00:00:00Congratulations on all of it, and believe me, this is only the beginning!
00:00:16Glad to see y'all. Oh, hey Ren!
00:00:20Nice to see ya, how ya feelin'?
00:00:23Even people who are critical of the way Bright writes villains will go,
00:00:26Okay, this one works, because they just made her metalbending Stalin.
00:00:30That all said,
00:00:39Metalbending Stalin.
00:00:40That all said,
00:00:41I do wish Toph got to slaughter Kuvira.
00:00:44Yes, Toph dragging the metalbending Sozin was everything,
00:00:47but I crave the blood of fascists.
00:00:50But weirdly enough, it takes
00:00:52But weirdly enough, it takes
00:00:56a long time for that to establish itself.
00:00:58Characters are generally spreading rumors about Kuvira,
00:01:01but that's all they end up being for about half the season.
00:01:03And all
00:01:05It's not blood, it's
00:01:08You're Kuvira!
00:01:16The only reason you want this
00:01:23I'm sick with something, and it's kicking my butt.
00:01:25How are you doing, hun?
00:01:26I'm doing alright, almost
00:01:27I am
00:01:28I am so close to the end,
00:01:31and so much of this section is already edited.
00:01:36It's been a month, and a month with no uploads has been not great, but
00:01:43God, I'm hoping this does well.
00:01:52I'm hoping this does well.
00:01:59Lily, do you fuck with Iranian cinema?
00:02:01I do not.
00:02:02God, I'm hoping this does well.
00:02:06I'm hoping this does well.
00:02:09I'm hoping this does well.
00:02:14God, I'm hoping this does well.
00:02:17I'm hoping this does well.
00:02:19I guess I gotta go.
00:02:21We're not wanted
00:02:27Characters are generally spreading rumors about Kuvira
00:02:29But that's all they end up being for about half the season and all Kuvira really does to support it is lecture a guy and
00:02:34smirk given
00:02:37The eye of cannot protect your people your pride will not stop the hordes as your city crumbles to the ground
00:02:44Does to support it is lecture a guy and smirk given that so far every villain has just been a psych
00:02:49It's actually opposite day. I will admit. I was half expecting there to be a twist here, but now now she did all that shit
00:02:55Maybe you need
00:03:05Poor people in the Earth Empire people you're just some glorified movie. Yeah, there was a movie about a guy named
00:03:11You're just some glorified movie. Yeah, there would be a better leader than Kuvira. Well, no, come on Mako
00:03:17I'm a killer for some snotty rich bozo
00:03:20I'm sorry. You're just some glorified butler for some snotty rich bozo
00:03:25I'm sorry. I don't want to work for your glorious Emperor in her military dictatorship
00:03:30Go enjoy licking the king's boots in your junior suite
00:03:34I'm gonna go back to my awesome train where we bring freedom wherever we go
00:03:42You
00:03:44Has just been a psych it's actually opposite day
00:03:47I will admit I was half expecting there to be a twist here, but now now she did all that shit. Maybe you
00:03:53It's actually opposite. He did all that shit. Maybe you need to spend some time in a re-education camp
00:03:58I thought that's where we send people to learn new trade skills
00:04:03Hard truth spool in Kuvira is actually the most missed potential
00:04:07this is a story about the Earth Kingdom in a period of upheaval with someone deputized to bring the people back into a place of
00:04:13security and relative safety from Kuvira is
00:04:17I never realized
00:04:20I'll find a way to make other
00:04:22You
00:04:34Asking you to help keep the Earth Kingdom from falling apart
00:04:36All you wanted to do is hide in Zalfu and let others deal with the consequences. That's hardly fair
00:04:42I didn't want to seize power for myself
00:04:45You
00:04:50Story about the Earth Kingdom in a period of upheaval with someone deputized to bring the people back into a place of security and relative
00:04:56Safety from an army of roving bandits all with the aim of put actually the most missed potential
00:05:02This is a story with someone deputized
00:05:08With someone depth with someone deputized to bring the people back into a place of security and relative safety from an army of roving bandits
00:05:15All with the aim of putting a spoiled little princeling back on his throne really helping. We moved you into a very nice
00:05:28All with the aim of putting a spoiled little princeling back on his throne the same throne that had been oppressing the Earth Kingdom for years
00:05:34the same thrown multiple characters
00:05:36the same thrown multiple characters in the previous season including the avatar herself throw scorn onto and now you have someone who
00:05:45isn't a world leader or important figure leaning the charge to protect her own people and being expected to hand the reins of that over to
00:05:52The same people who caused this problem in the first place what I've heard. She's pretty harsh. No, I'm I'm even more upset
00:05:58She's a girl. She's a girl. She's a girl. She's a girl
00:06:01She's a girl. She's a girl. She's a girl. I'm a girl. She's a girl
00:06:07I'm a girl. I'm a girl. She's a girl. I'm a girl
00:06:10I'm a girl. She's a girl. She's a girl. She's a girl
00:06:12what I've heard she's pretty harsh no I mean she could be tough I know right I
00:06:17see myself in the mirror sometimes I think I'm in trouble before I realize
00:06:20it's only me so what's it like working for Kuvira so have you seen court a day
00:06:27for your kingdom like the royal pinky rings present you with the Kiyoshi Medal
00:06:35of Freedom our nation's highest honor which was somehow not stolen unlike the
00:06:40royal pinky rings hmm thank you and if you don't mind I'd like to say a few
00:06:47words why not we've got six hours to fill
00:07:06and now you have someone who isn't a world leader or important figure leaning
00:07:10the charge to protect her own people and being expected to hand the reins of
00:07:13that over to the same people who caused this problem in the first place and
00:07:16doing this during a time where the avatar herself is nowhere to be seen
00:07:30and doing this during a time where the avatar herself is nowhere to be seen
00:07:35Kuvira could have been a walking representation of the frustrations of so
00:07:38many people frustration at the monarchy at the Red Lotus at the avatar hell
00:07:42Kuvira was there to see court
00:07:52your state has been overrun by have you had time to rethink my wrist you want to
00:07:58take everything how is that generous governor your stick
00:08:08Kuvira could have been a walking representation of the frustrations of so
00:08:11many people frustration at the monarchy at the Red Lotus at the avatar hell
00:08:15Kuvira was there to see Cora get brutalized and left in a wheelchair
00:08:18maybe she's not angry with Cora it seems the Red Lotus
