Nickelodean's "Avatar: The Last Airbender" Discusion

[Pimp of Pimps]

Do you think Iroh's gonna try and take back the throne? Or at least fight his brother?

[Apollo_alice]

My friend finally got me hooked on this show, and now i'm too waiting in earnest for everything and anything new.

I especially can't wait for more Iroh.

[Snow]

I wish the next ep would hurry up and come. :mad

[Pimp of Pimps]

I wish the next ep would hurry up and come. :mad

You must be patient my son for waiting will make it all the much sweeter when it comes.

[rockst☆r sin]

According to the posts here, it seems like they ended on episode 3.

I didn't see chibi #1. Just 2 and 3.

[rockst☆r sin]

I now got the chance to see episode 4 and that was a great episode. Iroh gets cooler and cooler every time.

[Hio]

Yeah Iroh will beat the bald man with 3 eyes:yell

[LIL_M0]

I now got the chance to see episode 4 and that was a great episode. Iroh gets cooler and cooler every time.
WRONG! Iroh always has been that cool. It just took 3 years for mortal minds to finally beable to comprehend. :nod

[Snow]

Do you think Iroh's gonna try and take back the throne? Or at least fight his brother?

He might take the throne at the end of the series but he got pwned by Azula so I doubt he's going to hold much water up against the Fire Lord.

[RacheT]

Do you think Iroh's gonna try and take back the throne? Or at least fight his brother?

He might fight his brother, and possibly weaken him some before he's unable to continue fighting. Aang will finish him off I guess. I don't think he'll take the throne, we'll probably see one of the newer generation taking it, Iroh's a bit past his prime to start ruling a nation.

[Pimp of Pimps]

He might take the throne at the end of the series but he got pwned by Azula so I doubt he's going to hold much water up against the Fire Lord.

He only got hit by Azula because 1. He was caught off guard and 2. He was out of shape. He has since trained himself, seemingly back to his previous physical level. I'm pretty sure he can at least give his younger brother a good ass whooping, if not defeat him.

Remember, Iroh was the crown prince his whole life until the day his father died.

He might fight his brother, and possibly weaken him some before he's unable to continue fighting. Aang will finish him off I guess. I don't think he'll take the throne, we'll probably see one of the newer generation taking it, Iroh's a bit past his prime to start ruling a nation.

Honestly, I think Aang is meant for something other than the Firelord.

[rockst☆r sin]

WRONG! Iroh always has been that cool. It just took 3 years for mortal minds to finally beable to comprehend. :nod

What's the moral of your story? Iroh was my second favorite character since Book 1.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Second?

Who could possibly me more likable than Iroh? :mad

[rockst☆r sin]

I'm a sucker for main characters.

[LIL_M0]

What's the moral of your story? Iroh was my second favorite character since Book 1.
Second favorite?! It seems like some take longer to comprehend the greatness that is, Iroh: The Great Dragon of the West, than others...

Another year should make you come to your senses. :nod

[narutofangd]

Second?

Who could possibly me more likable than Iroh? :mad

Zuko .

Zuko .

Top 3 is Aang, Iroh, and Sokka. Katara and Toph is cool but they annoy me sometimes.

[LIL_M0]

Lol, I know what you mean. Here are my faves:

adult: Iroh
male: Sokka
female: Toph

[Omega id]

Something tells me Azula is stronger than the fire lord...

Anyway, thats an awsome edit Zol... Iroh is like the batman of this show... remember... they only win once... but never again. :P

Can someone make me an animated gif of Iroh doing 1 handed pull ups? lol

[The Sentry]

Male: Zuko
Female: Toph
Adult: Guru Pathetic

[Omega id]

Male: Toph
Female: Toph
Adult: Iroh

lol male being Toph is on purpose cause I actually don't have a favorite male character... Sokka's alright but not good enough to be a fav... besides... Toph is manlier than all of the avatar characters... except for Iroh. lol

[rockst☆r sin]

Adult: Iroh
Male: Aang/Sokka (Sokka is a pimp)
Female: Toph

[RacheT]

Honestly, I think Aang is meant for something other than the Firelord.

well I didn't mean Aang. I meant Zuko. Like it or not he's the kind of character that can't stay evil. He'll probably do the same thing to the Fire Nation that he did to his uncle and Katara at end of season 2. Iroh is too humble to become a Fire Lord, I think. :LOS

[rockst☆r sin]

Zuko can't even defeat Azola, his little sister. I really doubt he could match the Fire Lord. Iroh fighting him would be cool but you know this is going to Aang.

http://i20.tinypic.com/radhk4.jpg

[Snow]

Zuko .

I lol'd. Not sure if I was supposed to, though.

My fave will have to be Aang, regardless of the fact that I hate his voice with a passion.

[RacheT]

Zuko defeating Ozai? :LOS


Noo :scry lol

Aang would end up defeating Ozai (since he's the main character and all) and, assuming Zuko's still not being an ass to basically everyone, would want to take the throne and shape the Fire Nation into something better than it currently is. Of course for that to happen the plot would have to flesh out in it's favor, but it's pretty likely Iroh will end up teaching Aang firebending, and I don't think Zuko will stay angry at Iroh/Iroh angry at Zuko. Iroh's always been a median between two conflicts, so Zuko might not become friends with Aang, but he might learn to respect him and his aspiration.

