Thanks.Damn mod!

[\zol]

So it looks like that Painted Lady is a waterbender. o.O

[Dimezanime20]

That was an awesome episode! I loved how they went with that episode! Very creative and original, and funny!:) I was hoping for Aang to learn some actual fire bending technique, rather than History.lol

[rockst☆r sin]

I was actually hoping he could remain as a student there.

[Raiden]

I really hope the next episode is good. Hopefully, we will see more screentime with Zuko concerning the crisis he is going through with the avatar being alive. That guy who he hired appears to be pretty powerful...

[delirium]

Yeah, I wanna see Aang add fire bending into his repertoire. Though.. I'm guessing Zuko or Iroh is probably going to teach him how to fire bend.

[rockst☆r sin]

I don't know about Zuko teaching him since he did pay a hitman to go and kill the avatar. What's cool is that Aang and company rescues Iroh, Iroh teaches Aang how to fire bend, then he fights the Hitman fire with fire.

[delirium]

I only say Zuko because there's hints of him joining Team avatar in the future and the benders on the aquad are also his teachers (Katara for Water; Toph for Earth). Iroh being his teacher for fire bending does seem like where the story is going though.

[RacheT]

I think it'll be interesting to see him come to realization that he will have to learn firebending, after promising himself that he would never learn it after burning Katara.

[Jihad]

Rock on new fat kid (chubb rock)!!!!!!

That would fit the pattern, but Zuko still has yet to fully master firebending. Perhaps once he joins Aang's team, he'll be able to master lightning.

On a side note, I'd also like to know more about Aang's friend Kuzon.

[LIL_M0]

Yeah, I bet Kuzon grew up to be a Firelord, or someone important

[Tatl / Tael]

What would be great would be to spinoff Toph to her own series when this is done.

[LIL_M0]

What would be great would be to spinoff Toph to her own series when this is done.
Not really. I mean, I like Toph, but her character isn't interesting enough to carry the weight of a solo title.

[Morwain]

Hmm Toph with her own series interesting concept we'll just have to see how this season goes for her.

[RacheT]

That would fit the pattern, but Zuko still has yet to fully master firebending. Perhaps once he joins Aang's team, he'll be able to master lightning.

On a side note, I'd also like to know more about Aang's friend Kuzon.

Pardon me if this has been asked/answered already, but it seems like bending can be used to manipulate two "powers."

Firebending would allow for fire -> lightning
Earthbending would be earth -> metals
Waterbending water -> ice
Airbending is air ->???

Is there a possibility for Aang to discover a new refined power from airbending?

[Shade]

OMG, you're right. But I can't really think of what else it could be.

Anyways, who thinks Nick will slip up with episode 3 on their site again?

[Sasuke]

Dn I watched this last summer for a while I thought it was pretty good but Nick kept airing re runs instead of new episodes In the end I saw all of S1 i might catch up with it if you guys reccomend it.

Avatar coming to Nick Japan, Saturday December 1st at 6:30pm (http://www.animetopics.com/news.php?news_seq=7819)

[Nizuma Eiji]

Haha i've watched that video too & i never would've put those two videos together lol. I thought it was just some random dancing that i would never see again. But wow from the looks of that cover, Aang will be shaving his head & gettin back to action soon.

[Raiden]

As interesting as it might be, I just don't see Zuko being Aang's teacher. Why? Aang's entinction depends on Zuko's future. If Aang is revealed alive, Zuko's life will once again be brought down to shabbles. It is in his best interest to make sure Aang is dead for good.

[Superstarseven]

Yeah Avatar coming to Japan is pretty cool news. I really wanna hear that dub!

[Shade]

You're going on the notion that Zuko's interests are forever going to coincide with the fire nation's though. There's been many hints dropped that he's going to move away from that and join team Avatar.

There was a lot of disappointment last season when the writers had him turn his back on all that character development in the season finale. He'd gone through that whole ordeal where he was really sick and basically had to make a choice between pursuing his ambitions of killing the Avatar and gaining his father's respect again or taking Iroh's advice. And it looked like he took Iroh's advice until he came down and helped Azula in that fight as Ba Sing Se.

Linkz or it didn't happen.

[Seto Kaiba]

Avatar in Japanese? I'd like to see that.

[Raiden]

I definitely reccommend it. This season will be better than the first two combined. It has all the elements that make up a great piece.

Him turning on Iroh, even though it was mostly had to do with Azula's mind games, just shows that he would prefer to live in his nation rather than with a world won back by the avatar any day. He had the perfect chance to change and be free and completed the process of developing a positive character but when given pursuasion and a change was reluctant but accepted a place withing the Fire Nation.

And thats why you're banned. :awesome

[Saint Jay]

Truly a great show...maybe not great but still very good.

On the season finally of book 2, I honestly thought Aang was going to go all high and mighty on those Earth soldiers. I was completely blown away when Azula blasted him with a lightning bolt, seizing his powers and temporarily killing him.

Now, I know that this season will be greater than the other two combined.

[Shade]

It's shtarting.

[Hi Im God]

WTF Not on YTV today?!?! Pre-empted by Pokemon, this isnt Naruto....

[Banhammer]

link for new eppie, or it didn't happen

[Nizuma Eiji]

Dude it hasnt even aired for alot of people yet. Just wait & eventually somebody will have a link for the episode. I mean there could be one out there now idk, but its not like each new episode for this season is gonna leak early.

[Vasp]

WTF Not on YTV today?!?! Pre-empted by Pokemon, this isnt Naruto....

Is the new season actually showing on YTV? I really got into this series at the end of last season (by watching on YTV at like 6 in the morning, lol), and well, I'd like to see the new season

[Raiden]

Just saw the episode, fantastic. Anyway, shortly I will post the titles and summaries of the next two episodes.

