Legend of Korra Season 5: Nickelodeon’s Legend of Korra was a sequel series to the wildly popular Avatar: The Last Airbender, and it ran for four seasons before it was quietly canceled ahead of season 5.
Legend of Korra focused on the new Avatar, a teenage girl named Korra, and significantly built out the mythology of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Prior to the premiere of Legend of Korra season 2, co-creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko announced at San Diego Comic-Con that Nickelodeon had ordered 26 more episodes, to be divided into seasons 3 and 4.
Following a significant drop in ratings and both makers looking to move on to different projects, Legend of Korra season 4 ended up being the show’s last and was released online in its entirety, but why was Legend of Korra canceled?

LEGEND OF KORRA MERCHANDISE
There are fewer than five figurines, which is not great. There are also more than 600 pieces of merchandise made for this series. That is a good amount.
Other than a few fantastic posters for Legend Of Korra it’s hard to find anything for the Noragami series anymore in 2023.
WHY WAS THE LEGEND OF KORRA CANCELED?
Korra ended for a variety of reasons including poor ratings and creative differences. It certainly didn’t help that Avatar and Nickelodeon had a rough start.
In 2004, Nickelodeon infamously aired a trailer for Avatar: The Last Airbender containing footage from the unaired Avatar pilot that was never intended for release.
Following Avatar‘s stellar ratings, Nickelodeon eventually took the show seriously, leading to the spinoff Legend of Korra. Though Season 5 was never on the table, any chance of it getting a green signal disappeared quickly during season 3’s run.
IS THERE ANY TRAILER YET?
There is no official trailer for Season 5, and It’s safe not to expect one to arrive anytime soon.
