That's is a great theory. He just resisted bloodbending through sheer goddamn will, something Aang couldn't even do.

Fuck I missed the preview and the last couple seconds. Anyone want to tell me what happened with Korra and Mako? He was "oh so worried" and then I had to turn off the TV.

Dude's like "Cmon son, what the fucking are you doing son"

The last couple of seconds seem to show a subdued Mako on the floor watching while Amon takes Korra's bending.

Very cool how Amon's mask was on Aangs statue in the preview. Sends a message.
He's aang.

I don't believe you.
Maybe he is Koh. Did anyone else notice how his eyes faded out of existence during his Tarlok fight? Just pure black.
That's what happened.

He is a robot
Ugh, Mako is still quite the unlikable character to me. He kisses Korra and doesn't tell Asami about it (and had no intention to). And now he's completely ignoring Asami. Not that I'm a Mako/Asami shipper or anything, but he's just being an asshole to her.
How could a character named after the amazing voice actor for Iroh and Aku turn out so bad?
Meanwhile, Bolin is genuine and nice to both girls. I hope he ends up with both of them somehow, leaving Mako with his scraf.

Man Amon getting kinda blood bent and then resisting was so great.
This episode was so freaking fast though. I hope next week is important too and not some shipping bullcrap before the final because it really needed to be a two parter as well.

You already know it will be. Nothing else to do. Asami is reaching the boiling point.

Didn't Amon walk through moonlight or some light and the bloodbend stopped?
Edit: The prosecutor looked kinda like Katara, no?

I think it's pretty refreshing, really. Especially after having watched Anime get worse and worse at "dragging" on points. I like the fact the show kninda knows what you're speculating, and deals with it in fairly short order.
They get a LOT done in an episode, and it gives it a bit of a "monster / ordeal of the week" style feel, while still lending to an overall plot very effectively.
Just a classy show overall, really enjoy how it takes so many things others seem to think could never work, and yet makes them work really, really well.
Oh man, that was such a good episode.
Though I'm a little bit disappointed that the Yakone thing basically devolved into, well, basically a side arc. I'm hoping there's more to it than that, and that it somehow ties into the Amon arc too. The solution is fine as it is, but is that all we're going to see of Aang? A mere side story resolved with some engerybending and that's that?
And as for the shippers, I bet they're all jubilant this week. Mako has finally realised his true love. *snore*

Fucking hell. So much shit going on there. I saw gliders/jets dropping bombs, I saw Korra possibly Mako losing their bending, but still no Korra airbending. What's up with that?!
Seriously, I thought they got that fucking shit sorted back at the end of the tournie and with the Hiroshi thing.
Amon is the spirit of all the cabbages the Avatar and benders have wronged. They will have vengeance.
Was there a full moon in this episode? The lawyer did say Yakone didn't bloodbend during a full moon. I thought it was Yakone just playing the legend to his benefit.

If he's a cyborg then he wouldn't have even had to struggle. But there was visible struggling on his part when Tarrlok went into overdrive.
I'm going to say Spirit World.

Somebody on TVTropes posted the adult Gang VAs and Yakone
Aang- D.B. Sweeny
Toph- Kate Higgins
Sokka- Chris Hardwick
Yakone- Clancy Brown

Yep. So cringeworthy and annoying it seems to pop up in every episode.
But it was a small blemish on an excellent episode. Loved seeing the old Gaang older. Their voices were all perfect and Toph still calling Aang Twinkle Toes had me grinning like crazy.
Gotta love Sokka's reference to Combustion Man as well. I wonder if he ever got his boomerang back...
Perhaps he is actually a bender himself, but maybe like an anti-bender. Able to take away and negate other's bending when used against him?
Kind of makes sense in relation to Sokka's speech about how new forms/ways of bending are being discovered every so often. So why not an anti-bender?
