Breaking Wind: “Darkness Falls” (The Legend of Korra – Book 2: Spirits)

This week on Breaking Wind, Jason and the gang dive into one of the most intense and emotional episodes of The Legend of Korra — “Darkness Falls.” It’s the episode where everything hits the fan: the spirit world turns into a cosmic horror show, Korra faces her literal inner demons, and Unalaq continues to prove that he’s the world’s worst uncle since Scar threw Mufasa off a cliff.

We break down Korra’s desperate battle against Vaatu, the tragic consequences of Raava’s capture, and why this episode feels like a fever dream powered by equal parts beauty, terror, and questionable life choices. We also talk about the animation glow-up, the soundtrack that slaps harder than a bending duel, and how this episode set up one of the wildest finales in the entire series.

🎙️ In this episode you’ll hear:

Why Unalaq is basically “Spiritual Taxes: The Character”

The return of Iroh and why it hit us right in the feels

How Jinora officially became the MVP of the Spirit World

Our theories on why bending energy is a bad idea after midnight


So light a candle, avoid dark portals, and come join us as we tumble into the chaos of “Darkness Falls.”
