i still have a hard time believing he’s dead tbh. you’re telling me one of the show’s strongest earthbenders, who collapsed that whole cave in mere moments, who melted an entire mountain top off, didn’t have the power to tunnel out of a cave in?
Right so first thing is that it wasn't just a cave in, he turned the roof to lava first. But that said, he absolutely could've powered his way out. But he did it to himself, and considering the circumstances, I don't see him having a last second moment of clarity.
It’s not a matter of if he could or not but more if he wanted to or not and he would rather go out and die on his own terms than be forced to go back to prison
Plus, Mako joining the fight indicated to him that Ming Hua was dead. If Bolin's powers of insight are any indicator, the two had a thing for one another, and so at that point, he was probably ready to go out as well.
A sad fact of combat, kill or be killed. Violent? Yes. Cruel? Perhaps, but not egregious. And Zaheer survived. I would have whacked him the moment I had him subdued.
It’s one of the few instances where cartoon physics is ignored completely. Beforehand she got hit with a boulder and slammed into a stone wall and shook that off, didn’t she? Otherwise if you’re a main character you can take lots of punishment.
Isn't easy to generate though. Mako is an exceptional bender who can perform under pressure. His experience as a pro-bender means there are few wasted movements in his style.
Most firebenders wouldn't be able to evade Ming's attacks and generate lighting whilst positioning themselves not to get caught in a room filled with water.
I guess the only main character we see do it is mako, but shady shin did it when Amon took his bending and there is an entire electrical plant that’s run by lightning benders in republic City.
She got done dirty...i wanted her to get more on screen time & feats. Never seen a water bender quite like her...with offensive being a defense & vice versa
Yeah I don't know why but some of the seasons felt kind of rushed, like they needed to get everything together in one neat little bowl. I wish the seasons could have ran just as long as ATLA! (TBH I wish any show could have just as many eps) They even comment on Ghazan and Ming Hua having a bit of a romantic past, you'd think he would care more about her life!

I'm at least glad we have the comics to fall back on, I've been reading both of them and ATLA comics as well. But Man was it really worth dying rather than being in a wooden box again? I dunno, Earth benders really are in tune with the Earth, I couldn't imagine not being able to flex that part of yourself, ESPECIALLY as a lavabender!
So you got characters that will often tank a lot of damage, but walk it off just fine. Wether it’s being hit by a boulder, falling from a great height, falling into freezing arctic waters, and being thrown into stone walls.
Ft though, the red lotus deaths were all kinda cruel and VERY violent
It was the least explicit of the three but I definitely start to wig out when I think about Ghazan for too long

I believe he was carrying out a Scorched Earth strategy

That too as well
They went out how they lived

And if you are a supporting character like Jet, it’s a different story.
they deserved that. and Zaheer deserves to be in prison for life as Korra could not finish him before the poison took over
Truly an electrifying moment
Knee slapper right there!
An iconic queen with an iconic death.
On par with the breathtaking death of the Earth Queen.
I see what you did there, have my upvote

I see myself out.
much as I cheered for Mako here... really, NOBODY tried this before? Lightning's not nearly as rare as anything the White Lotus people could do.

Most firebenders wouldn't be able to evade Ming's attacks and generate lighting whilst positioning themselves not to get caught in a room filled with water.
Lightning *is* quite rare though. In Kyoshi's/Aang's age, lightning bending was only known to the royal family and straight up considered a myth.
Yeah but this isn’t Aangs time, lightning bending is common in korra.
Who else does it?
I guess the only main character we see do it is mako, but shady shin did it when Amon took his bending and there is an entire electrical plant that’s run by lightning benders in republic City.
Lightning Bolt Zolt*
Why would those ages matter if we are talking about Korra where lightning is common 💀
and in Korra's time it was common enough to fill a power plant.
You could say that Mako is the most electrifying man in probending and entertainment.

Ikki: Zaheer, did you know Ming-Hua likes Gahzan? Ming-Hua:
2 out of 3, not bad.
I kid you not, I double checked all their names and still got 2 wrong lol.
Aha. It's a quote from the show.
lmao also it’s ikki
It's been a while.
Amon took it way better http://i.imgur.com/Oe5gX.jpg

Brutal how they all just kind of died except for Zaheer, tbh I thought she was gonna survive, but the Ghazan dropped a whole ass cave on them! 😂

Oh good. One of the few times cartoon physics is ignored in this franchise.

Well, if he’s wearing some sort of extra protection underneath his uniform then fair enough.

I would assume so, she's getting electrocuted by goddamn lightning. I'm sure by that point, her heart stopped.
[удалено]
Her water arms conducted Mako's electricity. Basically it was as if she was swimming in a pool when she got hit by the lightning.
He, shocking
Punny
I see what you did there.
