THERE IS NO WAR IN BA SING SE?! - Avatar The Last Airbender Book 2 Episode 14 REACTION! - บันเทิง
I still fully believe Iroh and Zuko knew Jet was spying on them. Two people that skilled don't get snuck up on that easily
I suspect that iroh having laid siege on this city would be familiar with the di'lee and figured someone would be watching and was just taking precautions.
But he did firebend his tea at the station. I don't think sieging the city would give him much insight into the serveilance Ba Sing Se employs over their own populus. I'm more inclined to say he learnt his lesson after zuko smashed the tea out of his hands back there. He's not without mistakes, but when he makes them he learns from them. Plus, the windows were fully open, he might have noticed jet. I also think he's perceptive enough to know the rocks were stolen and not just lost.
I just think he was being extra careful after his slip-up with the tea at the station and Zuko's scold.
@@MrPsych77 he never got into the city. He fought the wall guards.
@@olavihekandjo2928 it's logical to gather Intel before invading, that said whether or not he knows was just speculation.
The people of the water tribe are based on Inuit people, who do have a tan skin tone despite living in areas of high latitude. It's because of their diet and because they receive a lot of UV radiation during the summer, which the snow reflects.
Thank you for understanding what I meant by using the word "tan" definitely not the best word choice but was purely asking about the skin tone
@@TGLReacts obviously, I am Black from South Africa and I wondered why they were black but I just rolled with jut easy
@@TGLReacts nah it seems fitting
this episode is one of the best imo. to finally make it to the city and it turns out it's an enemy... and not one you can fight. so good
The whole Ba Sing Se arc is so genius. I love how morally nuanced the ATLA universe is. We've seen people from the Fire Nation defect and help the Gaang, Water Tribe higher-ups maintain archaic practices around gender and now the Earth Kingdom capital is corrupt. Every nation has its light and dark side and being a 'good guy' is much more about your individual choices than what nation you belong to. Book 2 is non-stop bangers from The Blind Bandit to the finale, and it's my favourite for that reason, but the Ba Sing Se arc feels like an big declaration of "oh you thought we were just a kids show?? here's some corruption, propaganda and creepy brainwashing??".
Yup , book 2 is where you realise that ATLA is goated, Then Book 3 hits that point home like a goddam giant hammer!
i love this crazy reveal for ba sing se for how it's been build up to be this bastion of the earth kindom the best of the best then seeing it's corruption flips the show on it's head that firenation is the only corrupt nation. Love how the world building of avatar is structured the fact this was on nick is so crazy with how in depth it is.
We've already seen instances of the Earth Kingdom having its fair share of corruption and dick heads, this was just the final big reveal of just how extensive it is.
Also, the surprise reveal that Momo is actually royalty.
CHILLS every single time Long Feng’s voiceover plays throughout the brainwashing scene. And then the re-introduction of “Joo Dee” is the cherry on top, literally jaw-dropping.
This show will always “slow down” but most of it is done to make the episodes breath and build more character development which is a big part of Avatar. It’s done perfectly
Book 2 has slowly been shedding the skin of "Nickolodeon kid's show". All of Book 1 tied back to really safe platitudes and life lessons that kids could learn about respecting people, understanding differences in other cultures, respecting different genders, etc., but it's like the writers sat down for Book 2 and said "Okay, we checked off all of the boxes for a kid's TV show that Nick set out for us, time to write an actual banger".
This episode is where they really turn up the heat. The show isn't just black and white, good and evil, light and dark anymore. This is the episode where the long-spoken-of great city that was the last holdout against the bad guys reveals that they're _also_ bad, but in a different way - a nebulous, systemic way that you can't fight with swords, water, or stones.
And the _best_ part of it all is that it's _still_ able to reach and be understood by kids. It's delivered in a way that children watching can still understand what's going on. It brilliantly introduces the idea of puppet states, government corruption, secret police, double-speak, and all of these very mature topics in a very digestible way.
Well said.
Perfectly put!
8:26 The Southern water tribe of Katara and Sokka have inspirations of Inuit culture. The Inuit are Indigenous people who have brown, light brown, and tan skin tones. So, it makes sense for Katara and Sokka to be tan
As for why, it’s because the magnetosphere is weaker at the poles, meaning that more energy from the sun can make it to the atmosphere. That’s why northern/southern lights occur at the poles significantly more than outside them. Because the poles are ice capped a lot of the energy doesn’t make it to the ground, but will still reach the population, hence their skin tones. That part is counterintuitive due to darker skin tones being associated with proximity to the equator and hotter climates, but it’s not always the case.
@@TukaihaHithlecI’ve read that it has more to do with their diet, which consists largely of fatty fish that are rich in Vitamin D.
See, the Earth Kindom is heavily based off dynastic China. And, as such, the political intruge is strong here. The Ba Sing Se arcs are genuinely peak TLA.
