So we can all agree that this guy did nothing wrong, right?
I mean let's take a look at his actions:
>1. Wanted to spread the superior Fire-Nation culture, technology, and government to the rest of the world.
>2. Oversaw the industrial revolution that was the backbone of all the cool shit that was available in LoK.
>3. Look at all of the empowered women he employs; he's egalitarian as fuck.
>4. Brought down Ba Sing Say, an Orwellian city that was a nightmare of people who lived in it.
>5. Seriously, remember that one episode where Aang ripped off Footloose? The public education the children of the Fire Nation received was unlike anything that was available in any other part of the world.
>6. He fought to secure the existence of his people and a future for fire-bender children.

>>89877008
>post doesn't say korra once
Nice try anon but we don't live in that world any more

>>89877008
He planned to burn everything to ash and kill countless innocents. Plus all the tyranny under his rule, raising a monster child in Azula. Even if you ignore all the moral things he did wrong he still lost his grasp of the world to a couple of old farts and some kids so he did something wrong there

Reminder that all of the past lives were pretty much fuck-ups like Korra, that Aang eventually needed advice from a random Spirit Turtle, and that getting advice from yourself is overrated.

Only kuruk and maybe roku were really a fuckup, yangchen and kyoshi did pretty good

>>89877200
>kyoshi did pretty good
She allowed a conqueror to fuck up an entire continent and only did anything when he came knocking at her doorstep.

And even then, Kyoshi's answer was to take Kyoshi peninsula and push it somewhere else rather than to fight the threat.

>>89877124
Woah anon. I really don't know where to begin. The Firelord didn't try to genocide the world, that's a lie. Can't believe everything that Tenzin said.

Zuko: So you want my government to give you money for what?
Tenzin: Reparations, for the great war and for the near-extermination of 6 million air-benders
Zuko: I already did alot of stuff for you, man
Tenzin: SIX BILLION AIRBENDERS DIED YOU KNOW!!!!

I don't know if being the personal bodyguard and enforcer of the current king of the earth kingdom and its nobles is really the duty of the avatar.

>>89877175
Nothing was wrong with the advice they gave

>>89877008

>superior Fire Nation Technology
That was outmatched by a balding man, his crippled son, and a couple of other hippies
>Oversaw the industrial revolution that was the backbone of all the cool shit that was available in LoK.
No, he merely started a war economy. Most of the revolution would have happened under Zuko's rule.
>Look at all of the empowered women he employs; he's egalitarian as fuck.
Three empowered women, one of whom is his daughter. The rest were either cannon fodder grunts or his daughter's friends.
> Brought down Ba Sing Say, an Orwellian city that was a nightmare of people who lived in it.
That was the dai lee technically, and he promptly put it back under control of his fire nation and the people who made it an orwellian nightmare.
>Seriously, remember that one episode where Aang ripped off Footloose? The public education the children of the Fire Nation received was unlike anything that was available in any other part of the world.
They made macaroni pictures and told a false history about how a bunch of bald, cake eating, animal loving monks had an organised military.
>He fought to secure the existence of his people and a future for fire-bender children.
By murdering everyone else. Also, he tried to kill half of his own fire bender children. Multiple times. He either failed or got dissuaded each time.

>>89877124

Also this. Guy raised a monster, got the crap kicked out of him by his 'worthless son' when he attempted to execute him, and only survived because Zuko AND Aang were merciful.

>>89877175

This pretty much. Korra is disappointing because Aang sets a high standard; he actually masters all four elements, and utilises each of them in interesting ways. He's used rocks as armor, fireballs to knock down airships, water to cushion his landings, and air to be a general untouchable madman.

Korra's more of a kick, punch, kick fighter, which is a bit shit when someone has something to restrain you with.

So did Aang. He just got it Deus Ex'd back.

And people say Korra's the only who has the universe solve all her problems.

>>89877558
>This pretty much. Korra is disappointing because Aang sets a high standard;
The thing is Aang is hyper competent for his age, while the only thing Korra was supposed to be at good was fighting.

However, they didn't even show Korra be good at fighting, the one thing she's supposed to be good at, because they don't know how to establish a villain as a threat without Korra jobbing to them.

Literally just started watching this series tonight. I was told this series was worth watching since I am a fan of Voltron.

>>89885964
Some of the writers of Voltron got their break on ATLA, so there are similarities.
Sokka's like Lance but actually useful and charming.

alright, let's settle this

who do we reckon was the bigger slut post-series, Toph or Ty Lee?

>>89887198
Ty Lee loved the attention so her?

The next avatar will have to only have Korra as their only mentor. That's pure terror

>>89877008
Anon Fire nation won in the end

Earth Kingdoms lost land and power and is highly likely gonna face turmoil. Water nations are divided so now their power is cut in two and south water tribe is still hindered by the war and sparsity.
United republics have a huge fire nation influence and upper class as well as a base for more fire nationals to spread influence over.

>>89887233
Remind me which past life offered good and useful advice, and wasn't just part of a power-up.

