Happy Valentine's Day to our M&D fam!💘
Can you believe we're only 8 days away from Netflix's Live-Action?! We are SO stoked to watch it with all of you. We'll also be debuting our Patreon then 🫶✨ More details to come!
What was your favorite part of this episode? We love how ride or die Suki and Mai are in this 🤩😍
You too, please get into anime reaction it will grow your channel, Jujitsu Kaisan is an amazing anime, then there is a movie and now a season 2, please watch it, ull love it
One detail about Zuko’s fire bending:
Since we’ve first met Zuko every time he fire bended he would grunt, until he relearned fire bending from the masters. He always had to force it out but now he does it effortlessly, a very nice detail the writers put in
Good point! Love this detail about Zuko 🤩
Strength in numbers. Zuko started a chain reaction. He found the strength to break free and choose to do what’s right and that in turned influenced Mai, who in turn influenced Ty Lee. I think Azula was abusive for years to all three of these characters and it’s satisfying to see them stand up to her and break free.
100% you're so right about the positive chain reaction here!
Mai and Ty Lee's betrayal may be one of my favorite moments in the entire show, and it encapsulates their characters so well. Mai is not an emotionless person, and she's not weak willed. She bottles her feelings up due to having them silenced her whole life, but when something really matters to her, she acts. And Ty Lee, while controlled by fear, isn't a coward. She admires Azula for all of her strengths, but she sees her for what she is: a manipulative monster who would literally boil her own brother alive. You can see it in her face from how sad she looks on the gondola after they start cutting the lines. It just took an extreme stimulus (Azula and Mai potentially about to kill each other) to break through the fear that was holding her back.
I mean, it also doesn't come from nowhere.
Azula has basically at some point implied the 3 of them were friends and Ty Lee and Mai just look at one another like "Euh...sort of?"
Azula has also spent a lot of time giving her best friends reasons to betray her. She forced Ty Lee to join and refused to trade for the safety of Mai's little brother.
Mai and Ty Lee are also best friends. Mai being in danger is what tipped her over the edge. She didnt even think abt what she was doing she just wanted to save her friend.
One of my favorite moments in this series: Mai- I love Zuko more than I fear you. In Spanish Mai mentions Azula’s name: Te equivocaste Azula. That’s epic. By the way, nice shirts 👚 👕 Besides the finale next chapter is my favorite one from the entire series. Such a great reaction! ❤
I love that!! Mai was MVP in this episode for sure 💘 thanks for your support family 🙏🏽
Now maybe this is just me overanalyzing, but a hidden subplot in these episodes is Suki thinking the Sokka came here just to rescue her, where in reality he happened to just find her coincidentally. Its interesting since Azula had taunted Sokka with the idea of Suki giving up on him coming to rescue her, during the eclipse. So yeah if I were Suki i’d be glad Sokka found me but at the same time he never intended to, so mixed feelings.
**Spoilers for Korra below**
Yeah, the more i rewatched the show, the more I felt weird about that. But for me I think it shows Sokkas flaw with very subtlety. That even tho he's good at flirting and might seem like a ladies man, he actually might not be good at relationships. Yes sokka and suki have a good relationship in ATLA but theyre literally teenagers in this. Its like a high school romance and we all know that most of those don't last.
So imo that subplot in this episode is kind of foreshadowing that he and suki won't be endgame. And it stands true because we heard nothing about them in Korra.
At least suki knew that he was there for his father
Sokka had no idea where Suki was being held and no way to find out. He tried to get the info from Azula, but she wouldn’t talk. What else was he supposed to do - abandon their time sensitive mission and force Aang to fly around the world looking for her? Suki seems like a rational person. She’s not going to hold that against him, especially since she’s a warrior and knows sometimes the mission has to come first. And as soon as he knew she was there, he focused on getting her out. There’s nothing for her to have mixed feelings about.
@@artistfloor9 exactly, it's not like he gave up, he had his father to worry about which personally I think is more important, just like how suki would put her kyoshi warriors before sokka, they literally just met a few months prior compared to a father!
True. That is something to think about. But I feel like even if Suki wasn’t there, in my head cannon, Sokka would look for her after the war. Zuko would totally use the full resources of the Fire Nation to help Sokka.
Even tho Ty lee didnt want to join at first she is VERY loyal to her two friends
She ONLY takes action agaist Azula because Mai was gonna be badly hurt
She sidnt really pick a side she kept her two friends safe, but its a shame Azula cant see it that way
I never really noticed that Zuko looked up to the sky before saying "that's rough buddy" 😂😂.
