Come on an auditory adventure with the Ember Island Podcast (Leslie
and Barbara) as we analyze, review, and rave about every episode of The Legend of Korra (and Avatar: The Last Airbender) from start to
finish!
This discussion includes: Love triangles are dumb and we don't care, there is no plot this episode, we compare Korra romance and characterization to Avatar romance and characterization, Asami is a plot prop for Korra, Bolin is a cinnamon roll, soap opera teen romance, Mako is trash to Asami and Bolin (poor Bolin), Miyazaki tears, (remember how Sokka got lei'd?), and we analyze why we think pro-bending (and this episode) is boring.
(If you haven't noticed, we don't like this episode, so it's a fun one!)
This episode includes the fifth episode of Season 1 of The Legend of Korra:
Book 1: Air: Chapter 5: The Spirit of Competition
