20-something trying to sell stuff on eBay, Etsy, and FB until I can figure out why I kept passing out at work back when I was employed

Toph's reaction leaving the ring after meeting Aang isn't because she's upset at losing the title and belt to some no-name in an elementary school uniform. She probably felt more helpless and blind than ever, facing an Air Bender, and in the one place that was safe and hers.

Guy at the stall in the beginning of "Avatar Day" definitely heard this group of travelers talking about how they got raided and lost almost all their stuff, and now one of them was having an identity crisis, and was such a lad. "Yeah, I take water Tribe money! I love your distinctive look!" A bro ❤️

While I feel like the introduction to the Kiyoshi Warriors was kinda off in the remake, I do appreciate that it gave us the chance to see underlying preexisting sentiment in Suki (and therefore probably the other Warriors) that they wanted to help in the war, instead of a spontaneous off-screen move

Sokka calling Katara's hair "…hair… loopies" is a product of his pre-adventure sexism, because it was a girl thing (unlike his Warrior's Wolf Tail™) so why should he care?
Also, if Sokka's sexism has no fans, it means I'm dead. I will defend it if asked.

Water Tribe "hair loopies" are probably to give the face framing/ornamentation from under a hood without the hair actually becoming unruly or tangled. I mean, I know that's obvious, but I never thought about it being the intentional purpose, as a kid, and as an adult, it was just how things were.

I didn't think I'd need the ALT text on an image, but thank you so much for it, because I spent a little while trying to figure out what she was doing on that computer at her desk

Cat Gators aren't called Catfish Gators because they aren't fish

some fucker at the North Pole: "Okay, so first, you're gonna want to fly directly east from here,"

When Aang says "No, it's not over," in the Avatar State after the death of The Moon, it's not the pantheon of Avatar voices. It's Aang's and one other, a deep, almost husky masculine one. It was already (at least) heavily implied that he was being a conduit for The Ocean, but that was a nice touch.

Dang, I thought their swift defeat was a throwaway joke, but if the North's infiltration squad hadn't just burst in, they could have overheard Zhao's plan to assassinate the moon with enough time to deliver the message and fortify the area. But, the show DID portray them as not valuing intel 🤷

I did mean to mention in an earlier entry, but I appreciate the idea of there being physical written records to Zuko's voyage like his hunt is a real mission instead of it just being him and his unlucky crew marooned on the ship chasing smoke for three years, especially as only Zuko keeping with it.
November 20, 2025 at 4:27 AM
Moment of appreciation for Zuko's character arc in season one alone. We witnessed his transformation from angry loud outburst angsty to melancholic quiet brooding angsty, AND he was able to handle genuine affection and vulnerability from Iroh without being too irony-pilled or teenage-ly embarrassed.

I fully believe the sun was the first Firebender, but this was replaced fairly recently (in the 100-Years War) by the idea that it was dragons PURELY as an excuse to do the übermensch hunting BS. See: Jeong-Jeong's lessons, and juxtaposition against Water

The reprise of "Four Seasons" when Sokka volunteers to fight and looks at the tearful Yue, not just because it's a love song, but because it's echoing the "season" of peace coming to an end, a song we last heard RIGHT before we see Zhao amassing forces for that very invasion, that's cinema.
November 20, 2025 at 3:24 AM
The black snow is falling, and on their way to report the coming invasion to the king, Yue stops to friend-breakup with Sokka for political reasons. Girl has never been in real danger before in her conscious life. Tell me the North is peaceful without telling me "the North is peaceful."

Northern Water Tribe members are paler than their Southern counterparts because they get to be indoors more often. Like, more of their work seems indoors, compared to the South, and most of the leisure time we hear about (at any age) in the South is outdoors. Plus, "buildings that don't melt."

Kana passing onto her daughter, then granddaughter, the necklace that represents her resistance to a sexist denial of autonomy, and her willpower to face the world head on BY herself as she creates a new life FOR herself, even if Katara initially thought it was just an heirloom. Understated.
November 20, 2025 at 3:10 AM
I know they can't curse because it's TV-Y7 or something, but I think it adds to it. Zuko keeping quiet the moment he realizes he's about to be blown up because he's grown into a warrior's decorum. Yue's giddy "Oh. My. GOODNESS!" because she's a polite, refined princess. Aang using old timey slang. 👌

The Tale of Two Lovers being done in that etched-stone style fits both the location *and* harkens back to the historical murals of the Air Temples.

Also, not saying I prefer this, or would prefer the opposite, but it is INCREDIBLY FUNNY that this time we somehow heard EVEN LESS of "Secret Tunnel."
November 19, 2025 at 11:27 PM
Zuko still being very culturally Fire Nation, but just because that's where his dad and former life are, but because like we see with Original!Mai, he grew up hearing of Fire Nation greatness and that culture being worthy of this supremacy, of "honorable" battle and duty through effective service

Omashu Action Speedrun
• Bystander assaulting Zuko not for being Zuko, but for hitting a child
• The fabric fight
• Return to the delivery system for a staked action sequence
• Is this the only time the cabbage cart was burned down??
• Showcased that the Omashu mail does indeed get delivered on time

I'm glad that Katara got a chance to talk about Kya *outside* of her death, and was encouraged to remember how she was in life. Good for us, the audience, to empathize (without making us stop seeing it as, "Well yeah, she's their mom. I'd feel the same."), and Katara honestly could use the therapy.
