Waste of my time
I really hope there isn’t another sequel like this because oh my god this had so much dark humor. Suicide was shown where Amon and his brother press the button, and yep. THE BOAT EXPLODES! another thing is when the four villains caught korra, guess what happened they put mercury inside of her body. Mercury can kill you and is poisonous. This is a definite no-go for the original ATLA fans this is a disappointment to the original #staywiththeoriginal

The original ATLA was better.
I just wished they continued the story from where it ended or added another season to the original Avatar: The Last Airbender idk what this is, it's nothing like the original, not even as good.

Not as good as the original, but still contains a strong heroine, and positive messages make great fantasy series.

Please go watch this show, it's great!
I came into this expecting it to just be a carbon copy of the original series, but I now wish I would have watched it sooner, not only is their great representation, not only with Korea being bi, but also not all the characters have the same body shape. I also like the way they don't try just throwing in jokes at bad times, like they do in lots of kids shows. LoK knows when to take itself seriously. They also made good role models without making them perfect.

I feel like everyone is being overreactive
I don’t think it is too violent, yes it is slightly more violent but it is not traumatizing and it will not encourage your child to be violent.
Why is everyone so…upset over the fact that korra has ptsd?
I think that mental health problems shouldn’t be hidden away from kids. Kids should know about mental health and know why they have them. This way they can empathize with others better. They may have a friend with ptsd. Let’s stop stigmatizing mental health.
ALSO SEASON 2 IS PAINFUL TO WATCH.
Korra is an amazing protagonist imo, she is someone who can be looked up to for going through such a rough time.
Of course, I don’t think this show is for younger children for obvious reasons but overall a pretty good show.

A little more mature than ATLA.

2 suicides, childhood trauma, adult trauma. Adult theme
I think that this show isnt suited for the same age group as the original series, both are absolute master peices obviously, but it has a much much darker theme, the first season bloodbending scene sand all the power abuse and politics, very disturbing for me when i was watching it at that age, then theres the unsettling suicide, makos description of his parents death "he cut them down right infront of me, i was 8" the queens death gave me nightmares XD, theres korras ptsd, another suicide near the end with asami's dad I think it just suites a bit more of a mature audience

I love this show a lot, it has great writing and compelling characters. Only thing is that for kids it’s not for super young ones, it has violence and some character death in the story. The show also portrays realistic relationships between characters. People also experience realistic problems mentally also. In the end I highly recommended.

Great show!
I am not very good at ratings but here we go; I loved loved loved the show! I am a complete Avatar (the last airbender) nerd! I’ve always loved the show, and the graphic novels, and I held back on watching this for a while because I wasn’t sure, but I loved it! It was good not much to say on the characters, but it has a much much darker theme then avatars the last airbender, it’s in a dystopian (seems like it) world so it always has a darker vibe, steam punk maybe? Pollution? I can’t be certain, but it is one of the things I like about it, it’s just really good, though no actual dark things like gore, blood, or disturbing things, it would just be scary for little kids. It does have violence, and scary things, so I don’t agree with the Y7 rating Netflix gave it (it’s sad Netflix doesn’t have the other seasons too) overall highly recommend, I don’t know if it would make as much sense without watching Avatar: the last airbender, due to the fact I’ve known avatar since I was like 8 I couldn’t say what it would seem without knowledge of lore. 12+ because I think at that age your probably not gonna be as easily spooked (also some deaths,) (little kids won’t understand the complex problems and emotions of the characters.) (Korra is a strong female character.) (oh yeah tons of blood bending which is kind of disturbing as it’s forcing someone’s body to move in kind of glitchy movements by bending there blood like it’s water, which sounds worse than it is, depending on your tolerance.) it’s not as dark as I may have put it, but I hope this rating was helpful! Great show! Bye!

Great show with some scenes to disturbing for younger viewers
The word I'd use to describe the show is inconsistent.From its tone to just the general quality and this will be important when discussing what age group should be allowed to watch this show.The show's has an action-focus.The action itself is ussally fine for viewers who could handle the last airbenders action.However,their are moments where the show become much darker than the last airbender,these moments become more common as the series goes on.These include a death of a character by removal of the air from their lungs.
