I was under the impression that it was like 3-7 days, either way I agree with you it did seem like a short amount of time for any meaningful progress in swordsmanship to have been made.

Well, every Fire Nation aside from Azula, Zuko, and Sokka's Master.

You forget about that comet?

Meteor swords happened in real life, Sokka just won the cosmic lottery.
>>
>>88834485
they openly said they sorta gave up on beating the comet and there was no point since the Fire Nation took the Earth Capitol.
>>88834340
Only in name. He was a mediocre swordsman still but Master paisho liked his moxie and taught him to embrace his leadership qualities.
>>
>>88834419
To be honest, it would have been forced if the meteor fell while he was wondering what metal he should use for his sword.
The way it happened, right at the beginning, makes it more like Sokka taking advantage of his surroundings.

To be fair, he did nothing with it and he would have gotten killed by Piandao if he had been serious.

Well, I guess I just assumed he they did it during the comet. There was no explanation as to how firebenders were able to reach the air nomads, since you need to fly up in order to get to some places.

Correct anon. They only get their asses back in gear once they learn what Ozai is planning to do with the Comet power and that doesn't happen till near the end of the season.
>>
>>88834385
They didn't shit on him. Sokka was experiencing self-loathing in that episode because he felt worthless among benders, not because Aang or Katara were picking on him. Toph throws some banter his way but he seemed to take it okay.
>>
>>88834474
It's also a great line that reinforces Sokka's character as an out-of-box thinker. Most people would think to say the sword is an extension of their arm because that's what they use to fight whereas Sokka likes using his brain to fight.

This show really did have some nice layers that were fun to peel back and analyze. I really wish Aaron had came back for Korra.
>>
>>88835446
AND his boomerang.
"Boomerang! You do always come back!" and much later "I don't think Boomerang is coming back," makes me feel melancholy every time.
>>
Yeah but who did Sokka fuck?
>>
>>88838392
the moon
>>
>>88834340
Except it didn't take an afternoon.

He had to smelt his own sword and that took like 4 days, and before that he was still training. He wasn't even any where near master level at all any way. He just did enough to impress the guy training him.

I really wish Sokka got to take down a big bad. Stopping the air fleet was fine and all, but I wanted one example of Sokka just beating a powerful bender by out thinking them.

Well he did take out Sparky Sparky Boom Boom

Combustion Man qualifies. The combined efforts of Aang, Toph, Zuko, and Katara couldn't beat the guy.
He also took out the giant owl with a dive bomb book slam to the head.

Maybe in real life, but not in Avatar world where comets (which are made of ice) power up firebenders.

Yes.

And if you're interested, some fans recently did a 1080p remaster of the show.

Some episodes(1-4, 9-25) have problems currently due to shitty DVD sources but those will be replaced eventually(they got a better quality source) and the vast majority of the show looks great.

>>
>>88846482
Connie is still an amateur. She's good for a kid at her level of experience, though.

Also, her teacher has 5,000 years of combat experience. Sokka's has like 50. So if she's progressing unusually fast that's probably why.
>>
>>88847871
What would make more sense would be her meditating on the nature of metal and slowly being able to manipulate it like earth, which I guess is what they went with when they added mercury bending. Which now when I think of it is kind of stupid way to kill someone, bending arsenic into someone is probably a far easier way to kill them.

>>
>>88834472
>>88834367
It explicitly happened in 2 days, with one day spent making the sword.

Sokka was a wasted opportunity in ATLA. Instead of having him gradually become a good fighter by training in the background like he did in the Kiyoshi island episode, it's like they suddenly realized he was bad in the 3rd season and so they had him learn swordbending in a day.

Also a sword is a stupid fucking weapon of choice for a kid's cartoon. He was more effective with his club.
>>
>>88848380
They included a bunch of other not shit steels with it which might be period accurate but also is not the deep black unless they lacquered or blued it.

>>88848641
Zuko got to do cool stuff with his swords.
>>
>>88847955
>Also, her teacher has 5,000 years of combat experience.
Combat experience doesn't correlate to teaching experience.

I'd also tentatively make the argument that gems are worse swordfighters than people.
>>
There's a comic that explains that Zuko's a much better swordsman than Sokka. Sokka started out athletic and with decent fighting knowledge, and only needed to learn the basics of swordsmanship for his purposes. He was never going to be the one to fight bending masters, he just needed to be good enough to fend off mooks.
>>
Anyone else fed up with many contrived set-ups for episodes in S3, including this one?

Sokka is the more mature one and the usual quick thinker, so why wasn't he the one to think of the plan to put out the meteoroid fire?
>>
>>88851030
"bend water at it"
>>
>>88851030
I like to think that the rest of the gaang got better at coming up with plans due to the experience with Sokka's ideas. Also, it's never good when only the smart character is allowed to be smart because it turns the rest of the cast into retards.

