Nickelodean's "Avatar: The Last Airbender" Discusion

[C_Akutabi]

The disturbing part is if this wasn't a kids show I could actually see a freaky one sided Azula/Zuko romance being canon.

Well this episode certainly added to the Zukaang ship :hehee

[Noah]

If it was done in Japan it mite have been :sag

Well the moon was power source. Like the sun for FBers. But that still doesn't answer the animal guardian question.

Turtleducks. There can be no other.

[Kage]

Well this episode certainly added to the Zukaang ship :hehee

lawl. so true. they have chemistry, the sparks fly :zaru


i really liked this weeks episode. one of the best IMO.

Now it all makes sense.:zaru

It's more interesting than Kataang ever was.:pek

Glad I checked Wiki before I decided to rewatch a whole episode. :hehee

So it's one of two things now: Them circling fishies, or nothing and the water benders are too cool for school and will rape everyone.

[Snow]

So it's one of two things now: Them circling fishies, or nothing and the water benders are too cool for school and will rape everyone.

I guess. They got the idea from the Moon, then went about it themselves.

It kind of makes sense that Iroh was able to learn basic waterbending techniques without being a waterbender now.

[Trias]

Well, Moon is the answer, they don't need any animal guardian. I mean, without moles, Earthbenders wouldn't get the idea from somewhere, nor would firebenders would learn anything directly from watching the sun, I guess. But moon itself can "bend" the water, thus studying moon is enough to understand basics of the water, without having a need to watch an animal guardian or anything.

[UltimateDeadpool]

I've seen hentai... and I don't find it disturbing at all. :hehee

I think we all understood that; just that Sunu is trying to make things more complicated than they are.:oh But then again, I could be totally wrong and in the next episode there are some water bending animals that are another source for learning.

[Sunuvmann]

Turtleducks. There can be no other.
I was thinking the Penguin Otters. :hehee

Like a giant Empoleon Penguin Otter :awesome

Anyone who even starts with Zuko Aang shit should die. Its enough all the Sasuke x Naruto crap, carry it here and there shall be no forgiving. Both like chicks. That is completely cannon. Hell each kissed chicks and enjoyed it. So honestly, give the yaoi fantasies a rest.

Well remember, every avatar has an animal guardian.

Rokou had the dragon. Aang has the sky bison. I do not think it a coincidence that their animal guardian is confirmed as the first to bend that element. It is logical then that Earth would be the Badgermoles. It is likewise logical then that the water avatars had themselves some water animals upon which they traveled and could probably water bend.

All of the Air Nomads were given Bison as children, remember? So, the fact that Aang has one isn't an Avatar privilege, but an Air Nomad one.

As for Rokou's dragon...if there were little enough dragons existing at the time that the few people that could manage to conquer one drove them to extinction, I doubt they were handed out as carelessly as the Sky Bison were. The only two Firebenders we saw with a pet dragon just happened to be the Avatar and the Firelord, so I doubt it's commodity handed out to any kid that showed firebending ability.

If Rokou decreed the dragon hunting while Aang was frozen then we're left to assume that the people in that century were to only one's to tame and ride dragons, cause it sure as hell isn't happening now.

The fact that they both had it was probably something that the highest of fire benders were able to obtain. Kinda like a steed that if you show skill, they will respect you and be your steed. I'm thinking similar to hippogriffs. It probably wasn't the same every country and each their own traditions.

The avatar temples are probably aware of the relationships between the benders and the animals who share those talents and have sought out relationships with them. Considering how wrestling heavy the Earth kingdom is, I would bet that the avatar calls upon a Badgermole to challenge them and they then have to wrestle or some other fight like that for the animal to respect them :sag

Dragons are creatures of honor and pride, humility with an aura of strength is probably what one must show for one to accept you as a guardian.

Skybison like the air nomads who are peaceful value friendship and kindness.

[tari101190]

Well remember, every avatar has an animal guardian.no, this was never stated. i don't see how this idea came to you anyway seeing as we really only know 2 avatars.

Rokou had the dragon. Aang has the sky bison. I do not think it a coincidence that their animal guardian is confirmed as the first to bend that element. It is logical then that Earth would be the Badgermoles.
aang has a sky bison cos all air nomads were friends with them. as children they were playing with them, cos they were 'assigned' one each.

and roku just has a dragon cos its his pet. even sozen had a dragon.

and waterbenders never learn't it from an animal.

It is likewise logical then that the water avatars had themselves some water animals upon which they traveled and could probably water bend.waterbenderes learn't water bending from the moon. that is all that was stated. nothing about animals.

I'm thinking similar to hippogriffs. It probably wasn't the same every country and each their own traditions.no...dragons were just like any other animal basically. fire benders hunted them and captured them and stuff if powerful enough yeah. nothin to do with being the avatar.

