A
new age begins after Korra decides to leave the portals to the spirit
world open and mankind should co-exist with the spirit world, but not
everyone is happy with her decision, along with the new spirits, new
airbenders also start appearing. Korra and Tenzin starts rebuilding
the Air Nation. But danger is never far when 4 criminal master
benders escapes from prison and have their own future plans for the
Avatar in Legend
Of Korra: Book Three - Change
(2014) on the latest high grade Blu-ray set from Nickelodeon.
The
Legend of Korra continues to grows as she continues to be the Avatar
to bring balance to the world. While there is tentative peace
between the elemental benders and the non benders, it is still a
completely different story for when it comes to humans and spirits.
And with the appearance of new airbenders the political powers shift
on the already strained relationships between humans and non humans,
but along with the new airbenders, Korra learns not all airbenders
are good, and not all airbenders are welcomed by the rest of the
world. Specially the anarchist Zaheer and his criminal companions
who want to use their powers to destroy all leaders and world
governments.
The
series continues to be a wonderful fantasy show filled with elemental
powers mixed with Asian arts and cultures (granted their Chinese can
use improving). The character Korra is the only person who can
master all 4 elements and seeks to bring balance and peace to the
nations. The series is reflective and symbolically shows people's
prejudice against those who they believe are different or superior.
Great nations can be created by great leaders, but it's leaders and
governments afterwards only care about their own nation's 'greatness'
and needs afterwards, instead of becoming an example to the world
they usually become corrupt and forget the policies that their nation
was founded on. Picture and sound are as solid as the previous sets
reviewed elsewhere on this site, while extras this time include
commentaries and the Spirit of an Episode featurette.
