Nah they weren't nearly as bad as their father I wouldn't even say he was a "villain" exactly. Especially since both of them thought they were doing the right thing

Pxer Amon never killed lieutenant, he just blood bender him and tossed him aside saying you’ve served me well lieutenant

Pxer where did the creators say that?.....can you post the link to what you’re speaking of, because I just rewatched the episode and I also read on avatar wikia it says “Amon thanked him for his service, before tossing the Lieutenant into a pile of wooden planks, knocking him unconscious”.

XxPH03N1xX Edwards yo thanks so much :)

thought so too

Thought this too.

I bet my brother a dollar that this is what Amon felt

One of the lessons regarding Amon is: Battle not with monsters lest you become a monster

Umm no, his tears were of reuniting with his brother. Being a blood bender doesn’t mean you can sense movements, it means you can manipulate a person’s blood.

Energy bending

@@coolperson9482 wish that story he told was the real one,I still have mixed feels about the reveal of him being a bender,still a great Villain.

Wyndell Lee isn’t that blood bending?

That's the beauty of it they never said that he was a bender out loud, it's not hard to look for something especially when you don't know anything about it .

@@jendersonmohammed443 It was Blood bending blocking the Chi path not energy bending as far as i know

Amon is azula if she cared for zuko

​@@ruparavi6409And if at the start she wanted everyone to be treated fairly and equally

Yep

If you want something you should be willing to do anything for it, nothing would change if he didn’t take the city by force.

@@shrekisthebestfranchiseand5032 I guess maybe that sometimes is either what creates a villain maybe an Antagonist or it gives you enemies

Pxer How else can he remove bending from the world?

@@shrekisthebestfranchiseand5032 why would he remove bending from the world? That's not his right. Bending is something given to people by nature. He wanted everyone to be equal,but equality isn't always a good thing. If 75% of the world was blind, would it then be okay to make the other 25% blind so they could all be "equal"? No. Benders had superior skills given to them by nature, and that was okay. Complete equality to the point of taking away other people's special abilities is not equality. It's oppressive and bland.

How was he tyrannical, he never killed or impeded freedom

The weird thing about the show that there is brutal deathes (like noatak, tarlock, minghua, ghazan, p'li) but not a korrasami kiss

*death

I respect your opinion but Korra is a mary sue. And the villains were wasted on her. Look up the Legend of Whorra to see why I think this way

Gay Wolf Season 1 isn’t the best I’ll admit, and she is Mary Sue by that point. But the writers fix that problem in the season right after it and that flaw of the show was mostly because the creators were unaware of wether they would be receiving more seasons. So I partly agree but that’s an issue addressed and resolved right after the fact. Ex:She released spirits into the world and air-bending returned, however Zaheer got air-bending powers which allowed him to break out of prison and reform his group. So she most certainly faces consequences for her actions.

@@arthuredington6171 you sound stupid, mary sues dont get their ass handed to them many times or get the avator cycle messed up

All the villains are really shallow representations of various ideologies, with the exception of Kuvira who’s just Ozai but as a metal bender. Zaheer is an anarchist and anyone who isn’t a 14 year old or just a complete moron understands why anarchism is never viable or conducive for a functional society. Amon is a vaguely communist revolutionary who just touts crap about equality without a clear goal.

@@BBRRTT98 And Tarluk could have been great but they made him a generic evil brother

Yeah but later in the season they fucked his characterization up. Making him a bender didn't add anything, it actually took away the most interesting thing about him, Korra was a good bender but not very spiritual , meanwhile Amon at the beginning wasn't a bender but he was very spiritual, so much so he could take away one's bender. See total opposites. Then they make him a bender and they're not opposites anymore. It's very disappointing

Gay Wolf dude amons story was all very obviously bs “firebenders gave me a scar and took my family oh also spirits gave me cool powers”

@@arthuredington6171 if he wasn't a bender he couldn't take away the bendings jeez so many dumb people

The producers screwed up a great show. ATLA was beautiful LOK is a good show it just has too many holes because too many people wanted their own way

@@arthuredington6171 no his storyline was sad they didn't mess it up at all it made perfect sense

My favourite villain is Unalaq then Amon.

