While the brand new Avatar Studio project has been revealed by creators Michael Dante Dimartino and Bryan Konietzko, fan-made projects of what would follow The Legend of Korra have been popping up across the interwebs. Even here at CBR we’ve been exploring and expanding on the possibilities of future Avatars beyond the two canonical series. We’ve been through a few new bending powers like woodbending, and created a whole new tribe of elemental benders living peacefully with lion turtles somewhere at the east of the Avatar map.
Today I want to introduce to you one project in particular that is ongoing, and looks quite promising: The Legend of Genji. Genji takes place after a tragedy struck Avatar Korra, when she saved the city of Ba Sing Se from an apocalyptic surge of spiritual energy. In the prologue to the new fan project, Korra prevented the city from literally exploding by using energybending and redirecting the energy skyward, which sadly ended up creating a blast that took her life. The slightly animated web comic series introduces the next Avatar in line: an earthbender, with a preference for sandbending, named Genji. When the series starts, he doesn’t know he’s the next Avatar, since the White Lotus believe they found the heir to Raava’s power in a young man named Yun.
In today’s video I’ll go over the project, introduce its cool new characters, and finally start a discussion on the future of the Avatar franchise.