Also Aang and Sokka have such a great dynamic. Both are intenesely intelligent on their own, and capable warriors. Put them in a room and they share exactly 1 brain cell. This is peak homie behavior.
Gaslighting is probably the term you were thinking of. Fitting, considering what the Dai Li were using to brainwash Jet at the end
its not gaslighting really, theyre just straight up keeping and controlling information from the masses and threatening imprisonment/brainwashing to anyone who spills the beans, we saw a few people who clearly knew of the war but with an authority figure in ear shot they didnt say anything, so its not gaslighting that was stopping them from talking, its authoritarianism...the parallels to china and north korea are very clear
indoctrination
@@kakyoin5862 That's what it's called when you do it to children before they have a chance to ever think for themselves in the first place
it's really propaganda tbh
@@danielburrell4749 Propaganda is when you tell people who don't know about the war that there is no war.
Gaslighting is when you tell people who've been personally affected by the war that there is no war.
To explain why Katara, Sokka and all other people form the water tribes have a darker skin tone. Imagine this, all the snow is white, white is essentialy the color that reflects the most light, meaning all the snow is almost acting like a mirror and you can also easily get a sunburn from it.
It's not so much that she's tanned or sunburned ; it's just evolution. Genetic selection of the people most adapted to the living condition, in this case people with darker skin.
Correct, you see it with the Inuits!!
To clarify further, the polar regions get more energy from the sun for their own reasons, but because the ground is covered in snow, it doesn’t heat up. The climate being colder is intuitively in conflict with other areas where darker skin tones are associated with hotter climates.
Also their diet consists largely of fatty fish, which are naturally rich in vitamin D.
And with this episode, the glorious "There is no war in Ba Sing Se" meme was born.
"There is no Easter Bunny.
There is no Tooth Fairy...
...and there IS NO WAR IN BA SING SE."
There is no avatar movie
There is no live action Avatar in Ba Sing Se!
And there is no Queen of-
Wait a second...
I can’t believe how much worldbuilding and dark themes are put into just this one episode of a children’s animated show. I remember watching this as a kid and completely understanding what they were trying tk get across. Brilliantly written and easily explained! This show is awesome
Hey guys, Joo Dee commenting here to remind yall about the lack of war in our great glorious city of Ba Sing Se
ooh dont you worry, it gets even better!! this episode is one of the best, but by no means THE best. you'll see, the season 2 finale and especially the last half of season 3 will blow your minds
Even the next episode would compete with this one
For those who wonder how large Ba Sing Se is: according to the information about its size. And with people doing the math. Its slightly larger than the island of Taiwan for comparison.
So yeah its massive.
1:31 This will not age well...
Loved Aang and Sokka's brother dynamic this episode. I'd be interested in the war and the secrets too but it turns out there is no war in Ba Sing Se, so...
The water tribe is based on the Inuit tribes of the Arctic, hence the darker skin tones
I still don’t care what anybody says. I never found “the first” Joo Dee creepy. I found her strange/unusual, but when the reveal of her “origin” happens in a few episodes, it made me want to rescue and protect her. I love her. 🥰
There's a reason why us Avatar fans frequently use the saying, "There is no film in Ba Sing Se." And knowing makes it that much better now.
No one is ever ready for Ba Sing Se to be a surveillance state 😂😂😂
Edit: it gets better!!!! wait till the finale!
If I was Aang, it's a wrap for everyone. I'm turning Ba Sing Se into dust with no more walls. The level of disrespect was too real
8:26 don't know if you've noticed but all water tribe people are brown
It's just a different culture and heritage
They all have brown skin colour, it's not tan
FYI : Long Feng voice actor is the same voice actor of Mr. Crab, and Lex Luthor from Superman Animated Series
Book 2 is my fav
And this episode takes it up a notch to a whole new level
But yes, it gets even better i promise you
There are a few very specific episodes where the "this is not a kids show" line fits best and this is one of them... I look forward to your reactions to the other episodes 🤭
Fun fact for you guys just like Jason Isaac voiced Admiral Zhao, Long Feng was voiced by Clancy Brown who's also the voice actor for Mr. Krabs
I know him better as Captain Hadley from The Shawshank Redemption!
A tan on Katara? bro that's her melanin 😭Water Tribe people are mostly based on Inuit people, besides a tan wouldn't be so weird as light reflecting on ice makes it 100 times worse
Replied on a similar comment but do just want to clear up saying "tan" was bad wording from me, I was just referring the her darker skin tone which I had no idea was actually accurate to who her character is based on
for some reason I really like the first Joo Dee's voice, it's like she has a slightly soothing lisp 11:39
Avatar came out before AOT was a thing. So AOT probably took inspiration from Avatar
Fun fact: long-fang's voice actor is the same guy who does mr. Krabs on SpongeBob 🤣🤣
I love how in avatar at first you think the firenation = Evli and everyone else is automatically good, but as you watch the show you see there’s good and bad people on both sides! Eventhough obviously the war the firenation started is unjustified
First time watching, I was surprised how quickly they made that clear for a show aimed at kids.
