Nickelodeon’s Avatar: The Last Airbender released on Netflix last weekend, the longstanding debate about its sequel series has reemerged. Taking place 70 years after the conclusion of The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra tells the story of Aang’s successor, 17-year-old Korra from the Southern Water Tribe. While many fans love each show and Avatar equally, others are not convinced Korra’s story was the appropriate choice for a follow-up series.
Imagine an alternate Universe where 4 seasons of this dropped instead of Korra. Yeah.. I'd wanna live there. pic.twitter.com/VCwYhRnAVp

Personally, as a fan of Avatar they showed of shown Aang, Katara, Sokka, Zuko, and Toph all grown up. The show runners truly missed out on a great opportunity. They skipped an entire generation. This should have done it like how Naruto series went into Boruto series. We all got to see the characters we love in their adult stages. This would be equivalent of Minato generation transitioning to Boruto generation. We would all be lost and confused.
Korra is amazing character though and definitely is the strongest Avatar of all time but we never got to see Aang in adult form. He was just 12 year old kid that saved the world in less than a year. It would have been nice to see the characters we fell in love with in their adult stages. Korra trials and tribulations was much harder than Aang. The Legend of Korra is a phenomenal show just wish it was phase 3 instead of phase 2.
Aang had it easy compared to Korra. Aang had to deal with one threat and had little to no personal relationships with his own team to make things awkward. You love Aang for nostalgia and travel factor. Korra had to deal with real loss so many times as well as acceptance

Honestly, what else could Aang and the gang have done? They were literally responsible for the entirety of the world Korra lives in. They were already the best they could be. The story would've been dry and uninspiring

reminders:
-korra is a great show
-korra and aang had different struggles
-comparing korra to aang as avatars is stupid
-korra is a great avatar
-bitches have raging nostalgia boners for ATLA that clouds their judgement of korra

Korra's story destroyed the worldbuilding of Avatar and used LGBT relationships to shield criticism and you know it
