I thought I remembered a lukewarm reception for the first season, but rotten tomatoes has each season at 100% (and yeah, I know how to treat rotten tomato scores).
Comparisons to Avatar welcome.

Kipo was AMAZING and I really enjoyed it, but I MAY be the target audience. We recently finished Avatar (I must admit it was so long I lost attention a few times, but it was technically on and I was there) and Korra about the first season. I personally liked Korra better in some ways (a bit more mature) but it REALLY suffers from her forgetting her powers sometimes which has me yellin’ at the screen. 😭
Yeah, something bugged me about it my first watch but I don’t completely remember what it was. I think it had something to do with feeling like it went too big too soon, like she fought some major demon thing halfway through the show that was conceptually like 10 times as disastrous as Aang’s fight with Ozai but had a quarter the stakes and tension. I might be misremembering.
Either way, I just finished Arcane and (even though it’s a completely different type of show), I’m super in the mood for more animated fantasy adventures.
Edit: referring to Korra above if that wasn’t clear 🙂
