These episodes seem REALLY short. I guess I'm used to watching programs with hour-long episodes.



So, The Boiling Rock and the Southern Raiders were AMAZING. I'm glad Katara and Zuko were able to resolve their problems (and I'm glad Katara's back in character and not acting like a preteen). And, OMG, Ty Lee and Mai finally kicked Azula's ass. YEAHHHH.

Also, where the fuck is Iroh? We need some Dragon of the West, stat.

Now I'm actually getting sad that the series is almost over. :'( I knew this would come, but since I'd lost most of my interest I didn't think I'd get all that emotional. Expect me to be in tears Saturday night at 9 o'clock. (though it won't be as teary as when I finished HP7.) It's kind of hard to believe it's almost over because this season has been so chopped up and weird. It makes me all nostalgic and shit to think back to the times when I was a part of the fandom and all I could think about was OMG NEW AVATAR ON FRIDAY and I spent most of my Gaia time in the ATLA thread and got pissed at the stupid people that resided there (and had spectacular conversations with the awesome people). Then there was all the guessing about what was going to happen with the show, and theories and the chats about CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT and of course, the ship warz (which I do not miss at all). And then, there was Jet/Zuko madness, and then Jet DIED and I was all WTF U CAN'T DO THAT. (I'm of the opinion that he's going to show up during the finale. I know it. Really. SERIOUSLY.) And I remember when we were all OMG THREE MONTHS IS SUCH A LONG WAIT between seasons 1 and 2 (Season 1 finale is still my favorite), then there was the wait for Secret of the Fire Nation and the spoiler madness surrounding that. SDFGHJKL THIS IS MAKING ME SAD. :( I am a nostalgic sap.

I'm going to have to find some other fandom to froth over. Suggestions? Thoughts on the last couple episodes?

I love how Sokka has grown. He's so much more mature, and his actions in The Boiling Rock really proved that. He'll always be my favourite.

I like how Katara is finally able to heal. I think she needed to let go of a lot of her anger, and I'm so glad she can relax around Zuko now. However, that little "I guess you just didn't love her like I did" towards Sokka was a low blow. I understand she was hurt, but damn!

I miss Iroh. Did the actor die before they could finish the series, or was it after? That's the only reason I can think of, as to why he's not in these episodes.

Iroh's voice actor, Mako, died halfway through the making of season 2. Mako was replaced by a man who worked very closely with him for years (and who therefore can mimic his voice exactly), and has been voicing Iroh since the last few episodes of season two.

I love Sokka too. :) He's always been a great, unique character--I don't recall ever seeing someone like him in any other series, cartoon or live-action.

I just watched the Southern Raiders!!

Didn't you just love how gay Zuko was?!
"Do you want me to... chace you again *sexy look*"
SERIOUSLY hajshdadhadgs <3

I still get sad at how Jet gets mentioned and Zuko doesn't do anything ; ^;
maybe his heart breaks at every moment...

Also, I've stopped believing in zutara... Mai's proof of love was WAY too noble and beautiful to ignore ; ^; (I'm sure what pissed Azula the most was to see how her girlfriend betrayed her for her brother, and her other girlfriend liked the other girl better than her)... plus, Katara and Zuko looked just like ninja comrades.

Zuko/Jt will ALWAYS be my OTP ; ^;

Ditto to everything you said. Especially "Zuko/Jt will ALWAYS be my OTP". <333

Seriously, one of my life goals is to meet Mike and Brian and be all WHY NO JET/ZUKO LOVE? WHY? After I worship them.

I only recently saw The Southern Raiders on YouTube, and, I must say, I thought it was great. Damn, Katara's a real BAMF (Zuzu's reaction when she used bloodbending on the captain of the ship was priceless), and I, too, like that she is acting more mature.
