UPDATE (4/4/12): The first two episodes have now been released for free in HD via iTunes!
The first two episodes of The Legend of Korra have debuted online via Korra Nation! The series won't make it's television debut until April 14th, but Korra Nation announced the other week that if they got 100k likes on Facebook, the premiere would debut online early. And so it has!
The first two chapters, Welcome to Republic City, and A Leaf in the Wind were combined into double-length premiere episode, and it is absolutely spectacular! I believe the new series exceeded expectations -- which were high. It has lovable characters, a superb premise, great action, spectacular music, and a wonderful sense of humor -- all while being a bit more mature than the original series.
If you haven't had the chance to see the premiere yet, I recommend dropping what you're doing and head over to iTunes right now to check it out!

@ProbenderChamp We would find out through "The Promise" what happened to Zuko's mom? I'm not sure whether they said they would address it there. Most likely not. If anything, I think they would address it in the actual series. At least I hope so.

@Waterbender85 I don't see how Amon could have any connection with Jet, taking into account that Jet died during the series. It's not like he could have gotten married and had a child etc. Unless, you're thinking they had a connection in a different way?

maybe amon used to bend but he is bad so aang took his bending away and after that he became mad and decided to take his anger out on the benders by creating the group of equalists...also i think that he studied really hard to learn energy-bending.....that's just my other guess....
In case you missed it online, go to iTunes and look up "Korra". They have the first two episodes free. I don't know for how long. The Track Team mentioned it in both of their tumblrs.
I think Amon is really the trollface guy underneath just look at the guy's eyes! Hmmmmmm, someone should cosplay Amon with a trollface on, lolz
Comment by: dre @ 05:19 am April 06, 2012
Amon and co. remind me of long feng and te dai li. or shredder and the foot clan.lol

Guys It's almost April 14! I already watched it online but i am for sure watching on TV again! We all have to support guys!

Has anyone else noticed that older Aang has a beard and no mustache, quite the style.
Let me explain. In the intro it shows 4 benders, much like the intro to the show Avatar. But this time it appears to be all Avatars. First Avatar Kyoshi, then Avatar Roku, then an airbener, then Avatar Korra. If the order is right, than the airbender is Avatar Aang. And if you look closely he has a beard with no mustache O.O
Comment by: Infinidy @ 11:40 pm April 07, 2012
Yeah, Aang looks like Mike. Notice he's always drawing himself with an arrow on his head. I know I've seen him with the facial hair style before. It's so him. The 'stachless short-trimmed beard. /nod. Totally a Mike look. I thought it was quite becoming on Aang. ^_^
Comment by: anoobis @ 06:18 am April 08, 2012
@ scotty
if you watch the first two episodes it shows the statue of Aang with no beard, but his son Tenzin has one just like that in the show.... so i do believe that that airbender is not Aang but rather his son Tenzin
Comment by: Time @ 07:34 am April 08, 2012
@ anoobis
Yes, but the statue that we all see in the show could be him of a younger age and/or he shaved it when they made the statue.

Amon is M. Night Shyamalan. DONE
Comment by: dre @ 03:12 am April 10, 2012

Comment by: Infinidy @ 10:28 am April 10, 2012

Comment by: Legit @ 02:04 pm April 10, 2012
Did you guys see the clip where Korra and Tahno face off?
Comment by: Moe @ 05:29 pm April 10, 2012
I hope the episodes will air weekly. What do you guys think?
Comment by: Time @ 02:05 am April 11, 2012
@ Moe
I hope so, I didn't purchase a Season 1 pass on iTunes for nothing!
(can't watch the episodes on Saturday mornings when they plan to air)
Comment by: ProbenderChamp @ 09:38 am April 11, 2012

