Great episode that one, one of the darkest yet I agree...

Just worth mentioning here (for anyone who genuinely cares), it appears the two part special 'Day of Black Sun Parts 1 and 2' was hacked from a Nick toons file server. It hasn't aired yet in the US or the UK, so if you've watched it it's the plundered version.

EDIT: You can read more about the whole sorry affair here.

To some people the only thing that matters is that they watched them. Me? I still need to catch up with the episodes.

stjeppe · 2007-11-11, 19:28

oops didn't know the background story ...
i just ran a search and came up with it...

konstargirl · 2007-11-11, 19:32

Ahh. I sort of liked avatar, but now I'm getting bored of the cartoon though but it is a cute show.

I was wondering, is Avatar is really an anime?

servidor · 2007-11-11, 19:49

Anime is term that Japanese use to refer to any animated show, not just the ones they produce. But if you want to tell them apart, then it is not anime. Of course Japanese outsource many of they shows to Korea, just like Avatar and many other shows in the US.

Guardian Enzo · 2007-11-25, 15:00

The first invasion ep was everything I'd hoped for, thought of course the requisite cliffhanger was a bitch. As it had to be, this was when Sokka came to the forefront - the whole thing is his baby, after all. If you like his character this is as good as the show gets.

Neki Ecko · 2007-11-25, 18:57

I have to say is that both eps of the Invasion was very good, indeed and

And besides - how many shows can say they've had guest appearances by The Rock and Serena Williams?

Nina_Wang · 2007-12-01, 18:53

I got into this series when the second episode had aired. If only i was there for the first. i got to watch the first episode anyways a few days later because they said the show was bran new. they had been doing a three day airing of the same first 2 episodes for 3 days. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday it was. When the 3rd episode aired i thought Momo was Adorable and now I'm stuck watching the series ever since.

Book 3: Earth is such a disappointment compared to Book 1 + 2. The humor is terrible and there's so much fanservice (Katara and Aang). The 11th episode highlighted how terrible the season is.

Spoiler:

Mistacloudstrife · 2007-12-17, 12:13

I think Book 3 was focusing more on Aang's mental growth rather than his growth in strength.(in terms of the elements) Since book 2 ended with Aang's mentality as an Avatar being torn to shreds, I think it's natural for him to go through some character growth afterwards. And if it takes an entire season to do that, then so be it.

KholdStare ISML Technical Staff Graphic Designer Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: Phoenix, AZ Age: 35	Spoiler for major plot spoilers: Well that was just wonderful. I don't think any action/adventure anime can even compare right now. Of course it was kinda obvious that the invasion would fail in some way (it's only halfway through the book) and while I was disappointed, I was still amazed by the plot progression and the animation. I haven't had this much fun watching animation of this type of genre recently, and it was very fun. When a serious turn an antagonist into someone who's likable, they usually don't do it very well and you end up hating that person anyways (or that's how I feel most of the time). Zuko, however, I love him, and I used to very much hate him. Like Guardian Enzo said, this could as well be Zuko's story as well, and the main plots flow beautifully with excellent pacing. If I could give these episodes a rating, it would definitely be a 10/10. __________________ Kholdy's MAL, ISML Chat, Saimoe Blog, Saimoe Wiki

Guardian Enzo Seishu's Ace Author Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Kobe, Japan	Spoiler: Another "wow" ep for me - just outstanding. The Kataang faction must be worried now, since part of the reason for Katara's anger at Zuko is obviously their mutual attraction. This has been building since day one, really - Zuko's journey to find himself has been the common thread throughout three seasons, and it was always leading to Aang. But where will Iroh fit into the picture?