[Pimp of Pimps]

I think Aang might not defeat Ozai. It looks to me like Aang might have to take care of a greater threat. the comet maybe.

Regardless, Iroh is obviously preparing for something. And yeah, he probably is going to teach Aang firebending.

[LIL_M0]

Ok, here's what I don't get:
Aang, somehow, is the only person capable of bending more than one element. That's... weird. Shouldn't any child be able to pick these things up. I mean, children learn things a lot faster than adults.

My nephews ar only 5 and 6 but they are fluent in Spanish. Neither my brother or their mom speak Spanish, they just learned it from the kids in the neighborhood.

I know it's a cartoon and all, but why aren't their other people who can "multi-bend"? I'm only 10, maybe 15% nerd. So I don't go the extra mile by going to conventions, reading the interviews and whatnot. Maybe someone here knows the answer? :huh

[Pimp of Pimps]

Because people are born with the ability to bend, and no one bu the Avatar is born with the ability to bend more than one element. you can't just learn bending if you aren't born with the power.

[RacheT]

Can someone make me an animated gif of Iroh doing 1 handed pull ups? lol

http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd219/Flarecast/Irohpullup-1.gif

:LOS ?

Polygon: I guess that's possible, I mean, it is a freakin' comet and all :P Still I don't see Iroh defeating Ozai on his own. It's possible Iroh faces off against him, but isn't as strong. Zuko shows up and together they defeat him, or some corny crap like that.

What Polygon said. Even if there were people that could bend more than one element, the benders are scattered throughout separate cultures so if someone from the Water Tribe waltzed into the Fire Nation and was like "I can haz firebending?" they'd get lolb&.

Though it is a bit weird how people are born with the ability to bend in accordance to their nation's element. I wouldn't mind elaboration on that but they probably won't.

[LIL_M0]

Thanks polygon.

nso that would be interesting. A fire bender born in the artic would probably melt the village and get exiled. :lmao

RacheT are you making the Aang gif as well?

[Pimp of Pimps]

Why can't Iroh be as strong or stronger than Ozai?



Though it is a bit weird how people are born with the ability to bend in accordance to their nation's element. I wouldn't mind elaboration on that but they probably won't.

I thought about that a while ago, and there is one explanation I came up with. Over time, people with the same bending affinity starting grouping together. eventually these groups became, tribes, then villages, then Nations. Eventually, the nations was lose the genes of every element exept their own.

Hm, makes sense. Or because all the royalty of most of the nations are benders of the one element, they are the founding fathers and thus most of the citizens are relatives, and from there what you said came into play and other clans of benders would move into their respected nations.

But then what about if a Water bender + fire bender interracial baby is born? :LOS

Or for that matter what if the Avatar has a child? Honestly, the previous avatars are old as hell. I find it hard to believe they didn't have kids. Maybe they go the Jedi way like the Indian guy suggested Aang do, and they're beyond human to human connections?

[Pimp of Pimps]

But then what about if a Water bender + fire bender interracial baby is born? :LOS

I'd say they'd be either fire, water, or none.

If the Avatar had kids I guess the kid would most likely get whatever element the Avatar was born in. Like Aang's kid would be a airbender, Roku's a firebender etc.

They'd produce the world's first steam bender. :del

[Snow]

For that matter...wtf are 'sand benders' a variant of?

[RacheT]

[QUOTE=Polygon;11274849]Why can't Iroh be as strong or stronger than Ozai?

Logically, it's possible. However, for the same of the story The strongest antagonist (assuming it's Ozai until proven otherwise) is stronger than every single character except the main character. Iroh defeating him on his own seems unreal, but considering that Zuko and Iroh both have/had strong relations with Ozai, it's possible that both of them can take him down. That's assuming that Aang is somehow unable to face off with Ozai.

A side note. Wouldn't it make sense to have Aang fight Ozai? I mean, the comet and all will be weakening firebending. Aang, having earth, water, and air at his disposal would have much more of an advantage over Iroh (and Zuko), unless they somehow miss the comet and have to fight Ozai at full strength.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Sand bender are just earth bender who bend sand.

[Nizuma Eiji]

^^ROFL a steam bender would be so useless. Well at least until it was time for dinner.

[The Sentry]

Sand benders are earth benders that use the style of air bending. That what i think anyways

[LIL_M0]

For that matter...wtf are 'sand benders' a variant of?
My guesse Earth and Air. That's where my steam bending idea came from. :nod

That's assuming that Aang is somehow unable to face off with Ozai.

But Iroh was always more favored than Ozai in just about everything by his father. Iroh is his older brother. Iroh is one of the only firebenders known for his great skill and power. Not only that but he's depicted as one of the strongest guys in the series. He should be the firelord. Ozai probably killed hi dad and forged the will. Iroh is to Ozai what azula is to Zuko, only without the evil.

Ozai could be stronger, I just doubt it.

