She ensured the peace for over 200 years and even after her death, the four nations lived in peace. But not everything she did was good, as she did make mistakes that had a long-term impact on the Earth Kingdom.

And I'll never miss the chance to highlight the fact that Avatar Kyoshi did say that she 'killed' Chin. Even though his death was a stupid, avoidable accident, Kyoshi recognised that she caused it, and was willing to be held responsible for it.

Kyoshi fun facts. She is a biracial avatar. One parent earth and one parent air, adopting her mother’s fans to aid with airbending. Kyoshi is a late bloomer to bending and has a hard time doing precise/bending small items. She is literally go big or go home. She takes no BS from people as an adult but is still respectful. Also living the longest of all the avatars we know at this point, dying around the age of 230.

I had to apologise at work for being sleepy all day, cause I stayed up late to finish the first book

Avatar Kyoshi is getting her own animated film and she has a book series. The creators of the series know what a cool character they've created.

A sorta thing that used to bug me in that episode is how Aang is convinced that he... or rather Kyoshi did not kill Shen. Thing is, Aang literally has no way of knowing whether or not she did it. It was his past life afterall. Looking back at it now, its actually in character as Aang is a naïve kid. He assumed that if he is a pacifist, so was everyone else in the avatar cycle, after all they are all him so they must all share the same values and whatnot. Aang doesn't realize yet that his values and nature is a product of his upbringing and culture that he is a part of. I honestly think this is reincarnation done right. In so many shows reincarnation is basically somebody being reborn over and over as the same person, with the same values, personality and very often even the same appearance. Reincarnation is definitely not that, and I appreciate the fact that in the last air bender past lives of aang are distinctively different people, given they were all from different cultures, history periods and faced different hardships. What I am going to say next is... kinda a spoiler. Technically it never comes up in the show proper but by just saying that and letting others know it won;t, that is already a spoiler in on itself. So if you don't want any spoilers for the avatar stop reading now. I especially like the fact that the previous air avatar, Yangchen, is pretty much nothing like Aang when it comes to personality of character. We don't really learn a lot about her from the show proper but in the supplement materials about the world, its clear that she is not a stereotypical example of Air Nomad virtues. In fact she is pretty bad when you judge her as an air nomad. That and also her personality seems to be much more rough and serious. She is not a chill, bubbly air folk like Aang is. And also she is not somebody who puts indviduals above the greater good. It could be easy to make the previous air avatar the carbon copy of aang but they didn't, they didn't even made somebody similar to aang, and I am so fucking glad they didn't.

If you guys get the chance, I highly recommend you guys read the two Kyoshi books. She is super interesting.

Kyoshi is savage and her justice is brutal. She was not a passive Avatar and had no qualms killing someone is the name of justice. If you guys check out the Kyoshi books, she straight up murders someone without hesitation. She literally picks a guy up into the air and drops him to his death.

She's passive as shit. She let a brutal tyrant conquer the entirety of the Earth Kingdom and only did something when he came to her neck of the woods. And even then she only killed him on accident, she was just trying to run away.

Lol what incredible analysis. Def not ouright stated later in the show or anything...

Kyoshi said "I did it and I'd do it again." Also, Chin was kinda short, but also Kyoshi was VERY tall.

“Okay, I need some more Kyoshi stories now!” Well boy do I have good news for y’all, there’s two whole entire books dedicated to exactly that. The Rise of Kyoshi, and The Shadow of Kyoshi. There’s other books for a few other past Avatars as well, but Kyoshi is the fan favorite.

"Aang says he doesn't want to kill anyone." Later that episode Aang kills someone without a second thought.

11:58 This is gold comedy timing. He immediately humbled and is like "I retract all my previous statements about silliness of your methods"

Sooo excited for your next reaction!!! Time to introduce my favorite character in the whole series!❤

Aang the pacifist, to Roku the wise mostly being brought in for knowledge, Kiyoshi's introduction as an avatar that was at 100% at all times blew my mind as a kid. Kind of like you guys theorizing earlier about "evil" avatars, suddenly seeing an avatar at full potential with zero reguard for her enemies doing whatever necessary for balance and her people also had me wanting to see more of her story immediately.