[kakoishii]

another good episode though, though the whole katara being the painted lady thing was kind of obvious from the getgo, but that guy with multiple personality syndrome sure was entertaining to watch. Another great chibi short as well, I'm sure lot's of Zutaraa fans will get a kick out of it too.

[Raiden]

Spoilers: Names and short summaries of the next two episodes are within the spoiler tag.


44. Sokka's Master
Community Score9.7
Superb
First aired: 10/12/2007 Production Code: 304
Feeling as though he isn't contributing enough to the group, Sokka seeks out an elusive swordsmaster from whom he can learn the ways of the blade.


45. The Beach


Zuko and the girls decide to take a break at the beach, where in the process they come to learn more about each other.

Confirmed from tv.com

[delirium]

The episode was kinda so so to me. I think I actually liked the short better. xD

I'm really interested in the next episode though. Sokka really needs a boost in the fighting department with every around him being master benders and all.

[Senzairu]

The short was awesome and the episode was pretty good too.:nod

Does anyone know where I can find episode 2 of book 3? I looked on youtube but couldn't find it.:(

[C_Akutabi]

Found the episode rather boring but the old man was pretty entertaining at times.

Azula + beach ep. = :drool

[Raiden]

Azula + beach ep. = :drool


A few pages back, someone posted a pic of Azula at the beach actually from the episode. I'll try to find it.

[Pimp of Pimps]

I'm really excited about Sokka learning how to use a sword.

It seems he'll be having flight or fight training. Means he either learn it or he dies.

[Raiden]

Ha, I found it!

WARNING, MAJOR MAJOR SPOILER OF AZULAS BEACH GEAR IN EPISODE TWO WEEKS FROM NOW!!!!!! YOU WERE WARNED....

lmao, I'm downloading episode three right now cause I was busy last night.

I hope I see another chibi-ish cartoon like in the previous episode. I can't stop laughing at the "WWWWWWWOoooooooo now that theres a swamp throwdown!" lmao cause we make fun of my friends dad and he looks like that guy and before we saw that episode we were imitating his dad having that redneck voice. and its just a big funny coinsidence :P

[\zol]

To me this ep was pretty much so-so.

But next ep should be off the chain! SOKKA + KATANA = GARRKA

OMG, IN THE NEXT EPISODE SOKKA WILL FINALLY DEVELOP AS A WARRIOR! I've been waiting for that for... ages. The last time he "trained" was in The Warriors of Kyoshi episode which was like the... third episode of the first season?

OMG OMG I'M SO EXCITED!

I'm such a shameless Sokka fangirl, even more so when he is in firenation clothes. :drool

*this week's episode was kinda okay too*

For me, the best part of last nights episode was Aang getting misty over Sokka supporting Katara and Toph hitting him for it. Toph is always at her most awesome when she's just being abusive to the others.

The best part for me occurred when the whole team worked together to make Katara look, act, and fight like a supernatural being. The best special effect was the eerie tune played by Sokka.

[Linkdarkside]

love the episode that old man was funny

[Tuxx]

Toph holding onto Aang's arm = overly cute awesome. Toph being blind just makes her "that" much cuter when acting as one.

[Robotkiller]

guys, that was angs glider he was holding onto.... man, not everything is about christianity.,...

I know, but they glider is very reminiscent of the cross that they used to crucify individuals on. With the fire raging around them painting a picture of a hell-like terrain I wouldn't doubt it of the creators tried to slip in some mature symbology.

[Jizz]

Toph and Katara are getting seriously annoying this season, espically Toph.

That dirt dyke needs to get her ass kicked by Azula, because she's hogging way to much spotlight for a secondary character.

That whole clean up the river is so not funny, and she's stealing sokka's lines and character.

I don't get why so many people like her, she's a fucking mary sue, spoiled brat who's ugly, spoiled, and seriously overrated.

Hopefully Aang out Earthbends her and accidently crushes her via boulder, and kills the little earth whore.

And Katara she's annoying and boring, but at least thats expected since like other female heroines in Anime are main characters.

[\zol]

By the end of this season you'll be adding Toph and Katara to the kickass women you lurve. ;)

I sure did wish Aang would have stayed in the FN Academy a little longer. Next ep will probably be epic

damn harsh much? Anyway what I like about Katara and Toph (mostly Toph since she never plays the damsel card) is the fact that they are both strong and can hold their own solo in combat. What's irritating about anime heroines is the fact that regardless of whether or not their strong very, very few of them can hold their own in combat and often end up having to be saved by...surprise, surprise a male hero. So I see it as refreshing that a character like toph is on the show, and she's far from a mary sue.

[Raiden]

guys, that was angs glider he was holding onto.... man, not everything is about christianity.,...


Animators and creators of these shows do things like this sometimes. If you have seen the movie "300", in the end when the main character dies, his arms are outsteched and his legs are together while he is laying flat. Try to get a mental image of what I said into your head. Looks familiar, specifically referring to someone who was crucified?

These two characters have been developed in order to represent quality traits of each element. Toph eximplifies what it means to have and earth element personality. Katara is not a boring character, she's just resistant and independent. That's how most girls are. You can't force them to do something.

[Jizz]

What bothers me about Toph is despite her being blind, she's overpowered and to damn strong, she can bend metal and toss it wround like paper with ease. And she can feel any vibration ground or metal wise, so that gives her a major advatage, she's semi invincble.

While characters like Mai, Ty Lee and Azula are powerful, they have weakness and disadvatages, Toph has none.

Only Aang can beat her.

She's Mary Sue and a Character Stealer, the main fact that she's replacing Sokka as comic relif, an the fact she's repalcing Katara as Fem Fatale and main herione.

I liked her character when she was in book three, and should of stayed their in Ba Sing Se, but now her character is getting to much spot light and needs to be toned down power and character wise, because if she can bend metal, aim it in the air and do that with less effort, how the hell can anyone aside from aang beat her.

Now she's a pain in the ass, a major spot light stealer and reeks of mary sue.

Brat needs to Die.

