Originally conceived as a 12-episode miniseries before being expanded to a 52-episode, four season show, Legend of Korra is a more mature, darker show than its predecessor, one that isn’t afraid to tackle weighty themes, address sociopolitical issues, and push boundaries with its portrayals of gender roles and sexual orientation, all under the guise of youth-oriented entertainment. Set seventy years after the events of Avatar, the series follows Korra, a 17-year-old, headstrong Avatar from the Southern Water Tribe, as she navigates the challenges and responsibilities of being the Avatar while trying to keep the physical and spiritual worlds safe.
