Yeah, it’s set 70 years after the first series, in the Avatar world’s equivalent of the 1920s.
It’s gonna be awesome.
January 20, 2012 at 8:28 am #105818khuddleParticipantThat’s right, Sammichung. It is the sequel and it is set to air sometime this year, mostly likely either in the late summer or fall of this year. There will be 2 seasons, comprised of 12 episodes each. It takes place 70 years after the original series, so most of the old gang is dead (although Katara has been confirmed to be alive and will make an appearance in the show). Korra is the latest incarnation of the Avatar, and she must travel to the capital of the Fire Nation called Republic City to complete her training as the Avatar; she also must confront a group called the “Equalists”, a group of anti-benders bent on the destruction of all benders of any stripe. It’s being created by the same team who did the original animated series — Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. As you can see the from the above clip, the animation is top notch and the voice acting will be stellar too.
Personally, I havent been this excited about a sequel sinceStar Wars: Episode I. :woohoo:January 20, 2012 at 8:42 am #105819SammiChungParticipantonly 70 years later? really? then something horrible happened to Aang then to have a new Avatar…she seems in her teens or so…and I understand the idea of moving on but bringing back only Katara and not Toph who was the youngest next to Aang seems a bit shortchanging to the rich universe they created,.. not that many people will miss Sokka…or even Zuko but to only have one token character in it from the past? Should have just left them out all together in my opinion

My doctor is a former FBB. Totally a coincidence – I swear.
January 21, 2012 at 3:28 am #105828khuddleParticipant— Aang, well, we all know he WILL make an appearance in the series, because when the Avatar goes spirit form, she visits Avatars of the past, to ask for advice, or just to hang and socialize. So Aang will definetly make an appearance.
— Yeah Sokka (Thank God) will not be around. Neither will Toph, ALTHOUGH Toph’s daughter will figure prominently in the series as a Metal-Bender (not sure if she will be an ally or a foe of Korra’s yet). Zuko is not scheduled to make an appearance, ALTHOUGH the voice actor for Zuko will be returning to play a part in the series, so one can only specualte. Katara will be around, but she will be pretty damn old (80+ I guess). She will be related to Korra somehow.
— Frankly, if I’d like to see any characters return it would be Azula (one of the greatest female villains ever in an animated feature — drop dead gorgeous, diabolically clever, strong as an ox, and could easily kick a man’s a** in a fight; in fact the only two warriors clearly better than her in the original series were Aang and Ozai) and Iro (easily the most humorous and likeable character of the original series — but it aint happening considering the voice actor who played Iro is dead 🙁 ). Azula’a an outside longshot but you never know it could happen — and it would be an absolute blast if they could being her back.

Just about everyone from the original main cast, has died either by old age or other things.

I believe the creators’ word on that is that all that time Aang spent in that iceberg burned off a chunk of his lifespan.