Anyways, Sokka contiues to be the most GAR character ever and Toph is merely a Sokka wannabe whom she cannot benchmark.

Oh why the fuck did she hit aang, is she that much of a boyish bitch she has to hit Aang for making a statement?

Gay.

[pajamas]

Wow good show :thumbs !

[♠Mr.Nibbles♠]

Agreed.

I'm more anxious for the next chapter though with Sokka learning how to use the sword.

Its not that serious, its just a tv show & besides you act like she chose to be that way. She's like that because some guy wrote a script that has her being that way. Also how is she a spotlight stealer???? What did she do in Crossroads of Destiny, The Chase, or any of the episodes of Book 3 that are so spectacular???

Everyone has their weaknesses including toph. Leave her stranded out in the ocean or drop her off at the North pole and she'll be royally screwed. Ice and water mess with her ability to sense vibrations and thus "see." She literally really would be blind in those circumstances. As far as Toph stealing Sokka's thunder in the comic relief department, that's complete ludicrous. Even Aang has his comic moments and no one ever accuses him of stealing Sokka's place as the funny guy. As for that bullshit about her stealing Katara's place as the female heroine, who said there could only be one? Katara represents the badass bender of water, and Toph's forte is Earth, it's not like they both have an affinity to the same element. I think you just hate Toph for whatever arbitrary reasons you can come up with all of which are pretty much unfounded. It's not like she'll just up and disappear so get over it already. Like it's such a bad thing that there's more than one badass bender in this show, I'd take that over over one guy being a complete powerhouse while the rest of the cast are a bunch of weaklings that rely completely on their "hero" to bail them out of every mess to come their way. If that's the kind of show you're looking for watch DBZ, not avatar.

Don't you understand symbolism. It means it looks like the crucifixion from that angle. It doesn't mean that he is actually being crucified.

Toph has her weaknesses also. She cannot "see" with her unique sense of sight if not on solid ground. Also, she didn't mean harm when she hid Aang, it was a sense of comedy and her personality. She wants him to toughen up. Also, it's not all that serious. When you start thinking in that train of thought, you stop enjoying the series and instead focus on opinionated negative aspects of someone. Such people destroy a series for others who might like the same character. This person won't be able to say something without having twelve others jump down their throat.

[kakoishii]

^ it's not so much the fact that this guy dislikes a certain character, afterall this is a discussion board everyone is free to their own opinions, however it's his reasoning that stinks. He calls Toph invincible which she's not and a mary sue, which makes me think that he has no idea what a mary sue is. He also says she's a spotlight stealer despite the fact that out of the 4 main characters she probably get's the least screen time and thus far in season 3 she's the only one not to get a spotlight episode like the other 3 have. So if you're gonna dislike something give valid reasons for it don't just make stuff up.

[Arcueid]

Gah! I missed this weeks episode yet again! This is the 3rd episode I missed so far. I better start recording it or something. Anyways...I've noticed this is my first post and I'll start off by saying I love Avatar yet I wasn't a fan of it when it first came out.

[Omega id]

The way I see it, Toph is mainly a threat to normal Earth Benders. Fire Benders may or may not give her a problem (especially if they wield Lightning), but she does have a pretty good ability for calculation... it's the only way I can think of explaining how she intercepted those fireballs in mid-air at the begining of this season (though the ships were ON water and apart from each other I believe).

You know what they say about blind/deaf people, their other senses end up getting hightened, maybe thats Toph's case, maybe not, you have to assume it.

Earth Benders are now extinct... well with the acception of Aang.

Speaking of which, something tells me that a really long time ago pretty much ANYONE could bend all 4 elements but the teachings changed or something, I just find it odd how there can only be ONE avatar.

Toph is easily the most lovable character in this show. I love her tomboyish personality and her "I don't give a fuck about your opinion" personality or additude towards other. She may be a bit spoiled but at the same time she is the trippiest and most laid back character on there... a spoiled brat won't walk around bare footed or compliment herself when ever she burps or even stinks for not taking a shower... Toph doesn't even care about how she looks, probably due to the fact that she can't see and has no sense of beauty or anything... Me typing this stuff done about her character makes me sympathize for her character, it must suck to be Toph... but Toph gets by and puts up with it. So quit hatin' and appreciate Toph~!

[Banhammer]

I think Toph is extrelmy well built
She has her own earthbending style, and while she becames far more insightfull and has a great processing rate, her gifts are mostly circumstancial, for example she dosen't bend metal like it was earth, and she needs constant footing, not to mention that if she looses her ability to "see" she turns very scared and nervous.
Remember this last episode? While on the boat, Toph nervously garpples's Sokka's arm .
She's also there to be a counterpart, the courage that backs up sokka's brain, and Katara's kindness.
While one of the girls is kind and polite, and cares for others, al while doing a "motherly" role, , she's there to be butally honest, and more childlike.
Speaking of sokka
O.O'holy shit he's gonna have superior agility and higher ground!!! The Fire Lord is f*@&"!

[Instant Karma]

This week's episode was pretty good. I still suck for missing the 1st one, but whatever. I found Sokka's expressions to be particularly funny as hell in this one. The plan they came up with for taking down the fire nation troops at the village was pretty tight, and i liked seeing Aang do his thing from beneath the bridge. Oh, and that Doc guy, lol. What a weirdo.

[RacheT]

As someone said, a great element about this show is that everyone has their strong points. It's not having one person carrying the weight of his entire party. Of course, in the end Aang is the avatar and probably will dominate everyone else, but he doesn't have to save everyone else as they're all just as strong. It would be nice to see Sokka having some type of advanced weaponry skills however, considering he's lacking in any type of combat specialization, however he does seem to be the strategist of the group.

[The Cryokinetic]

God I love this show. BTW there are still SOME airbenders out there.

