big fan. tats on my skin big. changed my life big.
loved the show. good length eps, pacing might even be better than the cartoon to start. they showed respect for the source, i felt it even when i didnt like their choices.
some deviation from the source is alright, and even smart, but other story and character choices were completely out of left field and unnecessary and i can see why the creators mighta left. and the graphics can feel kinda janky, esp for certain elements (air/water). dialogue, acting and costumes maybe a bit wack at times, but overall it was quite good.
that said (briefly) id give it 4.5/5. i really love it and wanna see the end... and on to korra. i loved korra when that released too, so maybe im an exception. i see a lot of hate for this show from "fans" but i say theyd be unhappy with anything they see, just the same as they were with korra. new fan or old, i think they went for universality and reach here, so theres something for everyone.
i would have liked to see the creators stay on until completion tho.