There is no war in Ba Sing Se. There is no genocide in Xinjiang. There is no repression in Hong-Kong. There is no war in Ukraine. There is no war withing the walls. Here we are safe
Avatar only ramps up. There might be a few less intense episodes every once in a while but it's only going to get more insane.
Since nobody knows about the war in ba sing se jet clam ther firebender dosnt do much ,they proply think that they being firebender so what .I know that some known but not everbody
Fun fact: if you Google "War in Ba Sing Se" it will come up with "Did you mean 'there is no war in Ba Sing Se?'"
Tan on Katara because water tribe is adapted from the Inuit people, and Inuit people have natural dark skin.
🤔🇵🇭 It's easier for most of us (or for all of us, but I just don't want to generalize all of us) to side with and for Uncle Iroh and Zuko than with and for Jet in this episode, because we knew who Uncle Iroh and Zuko are, what experiences and slow changes they've been through in the previous chapters, their more or less current state of neutrality in this still on-going Hundred Year War, and because they're Uncle Iroh and Zuko, two of our most beloved characters since and/or after Book 1 Water; but what if it's not the two of them, what if they're Fire Nation soldiers or other higher ranking soldiers, or military and/or armed forces officials, officers, or personnel of the Fire Nation, or what if they're Azula, Mai, and Ty Lee, who all or mostly are for or working for the Fire Nation, Fire Lord Ozai, and the Hundred Year War, including for the total invasion, colonization, siege, weakening, submission, subjugation, defeat, and/or control of Ba Sing Se, the largest and yet untouched city, city-state, state, territory, area, or place and the capital of the largest nation or kingdom, in both territorial size or area and population, in the whole Avatar World - the Earth Kingdom, and for the total success, victory, triumph, and/or supremacy of the Fire Nation over Ba Sing Se, the Earth Kingdom, and the whole Avatar World, then which side we will be on, with and for?
It's not really Jet nor still Uncle Iroh and Zuko who are the problems or real problems in their scenes in this whole episode, but the whole, organized system behind how Ba Sing Se currently works in those times under the Dai Li and Long Feng in this whole episode. The latter is the real problem.
👋🏼😄🇵🇭
Buenas o hola, saludos, y buenas tardes desde aqui na Ciudad de Zamboanga, Filipinas!
Hello/hi/haló o kumustá, pagbatì, at magandáng hápon muláng sa Lungsód/Siyudád ng Zamboanga, Pilipinas!
Hello/hi, greetings, and good afternoon from Zamboanga City, Philippines!
HELL YEAHH LETS GET IT - love the ba sing se arc
The guy who plays Long Feng is the same voice actor for Mr Krabs in SpongeBob LOL
And the Kurgen in Highlander, and the prison guard iñ Shawshank redemption. He's a fantastic performer
1:30 the first and last time anybody has ever said those words
1:32 "I love Ba Sing Se" said no fan of this show ever.
There are no gun violence in the USA.
Long Feng is voiced by Clancy Brown (Mr. Krabs, Lieutenant Anderson) hes a great VA
Great reaction, loved how much you enjoyed how crazy this city is, and how well done the storytelling is! IMO, the show is either equal to, or better than this episode from here on out. I’d say maybe a couple in the 3rd season aren’t AS good, but still amazing. Seeing this show in it’s entirety is life changing, good luck!
There’s no war in ba sing se!
1:50 MY LOVELY
YOU CAN DO IT JOO DEE
6:04 took me years to realize he just said professor Zei
The Head of Anthropology
7:15 what??
11:40 HANG IN THERE
LOVE YOU JOO DEE
12:03 and I always feel awful for her
Lol both Joo Dee and Jet are in the right
12:28 like that
12:32 lol you say "bro" but they _are_ firebenders
Long Feng = Mr. Crabs
15:20 yeep, now is becoming creepier than it is. Remember "there is no war in Ba Sing Se"
There is no war in Ba Sing Se
Be wary of government agencies with bland, undescriptive names like 'Ministry of Cultural Heritage,' especially in fictional series. Many times, that's where a lot of very shady things take place.
Eternally confused why people almost always think Zuko would body Jet as if his performance in his episode wasn't world class and as if they didn't have identical skill in the Serpents Pass.
Jet's whole this IS fighting as a non- bender.
To be fair to Jet...he was right about what he saw. Even if we know that Zuko and Iroh aren't trying to cause trouble, firebenders are generally a force of evil.