The avatar temples are probably aware of the relationships between the benders and the animals who share those talents and have sought out relationships with them. there is no relationship between the avatar and any animal. stop thinking that. in fact the avatar isn't a bender of 1 element, they can use all 4 elements. they are as connected to all 4 elements, not just 1, so why should they have an animal representing just 1 element?

[Sunuvmann]

no, this was never stated. i don't see how this idea came to you anyway seeing as we really only know 2 avatars.

Well you'd think there would be something which lets them go around the world :oh

Unless you were born as a water bender, there is no way you could get to all the countries to learn their bending.

[Raiden]

I actually saw the episode. Katarra has still got an attitude with Zuko, but I don't blame her considerng how much pain the Fire Nation has put her through. Sokka hasn't isn't very pleasant towards him either but he seems to be slowly letting Zuko in.

This episode marked an important note for Fire Bending. I always wondered why it was never emphasized that fire a symbolism of creation instead of just destruction, and fortunately, that was proven here. It also good to see Aang and Zuko bond together after such a long rivalry and relationship of hate.

[Sunuvmann]

Sokka poking Zuko to make him mad was one of my favorite parts. Rewatching it now :hehee

[The Drunken Monkey]

Sokka is too corny in episode 13. The rest of the episode was amazing though.

[Snow]

Boats!

As far as I know, the Air temples were the only relatively secret kingdoms and were high in altitude. I'd imagine there were a few Monks that broke away at one time or another, and I'd imagine they'd let an Avatar into their kingdom if need be.

It was never emphasized because Iroh was the only character we saw utilize this form of firebending, and he lied about it to protect the dragons.

The fact that a Nickelodeon show actually makes me laugh intentionally never ceases to amaze me.

[Beau Logan]

I need more Zuko and Toph interaction. It's too amusing for it not to be there.

[Hio]

Sokka always makes me laugh:laugh he's bad ass:zaru

[FreddyFalcon]

Lol. The end of the dragon dance looks like DBZ fusion.

[Hangatýr]

SSJ Aang.

In any case, good ep. Katara got very few lines, which is always good in my book.

[Sunuvmann]

Lol. The end of the dragon dance looks like DBZ fusion.
My first thought :awesome

That's the only use of Zukaang which I would agree with.

I think it was intentional what with the whole episode being about Dragons.

[Beau Logan]

Lol. The end of the dragon dance looks like DBZ fusion.
Considering they're inspired by things like Cowbot Bebop, I wouldn't be suprised if they had a thinly veild homage to DBZ.

WONDER IF THEY'LL DO ONE FOR N@RUT0!1on!1 :LOS

[Hangatýr]

Hope not. Mostly because Naruto = shit. :oh

[Robotkiller]

Katara is starting to grate on my nerves. I can't stand a condescending character.

[Raiden]

Katara is starting to grate on my nerves. I can't stand a condescending character.

Ever since Zuko came along she began to act like that. I used to think of Katara as always the caring and loving one even though if angry, she could get pretty nasty. The Katara that I see now shows a new side, I suppose the side that beared the pain.

[LIL_M0]

Sokka is too corny in episode 13. The rest of the episode was amazing though.I should kill you... :pek

[plox]

how was sokka corny?


did you guys notice that aang lost another glider

[Graham Aker]

Well he was, I mean Jerk-bending? Huh? That was the complete and utter opposite of funny.

[Gunners]

Well he was, I mean Jerk-bending? Huh? That was the complete and utter opposite of funny.
I think that was the point, he makes a shitty joke which he is highly amused by.
________

I wonder if Katara will do something to Zuko which causes the other members to be disgusted. I can see something like that happening where she comes off looking the fool and villain.

[Sunuvmann]

Katara is starting to grate on my nerves. I can't stand a condescending character.
There needs to be an episode where Zuko, after saving Aang or someway to redeem himself and she continues so he is like SHUT.THE.FUCK.UP. and then rants with her being o___o and he ends it with. MAKE ME A SAMWICH. And she obeys.

Yeah. I noticed with the glider. Well the wheelchair guy could make a new one for him. But they could always use some pnj and say that before he left he was like oh btw, could you fish it out for me.

[ReikaiDemon]

I believe it was stated that it was the Moon. They used to watch the moon pull the waves in and out and mirrored it.



I thought the same thing. It would be cool if Zuko got his own individual color to contest Azula's blue. It's bad ass that Iroh learned from the Sun Warriors as well.
I'd probably say white flames, you know, like a combo of all the colors in white light, plus being the hottest of all temperatures by color.
lawl. so true. they have chemistry, the sparks fly :zaru


i really liked this weeks episode. one of the best IMO.
I thought it was more of a brothers kind of thing, though, technically, Aang is Zuko's grandfather...
Lol. The end of the dragon dance looks like DBZ fusion.
Actually, it's a stance in Shaolin style kung fu, in fact, DBZ probably borrowed it's influence from one of the gate stances I think. Also, given that Firebending itself is based on several sets of Shaolin and Southern Dragon style, it was probably derived without any influence to DBZ

[Naruto_Sama]

Can someone list the episode where zuko betrays katara and aang suposedly almost dies? thanks


and i think zuko is going to save azula.

