“It is important to draw wisdom from many different places. If you take it from only one place, it becomes rigid, and stale. Understanding others, the other elements, and the other nations will help you become whole.” - Iroh
this is so important.
I love this because there is no vagueness about whether he is using a waterbending move here or not. Waterbending is based off Taijiquan, and this is a signature move in the style. Zuko is taking fire here and making it flow like liquid, and it’s fantastic.
this was the essence of avatar. learning from other cultures to better yourself. iroh knew this and learned the styles of the other nations. he taught zuko how to redirect lightning using the technique of waterbenders. zuko taught himself how to bend fire like air and water
Remember one of the core concepts of avatar. the division of elements is merely an illusion.
Found the pic I made in tiltbrush my first time in vive.
Steven universe is a kids show
Gravity falls is a kids show
We bare bears is a kids show
Avatar and Korra are kids shows
(the original) teen titans was a kids show
star vs the forces of evil are kids shows
The best kids shows are ones that challenge children to think. The best kids shows give all characters depth. Saying poor writing is excusable because “it’s a kids show” is an insult to kids and kid shows everywhere. That is why I don’t like it when people say teen titans go shouldn’t be criticized because it’s a kids show.
realizing Steven’s birthday is also the anniversary of Rose’s death
Okay but
No not exactly. It never said the next avatar is born the moment the previous dies.
Actually they did. Avatar Roku said it. He was telling the story of how he could have prevented Firelord Sozen from starting the war. His island was exploding and he was sprayed in the face with toxic gas. He was dying and his dragon curled up next to him as the ash piled on top of him. Then the shot panned and you switches to Avatar Aang being born at the same night if not the exact moment of Avatar Rokus death.
So at the very least, the avatar is born the same day but it’s most likely the exact moment.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
