCKING SERIOUSLY, THAT SHIT WAS OFF-THE-WALL INSANE HOLY FUCK
• Lieutenant is pretty fucking sweet, and Amon simply gives negative fucks about Korra.
• Holy fuck. Lin. Jesus FUCK.

Also here's a bigger version of those two if anyone wants it:

[ArmsAreLoud]

Something that occurred to me: Rather than making the logical assumption that Tahno was bribing the ref, the Ferrets just make a vague "someone wants us to lose".

What are the odds that the ref was being (unwittingly) paid off by the Equalists so that Amon could take the bending from the guy who beat Korra?

I doubt the Wolfbats would risk cheating if they didn't know for sure that the ref would be on their side.

I've been trying to make an animated 80x80 avatar out of this scene:

but holy shit it's difficult

[BewareOfNerd]

Amon is physically incapable of giving a fuck.

[ArmsAreLoud]

He gave all of his fucks to his cause, there are no fucks left to be given.

God I hope his story is legit. I do not want a repeat of Ghetsis.

[Zombiitwo]

I HAVE SUCCEEDED



I am the greatest

[Bloddyredcommie]

I HAVE SUCCEEDED



I am the greatest

This thing is true, I can't stop watching.

[PrincessPartyPants]

Wait you guys I got it: Amon is Lord English, obviously.

snip

That was like my favorite scene. The directing was superb, the slowing down really captured the tensity of the situation. And now I have it as gif, thank you.

[Zombiitwo]

I agree, it was my favorite scene as well. It was just so great, one of those perfect "oh shit" moments, not to mention how much of a badass that woman is.

[BewareOfNerd]

Another thing I just realized: Glass is sand that's been melted together and re-solidified. Sand is earth. Therefore, an earthbender could theoretically break a window and bend the pointy shards of broken glass at people.

Shame they'd never do that on a kids' show.
