The Legend of Korra/Fridge: Difference between revisions

* The first book of Legend of Korra is Air. Not only is this the element of the last Avatar, it's the next in the cycle after Fire. Furthermore, each previous season was named after the element Aang learns (Water, Earth, Fire). Korra's season deals with her learning Airbending.

* Airbending is all about freedom of movement. Korra's been forced to stay at the compound her entire life. No wonder she's terrible at it. She actually said something along those lines in "A leaf in the wind"

* The [[Medieval Stasis|jump in technology]] from the first series to now actually makes a lot of sense; in Aang's time, both before and after his freezing, things were relatively the same, with only minor changes for the most part. The biggest jumps were from the [[Mad Scientist|Mechanist]] and, by assocation, the Fire Nation (huge navy, zepplins, the freezer prison). But remember that they were ''at war'', so they wouldn't be sharing their technology at all. Also, they'd be more geared /for military aspects than more simple enjoyment/ease of living like radios and such. With the war over, it could all spread across the world, and people like the Mechanist and Sokka could create freely, which would lead to why Korra's time is so advanced in comparison.

** The jump also makes sense if you consider the technological differences between the real world 1920's and 1850's (or so).
