I love how Sokka was defending and guiding Toph during the battle. Always taking into consideration her blindness (with both her eyes and her feet). Constantly pulling her to where they needed to go, and shielding her from what she couldn't see. He did the same thing in the previous Book when they were on a boat, and the guy swung the ore over their heads, Sokka ducked Toph's head to dodge the ore. Also, the tears Toph makes when she believes she's about to die gets me every time 😭

This show is a masterpiece. I've been re-watching it every few years since it came out because you ALWAYS learn more from it depending on what stage in your life you're in. I am so glad I got to watch it when I was a kid, because that feeling you get when you understand a new theme in the show on re-watch is SO much more profound when you remember how you felt when you watched it as a kid when life was just simpler. It really is. This show arguably even helped raise me and Iroh's words of wisdom would ALWAYS push me out of tight spots in life; I would NEVER lose hope in life because of his words.

I love the way they handled the zuko/azula fight. The could have done an epic villain/heroic score, cause it was a great fight, instead they chose a sad lament for the orchestrial song.

I remember watching the last episodes as a kid w my family. We were all glued to the screen and silent. I swear we all had that look of awe and sadness at the last agni kai, when previously we were so excited to see them Duke it out. Azulas meltdown really got to me as a kid, even if I didn't fully understand why.

Watching Zuko use other bending styles in his firebending techniques, Aang showing off his proficiency with all 4 elements and Sokka show full confidence and leadership will always be such a great feeling of payoff for each of their plot lines and journeys, glad you got to see this story through and join us in the fandom

what if it ended with katara saying "i love you like a brother" and they both shook hands

One of the things I love the most about this finale is that everyone played a major role in the final battle.

The final agni kai between Azula and Zuko was a work of art it was a beautiful tragedy, no laughs no jokes just silence as the fight unfolded.

Can we talk about team sokka? Yes, Aang defeating Ozai was important. But Sokkas idea singlehandedly took down the whole fleet. So good. Every member of the team was massively important in this finale. I love it so much.

It's a bittersweet fact of a war that goes on for so long that it's up to the kids to stop it. As three kids, they stopped an entire air fleet of hundreds of firebender warriors at the height of their power. But it is the irrationality of the war that pushed the eventual need for three kids to become awesome heroes.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate how such an amazing animated series - with such depth of character and storytelling - had the last line of dialog for its entire series essentially be Toph making a blind joke??!! 😂😂

Remember how Sokka said in season 1 how you can't fight Firebenders with Fun? And Aang said 'You should try it sometime!' ? Now it comes full circle, with Sokka getting everyone to the ships bomb bay, only to dump them into the ocean. Guess you really *can* fight people with fun!

@@martinkoehler3631 Well, it seemed like one of a few possibilities. 1. It's a nick show, meant for kids, but also serious enough for adults to appreciate, so it was a bit of humor to counterbalance the pathos. So it was probably just a kid-like humor moment, topped off with a 'Happy birthday' at the end of it. 2. Maybe they looked at the rest of the fleet and were like '... Even one ship short, they're still, surely going to get the job done, no problem.' And at the moment they were all juiced up by the Comet, so what do they have to fear? No creature in the sea could threaten them, that they know of. All they need to do really is get to land to survive, which honestly seems pretty easy considering that firebending, as we've seen, has an effect to use to accelerate a firebender forward. 3. Yeah, agree'd, they probably just didn't see eye to eye with the plan and wanted to be stopped, as unlikely as it was. Remember in books that there were fire nation colonies and people that moved from the nation to the colonies to live alongside the earth kingdom folk that were absorbed into these colonies were living peacefully alongside eachother, and neither didn't want to give up that sense of community and peace they'd established.

I know what you mean! To this day I still search endlessly for anything that captures the same feeling that the original Last Airbender series gave me! And I may just be doing that for the rest of my life, honestly It's a once-in-a-lifetime kind of experience and I'm glad we all got to share it with you!

The show has a slow start. Respect melon for admitting you didn’t like it at first. ALSO melon you’re the only reactor I’ve ever seen acknowledge my favorite lowkey line. Azula: “I’d really rather have our family physician look after little zuzu if you don’t mind” 😂😂

The Last Agni Kai with Zuko and Azula is legitimately heartbreaking. Look at these children fighting to the death because of the abuse of their father. I have so much sympathy for them both. Azula is really just a product of her environment. I get teary eyed every time with the music watching them fight

Better be careful, Animelon, that opening to THE LEGEND OF KORRA will squeeze out your heart in a very emotional way.