I agree, i like Amon.

My favourite is Zaheer

Carlo Terzian honestly they wasted such a good complex villain

I prefer Zaheer honestly

Maybe he would of intended to create a secret society of blood bending equalists that woul carry on his technique later they would have kids and then make their own philosophy called the blood lotus.

@@chameleon3465 good name

in the show he planned to breed out bending from humans by making it illegal, so even if the next generation were benders they wouldn't know because nobody could teach them, and they wouldnt use it cause bending teachings would be wiped from history they would not have any way to know how to bend and even if they somehow found out like a group of people Amon would just take their bending

Kfc Donalds actually no, bending teachings wouldn’t have to be wiped out from history. Just because someone lost their bending doesn’t mean they can’t teach it to the younger generation. Look at how amon learnt his bending. He learnt from his father yakone whom aang took his bending away. Yakone lost his bending but was still able to teach it to his kids. Furthermore remember the original benders were still in existence, badgermoles, flying bisons etc. they were the original benders and humans originally learnt bending from those animals

Kfc Donalds and also you’re saying even if the younger generation found out how to bend, amon would just take their bending away. Not necessarily, because what if a bender grew to become powerful enough to take out amon and stop his regime. Especially if a water bender is born and learns to bloodbend better than amon

It’s Zuko but your right he does sound like them

Very true....

Yeah kinda

Very true

I mean that Ozai praised Azula for being a prodigy and belittled Zuko for not being a prodigy like his younger sister.

Except Azula didn't do it for Zuko

@@alpha5664 Yeah but their father still showed favoritism.

@@alpha5664 didn't do what?

So much more developed unlike Ozai who is evil just to be evil

@@edra3118 you weren't suppose to now much about him in a direct way. The whole last Airbender series which I in my opinion think is superior to tlok, had you not even see ozai till the last season. They had indirect ways of showing him as evil. Like for example azula. Its made obvious she wants to please her father showing she is almost just like him. Even roku, talking about him and his friendship with sozin and sozin's goals. Put the idea they are now Ozai's goal. Finally when you see him its not as epic. You had inderect ways of knowing he was evil. Which was the intention. The story was the heros preparing for a fight vs someone they and we know little about, instead of a villain being fleshed out in the regular way. He is fleshed out, with character development. Especially in stories told from characters. Example being zuko's scar. This gives you a good idea early on what his father is like. You knew everything about him before you knew it.

@@edra3118Unalaq was probably more shallow then Ozai. He claims to be spiritual, but other then bragging how better spirits are to humans we hardly see him act spiritual at all. His ambition seems to be for selfish reasons and we never find out why he is this way. Why is he more spiritual then his brother? Why is view on the spirits so personal? Why did he see to himself to ally with basically the avatar equivalent of the devil? None are actually explained. It comes off as telling but not showing anything. At least with Ozai we can see how fire nation culture had shaped him into the monster he became, we literally get nothing out of Unalaq or how different the north pole was under his rule. Unalaq is honestly worst then Ozai in my opinion.

Ed Ra true Ozai character was classic villain that we know. He wants power and respect. Something that almost villain from others show or movie we know. But for korra seasons each villain have good reasons but they take that as different path. Something that I like so much from TLOK. We learn that everyone have bad and good side it’s just how we choose it

Rodger W. do you know what communism is? because amon is not a communist.

It would be better if the equalists didnt dissapear but they wouldv still exist in other seasons of the show.