[LIL_M0]

It's the last episode of season 2, "Crossroads of Destiny". :awesome

[Pimp of Pimps]

Haven't been keeping up with this thread and don't want to risk spoilers, so can someone list/link the episode(s) after Zuko joins the gaang.

[Stallyns808]

Still waiting for epic Zuko & Toph interaction :vegetant

Heh, enough with the spam guys.

So any predictions for next week's episode.

[Muk]

was there a preview released for 314?

[Superstarseven]

It's all up in the air for Ep 314, once the title is revealed then we can really speculate on what's going to happen. The possible titles according to Dongbufeng are:

The Royal Family
The White Lotus
The Boiling Rock
The Escape
The Enlightened
The Dragon of the West
The Necklace
The Bloodbender

[Mider T]

Why don't Sokka and Katara except Zuko:mad

Okay, why don't you just accept Osama bin Laden on your doorstep with the words "I'm changed"?

Comparing Zuko to Osame Bin Laden is stupid.

^Almost as stupid as you mispelling his name and thinking that Sokka and Katara will just forgive him in a snap.

I refuse to believe that the last episode will be titled "The Bloodbender"

[Dimezanime20]

Not stupid, just probably the Firelord instead. To the Water Tribe,the Fire Nation might as well be terrorists.

[Gunners]

^Almost as stupid as you mispelling his name and thinking that Sokka and Katara will just forgive him in a snap.

Not it isn't as stupid and I didn't say they should forgive him in a snap either. Sokka's behaviour is fine, Katara is just being a bitch.

...Ok. So you're going to tell me that from the eyes of the Water Tribe, that from what we've seen from the Fire Nation and what they've done, that they can't be considered as terrorists? Do you understand the word 'terrorist'? Zuko is still apart of the Fire Nation (or at least in Katara's eyes, a fire bender). In Katara's eyes, especially including the hunting, you can't blame her for not trusting him quickly or welcoming him like the others. And in case you forgot, last time she let her guard down on Zuko, she got betrayed. I'm no female, but I think I know enough females that would agree that they wouldn't trust a guy the second time, especially after something like that. But to be more specific, yea, Zuko can be considered as a terrorist to her. And if not a terrorist, most definitely still an enemy in her eyes.

[Piekage]

Although I don't blame Katara for not trusting Zuko, I don't care with her conduct as of late. It's one thing to be untrusting, but it's quite another to be a complete and utter bitch. But I have faith in her character.

[Gunners]

...Ok. So you're going to tell me that from the eyes of the Water Tribe, that from what we've seen from the Fire Nation and what they've done, that they can't be considered as terrorists?
Every single fire nation member? I am going to tell you that that is wrong.

Do you understand the word 'terrorist'? Zuko is still apart of the Fire Nation (or at least in Katara's eyes, a fire bender).
So is a little infant. Granted Zuko's role in connection is greater than an infants. He fucked up and he is trying to right his wrongs.

In Katara's eyes, especially including the hunting, you can't blame her for not trusting him quickly or welcoming him like the others.
Her not trusting him is no problem, her being a bitch is.

[soxs94]

Her not trusting him is no problem, her being a bitch is.


i second this

[Muk]

me too not trusting is one thing, sokka ain't trusting zukko yet

but being an ultra bitch about it is something else

i think zukko had a lot of courage in episode 313 by telling them that his firebending was "gone"

"i lost my stuff"

"hey don't look at me i didn't touch your stuff"

[ReikaiDemon]

I'd say Katara is suffering from literary tropes, I feel like she's a victim of Plot Contived Stupidity (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ContrivedStupidityTropes),which, coincidently, the episodes after the invasion had a lot of Plot Induced Stupidity (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotInducedStupidity),like for example, Toph's powers of being a living lie detector, she could've avoided the whole damn feet burning crap to begin with. I'm guessing these episodes make Katara the carrier of the Idiot Ball (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/IdiotBall) this season.

[UltimateDeadpool]

I refuse to believe that the last episode will be titled "The Bloodbender"

That could be the next episode, "The Royal Family" could be the last one.

P.S. Zuko is not Osama Bin Laden.

[Misha-San]

I think Katara could have least tried not to get anger in the way because Aang really needs someone to teach him Firebending.

[Muk]

i think aang just mastered firebending this episode or at least he now is capable of doing it

[Nexas]

i think aang just mastered firebending this episode or at least he now is capable of doing it

Eh he's still got to learn stuff like the breath of fire, flame lashes, and fire daggers. He's still a ways from mastering the art.

