    Steven Yeun is joining the cast as Wan, the very first Avatar
    Wan’s story will take place ten thousand years before Korra’s time, and follow the teenage explorer and skilled bender as he tries to bring balance between mankind and the spirits, a quest that ultimately leads to becoming the first Avatar.
    ”To depict the world in Wan’s time, the creative team drew inspiration from ancient and traditional East Asian ink wash paintings and woodblock prints for the environments, color palettes, and stylizations of the elements,” said a Nickelodeon representative. “The results expand the vision of the Avatar world, but also stay very true to the building blocks of its visual influence.”

    This is awesome. I was actually thinking about if they would ever talk about the first avatar and how many there had been.

    So I guess "Wan" means "10,000" as in "Wan Shi Tong" (He who knows 10,000 things)

    Most likely how they came up with his name

    what if he is the owl

    How do we know Korra isn't Wan Shi Tong? Have we ever seen them in the same room?

    We've seen Wan Shi Tong and Aang in the same room.

    Aang is Korra.

    So I brought the news about Korra and the introduction of the First Avatar character to my bf's attention; Kyle's an introductory Buddhist, and has explained and pointed out many of the Buddhist elements in Korra. He told me that was interesting, because one of the major stories in Buddhism is about the Buddha trying to find his first reincarnation, and how he eventually couldn't because they were infinite.

    Now we're both thinking that will be a major theme for Book 2.

    Well the avatar is the spirit of the planet

    It may not have always incarnated as a human master of all four elements but I bet it's been around in some form or another forever

    Was the animation style a little different for the scenes with the first avatar?

    OH MAN OH GEEZ OH MAN

    Real talk Korra is my favorite show on TV right now in spite of its flaws and that trailer has me so hyped I'm ready to explode

    All that craft, all that art, the animation, the music

    It's so gorgeous I have an emotional reaction to it as a piece of craft