[Jizz]

The way I see it, Toph is mainly a threat to normal Earth Benders. Fire Benders may or may not give her a problem (especially if they wield Lightning), but she does have a pretty good ability for calculation... it's the only way I can think of explaining how she intercepted those fireballs in mid-air at the begining of this season (though the ships were ON water and apart from each other I believe).She can see and counter attack any bender on earth or metal. Water or Fire, that proves she's br0ken. Only thing thats stopping her is an Airbender and guess what, he's the only one left

You know what they say about blind/deaf people, their other senses end up getting hightened, maybe thats Toph's case, maybe not, you have to assume it.That gives her almost all of the majority of advatages, and the playing feild is hers, It's like she's her own deus ex machina that has no intention of being stopeed by anybody. No one can beat her, not even Ozai and Azula.

Earth Benders are now extinct... well with the acception of Aang.You mean Air benders.

Speaking of which, something tells me that a really long time ago pretty much ANYONE could bend all 4 elements but the teachings changed or something, I just find it odd how there can only be ONE avatar.Um, What>

Toph is easily the most lovable character in this show.Just like a fat chick can be lovable by farting up chocolette cake.(Sarcasm) I love her tomboyish personality and her "I don't give a fuck about your opinion" personality or additude towards other.Pssh, she's a I'ma a girl power tomboy cliche almost seen in every anime and manga, oh yeah she's tough and doesn't take crap from anyone, neither does Jun, Mai, Azula, Smeelerbee and Katara. And they're more original character than Toph. She may be a bit spoiled but at the same time she is the trippiest and most laid back character on there...Ty Lee and Mai are trippy and laid back, so what, are you saying she's a repertoirce of already established characters that make up the ultimate mary sue which is toph. a spoiled brat won't walk around bare footed or compliment herself when ever she burps or even stinks for not taking a shower...She's like Smellerbee thats what your saying only more lame and overpowered at earth bending. Toph doesn't even care about how she looks, probably due to the fact that she can't see and has no sense of beauty or anything...She must be gay then. She's the richest bitch on the whole show and knows more about class than Katara does, and your telling me she doesn't care about her appperence I guess her getting facials with Katara doesn't matter then. Me typing this stuff done about her character makes me sympathize for her character, it must suck to be Toph... Not really, Daredevil like Toph has it made, their both rich, high class and extemely powerful people figurivly speaking. but Toph gets by and puts up with it. So quit hatin' and appreciate TophIs it so hard to believe I hate Toph? I liked her in Book three but now she's unessasry just like that.Seriously Avatar had a boyish tomoby with the mouth of a sailor and the take charge attitude her name was Jun.

WTF ever happen to her?

[Robotkiller]

AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER in Canada
Avatar was pre-empted on Friday, October 5 at 5pm E/P. This series has a new schedule effective Monday, October 8 and to celebrate we've scheduled an Avatar Marathon of 4 B2B episodes from 7:15pm to 9:30pm E/P featuring the first 4 episodes of season three.

7:15pm - Avatar Jump In Special
7:30pm - episode 1
8pm - episode 2
8:30pm - episode 3 (NEW)
9pm - episode 4 (NEW)

If this is true then Sokka's master and The beach will be on the internet by the morrow:wtf

[The Cryokinetic]

So your the legendary Jizz I've heard about.

[Nizuma Eiji]

Chill out Kakoishii, she's just a fictional character. But why do you keep saying that you liked Toph in Book 3, but now she's unnecessary???? Dont you mean Book 2 Earth??? Because so far in the 3 eps of Fire, she hasnt done not a damn thing, except for the whole they know we stole this ship, quick moment of metal bending to make some soldiers fall into the ocean & shoot rocks at the firenation ship.

[The Drunken Monkey]

There are still air benders except for Aang?

I thought they all died.

[Nizuma Eiji]

^^That's just what people believe, there hasnt been any other airbender shown to be alive in the show. So yea the belief of there being airbenders still living is up in the air.

[Shade]

Yay for 2 new episodes tomorrow!

But are you sure it's PM? Avatar usually comes on in the morning.

[Graham Aker]

There are still air benders except for Aang?

I thought they all died.
The creators themselves said so.

Anyway, change of schedule? Whoop Whoop! Finally seeing Azula with less clothing, I cant wait!!!

[Raiden]

If this is true then Sokka's master and The beach will be on the internet by the morrow:wtf

Two episodes at once, that's big news...

^ it's not so much the fact that this guy dislikes a certain character, afterall this is a discussion board everyone is free to their own opinions, however it's his reasoning that stinks. He calls Toph invincible which she's not and a mary sue, which makes me think that he has no idea what a mary sue is. He also says she's a spotlight stealer despite the fact that out of the 4 main characters she probably get's the least screen time and thus far in season 3 she's the only one not to get a spotlight episode like the other 3 have. So if you're gonna dislike something give valid reasons for it don't just make stuff up.

Trust me, I know this for a fact. However, just to be sure, I question the points made by others to see what reasons they have for making claims as drastic the comment that I originally replied to.

There are still air benders except for Aang?

I thought they all died.

It is only pure speculation but perhaps one day, there will be indeed airbenders in the show.

[Snow]

How many seasons is Avatar on? I'm considering picking up this show. I tried watching like a year ago but Nickelodeon kept airing episodes out of order so I quit.

[Raiden]

Avatar is only one three seasons, this being the last one. And by the looks of things, we are going to finish early on the site. We might get two new episodes tomorrow, on the web that is.

[Mat®icha]

dl-in roght now. cant wait tp watch:spaz

[Robotkiller]

Avatar is only one three seasons, this being the last one. And by the looks of things, we are going to finish early on the site. We might get two new episodes tomorrow, on the web that is.

Actually, there's going to be six seasons.

[Tuxx]

Actually, there's going to be six seasons.

If I'm getting it right...it's six seasons total, but Aang's story ends at season 3. The other 3 are expanded universes to Avatar?

[Shade]

That would be correct.

