If they thought the show was only going to be twelve episodes, they should have tried even harder to develop their characters and their plot correctly in such a short time. Instead, they shoved a horrible romantic melodrama down our throats. That finale just took all the good points about the series: the politics, the villian, and the loss of bending, and just rendered each point mute. Korra had promise and the high production values to go along with it, but I just regret ever watching it and ever liking it. /nerdy rant

As for why It is compared to Young Justice, I guess its just because both series were on about the same time and have the same dorky kid-to-adult demographic (which I am proud to be part of). Aside from that, they are very different shows.