Crazy thing is for that guys birthday he got spared. Considering what happened to the other air ships.

The sad thing is, Zuko asking about his mother was leading up to a movie that Nick cancelled so the team could put all their effort into Korra. Said film was made into a comic, thankfully, but still.

Zuko managed to redirect some of Azula's lightning as seen with the bolt shooting into the sky which is why he survived. He did the move imperfectly but was close enough to survive it. The lightning probably just didn't go through the stomach or heart and instead went somewhere in between.

Could imagine if Azula had banished the camera people suddenly

The detail I love about Zuko is every Agni Kai he's been in the other person has attacked somebody that either wasn't looking or wasn't fighting. Even with that fact Zuko was the supposed dishonorable one.

Azula is a very complexing character in some ways even more than Zuko. Despite being a monster, more than that shes a victim and tragedy. Because Azula was such a prodigy she was favored by her father who indulged in her bad habits and molded her in his image which made it hard for her mother and Zuko to relate to her. While shes undeniably a bad person who has done terrible things, its important to realize that she didnt recieve the same level as compassion as Zuko did from his mother and uncle iroh. Thats not to justify her actions but to highlight that at the end of the day she's just a child who was a product of her environment. Maybe if things were different she couldve been better

@9529jake

Calling her a product of her enviroment is plain ignorance and you skip over the other side of it which is nature. The reason she was looked at and treated differently was not just because but it had to do with her persona being likened to that of her father. Iroh and ozai both had same parents and yet one was a homocidal villain and the other had a good nature. Same is for azula and zuko that both had the same parents and azula happen to be more like her father and that made him respect her more than zuko which took more after his mother and grandfather. To basically assume that azula's mother treated a good natured azula and made her bad through neglect is just plain ignorance of the debate about nature vs nurture. Some people no matter their nature grow up to be caring people with morals and same can be said about the opposite. Some people have great upbringing and yet turn into monster while my family survived war, famine and despair growing up in one of the poorest countries in the world and despite that we have never bothered anyone. Even azula knew what she was from the start when she stated that her own mother looked at her like a monster that she was. Her mother attitude towards her came after and not before her nature which is a big difference. It's different treat someone as a creep for no reason for example and to see them be creepy and act accordingly to protect yourself and others. Also at some point we must take responsibility for our own actions or else we would be wrong to give fault to anyone based on your own logic. We could just say ozai acted the way he did cause of his father and so fourth so he is also a victim of his upbringing and is not to blame for killing countless innocent people. If anything zuko had a worse upbringing then azula by a long mile. He was not only traumatized by loosing his mother, but also burned by his father and banished from his land as a child. Azula was respected by the remaining parent and lived like a rich spoiled brat her whole life. The things that happen to zuko was not his fault but every bad thing that happen to azula was her fault. Her friend betrayal was cause of her evil nature and so fourth. If anything you are going against your own logic. Of someones nature is bad it does not matter what their nurture is cause they will always be bad, however someone that is good natured can still be a good person with bad nurture and we see that happen everyday in war ridden countries.

@@9529jake Everything you said was pretty ignorant and pretty much abstains everyone in involved of any agency. Iroh was a war criminal with a notorious history in the world which implies he’s killed plenty of innocent people or at least resulted in the death of them. He callously made a joke about Burning Ba Sing Se to the ground. The only reason Iroh became a better person was because of the list of his son. The creators themselves pretty much stated that Azula is a product of her environment and could’ve been better through different circumstances. Zuko was constantly shown compassion and care with his mother and uncle and heck even his enemies that Azula never shown to received her entire life. Zuko mishaves and bullies a bunch of baby ducks Ursa lectures but comforts him the same. Azula shows crass behavior Ursa dismisses and says “What is wrong with that child?”. Zuko gets a gift from his Uncle that holds meaning and teaches a valuable lesson, Azula gets a raggedy stuff doll and that pretty much sums up Iroh’s connection with her or lack there of. Whatever Hardships Zuko had to endure he had people showing compassion that was never shown for Azula. Blaming it on just nature is just cheap and meaningless.

