“Congratulations Katara, you’re a bloodbender”. Such a powerful yet scary technique to have at your disposal. And you can tell Katara's horrified that she does.
And that's how the South style ends. Katara had to learn the North style, so now the South style has been completely lost to the war. Hama was the last one and the last scrolls are buried in The Library.
@@riel4553 I mean, it's possible Katara still taught the Southern Style as it was a part of her culture. A lot of it seems survivalist in nature, and wrapping your head around such concepts helps broaden the understanding of the art as a whole. However, I'd find it very unlikely that she would ever teach Bloodbending to anyone else.
@@Starphoenix But that's the cruel part, Katara never learned the style of her own tribe, there was no one left to teach her. She found the only person in the world that knows the traditions but she's now into using bending to torture people.
@@riel4553 I doubt that would stop Katara from figuring a lot of it out just from her being a prodigy. A lot of the styles draw from the culture of their surroundings, so if she pulled more from Southern Culture, she could in effect reverse engineer the bending inherent to that culture. This also does not consider that potentially the Southern Water Benders saved their techniques on scrolls or other media for future generations.
Fun fact I'm not sure people have mentioned. A lot of fans theorize Hanna breaking out of prison is the reason the firebenders came to the southern tribe to find the last waterbender. They didn't think it was Katara. They thought Hanna had fled back to her home.
I can explain this theory a bit better but I'd rather wait till we get to the episode where they talk about that in detail as it has some spoilers she hasn't seen yet
One underrated scene in this episode is when Hama rips the water out of the flowers and kills a big chunk of them without a care despite saying that they only bloom a few weeks a year moments before. It shows that despite her many years living in that town, she doesn't care about the citizens in the Fire Nation, they're all the same as the men who captured her in the first place. They're just "flowers", who cares if they die in service for Hama's revenge?
Hama is also there to provide context on how bad the war has affected the Southern Water Tribe. So much so that Hama invented a brutal subset of Waterbending.
Katara needed a hug this episode. Like I know a lot of people love to theorize how blood-bending could be for medical procedures, and I get where you’re coming from, but even though Katara is a healer, I feel she would only do that as a last resort.
I feel her breakdown at the end tbh, she was forced to learn something she didn't want to which kinda parallels her eagerness to learn everything waterbending in earlier seasons
This episode does such an amazing job rubbing in the true effects of this war. Hama is attacking citizens who had nothing to do with her imprisonment, but they also live peacefully in the Fire Nation while their nation attacks and ravages other nations. Katara met a Southern Water Tribe waterbender for the first time in her life. It really makes it apparent how not just the airbenders, but other bending styles have been eradicated too. The waterbending Katara and Aang have learned is from the Northern tribe, and there's every reason to believe there were different stances in the Southern tribe before they were wiped out. And speaking of, any waterbenders who had been still alive in captivity when Hama broke out were likely executed shortly afterward. They wouldn't take chances with more of them learning the bloodbending technique.
The weird thing that this episode is does well is that we should be fascinated with blood bending. It was a technique born out of survival, but the episode does well at making as feel off about it from the start.
2:24 Katara and Sokka's tribe used to be much bigger and more established than its shown now. There have been many fire nation raids over the years and with all the men gone at war the state of the tribe has severely diminished. Also I think their version of a "house" would be like am igloo which would have a built in chimney.
"They have buildings that don't melt!" If the construction workers were waterbenders, it makes sense that by the time Aang reappears the tribe was reduced to what we saw.
Not going to lie, this episode scared the absolute sh!t out of me when I was younger, especially Katara’s story at the beginning. Also I’m pretty sure they this episode bc the creators were getting letters after letters of fans asking why can’t water benders bend a human body when it’s mostly made out of water. And BOY they did not disappoint.
Seeing that episode “Puppet Master” is one of the scariest episodes ever in Avatar The Last Airbender. The fight scene between Katara and Hama is so scary when they use “Blood bending” UGH it’s so creepy and scary episode
"I don't like it!!!" Is this sentence referring to: A) Adora wearing a flower in her hair for the first time B) Zamber watching the story of a tortured prisoner of war taking her anger out on countless innocents and attempt to manipulate a teenage girl into continuing her revenge spree by teaching her a body horror technique that she invented through animal experimentation to rob people of their agency and force them to walk towards their own doom
And here we have the episode that could’ve passed as a Halloween special given how freaking dark it is. (There’s a good chance it was MEANT to be, but it aired in November, so maybe some production delays)
