atla ladies + iconic quotes
The Blue Spirit putting out firebending with a bucket of water is the absolute funniest thing ever done in avatar combat. It just is.
katara: *kicks zuko’s ass without even blinking* zuko:
I literally just watched this episode, and I’m sorry, but there’s one thing funnier:
Zuko couldn’t speak during this whole fight/escape in case someone recognized his voice. Can you imagine the frustration he must have felt having to go through an entire fight without yelling? Zuko???
Especially while dealing with Aang’s shenanigans?!?!?!
One of my favorite parts of rewatching the episode is imagining everything that must have been going through Zuko’s head during that escape.
Aang: Wait! My friends need to suck on those frogs!
Zuko, trying not yell out of anger and confusion:
It gets funnier when you think that he could absolutely, no problem go through a battle without yelling once, as seen here and yet chooses to be a dramatic gay and holler at the top of his lungs at every opportunity.
That says a lot about how he firebends vs how he fights with the dao blades.
He actually can’t, at this point, fight without yelling if he’s using firebending. In The Firebending Masters, he says he’s been relying on anger and rage to fuel his bending, so yeah, in every firebending fight, he’s drawing on rage and hyping that up by yelling. Someone has pointed out that after he finds the original source of firebending, he stops yelling all the time - I haven’t checked that personally but it does seem accurate.
But he doesn’t need to draw on fury to firebend when he’s the Blue Spirit. He can fight in total silence when he’s working with a weapon he’s more in touch with, when he doesn’t need to draw on hate or anger to fuel it.
I love when there’s a really bending heavy episode because you just KNOW Sokka is about to get the dumbest C plot
They stuck that boy in a hole for 22 minutes
local earthbender calls fire lord slurs
bonus:
how the fuck did the fire nation beat fucking anyone their element can't do shit to any of the others
shoot fire at an airbender? they blow fire back in your face now you got burn face
a waterbender sends a wave at you and you defend with fire? congrats dipshit now you've turned that attack into steam in your eyes at best or boiling water on your skin at worst
you throw fire they throw rock you get hit with hot rock war over
Literally the only way the fire nation fought enemies was with slow technological veachiles (drills and air boats) and fucking AMBUSHING PEOPLE. AND IT WAS MAINLY AMBUSHING CIVILIANS (against the Geneva Convention). The fire nations army is full of war criminals
You think they have the Geneva Convention in ATLA? They don’t even have Geneva.
“…Destiny is a funny thing.”
Royal Firebenders + Stars: Azula
This time, it's Azula with a high mass star! Some exist in the main sequence, but others are massive enough to break off into the larger classes. Examples include Sigma Orionis, Zeta Ophiuchi, and Spica (blue giant).
Iroh is up next!

Mike and I are heading up a new studio dedicated to expanding the Avatarverse. Here’s our quote from EW.com (link for the full article):
“It’s hard to believe it’s been 19 years since we created Avatar: The Last Airbender. But even after all that time, there are still many stories and time periods in Aang’s world that we are eager to bring to life. We are fortunate to have an ever-growing community of passionate fans that enjoys exploring the Avatarverse as much as we do. And with this new Avatar Studios venture we have an unparalleled opportunity to develop our franchise and its storytelling on a vast scale, in myriad exciting ways and mediums. We are exceedingly grateful to Brian Robbins and Ramsey Naito for their enthusiasm and respect for the Avatar property and us as its stewards. From the start, they’ve supported our ambitious plans and created a positive, proactive environment for us. We’re excited to be back at Nickelodeon where Avatar began, doing what we do best in the biggest way possible. We can’t wait to build the great teams and productions to make all of this fantasy a reality.” – Bryan Konietzko & Michael DiMartino
