Wait, her last explosion DID go off? I figured she just stopped and it trapped her from using it. |

Regarding her death, I thought it was actually less meant to trigger an emotional reaction and more a *hint hint nudge nudge* symbolic move about Zaheer's beliefs and flight. The explanation he gave to the other two after they catch up to him, that he was "separate from all earthly/worldly connections" or something like that, and his actual flight, come right after her death. I'm not too informed about Buddhist beliefs, but I think part of being able to progress out of the cycle is to meditate and let go of all connections, so symbolically her death was the severance of his last emotional connection to any material aspect of the world. And if you think about the guru's words that he obsessively recites, perhaps he required her death to be able to fly. Also seconding Crash on the Asami/Korra, this whole season just felt like ship ship ship for them. That last bit about being available to talk "or anything else"? :3 also I just marathoned all of season 3 today and I feel emotionally drained |

I didn't realize that she died, either, until he said something about it. I like Sundancer's theory. |

Yeah, the whole point was that with her death he no longer had anything connecting him to the world, and that's why he recited the words of Lahima immediately after and was able to fly. They definitely chickened out on not having an explosion sound effect though. But even without the sound effect, there was a pillar of smoke coming from where she was when Zaheer looked back. |

I prefer those two together over Makorra all time. Part of the reason why I dislike Book 2 is that Makorra poisoned the entire season with their forced loveydovey drama and whatnot  |

Book 4 is apparently called Balance. And it looks like that metal bending soldier lady they gave some attention to will continue to appear. |

So I heard. So what would have been a better representative? Whatever is the main character's name of TUFF Puppy? |

I don't know that anything else really fits, because as far as I know they haven't forced that show really hard and play it ALL THE TIME like the other three. |

I would if I was on tumblr. I refuse to be on tumblr. All my jerk-faced friends already pushed me into getting face book a few years ago and I've regretted it ever since. |

I plan to get off tumblr for good as soon as the Big Hero 6 Junior novel is out. Too many beloved animated movies have been ruined to me by the idiots on tumblr. I will follow links to a particular tumblr post from a forum though but no more browsing that place for me. Anyway it made its goal in notes. |