Aang, having earth, water, and air at his disposal would have much more of an advantage over Iroh (and Zuko), unless they somehow miss the comet and have to fight Ozai at full strength.I think there's gonna be more of a main obstacle than a main villain. Kinda like OP. think of Ozai as the WG and whatever Aang has to do and getting one piece.

[RacheT]

Sand=Earth. All that's different in bending sand would be that the way they move the earth is in miniscule pieces of earth. Katara created a mist in ep 3-01 and 3-03, so I doubt steam would be comprised of both air and water. It's probably just water.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Benders can probably change the molecular density of their elements.

[Nizuma Eiji]

Sand benders are earth benders that use the style of air bending. That what i think anyways

Nah sand benders are just regular Earth Benders who happen to live around alot of sand. I mean as you can see in the Library as the sand benders were taking Appa away Toph turned around for a minute to attempted to make the sand attack them, but she couldnt see where they were so all she could do was just make it rise & move a few feet.

[Snow]

Anyone know exactly what episode the sand benders are in?

[LIL_M0]

Anyone know exactly what episode the sand benders are in?
The Fury of Aang: s02e10 and s02e11
the Library amd the Desert

[The Question]

I don't think we've seen everything Iroh is capable of yet, which I guess is probably obvious. Even if he's not stronger than Ozai, he should at least give him a run for his money and possibly an ass whooping, even if he doesn't win.

Regardless, prepare for Iroh Pwnage.:nod

lol, yeah. I agree he's strong, but I just don't think he alone can take down Ozai. It'd be a better fit to see Zuko helping him. Zuko and Iroh have been traveling throughout two entire seasons (excluding the last few minutes of Ba Sing Se's finale) and it'd be wrong to see them not have some type of closure of being loyal to each other. Zuko wouldn't really have a part to play in any of this season if he stays loyal to Ozai.

[Snow]

Well now that I think about it, there's been nothing to say Iroh couldn't match Ozai.

It's been said that only the Avatar could stop the fire nation, but Ozai himself is a different story. Nothing separates the two but age and status.

Exactly. Everybody always thinks Ozai is some kind of God because of his status, but the fact remains that Iroh was always better than him. At least in the eyes of their father. and he has a bigger name imo.

[Snow]

Yeah, isn't it a bit odd how Ozai was simply chilling back at the palace while Iroh was out trying to penetrate Ba Sing Sae?

I'm not a fan of Zuko but I want to know what exactly happened with his Mom and Fire Lord Azul.

[RacheT]

Exactly. Everybody always thinks Ozai is some kind of God because of his status, but the fact remains that Iroh was always better than him. At least in the eyes of their father. and he has a bigger name imo.

Not at all. I don't doubt Iroh being stronger than Ozai, but for plot purposes I think he's going to be weaker. It'd make a much better ending to the season to see Iroh being assisted by Zuko, and together they take him down. Rather than Iroh taking him down on his own. The potential coming from that, emotionally, I think would be much greater if Zuko and Iroh are able to fight side by side.

[Pimp of Pimps]

I think Ozai and/or Azula might have killed Azulan and perhaps forged his will.

With Zuko's mom, it's quite the mystery. some people say she killed Azulan because he threatened to make Ozai feel what it would be to lose a son. Some say she ran. Some say Azula killed her.

The potential coming from that, emotionally, I think would be much greater if Zuko and Iroh are able to fight side by side.

Perhaps, but how would Zuko help in the fight? He's strong, but not strong enough to go against people like Ozai, Iroh, Bumi etc.

Hm. I didn't think about his Mom killing Ozai, that makes the most sense to me.

lol at Azula killing him. That doesn't seem the least bit possible. She was like 7 years old, and I doubt that's the type of message Nickelodeon wants to give off.

I always thought maybe his mother took Zuko's place for Ozai's disregard for Iroh's loss, but the death of Azulan that same night is a bit too fishy for that.

Oh and Zuko is MoMo level. :LOS

http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd219/Flarecast/aangnightmare-1.gif


Polygon: At the risk of taking a swing at the show, I think they might do anything they can to create that "touchy-feely" aspect for the show. Zuko might not help a lot, but just enough to defeat Ozai. Teamwork seems to be the general idea of the show, so I think they'll go about it like that.

Iroh is as awesome as you can get in this series, but the spotlight seems to be more set on Zuko, and I don't think he's capable of doing anything productive unless he returns to his uncle. Iroh going it alone just doesn't seem likely.

[Pimp of Pimps]

I meant Azula killing her mom. :sag

[Superstarseven]

Pretty awesome of Zuko to do the one-inch punch(or shove) on that guy.
As for Azula, she is a firebending prodigy or in Naruto terms, a genius. So while very formidable at the age of 14 you'll notice that if she hadn't taken out Iroh, who was looking at Toph, at the end of The Chase she most definitely would have been beat.
Azula can be taken down as shown in The Crossroads Of Destinyand if Zuko hadn't intervened, Katara would have definitely won.

I'm guessing that they were posing as normal teenagers for a night on the town. Because I don't think even a teenage idiot would provoke the son of the Firelord and the killer of the avatar.

