Wow he beat disabled fire benders 🤯 You know this is a massive antifeat because this implies he couldn’t beat these fire nation fodders without an eclipse. 12 yo Toph>Bumi He really puts the « bum » in Bumi.
@@smtandearthboundsuck8400 i think thats might be slightly off. Because he didnt fight them because of the townspeople, but i think he could have defeated them he was just using neutral Jing, just like he told aang you need to wait and listen for the best moment to strike. Thats how i look at, but i do think toph is much stronger than Bumi
@@Squeekysquid not how he always was, because he was doing things that didnt settle right with him, all to meet his father's expectations, which is why he was always so angry all the time. he wasnt able to be his true self until finally joining Aang's team.
i'm sure it was intentional, to show how much Zuko's inner fire had calmed. for he has always been angry, impatient and on edge. it goes a LONG way with it having virtually no dialogue.@@MatthewJamesKalasky
Something worth noting in the Zuko/Iroh interaction; last time that Zuko was in such a position begging for forgiveness was with his father when he was younger during the Agni Kai with his father. When then begging for forgiveness he was met with violence and disfigurement. Iroh's immediate acceptance and forgiveness is not something that Zuko expected, having only met violence and abuse in the past when admitting to mistakes. Iroh has guided Zuko from the start of the series, not helping capturing Aang in Book 1, but not obviously standing in Zuko's way. As Zuko was abused from early age, Iroh's gentle guidance broke through to him as time passed.
Yes! And also the punishment Ozai dealt out was undeserved to the same degree as Iroh’s grace and forgiveness. I love this display of love and affection, especially between men since healthy masculine affection isn’t always shown in media
The title "the old masters" is threefold: Old masters of the gaang- Piandao, Jeong Jeong, Bumi, and Pako Past avatars: Roku, Kyoshi, Koruk, and Yang chen And an old master as in an ancient entity: The Lion Turtle
Everyone talks about the reunion, and for good reason, but the conversation at camp afterward is so underrated. Iroh helping and encouraging Zuko but letting the others choose their own path with just a little nudge is so Iroh, and shows how well he understands individual people. Iroh finding the true meaning of his vision just felt like such a payoff to a moment that could easily have been treated as a throwaway with no detriment to the story, and it makes me smile every single time. And, of course, the buildup of the music from them receiving their tasks to Iroh's final line of that scene made me want to stand up and cheer. This episode goes from heartfelt to poingant and anxious yet hype with a sense of fulfillment at the same time, in no small part thanks to the true payoff of Zuko's destiny after all he's suffered and it is absolutely masterful.
About Iroh's age: if you see those clips where he talks about burning down Ba Sing Se, his hair is still dark and he looks closer in age to his brother. I think losing his son might have aged him quicker
What I like about the past avatars advise is that they all said the same thing but justified through their own experiences and challenges. Not just say it for vibes or easy way out
In Leaves from the Vine the ending lines are "Little soldier boy, come marching home, Brave soldier boy, comes marching home." and the difference between "come" and "comes" is so heartbreaking. Lu ten is the little soldier boy hes begging to come home. Zuko is the brave soldier boy who DOES come marching home.
The lion turtle shows up many times in the show. It was shown in the episode of the Library aang sitting down looking at a scroll and says look at these lion turtle. Master pando sokka master has statues of them in his courtyard and he says like a lion turtle describing what type of person he is
8:05 just an extra tidbit to make Bumi even more badass(not like he needed it lol) dont forget that the Eclipse was only 8 minutes long, So Bumi was able to defeat everyone and take back his city in 8 minutes 🤩
Fun Fact: Toph and Bumi fought in the comics to determine once and for all the real best earthbender. I recommend you to read the comics, there are some good story arcs xD
One thing that I always look back on for this episode is that none of the Avatars tell Aang that he *has* to kill the Firelord. They just tell him to be decisive, do whatever it takes to protect the world, justice will bring peace, and other just general platitudes. Aang just interprets all of these things through the filter of "kill the Firelord" because he doesn't see any other choice.
I mean, Roku and Kuruk say "Make a decision" and Kyoshi says "Justice is necessary", which, while implying killing him, doesn't necessarily mean "kill him". But I honestly cannot read anything other than "kill him" in "Selfless duty calls you to sacrifice your own spiritual needs, and do whatever ot takes to protect the world"
@@nivircescrittore8304 hmm. It certainly leans heavily that way. But what I hear is, 'be desicive. Your morals don't necessarily mean that's the right choice.' And justice is also something subjective. 'What works for you, may not work for the world.' But it also could. Their lives needed the choices they made. Those choices worked for the people they were, their regrets were because of the people they were. To me, they are all quite vague, because their advice can't be anything but subjective. I've always thought this moment and the conclusion were done brilliantly.
@@nivircescrittore8304 It could easily be interpreted to say, "You need to be prepared to kill him if that ends up being the only solution," which was solid advice. Aang up until that point was refusing the very possibility, which was somewhat selfish. You don't need to stop looking for another way, but if you can't find one, it's not okay to do nothing.
@@Illjwamh I feel like if she only had said "Do whatever it takes to protect the world" that would be a valid interpretation, but she added "Selfless duty calls you to sacrifice your own spiritual needs" before saying that and I feel that if it was meant to have such a potential interpretation, there wouldn't really have a "call of duty" (no pun intended) for him to make such sacrifice. If she had said "Selfless duty calls you to be ready to sacrifice your own spiritual needs" it would also be valid, but again, she didn't say that, she said duty calls Aang to sacrifice his spiritual needs, not for him to be ready to make such sacrifice. So I feel it is pretty unambiguous she is telling Aang to kill the Firelord.
