holy cow!! I wanna watch it now!!! is there a continuation of this clip?? man it made me excited!!
Daaanngg! That was awesome! I can't wait for more Avatar!! (though it is a little weird to hear an adult in this world have a big part XD)
I don't think he'll have a necessarily, big part. Lets look at this, the guy speaking is Ang's son, and since we know being the Avatar is not genetic, he's not the avatar. What is (Presumably anyway) genetic is bending. So I believe Ang's son will be one of the only Air benders alive (perhaps he'll have a small training school saving air benders from extinction). So most likely he'll only teach Korra the Air element, then perhaps show up for the final fight, or when there in a pinch. Also as a fanboy, I'm wondering if 's the son of Ang, and Katara. Nick is almost defenitly going to withhold that information from us or nerd-bait us. I bet first episode we see hm in he'll say "My father was the avatar and my mother was a water bender", but never actually saying her name.
Katara is the mother. Aang and Katara got married and had kids. This is already confirmed.
Hopefully Aang's son plays the same kind of elderly role in this series that Zuko's uncle played in the first one. That'd be kinda cool, though I don't see anyone being funnier than Iroh when giving random cryptic advice.
i thought Korra was their daughter? that's why the trailer is about her and the show too.... maybe the opening credits was a draft of what will be said because in the trailer korra seems to be a girl that is unless their son has boobs then i'd understand....=/
That wouldnt be possible, Because when the avatar dies it is reborn into a different clan so if she was the avatars daughter then her father would have died right as she was born
Info on this is already confirmed, Aang and Katara had a son, which is the air bender.
Oh my God.. I AM STOKED.
ahhhhhhhhhhh, wish had time machine XD
yay! More bending
O my goodness, there's a Sequel!!! I'm so excited.
Best animated show of 2012, guaranteed. Get hype.
That's right. Believe it.
SQUEEEE!!!
omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can't wait for this to be out!!!!!!
I am VERY hyped for this series, and these videos make the wait that much harder! D:
aang's grand daughter... calling it now
I'd be surprised if she WASN'T.
She's not. A bunch of information about the characters has already been release. The heroine is not related to the other characters in any way - beyond being Aang's reincarnation, of course. It seems she's going to be taught Airbending by Aang's son (presumably the person narrating the opening).
CANT WAIT!!!
Man cant wait. To bad this video will be removed uber quick. watch while you can
I wan't to see more!!! :D
Avatar was EASILY my favorite American cartoon.
I may be a tad old for this, BUT I AM SO WATCHING IT.
You're never too old for cartoons!
I'm forty, and I going to be watching it. Who cares man, have fun.
Looks amezing but shame that aang is dead.:(
Even if this isn't technically an anime I get anime chills from just watching this XD Can't wait!!!
i cant wait to see this!
Where can I watch this???????
Comes out Mid 2012 on Nickelodeon, or so the article says.
<33333333333333333!!!!!!! :DDDD
NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE! And that would be so cool if that's adult Aang in the intro!
OMFG I CAN NOT WAIT!!!! CAPS LOOOOOOCCCKKKKK!!!!!
so apparently katara and ang had three children which only one is known as of now (Tenzin) he is Korra's airbending master. He is the youngest of Aang and Katara's three children, and the only one that is an airbender. He has three children himself, that are all airbenders Jinora( girl) Ikki(girl) Meelo (boy) :)
AAAGLSFINTSRAAAGD! LFLFLFLFL!
Wow, so excited! I hope I grow to love the new characters as much as the og's :)
why is it still called The last airbender? D:

in the time this series takes places theres already 4 airbenders alive that we know of D:
Because they can't use Avatar in the title because of something to due with James Cameron.
The "Avatar" name was sold to James Cameron.

Cmeron's "Avatar" and M. Night Shyamalan's "Avatar: The Last Air Bender" were scheduled to come out at about the same time in the theaters so Cameron bought the name.

