I'd say finding out about the comet and how the air benders ended up was when the show truly shifted into a darker story making every episode tense knowing time wasted would leave the fire nation ready for invasion.
That's definitely a fair take. Seeing Monk Gyatso's corpse with all of those firebender corpses was definitely a dark tone shift. I think Book 2 and Ba Sing Se specifically just seemed to focus more on the darker and more twisted aspects of the story than Book 1 as a whole
Zuko getting sick from doing a good deed was hilarious but somehow heartbreaking at the same time for me as a kid
I love how much nuance is introduced in the Ba Sing Se arc. The “right” side is still capable of corruption and evil. And that idea is carried over to book three, in which we learn that the majority of people on the “wrong” side are just innocent civilians trying to get by
Yup. It does a great job of exploring moral gray areas. Book 2 is like a slow build with an amazing pay off and season 3 is like a crazy roller coaster ride. Both are great to watch and amazing in their own right
I don't think Zuko's arc would have been as good if he decided to join team Avatar the first chance he had. Also, I think as an alternate ending he would have gotten emprisoned by Azula with how everyone on Team Avatar was nerfed that fight lol
In hindsight with knowing the full scope of the story after book 3, I agree. But watching it for the first time in the moment it was the most frustrating thing I had ever seen lol
@@chillreview636 Also you should make a Season 3 vid
I only watched Avatar like five years ago. I remember it randomly airing at one time when I was a teen and it was Bumi going down a giant slide and I was like I aint watching this its too silly. Years and years later, the internet wouldn't shut up about the lesbians in Korra so I thought man lets see that first show. The show itself is very foggy in my memory by now but Iroh telling Zuko pride is not the opposite of shame it is its source had me sitting down thinking like damn thats deep. So yeah Im here for talking about Avatar but I need to rewatch that stuff.
Hahaha love how Lesbians in a spin off series got you interested in the show. But yeah, ATLA has aged like a fine wine silliness and seriousness in equal amounts.
I think the heroes losing here (and again on the day of black sun) is a big part of what makes Avatar so iconic. It makes the final victory seem so impossible that when it finally happens, it's deeply cathartic. Not many shows manage to maintain that feeling of desperation right to the end and I think the only other work of media that manages it as well as Avatar is Lord of the Rings.
Couldn't agree more. It was one of the few shows from my childhood that reminded me constantly that failure is a possibility.
Iroah fire bending from his mouth was a visual of how he got his nick name "Dragon of the West"
Definitely good video here. I definitely look forward to more of your thoughts on this show. This one and legend of Korra are my all time favorites
Holy shit man, you did it again with another banger. First off, I can’t even begin to express how excited I was to see that you made a video on one of my all-time favorite shows. "Avatar" taught me so many things that I have baked into my character as an adult. The morals that I learned from this show are unmatched.
Secondly, I loved the perfectly timed meme clips, the background music, and the universal/galactic backdrop that played behind the video. Third, you are one of the smallest TH-camrs that I follow, but easily you are in my top 5 creators that I’ve watched over the 10 years I’ve had my account. I always watch your videos through from start to finish so you get the maximum viewer retention.
I would love to see more videos on "Avatar," and if I were to recommend another show it would be "Regular Show." "Boondocks," "Avatar," and "Regular Show" are my top 3 favorite animated shows, and I have a significant portion of my personality and morals grounded in the lessons I learned from them. It’s fantastic to see someone like yourself hold shows like these in such high regard and to speak on them with so much compassion and respect.
Keep doing what you’re doing because I love it.
That's means a lot man. It's wild to hear you hold my videos in such high regard, but I really ppreciate it.
And you definitely have great taste shows. I've only seen a fee episodes and famous clips from Regular Show, buts it's definitely something I need to invest some time into watching because I've only heard good things
Jesus Christ i love this show, this video made me go back & watch another episode ive seen 4x already
Great video! Avatar is one of my favorite shows as a kid. I still remember watching it week to week trying to get caught up on the story. Your content is great and I’m surprised you’re not more popular. Thank you for what you do.
Ayy!! Thanks for showing love. Always cool to see people who grew up loving the same things I did.
Honestlyyy an amazing analysis! Book 2 has to be one of my personal favorite seasons of ATLA. So seeing how passionate u we’re about this season as well feels sooo gooodd
First video I've seen on your channel and it was an amazing review. Great work man 👏🏻
Im so glad u feel this way ab book 2 too cuz most people i talk to says book 3 is the best season. While book 3 is def a great season, book 2 just covers so many important aspects of the show that BUILDS up book 3. Book 3 wouldnt be what it is without book 2 and it ending with the heroes losing is literally one of the best things u can do for a story. Overall book 2 just EATS so bad that nothing is holding a candle to it. (Also azula carried the show)
Yup. I agree 1000%.
I LOVE this show! I FINALLY viewed the entire series this year after purchasing the series on Blu-ray for my birthday in 2012; it was WORTH the wait!!! Can't wait to hear your observations on the series!
