Look I'm not saying that it isn't well rated, but too many people dismiss "Avatar: The Last Airbender" as a cartoon or a childrens show when it is in fact a masterpiece.
Idk, everyone I speak to about it agrees that it's incredible. Doesn't seem underrated. I've been wanting to rewatch it.
Right you're talking about the people who HAVE seen it. It isn't rated lowly, it is dismissed by too many people. Like I said originally...
Ah ok, well you might be right
Korra is better in my opinion.
Existed for the third show, btw! Avatar - Seven Havens.
Korra was a bunch of nepo baby elites going around policing the world without the consent of anyone else, whilst discovering who they were.
Aang and his crew actually took time to go village to village to help out the local people, whilst training to take on an army.
These two shows are not the same.
The great thing about that, though, and the reason Korra is indeed a great show, is that the show itself explores whether they are a bunch of nepobabies, and whether they should even be doing what they're doing. I loved that. It was a worthy successor.
