And what about Bloodbending triad? I have never heared of them? Is it something official or just idea too?


It's a well thought out theory put together around facts this guy (and the fandom) knew.

Well it makes sense that there had to be full group of bloodbenders, but i have never seen or heared about Bloodbending triad and i doubt that Katara would be so stupid to teach this technique to anyone who she barely know. Maybe just Kya(her waterbending daughter). But it is actually doenst matter. It just came out to the world somehow, maybe just someone spied, studied and stuff like that. Fact is, its known thing. Now we mostly need to figure about, how they did without full moon :P Korra was so surprised when Tarrlock bloodbend her without moon. Katara would say that to Korra this fact, if she knows that....

That much we can be sure. How related? Probably he is Tarlokk's father. Which leaves me to wonder if the flashbacks have more to do with Tarrlok, and little to nothing to do with Amon?

Fantastic theory. I love how this allows for Aang to take someone's bending away in public, thus releasing the knowledge it's possible to the known world.

Remember when Korra tells Tenzin that Amon can take away people's bending? What does Tenzin say? "Impossible, only the Avatar has ever possessed that ability". Think about the way Tenzin says it, indicating that Aang probably did it more than just the one time we saw in ATLA.

Of course, considering how much everyone knows about the ending events in ATLA (especially one of the girls saying she read some stuff and asking about Zuko's Mom) it is probably common knowledge that is how the Avatar defeated the Fire Lord to end the 100 year war.
somethings supposed to go here?

Yes! Now this sounds like a great theory, one that seems to be rooted in facts and one that does not have that whole "Amon is related to Yakone/Tarlokk!" theory that I hate.

That guy really makes me feel like a noob... But also, no one has seen or heard anything to do wit Zuko. Does he play any part in this? The rest of the gaang is there and playing a part in the show except Zuko.

He's probably off doing some Fire Lord-ly duties or some such.

We are getting more info about Zuko in Avatar Comics - The Promise Trilogy. There are 2 parts out already and it looks like
Zuko is going to be bad again. But since there is a Zuko statue in Republic City and comics are before Republic City has grown, we can clearly say that Zuko will be good one again in Promise part 3. We should also get some info about Zuko's mom finally. The next thing is that, voice speaker of Zuko(Dante) confirmed that he is going to play someone in Korra again. And finally, if you play Korra game at nick.com, you can read something about Zuko too, he is traveling around the world, probably checking peace and balance/harmony in the entire world. Thats all we know about Zuko since ATLA end.

Wondering what happened to Azula? Did Aang took her bending? Or... well... she is dangerous for world, but they couldnt hold her locked up until she dies :D that would be embarrassing

This theory is wonderful and I'd be more than happy to watch it play out. Tarlock's extreme reaction to the Equalist would make so much more sense if this theory were true. A guy won't be able to make it into the council if he was irrational. There must be a deep rooted cause as to why Tarlock's being very irrational with the whole Equalist agenda. He must REALLY hate energy bending...

Two antagonists makes it twice as epic!

I didn't mind the line "You're our Avatar too". It defines her role between the Equalists versus Tarlock's Task Force. She's smack in the middle and needs to keep everyone's interest at heart. It's a nice rub, IMO.

I'm not a fan of the love triangle, but my girlfriend seems to enjoy it do I think it's purpose is being fulfilled.

Yeah I'm not a fan of love triangles either... It means that one person has no one :cry: What do you think will happen in the end? Did anyone else notice with Asami knowing that Korra like Mako. We all saw the squinty eyes in the mirror when Korra jumped in the back of the car with Mako. Could all this lead to maybe Asami like joining the eaqulesist in some sort of jelous rage or doing something to get Korra out of the picture. They didnt put it in there for fun. I got a feeling something's gonna happen with Asami

Yea i noticed that too and had same thoughts. I do not think that Asami will even join the Equalist, but when she gets a chance, she will do something bad, maybe even directly to Korra. Now she probably has mixed feelings and it will confuse her for a moment. But i belive, she will be fine at the end! Team Avatar needs her :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
