I am so sad that this particular reaction is coming to an end soon. ATLA was my whole childhood (and part of the reason I fractured my elbow). I feel a lot of my morals and personal view of the world/people was developed by this show. This is what happens when kids shows treat kids as real thinking people, capable of understanding intense things, and when they don't understand it's such a pleasure to come back as an adult and understand so much more.

Zuko redirecting lightning at his father is one of the greatest moments of the series. It always reminds me of what he screams at the sky when he was trying to learn the technique: "You've always thrown everything you could at me. Well, I can take it, and now I can give it back!" Also, my personal headcanon for Iroh's escape is: Like Ozai was able to sense the eclipse underground, I imagine Iroh knew about it and was able to sense it within the prison cell. He blasts out seconds before, but by the time the guards got there, they'd lost their bending and he took them out hand-to-hand.

I wanted to leave a comment saying pretty much the same about Zukko facing his father, but you've already done it very well! So much great symbolism. He stands for himself, states things as they are (It was cruel, and it was wrong), and doesn't let his father control him anymore. Then, when Ozai uses the last card he has when everything else fails - that is, violence - Zukko isn't affected. He has accumulated a lot of experience, fighting for his life, being betrayed, learning things, and he became stronger from it. Not only is he not affected, but his father takes his own attack against himself. This is so freaking cool, and I hope this helped people figuring out when they were in abusive environments.

It also indicates that what his father has given him (all but the genetics), he rejects them, sends them right back.

Last time Katara trusted Zuko, Aang died. He didn’t just get hurt, he died. He only got brought back because of the special spirit oasis water, which she probably remembers all too well how she almost wasted on Zuko. It’s a hard situation because as much as Zuko is genuine now, he was genuine back then too, but was still pulled back by Azula. Who’s to say he couldn’t change his mind again? As much as I love Zuko, I totally get Katara’s vehement feelings and threats.

So no, I don’t think the outcome would have been different even if Katara had managed to heal his scar.

Zuko is to this day considered to be one of the best examples on how to give a villain character a redemption arc. Mostly because unlike almost every other cartoon or show, the ENTIRE SHOW of ATLA is Zuko going through the change before he's even READY to redeem himself and then he has to actually WORK at proving he's ready to be a good person. Most other shows and cartoons will just have the villain go through some or other trauma and then the good guys feel sorry for them and they're suddenly welcomed into the group.

also he trips up. from the time he gets that the fire nation is no longer a place for him in 2x1, he doesn't just get to know and integrate the earth kingdom and get better. he learns for himself different points of view from different people, like Iroh told him to, from victims of the war, to people who take advantage of the war, the poor, the rich etc, but also HE RETURNS TO THE FIRE NATION. he was a kid when he left, and a sheltered one at that, and then idealized the place for years, so he would always have a little bit of doubt as to whether or not he truly is right. by returning to the fire nation, having all his dreams come true, he can now know exactly why it is bad. like the palanquin to move fifteen meters, which might have been normal as a child, now seems ridiculous for the teenager who spent years walking and riding everywhere. it is only by realizing the destiny that was imposed on him that he could clear his sight to his actual destiny, and now he could ask himself the big questions Iroh asked of him. Zuko's stint in the fire nation is truly crucial to is character arc, and any redemption arc i believe. redemption is full of highs and lows, of mistakes and lessons learned in blood.

@morley364

Жыл бұрын

Him returning to the Fire Nation is so huge as well because he gets what he wanted and THEN redeems himself. If he redeemed himself in Season 2, it would be because he thought he was just never going to get what he wanted and that he just had to accept it. So he's letting go, but not actively turning it down. It's certainly difficult to accept something just isn't going to happen, and to try to adapt to that and become a better person (as he did in Season 2), but it's so much more powerful to get what you want, have a lot of power and respect, and then say "this isn't okay, we shouldn't be doing this, and I don't want to support this". Redeeming himself after going back makes him an active agent who chooses his own redemption, rather than a passive one who accepts it.

The Zuko moments in Nightmares and Day Dreams are to me one of the most critical parts of his redemption arc. It would be one thing if everyone in the fire nation was constantly hating on him cus then it would be a matter of fine you don't like me I won't like you. But the fact that he got what he was looking for, sitting at his father's right hand in an important war meeting, and he realized that it wasn't right this wasn't who he wanted to be, that for me makes his arc so special because he chose to be good even though he got everything he had always wanted.

What I absolutely LOVE about Zuko's turn, is that we really needed to see him restored to his former glory for it to impact the most. Before, he only had a nostalgic version of the fire nation in his mind... But now, because he faced reality and chose the right thing, that is when we know that he is *actually* a good person.

Azula managing to fool even Toph's lie detecting feet is definitely impressive. She held off the gang without her bending and distracted them long enough that the eclipse didn't even matter. Girl is a masters at manipulation and gaslighting. Which makes sense. Since she almost certainly learned it from Ozai, the gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss champion.

We spent time with the water tribes and already see how they have limited themselves with segregating men and women in society, but with the firenation you see that they have women in their military to an equal amount. Ozai did not hesitate (to my knowledge) to make Azula his heir. She is not a bargaining chip that is sent away like property for an alliance in a marriage, and I find that such an interesting choice.