She analyzes everything like a battle strategy. I thought it kinda cool.

She basically made the ball combust.....:lmao

Yeah but just destroy a guy's house and everything is good again

[Kameil]

:lmao they took their anger out on the party

[LIL_M0]

Well, El'Tigre is on now. *turns off tv*

[Snow]

Well...that was a waste of 30 minutes.

[RacheT]

Awesome episode lol. We didn't get a lot of action from Aang against the assassin, but the stuff we did get was great.

[Gamma Akutabi]

At least now we got some insight into why the Azula & Co. act the way they do. Aside from the almost tearful confessions, it was a funny episode.

Edit: Why would Zuko burn the picture of his family? Does it tie into his anger?

[RacheT]

At least now we got some insight into why the Azula & Co. iact the way they do. Aside from the almost tearful confessions, it was a funny episode.

I was waiting for Zuko to totally screw everything up and drop the "Avatar is alive" bomb.

[Snow]

At least now we got some insight into why the Azula & Co. iact the way they do. Aside from the almost tearful confessions, it was a funny episode.

Those were the only parts I laughed. :notrust

[kakoishii]

unfortunately I missed the first 5 minutes, but on the plus side this is probably one of my favorite fillerish episodes they've aired thus far. I loved how they showed the real "high school-esque" Nature of Azula and the gang, it helps to remind us that despite the fact that Azula is evil and the rest of her group has issues they're still teenagers.

[Noah]

I thought they were turning each of the girls' personalities into a running joke until that bonfire scene. Then all I wanted was for Zuko to uppercut Ty Lee and Azula for being a couple of retards.

[LIL_M0]

Those were the only parts I laughed. :notrust
Yeah, it was mostly boring. I laughed at things that weren't supposed to be funny... Like the messenger hawk getting onened. :lmao

[Apollo_alice]

I loved the Zuko tantrums. they always make me laugh.

I was kind of disappointed we didn't get to see more Iroh, but still a funny episode.

[Piekage]

I liked the ep. Gives you some insight on the characters. Azula's "WE WILL RULE THE EARTH!!" scene was LoL. However, I find a lack of Sokka and Irou disturbing. And fucked up.

[The Drunken Monkey]

I know, if Iroh is not in the episode, it is not pimping.

But this is an exception with Tai-Li(sp?). Pretty damn hotttttttttttt.

I'm getting tired of Zuko, starting to lose faith in him.

[Pimp of Pimps]

This episode was meh. I was disappointed that we didn't get to see more Iroh.

Also, I've concluded that Zuko can only be cool (as cool as Zuko can be that is) when he's around Uncle.

I think we were supposed to sympathize with them. :lmao
didn't happen, except for maybe Ty li. Or however you spell her name

[Protect_The_Butter]

Well I guess Azula is heterosexual. Other than that though, this episode sucked. They're trying to hard to humanize the villains.

[Noah]

So....then we're supposed to view these kids as soulless shells that are only around to fit to villain slots?

And wait. When the hell did Zuko go back to being a villain again?

[Apollo_alice]

They're trying to hard to humanize the villains.

I felt that way too. If they did it over a longer period of time it might work better but for now they are supposed to think they are better than everyone else. Azula acting normal (well as normal as she can be) just seemed off. I loved her failing miserably and scaring the guy away.

[Pimp of Pimps]

So....then we're supposed to view these kids as soulless shells that are only around to fit to villain slots?

Azula and the other girl are supposed to be pretty much emotionless and ruthless evil bitches. Tai Li is supposed to just be a cheerful girl that happens to be on the dark side. that's how I've seen it.

And wait. When the hell did Zuko go back to being a villain again?

Since he betrayed Iroh.

[Raiden]

The episode wasn't half bad. It's about time we got to see some insight on these characters. I didn't know Azula was so desparate nor did I know that Zuko was so conflicted to the point where he can't control himself. I was kind of wishing that Mai and Zuko didn't get back together and that the story would lead to somewhere else. However, it's been set in stone....

[rockst☆r sin]

Whoa did you see Ty Lee's body? Yeah she just became my favorite female character (she was up there already with Toph) and I wouldn't mind her being Sokka's love interest.

[Noah]

Azula and the other girl are supposed to be pretty much emotionless and ruthless evil bitches. Tai Li is supposed to just be a cheerful girl that happens to be on the dark side. that's how I've seen it.


Since he betrayed Iroh.

Ehhh.....I guess.

Azula really seems to be the only one who is actually evil. Ty Lee (or however the hell you spell her name) and Mai always seemed like were only really along for the ride. Ever since The Crossroads of Destiny they seemed like they'd eventually turn on Azula when she got too out of control. She's really the only one that is actually being written like a villain.

Zuko may be in the 'villain' group right now, but that's definitely not how his character is growing. I haven't considered Zuko a villain since the end of season one. He's more or less an anti-hero.