There's a lot of undeserved hate towards korra. It was originally meant to be a single season as an add on for the avatar series, but it got so popular that Nickelodeon greenlit a season 2, but said that was it. Then they reversed that decision and greenlit a season 3, then did the same with season 4. Korra doesn't flow like The Last Airbender did because it wasn't planned out, and Nick kinda screwed the show over with how they handled it.

The Azula & Zuko fight never fails to give me chills…. just all the story and build up to it, the animation, the sound design + the music… all of it just combines so perfectly.

21:57 I half expected Azula to follow that line up with, "Oh wait... Right, I banished our family physician... Oh well!"

I’m glad you drew the same conclusion. Aang turning his back on Ozai was proof of his convictions as well as to prove he could bend another’s energy. If Aang truly believed he had no right to take another life he had to be willing to risk his own especially to someone as vile and evil as Ozai. By stating true to his conviction Aang proved his spirit was unbendable if he faltered if he had even then sense of ‘maybe I need to kill Ozai’ and he tried to bend Ozai’s energy it would have killed him. In the end Zuko becomes Fire Lord and he and Aang establish the alliance that Sozin and Roku should have been. As for the ending notice Katara leans into Aang to kiss him which ties back to what she said before that love was not something she could think of as long as the world was at war the war is over so she can finally be happy.

Remember that Azula saw her mom and was not surprised. That tells me she's been seeing her mom for a while which means her breakdown happened far earlier than we were shown...

The story doesn't end here. There's a series of comic books that continue the story of Aang and the others before it shifts over to Korra. A lot of unresolved questions and mysteries are mostly uncovered there.

This was such a 10/10 finale! Everyone played their part in it so well, Aang being able to finish things the way he wanted to, and just everything about the epilogue.

The song playing when Azula and Zuko are fighting is called The Last Agni Kai, which is fitting. It's definitely a more sombre version of the normal Agni Kai soundtrack. Fitting, since if you think about it, this fight is quite tragic. Azula is a tragic villain at the end of the day.

Zuko is pretty much the poster boy for redemption arcs. Sokka and Toph are my favourite characters.

There are a series of comics that extend to the next few years and go into the next steps for the characters. Including a story about Zuko's mom. I believe they were done by Dark Horse. Very good reads. I suggest you take a look at them. I am sure you can read them online somewhere or just pick them up. Worth the money in my opinion.

Zuko truly looked inside himself to save himself from his other self, only then did his true self revealed itself

Azula didnt do it to herself remember shes 14 .. its the parents fault mostly the dads and her mom a bit too

What you’re feeling is totally normal. It’s a show that grows on you over time especially into the second season. And it’s definitely a show that causes a lot of post show depression when it’s over lol but there’s good news! It’s an actual total vibe when rewatching it! Because now you know the story and you can just enjoy it without trying to figure things out. Plus you get to see the little things you maybe missed last time. The creators loved to refer things between all the seasons. Especially the Lion Turtle ;)

One thing I love about the final agni kai is that zuko incorporated all of the different bending styles into his fight, he stood his ground like an earth bender the way iroh taught, he replicated a couple of aangs air moves except with fire, and he was going to use the lightning redirection which was derived from water bending

Katara vs azula isn’t as obvious as you think, katara was handling azula very well during the battle in ba sing se.

one thing about the first episode ending on a cliffhanger like that. When they aired, they did it all at once back to back. It was a big event. so luckily we didnt have to wait when it aired on tv.

And new we see the full effect of Mai's love for Zuko and how the dominos fall for Azula and her descent into paranoia and mental breakdown. What happened to Zuko's mother is explained in the comics.

I love this series so much it’s phenomenal I can’t wait for Korra

One thing about "kids shows" is they're made by grown ups. Even something like spongebob has a few adult gems and jokes that I didn't catch onto until I was older. Ed, Edd, n Eddy's ending, PPG, hey! arnold, rugrats (I love chuckie), and the list goes on. You'd be surprised, not all shows, but still...

