Legend of Korra Review: Zaheer Explains It All

[Imp_Emissary]

Here's some questions for Zaheer and anyone who agrees with him.

What's to stop them from just making new kingdoms/cities/nations? (what's to stop the Earth kingdom from having a new Dynasty that is corrupt, or gets corrupt later)

Even if you do get rid of the current ones, it's not like they can't make more.

Entropy, bro! From the second you're born you start to die, and from the second a government is established it starts to corrupt. Anarchists are the necessary purge that burns out the rot of the old system so the seeds of the new system can be sown, then once the new system inevitably grows too bloated and corrupt the process starts again. it's all cyclical.

Eh, kind of sounds like a temporary solution at best, or something that helps to perpetuate it at worst. xD
I mean, it that's the plan, then it means it WILL happen again.

Though, it sounds like Zaheer. is looking to change the equation, rather than complete it.
I guess we'll see soon enough.

Also.

well, that was more than enough armchair sociology from me for one day, on to the episode. XD

I enjoyed most of it. well animated, loved the humor, and the exposition. Zaheer's agenda seems a tad too simple for now, I'm hoping there's more to it, but at least we have a name for the antagonists and a general reason for being from them.

Also, bondage, but also also I'm glad they revisited the earth queen subplot. I was legitimately afraid they may have let that issue lie as just a temporary obstacle to acquiring the airbenders.

I too am glad they brought the earth queen back. I wonder if Korra will remember he can metal bend now(to help get out of her and Asami's bonds).

I also wonder how The Red Lotus will use Mako and Bolin. As bait, or have then help them get to Korra directly/as a distraction?

Also in this episode, bondage.

50 Shades of Bending

Mr. Bending will see you now...

OT: Those were some intense games of Pai Sho... I was at the edge of my checkers, G!

Oh... and Zaheer [kinda] has a point, although he didn't have to throw Aiwei into the fog just to have some "proper" alone time with the Avatar...