[RacheT]

Yeah, it was mostly boring. I laughed at things that weren't supposed to be funny... Like the messenger hawk getting onened. :lmao

That's the only part I lol'd at, when you see the messenger hawk falling from like 200 feet in the air onto the ground cause it gets tied up. :lmao

[Apollo_alice]

I agree that Zuko is more of an anti-hero, and i hope that he redeems himself at some point. As far as the girls are concerned, I really didn't like them, especially Azula at first but now i really do. They are such random friends, only brought together at first by class, but that stuck together despite huge personality differences.

[C_Akutabi]

But this is an exception with Tai-Li(sp?). Pretty damn hotttttttttttt.

And she apparently has a bunch of sisters who look just like her :nuts

[Protect_The_Butter]

So....then we're supposed to view these kids as soulless shells that are only around to fit to villain slots?

And wait. When the hell did Zuko go back to being a villain again?


It would be different if we knew all of them from the begining. But they made Mai and Azula into good, quality villains and they're throwing it all away in 1 season of sped up charecter development.


And Zuko well you know what I mean.

[LIL_M0]

That's the only part I lol'd at, when you see the messenger hawk falling from like 200 feet in the air onto the ground cause it gets tied up. :lmao
I know! I've watched that scene like 6 times now, but it always brings the lulz. :lmao

[The Drunken Monkey]

Anyone who betrays Iroh is a douche.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Anyone who betrays Iroh is a douche.

This is so true it's not even funny.

Because Iroh is a fuckawesomewin old man with a big gray beard and bugling man muscles (though not testosterone sterois nasty muscles) and does one armed pull ups and polytroemic push ups and can fire bend and was a general and is supposed to be firelord and is humble ans is cool and all that shit.

The win episode comes when Iroh beats the shit out of Zuko and drags him back with him. :pek

[Robotkiller]

I missed the new episode!

Damn you to hell, Halo 3. Damn you to hell:cry

[Shade]

An upload would be nice.

[Dimezanime20]

How could this episode not have won the hearts of many? I mean besides the fast make up and kissing, I think this episode was freaking funny! And then there was also the action! The first part with the group was freaking sweet animation! Azula cracked me up and was really sexy in this episode. How could you guys not have liked it? Plus we got to know more about Zuko, Azula, May, and Tai Li. Then there was the whole break up scene between Zuko and May which I know a lot of Zutara fans must've been rejoicing...only to be mindfucked again!lmao Now that was for the lulz.

[Apollo_alice]

The win episode comes when Iroh beats the shit out of Zuko and drags him back with him. :pek

There will be at least a 10 minute non-stop squee when that happens. *sigh* I miss the Earth Kingdom arc.

[HEATAQUA]

We are all very disappointed. :pek

Earth Kingdom was a great arc, but I'm sure this season will be as good if not better. :nod

[Apollo_alice]

True, I do love the new season. Especially the outfits. The fire nation seems to have the best fashion sense.

[Dimezanime20]

We are all very disappointed. :pek

I'm not. The only thing disappointing was how short the ending was. I wanted to see more of the rampage. Though with this whole episode, it kinda makes me wonder if somewhere inside of her, Azula will now have some sympathy for Zuko? But then again she kinda gave her reasons for disliking Zuko so much (their mother's love).

lol, I meant, we were disappointed that he chose Halo over Avatar. Ah, my sense of humor seems to be undetectable. The episode itself was great.

[Ema Skye]

The episode was good but I didn't expect it to be so angsty. All the same it was funny.

I think it's because Zuko annoys me, and the rest of the fire nation kids are meh. So I got no fan service because I don't care about any of those characters. :wink

[Dimezanime20]

Oh I see.:P

[Robotkiller]

It's not that I chose Halo over avatar...I was just so enthralled that I forgot about it.


In anycase I managed to watch it a few hours ago. Good episode overall, liked the explanation and character development on the part of the bad guys (I'm not even sure I can call them that anymore) and the fanservice was adorable enough I suppose.

Oh, and one more thing

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/rparkinson/1192397101926.jpg

Combustion man. FUCK YEAH!

[NU-KazeKage]

where is the new episode online

[Morwain]

Gah what happened in the last few minuted my dvr cut them off!? Please tell me or give a clip if possible...I need to know.

The rest of the episode was funny though Azula Zuko and the gangs victory on the beach was amazingly fun to watch as well as many Azula lines in the episode such as "My own mother thought I was a monster...She was right, of course, but, it still hurt." or something along those lines I don't like Azula but, this episode made her seen less hateable.

[Seto Kaiba]

Ty Lee got some big ass titties....:P

Yeah...first thing I noticed about her on this episode.

Whoa did you see Ty Lee's body? Yeah she just became my favorite female character (she was up there already with Toph) and I wouldn't mind her being Sokka's love interest.

Ty Lee was just hot, plain and simple. Azula looked hot too, especially with her hair down, Mai was...well, let's just say Azula and Ty Lee totally overshadowed her.

I had always thought, or at least hoped that Ty Lee will be among the first to have a change of heart and become an ally of the Gaang. She seems genuinely good, just on the wrong side.