This has been a great journey glad I found this channel through it it was fun

Man this episode is the reason i love azula, i feel for her, shes only 14 and going through all this war being raised as a literal war machine and favored by her father. She thought her own mother seen her as a monster, all she wanted was her moms love like zuko wanted his fathers until he realized he didnt need it, but azula does need her moms love. If you read the comics in one called the search you get to see what happened to their mom. And if its a spoiler to say this then COMIC SPOILERS INCOMING: . . . . . . . . She tells azula "if i really am your mother, im sorry i didnt love you enough" azula starts crying and runs away. Its hard to hear that when all she thought she was seen as a monster. Her mom did love her, they just couldnt connect properly because of ozai.

Also, I’ve been watching Toph’s VA reactions too, she’s so cute, and I love it when she says the lines!

A lot of stories are continued or expanded upon, including what happened to Zuko's mother and Azula's expanding fate, in the comic series. I really recommend you check them out. There are a bunch of different series, but the main line you want to get is The Promise, The Search, The Rift, Smoke and Shadow, North and South, and Imbalance. They also lay the groundwork for a lot of what you see in Korra.

Been quite the journey. I’ve been wanting to re-watch Avatar for some time now and now I got to do that with you and everyone else here

No, Aang actually didn't really master all elements. He mastered Air (obviously) and, at least according to Katara, Water, but Earth was more like 85%ish and Fire maybe 70%ish. He was only able to perform the 5-fireblast-attack of a fully realized Avatar in the Avatar State, basically infused with the power of all previous Avatars. To be fair, on a normal day this would have still been enough to beat any single-element-master in a 1v1.

If you wanna figure out what really happened to Zuko’s mother, there is a comic series somewhere out there, its one of many mini comic series post-show is called ‘The Search’, it’s a pretty good read, and it’s available for digital on the book apps or stores if you can find physical copies

There are comics which serve as season 4. You can find them at Barnes & Noble. They also answer what happened to Zuko’s mom

atla has been my favorite show since i was a teenager. And now as an adult i have gained an even deeper appreciation of this masterpiece and everything it does. There are many great shows and animes out there, but if im honest, nothing ever came close to atla for me. The bar has been set soooooo high and the search for a better show still continues....

Some fun facts: Ozai before the fight starts, he shoots jets of fire out of his mouth and hands, this was shown in Season 1 when Roku talks about Ozai using the comment to end the war, and same with how the door opens, only a fully realised avatar can open the door alone with 5 fire blasts, which is only possible because of airbending, Aang is able to launch fire from his hands, feet and mouth and not be sent flying because of it.

Its always lovely seeing new people experience this phenomenal show and I am really glad you enjoyed it and I have been very fortunate being able to watch such a genuine and beautiful soul such as yourself enjoy this series. Thank you for all that you do Ani, can't wait to see whats next.

Not counting Katara's intro the first word spoken in the series "It's" last word spoken "perfect" "It's perfect" First episode "The Boy in the Iceberg" last episode "Avatar Aang" Even in just the episode titles they show Aang's growth through the series from just a boy who got frozen in an iceberg to fulfilling his destiny as the Avatar.

I wouldn't say Aang mastered mastered all the elements by the end, but given how little time he had, I'd say he was more than proficient enough at all of them.

​@@lightningg252everyone always forgets that second half of the quote but it makes all the difference. And it really shows in this conclusion.

I like how in Zuko's Agni Kai, he uses techniques from other bending styles to counter Azula. We all know about lightning redirection, but his dispersing her flames and the spin kick are also moves we've seen the protagonists use.

Fun fact: the story of ATLA continues in comics that are canon in case you're wondering about the cliffhanger with zuko looking for good mom. I'm sure you can find videos about it or pirate the comic.

Or be a nerd and actually buy it. Lol

Having finished ATLA and in my opinion and probably yours as well, the show is a 10/10 .... Having said that, ATLK (Korra) is an 08/10 still very good and a worthy successor, but you'll find multiple changes, specially on the new Avatar Team and the central character, because this is not a person becoming an Avatar..., instead its about the Avatar maturing into a person, hope you enjoy and looking forward to see Ur journey with ATLK

The end is nigh, great journey melon. I loved watching your reaction to this series

This is what happens to people such as Azula and Ozzai who value power and being feared rather than love and respect, they end up all alone. To quote a few words from a Star Wars novel “You were thinking about yourself…and now yourself is all you will ever have”, that about sums it for both antagonists. Now Ozzai has no power anymore, Zuko’s mother Ursa in the comics would tell him “Now I see you Ozzai, you’re just a small man trying desperately to be big”, Aang took away his bending, Ursa took away his pride.

