Korra

Book 1 - Really great until the very end. Some boring parts throughout.
Book 2 - Horrible animation and character development until about half way through, then gets pretty good, then ends weird.
Book 3 - Loving it so far.

And then give us a gigantic asspull at the end. I love the Avatar writers for the most part, but they cannot write a good ending to a season at all (besides ALTA Book 2).
What
Book 2 finale was the least memorable out of all of ATLA, I had to go look it up because I completely forgot what happened.

The other two I remember quite clearly, especially Book 1 finale. That was god tier.

LoK decently managed to weave darker themes into the show, but was inherently brought down by the decision to become a full season when the writers weren't prepared for it

And then promptly waste an episode on (ultimately pointless) shipping.

I disagree. Season 1 and 3 of ATLA have good endings. Also LoK was planned to be a "full" season from the beginning. Just a short one.

Also pls don't spoil book 3 soon because I'm in SoCal and my secondary eastern Nick channel isn't eastern anymore for some reason. Nice to read that it's great so far though.

or I could just stay off this thread lol

Also other guy, the last few episodes of Korra book 2 have good animation, particularly in the Spirit World. Beginning is worse.

Yeah. Studio Mir didn't think they could handle another Korra book that soon, so Studio Pierrot (the dudes who animate Naruto) took it on at first. The first episode looked pretty good, but things went down hill fast and things were looking terrible. Half way through Mir was tired of Pierrot ruining their image (because the casual viewer doesn't know **** about animation studios) so they took back over for the Wan story and just about everything else afterwards.

Pierrot suuuuuuuucks

I mean that the endings to 1 and 3 are very contrived (more so for 3 because energybending to subvert addressing a pretty serious character flaw). Everything is wrapped up rather nicely at least (well besides throwing a hook out with Zuko confronting Ozai over his mother, but at least they make use of his not-deadness with this ending). Also, I probably remember the ending to 2 the most because NickToons has a penchant for airing it practically all the time. It also helped that S2 provided the forefront of the biggest character development pieces so the finale was able to round it all up nicely (although I share Iroh's reaction to Zuko challenging Azula, I mean christ man why).

Energybending was planned (at least what it does) since the beginning of the show. I have the art book.

And I agree. Nicktoons Avatar reruns are ALWAYS the Ba Sing Se arc.

I hope the announcement goes live before Korra starts here.

proof that nostalgia is real: people genuinely played CvS2 for nearly a decade and I can only assume it was the only arcade cabinet on-hand in norcal because it sure as hell isn't because it's fun to watch

Wha? All opinions, by their very nature, are subjective by definition. Are they not?
No. Opinions are neither objective nor subjective; however, an opinion can only be valid if it's about something subjective.

Example; whether or not something tastes nice or tastes gross is subjective, and as such believing that either is true would be someone's opinion. The sky is objectively blue, and as such holding an opinion that it is, in fact, not, would be invalid.

Many people attempt to avoid arguments by declaring that opinions are subjective, and implying that subjectivity, in that case, means that one's opinion is incapable of being wrong, which is definitely not the case. It's also important to note that the point of debate in the first place is an attempt at organizing subjective ideas into objective ones; the line between subjective and objective is not as distinct as people tend to assume, and the pervasive idea that 'quality', as an idea, is an incomprehensibly complicated notion that's essentially impossible to quantify to any degree is just flat out wrong.

Rather than trying to make your opinions unassailable, consider that the wise man knows that he knows nothing.

EDIT: And CVS2 nowadays if it's not played on arcade cabinet it's played on DC or PS2 mainly DC cause it's the closest to the arcade version. The PS2 classics on the PSN re release is just straight up a lazy port with some input lag from what I hear. Personally watching CVS2 is exciting and it's one of my favorite FG's to watch or play but it does have alot of cheap stuff to it.

Did quality actually drop since they reset the stream? It's looking pretty awful.

Man, this stage is pretty problematic. Walls, extra close blast zones, and I can't even figure out where the ledges are. But that bit might be because of the quality.
