The fourth and fifth episodes of "Legend of Korra" Book 3 have already leaked online.
The much awaited Book 3 of "Legend of Korra" debuted last June 27, which is earlier than expected. However, some reports stated that the new season of the animated TV series suffered poor ratings due to the rushed release date. Moreover, the Book 3 lacked adequate promotion to build up interest from waiting fans.
It seemed that Nickelodeon rushed the airing of the cartoon as the synopsis of the Book 3 leaked online by its Mexican affiliate, MundoNick, last month.
"It is bad enough that it happened at all," show creator Bryan Konietzko wrote on his Tumblr account. "But it would have been a little less of a disaster had it at least been the first four episodes of the season." In response to the leak, he said that the release of later episodes led to "confusion and, at least on our end of things, frustration."
Below are the spoilers of the fourth and fifth episodes to be aired today.
In episode 4 entitled "In Harm's Way", Korra will spoil the plans of the Earth Queen after she learned that the latter is forcing all of the airbenders in Ba Sing Se to join her growing army.
Meanwhile, prisoners of White Lotus prison, Zahir, Gazan and Ming Wa, escaped and Firelord Zuko set out to capture them while he ordered to warn the Water Tribe and the Avatar about the incident.
In episode 5 dubbed as "The Metal Clan", the synopsis goes" "Korra's quest leads her and her friends to the metal city of Zaofu." More of Lin Beifong and Toph will be revealed in this episode.
According to leaks, the third season of the animated series will be more like Avatar: The Last Airbender. Lin and Bumi will play bigger roles in Book 3.
In other news, a new game of Legend of Korra is in the works and is expected to be released on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS3 and PC this coming fall. The new game will feature the events in Book 2 and 3.