00:08:38think back into the temple see if I you know
00:08:55tell Kuvira was there to see Corgi so Ian wants to eat her cake and have it
00:08:59too or as we say in Russia eat the fish and sit on a dick
00:09:02oh wow I like that so Kuvira was there to see Cora get brutalized and left in a
00:09:07wheelchair maybe she's not angry with Cora maybe part of the reason she took
00:09:10the reins on this project was to give Cora time and space to rest and recover
00:09:13now you have the contrast of a normal person trying to do something the avatar
00:09:17was pretty maybe part of the reason she took the reins on this project was to
00:09:26give Cora time and space to rest and recover now you have the contrast of a
00:09:29normal person trying to do something the avatar was previously doing would
00:09:32certainly explain why Bolin is there furthermore several states
00:09:48would certainly explain why Bolin is there furthermore several states don't
00:09:51want to be a part of the New Earth Kingdom we get to see one of those
00:09:54states in the early episode but that state is falling apart that leads to
00:09:57interesting conversations about freedom verse all for an hour you know just
00:10:01Prince Wu
00:10:18choke on the bone but the people decided it needed to rhyme thus the dick was
00:10:23poignantly added to be a part of the New Earth Kingdom we get to see one of
00:10:27those states in the early episode but that state is falling apart that leads
00:10:30to interesting conversations about freedom versus security does it have the
00:10:35right to turn away aid if that aid is the only thing keeping his people alive
00:10:47generous
00:10:57the leader of a state have the right to turn away aid if that aid is the only
00:11:01thing keeping his people alive does freedom extend to people willingly
00:11:04choosing to destroy themselves should you just let them do it maybe each state
00:11:08ought to have a referendum and if you're doing that you're already making
00:11:10a case for democracy as a concept you have a lot of pride but it cannot
00:11:14protect your people your pride will not stop the hordes as your city crumbles to
00:11:18the ground and your pride certainly will not feed your hungry when all that is
00:11:22left is rubble the answer to all of these questions are probably here what
00:11:27happened
00:11:37these questions are probably yes but taking the time beautiful with words
00:11:44angel the problem it's like that's that's not having mixed feelings on
00:11:49Russia that's having poor feelings about the Kremlin they're two different
00:11:52things
00:12:19but taking the time to consider them would be interesting anyone who's ever
00:12:33had to deal with a friend who's high 24-7 will tell you that you can't help
00:12:36someone who doesn't want to be helped in fact there's an even better angle to
00:12:39take because it's the United Republic itself spearheading the reunification of
00:12:43the Earth Kingdom with the angle to take because it's the United Republic
00:12:54itself spearheading the reunification of the Earth Kingdom with the intention of
00:12:57putting woo on the throne and Rykos
00:13:02custom to the burdens of leadership Asian not yet
00:13:08of putting woo on the throne and Rykos straight-up admits he's sending advisors
00:13:17to do all the real ruling you sure that's the guy you want running the
00:13:20Earth Kingdom trust me we'll be sending a delegation of experienced advisors to
00:13:25handle day-to-day government and it's the United Republic who gave Kuvira the
00:13:28reigns on this project at all listen oh no no that's
00:13:46thing say so old who gave Kuvira the reigns on this project at all after she
00:13:51retook bossing say so already the states have a very sound reason to not want to
00:13:55get involved with Kuvira she's directly operating at the behest of the
00:13:59United Republic in the aim of re-establishing an oppressive monarchy
00:14:02that will become a puppet state for the Republic that's some CIA shit going on
00:14:07so I can certainly see why an individual state would be like yeah we're not doing
00:14:10that you fucking rube I'm not the only one noticing you have a lot of leave
00:14:19reports I've heard regarding Kuvira's growing militant have you received any
00:14:23information about the United Republic's plans for the future of the Republic
00:14:27that's some CIA shit going on so I can certainly see why an individual state
00:14:31would be like yeah we're not doing that you fucking rube I'm not the only one
00:14:35noticing this right like the United Republic is up to some shady shit in
00:14:38this season and we just leave that there Kuvira's reasoning reports I've heard
00:14:43regarding Kuvira's growing militant have you received any information about the
00:14:47United Republic is up to some shady shit in this season and we just leave
00:14:50that there Kuvira's reasoning for reneging on the deal is on the basis
00:14:53that the monarchy was terrible and they want to put it back tell your world
00:14:57leaders to stay out of Earth Empire business
00:15:01I found a beat-up an awful lot hey you rain
00:15:07I found a beat-up an awful lot hey you rain
00:15:12found a beat-up an awful lot hey you rain was archaic means that caused the
00:15:18earth
00:15:31Kuvira's reasoning for reneging on the deal is on the basis that the monarchy
00:15:34was terrible and they want to put it back tell
00:15:38Kuvira's reasoning for reneging on the deal is on the basis that the monarchy
00:15:42was terrible and they want to put it back tell your world leaders to stay out
00:15:46of Earth Empire business we won't accept their handpicked dictator that's the
00:15:50kind of thing that sounds like a conspiracy theory but trust me we'll be
00:15:54sending I know what happens
00:16:02that's the kind of thing that sounds like a conspiracy theory but trust me
00:16:06we'll be sending a delegation of experienced advisors to handle day-to-day government
00:16:10No, the United Republic literally admits to doing it. I talk about how this show tends
00:16:14to establish something really interesting and then proceeds to go set up another
00:16:18Frieza but now we're getting into shameless underhanded power grabs by a rogue
00:16:22Avatar fighting shape
00:16:26eyes of a royal
00:16:30King of all the Earthlands and glorious defender of
00:16:34the rise of the Huting dynasty
00:16:42No, the United Republic literally admits to doing it. I talk about how this show
00:16:46tends to establish something really interesting and then proceeds to go set up another
00:16:50Frieza but now we're getting into shameless underhanded power grabs by a rogue
00:16:54state and the season isn't about that? Did nobody notice that
00:16:58because it didn't have a dramatic camera pan or ominous musical sting?
