What are your impressions after the hour long premiere?

I like the World i like the characters and like the idea of pro bending.

 

[DarkRyter]

I watched it a few weeks ago on KorraNation.

It's pretty awesome, yeah.

 

[dalek sec]

Well looks like I have a reason to get early on saturday mornings now. That was freaking amazing and I'm usally more of a sci-fi person so I'm sold on it.

I wish I could watch it on tv to support but I cannot so I will have to hope other people do and just watch it online.

 

[Kevlar Eater]

I'm giving it a chance, something I didn't exactly give to this show's predecessor. I'll give it more of a chance next Saturday.

Here's to hoping too much doesn't fly over my head (or require a wikia to understand).

 

[Crenelate]

Loved it. The first show is one of my favorites, hands down, and it's so exciting to get back in the world. Also enjoyed the first volume of The Promise

 

[Terminate421]

I like it. The writing and dialogue are actually good and the concept is brilliant.

 

[Lugbzurg]

That. Was. Amazing! After just seeing the first two episodes fused together, I think they've already surpassed the greatness of the original. There's already so much going on, there are some more concepts added for complexity, such as the "Pro-Bending" and the "Non-bender oppression", not to mention, even more culture infused!

Something about it also seemed to whisper "Naruto" at me, particularity in the scene with the "cops". And, now that I think of it, I guess that scene kind of makes me think of Spiderman, as well.

An absolutely brilliant masterpiece!

The style of the art for anything that is animated is drastically different from the background art. It works just fine most of the time but sometimes it kind of clashed for me. Mainly because I think the quality of the scenery is so much higher than the rest. Wasn't much of a big deal but it did kind of irritate me at the start. The art is generally a really high quality, nice to see in a western animation.

The music was great, obvious Jazz influences with a little bit of classical every now and then. I think this is the part which I generally liked the most. I pay far too much attention to the music in these kind of things, and it really is top notch here.

The characters and story so far aren't anything innovative. You have the hot headed person who thinks with their heart, the stoic mysterious guy who probably has a dark past, the old teacher who is behind the times etc etc. However, it's all executed so well that I didn't really mind.

Also, Steve Blum is the voice actor for the bad guy. He was only in it for like 5 seconds but I still recognised the voice. I mean, how I could I not notice the voice of Spike Seagal and Onizuka?

There you go, that's my views on the matter from another Legend of Korra topic.

I liked the characters. The animation is gorgeous. The voice acting is spot on.
I found the city to be rather uninspired and bland. It seems to have copied every cyberpunk city ever, without giving it a personality of its own.
Also, was kinda bummed that the original party is all six feet under except for Kitara (the character I liked the least).

Agreed, for the most part.
Oh, and it's Spike Spiegel.

 

[Sonicron]

Loved it. Huzzah for Cave Johnson as Airbending Sensei. xD

Me and my wife were watching it, and that scene came up. She turned and said, "who is that? He sounds familiar?"

I jokingly said, "It's steven blum, he's in everything." I did not know at the time it actually was steven blum until i looked it up later and then promptly laughed my ass off.

It was awesome, and I'm going to go for a future sight and call that the bad guy is Fire Lord Ozai again. How is he still alive? No idea, but I feel like he would be the perfect anti-bending guy after Aang stopped him from using his bending. That and why else would he were a mask other than to stop us from knowing who he really is >.<

Yeah I know how wrong I am but still.

That shocked the hell out of me when my friend told me about that. So it looks like I have yet another reason to tune in. XD

But throne those kids are hyper... where's the amasec when you need it?

 

[Lord Beautiful]

Loved it. Looking forward to more episodes.

What struck me especially was how they actually touched on the idea of fighting styles going modern. In the context of bending, I see a shit-load of potential in this.

 

[Lugbzurg]

Something else I just remembered was how the show blatantly trolled us all at the beginning, when a little girl asked what happened to Zuko's mother. Just then, some obnoxious little snot popped in and started making noise!

 

[MercurySteam]

I genuinely liked it and its good to see the characters are still brilliantly written. Looking forward to more episodes.
