Yes, FatK55, I am with you.

I think the longer we find villains that aren’t Amon, the more likely that Amon ends up being not as villainous as we think. 

I’m starting to think that Yakone is our rouge firebender who has been killing everyone’s parents (seriously, what’s with fire benders killing parents?) and Aang had to put him down. In that sense, Korra and Amon could end up being on the same side of the issue after Korra remembers whatever she’s supposed to from those flashback glimpses.

Either way, yes, up until last week I would have told you that I was 70% sure that Amon would be sympathetic by the end of his arc. Then he blew up the pro-bending arena and I was like: “Ugh, well, that’s kind of drak, but maybe there’s something more here…”

…

…

…and I’m waiting for Amon to show up again.

Thanks for the theory! I like it!