Also after rewatching the episode I noticed that scene where Zuko runs across the wall over the spike pit was very reminiscent of Prince of Persia. He just needs to get a time-altering dagger and start running around without a shirt and hes set :awesome

[Muk]

well didn't aang start using earth bending once he stopped the rock or pushed the rock?

so now even without any more training episodes he can bend fire at least

and he learned the ancient "dancing dragon"

supreme technique of the fire benders

[ReikaiDemon]

You forgot lightning of course. Given Aang's powers, he'll make even more powerful lightning than all of the firebenders. Controlling the air density, he can make huge lightning WITH thunder.

[UltimateDeadpool]

I think Katara could have least tried not to get anger in the way because Aang really needs someone to teach him Firebending.

It's obvious that after their time together trapped in that cave, she feels betrayed since he turned on them when she thought he changed. But I think there's more to it, she seems to be acting towards Zuko the same way she acted towards Jet the second time they ran into him... is it possible that she developed a crush on Zuko while trapped with him?

I wouldn't say a crush, it's more of a kind of kindred bond, she feels the same as Zuko, being a victim of the Fire kingdom. They both lost their mothers, and Zuko himself was disowned, at that time, they both had a common enemy, which is the Fire Lord.

[Noah]

How the hell can anyone bitch about Katara's behavior and attitude being inappropriate. She's a pissed off 14 (or 15...16...whatever) year old girl. No matter what culture she's from, she's going to be a bitch.

He's been the face of the enemy ever since their adventure started, and managed to gain and break her trust in the span of a few minutes before. Her attitude is perfectly acceptable here, and it'll probably only last another episode or two at the most. She'll have stopped bleeding by then.

[Sunuvmann]

I agree with Noah. Teenage girl syndrome, quick to fall in love, long vengeance, no wisdom.

[Nexas]

For those of you complaining about Katara's attitude this episode, have patience. Its obvious her queen-bitch attitude is going to come back and bite her in the ass real soon.

[LIL_M0]

Robotkiller, I wasn't posting spam you dumbass. It was going off topic, sure enough, but it wasn't spam. :facepalm

back on topic:
Those dragons were pretty sweet, but if they have to do that dance everytime they get into a fight, I think they're doomed.

Zuko just needs to do something awesome, which saves Katara other than attacking that other firebender, in order to win her trust.

Need I remind you this is an animu forum. References to such mainstream anime as DBZ, Naruto, Bleach, etc. and other connections, come with the territory and while that is interesting that the technique is shaolin, it is arrogant and intellectual elitism to get mad at others seeing an element of an anime...on and anime forum.

That dancing dragons thing was something. It's just too bad it didn't turn Aang and Zuko into Vegetto. XD

LOLz, I'm lovin' the sense of humor.

[Dimezanime20]

Her not trusting him is no problem, her being a bitch is.

Her being a bitch is a result of that. I'm guessing that's her form of retaliation or defense.

And it is immature, they need to function as a team that sort of behaviour causes further dischord.

Sokka doesn't trust Zuko he is not going about being a prick.

[Superstarseven]

interesting titles

Oh I forgot to say that it's a game, a title or two get removed each day until only the real one remains.

[Dimezanime20]

She'll have stopped bleeding by then.

When do girls first go through that? I forgot. And although it's fiction and a kid's show, my curiosity on off-screen scenarios of something like that seem funny and disturbing. But then again, Katara is now a bloodbender.

[Dimezanime20]

...Because Sokka is a guy maybe? Toph doesn't trust firebenders either, but if she knew Zuko like the rest (especially if she went through what Katara went through), she probably would've been a bitch too. Basically, like Noah mentioned before, it's something that's normal. Not to be sexist or anything, but some girls are a lot more emotional than guys and they tend to be personal with their comments thereafter.

[Raiden]

I hope that Zuko and Azula face off one more time so that Zuko can prove himself to be stronger. It always amazed me at how much he lacked in power compared to Azula especially when she was introduced in book two. Now he can turn the tables on her and have the last laugh. I didn't like the way that she would always play with his mind especially when he should have been considered to be emotionally unstable.

Because she is a girl doesn't change the fact that she is behaving like a bitch and needs a slap for it.

[Dimezanime20]

Because she is a girl doesn't change the fact that she is behaving like a bitch and needs a slap for it.

...Forget it.

[Noah]

Because she is a girl doesn't change the fact that she is behaving like a bitch and needs a slap for it.

Well. You're both wrong and right about this. She is behaving like a bitch, and she surely deserves a good smack about the face (but what woman doesn't, really? :awesome). But on the other hand, the fact that she's female is exactly why she's behaving like that. Guys tend to hold less of a grudge than girls do, plus she's been personally scorned by Zuko.

