I don’t think there’s an easy way to compare the two. We see Aang’s journey for almost a year when he was 12, and we see Korra’s journey from 17 to 21. We know some of the things Aang accomplished in his lifetime, but yeah it’s hard to really compare. Also, they are the same person.

Aang didn’t cause the war, it was Roku’s fault. Aang was 12 and even if he had stayed, he couldn’t have stopped an entire army of amped firebenders when he only could bend 1 element. He would’ve been killed in the AS and the cycle would have ended, so in a way, running away was the best option he had, thanks to the shitty decisions that Roku took causing the war. And about the Lion Turtle, yeah it’s a Deus Ex Machina, but Korra has like four crucial moments that are a Deus Ex Machina in her series…

Just to add context on why she trusted unalaq he was the only one that was seemly honest with her before that tenzin and her father was lying to her and she found out about her father's past while unalaq was only helping korra at the time(not his true intentions but it was how it looked to korra) she had every reason to trust him in her mind

You make a very good point

I love both Avatars Aang and Korra for who they are, flaws and all. They're both on the same team anyway 🤷🏿 Subscribed btw. You have an awesome channel. 👍

You called out the Lion Turtle Deus ex machina but didn't call out any of the Deus ex machinas from LoK. She can bend air after her bending is taken away, she can bend air just at the right moment even though that moment has nothing to do with Airbender philosophy or why she couldn't airbend. She activates her "inner spirit" or whatever it was in Season 2, even though she technically wasn't the Avatar anymore and was one of the most spiritually lacking people among the leads. She found Rava minutes after she was destroyed even though it was supposed to take 10000 years for her to reappear. Her leaving the spirit portals open is somehow beneficial or only somewhat annoying to the world even though in Wan's time the spirits forced making onto the Lion Turtles. The quality of Korra's "change" is a different can of worms. But I bring up one thing: She barely has to admit her consequences. The closest is in book 3 when she doubted she did good with the spirit portals, and then Tenzin robbed that moment. (And character torture is not character development) Also other points: Untrained Aang with the Avatar state was pretty weak tbh. About as good as 1-2 bending masters. That wouldn't be enough against an army of supercharged fire benders on a mission to kill an entire nation in one day. So even if it seems wrong, Aang leaving and getting frozen was better than him dying there and potentially ending the Avatar cycle. He escaping with Gyatso might have been better, but that could have made the hunt for the Avatar by the Fire Nation worse. The best Avatar is supposedly the one who fulfils their duties the best. Keeping the balance or bringing one. Aang letting the 100-year war happen is pretty bad, but as I said, he really didn't have many chances there. But he did bring peace after all. Korra however intentionally brought chaos into the world with season 2, and only fixed the political things. Be the bridge between the spirit and the physical world: Aang did that, there wasn't really any big riff between humans and spirits, except for the North Pole incident. Korra just removed the need for that. She also kind of failed with the wines in Republic City, which was later solved offscreen. I can't agree with your conclusion.

Hey monk, I wanna mention it's hilarious how much the lion turtle thing annoys you xD I completely understand and it's very called for but it's still funny, I wanna say while I disagree the fact that korra is the best avatar, it's not because I think aang is better than her. I quite honestly don't think there is a best avatar, because all avatar tend to the repeat the same progression of growth that the first avatar did and you can kinda notice it the closer you look at each avatars story. It hits me as a sad realization that the avatar will keep reincarnating and having the same progression and then repeat it in the next life but with a completely opposing direction and as long the world still needs an avatar then no avatar is the best and I think that's poetic because it doesn't mean all of them are failure because you can never eradicate the evil for the sake of balance and every avatar is unique in the way they choose to perform their duties and responsibilities. That variety in past experiences is what makes every avatar a bit better than the one that came before. Now you can think about how genji is gonna perform his duties after korra due to her being cut off from the other avatar reincarnations. Great video, Much love, Keep going hard monk.

Aang changed the course of a war, but Korra changed the course of time as we know it. Spirits and humans are united, the air nation is flourishing with fresh life. Aang didn't explore the diversity of decisions he could make as an Avatar, even with that flashback in season 1 of Korra it seems he learned about taking people's bending away then went hog-wild using it as a trump card. Which only created more problems (the equalists) I like Aang, but Korra is the better Avatar. She's very Kyoshi-like. Aang is more like Roku, letting things get out of hand by being passive (the 100 years war)

I feel like Korra gets a lot of hate and I don't understand why. great video again btw!

Kyoshi was the best Avatar in battle

Hi this Abhishek son I love your videos and I think angg is better also I subscribed

Korra gonna be a great past life for whoever gonna follow after her

Korranis a great series to

I never watched avatar but nice video BTW I'm here for naruto I'm a new subscriber are you not gonna welcome me to the family 💞💓💖

All the people who shit on Korra always neglect to mention all her character development, as in she has significantly more development than Aang did

Bro I can't lie u are died wrong I watch Korra before aang but Korra just sucks in my opinion

Ang is the best, he gave his life and fate forcefully took his people, he became what he wanted to be not a killer tho if it's a fighter or killer you wanted in atla zuko and every FN or earth kingdom watertribe adversary would have all been dead, by someone who has nothing to loose, Anyway ANG DESERVES VENGEANCE

Yeah nah Aang is the best