No, I think Amon at some point lost himself in the process and his original cause of "equality" because he used his bending to take people's bending away. That's a difficult thing to do, to believe bending is evil and use it throughout the years to take others' bending away, that ought to make Amon see himself as more powerful in the process. But even though Amon is my favourite, I think that Zaheer was the one who didn't want power because he was an anarchist. I believe Zaheer was misunderstood and that he didn't belong in this world and therefore he is seen as a villain (even though he later started becoming a villain, he eventually got humbled as well and continued his journey to absolute spirituality and freedom in his prison cell, which was a gain for him). Amon, or maybe Noatak, got humbled too. At the start he was battling with nature itself because people are born with bending so by taking it away and considering it evil, he had simply deluded himself and deceived non-benders. He sought anger and wrath in them and began stealing criminals' bending away to publically justify his theft. Deception and sowing anger were Amon's main tools for his revolution as he also used them for his made up story about the firebender killing his family. But later in the end, as Uncle Iroh had once said "True humility is the only antidote to shame", Noatak humbled himself after realising his entire work was lost, and he reunited with his original character traits and desires, which was to leave with his younger brother who he loved most and begin a new life. He got redeemed.

Highly doubtful. He hated his father but I doubt he hated his bending. More likely he took over Republic city to prove to his father he was better than him

@@arthuredington6171 I see. But like the act of bloodbending is so evil, that's why he probably wanted it gone

@@piedathemokona he wouldn't use it if he wanted it gone

Gay Wolf There’s a scene clarifying that Amon isn’t doing it just for power. “I think Amon truly believes bending is the root of all evil.”-Tarrlok.

@@arthuredington6171 Tarrlock literally said that he believed his brother genuinely thought bending was bad for the world. This probably stems from his experience with his father as a kid

​@@xenon9717 "That's rough buddy

I think the reason they said in the original that Aang would’ve killed Ozai had he decided to redirect his lightning towards him was Sozin’s Comet amplified Ozai’s firebending including his lightning, so a comet powered lightning bolt would’ve definitely killed Ozai. Mako shot Amon with regular lightning, which Amon can survive.

@@shrekisthebestfranchiseand5032 I am not said that what Amon is wrong, but I believe that you do not need to take people bender to create equality

Actually the great thing about LOK is that all the villains in theory have valid points and ideals. They were all just done to the extreme and executed destructively. Amon wanted equality among benders and non-benders. Unalaq wanted to bring back the spirits into the world once again. Zaheer wanted freedom from oppressive governments and horrible world leaders. Kuvira wanted to unite the Earth Kingdom.

@@quizzlybear Honestly all the villains in LoK are very well written

Not really there was just wayy to much inequality in there world.

Great idea! I really love Percy Jackson 💙

@@MovieFlame yes yes yes ❤😍

Yeah!!! Percy Jackson!!!!

The evil began when he started considering bending as evil. But benders have bending when they're born so nature has managed to find balance through benders co existing with non-benders so that means everyone is already equal. Amon used theft, deception and sowing wrath and anger in non-benders. But eventually in the end he got redeemed.

i know you never said this but just to let you know avatar ISNT AN ANIME

@@paleostories_7839 In a way it kinda is a little bit

true💪🔥

@@fuzzulica2932 It is in no way an anime. The Japanese had no part in it's creation.

@@paleostories_7839 It's an anime inspired cartoon. If you look at it that way, then no, Avatar isn't an anime. But for japanese the word "anime" refers to just any form of animation. So almost everyone from Japan would label Avatar an anime. But I really doubt they even heard of its existence.

I feel if korra did not get her bending back in the end Amons actions would have actually made things worst causing more of a divide between benders and non benders in the end an probably making a good chunk of benders in republic city to hate non benders to the point they call them traitors to not only republic city but to the avatar saying they choose Amon over The avatar

Amon also means the demon of wrath in some other language (demons are deceivers), which explains his major tools to maintain or start his revolution which were theft (stealing people's natural bending away), deception (deceive benders into thinking bending is evil when in fact it's not, because nature has managed to find balance with non-benders coexisting with benders which means everyone is already equal, and to deceive them about his actual identity) and sowing anger and wrath (make non-benders slowly believe that bending is evil by stating historical events of wars beginning with bending, publically justifying his theft by starting with taking the bending of criminal benders and slowly advancing to normal benders through sowing anger). This nickname, Amon, perfectly fits Noatak and no wonder why he had picked it as an alias.

YESSSSSSS I want Aang a story!

