There's a lot I could say about the series and the finale because I have a lot of emotions about it. I'll try to not make the comment absurdly long. The finale for The Last Airbender series gets me teary-eyed, but with The Legend of Korra I'm crying through much of the last episode. When asked which series I prefer, I usually say I love them both equally but for different reasons. Emotionally however, it feels as though Korra hits me more deeply more often, and that's true in the finale as well. A lot of it comes from things like the gorgeous music, but also just the content itself. While getting a Kuvira backstory episode would have been great, I think the writers did as well as they could with what they were able to do, and it's hard for me to hold it against them. Rewatches help, honestly! There's a lot of setup put into showing how similar Korra and Kuvira are. There's also a lot of setup put into another relationship that Korra has, but I'll get to that later. I mentioned before why I prefer Korra to Aang, and you put it very well. She's so very different from the person she was at the start. And honestly if you were to compare her to anyone in the original gang it shouldn't really be Aang, but Zuko. Both started as very angry and selfish, prone to lashing out, but also with a clear desire to do what they thought was right. Both formed their identities around their titles (the idea of being 'Prince' Zuko and 'Avatar' Korra ). Both had to come to understand the suffering of others, and had been a bit sheltered for most of their lives. Of course there are more obvious parallels, such as Korra cutting her hair, but thematically they're very similar in a lot of interesting ways. So yeah, I love Korra as a character a lot, and I think her development is masterfully done. The last point I'll make is that you were not, in fact, reading into things. Korra and Asami are a couple, and them stepping together into the spirit world leads into essentially their first date (and the comics show it in more detail). Basically, the writers had started to have the idea around season two, and began the building blocks for it even though they thought they couldn't get away with it. Eventually it turned out Nickelodeon *would* let them do it...but only in a very implied way. I mean, this is the same show that has had quite a lot of kisses between male and female characters, but they were not allowed to have Korra and Asami do the same. This is also a series where we can have the villains commit murder-suicide or get their heads blown up, but being upfront about two women falling in love? That's a bridge too far, or at least it was at the time. Korra and Asami were very much like the first leg of a relay, and their relationship has very much given way to a passing of the baton as far as depicting non-straight characters in children's programming. So it was actually pretty big, and if you watch with that mind there's quite a few clues. When Asami compliments Korra's hair this season, Korra visibly blushes and looks very bashful. There's the fact that Mako of all people looks between Korra and Asami and literally asks "What is going on with you two?" Things like that. So the writers implied it as much as they were able, and it paved the way for other kids shows to be clearer about it. And the comics are very clear about it: the first few issues are just about the start of Korra and Asami's relationship, and then there's a much bigger plot-related story afterward that involves the fallout from Kuvira, but also still shows Korra and Asami clearly and casually being a couple. I already related to Korra in a lot of ways, but when the finale first aired I had quite literally just come out as bi to my family, so it made those last few seconds extra emotional. Anyway, I really love this show and these characters, and thoroughly enjoyed your reactions to it!

No, you were right, Asami and Korra are together in the end, there's some hints and flirting along the way. For me this finale means so much, not just for the big step in lgbt representation, but for me personally. I was at the lowest point of my entire life, I had lost nearly everything, and this final episode, as well as the season of dealing with depression, really helped me through rock bottom and the eventual climb back up

Asami and Korra are 100% a couple at the end. Their relationship is explored more in the sequel comics, which are canon. The writers wanted to be more explicit about it in the show, but they worried that if Nickelodeon caught wind of what they were planning, they would be outright forbidden from continuing. So, they decided to slip it under the radar and then confirm it afterwards.