Dimezanime19:
They can start as early as 10 years old, or as late as 17 (maybe 18). Even though it's a Nick show, the writers have obviously considered what is happening to a girl her age. If haven't made jokes about her being a twat during the writing process, then I'd be surprised.

Also: lol, bloodbending for hilarious/disgusting results.

[The Question]

For those of you complaining about Katara's attitude this episode, have patience. Its obvious her queen-bitch attitude is going to come back and bite her in the ass real soon.

You may be right. I've had a feeling that Katara's going to do something stupid, something she'll regret. She may misinterpret something Zuko does and attack him in some way. Once she realizes he is sincere and reflects on her actions, there may be some character growth (I hope.)

I'm also wondering if and when the others will find out that Zuko is Roku's great grandson? I can just imagine the reaction from Sokka.

Sokka:...So..if you're Roku's great grandson then Aang is your...(insert witty, sarcastic, creative Sokka term.) {Holy crudskulls!}

[Sasori-puppet#02]

I really liked that scene with the two dragons dancing, then Aang and Zuko joining them.

Especially when it showed Aang with the blue dragon in the background, and Zuko with the red.

And when the two dragons blew out all those pretty flames, I would have laughed if Zuko and Aang made out. A good make-out moment! :zaru

[The Question]

The Zuko/Aang slash is going to go up after this episode, isn't it?

[Seto Kaiba]

What's up with US Nick? 312 and 313 have aired already in Canada. Why not here too?

[LIL_M0]

Is there any info on the next episode: a title, preview, screenshots... anyting?

[Sylar]

So my thoughts....

Aang and Zuko really do make a really amusing pair.

Sokka isn't funny when he's trying to annoy someone. He's only funny when he's annoying someone unintentionally. Jerkbending is not funny. Sokka was not funny this ep. Plus I'd like to see him actually USE those sword skills we wasted an episode watching him get.

Katara is a bich. Make your excuses but she is.

Toph steals every scene she's in.

Zuko wallrunning is win.

Zuko needs a dragon.

That is all. :gar

[Stallyns808]

So my thoughts....

Zuko needs a dragon.

That is all. :gar

Agreed :vegetant

[hmm...Minty]

Avatar is good

it shows a lot of character development and stuff but Naruto is better because it has more action!!!

and that is why we all like naruto the action, the cool training sequences, naruto learning more and more in his quest

as you can probably tell i'm only posting this much because i want to get into the triple digits so i don't look like a noob!

i also think avatar is too 'americanized' no offense intended but i feel naruto captures the comic book element a lot better

i hope they make a naruto movie like live-action because it would be cool to see who would be Naruto!

and sakura

and sasuke

and rock lee

yeah that would be awesome

can't wait to see who will be in the avatar live-action as well

cos like naruto it has very unique looking characters

i hope they do his tattoos right

now i wish that they don't make it

but if they do...

i hope it has a huge budget

so that it looks awesome!!

it would be totally cool to see how they would do the massive samurai frog in that awesome fight in Naruto with the fifth hokage

actually i guess i totally like both the shows because they're so different

Awesome 20 already...

i really want someone to read this and then go whoah!

that guys been talking to himself for like ever

oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!1

sweet love naruto

Wow, now THAT's a lot of effort for a flamebait +1. It's sad to think that kid probably wrote that instead of doing his fucking homework.


For 313: I thought this was a pretty good episode. The first act was a little scattered in it's pacing, and I thought there might have been a little too much humor in the show (the joke ending was well constructed and hit, but perplexingly anticlimactic), but the last act was mesmerizing. The scene of Aang and Zuko surrounded by the iridescent fire will go down as one of the iconic moments of the series.

Sokka was vexing, just stupid babbling instead of his normal sarcasm. I actually thought Katara wasn't severe enough towards Zuko, considering how 312 ended. I do, however, love how they are not going overboard with Aang and Zuko's relationship; there's clearly a fraternal bond, but they're letting it slowly emerge. It's the kind of subtlety and development that has been too sparse this season.

Excellent reveals about Iroh's past... just enough to set up an episode where we finally unwrap Iroh's history. Some people are against it, but even with the few shows left, iroh deserves his own episode.:nod



Now we look towards Friday, when YTV and Nick both have episodes scheduled for 8:30. Whether they are both new, both repeats, or a mix, it should be chaos.

Actually, he spammed the thread all night with 20 something posts. The some mod merged them into one instead of deleting them.

Is there still no info on episode 3-14 yet?

Just the list of possible episode titles listed before. If you missed it, here they are:

The Royal Family
The White Lotus
The Boiling Rock
The Escape
The Enlightened
The Dragon of the West
The Necklace
The Bloodbender

Two of these will be eliminated tonight, and one more Wednesday. Then the title will be revealed Friday night. But...

It could possibly air this Friday at 8:30 in Canada. So no matter what, we'll know something definitive this Friday.