Azula is so bada** though… the way she was effortlessly dodging Aang and Toph without even having her fire-bending

It took Zuko getting what he thought he wanted to realize it wasn't what he thought. He had this hope in him, based on childhood hope, for his father's approval, even love. It was always the main drive. To the point it blinded him to everything else. Even when he started finding happiness and hope in other things he still had the deepest part of his heart for his old honor. When he finally got it, it freed him to really look at himself, his actions, what he truly is. He realized something was not what he expected. He felt wrong. He went thru routes of being angry, ordering an assassin, and just trying to be a good obedient son without a care in the world. The feeling of it all being wrong and not who he was replaced his need for his fathers love and approval. This is where I felt Zuko truly took an mature step. He chose to leave the Fire Nation. His whole arc has been my favorite ever. I am so hyped for the next 2 reactions!!!

When aang shaved his head and thr koalasheep came it may seem random but i always saw it as a reminded that while aang is battle ready is still a kid and a gentle monk. He respects and cares for all life and him changing his demeanor shows that he is (and wants to be) the monk he was taught to be.

The best part of Zuko is how he was always suppose to turn around and be good. Even before he became a fan favorite. Most shows sees one character become popular and then try to make them good so they can keep them in the series. Never changing their plan for Zuko is what made him and his journey so amazing, it is great writing at it's finest. I honestly think Badd Medicine should watch LoK because it's very different but still a good show. Just don't compare the two and you'll truly enjoy the differences in Avatars and how the world changes.

Zuko's speech to his father was so impactful, especially when he told him what people really thought about the Fire Nation as opposed to what the citizens of the Fire Nation had been taught. It's timeless and applies to real world events.

I'm so excited!! My very favorite episode is the next one you'll watch!!! Zuko is my favorite, his character arc is exceptional.

Iroh gave Ming the "don't come to school tomorrow" treatment

Zukos redemption ark is the longest and most thouroughly explored one I ever saw! He wasn't just suddenly good, like magicaly happens in many shows. No, he struggled with the thing he wanted more than anything in the world: His fathers approval and love! And his immaturity got so many times in his way because, like Aang said, he's just a teenager! Thats why it felt so natural. The producers took no easy way out to make him good. It took him disillusionment by neaarly getting imprisoned by Azula, a whole self find journey alone, his uncles serious talk and the difficult, cripling inner battle that followed to become a good person again. And then he needed to get what he always wanted to realize that he became a good person and what he wants is no longer his fathers approval. He finally matured and realized his naive decision to rejoin his father. Now he carves his own path! It inspires you because you see how difficult it is to change for the better and that it takes time to realize that it is good that you changed!

Just saw that y’all are going through this show. Loving the reactions. Zuko’s final push to the heroes is some of the strongest writing I’ve seen in a show since Darth Vader. Love really shines in Zuko, even from the earlier episodes. It’s buried in his stubborn actions. You could argue that Azula is the same way, as she’s done nothing but grow up during a war, in a war lord’s favor. Like most strong scripts, every perspective is on display and it becomes increasingly complex as the story progresses. Glad you all enjoy it.

Battle Armor Appa is everything!

I think the implication for Iroh escaping is he literally just manhandled his way out, broke open the cell with his bare hands.

I would’ve LOVED to have seen that, but they probably didn’t include it because he was too powerful for the animation team to handle making that.

Sometimes the deadliest weapon is your mind and voice. Azula can use ppl emotion for her advantage which is very effective.

So glad to catch this episode so soon after upload! I've been loving y'all's journey through atla!!

Man, it has been great to watch you guys enjoy this animated show. And I really hope you find another animated series to enjoy!

"Why am I so bad at being good?!" To be fair, Zuko, you were pretty bad at being bad too lol

So popular fan theory I like is that Azulon didn't actually command Ozai to kill Zuko, but commanded him to give his son to Iroh to raise and treat as his son and heir to pay for the gall to try and take advantage of Iroh's son dying. Ozai would rather kill Zuko than allow him to pass him in the succession order, and Azula knew that and that's why she came to mock Zuko. notice both Azula and Ozai allude to the idea of 'losing a son" "doing the unthinkable" but they never just say Azulon commanded Ozai to kill Zuko despite them never shying away from saying words like kill in any other episode.

Uncle Iroh really pulled a “I wouldn’t come to school tomorrow friend” line lol

The Western Air Temple was my favorite episode as a kid (Now it's probably Ember Island Players) because watching Zuko trying to insinuate himself in the group at last fulfilled every hope my tiny heart had ever had,

You guys cut the best line when Aang thanks Zuko, Soka says "what about me, I did the boomerang thing"

I probably rewatch Avatar once a year for the last 10+ years and it still holds up

When watching ATLA, i was first so disappointed that zuko did not turn over to the good side in the last episode of season 2 But later I realized that it was SO MUCH better that he went back and actually got the things he so wanted - dad’s approval, prince status etc. and THEN realize how shallow and unimportant those things were He self realizes his path, the fact that he is actually good and that his uncle was the father figure he was lucky to get (its the typical teenager to young adult transformation we all face where we don’t take our parents advice and support seriously as teenagers and then appreciate it so much when we become young adults)

Katara really let him know. She reached out to Zuko once already and his betrayal at the end of Book 2 nearly cost Aang his life. She's really not having it this time. The only reason she is giving him a second chance, albeit unwillingly, is for Aang's sake. I appreciate that she told Zuko upfront at the beginning that if he even looks like he'll step out of line she will step in and end him permanently. It really is that serious for her because trusting him before was nearly the biggest mistake of her life. Great writing.

