The best thing that could be said about "The Legend of Korra" is that it shares all the virtues from the previous series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, being a high-quality production which is also incredibly enjoyable to watch.

I really liked this series from its very beginning. Even if the first episodes feel somewhat "slow", it never fails to entertain. As the story advances, the rhythm of the series reaches a higher level of complexity, with many unpredictable plot twists.

In this series, a new cast of very characters is introduced, having each one of them many virtues and flaws that gave them a complete feeling.

The protagonist is particularly interesting, being someone who is psychically powerful, but very vulnerable and flawed in other aspects, having a great development of her personality through the 12 episodes of the first season.

There is a good interaction between all the characters (Both the new and those from the previous series) resulting in an almost flawless combination of adventure, comedy, action, romance and drama, always with a highly satisfying result.

Also, while "The Legend of Korra" keeps the essence of the classic conflict of "good against evil", it also maintains certain level of ambiguity which is more than enough to make this series something more complex and surprising that someone could think at first sight. The animation is excellent, having a nice character design, beautiful sceneries and an incredible level of detail in each scene, with fluid movements and a great use of colors and tones.

The balance between the seriousness of the plot with the comedy and romantic elements is perfect, resulting in a complete series, which has a mature and well done story-line, but which it is at the same time incredibly funny and very easy to follow.

My impression of the first season of "The Legend of Korra" is very positive. This series filled all my expectations about it (And in some aspects, it was even better than I thought that it will be) Watching this series was a very rewarding experience for me.

"The Legend of Korra" is a worthy successor of "Avatar: The Last Airbender" being one of the best animations that I have seen in my whole life.