I thought this one was very good. I especially loved how they did the Toph part. They didn't do Zuko that well though :( But besides that I thought it a good AMV. An awesome song helped :zaru

[Noah]

Yay for the Zuko one! Boo for Sanctuary! I friggin' hate the english version of that song. It just doesn't flow right with the beat of the song. And I'm usually the one who makes the anti-japan / "lolyayUSA" rants.

I still like that CHANCE! one, despite what you jerks say about the song. It just seems like a song for a "yay let's travel teh world!" song. :awesome

[The Drunken Monkey]

Enough with the AMV's I think everyone has the idea now. >.>

[Stallyns808]

^Yeah, instead we should be talking about why Zuko needs a dragon! :LOS

[ReikaiDemon]

(I'm assuming everyone realized the masters were the same dragons from his flu-induced dream, ya?)
That was different, the blue dragon in his dream was Azula, because azul, or azure means blue. Iroh was red because he's just kickass

[Noah]

That was different, the blue dragon in his dream was Azula, because azul, or azure means blue. Iroh was red because he's just kickass

Well yeah, but they were still the same dragons. It's symbolism, man! Azula's diabolic nature and Iroh's awesome aura! The masters showed him that combining the two would create Diabawesome Rainbow Aura.

It's kinda like if Bumi and Sokka did the fusion dance, but more brightly colored.

Maybe the writers actually made the dream as a prophetic vision. The Blue dragon could also stand for potential, and the red dragon stands for wisdom. Azula has huge potential, as does Zuko, and Iroh has massive wisdom, which Zuko is in the process of developing. Sounds profound and significant to me.

[Sunuvmann]

^One of the reasons why Zuko should get his own dragon. Because both of his great grandfathers each had one and it'll make Zuko more gar! :awesome

I agree. Thats how he should fight Azula. Each riding a dragon :iria

Even though it would take a helluva plot no jutsu to cover it :sag

^One of the reasons why Zuko should get his own dragon. Because both of his great grandfathers each had one and it'll make Zuko more gar! :awesome
Yeah, I actually THOUGHT that Zuko was gonna have a dragon, because I thought that McGuffin (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MacGuffin) in the latest episode was a dragon egg. Then we'll have another pet in the Gaang. Though, maybe through plot devices, Roku somehow lends his dragon to Zuko, and then begins the plot of a mini-arc to find a physical body for said dragon.

[Dimezanime20]

...Just in case:

I wonder if it's gonna start as tiny, and cute, and rapidly grow huge, or just stay small for a long time? :/
I'm betting if it was a dragon egg, and he did somehow keep it after the sun warriors caught them, then it'll probably hatch pretty early, and grow huge, so Zuko can have a mount as well. Imagine that, Zuko on a kickass dragon flying besides the Gaang on Appa.

[JB the Jedi]

Holy shit ! Zuko's gonna have a dragon? xD

Don't mean to be a menace but on what days do the eps air in Canada again?

[bobcat_29]

i love this show. im not ready for it to end.:(

[Sunuvmann]

Probably be more of a draco ex machina saving him. And it a smaller dragon of like half sized since young.

And then when he rides it he'd feel the dragon and realize that its the golden egg. Probably will be a gold dragon just so its different and so people can make the connection, because if there's one thing about this show, its that they aren't that subtle when hinting on something.

Well after they do their stuff, I don't think he'll stay with the gang. Having helped Aang, his destiny will be to take what is his. And a dragon will be his steed to return a king :iria

[ReikaiDemon]

Bad news: Nick will be airing "The Awakening" this Friday.

[Superstarseven]

Unfortunately what that means is that Pooldude from TV.com and Dongbufeng.net is right and new episodes might resume in late March. Although judging from the numbers that Day Of Black Sun got, not many people caught on the beginning of Season 3 so the interest was there but Nick was so horrible at promoting the show that the third season was low in viewership. Anyway enough with the doubleshot of Spongebob on Fridays, Avatar has been gone for too long.

[Seto Kaiba]

Nick does not know how to handle Avatar...they spend so much time promoting long-since-jumped-the-shark-Spongebob, shitty shows like the Naked Brothers Band, and a multitude of crappy animated series and barely ever put anything out for promoting Avatar.

Well in the UK we are lucky to get reruns.

[Amatsu]

...Because Sokka is a guy maybe? Toph doesn't trust firebenders either, but if she knew Zuko like the rest (especially if she went through what Katara went through), she probably would've been a bitch too. Basically, like Noah mentioned before, it's something that's normal. Not to be sexist or anything, but some girls are a lot more emotional than guys and they tend to be personal with their comments thereafter.

Katara's just mad that Zuko didn't want in her pants the way Aang seems to be every chance he gets. That must have hurt her ego. No wonder she's a bitch now.

There's something I've been trying to figure out, what the heck happened to Haru and the others? Did they just magically disappear when Zuko showed up? I think they went to explore the air temple, but still, you'd think they'd show up every once in a while to check up on the group...