P.S.
I love the esoteric symbolism in the series, too; to call this a cartoon is an insult; it is truly an "animated series".
It really is a masterpiece
This video was amazing you hit all the right spots!!! I would love to see a video about book 3 or the legend of korra
i been binging avatar contents, keep up the good work!!
Ol’ chill ass review
You know the vibes
I agree, this was the most full arc in the show, Esch episode helped build it up
Great video would love to see more of you talking about this series and it’s sequel
Korra video just dropped today
@@chillreview636 just saw it in my feed
will check it out!
When Aang got Shoted by Azula it was one of the Most Shocking moments to me as a KID.
Same. My jaw was on the floor for a good 10 minutes after that
That two year wait for book three was crazy as a kid
So true, but it paid off in a HUGE way cuz book 3 is amazing
A retrospective on the Legend of Korra would be dope. I agree that the show gets some undue hate, and it's actually pretty good upon revisiting
I could definitely see myself making some kind of retrospective on Korra. Definitely one of the most over hated shows
now u gotta do season 3 cmon. i get that u only wanted to focus on S2 but yer analysis and commentary bangs. some new age stuff that isnt corny or too gen-z (being one myself)
Happy to hear you like the videos. I definitely have a lot more to say about the show as a whole (book 3 especially) but I wanted to throw this out there to see if people would be into it. The feedback has been pretty positive so far.
I definitely enjoy Book 2 a lot but I have always enjoyed Book 3 the most. Got a good mix of the side quests of Book 1 and the drawn out storylines of Book 2
Yeah Book 3 is amazing in it's own right. Definitely respect anyone who has it as their favorite
Always great too see Avatar the Last airbender get some more love and attention it deserves
Have you ever seen, in a serie or movie, where a good person does something bad for the first time? Once broken out of balance the mind body and soul can be heavily disturbed (by itself).
It still sounds funny, even when going 180 on the subject. But whatch Karen Page, from daredevil, make her first kill, that aint gonna make you smile i promise!!! 😂
Everything in this show is just peak.
1:41
"Sponge Bob"?!!!!?
You HAVE to be jesting!
Sacrilege!
I think I'm having a heart attack!!!!
4:34
Shades of AmeriKKKa...
Hahaha @ 1:41 I was a just a dumb kid back then. Cut me some slack.
And yeah, i wanted to draw a direct comparison to the US in the video, but I figured it would be better to let people reach their own conclusions.
Great vid!!!!
Thank you brotha!
The best szn in my opinion. Def glad I gave it a chance after all these years
It's still 🔥 damn near 20 years later
This show had a generational run on Netflix
Facts!!
Season 2 and 3 are so amazing.
Azula was about dat life. I love her!
Facts!!!
Thank you some Korra Appreciation, season 3 carries the whole show for me that's where it truly ends
Love to see a fellow Korra Enjoyer out in the wild lol. I've had a half baked video about book 3 of Korra for a few months now. Might have to finally go ahead and finish it.
@@chillreview636 Trust me when I say I'll 100% before here for it 🔥
I'm always down for avatar videos
im down for more avatar videos
Great! More avatar videos coming then
hey um are you still gonna check out legends of Chaimberlain heights
Yes
Ah yes ba sing se tbe police state that keeps the people ignorant on outside issues.
Though that's the question as they literally let in war refugees all the time so people should know that an active war is happening. I mean we even know some groups that never appear again are there plus jet and co who are child soldiers.
Guess the dai lee worked overtime. But i did love the palace invasion part. That was so high action.
I always assumed that most people within the city did know about the war but were forced to act ignorant out of fear of the Dai Lee and Long Feng.
I’d appreciate a good video about the good parts of Korra. Just not sure I can agree that it has any good parts at all tbh. I hate how it breaks ATLA canon so recklessly and how the fights are transformer and laser bs
Not sure I'll ever understand how fans of ATLA aren't also fans of LOK lol. It's not as good as Atla for sure, but it has a bunch of great moments and characters
@@chillreview636 Moments, sure. Regarding characters, I don’t see anyone even remotely close to any of the main characters of ATLA
It also doesn’t help that I strongly dislike Korra. She seems entirely incompetent, annoying, and basically just stumbles upon solutions instead of actually doing anything
For example, she just happens to decide to be a creep and listen in on that one factory owner’s conversation and just so happens to accidentally discover some secret plot. I literally can’t even describe that in more detail, it wasn’t interesting enough to stick
i love this video please make more
Will do!
drop more avatar content!!
Definitely will
Please do more avatar bro🙏
Definitely will. Thanks for watching!
Yooooo this whas🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A small support comment :)
Azula is a psychopath.
Yes. One of the most well written psychopaths ever. Her fall from grace/descent into madness is one of the best character arcs in the show to me.
Good review I really enjoyed this show
Ayyyyyy
Momo a FAN 😂
"Lemme hear you say MomoHo!!"