It premiered a couple of weeks earlier in the UK, so it did serve as the Halloween episode. Nickelodeon always had odd scheduling issues with this show.
God this episode goes insanely hard. Looking at now it’s hard to think of something to laser focused on a character’s hard trauma being something that I saw as a kid.
Hama and Katara are great examples of how people handle trauma differently. Katara chose a path of compassion and justice, while Hama chose a path of vengeance. It's heartbreaking that Katara was forced to learn bloodbending. In a better world, Hama and Katara could have healed together, connecting to their heritage through waterbending. Instead, Hama is locked away, and Katara is betrayed and traumatized.
"There's water in places you never think about." "And like all plants and all living things, they're filled with water." "When you're a waterbender in a strange land, you do what you must."
I love this episode, so Creepy Hama is a great villain, the way they make blood bending look and the sounds....plus so great Voice acting from Tress MacNeille,...Top episode!
I don't feel like Hanna is the type to full-on torture people. It seems like she wanted to give the Fire Nation a taste of their own medicine, albeit misdirecting that feeling to hurt civilians. So, I think she probably tried to keep them in the same conditions she was kept in - not specifically tortured, but still locked up, alone and helpless, with just the bare minimum food and water to stay alive.
The next episode is called nightmares and daydreams. It will come out on 9/24/24. It is less horrific than this episode, but more intense. Also, at 18:10, yeah, that's why I warned you about how creepy this episode was going to be in the comments of the last reaction.
This episode started so many moral debates on blood-bending, and I have always enjoyed it. Even if it seems creepy, it is the perfect way to take someone down without harming them. Especially because in this episode, they show you can blood-bend people without causing pain. Aang said it felt weird when he was lifted into the air. So a blood bender can lift people while not causing pain, and they are fully conscious. This means that a master bloobender should be able to fly or at least push themselves in a specific direction.
1:04 Yes this did in fact air around Halloween. In the UK it aired on Oct. 25th and in the US on Nov. 9th. 4:21 "Hama's kinda great, I love her." Yeeeaaaah about that... The Fire Nation ship that the water benders froze during the raids in the flashback was also the one that Aang and Katara explored in the first episode. Clearly Hama had to be "visiting" her prisoners more than just once a month. They would still need food and water to survive. You can only go like 3 days without water and 2 weeks without food so if she was only visiting once a month then none of the villagers would have been alive when they showed up. I feel like that's why Hama was in the woods at the start of the episode, she was on the way back after feeding them. Might also have been how Toph heard the people for that short time, the door was opening and then closing behind her. I've seen so many reactors wonder about the possibility of bloodbending before this episode but then they just think "no way a show like this that aired on Nick and was meant for children would go that dark". Then they get here.
Favorite episode. Great moral. Just because people resemble the individuals who've wronged you doesn't mean they are the same. Roku was just as much Fire Nation as Sozin.
This is a great episode for the philosophy of the series. Fire and earth have always been the most offensive elements, while air and water were more "defensive", so to speak. It's a break from expectations that water, which healed, immobilized and beat, could do something so invasive and disturbing. It just shows that all the elements have more facets to be explored and used.
Hama is the most tragic and terrifying antagonist in all of Avatar she really gives me Enya the hag vibes but I can't decide who is worse of course bloodbending is by far the most cruel and twisted form of secondary bending style that was ever created like this was straight up traumatizing to younger me the idea of not being in control of your own body is horrifying.
I forgot how creepy this episode was. I'm a little surprised we didn't see Hop Pop in his bed. It would have made a good Halloween episode and in the UK, it first aired on October 25th. I have to assume Hama has been feeding those people. They had to have been people she captured no more recently than last month. She was too busy with Katara to grab anyone new at night. Granted, maybe the day before the full moon is enough, but the locals treat it like it only happens on the night of the full moon. Toph mentioned hearing people screaming underground, who suddenly stopped. Hama may have been tormenting her captives and called it quits for the night before coming out to find them. I also think she had too many captives for one night, given that people around here are pretty scared to leave their homes on the night of the full moon. She is fueled by revenge and likely wants to inflict the same pain and suffering on them that she experienced.
Blood bending is considered the ultimate water-bending technique. However, practitioners of this dark art risk opening themselves to insanity. It's simply too much power for some people to handle.
There's one thing in this episode I don't understand. In the first flashback, Hama was surrounded by ice and snow. Why didn't she use that against the firebenders?