Hence forth it's just "The Last Air Bender" series, no more "Avatar." Only the original series of video can use the "Avatar" name, everything else (toys, games, future videos, etc) can't.

It was a rather short-sighted decison to sell the name, in my opinion.
James Cameron's Avatar wasn't even that good. Visuals were exceptional but the story was 'meh'.

At least Avatar:The Last Airbender had magic, intrigue and FIRE.

James Cameron's Avatar had aliens, mechs, advanced technology, and and arrogant hot headed human military.
They didn't "sell" the name--they only bought the rights to it for the Small Screen (TV) when they created the series. When you make a time machine, YOU can go back, tell the A:TLA producers that their animated series is going to be SO successful it'll be optioned into a movie Series (and don't let M. Night get signed on as director), and Cameron's story can be a hit with a different name. Happy?
Incidentally, James Cameron ONLY has the right to use the term for movies: there will never be a small screen "Avatar" series based on James Cameron's movie(s) with that name, because the animated series has the rights to that.
YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!! The animation and music's got it stepped up a notch and the action looks epic! I'm going to miss Aang, Zuko, Katara, Sokka, etc, but I am so stoked for this! if the trailer and opening are anything to go by, I'm going to love this almost as much as the previous series. Because I don't know how it would be possible to be more epic than the original.

I like that polar bear dog.
That.... is beautiful. :,)
From the short clips it looks like the new avatar was either born to the fire (type of bending she is using) or water (some of the clothes she wears).

Can't wait.
She's a waterbender. The Avatar cycle is water to earth, earth to fire, fire to air, and then back to water.
I CANNOT WAIT, I loved the series and when the movie came out, I was disappointed.. From the videos I have seen of this, THIS IS GONNA BE ANOTHER EPIC SERIES, PLEASE COME OUT FAST!!!
YES YES YES YES YES YES!
I got to go with, YES YES YES YES YES YES! = )
eeee that chick was cold she gon be tearin ppl up
I don't believe that it'll be better than the original...but it's possible that it can be just as great.
The sequel is a new world with technology involved. I'll miss Aang and everyone,
but I'm sure that he'll show up somehow. Visions. Dreams. Meditating.
Legend of Korra? I can't wait to watch it.
There is going to be a comic that sets itself right after the the end of the first TV series Called Avatar: The Last Promise, I think.
This looks super amazing! Ahhh!!! I can't wait! :D
cant freaking wait!!!
although not going to lie it hurts me a little to know Aang is dead :(
I can only hope that this series doesnt get disgraced like that live action crap that came out earlier...
If crunchyroll can get the license to show it on here it would be super super awesome!!
Lmao funny if its Sokka's grandkid
O.O It's...Beautiful. The backgrounds, the scenery, the characters!
Absolutely loved watching Legend of Aang. It's definitely a notch higher up than most american cartoons out.
Better go back in mental age by a few years....
I know it's technically not an anime show but how great would it be if CR was able to get this show onto the website, particularly if they get the original show on here as a build up to the new episodes.

It would deffo raise the profile for the release of the sequel, Nicko and CR should try and make this happen.
Can't wait! Looks like they took their time to make sure it's good and not a rushed-through grab for $$$. I wonder if Korra will get to knock down a cabbage seller...
nice i try to watch what full lenght
Once a released date gets officially put out, I think I'm going to go back and watch the full series on netflix again. ~I'm soooo excited. <3
I knew they would make another, the first series kind of ending with a cliff haneger, Cant wait to see the new one ^^
And they really made the martial arts go from good to great, Stepped up the game with animation too. Two thumbs up
aww poopy, mid-2012? i'm only gonna be able to see a few episodes until i enlist to the military D~; guess i'll just have to wait until I'm back then i can grab a box set haha
omg i want to see this!!!! badass main characters that are GIRLS FTW!!!!!
This is extremely awesome! I'm a little sad about the flipped-ness though...
It already looks better animated than the first season.
I absolutely CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH THIS!!!!!!!
Cannot wait
WooHOOO! TLA was one of my family's favorite animations EVER! The trailer looks gorgeous, btw! So exciting!
looks awesome
well isn't water the next cycle after air...
EPIC!!! I.CAN.NOT.WAIT!
Let me tell you, I have goosebumps watching this. I absolutely LOVE it! I'm looking forward to watching this.
Oh and i saw new version of Soka at the end..He must be the "funny guy."
Darn it I want to know what the hell happen