00:17:02All of these things would certainly make for a great
00:17:26Did nobody notice that because it didn't have a dramatic camera pan
00:17:30or ominous musical sting? All of these things would certainly make for a great
00:17:34Especially with Korra coming back in the middle and having to get caught up on the last three
00:17:38years she missed but it would necessitate
00:18:00Especially with Korra coming back in the middle and having to get caught up on the last three
00:18:04years she missed but it would necessitate once again the plot not jamming
00:18:08Forks into its eyes to
00:18:12As far as I know
00:18:16We have history
00:18:20You take Zalfo
00:18:24To you
00:18:28We have an unexpected guest

00:19:12No, that's not. Please take your
00:19:22Essitate once again the plot not jamming forks into its eyes to avoid thinking about these things it would necessitate not
00:19:29Ham-fistedly shoving a villain into the story. It would necessitate everyone stance on the situation all being kind of bad
00:19:35I
00:19:39Don't let her get too frustrated do the thing what thing the thing wolf bat
00:19:57That's the timer this is ever
00:20:05You broke our agreement
00:20:24It would necessitate not ham-fistedly shoving a villain into the story
00:20:27It would necessitate everyone stance on the situation all being kind of bad
00:20:32Because none of them have had to deal with instability on this scale, but that doesn't big boom make pretty though
00:20:37But that doesn't big boom make pretty though. This is a season that ends with a giant death robot pretty though this
00:20:59But that doesn't big boom make pretty though. This is a season that ends with a giant death robot pretty though this
00:21:07But that doesn't big boom make pretty though. This is a season that ends with a giant death robot pretty though this
00:21:21Climb up to the arm
00:21:38You
00:21:45This is a season that ends with a giant death robot going Godzilla on
00:21:48Chinatown and if that doesn't tell you the wavelength the creators on nothing else will they build a giant death robot with a freaking laser
00:21:56Beam attached to its arm. This is what Evangelion would have been if the creator had
00:22:02Else will they build a
00:22:07Giant death robot with a freaking laser beam attached to its arm
00:22:11Tommy just blowing up the whole sit
00:22:22I did twist harder. I
00:22:25Hope you have something in here that can take out a platoon of mecha suits. Kufira's troops are headed this way
00:22:31I know how to disconnect anything electrical in here until we get back Julie. Let's go
00:22:38I can stop the mecha suits with an electromagnetic. I've been thinking about you
00:22:50It's our hands on right and I would do anything I
00:22:54Think I can add an electrical element to the welding torch on your suit and convert it into a pole big enough for
00:23:01It into a plasma saw then we'll just
00:23:05Okay
00:23:08You
00:23:11Manage to get inside find the engine room. There were two emergency levers
00:23:37You
00:23:39You
00:23:41You
00:23:43You
00:24:06Weapon it's too powerful. It can destroy the city. We can't let it get to our doorstep
00:24:10We'll sneak behind enemy lines and disable the
00:24:16We are only shot at preventing an all-out war
00:24:22Sending an all-out war. Good luck
00:24:30I'm trying to find that clip. I can't find it
00:24:33You
00:24:35Up our factory with all our hummingbird suits not all of them
00:24:39There are the prototypes back at my office if we can get those ready to fly
00:24:43We'll at least be able to offer a little air support
00:24:46Sue you take batard jr. And the rest of the wounded back to a Sami's office on our own
00:25:03All right, let's fire it up again I
00:25:11Hope you have something in here that can take out a platoon of mecha suits
00:25:16Yeah, I don't think that bit of that clip actually exists
00:25:20If he's not on the airship, then where is he?