Overwhelmed by numbers. She makes it clear that they would raid the tribe and lose more people each time, so they certainly fought back, but she's gonna get tired or injured eventually during the fight.
Not-So-Fun-Fact: The Fire Nation attacked the Southern Water Tribe relentlessly for two reasons; 1. It was closer and less defended than the Northern Water Tribe. 2. In case Fire Lord Sozin did succeed in killing all the Air Nomads, then this was a contingency plan in case there was a Water Tribe Avatar that needed to be…dealt with.
How could Toph didn't detect Hama's lies when they both nearby? I know that it might be due to Toph's feet being on wooden floor, but not always, right?
Tbf, I can't help but sometimes imagine what would've been Azula's reaction if she was told that Katara can even bend blood. Would she have became more terryfied or wary of the water trtibe? Whould she have made a different strategy against them all together? I have no idea, but I'm so curious.
Sorry you were suprised in a creepy way but I was suprised in a good way. Since I knew you had already seen Kora I didn't think the introduction of blood bending would make anywhere near this much of an impact! It was a very interesting reaction.
I love this episode sm introducing the concept of blood bending proves why Water benders are the most op of any of the benders in the show. Hama’s backstory is really sad and I completely understand her anger. Her trauma made her the way she is and I can’t necessarily blame her for taking out her anger on citizens of the same nation that ruined her life.
@@PerfectKirbyairbender don’t have much variety in what they are able to do compared to waterbenders. Plus I don’t recall them being able to power up at all. Do you think her damaged mind thinks they are innocent no she attributed all the fire nation ppl to act the same and you can’t say you don’t understand why. What she went through was awful.
I pity what was done to Hama and the life she lost but I don't feel sorry for Hama as she is now because of her actions, which are much more demented if you think about the logistics. Hama might've been driven slightly insane by her imprisonment, but she's no idiot. She has been specifically targeting civilians because she is less likely to get caught that way, they have zero chance of putting up resistance. Also, despite her claims of being a warrior, she is not hurting the Fire Nation in the slightest, they clearly do not care that much about the civilians, but if she were targeting the military, the organization that actually harmed her, they'd be on to her quick. So in the end this is all some messed up power fantasy, revenge kick for her. Sorry, I understand her trauma but does not make me sympathetic or forgiving to her.🤷♀️
This is One of my all-time favorite episodes in the show blood bending is so cool also I’m curious is Zamber going to watch legend of Korra after she is done with this one in my opinion legend of Korra doesn’t deserve the majority of the hate it gets
I’ve heard Zamber’s seen Korra already, but in case not and for anyone else, spoilers below since this episode makes me wanna talk about it I remember being dumbfounded as all hell when Korra was being bloodbended by Tarrlock and Amon when they had no need for a full moon because they were THAT good. I know some people write it off as a weak retcon, but I enjoy it a lot. It was neat twist.
This episode is a interesting proof that waterbending is a big case of an overpowered ability. While true, bloodbending is scary, I personally think that bloodbending is handy and cool despite being a dark power. Zamber, this is not gonna be the last time you see Katara bloodbend.
I'm still very surprised nick allowed this with zero edits etc lol like I feel bad for any avatar fan when they were watching this in a fairly Christian household cause if they saw this they would of been like WHY YOU WATCHING DEMONS TIMMY
As dark as this episode is and as twisted Hama is, I kinda agree with her. With bloodbending Katara could easily subdue Ozai or Azula. In war, things aren’t always black and white and the line between good and bad can get blurred.
This is one of my favorite episodes from the Avatar series. Technically it's their Halloween episode. There is even a villain song meant for Katara here on TH-cam that has her facing the results of learning Blood Bending. I don't think I could add any more to the comments by now on how good this episode is. I will say that because of this episode I completely hated the live-action movie m shyamalan did for The Last Airbender because they mentioned Hama in the first 10 minutes of the movie.
I have seen many people think Hama is very evil But in all fairness, can you blame her? Is it so easy for her to let go of her hatred after everything she's been through? But of course it's really bad to target innocent civilians with revenge. But in the final analysis, what these victims should really blame is not only H but also Fire Nation, which caused this series of tragedies. As for Karata, although she said she doesn’t seem to have this kind of power But in a few episodes, she will soon be able to understand Hama's desire for revenge.
this episode is such a great example of how victims of colonialism, genocide and other targeted suppression can snap and become radicalised and continue the cycle of harm.
“Congratulations Katara, you’re a bloodbender”. Such a powerful yet scary technique to have at your disposal. And you can tell Katara's horrified that she does.
And that's how the South style ends.