I've seen this said a bit. Obviously this is the writers fault for pointlessly burdening the main characters with such a cumbersome, irrelevant group, but... why do you even care where they are?

[The Question]

It doesn't really matter storywise I suppose, it just seems to be bad writing for them to just disappear. I wonder if Zuko is even aware that they're there.

[Stallyns808]

[•Grimmjow•]

why dont stupid katara and brother accept zuko in!!!??

[Jove]

And they also laughed at Zuko's sheepish admission that it's a dance.

Who knows? Maybe Ozai will kill Aang, Sokka, Toph, Katara, Appa, Momo, Bumi, Zuko, and Iroh instantly and those three will defeat the Fire Lord and the collected Fire Nation armies by themselves, using plucky, unorthdox, underdog tactics. Maybe they'll win a race of some kind, or a breakdancing competition. Now THAT would be a swerve for the ages.

What travesty? :headscrat

The "Breakfast Club" bollocks-homage in the third act.

"The Beach" simply had the characters unambiguously say why they feel the way they do, just like that movie. And not in the context of a real scene, in which those soliloquies are drawn out by a response to action. They're sitting around a fire, lamenting in order like they were in a single file line. A far cry from an episode like "Zuko Alone," which used the works: simply subtle dialogue, flashback, and objective correlative, and accomplished far more than "The Beach" did with it's explicit, nonsense dialogue.

That wasn't the finale.

[Muk]

do we have a narrowed down title choice yet?

[Jove]

do we have a narrowed down title choice yet?

Not yet, but "The Necklace" has been eliminated from the choices. So 314's title is one of the following:

The White Lotus
The Boiling Rock
The Enlightened
The Dragon of the West
The Bloodbender

Either the episode itself will air on Friday on YTV at 8:30 PM, or Dongbufeng.net will reveal it this Friday at 8:35.

[Mider T]

Here's hoping for "The Enlightened"

White Lotus
Dragon of the West

Both of these sound Iroh episodes which would easily win

Bloodbender = Katara drama. Which would blow. But it would mean by the end of the episode she'd have gotten her bitchiness out and we wouldn't have to put up with all of that.

Boiling Rock and Enlightened are really not indicative of anything.

[Stallyns808]

^Hopefully one of those episodes has epic Zuko & Toph interaction.

[Amatsu]

Sokka will yell "GO BOOMERANG!" and kill the fire lord in one hit like he did combustion man. Because Avatar villains are truly that stupid.

[Stallyns808]

^LOL that really was a lame way for CM to die. But it happened, and we can't do jack about it. :sag

I bet it involves Zuko, most possibly, she'll do some stupid crap while holding the idiot ball, such as bloodbending Zuko, and messing up some convoluted plan to beat the Fire Lord. Perhaps it may even end in Zuko's death.
Though, another possible outcome is Katara bloodbending the Fire Lord, which would be a really, really crappy cop out.
Branching off that last thought, I really hope that won't turn out the same way as Shikamaru and Tayuya's battle.
Is it just me, or does this whole comet thing feel like Final Fantasy VII?
Oh, plus I hope sharp pointy objects are less useless <.< And that Hawkie comes back...And a whole lot of more bullshit I haven't remembered yet.

[The Question]

Hawkie needs to come back and Zuko needs a dragon.

I'm still laughing at:

Zuko: I lost my stuff!
Toph: Don't look at me, I didn't touch your stuff!

Typical little sister response.

On a more serious note though, after Aang and Zuko coming back with proof that Zuko's firebending wasn't working because 'he switched sides', and now found the true source, a source without rage, that should theoretically show Katara that there's at least some truth to what Zuko's been saying.

But it probably won't.

[Sunuvmann]

One thing I wonder is why a comet would increase fire's power when comets are made of ice and rock, space rocks being similar to the moon and ice being water, it should help water benders more than fire benders.

Lol magic=/= science

To children, a comet looks like a giant fire ball.

Because Sousen's Comet is actually a dragon's egg... :LOS

I guess it's MAAAAAAGIC!
Maybe it's more of a psychological kind of thing, we could assume that firebenders know nothing about comets, but the idea of it being a flaming ball of death doom. It is proven that Firebending is influenced by mindset, ala Zuko, and that FireBending is the only martial art that doesn't really need outside material to manipulate, so I guess the fire is a mental manifestation of the firebender, in addition to manipulating outside sources of fire.
Or it could be something stupid, like, I dunno, air friction or magnetism or changes in air pressure or something.

[Sunuvmann]

Hey guys, I was just thinking that the coolest thing was if someone could firebend a mini-sun and that would in turn increase your firebending power.

Furthermore, if one was to release it while controlling the direction it could create a powerful attack.

