So how about a topic to start off?
If the creators of ATLA and LOK wanted to make a third companion to ATLA and LOK would you rather have it showcase; a new earthbending avatar, a continuation of legend of korra or a continuation of avatar the last airbender?

Also, just curious here, has anyone read any of the books from the series? :3

no.

1. I would want a couple of different shows: one that takes place between ATLA and LoK and one that has a season focus on each past avatar we've gotten to know. So Book 1: Wan, Book 2: Kyoshi, Book 3: Roku.

For the first one, I wouldn't want it to be a direct sequel to ATLA, I'd want to it take place closer to LoK - around time of the creation of Republic City while the group are still adults and not quite as old as they are in LoK. While Korra was great, I wouldn't want to adjust to a whole new avatar - especially when they have so many great ones they can build stories around. I would LOVE to see the life of Kyoshi.

2. I have read most of the comics, but I haven't gotten to The Rift just yet.

Favorite Character: Korra, Amon, Hiroshi Sato, Sokka, Iroh, Tenzin, Zaheer, Kuvira
Favorite Episodes: I can't choose one, so here are my highlights. I've bolded ones I especially love.
ATLA: The Blue Spirit, All of Book 2 from Zuko Alone onwards, The Beach, Nightmares and Daydreams, The Western Air Temple, The Boiling Rock, Sozin's Comet Parts 1 - 3 (4 was sort of disappointing)
Korra: Welcome to Republic City, And The Winner Is..., Beginnings, all of Book 3, Korra Alone, The Calling, Beyond the Wilds, Day of the Colossus, The Last Stand

If the creators of ATLA and LOK wanted to make a third companion to ATLA and LOK would you rather have it showcase; a new earthbending avatar, a continuation of legend of korra or a continuation of avatar the last airbender? I'd definitely like to see what Kyoko described, and agree that it would be better for the series to go backwards in its history instead of forwards at the moment. I'd love seeing a Korra Book 5 though, and I would be up for a ATLA Book 4 too provided it doesn't just retread the contents of the comics.

Speaking of which, I've read the first few comics but have fell behind since. I was so hype when they announced the Korra comics, hopefully we get more than that FCBD one (which was cute but sort of disappointing).

Omg you guys look so awesome! Ive never cosplayed but your pic makes me want to xD Probably as Mako cause idk easy? Or just cool :3

And ya i gotta say i rather have a legend of korra 5th season with asami and korra dating and all since i feel like ATLA season 4 would just reiterate the comics.

I also gotta ask that question.
If you had to pick one as the best which one would it be ATLA or LOK? (also what season of whichever you picked did you enjoy the most)

I'd pick ATLA as the best but I am infinitely biased >.> Korra is really good, maybe when I watch all of it I might change my mind.

Korra Book 3 is better than any one season of ATLA but I think ATLA overall was better. If I had to choose one I'd go with ATLA, and Book 2 is its strongest.

I'm gonna rock you

5-7-5, Sokka. 5-7-5.

Favorite Element: Pretty hard to choose, but for the sake of consistency I'll pick Earthbending. I love the ways that they use it as the series progresses- though traditionally I'd have to say Air, since I think it's a cool element in general and love to see the way it's utilized from here to there. But Toph. And Bolin.

Favorite Character: Oh geez you hate me. Uh...Varrick definitely comes to mind since he was so consistently enjoyable from his first appearance in Korra to the end of the show. I was a big Azula fan when I was younger, she was pretty enjoyable. Same with Toph, who I LOOOOVED back in the day, and Bolin, who only got better as the series went forward.

So...uh...none. Wooh!

Favorite Episode: There are two that stick out to me more than any others- well,3, but they're Tales from Ba Sing Se (for obvious reasons, that episode gets me every time) and The Beginnings, which I think are two of the greatest episodes in Avatar and one of the best self-contained stories I've seen in a show. This was what made season 2 worth it for me since, if you've seen Korra, you know how that season was. It's an absolutely fantastic duology that Avatar fans should watch even if they aren't interested in Korra- or non-Avatar fans should watch if they aren't into Avatar. Especially since it feels pretty Ghibli.

Username: Karous

Favorite Element: I should say Fire, but earth and air are portrayed as the most powerful so idk lol. Maybe the dragon dance style of firebending.

Favorite Character: Zuko, Zuko, Zuko, and more Zuko. From LoK, I love Lin Beifong.

Favorite Episode: Zuko Alone, Day of the Black Sun pt. 2

I like the episodes focusing on Zuko, so yeah. I also like the comics focusing on him where we find out what happened to his mom. I probably would not have gotten into Avatar as much if not for Zuko's story.

From LoK, my favorite episode is the flashback when the Beifong family feud started between Toph, Lin, and Suyin. I forget the name but it was in book 3.

If the creators of ATLA and LOK wanted to make a third companion to ATLA and LOK would you rather have it showcase; a new earthbending avatar, a continuation of legend of korra or a continuation of avatar the last airbender?

Honestly, I'd like a series that didn't feature the Avatar as a main character and just had some randoms explore the rich worldbuilding that Bryke has created. Have the Avatar be all wise and make cameos, but I want a series based on the world of Avatar that wasn't principally about the Avatar but the world they are in.

If you had to pick one as the best which one would it be ATLA or LOK? (also what season of whichever you picked did you enjoy the most)

Neither show is objectively better than the other, they both have their strengths and weaknesses. For example, while TLA has overall stronger characters compared to the hit and miss of LoK's cast of thousands and lays the groundwork for worldbuilding, I like Korra a LOT more than I like Aang (honestly Aang imho is one of the weakest aspects of TLA, I actually slightly dislike him as a character) and the underlying story and themes of LoK are far more interesting than TLA's "Fire Hitler ruins everything". In my own personal opinion, I would rank the books as follows:

LoK book 3
TLA book 3 (pre-Zuko joining Team Avatar, everything after he joins suffers from poor pacing imho)
LoK book 4
TLA book 2
TLA book 1
TLA book 3 (post-Zuko joining)
LoK book 1
LoK book 2