Oh you know I didn't even think about that that makes alot of sense
And fire nation not take any prisoner from that because they afraid
But wasn’t news about Hama's escape covered by the Fire Nation government?

Not sure if you noticed this, but we do get a brief glimpse of a Young Kanna (Sokka and Katara’s grandmother) during Hama’s flashback story
Hama is the perfect exemple of "hurt people hurt people"
Hama is also there to provide context on how bad the war has affected the Southern Water Tribe. So much so that Hama invented a brutal subset of Waterbending.

Katara picked up on all of hama’s teachings after seeing it done once! That’s a master waterbender right there

There have been many fire nation raids over the years and with all the men gone at war the state of the tribe has severely diminished.

"They have buildings that don't melt!"
If the construction workers were waterbenders, it makes sense that by the time Aang reappears the tribe was reduced to what we saw.
To make the flashback even worse, the writers confirmed Hama may have also eaten the rats she stole the water from.
Fun fact: Hama’s VA is Tress Macneille who plays Daisy, Dot, and Mom.
Isn't she also the VA for Marge & her sisters in The Simpsons?
No but she do voice the mom of principal skinner in the Simpsons
Not going to lie, this episode scared the absolute sh!t out of me when I was younger, especially Katara’s story at the beginning.

At 6:20 I love how everyone else except Toph is looking and following the crone with wide eyes, but Toph has the most dead inside look 😂.
Blind joke 🙈
16:27 Someone's probably already pointed it out, but if not, notice how katara uses an earth bending form/stance for that attack

I remember you saying you watched Korra before but how much of it have you seen? And do you plan on a rewatch after you finish Avatar?
And here we have the episode that could’ve passed as a Halloween special given how freaking dark it is. (There’s a good chance it was MEANT to be, but it aired in November, so maybe some production delays)
It premiered a couple of weeks earlier in the UK, so it did serve as the Halloween episode. Nickelodeon always had odd scheduling issues with this show.
I was going to say that this definitely aired right before Halloween where I lived

One of my favorite episodes. I love how it addresses how anyone can be driven to extremes, and believe they are in the right.
This might just be one of the scariest episodes of the show
8:53-Foreshadowing.
12:05-Prewatch?
14:55-I mean....it could be really usefull against the fire nation.They ARE at war after all!
How could Toph didn't feel Hama's footstep coming nearby at the beginning of the episode???
Yep, you reacted exactly how I pictured 😅
"There's water in places you never think about."
"And like all plants and all living things, they're filled with water."
"When you're a waterbender in a strange land, you do what you must."
I love this episode, so Creepy Hama is a great villain, the way they make blood bending look and the sounds....plus so great Voice acting from Tress MacNeille,...Top episode!

