didn't anyone catch the loophole between TLA and LOK???

[tyltyl]

TLA- you can't bend in the spirit world

LOK- Wan and Uunlaq was shown and obviously korra will

TLA- the spirit world makes you take the appearence of a ghost like figure. giving you a blue glow that doesn't allow you to interact with anything in the real world.

LOK- Quite the opposite shows no change in character and the spirit world is a totally a different place.

for anyone that hasn't watched TLA episode it's book 1 where aang deals with a spirit attacking a village.

or not maybe loophole but just mistake...

nope korra couldn't bend she didn't come through the portal

This was explained in the latest episode. Aang always went to the Spirit World via meditation. Only his spirit went to the SW and his body remained behind, hence probably the reason he couldn't bend. Both Wan and Unalaq went via portals, both in spirit and in body, hence then the reason they could still bend, something Unalaq confirmed.

When Aang went to see Koh, I don't remember seeing him glow. That glowing was when he was still in the real world, but his spirit got severed from his body. So it was some kind of spiritual level of the real world, but not yet the real SW.

And that the SW looks different in LoK you really shouldn't be bothered by that much as it's the SW, which is pretty much ever changing and goes against common sense.