Brandon Seepersaud The whole entire ALTA and a quarter of LOK was about aang so we don’t need one same with korra

Also he should do a life of sokka

the twist was clearly intended even i when i was very young knew this dude didnt get no spirit powers..

@@shrekisthebestfranchiseand5032 it's still stupid,all the potential amon could've been given,the writers wasted it

I prefer kuvira

Kcuf Jake Paul eh she’s ok. An impressive bender with a lot of charisma and strategic know how but she could use more compelling origins, and I REALLY don’t like the mechs the earth empire use. She just sort of a feels like a really odd final boss after the other three major antagonists have been dealt with.

Amon also means the demon of wrath in some other language (demons are deceivers), which explains his major tools to maintain or start his revolution which were theft (stealing people's natural bending away), deception (deceive benders into thinking bending is evil when in fact it's not, because nature has managed to find balance with non-benders coexisting with benders which means everyone is already equal, and to deceive them about his actual identity) and sowing anger and wrath (make non-benders slowly believe that bending is evil by stating historical events of wars beginning with bending, publically justifying his theft by starting with taking the bending of criminal benders and slowly advancing to normal benders through sowing anger). This nickname, Amon, perfectly fits Noatak and no wonder why he had picked it as an alias.

i think lieutenant’s death scene is darker its shown and hes killed with bloodbending

Kuvira is pretty good and there is a comic about her that takes place after the end of the show.

I wouldn’t really look at it as equality, because he was a bender himself and wanted to take everyone else’s bending, that’s being a hypocrite. In my opinion, zaheer was the one who I never really saw as a villain, he wanted freedom from the tyrannical rule of leaders

I think Amon was the only realistic to achieve equality for non-benders. If he couldn't take away people's bending, his only other option would be to kill all benders, and their children. If Amon really was a non-bender, he would become a genocidal maniac like the Nazis. Amon is the lesser evil, he's the only way to get equality without murdering every bender in the world. I think he was right, but with him gone, there may never be true equality for non-benders without mass murder. I don't know about you, but Amon and Equalism might get me to write some fan fiction, because of how right he is.

He would be a hypocrite if he didn't surrender his own bending once he sealed everyone else's. He is a fraud, though, because he claimed to not be a bender.

I think Amon was deluded and a deceiver. People are born with bending so by stealing it, Amon is battling with nature itself, and that pretty much makes him evil. At the beginning, when he was 14. I believe he truly wanted equality back then but now he's just using equality as an excuse. However, in the end he got humbled when Korra destroyed his revolution. Amon had dug a pit into his own downfall and when the truth was revealed, everything he had worked on fell because of himself. That also means he humbled himself and he reunited with lost character traits but that's just my own assumption. He saw himself for who he truly is, someone who's capable of losing (before it was revealed that he saw himself as someone more powerful when he said to Mako "Impressive. No one has gotten the better of me like that.") and that made his original self show when he wanted him and his brother to live a new life once again. He was redeemed in the end. Amon also means the demon of wrath in some language (demons are deceivers), which explains his major tools to maintain or start his revolution which were theft (stealing people's natural bending away), deception (deceive benders into thinking bending is evil when in fact it's not, because nature has managed to find balance with non-benders coexisting with benders which means everyone is already equal, and to deceive them about his actual identity) and sowing anger and wrath (make non-benders slowly believe that bending is evil by stating historical events of wars beginning with bending, publically justifying his theft by starting with taking the bending of criminal benders and slowly advancing to normal benders through sowing anger). This nickname, Amon, perfectly fits Noatak and no wonder why he had picked it as an alias. In my opinion, Zaheer was someone who was truly misunderstood, and he simply didn't fit in this world therefore he was seen as a villain (even though he started becoming a villain at some point, eventually when he was jailed he had the opportunity to continue his quest for true freedom and spirituality and that's a gain for him.) Amon is my favorite. He truly had a good start, and the core character traits that he has are fairness and humility which are what actually shaped him. He used to be humble and grounded when he was young, that's why he didn't let his father's compliments get to him, which is also what made him succeed in many areas. Personally, I don't believe his father shaped him because when he lost all his prideful work, he got humbled and reunited with his brother and his core character traits. However, Yakone had still shame in him, because only through shame somebody changes his whole identity even as to make plastic surgery. Which is also why Yakone's emotions of revenge resurfaced once again. When he started a family, they already existed but were simply buried. Noatak, however, only wanted to escape with his brother in the end, he had already won over the shame through humility. (Just like Uncle Iroh had once said "True humility is the only antidote to shame".) So Noatak got redeemed.