Also, yeah, I wouldn't mind Ty Lee ending up with Sokka at all. They do seem to be mutually attracted to each other. Though, the issue of Suki may be a snag. Which brings up a question, is Suki dead or not? Does Sokka know? If so, has he come to terms with it? He doesn't seem to think much about her for someone he claims to be involved with.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Ty Lee is the hottest out of the three. Azula is hot to I guess, but she has that evil look to her.

[Dimezanime20]

Also, what's wrong in showing that the villains have their own stories too? Like do people expect villains to just be there to be defeated without no dreams or determination (or past)? I mean in Avatar Zuko and co. are humans too just like Aang and co.

[Apollo_alice]

That Dr. Evil-Zuko picture almost made me spit my soda out onto my keyboard!

Also, what's wrong in showing that the villains have their own stories too? Like do people expect villains to just be there to be defeated without no dreams or determination (or past)? I mean in Avatar Zuko and co. are humans too just like Aang and co.

Yeah, but I don't think they handled it well in this episode. The part at the end where they all kinda opened up was good, but Azula wasn't handled well this episode imo. It just didn't seem like her at all. At least with the other three it did seem like them.

[Seto Kaiba]

It's just weird seeing Azula like that...you know? I had always saw her as this constantly conniving power-hungry sociopath. Not someone who thinks about boys...it seemed so OOC for her.

[Pimp of Pimps]

This episode didn't excite me, but it wasn't bad. It's just that I'm not really into these type of mushy things. My main problem with the episode was Azula.

also how the hell does eye man work? Is it some kind of firebending or is he gifteeeeeed?

[kewlmyc]

It's just weird seeing Azula like that...you know? I had always saw her as this constantly conniving power-hungry sociopath. Not someone who thinks about boys...it seemed so OOC for her.

Everyone gets lonely.:oh

[Seto Kaiba]

Everyone gets lonely.:oh

Ok...it's that up until now, Azula has just been portrayed as some driven sociopath, not someone whom I would see as particularly emotional. She never showed any indication of loneliness, desire for the opposite gender or desire for social interaction up until now.

Do you mean lonely? Or do you mean lonely?

[Dimezanime20]

It's just weird seeing Azula like that...you know? I had always saw her as this constantly conniving power-hungry sociopath. Not someone who thinks about boys...it seemed so OOC for her.

She's a girl. A teenage girl. Not only that but it seems her surrounding "friends" all had partners. Like she said, she was jealous. She's human. Something like that is beneath her, reasons why she whispered. The scene after she kissed that boy still proves that her power-hungry characteristic still exist (even during the volleyball game), just in a comedy sense. She's not some crazy bitter old lady. Sooner or later she's going to want to find someone anyhow if she plans on her dominance leading on to the next generation. Also, the reason why it's so different for you guys is that the other episodes were introductions of the Fire nation co. and how they mix in with the storyline. There wasn't much time to go into details about the past of each as they did with this episode. With most loose ends tied up due to Book 2, I'm guessing the creators found this season to be the right time. It's not that Azula doesn't really have such emotions, just that we never got the chance to know her deeply. Her character before and still to today is a front for intimidation and respect (and power). Everyone has a side that others don't know (like how half of NF are pedophiles).

Thank Koh-sama for DVR

I liked this ep a lot. Time spent on the antagonist to show their own problems and reasons for what they do and are was a great punch. Azula still ominous in her own little confession, showed to us this entire ep that she's still human. A teenage girl in fact, and does go through the stuff normal people do.

Even though brief Sokka bits, the entire Beach interaction made up for in comedy-wise.

Ty Lee's cleavage had me gawking all night. But I'm still very impressed with hair-down Azula; gotta love that conflicting "WE CAN RULE AND DOMINATE ANYTHING IN OUR PATH" nature with the Ty Lee advice. And the Zuko fangirls.

Did anyone notice that music-less portion to the Combustion Man fight scene? That was some depth sh*t right there! Even his bird hauls ass!

that assasing guy look awesome and his hawk own too

[Nizuma Eiji]

Hmm i know that DR Movie is considered the bad studio when it comes to Avatar but i thought the animation was excellent in this episode. Especially when the Gaang encountered Combustion Man, i loved that very brief fight. IMO the whole episodes animation was great. I dont really see why people complain about DR Movie.

There's more than one studio doing Avatar? Wow, I didn't know that. And if they're the worst, then that's just crazy!

[Nizuma Eiji]

Yeah some you can tell the difference once you learn theres more than 1 studio doing Avatar. 1 is JM Animation & the other is DR MOVIE(who also involved with BLEACH). On DistantHorizon(an Avatar forum) most people consider DR MOVIE the bad studio. So far in Book 3 DR MOVIE has animated: The Awakening, The Painted Lady, & The Beach. JM Animation did The Headband, & Sokka's Master.

I always thought the animation in Avatar was consistently good. If they consider that bad animation, then I hate to see what they think of Shippuden...

[Superstarseven]

Actually for this season DR Movie has been replaced by a new studio called MOI Animation.
So now it's between them and JM Animation doing the episodes.
It's not necessarily that DR Movie animated them badly but rather the complaints were directed towards the character designs. If you notice the characters look different from one episode to the next.
According to their wiki page, Dr Movie have worked on
Bleach (as mentioned previously)
Shippuuden (for those looking for a direct link between Naruto and Avatar, here it is)
Death Note
Ghost In The Shell
Hellsing
Blood+ among others.

