So, this week has been huge for Korra fans. First, we get images leak, then we get episodes leaking. Unfortunately, they were taken down within minutes. All of this prompted a response by Bryan Konietzko, on his Tumblr, including the picture below, as well as news that all of Book Three is done! He also talked about the damage of what the leaks could have been if the four episodes were one through four.

Howdy, friends. As you have likely already heard, four episodes from Book 3 were leaked this past weekend. It is bad enough that it happened at all, but it would have been a little less of a disaster had it at least been the first four episodes of the season. Instead, the third through the sixth episodes popped out online, causing confusion and, at least on our end of things, frustration. As you all know, these episodes take a ton of concerted effort from scores of individuals. We craft these continuous storylines and the animation as best we can, and hope that they are presented in a way that allows everyone to enjoy them to the fullest. But when leaks happen, the work we meticulously prepared for the audience is fumbled unceremoniously.  </p><br />
<p>Nickelodeon is obviously a massive corporation with outlets all over the world. These outlets get the episodes in advance so they can translate and dub them for their markets. We typically deliver the episodes to the network quite close to their U.S. premieres, but in the case of Book 3, we have actually already finished the entire season as of last week. The network has some plans in the works for it and needs to wait on its release, so we have been keeping quiet while keeping our noses to the Book 4 grindstone. Unfortunately, the longer the episodes sit on all these shelves all over the world, the probability of leaks increases.</p><br />
<p>So, yeah… It is unfortunate it played out this way. Hopefully it won’t be too much longer before Book 3 is released properly and with respect to all the people who worked hard to make it and to the audience who wants to watch it.

Today, however, we get the first official look at season three, with a trailer straight from Nick! A little thanks can go to the leaker from yesterday. But hey, I am not complaining too much. The first trailer is badass, and shows a lot of action. I cannot wait to see all of this, as well as the new villains, who look to have abilities beyond bending. Enough of me talking, here’s the trailer!