[Tuxx]

That's cool...I've figured so... dragging it on for that long would eventually degrade the show imo. I mean it would be going nowhere after resolving with the Fire Nation part and/or to even continue the main story after that... Well maybe not entirely. ><

Anywho, I hope they do the characters from the TCG, mostly Malu. I so really want to see her, along with Kinto, and the other two. But mostly just for Malu. :P Her story is quite intriguing, it would be cool to know about her fate, and to what exactly happened to her.

[Superstarseven]

Actually, there's going to be six seasons.

There will not be six seasons of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
How do I know? Creators said so. There are also no concrete plans for a spin-off series. The only thing on the works right now is the Live-action movie.

[Snow]

Avatar is only one three seasons, this being the last one. And by the looks of things, we are going to finish early on the site. We might get two new episodes tomorrow, on the web that is.

Fair enough. Working on Season 1 right now. I don't think I could have followed for 6 seasons of this. :(

[Robotkiller]

The creators haven't specifically stated if the future seasons will involve Aang and company in any way. And yes, the planned three additional seasons ARE concrete. Nick has specifically stated, along with the creators, that they've signed on for three more Avatar seasons.

[\zol]

IMO they cannot end Avatar without at least a time-skip even if it's a fraction of the last ep.

[uncanny_sama]

avatar has become kind of boring

i love the show but nothing is happening it all seems like needless filler to me

the only thing that was exciting was that cyclops dude in the end op episode 2

[Raiden]

Actually, there's going to be six seasons.

A couple of others thought the same thing however, I'll post the page tomorrow where it says that it is confirmed that there are only three seasons....

Really? You ought to get this info to all the fan sites then because there has been no news as to there being 6 seasons of Avatar. So yeah just link up the press release where you got this from and I'll help spread the word. I'll be here waiting.

[Superstarseven]

avatar has become kind of boring

There's only been like maybe one actual filler episode, and that only aired last week. Although the invasion was in the back of Sokka's mind the whole time as you might have noticed. Remember, episode 10 will deal with specifically with the invasion and we're only on the third episode right now. I'm a super-fan so they can do no wrong in my eyes but you gotta hang in there dude. I don't remember seeing anyone saying that the third season would deal with making war plans and creating strategies for several half-hours.
That in itself would be pretty boring.

[Graham Aker]

Thats because you got caught with the Hype, expecting WAY too much is never a good thing.

I'm completely chilled :oh it's the other guy who should chill, stressing over Toph being useless and stealing other people's thunder is just ludacris. As for me saying I liked her better in book 3 than 2, did I say that? If I did I meant she was awesome in book 2, but has yet to show anything prominent in 3.
A couple of others thought the same thing however, I'll post the page tomorrow where it says that it is confirmed that there are only three seasons....
you sure about that? I haven't heard the thing about 3 more seasons, but apparently at comicon they did say something about a 4th season. It was a couple pages back in this thread where someone who was at comicon and sat in at the avatar pannel got that information along with season 3's airdate.

[Superstarseven]

No he's right, there are only three seasons. There are only a few people left on staff, and they're only finishing the episodes coming back from Korea so there are no storyboard artists or writers anymore. And that's pretty much who you need if you're going to start a 4th season. What Bryan said concerning the show at Comic Con was "We're not done with the Avatar world yet". Which really is open-ended and ambiguous that you can't tell what he meant. It could mean anything. But yeah, Avatar: The Last Airbender is over.

[kakoishii]

^ well, by saying they aren't done with, could mean they're doing a spin-off or something like that, but by not saying it's over it may mean they are taking some time off to think of something new. If they don't put something out right away then it makes sense that they don't have any writers or artist or their future payroll, however that doesn't mean that they aren't thinking up something for later. After all like someone posted earlier on this page, they said that after season 3 Aang's story is finished, but they might just think up a different character to follow or maybe fast forward through time and follow a different avatar. Who knows.

[\zol]

So I take it Canada has seen the eps yet? Any torrents?

[Nizuma Eiji]

Ohh i must've confused you with the other guy or something idk. I didnt really go back & check out the guy's name. I just saw yours, & figured you were him :P lol my bad there. But i agree with you there, Toph really isnt getting no shine in Book 3 so far. I mean Sokka is constantly having his funny moments, especially in the Headband, Katara was the main focus pretty much of the painted lady & Aang had the Awakening, & the Headband.

[Raiden]

you sure about that? I haven't heard the thing about 3 more seasons, but apparently at comicon they did say something about a 4th season. It was a couple pages back in this thread where someone who was at comicon and sat in at the avatar pannel got that information along with season 3's airdate.

I'm very sure. As a matter of fact, I'm going to retrieve it right now.

Edit:

I searched twice trhough atleast thirty pages of work however, I just can't find the resource. However, when I get the chance, I wll. That's a promise.

[Superstarseven]

Great man, as soon as you find it I'll send it to the appropriate channels and then the fandom can rejoice.
Anyway, besides that there's some cool swordfighting coming up in this week's episode. Tune in!

[Snow]

Wouldn't it make sense that they have a 4th season planned? The chapters are named after the elements and in the order they're listed on the opening scene which lists "Air" last.

[kamikazekage]

my friends love this show. i never got around to watching it.
i should now

[LIL_M0]

[kakoishii]

Wouldn't it make sense that they have a 4th season planned? The chapters are named after the elements and in the order they're listed on the opening scene which lists "Air" last.

but the chapter titles are more about the element that Aang is learning to master in that season. Considering Aang's already mastered air not to mention the air nomads are pretty much wiped out it would make much sense to have an air book, plus imo the series reached it's climax at the end of last season, for it to keep going too long after that would not be a good thing.

Maybe he'll train up some new air benders and restart the nomads... That could take up a whole season. :awesome

[Nizuma Eiji]

IDK that seems like it would be kinda boring ya know??? I mean a whole season of training airbenders, what would they be training for???? I mean i dont think they'd have anybody to fight.

