Avatar: The Last Airbender Fan Club

Isn't the Avatar state really closely linked to your spiritual side, too? Korra's always struggled with that whereas Aang was always very close to that side. They're very different people at the core (well, okay maybe they are literally the same person at the core but you know what I mean!) and I think that has a great bearing on it. Korra mastered three whole elements with relative ease whereas Aang had to work his entire show for that and really only figured out firebending in the nick of time. Korra's only a few years older than he was, didn't have to train in a hurry, and is doing really well for herself. I don't think it's weird at all. If anything I thought she was going through everything a lot faster. :/

Spoiler:

Now the mastering of the Avatar state was something completely different. I understand Aang apparently gave her the powers to do it, though I feel like that was a really bad turning point. I had hoped that the second season would be about her regaining her bending powers and possibly her mastering the Avatar state, though the end ruined all hopes of that.

no, it's the new m. night shyamalan movie. O_o

My gosh, I cannot wait until Book 2 airs. I hope it air sometime in January, just because of reasons unknown xD But what I'm actually looking forward in this Book is more flashbacks, air scooters, more avatar state shenanigans (yip yip), and spirits. Yes, lots and lots of spirits, oh and don't forget the world traveling :]

What is your favorite animal crossbreed from the series?

Which Element do you think is the most lethal and dangerous during
combat?
It has to be Fire, it is why they were winning the 100 Year War. Firebenders have the ability to create flames from your palms just with just oxygen, your own heat (or the suns) and your energy. Wilst Waterbenders and Earthbenders need thier respective elements in order to fight (although higher skilled Wtaerbender may be able to draw water from the moisture in thier surroundings), and thier are few, if not none, Airbending techniques that would be able to kill an enemy and even than could the Airbender actually do it?
How about for survival?
That is a tough one, each element could adapt to thier surroundings for thier conveniance, Airbenders could soar through the skies looking for food and water given them a good chance of survival. Waterbenders could be able to filter out any dirty water they find to make it pure and refreshing, and again higly skilled Waterbenders could be able to turn water vapour in the air and water from the plants for themselves to drink. Earthbender would struggle to find food and water but they would be able build good shelters depending where they are located and could probably become good hunters. Firebenders would also have a hardtime as they could use fire to warm themsleves, although like Earthbenders they could use thier skills to hunt and cook thier meat. Overall i would have to say Waterbenders would be able to survive the longest.
What do you think was the saddest moment in either series?
During ATLA the saddest moment for me was 'The Tales of Ba Sin Sei' during the 'Tale of Iroh' segment where he gathered things for the birthday of his dead son, and also because it was dedicated to Mako. I am still getting chills writing about this.
For ATLK the saddest moment was where Tarrlok killed himself and Noatak (Amon) on the boat. Tarrlok couldn't stand his brother for what he had done to him and that Noatak wanted to them to become brothers again like nothing ever happened. I honestly still can't believe that Nickelodeon allowed this but i am glad that it was not censored.

What do you think was the saddest moment in either series?
This is going to sound extremely cliche, but whatever. This is the saddest moment in my opinion solely in LoK, so I'm not including A:TLA here. The moment when Beifong pleaded with Katara to restore Korra's bending. Not only had the avatar lost 3/4 elements, Beifong lost the only thing she had: Earth/Metalbending. She knew that if Korra's bending was restored, hers would be restored as well. The heartbreak and sadness in her eyes is just tragic.

Welcome New Members!

I think I might help yall out with a new topic:

Where in the Avatar world would you like to be able to visit the most and why?

The Crest Island in the Fire Nation.

Why?: Because I want to see Roku and Talk with him. D:

place to go...? let's see.....the library hidden in the desert. because I like to read. Let's just hope the Owl guardian there likes the Transformers comic I'm gonna give him....

GUYS WE CANT LET THIS DIE.
Ohh the Library seems like a cool place! Other than that I'd probably want to visit Ba Sing Se when it's normal, or one of the Air Temples when it was full of people.

Where in the Avatar world would you like to be able to visit the most and why?

I'd want to visit one of the air temples before the war. It just seems so awesome! SO peaceful, and breezy with flying bisons...
I'd also want to visit the Northern Water tribe, I think it could be really interesting and cool, ;) and I'd especially want to visit the little grotto.
Other than those two, I guess I'd like to visit Omashu, and take and awesome ride in one of the mail carts. Weeeeeeeeeee!

Welcome, all new members! Grab a chair and join in on some discussion while ye wait for new Korra episodes.

Where in the Avatar world would you like to be able to visit the most and why?
I'd like to visit the Spirit Oasis garden in the Northern Water Tribe. It's just a beautiful and peaceful area to be in (though I would have to brave through the cold first). God I miss this show. ;A;

Where in the Avatar world would you like to be able to visit the most and why?

It's been a while since I last watched through it all, so I'm having a hard time recalling most of the places, but in any case, it mostly boils down Republic City. There are lots of cool and awesome looking places to be, but a lot of them have been in winter areas, or have just been in the middle of nowhere which I'd have no idea where was, and though Republic City appears to be a mess at the current time, a lot of stuff seems to happen there, and it's like where all the fun stuff is taking place. I doubt it'd be hard to find people that'd help you get better at bending whatever element you have, granted you have one, and it's basically the first place that really comes to mind.

May I join? :3

I would like to visit..hmm..I'm not really sure. Maybe one of the places where the water tribes live. I'm sure there'll be quite a beautiful scenery there. Or maybe an air temple; I could ride on one of those air bisons. :) I haven't watched avatar for quite a while, so my knowledge of places is quite rusty. :/

I really love this show!! I first seriously started watching it online and I couldn't stop. I think I finished all 3 books in less than 5 days. It really is one of the best shows I have ever seen!

Earth Nation: Omashu :) I wanna see Aang's old friend and crack a few jokes with him x)
Fire Nation: Where Aang went to school. I wanna date that girl Aang talked to!
Water Nation: Northern Water tribe. I love the place! It looks so beautiful.
Air: Eastern Air Temple. I'd LOVE to ride a Bison <333

Hey folks, sorry for the delay. Glad to see there's interest as we wait patiently for Book 2. o/

@synerjee: Welcome to the club. :D If only we could take a sightseeing tour throughout the avatar world. There's so many beautiful locations and fun animal hybrids. :3

@Mononoke Hime: Welcome! I had to look up what first city you're referring to, but I agree, it is a peaceful place surrounded by mountains and waterfalls. It would be an honor to see the dragons too.

@Pinkish Purple: Thank you kindly for joining and welcome. I think we all pretty much want a round-trip vacation, gah! I like how ATLA focuses on traveling around the world while LOK focuses mostly on just Republic City. Both concepts have their merits, but no adventure is complete without taking a buddy along.

Here's a new topic then:
If you could meet any ATLA/LOK character, who would it be and why?

I would definitely want to meet the girl herself, KORRA! She's amazing, awesome, and funny! Also, super talented. From ATLA, it'd definitely be TOPH! Who wouldn't want to hang out with the world's greatest Earthbender and the first metalbender?