Avatar Kuruk wasn't actually just a "go with the flow kind of Avatar". The Avatar before him, Avatar Yangchen neglected the spirit world and so Kuruk had to figh off evil spirits during his time. I believe everytime he fought the spirits it drained life out of him and he died fairly young. To protect Yangchen's "honor" (or legacy I don't really know the word) he never told anybody about what he did and was known as the "lazy Avatar" amongst common folk.
From what I have read from the Kyoshi Novels(halfway through the second one) This was true but also Yengchen ushered in an unprecedented time of peace for the people of the world and was widely loved. she did such a good job as avatar to the people that most crime and crime organizations were tiny and too afraid to make large movements so it was a golden age of peace for everyone so people got complacent. So when Yengchen died and the new Avatar was old enough to take on his duties, there wasn't much for him to do, Yengchen did such a good job Kuruk didn't have anyone to keep in line except for Spirits so naturally some of them might want revenge or hold a grudge against Kuruk. Since he wasn't expecting a ton of danger because of Yengchen, he let down his guard and his girlfriend(wife?) was abducted and killed by Ko the Face Stealer(i think Ko killed her but i'm not 100% totally sure) Kuruk tried to rescue her but failed in his attempt and was killed. A lot of people shit on Kuruk but he was simply a product of his time and the Avatar before him. Just like Aang had to deal with the left over consequences of Roku's time so to do all Avatars.
And he still kept protecting her honor, even when talking to Aang he doesn't tell him that truth. Long after his death. Maybe he doesn't care what others think of him.
@@Shadowcat31 Yeah, I didn't mean to say that Yangchen was a bad Avatar because she wasn't. (Probably) All the Avatars had to deal with whatever bullshit the previous one didn't do or indirectly caused in their time.
I only bring this up at this episode, but Lion Turtles are brought up quite a bit in this series. They show pictures with them, small statues, and the name is said every so often. I felt like the most random thing the first time I watched it, but on a rewatch, I realized it was kind of always there
The Zuko/Iroh reunion is absolute beauty in the way it's written. In many ways I think that the audience imprints on Zuko in this scene and feels all the emotions that Zuko does as the conversation goes on; that's why so many people get emotional when the hug happens and Iroh responds. The absolute relief we feel is what both the characters go through in that moment. Zuko also looks so vulnerable in that scene, just like a little kid would be who is afraid of being abandoned. Iroh's second voice actor, Greg Baldwin, had big shoes to fill for season three. He replicated Mako's voice and cadence so well; there was even a rumor that he was Mako's official understudy as he was getting sicker but it was debunked by Baldwin himself. He did an absolutely amazing job with this scene, but there are times that I wish and truly wonder what it would have been like if Mako was still alive to do this scene. Regardless, I'm so happy we got the emotional payoff that this character relationship deserves.
Technically none of the past Avatars actually told Aang to kill the firelord. The closest was Yangchen with "selfless duty calls you to sacrifice your own spiritual needs and do whatever it takes to save the world" but the others basically just said "be decisive", "only justice will bring peace" and "you must actively shape your destiny and the destiny of the world". Also something interesting about what Yangchen said was that the Avatar cannot detach themselves from the world. While Guru Pathik did teach Aang helpful lessons with the chakras; with one line Yangchen actually proved that the guru's last lesson about letting go of his attachments was actually wrong for the Avatar. I think it's because since the guru was so connected to and knowledgeable about Air Nomad stuff and was thinking it would help Aang with the Avatar State but he didn't actually know Avatar stuff.
My interpatration of the "letting go off attachments" was always that he COULD have them, but he needed to learn to let go incase something bad were to happen. Like he wouldn't go crazy in the Avatar state because one of his friends got killed or something. I don't know, just my thoughts.
Thing is, he was actually allowed to say “kill” in that episode. By the laws of kids television, you can only say “kill” or “die” when it’s not going to happen. If there’s going to be even a second of animation where the viewer thinks it might be true that the character died, you have to use indirect words like “destroyed” “gone” and “I’m fine. ‘He’s lying.’” Still, it was nice of them to dedicate a whole episode to “what if this wasn’t a kids show?”
As for Aang never "taking a life", I guess it is not confirmed whether the buzzard wasp in the desert actually died (we later see Appa blast them off and they just get up again). Back in the North Pole, it was in the Avatar State, having the ocean spirit take over.
Yeah, the only other people I remember Aang might've killed outside of Avatar State where he had no control were in The Blue Spirit episode, specifically when he blasted the soldiers into the ground from atop the walls. But it was a scene for laughs, so I guess they were only maimed🤔
He definitely killed the buzzard hawk thing. And, there is no way all those soldiers lived after the avalanche. Oh, and he caused hot air balloons to crash after the failed siege.
13:08 Yeah, the timeline of Zuko’s ancestors is a real test of one’s suspension of disbelief. Sozin didn’t have Azulon until he was 82. Azulon probably didn’t have Iroh until he was about 40, and Ozai probably around 50. And then there’s the Roku side, where he and his wife probably had their daughter around the age of 60, and then their daughter probably had Ursa (Zuko’s mom) around the age of 60 as well.
Toph and Bumi had an earthbending battle with Sokka as referree but no ones winning, everything is being destroyed and they ended up call it quits. This is in the comics
7:21 I highly recommend the Kyoshi novels - they cover Kyoshi being discovered as the Avatar and the immediate fallout of that (and her learning the elements) They add a lot of depth to her scene here when you know where she comes from and how she actually feels about violence & homicide (and how she feels about that little strip of land that became Kyoshi Island)
While Kuruk had made it seem like he had an easy time, in the comics I believe, he was very busy with the spirit world because yangchen just absolutely neglected it. Kuruk had to clean up the mess that she made by only focusing on the human world