[Hangatýr]

'tis possible that they'll go with a whole new Avatar. Or one from the past.

[Gaiash]

Maybe a series where Aang encounters another airbender leading Aang on a search to find other suvivers. It could also focus on the aftermath of the war, thats sure to effect someones lives.

[Raiden]

Hey Vash, where are those two new episodes that aired in another country on Monday. We would really like to see them. Waiting one week for just half an hour of an episode is too long of a wait...

[Shade]

They didn't air. It was a hoax.

[Raiden]

....A hoax. Wow, how disappointed. Anyway, we should get a pirated version of the episode this week maybe tomorrow...if we're lucky.

[Shade]

How so?

[Snow]

IDK that seems like it would be kinda boring ya know??? I mean a whole season of training airbenders, what would they be training for???? I mean i dont think they'd have anybody to fight.

I'd imagine Aang wouldn't want his culture to die with him but I doubt he's going to be able to train some orphans in the ways of monks and attack the fire nation at the same time.

but the chapter titles are more about the element that Aang is learning to master in that season. Considering Aang's already mastered air not to mention the air nomads are pretty much wiped out it would make much sense to have an air book, plus imo the series reached it's climax at the end of last season, for it to keep going too long after that would not be a good thing.

I felt that they were linked more to what nation they're spending the most time in that season rather then what Aang was learning.

[RacheT]

An air book would seem kind of unnecessary. The only thing regarding air bending that Aang doesn't already know about would be some type of refined skill he can learn using it; which still I don't think should take an entire season. They're in the Fire book right now, in the city that has been the focus for the main antagonist the entire series. I'm pretty sure it's going to end his story this season.

it might seem that way, but the reason I feel it's more about the element he's learning to master is because in both previous seasons, though mostly the first, Aang didn't really spend much time in the nation of the chapter. In season one he spent 2 episodes in the south and 3 in the north, that's only 5 chapters he was anywhere near the water tribe.
An air book would seem kind of unnecessary.

And one other thing. The creators said they were gonna have Aang visit the eastern air temple which is full of women. Albeit interesting, even that's not enough to comprise a whole other season.

[LIL_M0]

IDK that seems like it would be kinda boring ya know??? I mean a whole season of training airbenders, what would they be training for???? I mean i dont think they'd have anybody to fight.
I know, but 3 more seasons of having no one to fight would be just as boring. Speaking of the talk about Avatar having 3 more seasons: no proof = lies. :nod

[Superstarseven]

\

And one other thing. The creators said they were gonna have Aang visit the eastern air temple which is full of women. Albeit interesting, even that's not enough to comprise a whole other season.

The eastern air temple was visited in Appa's Lost Days and The Guru.
There was a flashback, if you remember, to Aang's first encounter with Appa with various female airbenders/Nuns in the background and Sister Iio was giving out apples to the kid monks to give to the air bisons. The only temple to visit next is the western air temple which is closest to the Fire Nation, and which was also primarily female-inhabited.

[Graham Aker]

Well, after this, we'll have Shyamalan's Live Action to look forward to.

[LIL_M0]

lol I agree. His productions have been nothing above subpar for a while either, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

[The Drunken Monkey]

Wish Aang would hurry up and master Earth Bending, he's sure taking a while to do it.

[Nizuma Eiji]

^^I dont know he seems to have it down pretty good, seeing as how good he was using it in The Drill & Crossroads Of Destiny.

[RacheT]

Yeah, and they don't seem to take interest in showing onscreen training, as their bending seems to improve greatly everytime they engage combat.

[Robotkiller]

[Iria]

oh man thanks Rob

I am excited about the Shyamalan movie, and to be honest about 3 more seasons

I am sure the creators have some winful ideas planned

can't wait for tonight :knk

[Gaiash]

Wish Aang would hurry up and master Earth Bending, he's sure taking a while to do it.
Your right, mastering an element doesn't usually take years to master. Theres no pressure on Aang is there?

[RacheT]

Your right, mastering an element doesn't usually take years to master. Theres no pressure on Aang is there?

Exactly. Toph just learned how to bend metals, and she was pretty much a pro at earthbending even before she met Aang. It's not something you learn overnight. :P

[Nizuma Eiji]

^^Yaw but i guess it's safe to assume that Aang is a master earthbender by now. Because i mean its not like they can show him constantly training, because if they did so the series would drag on for episodes without really getting anywhere.

[LIL_M0]

It's on. :awesome

[Pimp of Pimps]

I want to watch it, but I promised my sister I'd let her watch her faggot movie.

I'll have to D/L it.

[LIL_M0]

Aang looks like Nightmare from Soul Calibur. :awesome

[RacheT]

I'm glad Sokka finally learned some type of combat skills :P

[Pimp of Pimps]

How long do you guys think 'till it'll be available online?

[delirium]

Awesome episode was AWESOME.

"I guess humour doesn't run in the family." Ouch :lmao

[kakoishii]

of course another awesome avatar episode :amuse. I must say though, for me Iroh's deception kind of stole the show. That alone leaves so many questions, like for reason is he pretending to be a bumbling fool of a mute? What ever the reason he's totally ripped now so if they plan on killing his character off they'll have a tough time of it. Who else thought that was cute at that part where Toph pretended not miss sokka? Oh, and also for that one guy who stated last episode that Toph is trying to steal Sokka's place as a funny guy, I'm pretty sure this episode proved you're alone in your delirium, no one does funny like Sokka. I'm a little sad though cause there was no chibi short this week, perhaps last week was the last one?

[dwabn]

next ep looks sick

azula is crazy even w/ volleyball lol.

[LIL_M0]

Iroh trains like a Marine. :nod

[Raiden]

Sombody give a summary of the episode. I only saw the last ten minutes.

[LIL_M0]

I think the real reason Iroh is playing the mute is because his original VA died and the creators are holding off on a new voice actor.

