I've waited so long for this show to arrive :o!!! I LOVED Avatar: The Last Airbender (not the movie, oh god what did they do...)


i personally never watched the cartoon but love the movie i thought it was brilliant actually was shocked to see people critiquing it, the bit at the end when he protects everyone and accepts his role as avatar by building a wall of water was amasing literally had me welling up, and the charachters seemed very rich in depth even if they all didnt have much face time on screen perhaps.

(Decided never to watch a live action of a cartoon again after I tortured myself with the Dragonball one.)
I thought Dragonball (movie) was wicked, but then again, I've only watched like three episodes

I drew Naga.


I've so far been not as nerdy excited over this show as I was with ATLA. Then again I've been busy obsessing over other things. I do love watching the posts roll in on the internets when the show is on. Fans are my favorite part.

If you watch the series you'll lose all respect for the movie after you're done... or even after episode 3.

nice! personally i think the show is great, it has the same quirky charm. what makes it great imo, is that it's a continuation while being a whole different story.

I didn't really care for the most recent episode, it was just kinda cheesy and felt like filler. If they had done it closer to the end of the season I think I might've cared about the characters a little more, but right now it just felt really forced, like they're trying too hard to appeal to the "shipping" crowd.

I'll be disappointed if most of the series ends up being about melodrama, so hopefully they've gotten that out of the way for now.

I kinda concur. I jump onto various ships but what episode are we on..5? characters are still being introduced..you cant start shipping this early..thats just silly talk.

I love Avatar, and am really excited to watch the sequel series.

As stated before, you don't have to be a weeaboo or interested in anime at all to like this show. In fact, I'm not so far from having judgmental opinions of people that love anime simply because it's anime like that other thick-skulled poster two pages ago, but I still like this show. Anime or not, good TV is good TV.

Avatar reminds me of Golden Sun: The Television Series, and as that was one of my favourite video games, this series is among my favourite television shows.

I hope consoles that utilize motion technology like Kinect don't limit themselves to simple, utter gimmick games and instead flesh out games like this. Like the idea in this recent Cracked article:

http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-6-greatest-video-games-well-never-get-to-play/

I hope the 'Magic the Gesturing' idea is used in a game like Golden Sun or Avatar, or others where spells are cast with your body in this way. Not simply gesturing with your hands as that article describes, but your whole body, essentially performing standing martial arts forms in order to attack your opponent. It would take true expertise from actual practice to perform the greatest abilities, especially while focusing on defending yourself like the idea in the article.

I find the choreography of the series is so well done. Fight scenes in martial arts inspired animation have come a long way since shows like Dragon Ball Z, where (possibly due to unavailable technology and limited budget & access) the battles had to be depicted with verbal drama in order to raise the suspense level to captivate the viewer. Now these shows can instead captivate their audience with well-choreographed movements and a true-to-life method of summoning elemental powers with martial chi.

Also Japanimation is just a word used to describe cartoons coming from Japan when they first were becoming popular in the West. There's nothing wrong with the word, it isn't really ignorant is it?

Its name is very self-explanatory. To someone in the '80s having the origins of a cartoon described to them by another person who was more knowledgeable on the subject, it is a fine word.

/scratches head.

to put it simply: no, it's a word used by ignorant people, always has been.

to most the phrase "I don't need no bag" is "fine" but it's still wrong.

and neither of these shows are anime.

Seriously arguing semantics.

Nothing ignorant about it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime#Synonyms

It's how Otacon would describe to someone like Snake his inspiration for designing Metal Gear. It's how people referred to it before the term 'anime' was popular or even coined, when anime itself was still barely popular anywhere but Japan.

It's ignorant to call someone who isn't up to date on their pop culture terminology ignorant.

it's very ignorant, your own words describe it as such.

and no it's not ignorant to call people who are ignorant ignorant, it's by definition what they are, they don't know: that makes them ignorant of it, just because you don't like the way it sounds doesn't change what it means.

"japanimation" is a term only used by those who are ignorant, and it should be treated as such.

I think I'll wait a few months and torrent the season, I have an odd schedule and I can't stream at home so I've already missed all but part of one episode, and I don't want to randomly catch some here and there.

I'll give props to Nickelodeon though, they've managed to produce two things of quality for the first time pretty much ever in my book.

(always hated the channel growing up).

I'm enjoying this new Avatar. But I want to see her actually train more. Ang was pretty much a constant next step in becoming the full on Avatar. Korra has just been about Pro Bending.

Air. Earth. Fire. Cabbage. Long ago the four nations lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the cabbage men attacked. Only the avatar, master of all three elements and vegetable could stop them. But when the world needed him the most, he turned into a carrot.

I feel this would be more fitting in this thread.