This episode is so creepy I got chills, like, 5 times watching this video even though I've seen it countless times over the past decade
Favorite episode. Great moral. Just because people resemble the individuals who've wronged you doesn't mean they are the same. Roku was just as much Fire Nation as Sozin.
Bloodbending truly is the scariest out of all bendings 😨
Zamber: "Aww, you're so cute, Hama"
Me: PFFFFFTT Hahahahaha..... Oh dear
The legendary streas macnelle was hama. You may know her as mom from Futurama
This is a great episode for the philosophy of the series. Fire and earth have always been the most offensive elements, while air and water were more "defensive", so to speak.

I read the title
Yeah this is brings back memories 🥲
This will forever be my favorite atla episode
This is a fan favorite episode. I remember feeling disturbed by this episode when I watched it (live-oh god I'm old).
Katara gaining so much power in book 3! Queen indeed!
This is such a good ep to watch on Halloween! XD
Yue watching the fight:😠 I don’t think so! Here, Katara, have some magic moon strength. Kick her butt!
I forgot how creepy this episode was. I'm a little surprised we didn't see Hop Pop in his bed. It would have made a good Halloween episode and in the UK, it first aired on October 25th.

The Spooky Month began early this year
once again, such a good story we get during book fire- its so interesting
Its really cool when you see the frozen ice ship in the very first episode was frozen by hama and kataras mom
Very dark episode and now Katara is now a bloodbender
If I were Hama, I might have even more sinister plan after escaping the prison, than rather just living and kidnapping.
Blood bending is considered the ultimate water-bending technique. However, practitioners of this dark art risk opening themselves to insanity. It's simply too much power for some people to handle.
8:45 Condensation does mean there are small amounts of water in the air key word small.
There's one thing in this episode I don't understand. In the first flashback, Hama was surrounded by ice and snow. Why didn't she use that against the firebenders?
Overwhelmed by numbers. She makes it clear that they would raid the tribe and lose more people each time, so they certainly fought back, but she's gonna get tired or injured eventually during the fight.
She was the last known waterbender if hama resisted they would use the other villigars as insurance
She was surrounded by at least 100 soldiers, you do know benders aren't invincible, even while in their element, right?
I believe Old Man Ding had his encounter when Team Avatar was at the North Pole.
I am so sorry you witnessed all of... everything this episode has me in tears everytime. And it isn't a Halloween episode but it might as well be
In case you didn't get the vibe, this was their Halloween episode. I think Oshawott figured it out, though
6:14 She sounded like Finn from Adventure Time😂
4:50. As if this episode wasn’t creepy enough, that head of cabbage looks like Gran Gran!
Hama acquired her inn when its owner mysteriously vanished.
her story is so messed up but aaaaaaa i love how it gives us more
Man, could you imagine a main villain being a super strong Blood bender, I mean, thats just, *CRAZY RIGHT?!* yeah
Crazy..
Not-So-Fun-Fact: The Fire Nation attacked the Southern Water Tribe relentlessly for two reasons;
1. It was closer and less defended than the Northern Water Tribe.
2. In case Fire Lord Sozin did succeed in killing all the Air Nomads, then this was a contingency plan in case there was a Water Tribe Avatar that needed to be…dealt with.
Oh no this episode! Run for the hills! 😱
This episode is so iconic. Unforgettable.
So did Toph feel the vibrations of the ppl screaming?
Bc I doubt toph could feel them moving around their chains from so far away.
How could Toph didn't detect Hama's lies when they both nearby? I know that it might be due to Toph's feet being on wooden floor, but not always, right?
Best Halloween episode ever
Why was Hama walking like a psycho when she got out of her cell.
That's what happens when you're over 30 and don't exercise.
(Hama says she was locked in there for decades)
@@riel4553 wow the writers really thought of everything didn’t they.
My fav episode in the series
Tbf, I can't help but sometimes imagine what would've been Azula's reaction if she was told that Katara can even bend blood.
Would she have became more terryfied or wary of the water trtibe? Whould she have made a different strategy against them all together?
I have no idea, but I'm so curious.
Sorry you were suprised in a creepy way but I was suprised in a good way. Since I knew you had already seen Kora I didn't think the introduction of blood bending would make anywhere near this much of an impact! It was a very interesting reaction.
