THE LEGEND OF KORRA

The Legend of Korra is an American animated television series that premiered on the Nickelodeon television network in 2012. It was created by Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino as a sequel to their series Avatar: The Last Airbender, which aired on Nickelodeon from 2005 to 2008. Several people involved with creating Avatar: The Last Airbender, including designer Joaquim Dos Santos and composers Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn, returned to work on The Legend of Korra.
The series is set in a fictional universe where some people can manipulate, or "bend", the elements of water, earth, fire, or air. Only one person, the "Avatar", can bend all four elements, and is responsible for maintaining balance in the world. The series follows Avatar Korra, the successor of Aang from the previous series, as she faces political and spiritual unrest in a modernizing world.
With a style that is strongly influenced by Japanese animation, The Legend of Korra has been a critical and commercial success, drawing favorable comparisons with the HBO series Game of Thrones and the work of Hayao Miyazaki. It obtained the highest audience total for an animated series in the United States in 2012, and was praised by reviewers for its high production values and for addressing difficult sociopolitical issues such as social unrest and terrorism.
The Legend of Korra was originally conceived as a miniseries consisting of twelve episodes, but it is now set to run for fifty-two episodes separated into four seasons ("books"), each of which tells a separate story. Following declining TV ratings in the third season, and with Nickelodeon having a hard time fitting it into their programming, Nickelodeon stopped airing the series in July 2014. The remainder of season 3 is to be distributed weekly online, where it has been markedly more successful.

Synopsis :
The first season, Book One: Air, sees Korra move from her secluded upbringing at the South Pole to Republic City to learn airbending from Tenzin, Avatar Aang's son. She enters the pro-bending league, and befriends the brothers Bolin and Mako, the latter of whom she eventually falls in love with, as well as Asami Sato, heiress to Future Industries. The ambitious politician Tarrlok enlists Korra to fight the anti-bender uprising of the "Equalists", led by the masked Amon, who strips benders of their abilities. Eventually, exposed as the son of a blood bending crime lord from Aang's lifetime, Tarrlok reveals Amon to be his older brother. Korra and her friends, aided by police chief Lin Beifong and United Forces General Iroh, manage to unmask Amon to end the Equalists' military coup. While she lost her connection to the elements of water, earth, and fire, Korra finally gained her airbending, and a later spiritual meeting with Aang allowed her to learn energybending, and to thus undo the damage Amon caused to her and his other victims.
The second season, Book Two: Spirits, begins six months later with Korra learning that restless spirits ("dark spirits") have been terrorizing the south seas. Feeling that she can not learn to calm the dark spirits through Tenzin, Korra turns to her uncle Unalaq, the Northern Water Tribe chief, for guidance. But as civil war among the Water Tribe branches ensues, Korra learns that Unalaq arranged for the exile of her father, Tonraq, and had used her to achieve his own agenda which she learns is connected to her most distant past life: a young man named Wan who became the very first Avatar by permanently fusing his soul with the spirit of light, Raava, to seal her dark counterpart Vaatu in the Tree of Time and close the portals to the Spirit World. However, having tricked Korra into reopening the portals so that he could go to the Tree of Time, Unalaq planned to free Vaatu in the upcoming Harmonic Convergence and then fuse with the spirit to become an Avatar himself. Once merged with Vaatu, Unalaq purged Ravaa from Korra and destroyed both the spirit and Korra's connection to her past lives. However, Korra is able to absorb energy from the Tree of Time that allows her to fight the Dark Avatar, and with the help of Tenzin's daughter, Jinora, she manages to reclaim the reborn Raava from within Vaatu, and destroys him, with Unalaq being killed in the process. After the battle, Korra re-fuses with Raava, but her connection to the past Avatars remains severed. Korra keeps the spirit portals open so that humans and spirits can coexist as a new age begins.
The third season, Book Three: Change, begins two weeks later with Korra losing favor in Republic City since the spirits' arrival to the point of being expelled from the city by President Raiko. Furthermore, as seen with Tenzin's older brother Bumi, the Harmonic Convergence has caused some non-benders to become airbenders with Korra accompanying Tenzin to find these new airbenders to revive the Air Nomad civilization. However, as Team Avatar is joined by an airbending pick-pocket named Kai during their search in the Earth Kingdom, a dangerous criminal named Zaheer gains airbending abilities and escapes to free his allies Ghazan, Ming-Hua, and P'Li to reform the Red Lotus group and capture Korra.