Moi Animation have worked on
Teen Titans
Justice League Unlimited
Sonic X
The Batman among others.

Well thats a damn shame. I mean sure the character designs were different, but they still looked damn good. I mean it was noticeable but i didnt give a damn. I enjoyed their character designs.

I knew his ears were always a little funky...but damn, wth. I blame da ears!

[Dimezanime20]

I never really noticed it. From season 1 to season 3 it always seemed the same to me (the animation).

[Tuxx]

Nah, can definitely tell... Season 1 were a bit more...fluidly in animation and character design.

Season 3 now seems different. I don't know how to really describe it...a bit rough maybe?

[Pimp of Pimps]

And some people believe he got buff in one day. :lmao

He doesn't have black people's hair anymore. :huh

Maybe Aang can bend his hair.

[Pimp of Pimps]

As soon as I get a good enough stock (not sceenshots) I'm gonna get an Iroh sig.

Also, how long has it been since the season finale? Katara said Aang's been out for a few weeks so I'm assuming a little over a month?

[Noah]

[Pimp of Pimps]

Wait wait. You mean I'm supposed to believe that he hasn't been on that routine since he first got locked up?

Obviously he started trainging shorty after he got locked up. But some people think he only trained for the day of Sokkas training and suddenly got buff.

Some people also think a person can't get buff so fast (by that I mean a few weeks), which is more understandable even though they're wrong.

As soon as I get a good enough stock (not sceenshots) I'm gonna get an Iroh sig.

Oh noes! Aang, what have they done to you?! :cry

I never really noticed it. From season 1 to season 3 it always seemed the same to me (the animation).
I thought so as well. Then again, I don't go over animiation with a fine-tooth comb like most of the NF users... who can't even draw
Some people are saying it's impossible for Iroh to get buff so fast. They're wrong.

And some people believe he got buff in one day. :lmao
They are called "morons" :nod
He doesn't have black people's hair anymore. :huh
The fuck? :pek
Wait wait. You mean I'm supposed to believe that he hasn't been on that routine since he first got locked up?
http://www.white-angelz.de/forum/images/smilies/rofl.gif

Obviously he started trainging shorty after he got locked up. But some people think he only trained for the day of Sokkas training and suddenly got buff.

Some people also think a person can't get buff so fast (by that I mean a few weeks), which is more understandable even though they're wrong.
It's possible depending on the frequency and intensity of the physical training sessions and caloric intake. Around the 10 week of training is were most people begin to really notice a change in appearance. I've been a certified personal trainer since 2003 by the way.

Exactly. Actually, if you train hard enough and eat good then you'll see changes in the first few weeks. Lazy guys can be whipped into good shape in a few weeks in the army, because they make a habit of it everyday.

Iroh is obviously training hard and he's getting back what he once had. It's not like he's a 20 stickboy who's trying to become bruce lee.

Yeah, you can become physically fit in a few weeks (strength, stamina/ endurance), but you won't be buff. Also, I know what it takes to "whip lazy guys into shape", I served in the Marine Corps for 8 years. :nod

It's a lot easier for a "stickboy" to look buff, the initial shock of the body adjusting to training look better than the results of a fat guy doing the same amount of training. Bruce Lee wasn't a very big guy either by the way. In Iroh's case, he already had a muscular foundation. He just needed to lower his bodyfat percentage.

I would think doing intense training with bread and rice wouldn't give you the results that Iroh's achieved, especially since he's already pretty far up there in age, but meh :LOS

I was just using Bruce Lee as an example. It just comes out of you mouth when talking about anything related to fighting for some reason. Wasn't he actually pretty light for such a strong uy?

And yeah, Iroh already had muscle. He's just readgusting to his old life (that of a general) in a sense.

also a question. since muscle weighs more than fat and a lot of Iroh's exes fat is not there anymore, wouldn't he weigh more than he used to?

[RacheT]

I guess I missed your post :P You do have a point, though. Iroh must be pushing 60 though, so it's still amazing he could get to such a low body fat percentile at his age in a short amount of time (probably 6 weeks if I had to guess)

[Pimp of Pimps]

Well, aside from the fact that it's a TV show I think people that old shouldn't have any real problem getting back into shape as long as they have the time and put in the effort. Not counting injuries and whatnot. I could be wrong though.

[LIL_M0]

Yeah, it won't get you buff buff, but you will get into shape if you already aren't.

Yeah, Bruce Lee was "light in the ass" lmao but he was a scrapper and cut like a tree trunk.

Yeah, he could possibly weigh 5 to 8 pounds more (guess-timated).
*tangent: I hate training women, because they think that they're "getting fat" when I tell them that they have gained weight. Sometimes they end up quitting. Whatever dude, it's your money.

They have this thing called "The Masters" bodybuilding competition. It's for guys 45 and up. I was helping one of my fraternity brothers get in shape for it. Granted, he's a retired US Marine, he's pretty old. I think 52 (53?).