Comment by: chackramaster @ 02:04 am April 12, 2012

Comment by: beetlejuice @ 02:18 am April 12, 2012
so many spoilers. People just wait until the show airs its not going to kill you to wait.*disappointed*
Comment by: LhiteWotus @ 02:19 am April 12, 2012
Hahaha, Korra will punch the eye-liner out of that pretty boy, Tahno's face! Or punch the highlights out of his hair! What highlights? Oh...nevermind, she already did O.o
Comment by: PoachedPig @ 02:54 am April 12, 2012
What the hell happened to this site? Why is this not updated anymore?
Comment by: benjecho @ 08:05 am April 12, 2012
I want more info on the Air Acolytes!
Comment by: Moe @ 09:11 am April 12, 2012
I may be wrong but i remember Nickelodeon tweeting that Avatar: The Last Airbender will be on at 2
Comment by: Jack @ 02:51 pm April 12, 2012
Ok, I don't know if anyone of you are familiar with the ATLA comic "The Promise," but I found something that might interests all shippers out there:
Comment by: chackramaster @ 08:58 pm April 12, 2012
@jack that can't be real stuff like that cannot be allowed, whats going to happen to sokka?
Comment by: Shirly @ 03:28 am April 13, 2012
@jack AND MAI!!! That can't possibly be real...they wouldn't do that to us....It's....not allowed...
Comment by: Kohface @ 06:42 am April 13, 2012
1st: Everyone here should have read the Promise Part 1 2nd: Suki is a very good friend to Zuko, I mean you worry about people that you traveled with and also the king that you are protecting... I dont think both of them would let each other bring at least one bit of romantic atmosphere because of their past. 3rd: I think WANG FIRE would beat the hell out of Zuko if anything happened...
Comment by: dre @ 07:31 am April 13, 2012
Lol he set her village on fire. They are falling for eachother
Comment by: de @ 07:55 am April 13, 2012
Not* sorry for the typo
Comment by: anoobis @ 08:41 am April 13, 2012
i dont think Mai would let that happen unless she died, which i dont think she did, i mean remember the last episode Mai was very adamant about not breaking up with her... :) and she its pretty badass when if comes to fighting for zuko
Comment by: Legit @ 10:53 am April 13, 2012
Let's just pretend here that Suki went with Mai. So that means Sokka went with...TOPH!! Yes I know it's not likely but it just came into my mind.
or by some freak accident Yue was turned back into a human,but there's just no hope for that theory.
Comment by: Travis primal @ 01:32 pm April 13, 2012
@Legit
I would definitely like to pretend Suki went with Mai too! ..Kidding, that's just me being a guy, though fan-girls do the same with the guy characters too..so... I'm...forgiven? Sorry Anyways-
When is The Promise Part 2 coming, again?
Comment by: Legit @ 03:01 pm April 13, 2012
@Travis primal LMFAO, i meant to say that Suki went with Zuko NOT Mai. Major typo.
Yeah, I have no clue when the Promis Part 2 is coming, I would think sometime in summer or early fall?
Comment by: BeingGirl @ 05:03 am April 14, 2012
I can't wait to see LOK today! We've waited for this for long enough! It's the final countdown! 57 minutes yet!
Comment by: Kohface @ 06:27 am April 14, 2012
Everybody in the East coast that is on right now, Should be watching Korra...!!!
Comment by: Moe @ 07:13 am April 14, 2012
Can't wait until next weeks episode!
Comment by: Someone @ 07:25 am April 14, 2012
There must be some place to celebrate this moment. This rare excitement can not go to waste.
Comment by: logo @ 07:31 am April 14, 2012
It was beautiful. Even though I've already seen it like 10 times, nothing beats seeing it on on TV. And looking at the sneak peak for next week I think it's pretty safe to say that Amon is an energy bender or has some sort of ability to manipulate people's bending.
Comment by: chackramaster @ 09:31 am April 14, 2012
omw, soooo disappointed that i couldnt watch the premiere on TV, *sad*
Comment by: JoJo @ 12:29 pm April 14, 2012
Who else, after watching today's premiere, does NOT want this to be a miniseries?!?!?
I mean, LOK is too good to be that short!!!!!! with happiness
Comment by: Mojo @ 05:19 pm April 14, 2012
@JoJo
I agree 26 episodes just doesn't feel enough. I know its not easy making an episode but I want the series to be long enough for it to be known. Look at Samurai Jack and ATLA they had at least 50 episodes! The more episodes the more popular the show is. But don't worry. If enough fans ask for more episodes I asure you that the directors will be able to develop more episodes if they get enough time. Of course no likes a rushed episode.

i dont mind if its a miniseries, but yes i would like more episodes.
something that might be really cool, is if they choose to make a movie, animated of course after the show, of maybe an older korra with a new story, and when i say older i mean like mid twenties or something like that.
Comment by: MetalbendingLegend @ 10:24 pm April 14, 2012
Have you already watched episode 3? :)
Comment by: Mojo @ 04:14 am April 15, 2012
Season 3 won't air til 4/15/12 on Nick
Comment by: Mojo @ 05:32 am April 15, 2012
Sorry I meant episode 3 not season 3
Comment by: MetalbendingLegend @ 05:54 am April 15, 2012
