New Avatar tonight

[Nightfall]

Truth,

Well hopefully now the kids get to fight Long Feng and the Dai Le. What concerns me more is the implications after this ep. Next up is the 2 part season finale featuring Azula trying something truly diabolic. (Man I hate that little sociopath. I mean I've had a few others I disliked but there's just something inherently wrong about that girl.) Plus the Guru probably starts handing out destinies. But most shocking (to me) Katara apparently hooks up with Zuko?!
Dude...

Yes, yes...there is so much 'wrong'. It's delicious

BUMP!!! Tonight's Avatar is new, the theme...'The Earth King'.

Oh whew. Was like SWEET! when I saw the thread title, but then awwww, when I saw the dates, and the SWEET! again when I saw this post. So much emotion in such a little time.

Dog,

I know it's a long wait between eps, but I think Dec 1 will be a huge Christmas treat for Avatar fans. Especially if that teaser was any indication.

But back to this ep. I knew when Sokka said "It's all smooth sailing from here!" something bad was going to happen. Little did I know how right I was. I figured Long Fei wasn't done, was only slightly surprised Toph got herself captured, but mostly was the end. Wow. I hated Azula before, but man she's damn devious! Make you realise just how well this show is written, that nothing is ever truly concidental. But I honestly didn't see that coming. I mean I figure we might see her but to have her show up like that...wow. Props Azula. No one can say you don't have conjones.

Missed the first few minutes due to scheduleing kookiness on Nick's part (started at 7:50 or somesuch).

"Long Feng is long gone... I've been waiting to use that one."

This felt much like Episode 1-18 "Waterbending Master" from last year, with being a set-up for the two-part season finale.

I give Aang credit for trying to tell Katara how he feels about her (curse Sokka's timing), but I think she got the message

As soon as the three Kyoshi warriors were mentioned, I suspected it was Ozai's Angels in disguise. And Sokka asked the EK to give them the royal treatment too.

And I'm sure all the Zuko fangrrls were in their glory at seeing him shirtless for most of the episode, even if they were momentarily scarred by seeing a bald Zuko with an arrow on his head.

December 1st can't get here fast enough...

Really cause that was the one that actually threw me. I mean I figured Long Fei and the Dai Lee weren't going to give up power that easily. Same with Toph getting captured. (I had thought it would be more like Mom showed up, tells Toph off and then has her daughter captured but eh...) But that whole thing Ozai's angels...never saw it. I hope though Suki's okay. It would suck royally if she was dead.

Amen to that! I want to see Aang go off on Azula. I mean if only because she's such a you know what...and she deserved to be knocked down a peg.

Well, after "Appa's Lost Days" and seeing the Avatar's "fan girls" getting their butts whomped (Suki's the only one that was really able to put up a fight), and then the guy saying that exactly three Kyoshi Warriors showed up at the gate, I just thought it was too much of a coincidence. As for Toph, I'm kinda glad that we might see some closure regarding those two bounty hunters.

I thought Aang's already knocked her down a peg, after the events of "The Drill." Like Mai said, they lost. And it was due (from their point of view) to a twelve-year old bald kid.

What would really bruise Azula's ego would be little Zuzu defeating her, or even using Iroh's lightning redirection trick on her.

You know, it sounds bad to get beaten by a 12 year old and if it was just any 12 year old, yeah that would be bad, but he's the Avatar and when you're the Avatar, it doesn't really matter how old you are: you're still tremendously powerful.

But also bear in mind Azula's character. She's a fourteen year old perfectionist that has always been "daddy's little angel," adored by countless members of the Fire Lord's court for being smart/powerful/cunning/etc. The first two times she confronted Aang, he escaped by virtue of the assistance of others; Bumi in "Return to Omashu", the unexpected appearance of Zuko and Iroh in "The Chase". But in "The Drill," it was Aang vs. Azula with nobody helping out, and Aang wasn't exhausted from running without sleep.

To someone with Azula's ego, getting bested by a twelve-year old boy has got to be pretty painful to swallow, Avatar or not.

I love this show. The last couple of episodes have had some great action scenes. I'm loving the big-scale earth bending.

So who's the poor earth bending janitor that has to go around and fix all this damage to the landscape? Maybe that's "Ole Sweepy's" job.