Kyoshi Is my fave. There are some books about her and her story about being the avatar. Funny fact, before she finds out about being the avatar (at 19 yrd), she wasn't a great earthbender and had a lot of issues to control earth in general, a lot of people around her find her kinda clumpsy and foolish, even herself. I think the element she struggled the most was ironically the earth. But her story Is sooooo great, I love her 🥰

soon the best episodes will be upon us.

13:08: "Ok, I need some more Kyoshi stories now." Then you will LOVE the two Kyoshi novels, Rise of Kyoshi and Shadow of Kyoshi. They tell the early parts of Kyoshi's life.

Oh also, fun fact! Kyoshi used those fans as weapons because of the fact that she was an ABSURDLY powerful avatar. She used them to help her focus her power, because otherwise she legitimately struggled to not destroy shit accidentally.

I just love how avatar Roku is like "To speak with me you must go to a secret temple on a certain day of the year, at the exact right time of day, and then open a door that can only be unlocked by advanced use of fire bending..." Meanwhile Kyoshi is like "OUT OF MY WAY I HAVE WORDS TO SPEAK."

A little fun fact the guy who wants to Give Ang the penalty The guy that wears the green outfit in this episode is voiced by James Hong otherwise known as mr. pink from kung fu panda Po’s dad the goose!!!

Also they’ve never stated this in the avatar show or legend of korra, but later fans found out in the books that avatar kyoshi was bisexual 😊😊😊😊

Fun fact: Kyoshi was 230 years old when she died. Master Earth benders live for a ridiculously long time. That’s why Bumi is still so spry for a 112 year old.

"I need more Kyshi Stories now" That's what everyone said. There are now two books (Rise of Kyoshi and Shadow of Kyoshi) with her as the protagonist.

The foaming from the mouth guy is the funniest thing to me in this show. It’s so fucking funny😆

Avatar works like a file,and in that file u can make a new file. In that file its empty but u can put lot of stuff to it. Then if u make a new file into it, the new one is refreshed, its empty. So when Avatar pass away, a new avatar comes and it got a fresh new memory and new life. Basically that.

If you haven't done so by now, I encourage you guys to read up on Kyoshi cause she was an utter badass. She lived for 230 years! She was around for so long that the fire nation (next in line for the avatar cycle) feared she'd never die. She was also insanely tall, towering over everyone and had legit no issue with killing people and being heavy handed in maintaining justice and peace which made her a very effective avatar but her policies also lead to the decline of the Earth kingdom after her death.

Sometimes I need to point out that Saca and Katara lived in a village of 100 people until early teens. And now are flying around the world.

I loved that avatar day was not celebrating the avatar cause when I was a kid watching I fully expected it to be that

It wasn't Kiyoshi's birthday, it was the birth of kiyoshi island.

Is it just me or i think they would have more fun and crazy laugh time in avatar korra since its meta story 😂 specially after they realize what every season tackles

I like to think of it like Kyoshi was watching and just pushes Aang out of the way and had nothing to do with the clothes

Fun Fact; Avatar Kyoshi lived to be over 200 years old, and was over 7 feet tall.

That foaming guy was there the first time they met the kyoshi warriors. He was a foaming raving fan boi even back then 😂

Kyoshi is a favorite for a reason. She doesn't care and got the job done. Not perfect, but ultimately very respected.

