as of now, episode 10 is my new favorite. first of all, you have the airbender kids flying in to save lin- who is by far the most badass character in the series. then asami shows us her fighting skills, and mako actually does something. i don't about you guys, but for the last episodes i felt like mako was just there for relationship purposes. but in this episode, he actually did something that was pretty cool in my opinion, which was redirecting lighting/electric shocks.

although this was the episode that lin loses her bending, it's still my favorite cause now she will be forever a hero to me in the series. also, she took it like a boss- not like tahno (who i love and all).

and last but not least, general iroh makes an appearance! finally, i've been dying to see who dante was going to voice. it was killing me! in all honesty, i was kind of hoping for dante to voice the grandson of azula or something.... but i don't azula would ever have kids cause she scares the guys away :(

anyway, i can't wait for the next episode. korra has to go into the avatar state!

Thank you for reminding me of the cool thing Mako did. I kind of forgot about that in the middle of being mad that he was a douche, a drama magnet and generally useless. But that moment was pretty awesome.

but i don't azula would ever have kids cause she scares the guys away :(

lol that's true, but it's a very interesting concept.

korra has to go into the avatar state!

I don't know if she's really ready for that, but idk if she can afford to wait much longer. And I would LOVE to see it, really.

She needs more focus on her spiritual life. It would be nice if they made it all tie in. And I just REALLY want to see her communicate directly with Aang!

god, mako was annoying the hell out of me in this episode! i mean, i get that he was worried for korra because she got kidnapped and stuff, but at least have the decency to pay some attention to your girlfriend when she wants to talk.

and i agree, korra needs to be more spiritual. after all that's an important component to unlocking the avatar state, and learning how to airbend.