>>89887260
for Aang or Korra

>>89887260

In TLA Aang got some good advice from his past lives during the finale. He just didn't follow it because turtles.

>>89887279
Such as?

>>89887279
It's been a while since I've rewatched the show, any examples?
I remember the Guru telling him to disregard bitches to gain Wizard Powers, but he was stupid, Aang already had Wizard Powers.

>>89887279
Most of the advice given in TLA is good advice, it's just sometimes not taken/not what they're looking for.

Aang's particular problem was trying to find a solution that didn't involve sacrificing his ideals, which he held as extra important considering he literally was the last of his kind. Part of the moral dilemma he's got is that if he takes Ozai's life as the Avatar, he'll "cease to be" the Last Airbender, as the Airbender philosophies natures will have died in order to necessitate Ozai's death.

He still gets the solution given to him, regardless of risk to spirit or not, but even so, there was a lot going there beyond "muh no kill code".

>>89876997
>The next Avatar will go on a spirit quest to reforge the connection with previous Avatars, shaking his head at what a fuck up Korra was the whole while. Eventually finds Deus Ex to fix Korra's mistakes. Uses it to remove Korra from the line of Avatars. Because she's such a fuck up. This causes bullshit spirit balance stuff to destroy the Reincarnation Cycle from the inside out.
>Even dead and removed from the Avatar Cycle Korra still manages to ruin eveything

>>89887298
>>89887315

My favorite of the four pieces of advice he was given was that since he has a responsibility to the world he needs to put that responsibility over his own happiness (I'm paraphrasing here). Like I said though this was rendered completely meaningless by him moments later being given energybending knowledge by the turtle. I love the original series but this one aspect of the ending really pissed me off.

>>89887376

I understand it's a little more complicated than "but muh morals" but I think it's a lot less interesting. It just leaves a sour taste in my mouth. There's already a million shows aimed at younger audiences with a "just be true to yourself" message but maybe there should be one that says that the whole world is a little more important than that. If he had found non-lethal the solution in another way I would be more okay with it, but as it is it feels a little bit cheap.

daily reminder that Ty Lee broke the golden rule

>>89877008
Literally all of those things were done by other people, mostly Sozin.

Remember that the guy's big doomsday plan was to scorch a continent owned by his own nation with a slow-ass fleet of vulnerable airships while facing people who can throw fuck-huge rocks at flying things. I'm not exactly sure what he was thinking, but oh boy his plan was dumb like all fuck.

For the nth time I still want an Evil Avatar

An Avatar that decided to put matters in his own hands to rule the four nations as a Tyrant.

The protagonist would then have to team up to defeat him, this would showcase a whole lot more elemental combinations with the 4 of them instead of relying on Avatar's 4 element circle thing with aang

>>89887434

Post rare qts

>>89876804
The world always felt really small to me, what with only four nations being present at all.
>>89890231
An evil Avatar probably wouldn't be able to access the Avatar State, the danger would be greatly diminished.

>>89890408
Good, then make the Evil Avatar to knowingly avoid Avatar state since he knows that all the past Avatars would try their best to stop him.

So the Story would be focused on one guy being able to bend all 4 elements as the bad guy while 4 of the strongest bender of each element is out to get him.

in the end the Avatar finds a way to 'shut' the past avatar out and goes Avatar State as some kind of evil super saiyan

>>89890453
>in the end the Avatar finds a way to 'shut' the past avatar out and goes Avatar State as some kind of evil super saiyan
I feel like one of Korra's problems was disregarding the previous rules of the show or adding new things to the lore, I don't know if Bryke could pull off adding something like that to the show without it seeming hamfisted and out of left field.

but unlike Korra, the Evil Avatar actually fights them in the Avatar state, we see Roku, Kiyoshi, Korra, Aang battling him until hes the only one left

1. Aang only survived the show because of the past lives

2. most avatars actually helped; Kyoshi stopped an evil emperor, Kuruk BTFO Koh, Roku kept peace until he died, and Aang defeated the FN

>b-but Roku could have stopped before..
Not his fault as he wasn't expecting to die, and this just means that he could have helped BETTER, not that he didn't help.

>Aang eventually needed advice from a random Spirit Turtle
You could literally erase the turtle without changing the outcome of the final battle. You could NOT erase the past lives without Aang losing that fight.

>>89877598
>So did Aang
He couldn't go into the avatar state, it's different from destroying the past lives. Basically: he didn't fuck up the next avatar.

It was pretty awesome, especially liked Zuko's arc

I just finished marathoning the whole of Aangs bit.
Zukos arc was great and Iroh was the best character followed shortly by toph.
I was a bit disappointed we didn't get Azula backstabbing the emperor, but watching her go completely batshit was worth it.
There is not nearly enough porn.

>>89893368
yeah Zuko stuff is the best, even in the first few episodes

>>89893434
Avatar porn has very good artists tho

And I'm not willing to dig into the palcomix hole just yet either

So did Jet's buddies die with him or what?

>>89893716
No, they showed up in the comics. I guess that they just got locked in prison.

>>89893434

Azula didn't go batshit crazy she just had a breakdown.
