I think it's more the fact that she could bend without using her arms- so extremely precise and psychically manipulating things that would normally take significantly more effort than what she was exerting.

any half decent airbender can move like she moved >_> unimpressive

firebenders can breathe fire. not impressive.
toph being able to see with earth bending is the closest thing i can equate that woman's bending too: highly specialized and situational brought about for their unique requirements. Sure bae fong learned to use it as well, but she wanted to impress her mother, so her motivations weren't as impressive as "well, I'm blind, but Ima use earth bending as sonar / oh i have no arms! woe is me-- just kidding ima make water tentacles.
Look at Katara in the first series, she made tentacle arms out of water bending in the FIRST SEASON. Still not impressed, and that water bending octopus lady was, to me, the most underwhelming of the villains because of that.

Do you forget that Waterbending is the form of bending tied most to having arms?

I knew there was a reason! I knew it!
And I totally see it now too D:

wtp was with that ending. So... depressing.

This may be the best season so far, though it's still far from perfect. I wish we knew more about combustion girl. Also, I don't really understand how Lin had made up with her sister before.

Speaking of that, the whole metal city plot seemed quite pointless at first. I'm pretty sure it's all setup for next season wherein the apparent lovechild will take a role.

Legend of Korra - Razmos - 2014-08-23

Speaking of P'Li, she gave some backstory in that episode too right? about Zaheer saving her from being under the control of a Warlord when she was younger (who i'm assuming was Firelord Ozai). Is she related to the original Combustion Man? Daughter perhaps?

Polantaris Wrote:I must agree. All she ever did was waterbend well. Whoopdie do da day. You know who else did that? Katara. Hell, I want to say Katara did better. Remember the episode where she goes hunting for her mother's killer? She was bad ass as hell in that episode, and was 10x more dangerous than Ming Hua ever was this entire season.

I want to say that Tonraq was even more dangerous in the finale than Ming Hua ever was. Tonraq was mobile, quick, and using ice and water combinations expertly. Ming Hua was about 99.9% tentacles.

Yeah, you can say that, "Well she had no arms so she's a great waterbender," and you might be right...but that doesn't make a great villain. The fact that no one could beat her until the end is pretty ridiculous, honestly. She wasn't that powerful. She was definitely the weak link of the group.

Now that I think about it, season four kinda yells that it'll be in the fire nation, just look at it season one was almost all in republic city, season two was almost all the time in the water tribes and season three was all in the earth kingdom(with a touch of air nation).

Legend of Korra - kayeyearekay - 2014-08-25

i think, instead of Korra, id rather see the Zuko story (comic book) about the quest to find his mother, and etc, after Zuko becomes fire lord. overall-big-picture, this Korra stuff isnt as captivating, and the writers are taking a lot of liberties due to the Avatar "brand-name" I want this show to reach 10 and more seasons, not just become another Thundercats(1985).... you remember that show? way back when?

For those who have seen the finale, interesting read and video about the finale and Book 4: http://www.hypable.com/2014/08/25/the-legend-of-korra-season-3-co-creators-discuss-the-finale-and-the-future/

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

So it looks like Book 4 will be ready to come in January/February 2015, maybe earlier seeing this is the "confirmed" Australian schedule.

For those wondering about Zaheer being such an expert airbender, the creators stated that it was because he was great at martial arts, and since bending is an extension of the body, he was able to master it easily.

So I guess they're going to start showing it as soon as it's finished instead of waiting the typical break period?