00:25:24They build a giant death robot with a
00:25:33You
00:25:52Bro death robot with a frickin laser beam attached to its arm. This is what Evangelion
00:26:03I
00:26:08Hate there are no more things
00:26:13Julie do the thing. I'm afraid there are no more things to do
00:26:19What was that an
00:26:21Electromagnetic pulse it shut down the mecha suits, but our power source is fine. Locate the source of the pulse
00:26:26That must be where veric is. I figured we need all the
00:26:33I
00:26:35Mean and this beast cannot live but how are we supposed to think you must act like an infection
00:26:41Break the skin and attack the vital organs, but I love Republic City
00:26:45The prison is still standing after all this is over. We can throw him back in. I know what
00:26:54Because it's powered with spirit vine energy, I'm sorry, I wish I could help you
00:26:59But it's a and I will element to the welding
00:27:16Giant death robot with a frickin laser beam attached to its arm
00:27:20This is what Evangelion would have been if the crater hadn't gotten depression
00:27:24To its arm. This is
00:27:26It's great to be working together thing for the rest of our life
00:27:56I think this is probably my bet like my best remark in the in the entire video
00:28:05Farm this is what Evangelion would have been if the crater hadn't gotten depression partway through. Oh
00:28:16I'm this is what Evangelion
00:28:27You
00:28:32Evangelion would have been if the crater hadn't gotten depression partway through. Oh and it
00:28:42Oh, and it's offhandedly mentioned in reunion that Kuvira has been putting waterbenders and firebenders into concentration camps because yeah
00:28:49Just throw in some concentration camps as an aside. Oh, yeah speaking of throwing things in you remember how in
00:28:54You know who else has inside out I think I know
00:28:58Sorry up in one of Kuvira's re-education camps call it what it is
00:29:10We mentioned in reunion that Kuvira has been putting waterbenders and firebenders into concentration camps because yeah
00:29:16Just throw in some concentration camps as an aside
00:29:18Oh, yeah, speaking of throwing things in you remember how in season 2 Esco was weirdly dragging her brother around everywhere
00:29:24Even on double dates and the only time she actually went against her father was when Desna got injured
00:29:29Well, they actually make a joke about how that looked to some of the fandom
00:29:32I'm afraid there's been a mistake your eminence. We have you and your brother booked in the same room with only one bed
00:29:39It's no mistake
00:29:40Desna sleeps in the tub
00:29:42Haha, funny joke, right Kuvira is actually engaged to her brother
00:29:46Kuvira's backstory involves her being adopted by the Beifong family with tie-in comics later
00:29:51Cementing this with her being referred to as opal's sister. So this
00:30:02It was an anger I felt
00:30:05Have history I did everything you ever asked of me and you never appreciated it guards
00:30:13Not
00:30:15You two could learn
00:30:18Learn something from her
00:30:19Rise, Julie. I'll give you another chance. Think about what you're doing. We're partners. We have history
00:30:27I did everything you ever asked of me and you never appreciated it guards do that thing
00:30:34Not the thing Julie
00:30:38That should have been where Varick story ended
00:30:53Are you sure this will work
00:31:08You
00:31:13And do you think I
00:31:15Three years ago after when she was eight years old and nourished her. She was like a daughter to me
00:31:20I took I thought she was your protege
00:31:24Had between you and Kuvira
00:31:26Things get so much. She was your protege
00:31:28She was more than that. She was like a daughter to me
00:31:32I took her in when she was eight years old and nourished her talents
00:31:36Kuvira was smart
00:31:43To her brother Kuvira's backstory involves her being adopted by the Bayfong family with tie-in comics later
00:31:48cementing this with her being referred to as
00:31:59With tie-in comics later cementing this with her being referred to as opal's sister
00:32:03So this means her and Bataar jr. Are sibling
00:32:09With tie-in comics later, so this means her and
00:32:13Sister so this means her and Bataar jr. Are siblings and this is just sitting there. Nope
00:32:25I'm sorry
00:32:27When you left south it broke my heart something I can do that will be even
00:32:32She might chase us out of the city, but you won't be around to enjoy the victory because wherever I run I'll take you
00:32:39I'm going to make it my life's mission
00:32:41To never let you see the one you love again is taking the city worth losing Kuvira forever
00:32:47You can't I will unless you convince Kuvira to back off
00:32:52You two will still have the earth Empire. Just leave the unit
00:32:57What should I tell her go what kind of game are you playing?
00:33:01You told me you would send Bataar over with your terms and then he doesn't show
00:33:07According to your people he's not on the airship if he's not on the airship, then where is he?
00:33:13If he's not on the airship, then where is he?
00:33:16Kuvira, it's Bataar. I've been captured
00:33:20My airship was ambushed and I was taken by force
00:33:23Korra refuses to release me unless we back down and leave the city. Are you injured?
00:33:30Is the avatar there with you now?
00:33:40Junior our siblings and this is just sitting there. Nobody brings it up. We don't unpack it at no point
00:33:46Does anyone say to Bataar?
00:33:53You won't hurt me
00:34:03At no point does anyone say to Bataar dude, what's your problem? Oh, no. No, I'm sorry Bataar does say something about it
00:34:10You're going
00:34:12Problem. Oh, no. No, I'm sorry Bataar does say something about it. You're going to have to get over your grudge with her
00:34:18I'm sure you've heard that we're engaged. She's going to be an official member of our family
00:34:23Really nice to know what Brake thinks about adoptees and all Bataar really amounts to after this is showing how far gone Kuvira
00:34:30worth losing Kuvira for
00:34:33Let's go back home and get married
00:34:35He isn't worth sacrificing our life together. I love you Bataar as we work out terms with Kuvira. We'll let you out of here
00:34:43Guys, she must have our location. She's pointing that weapon right at us. No, she wouldn't
00:35:00Bataar really amounts to after this is showing how far gone Kuvira is by trying to laser him in the face later in the season
00:35:06It's like everything else Kuvira does. It's just offhandedly mentioned
00:35:09You know how people often say Korra walked so Steven Universe could run well
00:35:39I'm not certain I'd agree with that, but it certainly did run so She-Ra could sprint and
00:35:52I'm not sure if I agree with that
00:35:59It certainly did run so She-Ra could sprint and
00:36:09Oh
00:36:18Terrible horrible evil thought just occurred to me
00:36:39But it certainly did well, I'm not certain I'd agree with that but it certainly
00:36:54Work out terms with Kuvira. You're right
00:37:02But it certainly did run so She-Ra
00:37:09You
00:37:18All right, I know what I have to do and I definitely have the strength to do it
00:37:39I
00:37:44Run so She-Ra could sprint and all of that's a shame because out of every villain in the series
00:37:48Kuvira is the only one who was just a regular person who stepped up on some
00:38:01My god
00:38:04I
00:38:05Not terrified. I'm not terrified. You're oh god. Damn it. Oh, oh, don't do that. Definitely do that. Yes, but don't do that
00:38:13It's the camera. What is that?
