By me, Viralious and Drakyx. Well, it took me a lot of work to do this. Yesterday I found an edit made by EIRENITY in 2014 and didn't know if it was fan-made or an actual scene cut off, so I downloaded the video and tried to put the scene in the episode. Didn't look good, since the quality of the video was 240p while the episode was in 1080p. So today I looked up again and found out the kiss animation was a gif found in a tumblr from a user named Drakyx Also in 2014, u/Viralious edited the gif so it could look like they are kissing in the portal. They even made one with more portal aspects surrounding the girls, but the previous was the one with the higher quality that I found. Making off of this: I converted the gif to a video and downloaded it, then in Movavi I separated audio and video and cut a bit from the latter to add the scene. I reduced the scene speed, increased brightness, added a green color scheme that changed the scene slightly and cut the area of the scene to remove the black bars and keep it in the 16:9 format. (Well, I guess I did more than that, but I don't recall) You can see some things are off, like how some chords from the OST take a while to play after the end title appears, but that's the best I've got. Korra and Asami are one of the best fictional couples I've seen, I really love their development and it's perfect that after all they've been through they end up together. Unfortunately, this scene couldn't happen in the official release. Nickelodeon, instead of going after actual threats to their channel like Dan Schneider, put an overwhelming pressure on LOK's production team, demanding filler episodes, threatened to fire people from the staff and aired the whole season 4 only in their website. They censored a great part of this couple's development and their kiss at the end, because back in 2014 they thought that to show a lesbian kiss on TV could cause all of the conservative parents to prohibit their kids from watching the channel, and that's all they care about. While this is a canon couple, DiMartino could published the LOK comic confirming the couple (with an actual kiss) and explaining their relationship and why they like each other only in 2017. That's the same company that today, six years later, posts that they are “proud“ of their LGBTQ characters, including Korra. No wonder why a third series was never cogitated and Avatar is working with Netflix now.