Not faulting you guys for hating though! He's definitely a pain in the ass lmao
4:47 I think the word you're looking for is "propaganda"
15:36 I thought you said “AANGxiety” at first 😂
Was the word you were looking for “dystopia”?
Welcome to Soviet Union, here you are safe, here, you are free)))
Utopias always have a dark side they don't want anyone to see.... Anyone
It isnt exactly dictatorship, not even close
Katara doesn't have a tan broo she's a brown native girl lolol
i like how their eyes are the same colour as their hair. just an observation
The voice of the guy reactor with glasses is so handsomeeeeee
You’re looking for the word indoctrination
It gets so much better.
"Is this the peak?" we're not even there yet lmao
Avatar only keeps getting better and better. That's why I think it's widely considered America's greatest animated series... which is ironically about asianesque culture LOL
petition to make those glasses permanent
Ba sing seh, IMO is a separatist, authoritarian regime.
It seems to have influences from North Korea and China.
I don't think kitara's "tan" is a tan. The water tribes are modelled after Inuit people, so their skin is naturally darker.
The sunlight can be very strong in places like the north/south pole, and snow reflects sunlight constantly, so yes, you could also get a tan.
By “separatist”, I think you mean “isolationist”.
Maybe Soviet Union too, same shit
One does not merely pop in on Mordor.
"Nobody Believe You" 😱
Imagine the adult version of the Netflix Avatar series of Ba Sing Se.. The first Ju Dee would be dead.
Season two is the best bro
my man took like 10 sips im a row without putting it down lmao
that's Ba sing se for ya
You guys need to start doing 2-3 episode reactions especially for the season 3 finale youll get way more views !
There is no war Ba Sing Se
long feng is also lex luthor in the justice league shows
(and also mr. krabbs)
Katara's character is based on Inuet/Eskimo people they are tan skinned also sokka and their father all the water tribe
Jet immediately starting a fight, then when he gets his butt kicked he’s like “theyre trying to silence me!!”
Zuko: "This kid claims we're Fire Nation soldiers, I better show everyone how skillful I am with dual swords not to raise suspicion". 🤣I know how Zuko is and it's in character, but I always find it funny. He should just let the authorities handle it. A skillful swordsman working in a tea shop does look suspicious to me.
To be fair with that burn scar he looks like a former soilder.
for a kid’s show to allude to stuff like social credit and censorship 😩💖
Joo Dee🤔
John Doe
In retrospect, it's kind of weird that the Gaang (and specially Sokka) took the political situation of Ba Sing Se so personally.
If it was me, I would have been like "ok Long Feng. Since you are the one managing everything, how about we talk about how you can get all the glory of defeating the Fire Nation? I don't really care about corruption or anything like that."
I think Sokka was trying to go for that angle initially but Long Feng dismissed his plan before he even got to say it. TBH Long Feng was probably also too upset to hear the plan since the Gaang tried to sidestep Joo Dee and by extension him within one day.
🔥❤️
❤
Not tryna spoil anything but this series gonna get so much better
Lol y’all thought this was a kids show at first😂😂😂
I can't wait for team avatar to finally meet the king
Cant wait for the next one
It’s…. It not… it’s not a tan…
It’s her Skin pigment… like bro..
the guy on the right seems like he has seen the show before. I might be wrong but almost every reaction I've watched from this channel made me feel that way.
I can assure you I haven't, I do make a crap ton of guesses tho which I admit during edits even I'm a bit shocked how many are accurate lol
@@TGLReacts okay cool, I can start enjoying the reactions again :D
@@TGLReacts ur just like me cursed with accurate guessing of shows. when i see a new show with friends i always guess wats gonna happen next and it happens exactly as i said it would and they would be mad that i saw it before and wat not. i always laugh when this things happen.its just i have seen so many shows i can guess wat happens next better than most people lol
I'm pro-Jet in this episode; two warmongers gaslighting him, one who was just robbing earth kingdom citizens, not just the rich.
I don't support his unhealthy obsession or generally the harassment of people trying to change their lives/being so assumptive of others morality just because of whatever group they belong to.
But in this episode I feel bad for Jet
Dude they literally didn't do anything to him and he attacked them without provocation. Even though they did bad things, they are trying to start a new life since it was made obvious they can never go home.
They didn't gaslight Jet, they were defending themselves from an unprovoked attack. So he deserved to get arrested for that, not to mention wrecking their bosses shop.
It’s funny how no1 mentions Zuko bending blue flames when he’s fighting Jet.
Supposedly only Azula could but for afew seconds so does Zuko. Check out 11:08 time stamp.
Zuko did not fire bend. It's not funny
That was just a bit of visual flare for the sake of the animation.
Tan on Katara makes sense
primeira. hahahaha
do brasil???
@@mendezmando23suddenlycaralho???
@@mendezmando23 yes