Love you guys so much, always making me smile at the end of my day ❤❤

There are regular cats. The was Miyuki in the Blue Spirit and the Cat that got stuff in the zoo Aang made in Tales of Ba Sing Se. Also the panthers that chased Momo weren't mixed with anything. . There are subtle behavior patterns of certain characters in the show that sometimes get missed. Katara's behavior toward Zuko is the same as it is toward Jett. She gave them her trusted and they betrayed that trust and she is pissed and distrustful of them going forward.

thanks for much for the reactions!! i cant wait for you guys to see some of the best episodes in the series in my opinion!!

It’s been so fun watching you guys, once again, start something you’re really skeptical of, and the we get to see you just fall into the joy of it. I can’t wait to see you get to the “everyone gets an adventure with zuko” episodes. That character always speaks to me, the idea that he was looking for redemption and home in all the wrong places. But when he looks somewhere else, he finds people who appreciate what he has to offer. Still hoping you’ll add “the good place” to your list of series to watch. Lots of lessons in that one that relate to the ones here.

Really loving these reactions❤ im gonna be sad when you guys finish book 3!!!

So excited to see y'all react next week. It's 4 of my top 10 favorite episodes

I’m sure Iroh filed halfway through the bars right before the eclipse, so the guards wouldn’t notice.

God, I wanted Katara and Zuko to be a thing, so, so bad xD

Did not expect a DDPYoga reference lol that shit is so good.

"Fire Lord Ozai, where are you!?" I was left hanging on that note for months thanks to my local library.

We are nearing towards my favorite episode and im so hyped up about it BUT ALSO i am equally sad that we are nearing towards the end ugh

I love the idea that Iroh just got so JACKED that he broke the steel prison bars with his bare hands

If you look closer at the assassin he has some fake limbs because while he was young and still getting the hang of it blew them. Isn’t it crazy to what kind of lengths they go with the characters to make the, whole and believable. Love the series and love your reaction guys ❤ also can I suggest reacting to Brother Bear 😅

Omg the next episodes are AMAZING, be prepared😍

We’re almost to my favorite arc! I’m so excited you guys are going to love the next couple episodes.

Everyone thinks the "I love you" scene is real until he hits you with the "Baby, you're my forever girl"

YEESSSS I've been waiting for another update on ATLA from you guys!!

Zuko here🤚🏼

This is just the start of Zuko's redemption. This season was a masterpiece, yall are in for a treat

I’m not gonna lie, Azula is my favorite villain. She can whoop ass but when she uses that sociopathic mind…I can’t help but to give her props. She holds her own.

If the episode people in the comments are excited for is the one I think it is, you’re in for one of the darkest episodes of the series. It’s one of my absolute favorites to see people react to. Pain can be so blinding, and it doesn’t have to be physical to affect one’s actions. But hell is it weaponized in that particular episode. Terrifying. But AMAZING to witness.

Fandom history time: I still remember the fandom ship war between Aang x Katara vs Zuko x Katara. Aang was considered to be immature compared to Zuko who had more chemistry with Katara plus his redemption arc. 85% of fandom were pro Zuko at the time. More to come 😛

The kataang vs zutara war is more iconic than any of the battles or war in the series tbh 😂 majority of the fandom supported zutara and there are still celebrations like Zutara week done annually by Avatar fans. Katara fans make some of the top quality arts out there.

Seeing Combustion Man’s death makes me want you guys to watch Book 3 of The Legend of Korra aka one of the best seasons in either Avatar series.

Whoop whoop!!! More Avatar!!! Love your reactions!!!

12:36 “a potential for the channel..” a potential?!?!??!!! We absolutely NEED you guy’s reaction to that undeniable masterpiece (Saving Private Ryan)

The woman who brought uncle Airo, his tea is voiced by pro tennis player Serena Williams❤❤❤❤

KZread loads and it takes about 0.002 seconds for it to load and me to see the thumbnail to click 😂 I’m always hyped for some ATLA & badd med!

I squealed when I saw the notif!!!🎊🎊🎊

I love how after each episode analysis they give an outro, really convenient when I’m working.

Zuko really deserves the audience's love. He was raised by fascists and the only good role models he had were killed or silenced in some way. It's actually a miracle he held onto his empathy and managed to go against everything he knew as well as his girlfriend for the greater good. Even facing Team Avatar's suspicion and hostility doesn't cause him to give up on his path. Shows like this are one in a million and ATLA is a cherished piece of my heart.

It’s so funny seeing you talk about Noel!😂 I see him all the time on KZread.
