Awesome episode, reminded me of Alice in Wonderland. Loved Tenzin's voice actor, you can hear his voice break at the end:

"What happened to my little girl?!"

Really hoping he'll reveal a bit more depth in the inevitable villainous monologue... unfortunately the monologue really is inevitable at this point, :unsure:


It feels like a lost cause now. Ignoring his injured son in the previous episode was pretty bad. Threatening, then proceeding to destroy a child's soul is so far over the line that there isn't any coming back IMO. Then Unalaq tried to destroy Korra after she acquiesced. Really, at this point he seems worse than Firelord Ozai ever was. The only thing that could redeem Unalaq in my mind is if we learn Vaatu was mind controlling him; or replaced him with a spirit clone at young age. Y'know, some absolutely ridiculous contrivance. XD

Bad as Amon and Tarrlok were, they had understandable reasons for their actions. Well, Amon's motivations weren't really clear; but at least his cause made sense. I actually felt bad over how tragically their story ended. Unalaq? Man, I'm hoping he realizes the error of his ways three seconds before Vaatu devours him whole, never to be seen again. >.>

While it might redeem Unalaq my opinion of this show would be lessened. It already kind of is anyway.

Indeed, it would redeem him in the worst way possible. Hence my referring to it as ridiculous. They have to ride this to its logical conclusion now. Anything less will only seem worse. This isn't Naruto, dammit. O.o

I have a feeling the "spirtual bending" is also apart of energy bending and Unalaq might of gotten corrupted from learning it's way and might of already had some "issues" inside him that is being expressed through his bending, which leads to more corruption.

I'm tired of protagonists falling for the oldest negotiation trick in the book of "Do this or this will happen to someone you care about". Of course Korra opened the portal and DIDN'T get Jinora back. Freaking idiot.

Good to see Iroh and his pot belly though.

After watching the last four episodes, it seems that Star Wars Rebels will have some competition from this show after all.

Maybe if it turns out Vaatu's been influencing him for decades...  That might help a little without being too damaging.

I swear though, if the Book 3's antagonist is another Water Bender...

So what do you think Katara will do to Unalaq when she learns he wanted to destroy/corrupt her granddaughter's spirit?

It'd be nice if she'd just bloodbend him apart. Even though she'd never to that, even to someone like him.

Will she learn anything? I don't know...

Huh, well that was different. When Korra tried to attack the spirit prairie dogs, for a minute there I thought I was watching "republican space rangers".

The next four episodes in this season -- i.e., the last chapters in the Book of Spirit -- are titled:

Night of A Thousand Stars

Harmonic Convergence

Darkness Falls

Light in the Dark

Then, the next two seasons/books are supposedly called "Dark" and finally  "Light".  (Basically, Nickolodean ordered three seasons of Korra after the first one, the Book of Air.  So Spirit, Dark and Light are the three ordered seasons.)

Foreboding...

Based on those title cards it can be wildly speculated that Korra will lose and this conflict will encompass what's left of this series. It strikes me as a bit of an AtLA retread if so. Not necessarily a bad thing, as long as it's fun to watch. I just hope they do something different with it.

That would seem to be the case, yes. Hopefully it won't be because Vaatu fuses with Unalaq or one such.<_<

...That actually seems likely.  Or at least one individual will be going the "Dark Avater" way.

I don't think I could bear two seasons about the Light vs. Dark Avatars.

Hopefully not, I agree, but considering the Book titles I'd say that a conflict like that in some form is implied, unless they're purely philosophical.

Damn, Korra really sucks at her job.

A freaking 12 year old did better job then her.

I finished watching last week's episode and i'm not amused with Unalaq or Korra. Considering how lenient the powers that be are, i wonder what Unalaq's punishment will be if he isn't killed by Vaatu or suicides?

Jail time seems like a weaksauce punishment though.

Assuming the entire world doesn't plummet into ten thousand years of darkness? I'm guessing Unalaq will be ousted as leader of the water tribes and executed. Based on what almost happened to Korra's dad, water tribe justice is friggin' harsh. This is all assuming Unalaq's treachery can be proven. I doubt his followers will take Korra at her word given her previously supporting the southern water tribe in the war.

As far as the light versus dark avatar theory being kicked around...

I suppose it wouldn't bother me much. I don't mind the whole dark versus light angle, cliché as it may be. It mostly depends on how they execute it. If they can make it so dark isn't necessarily evil--sort of like a ying-yang thing, it might be interesting. If not, which is more likely, it could still be interesting depending on how it ends.

For instance, if the avatar had Raava *and* Vaatu within them it could make for interesting stories in future series about the duality of man, yada yada. But I suppose that's a topic that's always been of great personal interest to me. I may be biased. :P

Worst case scenario, I would probably *still* enjoy it. I'm sick and tired of stories chock full of shades of grey. Seriously, not every story has to go that route just because we're still riding a grimdark phase in popular fiction.

Nah OdanUrr that's too lenient, unless afterwards he's been handed over to a Ramsay Bolton expy?

Another good punishment after being energy bended would be Unalaq watching Bolin's films on repeat for life.