00:38:20This is not a real TV Trump's page
00:38:23Oh
00:38:31My god do board just use the fucking emotes
00:38:39It's right fucking there
00:38:53I
00:39:23Should be able to find the problem is gone. The distributor pin is gone. I locked it in place yesterday
00:39:53Oh
00:39:57Yeah, noob Lord, you're not a subscriber anymore
00:40:00You
00:40:20And all of that's a shame because out of every villain in the series
00:40:23Kuvira is the only one who was just a regular person who stepped up when someone needed to she had the potential for such an
00:40:28Interesting perspective that no other antagonist could ever have she grew up in a place where?
00:40:48208 220 12 minutes of footage left to go
00:40:58The criminals after me if you're concerned the criminals after me the criminals we're leaving
00:41:04She's just a little worried because there were a bunch of crazy criminals after me in my company
00:41:10Future industries reverted back to me after you plotted to abduct the president
00:41:16Anywho, how's our company doing? You mean my company you
00:41:20That's not all I'm all right enough. She's really into you
00:41:25Neither of us knew our fathers and
00:41:29I
00:41:41Chosen twitch chat itself and on the overlay. No, it's not there either
00:41:52Everyone is free to live how she grew up in a place where everyone is free to live how they wanted while also living in
00:41:57Relative safety, why wouldn't she want to bring that to the rest of her home?
00:42:00It doesn't even have to be without issue. I'm not saying Kuvira is the good guy
00:42:16It doesn't even have to be without issue
00:42:18I'm not saying Kuvira is the good guy
00:42:20Actually, my favorite moment in this series is when Kuvira and the governor are arguing because it's the distance
00:42:25It doesn't even have to be without issue, I'm
00:42:34Yeah, Kuvira is the good guy actually my favorite moment in this series
00:42:45We call you the great join up
00:42:47I
00:42:53Runner are arguing because it's the distillation of what usually happens when leaders get into power struggles like this to people
00:43:00Jockeying to be the one with the controlling like this, too
00:43:12Be the one with the controlling stake in a region while the actual citizens are caught in the middle
00:43:16I could certainly see Kuvira growing less patient and more controlling the longer the entire project goes on
00:43:21This is certainly not the first fiefdom that's been stubborn about accepting her help, but just going the route. I
00:43:28Could certainly see Kuvira caught in the middle
00:43:30I could certainly see Kuvira growing less patient more could never help but just going the route of the power went to her head
00:43:36She's putting her dissenters into camps. She's exploiting states for their resources route is so boring
00:43:42again, like with every other season if you
00:43:47And then have this happen
00:43:58Like with every other season if you
00:44:03The
00:44:06big ideas actually be about big ideas this isn't anything new in storytelling it's been a and then
00:44:11have this happen i'd like to make an announcement to the world like with every other season if you
00:44:16want to be about big ideas actually be about big ideas this isn't anything new in store
00:44:25you leave don't hurt me don't hurt me
00:44:36like with every other season if you want to be about big ideas actually be about big ideas this
00:44:51isn't anything new in storytelling it's been a cliche for over a decade now but kora was one of
00:44:55the earliest shows to go hey magneto was peak fiction actually and it arguably started a trend
00:45:00kora is at least partially responsible for inflicting ruby on the world and bright should
00:45:04have to spend a few years counting pennies at a bank for that
00:45:08so
00:45:33let her cook universe
00:47:08One second, everyone.
00:50:38Uh, you don't want to work today, do you?
00:50:54You all good?

01:08:50This was the desktop wallpaper from hell.
01:08:56Ability is the black shit you'll ever see in your life, is a lesson I learned in 2016, and one I really wish I'd learned two years sooner.
01:09:01Yep!
01:09:01Ha ha ha ha!
01:09:02Ah man, part of growing up is realizing that, man, evil really is just not complicated.
01:09:10There is a, there is a TV show out there, I'm about to show it to you, that ends with the end of the fucking world.
01:09:17And the guy who caused it says that's a fourth quarter problem.
01:09:25Flipper!
01:09:26Wah!
01:09:27Bunch of tree-hugging panty-waists!
01:09:29They're always standing in the way of progress, and it's our job to pay right over them!
01:09:34I think you're missing the point, sir!
01:09:36The world may be coming to an end!
01:09:38Well, that's a fourth quarter problem!
01:09:40We'll drop a bomb on that bridge when we come to it!
01:09:46...
01:09:48...
01:09:50...
01:09:52Some people think the greedy businessman who only wants more and more money is a cartoon character,
01:09:56but no, that's literally how capitalism works.
01:09:59Look into the history of a serial killer, and nine times out of ten their motivation for their crimes is misogyny,
01:10:04and the tenth one is racism.
01:10:06...
01:10:08...
01:10:10...
01:10:12...
01:10:14...
01:10:30...
01:11:02But no, that's literally how capitalism works.
01:11:31Look into the history of a serial killer, and 9 times out of 10 their motivation for
01:11:35their crimes is misogyny, and the 10th one is racism.
01:12:01School shooters often leave fascist manifestos behind detailing how much they hate women
01:12:20and or non-white people.