Bottom line: Most people are just plain lazy.

Well, metabolic speed would greatly be nerfed at that age. I'm not saying it's impossible, just saying it's pretty amazing he was able to shed it all within 6 weeks. :LOS

I'm not talking so much as muscle depth, just more of the body fat.

I forgot to add that he had a season 1/2 Iroh belly. :awesome

[Pimp of Pimps]

Exactly. :iria

Also, this may be off-topic, but any tips on gaining muscle mass? I'm 6 foot and weigh like 130 lbs (underweight i'm sure). I consider myself in shape but I need more muscle mass. The thing is, I've got no real access to weight or gym, at least not now. so should I just do thing like push ups, door pull ups, lifting random things etc?

:pek

Yeah, but 6 weeks is a lot of time. Most people are lazy, don't care or don't have the time. Iroh is in a jail cell 24/7 and it looks like he spends all his time training/sleeping. The only problem I see is the nutrition.

[RacheT]

:lmao okay. Again, I'm not surprised he could get back into shape (Iroh), I just thought it was surprising the amount of time it took him, especially on a deprived diet.

[Pimp of Pimps]

What the hell is that white paste they feed him anyway?

I think Iroh has stored nutrients in his belly for such an occasion. :LOS

Do you have access to 10 bucks a week? Got to the store and get some cans of tuna. They only run about 25 cents a can. The key to weight gain is protein.

Proteins give you muscles
Muscles give you women
Women give you secks...
Secks gives them proteins. :lmao

Also, I don't know your monetary situation, but I got the Bowflex dial-up dumbells and a cheap-o adjustable weight bench. You don't really need a gym If you have the "know how". If you want to know more just pm. I don't want to totally derail the thread.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Thank M0. :polygon

Also, in an attempt to get on-topic. anyone know what the hell the eye guy is? His explosions could be a form of firebending, but I don't know.

[LIL_M0]

I don't know. I call him "Tri-clops", wouldn't it be a trip if he was really Kuzon?

[Pimp of Pimps]

Aangs Fire Nation friend from a hundred years ago. You know, the name he used in school? Kuzon. :awesome

Combustion Man FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I must be the only dude here who think Mai is hot when she told Azula to STFU. I'm so lonely, like Ty Lee but Mai I like better for overall realness.

Zuko so needs to get some Sokka lessons on macking girls.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Mai isn't hot. :D:

I guess she's pretty, as in not ugly but that's about it. It's her attitude that makes her not hot really.

Azula is one of those super evil hot chicks. Like you'd hit it but you're scared she'll rip your penis off for the fun of it.

Ty Lee is the only one I'd actually bang.

Managed to catch up on some eps I missed.


Does that prison guard get paid extra to talk smack to Iroh? Everytime he walks in: "Blah blah, useless whore!". It made me feel sorry for Iroh until I saw the old man was just acting.

I can't wait for Iroh to break out and crush that guard's skull :LOS

[RacheT]

Oh. :LOS

I doubt it since he doesn't look a hundred, but who knows.

The guy seems to have had some alterations to his body, so I suppose it's possible he's stopped aging. One way or another I'm sure his friend will play a part in the story though, or else he wouldn't have been mentioned.

"Eye-guy" is probably using firebending. I can't really think of any other way he would be able to burn a hole through a piece of paper if it was anything else. It's different from the usual types of firebending we've seen though. His attacks are a lot more explosive :P Bending seems to be used for many different types of uses though, so being able to create long-ranged explosives from firebending isn't that out of the ordinary. The only thing that makes it strange is that he's somehow able to shoot it out of his forehead. :sag

[Pimp of Pimps]

I always imagined Iroh would bust out of his cage, and he'd be in shadow and you'd see his eyes kinda glow and he'll be like "Tell my brother I'm coming, to take what's rightfully mine" :iroh

I think the guard might have served under Iroh while he was a general. He didn't like him but couldn't talk smack because he would have been disciplined, but since Iro is branded a traitor and is imprisoned he gets to say what he couldn't way back when.

[Pimp of Pimps]

@ RacheT: Makes sense.

From how the guard was talking to him, I think he may have sort of admired him. He obviously thinks Iroh was a great man before.

That's cause you're a respectable guy. Also, remember the prison guard pretty much thinks Iroh has lost it. He has no idea Iroh is training himself and is probably better than ever.

I don't think he ever admired Iroh, just thought he was a waste. He use to be one of the strongest (loyal) firebenders, and threw it all away. He'll probably be used for a plot device later on though, so they're making him hate us intensely so we all laugh when Iroh curbstomps him. :iria

[Pimp of Pimps]

Maybe admired is the wrong word, but I don't think he ever hated Iroh. Judging from what he said, he used to think Iroh as a great man. Now h's just disgusted that such a great man has sunken so low.

[MightGai]

Whats wrong with Mai's attitude, it's like Zuko's.

A negative plus a negative equals a positive. LOL.

These two posts have me thinking... What if he actually did admire him turns out to be Iroh's sidekick (for lack of a better term). Like if he peeps in the cell and see him training and is a all like "The dragon of the West has returned?!" :wtf