Also, Sokka needed to be temporarily useless so he could feel bad about himself and the plot of the episode would kick in.

I just wish that the sword would've been brought up later on. He throws it away, and yeah, it was a very powerful moment, but that was it.

They could've made a cameo or something, maybe in Korra, where a guy ends up using it and he explains that he got it from his grandpa who found it in the forest while escaping the fire and he would've died if the gods did not gift him this sword to escape with.

That image is total bullshit. If they fail their color spray will save, they'll be rendered prone and helpless, which means you can perform a Coup de Grace on them, which is an automatic hit and confirmed critical. Then, if they fail a fortitude save of a DC (10 + all the coup de grace damage dealt), which is incredibly unlikely to be possible at first level, they outright die instantly.

>>88874638
>If they fail their color spray will save
Yeah, IF.
At level 1, that could be a less than 75% chance, and then you lose your best spell for the rest of the day. Still better than having to whittle down their HP over several rounds, but you're not *sure* to win.
The argument that any magic at any level should just automatically win because it "warps reality" is just best-case-scenario wank. Virtually all non-epic offensive spells have a chance of failure, so the idea of caster supremacy where non-casters are mere insects and pose no threat was clearly not Gygax and Arneson's original intent.

Why would Gems be any worse? If anything Gems and humans have the same potential, seeing as they seem to have similar intelligence levels.

This. I mean the dude wouldn't be a master, but he already seemed pretty strong and smart. Also he had a sharp mind, which is probably important for sword fighting. But this is all conjecture, so...

I don't really watch Steven Universe, so this pretty much all conjecture. As I understand it, gems only really have one weak point, and when you couple that with their healing and resistance to energy, they probably lack defensively compared to fleshier humans.

I also think humans had more development in their swordsmanship. Sure the gems have been alive for thousands of years, but did they really do much fighting barring one incident 5000 years ago? Monsters don't really swordfight you back. Meanwhile, humans fought all the time practically.

Connie should be even worse, since she's just a normal kid and is learning to not protect her heart/head/neck/etc. since her gem isn't there.

It was in context a prudent and logical move to both counter attack and remove her from the fight. But I was surprised to see them have her blow her own head to bits right on screen.
>>
>>88844773
it's really accurate. having a blind daughter is a burden in a postindustrial society. They had enough money to raise her and were people of high status which is the only reason toph wasn't left to die at birth.

It was in order to balance them, fire is less common than the other elements, they wouldn't be enough of a threat

I mean air is always around you. Earth is always around you in this setting. The only bending element that seems to be weak is water because you can't always find water.

So I mean your argument should be a complaint as to why water bending is such ass.
>>
>>88879004
>because you can't always find water.
>Kata bended her sweat

You can always find water anon, it's just to small enough to drink.
>>
>>88878428
You only need air to make fire.
>>
>>88842453
Yes it is
>>
>>88879060
Sweat isn't much to do shit with. You can have extreme amounts of earth, air, and fire for use, a cup and a half of water you got from plants doesn't really compare to how much ample resource each other bending art has.

Water is the one that got the most subsets to compensate, though I think they went too far.

Book 3 is the best book of ATLA.

Only major complaint is that they tossed out the "you have to put your responsibilities over your own personal happiness" message for a "just be yourself and everything will work out" message.

That's not Season 2, bucko. Season 3 is rushed and ends in a Deus Ex Machina. Also wasted valuable time that could have be spent on other things for a lol randum episode about Aang's nightmares.
>>
>humans get ingored for Saiyans episode

Avatar was really inpired by anime, wasn't it?
>>
>>88834340
Upon rewatching season 3, it had some annoying shit, but overall its super enjoyable. It has some of the best "pointless" episodes in the series, like the The Headband, The Runaway and Ember Island Players.
>>
>>88878428

This. Season 2 is nearly perfect, but season 3 had a lot of bullshit, and Katara became unbearably bitchy.

Yes it is, man. That's a terrible way to go.

He truly is the Master of the long game.
>>
>>88881471
>>Katara taking Zuko's fight with Azula was great
That was annoying. Well executed, I think, but annoying. That said, there was nobody left for Katara to take on since Mai and Ty were in jail, DaiLee were fired and the palace guard were off with Ozai, I think.
>>
>>88881471
It was. Showing Azula in all her rotten glory, Zuko's new selflessness and friendship triumphing over psycho loners.
>>
>>88881801
Zuko's battle with Azula wasn't just a physical one; it carried all the physiological and family issues they've had for years (I don't have time to word this better). Having Zuko not be the one to defeat her just felt wrong. They could at least made him get back up near end, maybe have Azula about to cast lightning at Katara and then Zuko attacks her at the last moment. The Katara could have done what happened in the show and trapped her using the water.
