Description

Like all good things even Avatar: The Last Airbender must come to an end. Set in a world divided by elemental nations and torn by war, the story follows Aang — the last surviving Airbender and the long-lost Avatar — as he sets out to master all four elements and bring balance to the world. Packed with heart, humor, stunning action, and unforgettable characters, this iconic series quickly pulls Kristen and Michael into its rich, emotional journey. Avatar: The Last Airbender was created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. The main voice cast includes Zach Tyler Eisen (The Ant Bully, Little Bill) as Aang, Mae Whitman (The Duff, Parenthood, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) as Katara, Jack De Sena (All That, 100 Things to Do Before High School) as Sokka, Dante Basco (Hook, American Dragon: Jake Long) as Prince Zuko, Grey DeLisle (Fairly OddParents, Danny Phantom) as Azula, and Mako Iwamatsu (Conan the Barbarian, Samurai Jack) as Uncle Iroh. Season 3 follows Aang’s journey to master fire-bending and confront Ozai as Sozin’s Comet approaches, while Katara, Sokka and Toph carry on their own battles. The story culminates in an epic finale to the series.

Something I love with the first part is that when Zuko attacks Aang, there isn't a single moment where the Gaang think he's betrayed them, with Sokka the fact that Zuko's attacking Aang is almost an afterthought, and even by the end, they know that there is a reason for what he's doing. It shows how they have all truly come to trust him.

Everything in this story began with a friendship between a Firelord and an Avatar. And that's exactly how it ends. With that friendship restored.

I will never get over how solemn the music is when Zuko is fighting his sister, it isnt victorious or heroic, it isnt even tense...its just somber and sad, like there isnt a victory to be won there. its just a brother having to fight his struggling sister. Its so amazing,

One thing that I noticed is Zuko season 1 actually technically achieved his goal - bring the Avatar home and restore his honour, which he did.