3:22: THE TWIST! WTH!? XD

you guys NEED to read the Kyoshi books! The author worked with the original writers to ensure it was accurate and still captured the same energy and feel of the show, they are SO good! The books made me realize that Kyoshi is not a murder machine, just going around killing willy nilly, she took it VERY seriously. She did not take killing and death lightly. She took it so seriously that when she faced Chin, she never laid a hand on him, she tried to talk reason and when that failed she did what she had to to protect her people but because the actions she took indirectly led to Chins death(the idiot just sat and screamed on a crumbling cliff instead of saving himself), even though she had no intention of killing him, that connection was enough for her to consider it her fault he died even though it really wasn't. Its just wild to me that everyone in the fandom thinks she's just so blasé about murder when its actually the exact opposite 😅

6:55 callback to an earlier episode where the same guy reacts the same way to Aangs little party trick lol

No spoiler: you were discussing possible plotlines for the finaly. What sets Avatar apart from many other shows is that it has a great finaly. Its really freat. 10/10. Super epic and clever, an amazing ending for an amazing show.

13:10 : if you want Kyoshi stories, read the books "The rise of Kyoshi" and "The shadow of Kyoshi", they are both excellent. They notably explain Kyoshi's natural ability to bend immense masses of Earth, but how she also struggled to focus her earthbending to bend something as tiny as a pebble.

"123rd day of asking you guys for a Monkie Kid reaction..." he said out of a stubborn sense of duty.

Chin said "I want all the smoke" and Kyoshi said "bet"

Avatar Kyoshi is such a badass

Fun fact, Kyoshi lived to a little over 200 years

If you guys are interested there are 2 Kyoshi novels that take place during her reign as Avatar

The reason for the fans was brought up in a book about Kyoshi and apparently her mom was an air bender and joint gang leader with her dad.

Kyoshi's avatar is the coolest avatar we've ever known, her character, her strength is just perfect.

Yeah man Kyoshi is definitely the most badass out of the avatars. She was also completely ruthless against those trying to attack innocents

11:48 This is for the people who think Clark Kent wearing glasses and nobody recognizing him is unrealistic 🤣

I loved Sokka in this episode, especially his props 😭

You guys had some nice insights about Aang not wanting to kill anyone.

Regardlss of which nation the avatar is born into, theyre more than that. Roku isnt "a fire nation avatar", hes just an avatar. Sure, by birth he is fire nation. But the avatar is kind of above governments and nations. Wouldnt be easy to keep the peace between all four nations if they showed loyalty to their own above all others.

I still believe that kyoshi is the most Powerful Avatar. She's literally a war machine. She has century of experience since she discover the secrets to immortality! You guys wll definitely love kyoshi novel.

This won't spoil anything but Kyoshi along with another who y'all will meet was the most powerful Avatars in history, Kyoshi discovered immortality and lived for over 200 years old, if you want more Kyoshi stuff, she has two light novels "The Rise of Kyoshi" and "The Shadow of Kyoshi" which tells her entire life from her childhood to her adulthood.

The creators jokingly said that Suki once dated "foaming mouth guy" and wasn't proud of it. Also he was voiced by one of the creators.

The Avatar is responsible for their actions in a past life. They're the same person, same soul. That has advantages and disadvantages. But Aang can't go around taking credit for all the good he has done over the centuries and then wiggle out of the bad things.

Okay so I just checked on audible there is two for kyoshi two for the wind avatar before aang and they're just about to release a Roku book so they're probably going to release one more of him and then they'll probably cover the water bender before kyoshi after that. The Roku book is available for pre-order currently so if you start with the kyoshi first book then by the time that you finish everything they currently have they should probably almost be ready for the next Roku book by the time that you're caught up

Zuko was stealing from everyone. He doesn't care rich or poor and was doing it just for himself, so it's the furthest thing from Robin Hood actually.

yup. We need Kyoshi's story to get animated. If you're interested there are Kyoshi novels avaliable. Definitely worth checking out. She was heck of an Avatar!

Sokka and Katara really lost the court case because they didn't know how GOD TIER Kyoshi was.

7:41 Kiyoshi was like 7 feet tall

Aang: I didn't do that! Kyoshi: yes we did, and I'd do it again if i had to

So I've seen the show, and sometimes my brain doesn't put things together, but what if Kioshis fans were to help her learn air bending since she was supposed to struggle with it, what with her element being earth?
