A:TLA Annotated - Now as Subtitles
I’ve created srt files with the annotations per episode. Now you can watch ATLA and read the annotations as you go, matching the appearance on screen.
I probably will be able to do one episode per week. Keep tuned!
Download the .srt for “The Boy in the Iceberg”!
I fixed the glitch, please re-download.
If your media player does not display the Chinese characters: Click here!
I am working on .srt files that let you watch the episodes with atla-annotated commentary.
But I have a small problem. I need to host the .srt files somewhere. Each file is less than 20 KB but will probably get downloaded a lot, which means I can’t use dropbox etc, since they have a limit.
Anyone with a website willing to help me host? Drop me an ask :)

MD: Asami came a little later in the development process. Once we had the idea for a nonbender revolution, we knew we’d need a character who wasn’t a bender. At first, we had planned for Asami to be an Equalist spy who was using Mako to get close to Korra. But we ended up liking her so much that we thought it was better to keep her on the good guys’ side. The development process was so important for Korra, because it allowed us to play with various story and visual concepts before the full production started.
BK: AS a self-deprecating artist, I am particularly critical of my lack of abilities when it comes to drawing women. But I wanted to challenge myself and handle Asami’s design alone. I wanted her to have sole old Hollywood glamour, while also having some kiler racing outfits in her wardrobe. Asami concepts by Bryan Konietzko.

Palace Caldera - Forbidden City
Not only is the Palace Caldera largely based on the design of the Forbidden City in Beijing, they also share a similar fate when it comes to lightning. Kinda :)
The Forbidden City burned down multiple times, the first time -not even a year after it was built- in 1421 lightning struck the central great halls i.e. the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Central Harmony and the Hall of Preserved Harmony. Most of the Forbidden City burned down, killing many of it’s residents. It was seen as such a bad omen that Emperor Yongle did not dare have the halls rebuilt. This only happened three Emperors later during the reign of Emperor Zhengtong.

Southern Water Tribe: Yurt and Igloo
Judging from their building style, the Southern Water Tribe community seems to be at least partially nomadic.
If you look closely at the village, you can see both styles, igloo and yurt, as well as a combination of the two.
We see Korra’s parents live in a home that combines the features of two nomadic building styles: The yurt and the igloo.
Like an igloo, the outside of their home seems to be covered/constructed from bricks cut from the snow/ice. Said snow-bricks seems to be build around a wooden frame structure similar to that of a yurt. Also note how the floor of their home is made from stone, not ice.
a portable, bent dwelling structure traditionally used by nomads in the steppes of Central Asia.
An igloo or snowhouse is a type of shelter built of snow, originally built by the Inuit.
Although igloos are usually associated with all Inuit, they were predominantly constructed by people of Canada’s Central Arctic and Greenland’s Thulearea.
Compare, in contrast, the building style of the Northern Water Tribe. It features no nomadic influence, but instead, shares architectural elements with a village in the Earth Kingdom.