Iroh: Just as planned

[Chatulio]

I can't wait for Iroh to kick that guys ass XD

[Robotkiller]

OMAGAD! That was awesome!:awesome

I like how Sokka didn't just go to "LOLWTFSWORDMASTER" and he still had to rely on his quick wits and strategy in order to put up a good fight.

Also, Toph totally wants to get into Sokka's pantsu.

[Raiden]

I can't wait for Iroh to kick that guys ass XD

Yeah it looks like he lost the jellyroll of a belly that he had. As a matter of fact, he might help in the counterstrike against the Fire Nation and could end up being the new fire lord.

[Lord Snow]

.. oh man, this week's episode was amazing. Just... holy crap, between Iroh being pwnsome, Sokka's training, the minor in-joke with the suggestion of "Lee" as a fake name, and the Order of the White Lotus... marvelous. Book Three is officially back on form, and next week's episode looks like it's going to be all sorts of brilliant from both a comedy and action standpoint.

[Robotkiller]

On a related note, this is the second "Great Master" to recognize Sokka's enormous potential. The Machinist, the world's greatest mechanical mind, gave Sokka similar praise for his keen mind.

I am beginning to see the potential for Sokka to be the man who unifies and leads the entire Avatar World, which as Pathik said was only divided in an illusory manner. Only a man with Sokka's inventiveness, unorthodox mind and charm would be able to bring peace and prevent devastating repercussions from annihilating the defeated Fire Nation.

[helpmenow316]

umm the guy wasnt the world greatest inventor..He was just really good..But your point stans... but it allways been said that sak was the brains...

but yea iron FTMFW

[Ema Skye]

Omg... That episode rocked! I'm happy that Sokka has his own episode, that ep. was mostly about my 2 fav. characters (Sokka and Iroh) and Iroh was so buff :wtf. I give that episode a 10/10 :love.

[Lord Snow]

I think the real reason Iroh is playing the mute is because his original VA died and the creators are holding off on a new voice actor.
They are giving us time to forget what Iroh use to sound like.

I agree with you. I noticed that they made many parallel images between Sokka and Iroh. Also the master mentioned that Sokka should change his name to Lee ( which happens to be Iroh`s son`s name) and a mention of the White Lotus group. Although I`m not sure what the writers are getting at with links between Iroh and Sokka.

[Shade]

Shade wants to download.

[helpmenow316]

No the reason why iroh is doing this is because he is a master of the neutral gin.

[Lord Snow]

Iroh is waiting for his time to make his escape but the question is when will he take his chance.

[Shade]

The Beach looks like an awesome episode.

[RacheT]

It'll be nice to see next episode. Things are going to start picking up, and now that Sokka has achieved some level of combat skill hopefully it will start to be applied into the action sequences :P

[Raiden]

The only thing that bothered me was Sokka's recklessness in telling his master that he was of the Water Tribe. Though the master knew, still that didn't necessarily mean that he was right. Even if Sokka told him just so that he could truly test his abilities, it was an ominous judgement. Suppose the master goes and tells the Fire Lord that the avatar and his friends are alive? Then what? All the groups efforts would have been in vein and things would have gone back to the way they were (Zuko would have been thrown out of the Fire Nation again).

[dwabn]

yeah i think w/ his new skillz maybe sokka might fight ty lee

[Vampire Alucard]

They are giving us time to forget what Iroh use to sound like.

I believe we have already heard Iroh's new Voice Actor. At the end of last week's episode they had the little bonus chibi Avatar cartoon where they were all in class and I believe that Iroh was the teacher of the class.

I thought it was a bit absurd that he'd do that. Ever since the opening of season 3 he's been so anal about his schedule and wanting to fit in, and then goes and jeapordizes the entire mission.

[helpmenow316]

Iroh is waiting for his time to make his escape but the question is when will he take his chance.
yes and what is the neutral jin about?? Waiting till the right time to strike.:nuts

[Nizuma Eiji]

I agree with you. I noticed that they made many parallel images between Sokka and Iroh. Also the master mentioned that Sokka should change his name to Lee ( which happens to be Iroh`s son`s name) and a mention of the White Lotus group. Although I`m not sure what the writers are getting at with links between Iroh and Sokka.


Iroh's son was named Lu-Ten, not lee.

The Master seems to be a member of the White Lotus Society (which if you remember back in season 2) is a group of individuals with whom Iroh was associated with. However they didn`t seem to be loyal to the Fire Nation, thus I don`t believe that Aang and Co. have anything to worry about.

Sorry your right I`m thinking about Zuko`s cover name.

[Vampire Alucard]

Iroh's son was named Lu-Ten, not lee.

Lee was the fake name that Zuko was giving when him and Iroh got into Ba-Sing-Se.

Yes but it's not like Sokka knew this. It was a very amatuer move by him to tell anyone he was from water tribe. It could have gotten him and everyone else killed/imprisoned and would have foiled the chance for the eclipse invasion.

[The Drunken Monkey]

Iroh is GAR.

[helpmenow316]

sak isnt a dumb person am pretty sure he knew he can trust his master...

[RacheT]

I wonder what he was thinking when his master was pretending trying to kill him. :oh

[Nizuma Eiji]

Yea, i know. I was just correcting ol' dude who called Iroh's son by Zuko's cover name.

[Black Swan]

Great episode... sokka's master really reminded me of the characaterization of miyamoto musashi.

Iroh defines GAR, he is manly wise, compassionate to his commrades... and BROLIC.

[Chatulio]

On a related note, this is the second "Great Master" to recognize Sokka's enormous potential. The Machinist, the world's greatest mechanical mind, gave Sokka similar praise for his keen mind.

I am beginning to see the potential for Sokka to be the man who unifies and leads the entire Avatar World, which as Pathik said was only divided in an illusory manner. Only a man with Sokka's inventiveness, unorthodox mind and charm would be able to bring peace and prevent devastating repercussions from annihilating the defeated Fire Nation.

