I know the Nazi comparison tends to be easy, but honestly if anything, it's more similar to the original People's Republic of China.Kuvira is a Communist, not a Nazi. I haven't watched 5 minutes of Korra, but going to TLA, isn't the Earth Kingdom/Empire almost always supposed to be a parallel of China? If so, that's a pretty safe bet.

Yeah, Kuvira acting as something of a hodge-podge to the gamut of dictatorial personalities in the 20th century was all cozy when it was just hinted, but the racial purification element brought in the last episode tips it into creepy territory. Which I imagine brings Zuko into the fold wholesale, since Kuvira'd be targeting the Fire Nation colonies present within Earth Empire. Of course, Toph's involvement was directly foreshadowed at the ep's end.

What did you all think of Korra Abridged? Well, that's what I'm calling it.

No question who the MVP of this episode was, Varrick he single handedly saved the episode.

They had little choice but to do this recap episode. Nick slashed their episode budget to where they couldn't fully fund every episode this season, so they had two options; 1) have this season be short an episode and release several members of their staff several weeks ahead of schedule, or 2) use what little budget they had left to do as much original animation as they could for a recap episode. Clearly they went with option 2.

Clearly they went with option 2. That is really really shitty of them. Knowing that, they at least did a decent job trying to turn it into something. THe Varrick segment was great enough to save it, but it sucks that it came to that from Nick's end.

Nick's ridiculousness with this show seems limitless. Glad they stuck with and did right by their crew.

Nazi railway cannons meet Death Star. Kuvira kinda runs the gamut of evil lore.
After the minor clip-show hiccup, the show has been an absolute beast of a thing to behold. Having Toph pull one last "greatest earthbender of all time" moments before the Korra story, as a whole, finally cuts the tie with Legend of Aang's shadows was brilliant.