01:12:22As teenagers, we're taught that instability in the Middle East is the result of many different
01:12:26people being unable to get along.

01:13:23As an adult, you learn that instability in the Middle East is a result of the U.S. funneling
01:13:27weapons into a rogue, warmongering state.

01:14:25The Korean and Vietnam War was a direct result of the U.S. and the Soviet Union using other
01:14:29countries as pawns in their political dick-measuring contests.
01:14:32We're in a period where we have presidential candidates talking about how much they want
01:14:36to bang their own daughters, and we're still going to pretend that villainy is complicated?

01:16:13The idea of an equality activist going too far or an abuse victim turning around and
01:16:38becoming an abuser are actually so rare that I would consider making one of them into the
01:16:42villain in your story to be straight-up slander.
01:16:45People take these things into real life.
01:16:46These are things some people actually believe because of stories like this.
01:17:05People take these things into real life.
01:17:06These are things some people actually believe because of stories like this.
01:17:10So the more complicated your story is, the more trying to force it to bear the weight
01:17:14of a villain is going to be a bad call.
01:17:16Either you've seriously misjudged the situation, or you need to get over this attachment to
01:17:20villains as a concept.
01:17:38Kuvira is such a weird case because every character in the season is some level of a

01:23:07A big part of what's wrong with Korra is just how even worse now.
01:23:10The United Republic probably sounded like a good idea in 2012, but it sure as fuck doesn't
01:23:14now in a time where most of the audience for Korra is very much aware of how settler colonialism
01:23:19tends to play out in real life.

01:26:29And even fighting the avatar and winning. In a less weird series, she would have been an antagonist
01:26:34I would be actively excited about seeing get bounced off a curb. This was why Ozai worked so well as a character. He's imposed
01:26:50Good work, Toph. Time to take-
01:26:52Oh
01:27:01The universe delivers you to me as an act of Providence
01:27:07universe delivers you to
01:27:14Ozai worked so well as a character. He's imposing and threatening and so deliciously hateable
01:27:19You're just looking forward to Aang kicking his ass. Some people think it's bad

01:27:52He's imposing and threatening and so deliciously hateable. You're just looking forward to Aang kicking his ass. Some people think it's bad to think a villain is cool or badass, but the fun of a villain when you have-
01:28:22You can't hide in there forever. You can't hide in there forever.

01:29:00Some people think it's bad to think a villain is cool or badass, but the fun of a villain when you have them properly is hyping up that final confrontation.
01:29:07My favorite point of comparison is Xehanort, a villain who spends an entire decade giving you more and more reason-
01:29:24to be a villain.
01:29:39Stuck again, give it a sec.
01:29:54History.
01:29:59No.
01:30:00Say that again.
01:30:01Because Ansem?
01:30:02No.
01:30:04So, Sora?
01:30:05Vouch for that?
01:30:07W-Wh-Who-What?
01:30:08Die.
01:30:14REKT.
01:30:14Basically a marked death.
01:30:15As an excuse to repeat that.
01:30:17How dare you kill me?
01:30:19I was merely doing my duty.
01:30:21So you think I'm lazy.
01:30:23great person
01:30:30People believed that light was a gift
01:30:39Point of comparison is Xehanort a villain who spends an entire decade giving you more and more
01:30:43reasons to want to pound his face into the dirt and then you finally get to and you hear that boss music and rage awaken
01:30:50Starts playing and you go. This is my boss theme bitch, and it's the greatest moment. You've been teased for 13 years for that's a
01:30:56Villain see that's a fucking villain Kuvira outside of the mess
01:31:00That is the story has all the hallmarks of one of the best villains avatar has ever had
01:31:04She's not just imposing and threatening. She's also just a smug bastard
01:31:08She takes huge gambits with the other characters and outplays them constantly
01:31:21You're or the bandits who
01:31:32Kuvira outside of the mess that is the story has all the hallmarks of one of the best villains avatar has ever had

01:31:50Takes huge gambits with the other characters and outplays them constantly
01:31:58Takes huge gambits with the other characters and outplays them constantly
01:32:06A little fucking dance you asshole
01:32:09This is where I end up conflicted because everything about the story would work so much better if Kuvira wasn't a villain
01:32:14But Kuvira as a villain is fucking fun. She's
01:32:20Kuvira outside of the mess that is the story has all the hallmarks of one of the best villains avatar has ever had
01:32:27She's not just imposing and threatening. She's also just a smug bastard. She takes huge gambits with the other characters and outplays them constantly
01:32:33She's not just imposing and threatening. She's also just a smug bastard. She takes huge gambits with the other characters and outplays them constantly
01:32:39Kuvira wasn't a villain but Kuvira as a villain is fucking fun
01:32:51Kuvira as a villain is fucking fun. She's the first fun villain the series has had
01:32:57It's like her presence was written first and then stuck in the worst possible place for her to be
01:33:03Always will
01:33:20She's the first fun villain the series has had it's like her presence was written first and then stuck in the worst possible place
01:33:26For her to be she's like if you took Irenicus and stuck him right to be she's
01:33:51Oh
01:33:57Actually, I know what I need for this
01:34:20Oh, do I have it though, do I have it I know I had it for one whatever
01:34:50See
01:35:20Oh
01:35:50I
01:35:56Am NOT keeping proper track of
01:36:20You
01:36:50You
01:37:00Can play either the most likable of people the most evil of people brilliantly. Oh, yeah
01:37:20I
01:37:25Will no longer listen to the babbling of ignorant
01:37:36Cease your spellcast magics are useless. Let this end
01:37:46You will be overwhelmed
01:37:50You
01:37:57She's like if you took Irenicus and stuck him right in the
01:38:02She's like if you took Irenicus and stuck him right in the middle of disco Elysium
01:38:06in fact
01:38:06I can think of another character who would have been a much better suited for Kuvira's role as a villain even with this story a
01:38:12Character who has been portrayed up to this point as controlling authoritarian
01:38:20To a degree that can come off as extremely worrying but for whom most characters would be hesitant to accept because of their
01:38:25Pre-existing relationship with them. You think just because you live in a big fancy house and have a chef who cooks you fancy food that you're
01:38:31A different person maybe you can fool everyone else, but you can't fool me if Lynn had been the one reuniting the Earth Kingdom
01:38:37She would have gone totalitarian in many ways
01:38:41She's like if you took Irenicus and stuck him right in the middle of disco Elysium in the middle of disco Elysium
01:38:47She's like if you took Irenicus and had been the one reuniting the Earth Kingdom she would have gone totalitarian in minutes
01:39:10Oh, right
01:39:17If Lyn had been the one reuniting the Earth Kingdom, she would have gone totalitarian
01:39:29in minutes.
