I was curious about that as well, to where I at first thought the Sky Bison that brought Tenzin and his family there was Appa, but then he called it by a completely different name where I did some research. Apparently there were some wild sky bison in the Airbending mountains somewhere, where Aang managed to tame them.

I liked how Korra tried to do that and got smacked down. Toph doing work setting up those metal benders.

I love that about the new Avatar. It seems that all the past ones were all fairly reluctant to be the all powerful, basically immortal badass, but it is such a breath of fresh air that we got a new Avatar that truly embraces their destiny and relishes in it. One who loves to shatter the bones of her opponents before sending them to the ICU. I really think I'm going to like this character due to her more aggressive nature.

I'm interested in learning more about the villain, who seems to be a non-bender, and how he'll be able to stack up with the Avatar.

The second episode is now online here on the main website and in HD (First episode plays before it though): LINK
And yet again, the episode is pretty amazing. If they can keep up with this quality in episodes, then it will blow the previous series out of the water. The pro-bending is really exciting to watch, explains the rules very well, and love the evolution the bending took to a more boxing/kickboxing style in the arena. The pacing is breakneck, and I love the delving more into Airbending, the bending art that was the least explored or explained in the original series. So far I'm liking Mako and Bolin as well.

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER
I feel like you are hinting that this person may be the villian seen in ep 1

A little too predictable. I doubt it.

just guessing they but I think you would be disappointed with the latter half of the show.
After watching Ep 1 & 2, it seems like they doing the opposite of Aang. The last series he had trouble finding masters to teach him the physical part of bending the other elements.
With Korra they seem to be strongly hinting it's the spiritual side of being the Avatar she will struggle with.
PS I would really like for them to kill of Aang's grandson by episode 4. kid looks strange and is annoying

I don't see any reason why I would be.

Yeah, it's the direction they needed to take the show in order to avoid going into old territory. Aang didn't really have much of a problem mastering the spiritual side of being the Avatar, he just didn't know how to do it, but once he got instructions on how to, he caught up pretty easily. I'm thinking the Second Book will have more to do with Korra mastering the Avatar State because I'm thinking she has much less control over it than Aang did.

I liked him more in the first episode than the second, but he's like 3 or something and I definitely like the girls more than him.

I don't really see it. Sure the younger one is a bit bubbly like Ty Lee, but I don't see that much of Ty Lee in her.

Hate to be noobish, but bump.

It's pretty amusing to hear J K Simmons as the frustrated Dad. I loved the oldest daughters response to him asking them to promise not to be like Korra when they grow up.
The pro bending was done well, should be a nice little subplot for the early episodes.

Yeah, I'm liked that as well. To be honest Aang's grandkids are kinda creeping me out to how similar they are to my cousins when they were younger. Really makes me like them more.

Linked it in a post already. Watch it now since they're supposedly taking it down at the end of the day and the quality is pretty great: LINK

Thanks OML. I'm really looking forward to this new series.