I CAN"T WAIT!
The Deets. Set 70 years after the events of the first series. Korra is the latest incarnation of the Avatar and comes from the southern water tribe. She is around 16 to 17 years old (although we'll see her at age 5 in flashbacks) and has already mastered the elements of fire, water and earth. Korra must travel to Republic city (which was founded bu Aang and Zuko) to find Tenzin ( youngest child of Aang and Katara and the only Airbender in the family). Tenzin has 3 kids (all Airbenders) and a forth on it's way with his wife Pema (who is not a bender).
Korra will be accompanied her Polar Beardog Naga and the brothers Mako and Bolin (interestingly the brothers have different bending powers one is a fire and the other is earth showing the mixing pot that is Republic city, presumably their parents were from different tribes) these 4 will be the main charectors in the series although I'm sure Tenzin and his family will play a huge part of the first season.
There is a sport called professional bending which will be like mixed matial arts with bending in huge arenas. The teams of 3 are made up of fire, earth and water benders 1 of each.
There is an elite police unit of metalbenders who were initially trained by Toph and her daughter is the Chief of police.
Aang will only appear in spirit form to guide Korra as the earlier Avatars appered to Aang in the original series.
The main baddies are Chi blockers a group of anti benders lead by Amon and are called The Equalists.
Two seasons are confirmed season 1 will be 12 eps and season 2 will be 14 eps making 26 in all.
There is more info on the interwebs if you want to try the googles
Thanks for the details. Already stoked.
YAY!!~ I loved the original Avatar series, so i'm really excited for this one too :3
And the internet exploded with high-pitched whines and shrieks from those who remember the original, now being in their upper teens and lower twenty's.

That aside, before anyone asks "How could they have advance technology so fast?", I rebuttal you with this. They had a huge, complex drill that was self propelled in order to take over The Earth Nation Capital (Ba-Sing-Sa, if I remember/spell it correctly). Is it really hard to see this kinda of advancment in less than 50 years?
from the look of things she picks up fire pretty quickly, which is a bit of a surprise. Both Roku and Ang had trouble mastering their opposition element. I guess it's a testament to this girl having something of a fiery temper.

I hear it's slatted for 2 seasons

Can't wait
Can't wait for this series. So many questions. Probably they'll be cleared up by the graphic novel.
When does the new graphic novels come out? Hopefully they can tide me over til the show starts.
The Promise part 1 comes out on January 25th, 2012, and part 2 will come out on May 30th,2012. The 3rd part should come out by the fall of 2012.
Awesome thanks!
WOOHOO!!! So stoked for this. been so long since I'd heard anything that I was beginning to think they cancelled it.
This is gonna be a great series in its own right but one of the main reasons I'm excited is that I'm sure we'll get some info on what happened after the war. Especially with Zuko & family
This is exciting! I hope it keeps the humor of the original series.
Awesome! Looking forward to when this is finally released!
The last thing I heard on this topic is that Korra is the granddaughter of Sokka. If you look closely you can see the resemblence as well. It was Aang's son who taught Korra the air element. But in any event it will definetly be a great show to watch, whoever her parentage is!
lol wtf its mirrored. o well, looks cool
too bad Aang is dead :(
NOOOOOOOOO HES DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY!?!?!? AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!! THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS TO MY FAV CHARACTERS!!!!
Yeah, the mirror bothered me too...