"Perfection and power are overrated. I think you are very wise to choose happiness and love." Uncle Iroh's advice to Aang back in Ba Sing Se is essentially the same choice Mei made. Azula represents power and perfection while, for Mei, Zuko is happiness and Love. "I love Zuko more than I fear you" was her way of saying the same thing in my opinion. And in the end Ty Lee made the same choice. Sadly Azula was raised and conditioned by Ozai to choose the other option. I LOVE Mai 😫.
Also here are Some of the foreshadowings to Mai's betrayal that I've found during my rewatches:
1. In The Drill Mai says that Azula can shoot all the lightning she wants at her, because she won't jump on the dirty water.
2. When they're in Ba Sing Se, Mai and Ty Lee trade looks when Azula talks about not trusting who is closest to you.
3. In the begining of Book 3 (specifically mai and zuko being a goth couple and hating the world), Mai side eyes Azula after she tells Mai to leave her and Zuko alone to talk.
4. In The Beach, Mai tells Azula to "leave her alone" while around the camp fire and proceeds to hug Zuko later on.
And the Ty Lee betrayal is one of my favorite moments in the whole show. You don't see it coming, but the second it happens you INSTANTLY understand it. Ty Lee doesn't want to be here, she never did. Azula forced her to leave the circus and it's easy to forget that she's been a glorified hostage this whole time. Throughout the show she is always desperately trying to please Azula, and both Azula and the audience take it as loyalty. But this moment recontextualizes it all. She was never loyal, she was...scared. And the only thing that could snap her out of it was Mai being in danger, because that's where her real loyalties lie.
Also Azula being a character who has probably never taken an actual L ever before in her life because she's literally just that much of a Perfectionist. Then she suddenly gets betrayed back to back by her only two friends in the world, aaaaand she gets completely folded too. Which is such a great way to start a devolution of the Perfect Antagonist.
And my final point today is female characters. And the avatar has such a great cast of women. I think my favourite thing is that they're different types of strong. So often a 'strong female character' basically means 'female character with a tough, quippy personality'. But in ATLA:
• Katara is compassionate and motherly
• Toph is boisterous and sassy
• Azula is cold and a perfectionist
• Ty Lee is bubbly and outgoing
• Mai is indifferent (to strangers) yet Brave (for someone she loves)
• Suki is protective and a Leader.
So while they're all warriors and they all have unique strengths and vulnerabilities. No one is untouchable and no one is completely helpless either. Basically, the writers treat them like human beings rather than token female characters.
Well that was a fun reaction. I hope u have a wonderful day ahead 💗 💛.
P.S.: Happy Valentines day to you guys 💝.
What a POST! Thank you, it was a pleasure to read it. :D
I've been saying for years the one piece of media that comes to mind when I think of strong, well-written, female characters is ATLA
We always LOVE how insightful all of your comments are... but this... THIS is the one! I love the detail and analysis break-down of each of the female characters. So beautifully said. I really appreciate how the writers didn't make them basic, token female characters either but gave them each their own nuances that make us love their characters in different ways 🥹
Thanks for always adding value to our comment section and supporting us, friend! Have a great week ahead 💜
Also Azula double crosses the resistance while they hold Mai's brother prisoner.
Likewise, when zuko was trying to give an “iron type” advice, he is essentially just saying there’s a silver lining to things. Which a few seconds later, we see that being sokka able to rescue suki 🙂
28:15 Zuko is not the only bender. The big prisoner guy (Chitseng?) Is a firebemder too.
That introduction part.. :D You are both so cute and funny
Haha thanks for watching with us 🥰🫶🏼
Zuko was never be able to beat Azula before. Azula had ALWAYS overpowered Zuko. And now they are so equal at fighting. And if you guys notice there's major difference on how Zuko firebend now. He used to be like 'grunt' or 'groan' when he firebends, means that he used anger and rage in his firebending. Back in Book 1 eps 1 when Iroh trained Zuko, Iroh said "power of firebending comes from the breath, not the muscles". After learning from the dragons (the original source of firebending), Zuko understands and is now much more calm in his firebending and didn't produce any sound of grunt or groan at all.
I love how meesh has been wanting people to be assassinated this season 😂😂😂 she's done it at least 5 times
Cracking up in the first 20 seconds 😂 confused at Dee going first then her identity theft of Meesh
Lmaaoo couldn’t hold it in!! 😂😆 thanks for watching with us ❤️
My favorite part as well they was so cute they look like they be so cool to hang with
So much fun for me as a viewer to watch the two of you enjoy this series. It makes m so happy to see others enjoying this as much as I do.
Fantastic job ladies!!!❤️❤️
Always appreciate you dropping in and watching with us 🥰🙏🏽
Ty Lee betrayal is the best
Dope reaction. You are right Meesh, Zuko is 16 and Sokka is 15.
You two are so heckin adorable!! And I love your Avatar shirts!

