While other benders are only open of harness one component , the Avatar is unparalleled and able-bodied to connect to all four due to entree to the Avatar State .
BothAvatar : The Last AirbenderandThe Legend Of Korraare useable to watch on Netflix .
There have been few item regarding what is to come of the franchise and its next chronological installment . Information on the Avatar after Korra continues to be scarce . However , depend to retiring Avatars , the creators of the property have leave behind a smattering of helpful confidential information . look at what is known of the fewnamed Avatars- of which there are over six hundred - certain patterns begin to emerge , allowing fans to suppose about who Korra ’s replacement as Avatar could be , and what they might be like .
Avatar : The Last Airbender was the start of a new universe . Here ’s a complete timeline of what happened before Avatar and through Legend of Korra .
Earthbender Avatar
In the world of Avatar , there are four bending manner , each harnessing the power of one of the four chemical element . While embodiment are all capable of master all four deflect artistry with acute training , they are always link with one elementary element . Looking back to the last four Avatars before Korra , one might see that all four of the elemental deflection styles are typify : Avatar Kuruk ( 345 - 312 Before Genocide or " BG " ) was primarily a waterbender ; Avatar Kyoshi ( 312 BG-82 BG ) was an earthbender ; Avatar Roku was a firebender ; and Avatar Aang , an airbender .
Of naturally , when consider that the most late Avatar , Korra , is another waterbender , the radiation diagram - referred to as the " Avatar Cycle " - begins to emerge . Each newfangled Avatar ’s main deflexion style run in the guild fire - aura - water - earth before beginning afresh . This means the next Avatar will be an earthbender .
The understanding for this ostensibly random ordering can be retrace back to thevery first Avatar , Wan . In ancient days preceding the Age of Avatar , the elementals ' abilities were granted to human beings through the spiritual lionturtles , four of which carry entire cities on the back of their shells . While still a young man , Wan ( an habitant of the fire lionturtle ’s urban center ) was granted the ability of firebending .
sentence to proscription by his people , Wan was capable to keep his first bending power , but after he accidentally set loose the malevolent liveliness Vaatu , he began visiting the other lionturtles , acquiring new abilities necessary for defeating him once and for all . And the Holy Order in which he develop these elemental powers ? fervency , air , body of water , and ground .
The Legend Of Korra had big shoes to fill after Avatar . As these ten episodes prove , it more than hold its own and bring forth some fantabulous episode .
Lost Past Lives
In one of the integral serial ' most shocking and unsettling twists , near the end ofThe Legend of Korra ’s second season , a resuscitated Vaatu takes on Korra and Raava , a benevolent spirit merged with the Avatar horde . After a series of brute approach , the dark spirit forcibly removes Raava from her Avatar server soundbox and , as Vaatu ’s assault continues , Korra is break up from her past life . shock by the loss of her connector to previousAvatars , like Aang , Korra marks the first in a long line of Avatars altogether on her own .
So , debar any development that may have occurred in the intervening years between the last ofThe Legend of Korraand the reincarnation of a Modern Avatar , all future Avatars will not be capable to connect to lives prior to Korra , perhaps making her the Wan of a new rhythm . However , there is also grounds to paint a picture that the newfangled Avatar may not even be able to connect to his or her predecessor . In a book released by Nickelodeon titledAn Avatar ’s Chronicles , Korra and her Friend give write advice to the young Avatar after her .
I am sorry that you wo n’t have the link with me …
In one such letter , Korra writes , " While I bed we ca n’t let our failure define us , I am deplorable that you wo n’t have the connection with me , with Aang , and with all the lives you ’ve lived before , " on the face of it indicating that she too will not be capable to exist on through the next Avatar . But with many of the rule within the Avatar mythology still a little up in the atmosphere , it is possible that the raw Avatar will attempt to reintegrate all of the Avatar ’s past lives .
Physical Appearance
A pervasive theory exists pertain to the next Avatar ’s physical appearance . fan of bothAvatar : The Last Airbenderand its sequel serial may notice that Korra shares similar physical feature with Aang ’s friend and eventual love interest , Katara . Interestingly , when looking back to the previous Avatar , Roku , one may find that his married woman Ta Min also await intimate - her round face and softer feature film are resonant of Aang . While evidence is limited , it has been theorized that the next Avatar shares physical features with the antecede Avatar ’s smashing love .
Avatar : The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra have terminal scene that sparked hypothesis about the character ' love interests and renascence .
This theory is bolster up by both series ' ending , which feature final shots of that serial ' Avatar , having saved the globe , finally taking a bluff Modern stair with the person they hump : Aang with Katara andKorra with Asami . So , considering this theory , the next Avatar ( disregarding of gender identity ) should share some features with Asami , be it her dark hair , gullible eyes , hide tone of voice , etc . With the emphasis the serial publication places on love and the importance of Light Within when confronting the great power of darkness , the idea of all Avatars being the amalgamation of their past self and their soulmate is for certain a resonant and poetically satisfying mind .
Despite the dubiety fence in the future of the beloved serial , there is canonical evidence about the identity of the next Avatar . If uniform with what is known from the cosmos ’s history and mythology , it is potential that the next Avatar will come in from earthbending origins , have limited or no approach to premature spirit , and will hold some strong-arm resemblance to Asami , Korra ’s partner .
Avatarfans may have a while to wait before this is all corroborate , of course , but with the quicken fervor that come with bothThe Last AirbenderandThe Legend of Korra ’s addition to the Netflix catalogue alongside the live - action adaption ofThe Last Airbenderseries , an answer is for certain on the way .
