37 Legend of Korra Quotes from the Avatar Spin-Off Series

While the hit animated series "Avatar: The Last Airbender" set high standards for its follow-up show, "Avatar: The Legend of Korra" did not disappoint. The series revolves around Korra's different adventures with her family and friends while embracing the spiritual aspect of becoming the Avatar.

Much like her predecessor, Avatar Aang, Korra is fierce and powerful but also has a soft side. Undoubtedly, she is not perfect. She can be arrogant and stubborn, which makes her more realistic and relatable.

As Korra takes on the role of Avatar, she experiences internal conflicts as the burden of always saving the world plagues her thoughts. However, with the guidance of those around her, Korra's character develops throughout each season.

The animated series tackles socio-political issues, relationships, and conflict resolution. Although some themes and elements resemble that of the first "Avatar," the two cannot be compared.

"Avatar: The Legend of Korra" is still set in the same universe, but having everything evolved, much has changed, including technology and the government. Interestingly, some of Avatar Aang's grown-up family appear in the series.

Several other animated shows have notable quotes, including "Avatar: The Last Airbender." Interestingly, the animated series has nothing to do with the box office films "Avatar" and it's sequel "Avatar: The Way of Water," which premiered a decade apart.