01:39:31Oh, right. Don't forget the Pokemon.
01:39:47Oh, right.
01:39:50One more thing.
01:40:00As forcing airbender, the Earth Queen.
01:40:10You're here for an animal.
01:40:12Spear it into it.
01:40:14Let's get all the elite books.
01:40:17The old Dai Li agents used to have a cot.
01:40:20I can project my spirit in.
01:40:23Maybe they're ever.
01:40:26Thank you.
01:40:30Cover of darkness.
01:40:37What's going on?
01:40:38Lyn, what are you doing here?
01:40:41We need to get.
01:40:48If Lyn had been the one reuniting the Earth Kingdom, she would have gone totalitarian in minutes and not hesitated about it.
01:40:55Lyn has such a need for control and stability that it often ends up going to her head.
01:40:59To the point she even tries to play controlling mom to the.
01:41:08You should have called the police.
01:41:15Need for control and stability that it often ends up going to her head.
01:41:18To the point she even tries to play controlling mom to the.
01:41:21The tunnel could be other secret agents in other parts of the world to protect me.
01:41:31I'm the Avatar.
01:41:32This is my job.
01:41:33Don't lecture me about jobs.
01:41:42When she even tries to play controlling mom to the Avatar of all people, Lyn already had the personality profile to become a dictator.
01:41:48All she would need is a little push.
01:41:50Hell, everything I said before about Kuvira potentially giving the Avatar space to recoup.
01:42:02A dictator.
01:42:03All she would need is a little push.
01:42:05Hell, everything I said before.
01:42:14The more I'm editing this, the more I get into a rhythm.
01:42:21Dude isn't hereditary.
01:42:25Convince them.
01:42:30Hey, I'm blind, not deaf.
01:42:32But it didn't really work out.
01:42:34And I can feel you're in anger on the fact that I grew up without a dad.
01:42:38No need to get all touchy-feely about it.
01:42:40Just one of those things, right?
01:42:41Hey, I forgave you for all your garbage a long time ago.
01:42:46And Sue and I worked things out.
01:42:48You're the only one who wants to hold on to this family drama nonsense for the rest of your life.
01:42:54Forgave me for what?
01:42:55And not knowing my debt?
01:42:57And until now, you would never even discuss it.
01:42:59You know, after Sue and I...
01:43:06Hell, everything I said before about Kuvira potentially giving the Avatar space to recuperate goes double for Lyn.
01:43:12To the point Korra would come home, see what's happened to one of her mentors, and be genuinely conflicted.
01:43:17Goes double for Lyn.
01:43:20To Mom.
01:43:21Now that we're together again, I remember why we stopped.
01:43:24I thought, maybe I should try to reach out to Mom.
01:43:27But now that we're together again, I remember why we stopped talking.
01:43:31You make me furious, and you don't even know why.
01:43:34And when I tell you, you don't care.
01:43:36Once we save Sue, you and I are finished.
01:43:41If that's your decision and it makes you happy, then fine.
01:43:48It was a guy named Kuv-
01:43:52It's a very-
01:43:54Get out alive.
01:43:55What are you-
01:44:04Couple of years.
01:44:06How would you feel if someone who professed-
01:44:09See what's happened to one of her mentors, and be genuinely-
01:44:13To the point Korra would come home, see what's happened to one of her mentors, and be genuinely conflicted.
01:44:19How would you feel if someone who professed to care about you not only went against everything you'd ever believed, but did it in your name?
01:44:26Dammit, I gotta stop writing fanfiction in my serious critique videos.
01:44:29See, that's the problem with Korra as a property. It's trying to be two things that don't go well toge-
01:44:37To stand down. Turn your army around-
01:44:43To stand down. Turn your army around.
01:44:53It's trying to be two things that don't go well together.
01:44:56My example above-
01:44:57Lin is the only-
01:44:58My example-
01:45:02Don't go well together.
01:45:03My example-

01:45:10My example above-

01:45:15My example above with Lin is the only way you make a traditional villain work,
01:45:18and you do it by deprioritizing the politics and focusing on character-based story-
01:45:23And you do it by deprioritizing the politics and focusing on character-based storytelling.
01:45:28But instead, the show wants to be political at its core, and every season starts out doing that very well.

01:45:43The show wants to be political at its core, and every season starts out doing that very well.
01:45:47But sooner or later, the comp-
01:45:49Very well, but-
01:45:54But sooner or later, the compulsive need for a villain undermines all of it.
01:45:58It's hard to get invested in a story-
01:46:02Peter!