Season 1's has great Iroh moments, but the season's purpose is to underplay him more than it hypes him up. He is the slow/mystery character build. Season 1 literally CANNOT, by virtue of good writing, make Iroh this deep-dive badass right away. But it has highlights to keep you intrigued and setup the future. Season 2 can't hit without Season 1's pitch. Iroh's role in the Season 1 finale is the beginnings of greatness. Iroh's more genuine moments with Zuko also begin as far back as episode 3, where he defends Zuko against Zhao. Episode 7/8 the Winter Solstice shows us Iroh can see spirits and escape from a near hopeless capture...crazy skills are shown. And behind it all, he is the guide behind all the Firebending we see, able to outmatch or flex on every Firebender we're shown. He even sets up the lessons Jeong Jeong delivers. Episode 12 is a big one for him of course, The Storm, where he explains his nephew's disposition, tries to council him, and pridefully consoles and forgives him...oh, and redirects lightning. But the finale he reaches a turning point.

Its such irony that the 100 year war started with the avatar and the firelord and then ended with the avatar and the firelord. Destiny truly is a funny thing.

i just finished watching the whole playlist of you reactions and is fascinating to see the initial disinterest slowly transform in genuine passion and love for the series

Avatar Extras Sozin’s Comet Part 3 and 4 This is the only season to have more than twenty episodes. Sozin's Comet is a lot like Halley's Comet as it passes near earth every hundred years. Also, with the comet's energy, firebenders can deliver huge, super-charged attacks over much longer distances. This is the first time (and only time) we've seen Azula at the Fire Nation throne. The airships hold fifty crew members each. The place of the final battle is known as the Wulong Forest and was featured during the opening of the show. The Wulong Forest is known for the thousands of rock columns that tower over the landscape. Though the fight between Aang and Fire Lord Ozai is the battle that the show has been building up, the fight between Zuko and Azula remains as the highlight of the series (at least in my opinion). The visuals are stunning, and the fact that the show acquired a full bled orchestra to conduct the final battle really emphasizes the situation. The music is pretty somber as it is a fight between siblings brought upon by their messed up family. Also, the fight moves that Zuko utilizes during their fight are reflective of his time with our main characters as each of his choices and stances reflect each of the different elements including air, water, and earth. Also, Zuko using the breakdance move from season 1 is a nice touch as well. 20:49 it was at this moment Ozai knew…..he messed up The fifth form of bending, that was taught to Aang by the Lion Turtle, is known as energybending. It is a move only a Fully Realized Avatar is capable of doing. 26:11 This beam of light is reminiscent of the light in the series premiere when Aang emerged from the iceberg. Ozai's rule as Fire Lord was the shortest in Fire Nation history. (only six years) 28:56 Aang's necklace and robe are similar to what Monk Gyatso, his mentor used to wear. Also, the entire Avatar series spanned less than ten months. In Zuko’s coronation, it's the first time in more than a hundred years that citizens from other nations were invited to the Fire Nation Capital. 30:50 There is a series of comics that came out after the series ended. If you want to find out, look in the story, “The Search.” 31:31 Some say Ba Sing Se sunsets are the most romantic in the world. Bonus (and my final fun fact for you): the very first word uttered in the series was “it’s” and the last word uttered in the series was “perfect.” In the end, to describe the series: “It’s Perfect” This journey was an experience and I am glad that you enjoyed it.

Toph metal bending the door into armor is my favorite scene of the whole show, she's so badass man

35:59 "We also saw that person who was tracking down Aang" Which one of the 23498710 characters trying to do that are you referring to?

@@saphcal Yeah probably, just found the description of her kinda funny :)

u became my favourite reactor of all time!! Im glad u watched this show! Also love ur genuity opinions!!

I count myself lucky being able to relive this series (and others) with reaction channels like yours. It brings the community together in such a way that nothing else compares to. Thank you for your reactions and I look forward to your reactions of Korra! Also, we are getting a movie with all of Team Aang as adults! Hopefully that lives up to the hype. If I could recommend a series. YuYu Hakusho has my personal favorite main cast out of any series I have seen. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend the series. It's a classic anime that set the stage for many that came after it.