It would look something like this :LOS

http://youtube.com/watch?v=x2K__U059XQ

I'm just saying it's plausible :sag

[Stallyns808]

^Something like DBZ where Vegeta created artificial moonlight so he could transform into that big fucking gorilla? You talking about something like that?

[Sunuvmann]

To an extent yes.

But then because you get bonus fire bending power you can control it and use the mini sun to make a Kamehameha beam :awesome

[Noah]

To an extent yes.

But Zuko's already mastered the Shinkuu Hadouken. :awesome

Sounds like that moon ball in DBZ.
Your Dan Tien is regarded as a sun in a person's body.
A Dan Tien is where the body's chi pumps in and out of. It can sink and rise too.
I don't think making a mini-sun would be a good idea, sounds like it would expend a hell of lot of chi, any supposed power would be a result of the chi radiating off the mini-sun, and back into the body where it comes from. Though, a good idea is that if there was a party of firebenders, and they have a hugeass bruiser with poor chi, the rest can make mini-suns like batteries.

[Perfect Moron]

That wasn't the finale.

It was, at least for a while.

Was anyone expecting some impotence analogies when Zuko couldn't firebend?

Buddy, when men lose ANYTHING they pride of, it's always an analogue to impotence, and the position of emasculation.

[Stallyns808]

Hmmm.... can't think of a thing to reply to above so... here's my top 5 list of what needs to happen in the next few episodes. :del

1. Katara getting bitch slapped a couple times
2. Zuko gets a dragon or two
3. Zuko & Toph interaction (Sibling relationship)
4. Zuko & Toph solo the fire nation
5. Zuko & Toph then proceeds to solo the entire Avatarverse and the show changed its name to 'Zuko & Toph: The Badass Benders' :awesome

Well said. :amuse

One question, though. In this scenario, is the Spirit World included in the Aangaverse? Everyone else they could take out easily, but Roku's trouble. I say he becomes their wise, tested mentor.:nod

[Stallyns808]

^The Spirit World is included, and I doubt Roku would hurt his great grandson. :LOS

6. Iroh PWNAGE.

Fixed.:thumbs

[masterriku]

one more day best not get your hopes up for 14 in canada (god bless them)

my prediction is nick will try be corny and have aang face the firelord near summers end:twitch

How is that corny?

[Sylar]

Its actually pretty nice timing if they can pull that off.....

[Stallyns808]

Imma be P.O.'d if they actually pulled that shit off. I don't want to wait over half a freaking year for the show to end. It's already been delayed many times.

Fixed.:thumbs

LOL, I'll put that as number 2, after Katara gets bitch slapped. Because Zuko & Toph pwnage would be so much win that the Avatarverse would implode, and then Iroh would never get his chance at pwnage. :awesome

[Jove]

Well, since Nick is airing 301 tomorrow, you could assume they are airing the first 11 episodes in a row. That would mean we'll get 312 either March 21st or March 28th!

Follwing that path, the finale would air in June if they take a few weeks off, as they have in the second halves of Book 1 and 2. That would also mean that the show, starting from the finale of Book 2 to the finale of Book 3, would average barely over one episode per month. :facepalm

Damn Nick, they LOVE their reruns....Hell, that's why they've never aired the last episode of the Angry Beavers, so no one would know the series has ended...

[Muk]

what about the canadians? are they rerunning too?

also do we finally have a title for the next episode?

[Mider T]

I believe it's down to "The White Lotus" or "The Enlightened"

Here's hoping for the latter.

[uchiha1312]

wait have they come out with episodes past the day of black sun

[Dimezanime20]

That wasn't the finale.

Off-topic, technically it was. It was the 'last episode' until they decided to start work on it again.

[Sunuvmann]

wait have they come out with episodes past the day of black sun
Yes, 312 and 313 are out. Came out in Canada.

I still prefer the title of White Lotus because it guarantees Iroh win. Enlightened doesn't tell squat.

[Muk]

yes there have been episode past the black sun!

go check mininova for BT links or search this thread if you want to take the time to do so

i also want it to be white lotus

i want to see iroh again T__T

[Sylar]

Plus we might ge to see that swordmaster who taught Sokka all those skills he hasn't used yet. :LOS

Piando. And I've been wondering about that myself.

Of course, Nick wouldn't show a water tribe bumpkin slicing and dicing people a la School Days.

[niyesuH]

they are so slow with the episodes.. when is 14 coming out?

[Muk]

we are hoping tomorrow with the canadian show :zaru

but nothing is certain i think

:arg Damn Nick! I paid for the fucking season pass off of iTunes. I'm already fucking pissed off that I still have to wait for them to make episodes 312 & 313 available to download when it's already been shown. And now I gotta wait even longer to download episodes 314+?!

FUCK YOU, NICKELODEON! FUCK YOU! :cussing :cussing :cussing

[Muk]

[niyesuH]