Hama failed successfully
I love this episode sm introducing the concept of blood bending proves why Water benders are the most op of any of the benders in the show. Hama’s backstory is really sad and I completely understand her anger. Her trauma made her the way she is and I can’t necessarily blame her for taking out her anger on citizens of the same nation that ruined her life.
*ahem* Airbenders? Also she was taking out her rage on innocent civilians instead of soldiers, I don't feel sorry for her.
@@PerfectKirbyairbender don’t have much variety in what they are able to do compared to waterbenders. Plus I don’t recall them being able to power up at all. Do you think her damaged mind thinks they are innocent no she attributed all the fire nation ppl to act the same and you can’t say you don’t understand why. What she went through was awful.
I pity what was done to Hama and the life she lost but I don't feel sorry for Hama as she is now because of her actions, which are much more demented if you think about the logistics. Hama might've been driven slightly insane by her imprisonment, but she's no idiot. She has been specifically targeting civilians because she is less likely to get caught that way, they have zero chance of putting up resistance. Also, despite her claims of being a warrior, she is not hurting the Fire Nation in the slightest, they clearly do not care that much about the civilians, but if she were targeting the military, the organization that actually harmed her, they'd be on to her quick. So in the end this is all some messed up power fantasy, revenge kick for her. Sorry, I understand her trauma but does not make me sympathetic or forgiving to her.🤷♀️
What is the song at 3:57 it sounds so fimaloar but i cant find itt
This is One of my all-time favorite episodes in the show blood bending is so cool also I’m curious is Zamber going to watch legend of Korra after she is done with this one in my opinion legend of Korra doesn’t deserve the majority of the hate it gets
I’ve heard Zamber’s seen Korra already, but in case not and for anyone else, spoilers below since this episode makes me wanna talk about it
I remember being dumbfounded as all hell when Korra was being bloodbended by Tarrlock and Amon when they had no need for a full moon because they were THAT good. I know some people write it off as a weak retcon, but I enjoy it a lot. It was neat twist.
22 seconds after release is crazy early
This episode is a interesting proof that waterbending is a big case of an overpowered ability. While true, bloodbending is scary, I personally think that bloodbending is handy and cool despite being a dark power. Zamber, this is not gonna be the last time you see Katara bloodbend.
I'm still very surprised nick allowed this with zero edits etc lol like I feel bad for any avatar fan when they were watching this in a fairly Christian household cause if they saw this they would of been like WHY YOU WATCHING DEMONS TIMMY
As dark as this episode is and as twisted Hama is, I kinda agree with her. With bloodbending Katara could easily subdue Ozai or Azula. In war, things aren’t always black and white and the line between good and bad can get blurred.
Imagine if bloodbending had an R rating and you could extract the water out of someone like something out of Mortal Kombat. 😨
Zamber if you can be a bender what kind of element would you use?
Water Bender :) for sure, no question
This is one of my favorite episodes from the Avatar series.
Technically it's their Halloween episode. There is even a villain song meant for Katara here on TH-cam that has her facing the results of learning Blood Bending.
I don't think I could add any more to the comments by now on how good this episode is. I will say that because of this episode I completely hated the live-action movie m shyamalan did for The Last Airbender because they mentioned Hama in the first 10 minutes of the movie.
I have seen many people think Hama is very evil
But in all fairness, can you blame her? Is it so easy for her to let go of her hatred after everything she's been through?
But of course it's really bad to target innocent civilians with revenge.
But in the final analysis, what these victims should really blame is not only H but also Fire Nation, which caused this series of tragedies.
As for Karata, although she said she doesn’t seem to have this kind of power
But in a few episodes, she will soon be able to understand Hama's desire for revenge.
this episode is such a great example of how victims of colonialism, genocide and other targeted suppression can snap and become radicalised and continue the cycle of harm.
Can I know how long ago did u watch korra and did you finish the entire series?
I finished the entire Series of Korra, but i didn't read her comics