Wyndell Lee that much is true

Just as bad if not worse

Only if he had an Uncle Iroh, he would turn out differently for good

Not really Yakone was a criminal murderer who only strived for power and oppression Noatak is a revalutionary and fought for the helpless. He never killed anyone and had a warm,empathic personality. One bloodbends for himself and the other to make the world equal.

@@timonfischer9679 I agree! At least, if you look back to his end, you can see that he repented to the point he even allowed his and Tarrlok's suicide. He was just a good-natured, sympathetic man that wanted equality for everyone. Bending doesn't honestly mean a thing - the entire bending art is fictional but now here we are, surviving without bending. So I'd say he was sympathetic towards non benders but went a little too far.

Yeah, he's a bit of a combo of Zuko and Azula.

@@bessieburnet9816 He wasn't granted a redemption arc, sadly.

Wish Amon got some wisdom from Zuko lol

But more powerful than season 1 Zuko

Unfortunately, he didn't have an uncle Iroh to help reel him in.

Agreed

Gay Wolf the greatest villain of avatar. I still think he is.

Gay Wolf maybe the greatest villain of kora’s life but the fire lord was the greatest villain in the avatar genre by far in my opinion

100% agree. It would have been good if Vaatu actually taught him the chi blocking technique. It would connect to the bigger Avatar lore. His fake back story with him burning his skin seemed so over the top.

@@JP-dj3ty Ozai was a means to an end. He had no real personality other than him being an overpowered weakling, who thought his power made him strong. His only goal was increasing his power. The kind of villains they tried to make in the legend of Korra was kind that would be heroes, had they not been so horrible in their methods. Bit of a shame they didn't make any solid redemption arcs Zuko's, other than Kuvira's strange 180 turn in the comics, and maybe Zaheer becoming disinterested in his goals after seeing the effects of his anarchy in season 4 and doing one good deed. Ngl tho, Mark Hamill did a stellar performance of voicing Ozai.

I ve been saying that for years, had he not done that the republic city would never have a non bender president, even the non benders being the majority of people

@@piyushnagawat24 I think that is one of the reasons why I hated the first season. Sure there was a lot of damage but it wasnt Kuvira level of bad. And everyone got their bending back. And somehow Kuvira survives and the two men died.

I feel like they died all for a cheap edgy shock factor.

@@crewmatewillthrowthesehand7600 Korra was only supposed to be one season, so they had to wrap everything up and create a happy ending. But yeah it would of been cool to see Amon and Tarlok show up again in the series.

@@piyushnagawat24 No he wasn't. If you look at the scene again, he saw the contents of the boat. He knew that there was only more pain and suffering in the future.

I felt the same with Kuvira. It would’ve been cool if we could see more of her backstory in Zaofu

Both were still EXTREMELY selfish

There was actually a slightly morbid joke that the creators of LOK told each other that Amon had survived the explosion and now had to bend water in place of his missing arms. That was where they got the idea for Ming-Hua from.

Well kind of bit not exactly. Bloodbenders can technically block the chi. So take Ty lees chi blocking and combine it with bloodbening. It is not know how long it lasts but it does block the Bending.

I was wondering the same

I was about to comment that. I was confused when he said that

Steven Pillco I don’t believe Yakone was actually trying to, he was just very hostile towards tarlok.

He wasnt going too, he knew tarlok wasn’t gonna blood bend his own father because he’s weak inside he even said it himself saying it felt awful. So if anything tarlok was gonna let yakone beat the living crap out of him.
