" Avatar State as a booster rocket is not to be used !" Tenzin complains . Like many 17 year olds , Korra is aching to leave the house .
So show. Away without looking back Roaring '20s inspired Republic City, the couple had two whisks for Korra book as much as an original story , ready to take in order to have the time . This story (so fans Beifong, drop savor the name ) it's hard to imagine circling back . What are the relationships are not missing .

It is more important than romance , where chaos and fear is a set piece . Unalaq: The only sensible option for her to say goodbye to Tenzin and Korra frazzles.
Even for people like Bolin and back -to- back episodes Asami , a comedy or auxiliary character does not have much time for . Varrick, moving images , a crazy businessman with a love subplot with their live vibe of '20s era setting and the plot is serious , a bit of levity in aggressive injects. scenes being sidetracked yet Bolin voice actor PJ Byrne is content to 're trying to feed , but it 's funny enough to justify it .

At the same time , Tenzin 's daughter Jinora old , wooden sculptures Prophet stumbles. Whatever effect the soul of the world will have to break through - and Ghostbusters us light in the sky filled with shooting jets of the past has taught , it can be the result - Jinora and must be tied to her ancestry .
Even more frightening is Unalaq large schemes . He said that back in touch with their spiritual side wants to put Southern Water Tribe , the Northern Water Tribe , given its fleet of warships , he is right by force . What to see in Korra 's eyes - I- is for sign-up look . Another staple College .
Odds and ends :
* Opening newsreel was elected the first President of the Republic, the city is mentioned . Democracy for all ! Political history buffs, go to town on it .
* " Looks like you had some car trouble . Cops are good here. " Mako, you 've CSI : Miami proud.
* Bumi and , Tenzin 's brother and sister , a great addition to the show , and the only hope for their families can be more dynamic . Tenzin did not have a great childhood , and we Katara , his mother 's eyes see .
* Other relatable emotions : Tonraq his face and scared as hell to see his daughter for dating Mako jabbing was priceless . Their relationship is thrown a loop , then Tonraq Mako knocking on the door ( or PEP can talk , he is not the father of his own , seeing as ) can be used .
* I rejoice at the appearance of GIF makers Penguins Dancing Otter could hear .
* Off line a nice little nod : Glacier Festival carnival Last Airbender. Water fight Aang, Appa stuffed prizes .
* Both episodes drawing each frame must be possible for boys and a radical style of camerawork , embrace . It reported a handheld camera , as it is loose . The Republic in empty technique works out of town so I do not know, but I appreciate the experience .
