I love that Korra's relationship with the airkids has advanced to the point where she can treat them like obnoxious siblings. I had 3 younger sisters growing up, and I just about died when Korra told Ikki to get lost after Ikki dropped the "Korra likes Mako" bomb.

@avclub-bbb04f2a70775131fa0397bbdb4c03de:disqus I just remembered that I was actually in high school in 1996, so I now feel even older. Also, apparently I was still watching the Disney Channel, so I feel like a loser.

It would have been really hard to deliver an Avatar State smackdown under those circumstances without a fuckton of collateral damage. When Roku destroyed his own temple, the people inside barely got out alive.

Yeah, and a quick response to Emily's comment about electricity: there's a difference between being struck by lightning and being hit by a Tazer. I assume that even firebenders have at least a modicum of control over the juice they're putting out. The reason Azula and Ozai were so deadly is because they pretty much…
