Honestly I am stoked for this. I am already writing out a Seven Havens fic just to get it out of my head, lol.
The whole premise of a shattered post-LoK world is so mineable, as is an actual White Lotus character, and I think my only bugaboo may be that Nisha and Pavi are allegedly very young (nine?). But I’m sure there will be an “old character” plot like Zuko/Iroh and Tenzin’s family.
…And I’m kinda disappointed how lukewarm the community reception is, especially on Reddit. It feels like I’m increasingly alienated from the fandom because I don’t worship the original over other entries.
The ages makes sense, it is still a kids show. Korra had too much romance and adult/teen drama for a typical kid.
I like the new angle, we’ve seen or read 5 stories about the “chosen one” who is celebrated basically everywhere they go. This new show sounds like it’ll be like Anti-Avatar Day everywhere they go.
The only think I’m disappointed in, is its another stain on Korra’s legacy for the community to shit on. The community calling her the “worst avatar” because she chose to break the avatar line has always been annoying. Can the world end after she died? or maybe she exploded which took out the world, I’d be okay with that.
Also Jinora had better be dead before the world ended or they better have a good explanation how she didn’t pull some spirit bs to “deus ex machina” save the world again.