Thanks for your support and watching with us, Riley! 🥰🙏🏽🫶🏼
Love you guys. Happy Valentine Day
🥰🫶🏼🫶🏼
Mai a ride or die
SHE'S A REAL ONE! 😍
Fave EPISODE !!!! Let’s goooooooooooooo
LFG!!
These are my 2 fav episodes of atla, the fight scene on the gondola is goated.
Also unrelated but y'all are so pretty
We love these eps so much too! Thanks for your support and watching with us 🥰🫶🏼
I’m glad Dee laughed at Sokka calling his girlfriend meat. I knew I wasn’t the only one! 😂
😂😂😂
34:30 Mai joined willingly but the first thing Azula did after Mai joined her was the decision not make the trade Bumi for Mai's little brother. Mai also cares for Ty Lee, she was surprised when Ty Lee joined Azula.
In case you missed it, there's a dirty joke hidden in this episode when Mai and Zuko are in the prison cell.
I think why Sokka is more open to accept Zuko is because Zuko never really hurt Sokka. We only see him fight Aang and Katara but not once Sokka.
He kinda fought him in episode 2, and humiliated him in front of his whole village.
@@novastarburst3939 Oh yeah, totally forgot about that.
@@novastarburst3939 I think the difference is how Sokka has grown, he knows him at the village was an idiot with how he bulrushed things, plus they got even when boomerang straight up beamed Zuko
Oh for sure. It must also be said that Katara didn’t go around telling everybody exactly what Zuko did in Ba Sing Se.
If Sokka had held Aang’s dead body in his arms or his sister’s or Suki’s and Zuko had a not so small part in making that happen, Sokka would likely have had a harder time trusting him or wanting anything to do with him. Toph would have blasted him off the temple if anything like that had happened to her personally too
I think cause other than being fire nation and attacking village Sokka isn’t taking it as personal whereas Aang and Katara are based on previous encounters where they interact a lot even on a personal level of vulnerability with Zuko
“That’s rough buddy”
29:45 I dont get how they dare to cut the line. Never mind the warden Azula and Zuko are on the gondola. The only two heirs to the royal family. Can you imagine what Ozai would do to a guard who got his heir killed?
This has always bothered me about doing rewatches. I know it’s one thing to drop zuko since he’s a “traitor” but to drop azula is crazy to me
4:00 *insert Master Roshi nose bleeding GIF
27:37 Has the exact same vibes as ua-cam.com/video/yhZ0TKdgJGg/v-deo.htmlsi=LIQFB9QR4y3wNeA6
Lmaaooo this comment is **elite** 😂😂🤣
Hey Meesh and Dee I hope you two day are going well. This was a great two part episodes where Sokka and Zuko go to the Boiling Rock. I just love the conversation when Sokka tells Zuko his first girlfriend was the moon and Zuko response that's rough buddy 😂🤣
Happy to see Sokka being able to reunite with his father and Suki and be able to escape with Zuko from the Boiling Rock. I wasn't surprised that Mai betrayed Azula but I wasn't surprised that Ty Lee did because I would had thought she would be conflicted. But anyway I hope you two have a wonderful day. Stay safe, take care and stay amazing

Hey Rob! Love that scene with Zuko too lol "That's rough buddy" always gets me!
Azula really had it coming I suppose lol but sad to see Ozai's angels disband lol but for good cause! Have a great week, friend! 🫶
@MeeshDeeReacts You're welcome, and thank you. But I completely agree that Azula had it coming. And now with her friends turning on her. That has to really do damage to her because she just stated she's a people person. But quite frankly, she doesn't really know anything about her ex friends. But anyway, I hope you two have a wonderful week too. As well the rest of your day is enjoyable.
Can you imagine going to jail and your son is already there, dressed as a guard and ready to bust you out?
Soka 😎😎😎 es la mente maestra del equipo avatar el hace los planes y estrategias el pensó en usar el refrigerador como bote ⛵ y utilizar la ventilación para transportar carbón el plan de sabotaje del taladro y el plan de invasión de la nación del fuego 🔥 y los submarinos
Gracias por verlo con nosotras jaja 🥰🫶🏼
I see what Meesh is doing with that shirt there
😇😇😇
Ironic that you guys and Toph's voice actor Michaela Jill Murphy both uploaded boiling rock reactions on the same day
We love MJM’s channel! 🤩
5:00 I think they're all a year apart. Zuko is oldest Sokka one year younger than Zuko. Katara one year younger than Sokka. Aang one year younger than Katara and Toph one year younger than Aang.
Actually, both Aang and Toph are of same age, two years younger than Katara.
❤❤
Love your channel! Please react to Arcane after Avatar.
Suki will never catch up to azula, even if azula doesnt firebend lol
