Welcome to Gaia! ::

So how many of you watch this show?

I've been watching it since season 1 and it's getting real good at season 3.

I love this show. I own the first season on DVD, and I plan on buying the second season once I have more expendable cash. The cast is amazing, and it keeps getting better every season. I had though Aang was my favorite character; he's cute and funny, but also sad. He doesn't want to be the Avatar, but he has to do it since he's the only one. But then in season 2 I met Toph... she is just pure awesome. Her blind jokes make me laugh.

I like how the characters follow an archetype (young hero and so forth) without getting too stereotypical. Like, there is no token female character that is just silly and kind of useless. Toph and Kittara are strong, intelligent, and full of depth. And even on the Fire Nation side, Azula's crazy, but she's kind of running the show as far as her brother is concerned.

I thought that was a good episode (even if I did think it was a little ridiculous that he finished his training in two days, but oh well). Sokka's the one with the plans, and he's the one that keeps them laughing. It doesn't seem like much in comparison to the abilities of the others, but if Sokka wasn't around they wouldn't know what to do, and all of those great abilities wouldn't matter.

Ha ha yeah.

Argh. This week's episode was kind of lame... I really don't like Zuko pairing up with Mae.

You're right.. I think I'm mostly bothered by the Zuko/Mae pairing, mostly because I think Zuko is just doing this as a matter of convenience, because it is what the people around him would expect and want him to do.

I did like the character development, though the only one I had thought of as actually evil was Azula. And Zuko's conflicted character was already made apparent in, I think, the second episode, when he went to see Iroh in jail. He was obviously looking for Iroh to say something that would give him a reason to believe that he had made the correct decision by helping Azula.

I've always like Tai Lee (is that how you spell it?). Though, I don't know why she likes Azula so much; the girl basically threatened her life unless she joined in the Avatar hunt.

And despite her confession, Azula is still a very discomfiting character. (She even agrees that she's a monster.) I still think she had another motive behind asking Zuko to help her, besides wanting his help in the fight.

(A little bit late but) I really enjoyed the last episode. It revealed so much about the past, and cast some light on Zuko's troubled character.

I finally got around to catching up on the episodes I'd missed. God, Zuko's adorable.

I wish they would air more of the episodes... I got really spoiled by that 10 episodes in a row thing they did for the first half of the season.

Okay, so 14 and 15 have leaked to the interwebs since Nickelodeon is silly and releasing episodes on DVD before they hit the air waves. So I wonder--should i cheat and watch it now, or torture myself be patient and wait until July...
