Was book 1 good?
It didn't really get me invested, the main plot is a mystery box and the episodes follow it start to (cliffhanger) finish without leaving room for smaller side stories, even though there isn't that much going on overall. It's not bad and I didn't mind the animation, but I'm also not going to lose sleep over the next season being more than half a year off.
If you just want more ATLA, you’ll likely be disappointed. But if you’re willing to avoid constantly comparing it to the old series, it’s very good.
Korra struggled from the same issue, where lots of people only wanted more ATLA, while Korra was fundamentally doing something different. Seven Havens feels like a good middle-ground between ATLA and Korra. The world’s technology being “reset” also helps things feel more like ATLA, and has kept things focused on the characters instead of the big machines.
It helps that it has a different visual style to ATLA. Makes it feel like its own entity. Also, a lot of the concepts being forgotten in world makes it even less likely that you'll be comparing the two, while still making me happy whenever something from the old world is mentioned.
I'm about half way through it and enjoying it. The quality of the animation is a bit up and down but I liked it so far.
I would murder for this one character. I really really enjoyed it.
I really enjoyed it.
I'd say so. It had a few awkward moments but it was enjoyable and I'm looking forward to the next season.
That's quick. And book 3 reported for later in the year. I assume the 4th and final book the spring after. Plus they're doing them in small batch drops.
I'm not complaining, just never seen a show release this way.