/geek


Actually that may be what the writers have planned. And it would be a great twist in a world were the benders rule a guy withought bending skills can unite everyone.

[Vampire Alucard]

I just caught the episode (bleh, on the West Coast) and it was a very good episode. I think from this point on is when the season will pick up and steam and remain that way until the very end. I love how they haven't forgotten about elements from the previous seasons (White Lotus). This was a great episode for Sokka character development and it was also very awesome to see Iroh acting the way he did while secretly training and working out.

I am definitely looking forward to the next episode. The one thing I was a bit disappointed about was that there was no "chibi Avatar" cartoon at the end of this week's episode. Not a real big deal though.

[Pimp of Pimps]

Uncle is fucking beast. :awesome

And Sokka finally got an upgrade in his skills. Nice style of fighting.

and the master is a member of the White Lotus. they are basically a secret resistance right now, right?

[Chatulio]

I believe they are more of a secret society with members from each side who follow the old ways.

Well you're hitting the general area but not the bullseye. You're right, we have heard Iroh's new voice actor- but he wasn't the teacher, that was Roku.
Remember that Iroh played the guidance counselor.
You've also heard him in the Bending Battle short..."Fire is the best!"
Also there were only three super-deformed shorts made so last week's was the final one.

Didn't watch the episode yet but that's very good news. Predictable but still great news.

I'm guessing he'll probably pwn that clueless excuse for guard and bust out.

Why they have what seems to be a useless foot soldier guarding what would have been their Firelord is beyond me- but something tells be they're going to regret it. :LOS

KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILL

[Seto Kaiba]

I was surprised to find out that the whole deranged state by Iroh was just an act. Based on the previews for Season 3, I got the impression that he was actually in a weak mental state. Iroh has shown to be quite cunning before, so maybe I should've expected it to just be an act.

[Hio]

Iroh is badass:amuse I think he'll help Aang and his gaang

[The Drunken Monkey]

Iroh is so awesome, he's becoming my favorite character.

He'll stomp anyone who gets in his way.

For all the people saying that Sokka endangered the mission by giving away his identity, you have to remember: AANG, KATARA, TOPH, and SOKKA WERE ALL THERE. I really liked the master, but if you seriously believe that he and his apprentice, who was owned by Sokka, could have taken down all these benders, you need to evaluate the situation again. Plus, the Master and his apprentice were in a secluded castle, so I doubt they could have outrun the avatar.

The only possible problem was what happens afterward he was defeated (this is assuming they don't just kill the master, which is a pretty good assumption), but it would have been unlikely for him to identify Aang as the avatar if Aang was smart about it (he should have just sticked to one element that wasn't air; I still have no idea how he identified him, unless he saw posters of what Aang looked like). All he would be able to say was that there were some benders infiltrating the fire tribe, which would be a pain in the ass, but still manageable.

[Omega id]

My favorite 2nd favorite episode :P

Iroh was foolin' everybody! That old man, you thought he was still fat? that old man is swoll! lol

Also I thought Sokka's training should've been more than a day... would've made a bit more sense to me... then again it was omre about him realizing his own strength.

You don't think they'd be hunted by the entire fire nation for killing one of their most respected sword masters? Plus the master had Sokka to the ground with a sword at his throat. If he wasn't the nice caring guy he turned out to be, Sokka would have been dead this episode and had it not aired on Nickelodeon.

[Pimp of Pimps]

I'm pretty sure Sokka new the consequences of revealing his identity. He did it anyway because he couldn't live with himself if he lied to get something like this.

If it turned out that the Master was loyal to the Fire Lord then I'm sure he would do everything in his power to contain the Master. He's not an idiot.

He was on the ground with a sword at his throat >< If the Master wanted to he could had easily killed Sokka. Aang, Katara, and Toph probably could have the Master and his apprentice "contained" after that, but it would only be a matter of time before someone would get suspcious and call a fullout search for them. He's not an idiot, morals just got the better of him.

The master could have killed him, but that's besides the point.

I'm just saying that Sokka isn't stupid and knew the consequences of what he was about to do. It wasn't a lapse in judgment like some people say.

I believe not caming clean ot the master would have had bigger consquences

It could have gone either way I guess. He could have killed Sokka, and tried to take Aang, Toph, and Katara as captive to interrogate, considering they knew Sokka. Any resistance from either of those three would have probably made things worse, but even if they didn't resist it'd be easy to figure out that Aang was the Avatar if he was imprisoned, and execution to him (and probably Katara and Toph) would be a likely act. Whether they escaped before that or not isn't relevant.

He not only put himself in danger, but his friends (and the entire invasion) as well. It was luck, and a lot of it, that nothing happened.

I believe not caming clean ot the master would have had bigger consquences
Of course, but I don't think Sokka was under the impression that the Master knew anything about him. The fact that the Master did know, and they got off scotch free, was also luck.

[Graham Aker]

Heh, Toph bended the meteorite to look like the logo for Nick.

This episode is my favourite of the Fire book. Master Piandao is a very cool guy, and is quite the master swordsman himself. And Iroh, damn, he is buffed up eh? And the White Lotus, seems its not just a Pai Sho players club.

Cant wait for the next episode, especially to see some Azula skin. :drool

[\zol]

I think we need some Avatar supplementals such as:

Raid of the South Pole: Death of Hakoda's wife
Forced Love: Pakku and Kanna
Lost in earth: Toph learns to Earthbend
Death of a Prince: 600 day siege in Ba Sing Se with cameo of Long Feng and younger Kuei(Earth King)

[Raiden]

Finally, I get to see the whole episode. I've been waiting for this for a while. Thanks for the link . From the litte that I saw, I was truly impressed. Iroh tricking everybody and whatnot. I wonder if he will break free from the prison.

The Dragon of the West will make his return, and it will be grand.
