Legend of Korra

 Predictions

Well here's a question: Why didn't they intend to kill Tenzin originally? I mean, sure, this appears to be where it will end, but when they originally captured Tenzin they said they weren't going to harm any of them. Why not? It may have just been a lie, but assuming it's not, it doesn't make much sense considering Tenzin essentially the leader of the New Air Nation. They're after world leaders...well Tenzin is definitely one of them at this point.

Also, why wouldn't they go after the harder to kill first? Take out the hardest first and the rest have no chance. The Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom are also the two only real powers in the world nation-wise. The Water Tribes are just that, tribes, and are divided. They're not really that formidable even after 100 years. The Air Nation basically doesn't exist (it consists of like 10-25 people) at this point (not enough to really be considered a nation right now). What's left? The Fire Nation. It's a logical assumption to think that the Fire Lord is their next target, as the Fire Lord is the most dangerous and most likely to ruin their plans. Also, if the Fire Lord is ever shown, I will laugh if she has Azula's voice actor like Iroh had Zuko's. Though it would kinda kill immersion for me considering Azula's role was played so well (and was batshit crazy).

It's a shame that Tenzin has a 50/50 chance of dying after kicking such major ass, though. To be honest he never really got a chance to shine. He usually got his ass kicked in an ambush, but in the most recent episode he really fought like a true master, even kicking Zaheer's ass. He would have won if his siblings could have held their own against the others.

I will note that my annoyance towards not saying the Queen is dead is tenfold after Kai and Bumi had their argument about potentially dying while on that ledge. I actually thought that all three of Aang's children might die, but realized that it'd be too much for what is technically still a kids' show.

I really hope that the Metal City (I forget the name) was a set up for having Toph in at some point. Especially now that we've had Zuko around. I hope that the finale has what remains of Old Team Avatar and the New Team Avatar fighting together, I think that would be amazing. We know that Toph, Zuko and Katara are all alive, although I don't know how well Katara would actually be able to fight at this point considering her S1E1 appearance. If I remember correctly we never heard anything of what happened to Sokka, Suki, Ty Lee, or Mai. All characters that could show up in the next book if they want some awesome nods to the original series.

Fair point. However I think the President would be a bigger threat to Zaheer and his plans than the Fire Lord, seeing Republic City is an alliance of sorts of all the nations, perhaps that was the reason they were planning to killing him before even getting to Korra.

I would love if the Fire Lord had a similar voice to Azula, such an amazing voice on a powerful leader could be nice, seeing most (if not all) of the other leaders end up wanting to fight Korra (Tenzin being an exception), and listening a voice like Azula being the voice of reason could make some great fan-irony.

Right now I have to big questions which I can't seem to find an answer for:

-Does anyone leads the White Lotus?

-What is the name of Book 4? Lotus?
