I'm doing okay. I'm finally resurfacing from the school year and looking forward to a few weeks of rest, reading, and getting back to the fandoms I love.
As far as LOK, you were definitely right; the last couple of episodes were FANTASTIC! I thoroughly enjoyed them after a frustrating first half of the season. Looking back at the season as a whole, though, most of the things that bothered me are still true. The other characters are ignored or made to be wrong so that a flattering light can be cast on Mako's character. They're STILL trying to wring more drama from the Asami x Mako x Korra love triangle. Unaloq was way too reminiscent of Tarloq while not being as compelling or well-motivated. While I didn't mind the whole Bolin x Eska thing when it was played for laughs, the thing with Ginger really irritated me and I didn't find it in character for Bolin (or maybe this was how he was supposed to be all along, but he wasn't written that way in season one). There were a LOT of OOC moments for most of the major players throughout the season, especially Korra, Bolin, and Lin Beifong.
On the bright side, Verrick is crazy-awesome, always, and I was glad that even though he turned out to be not-good, he never stopped being hilarious. Bumi was great, Tenzin got some excellent development, and the Iroh cameos rocked. All of the call-backs to the original series were great, actually.
While it was massively cool to see the first Avatar and get some more explanations about the spirit world, etc, I don't feel like the new information gelled perfectly with what we were told in the first series. (Did humans learn firebending from dragons or did they get it from a lion turtle? How should we interpret all of the bending-origin stories, such as the tale of Oma and Shu?) Even though I sorta saw it coming, I disagreed with Korra's decision to leave the spirit portals open. While many spirits are benign, plenty are not (like Koh the face stealer!) and it is Korra's duty to protect humanity from them. The natural world belongs to humans, just like the spirit world belongs to the spirits, and I don't think it's Korra's decision to make on her own.
However, I am definitely excited about the third season and seeing where they take things!
