So I may not be 100% up to date with the ‘science lore’ of the Avatar series but I had read how Katara got into bloodbending and Hama and such. It looks like in this universe the knowledge of the human body and their Earth is still a mystery.

Anyways, I ask this:

Is bloodbending more the bending of the water in one’s body rather than blood? (I guess Hama’s and the world’s theory currently is that “blood is made up of water”)

So then could we perhaps assume sometime down the road an Earthbender who can Metalbend will, by chance, figure out that iron is in blood? Maybe in a future series? Or hinted at when a metalbender does some bending “hors de la norme” (out of the ordinary) as would be the phrase in French? Maybe if/when that happens many will associate it as a part of bloodbending until someone does research.

Or maybe it will prompt someone to do research and study the human body and help advance the science a little in the Avatar universe.

The only problem I see is that there could be a Magneto moment like the XMen movies when he pulled out all the iron in that guy’s body? No way is that making it into this series. Or…

(I had seen a element chart too—sound bending as a sub of airbending? It’d be like the Black Canary! Have we seen this yet?)

Sleep? What is this?

forever-alauren:

But yeah. Seriously. They’re similarities are starting to get to me. And they both even lived in the same timeframe.

Huh! I felt something about the Korra series seemed familiar.

It really is similar in approach to Fullmetal Alchemist (I mean, nevermind the alchemy/state-alchemists/non-Alchemists vs bending/benders for the state (ie. the police)/and non-bender parallels. Minus the 2nd classery in the latter series). I mean the whole style of Republic City is kind of like Amestris in a way.

Extra bonus points from me. :D

….Oh now I remembered about Hughes.

Does that mean Korra and co. could befriend someone close to Tarlock (or someone working for the state or council) later, he figures out the whole plot 6 years in advance of the final book’s publication and is killed? Because that could make me cry, a lot.

Wait….Tenzin…?

FFFFF—— (They wouldn’t do that in Avatar would they? I only had S2-3 of Avatar summarized to me by younger cousins at my cousin’s wedding before watching a marathon of the finale on YTV years ago. I know Iroh died?)

Don’t mind me. I’m new.

/Sunday rambling.

Well, well, well…

Tarlock’s new law takes a line from 2 or 3 clauses of the new law that was put in place in Quebec. (Bill 78) 

edit Or rather, it parallels the clauses about freedom of association with certain kinds of groups and being fined/arrested (should an officer chose to invoke the clause) if you are wearing a symbol of a group that has caused more than just civil disobedience and committed some violence and disruption as it could be “interpreted” to you indirectly promoting and supporting those actions. 

I dunno if that clause was modified in the assembly but—

(Well, thoughts on the law aside, it was a major déjà-vu. But frankly, Tarlock is worse than Charest.)

I have so many feels for this series, I’m so mad I lost all of my previous review post though. :(

Brief thoughts on Episode 8 and the series so far:

(SPOILERS, HOH!)

NB I didn’t see *all* of Avatar so if I make mistakes regarding the lore and mythos well I’m sorry—I was in university when S2-3 aired and I had 4 kids (Think Ikki, Jinora, Meelo and another) summarize the whole series for me at a cousin’s wedding a while back while YTV marathoned the final 4 or 5 episodes.

And I don’t know how to use the Read More tag so I lost my whole post. Sorry guys. I’ll rewrite later tonight if I feel like it :(

Read More

So… Apparently a lot of stuff goes down in ep 7? Don’t spoil, just make faces.

I’m thoroughly enjoying this series; I didn’t see all of Avatar because I went to university and was nose-to-the-books during S2 and S3. However at my cousin’s wedding party, her little cousins were watching the finale and summarized all that I missed (imagine these kids are like Ikki, Meelo and the other sibling). So many questions about Korra, so many theories. What happened to everyone 40 years ago? The ones we’ve seen in flashbacks look so cool.

Also, I wish I knew someone like Boh Lin in real life. Best character ever. (also sneaky there—I believe in Chinese, Lin=林=woods/forest, so related to earthbending. I noticed it right away)

Edit: oh wait I guess it’s ep 8. Ok /braces self

….8DDD!!!
