Honestly, I have to disagree. There are plenty of good reasons for whatever remains of the Gaang to show up. For one, Korra is still learning. Katara has already been established as being close to Korra, which is kind of mirroring Roku/Aang and Gyatso's relationship. These are the people the previous Avatar was closest to. Who better to learn about him from, and learn what it means to be the Avatar from? Also, Toph freaking created Metalbending. Korra is an earthbender, who loves bending. I'm betting, given the opportunity, she would JUMP at the chance to talk to/learn from Toph.I'm sure any relevant information about the Gaang will show up when it's needed, but it's not needed right now. It's three episodes in. We know Zuko is alive from outside information that they have kindly provided about the world, but to be honest, I think crowing about how we want to see the old characters in a show that is not at all about them is sort of absurd.
Legend of Korra is about Korra, and what happening in the world after the war. When and if Toph becomes relevant, she'll show up or be mentioned. In fact, she has. Her relevance has been shown by her daughter being the head of police that use her bending style. Toph has impacted the city. But it's three episodes in. Right now Toph doesn't matter; Korra figuring out what to do about the Equalists does.
At this point, Toph showing up would be for the sole reason of having Toph show up. There has been no call for it plot-wise.
Absolutely someone would try to kill Azula. (Which would make her statement during her reign as Fire Lord very ironic). But if they succeeded, that seems like it would be a huge failure for the Gaang, Aang in particular, with his message of not needing to take a life and all. Azula was their responsibility, her restraint and her safety.Even if the public reason ends up being suicide (which I'm not sure of, that's a heavy subject for Nick to allow into a show), I'd be skeptical of that. Azula made a lot of enemies while she was in power, assassination/vengeance is a real possibility.MrRigger
Wow, I like that one a lot.And in response to your thought on Amon clearing some of Korra's spiritual blockage with his strike at the end of the episode, I disagree, because I've found another theory I like a little more. Aang spoke with Roku for the first time at Roku's temple (or the spiritual equivalent in the Spirit World), so Korra's vision could have been Aang contacting her, since she was at his memorial island.
Another theory I just recently saw is this one.
It could be coincidence, but I'm not so sure. I'm also fairly sure that if Korra's mastery of the Avatar State (and not just all four elements) comes up, it will take her a lot longer to clear her chakras than it did Aang.Spoiler: show