01:46:03I pointed in you, Junior.
01:46:06Take them away!
01:46:07I pointed in you, Junior.
01:46:09Take them away!
01:46:12Do it!
01:46:13All who pledged-
01:46:14Ours!
01:46:19Zaofu is ours!
01:46:21Bring the citizens of Zaofu to-
01:46:31The compulsive need for a villain undermines all of it.
01:46:34It's hard to get invested in a story that starts out with the frictions between cultures,
01:46:38trying to assert their own unique identity,
01:46:40and ends with defeating Satan with the power of believing in-
01:46:44Between cultures, trying-
01:46:46It's hard-
01:46:49And undermines all of it.
01:46:50It's hard to get invested in a stor-
01:46:59And protect it.
01:47:00I need you for something more important.
01:47:02Open it.
01:47:03Spirits and man will be able to-
01:47:12It's hard to get invested in a story that starts out with the frictions between cultures,
01:47:16trying to assert their own unique identity,
01:47:18and ends with defeating Satan with the power of believing in yourself.
01:47:22At times it feels condescending, like-
01:47:27No!
01:47:33Satan with the power of believing in yourself.
01:47:35At times it feels condescending, like they don't think you're smart enough to realize how-
01:47:39Yes, I have read that long ago, the ancients would meditate-
01:47:43The thing about you is not the spirit of Raava.
01:47:51Condescending, like they don't think you're smart enough to realize how much they've chickened out
01:47:55of the very ideas they set up in the first place.
01:47:57Hell, the series tries its best to act like it didn't do that.
01:48:00What did Amon want? Equality for all.
01:48:04Unalaq, he brought back the spirits.
01:48:07And Zaheer believed in freedom.
01:48:11I guess.
01:48:12The problem was, those guys were totally out of balance,
01:48:16and they took their ideologies too far.
01:48:18This is the writer straight up lying to you.
01:48:21Amon didn't want equality for all, the whole plot of season one is that he-
01:48:25This is the writer straight up lying-
01:48:30Okay, fine. But that doesn't explain why they keep hunting-
01:48:39And they took their ideologies too far.
01:48:41This is the writer straight up lying to you.
01:48:44Amon didn't want equality-
01:48:53Amon-
01:49:00Amon-
01:49:20Amon didn't want equality for all, the whole plot of season one is that he's the biggest fucking liar on the planet.
01:49:25He wanted to destroy bending. It had nothing to do with equality.
01:49:28Unalaq didn't bring back the spirits, Korra did.
01:49:31Unalaq was going to destroy the world and remake it in chaos.
01:49:34Chaos.
01:49:44I support you.
01:49:57The spirits, Korra did.
01:49:59Unalaq was going to destroy the world and remake it in chaos.
01:50:04Zaheer believes in nothing, he's just ultimately following the rest of the agenda of the Red Lotus.
01:50:09An agenda so nonsensical that it's canon is that nobody knew what the hell their grievances were.
01:50:27He's just ultimately following the rest of the agenda of the Red Lotus.
01:50:30An agenda so nonsensical that it's canon is that nobody knew what the hell their grievances were.
01:50:35It may have been how those stories started, but it certainly wasn't how they ended.
01:50:38They didn't take their ideologies too far, their ideologies either changed or were revealed to be nonsense.
01:50:44The show acts like it actually stuck the landing with their own antagonist when it just didn't.
01:51:01It may have been how those stories started, but it certainly wasn't how they ended.
01:51:04They didn't take their ideologies too far, their ideologies either changed or were revealed to be nonsense.
01:51:09The show acts like it actually stuck the landing with their own antagonist when it just didn't.
01:51:25Sounds like the swamp's messing with your mind too.
01:51:30Sounds like the swamp's messing with your mind too.
01:51:33Acts like it actually stuck the landing with their own antagonist when it just didn't.
01:51:37It shows that Brike really thought they achieved something here when all they did was chicken out,
01:51:41and they think you, the viewer, are too stupid to notice that.
01:51:44Some people think you're supposed to engage at the...
01:51:46...grove tree.
01:51:47Face your fears.
01:51:49You can't expect to deal with future enemies if you're still fighting the old one.
01:51:54It doesn't explain why they keep hunt...
01:52:01Some people think you're supposed to engage at the story on its terms,
01:52:04so if it thinks that's what it was about, then we need to treat it like that.
01:52:07But people only ever say that when a story they like is being criticized.
01:52:11Execution is still a crucial aspect of critique.
01:52:15You had...
01:52:17You need to...
01:52:18Milo, Jinora, and E...
01:52:26Execution is still a crucial aspect of critique, and Korra fumbled the execution hard.
01:52:30Furthermore, can we talk about how weak and philosophically lazy they took it too far?
01:52:38...tingly.
01:52:41I get it.
01:52:42Problem was, those guys were totally out of balance,
01:52:45and they took their ideologies too far.
01:52:53...about how weak and philosophically lazy they took it too far is as a villain story?
01:52:58This is just the horseshoe theory.
01:53:00I know Avatar has always been about balance,
01:53:02but that shouldn't be balanced between oppression and no oppression.
01:53:05Virtually all the villains are in some way...
01:53:08Virtually all the villains are in some way about tearing down the establishment in varying degrees,
01:53:13so no wonder a lot of people tar this show as being pro-status quo.
01:53:16Some of its defenders think the show is divisive because it was...
01:53:24I know I...
01:53:25Kuvira's army!
01:53:38...are in some way about tearing down the establishment in varying degrees,
01:53:42so no wonder a lot of people tar this show as being pro-status quo.
01:53:45Some of its defenders think the show is divisive because it was...
