The Legend of Korra - Book 2: Spirits

 Spoiler

More than a little disappointed how Korra essentially getting eaten by a Spirit didn't send her to the Spirit World, but instead sparked an amnesia plotline. Those are always the worst, in my opinion. In TV, in movies, in games, no matter where they are they're usually pretty annoying and bad, at least in my experience.

I'm more surprised at the fact that I didn't catch on very quickly to Varrick than the part about him being in on the evil. I should have caught on, I'm usually decent at predicting that kind of stuff. Now I wouldn't be surprised if in the end he was actually working for the North, or at least attempting prolong the war as much as possible so he can make money off of his new acquisition (definitely intentionally sparked it, if nothing else).

We're now 6 episodes in and not much interesting has happened. The Water Tribe Civil War isn't really all that great. I'm really just waiting for the Spirit Journey/ies to begin. Wish it would happen sooner, but I won't be surprised if the amnesia plotline is solved through a journey to the Spirit World. Amnesia storylines typically suck, but if it gets us to the Spirit World I'm all for it this time, even if everything leading up to it sucks. The fact that Korra landed at what seems to be the Roku Fire Temple makes me think it will be.

I hope they plan to play the entire season and don't screw us half way through with a "mid-season" finale, considering if they do the first half of this half season is pretty awful.
