“There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in a storm, a night without a moon, and the anger of a gentle man” All of this happened within the finale and this elevates my enjoyment of Avatar even further
I love the detail that earlier on in the series Iroh tells Zuko "a man needs his rest" and Zuko completely blows his advice off, but NOW Iroh reiterates that advice, and a wiser more experienced Zuko Listens... slow growth
Genuinely couldn’t care less the difference of time between the start and end of the seasons being uploaded. No matter how long it takes I know that I and many others will still watch. Feel completely free to take breaks no pressure. Edit: those are some neat flags in the background
"Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation touched the FROG" just finished watching your react and it's really good seeing someone enjoying the show as much as i did, hope you love book 2 as well! ❤️
One fun interesting fact is: as they told us, the moon was the spirit who pull water and the ocean the one who push it. If you watch closely, everytime the giant fish (who used the body of aang, the avatar, as a channeler) used waterbending, since it was the ocean spirit, it was only pushing water, never pulled it.
They did mention in this episode that Iroh has been in the spirit world which explains why he saw Roku's dragon and Aang while they were in spirit form
@@BlueOrder Oh it definitely is! Atla is an incredible show not only because of the cool story and characters, but also because of the writing and how well everything connects with the storyline. I couldn't name even a single plot hole if I tried, which only proves that atla is a literal masterpiece! Anyways, I'm very excited for your future reactions, Blue, I'm sure you'll love book 2 and 3
Now I want to see an alternate universe where Tui and La are two frogs on a lilypad. Would be cute lol But anyway, these two episodes are just too good. Had a lot of great moments, but I got chills watching the Water Tribe soldiers bow down to the ocean spirit, while the Fire Nation Soldiers refused to and got fucked up. Also, Zuko made so many stupid choices this episode, you gotta love the guy. Thank you for another video!
I just absolutely love the water spirit and just the sheer shock and awe of everyone witnessing it. Spirits are not to be messed around with man (like Koh jeezus)
The book 1 finale is so good. The ominous black snow. The spirit stuff is so creepy. Zuko’s crazy ice water swimming, Zuko vs Katara, Zuko’s little speech. Aang saving Zuko. Iroh defending the spirits. Zuko trying to save Zhao despite him trying to kill him. Koizilla trashing everyone.
I think Avatar is my favorite shows of all time. I watched Avatar by myself and I loved it, but I think I started adoring this show when I held my brother at gunpoint to watch it with me.
Blue Order: DON'T TOUCH THE 🐸 FROG!! *Me eating frog for dinner*👀👀👀 Blue Order: Yeaaahhhh don't eat that, that's not food. *Me being shook* 👀👀👀 Blue Boy eez heeur?! Blue Order apologising for being AMAZANG and AWESOME SAUCE 💖💝💖💝💖💝 Everyone: FORGET ABOUT IT! WE'RE HERE FOR YOUS! 💝💖💝💖💝💖💝💖
Man, I could care less about how long it takes for you to finish this series & go onto the others. The fact you're even watching ATLA is good enough 😂. Take your time, focus on you, & so on. We'll be waiting 👍
wired: feeling bad because it took two years to complete book 1 of a:tla inspired: being proud that you still stuck through it and still delivering some great content well worth the wait also the black and white scene of aang sinking into the water is perhaps one of my favourite shots from the entire show
Wished you talk more about that scene at 2:52 where Zhao was taken by the Ocean spirit while Zuko tried to save him but only for Zhao to silently refuse by pulling his arm back. And how do you think Zuko felt when Zhao refuses Helped when it was his life was in danger? It probably messed with Zuko’s self-esteem issue quite a bit.
I have loved revisiting this show in this way and these have been making me so damn happy. Thank you so much blue for still making us happy after all this time. ALSO best character coming up soon so I'm Uber excited.
Sometimes I forget that there are framed pictures of toffee in the background, and then one day I decide to look at the background set up, and there he is
i love this episode so much, just so many things about it, TWO onscreen deaths in a nickelodeon cartoon, (and with Zhao i personally really love how Zuko tries to help him but Zhao is a bitch and would rather die) I love the backstory of Yue and the ocean and water spirits, and the facestealer is terrifying and i love it also Iroh staying behind with Yue, Sokka and Katara not to mention all the other things in this episode that are great like the animation like AUGH i love this episode
The fucking editing on Yue’s “I’m gay” at 3:10 GOT me. Omfg. Also you absolutely do not have to apologize or pressure yourself into either recording or editing if you’re not in the right mental state to do so. I personally would rather you be healthy and happy and have a video every once in a while because you actually enjoy the show and want to watch it, not because people are expecting you to. It’ll suck the fun out of it v quickly. You do you, the algorithm brought you up immediately when you posted Avatar again, you got this.
19:24 I NEVER NOTICED THIS! YOOOOO 0 -0 ... I've seen this show 3 times now wth. Every re-watch, even from just your reactions, I learn something new. I'm happy now. c:
Your editing during the fight scenes is my favourite, like, when Zuko dodges Xhao's attacks, and the paper mario TTYD lucky sound effect + visual happens, that genuinely got me. I'm really glad you're enjoying this show mate! You're gonna enjoy it way more henceforth, Book 2 is when stuff starts getting REAL, and also when THAT character who I also mentioned in a previous comment comes, you'll know who when you meet them, for now, enjoy the ride, and take your time getting these episode man, I love yo stuff!!
Fun fact: This is the first time we see Aang enter the Avatar State willingly. All the other times it was caused because he was in emotional stress or physical Danger. Edit: this is a nice little way of showing us just how catastrophic this event was.
I would consider the Moon being destroyed a form of danger, and the ocean spirit's anger calling out to him on a spiritual level probably had a lot to do with pushing him over the edge. I'm pretty sure "Willingly going into the Avatar state" is one of the many things the whole show is building up to. Aka, first time he willingly does it is after the final battle.
I'd say it was the Ocean Spirit channeling through him before merging. Same thing in the Winter Solstice episode when he Aang said "I'm ready" after Roku offered him help, then they merge. Both events were also accompanied by celestial events (ie, the drawing closer of the Physical and Spirit Worlds): the winter solstice and the full moon/blood moon/lunar eclipse.
@@Gojo_the_honored_rat, he was given the choice, but it was assisted by spirits, not unlike actually tapping into it unassisted. The next episode, which I assume isn't a spoiler for this reactor anymore, has Aang say "I'm trying! I'm trying!" when Katara was threatened. He was willing, but he didn't enter into it willingly. It was due to intense emotions, we've only seen him in the Avatar State like this and when a spirit channels itself through. That's like Aang's entire arc, mastering the Avatar State, tapping into it at will. This ain't it, chief.
I can’t wait for book 2 reactions to come out. I absolutely love this series and your reactions make it feel like I’m watching it for the first time again.
Were Finally here! Btw aang didnt just murder those people the ocean spirit did, you can see at some point aang was dropped off to pull the fire general into the backrooms.
I love your reactions, long time watcher. Don’t worry about it if you need to take a break, but I’m super appreciative that you’ve been uploading so consistently. It can’t be easy, so thank you again.
Blue I just wanted to take a minute before watch the finale to book one with you. I think you are amazing whenever I’m having a hard time in my life I come to your videos. You make me laugh and smile with so many great series,😊 I look forward to rewatching this masterpiece of a series with you. Once again I just wanna just say thank you for such a great series and reaction. Now shall we see how the ending of book one goes in your eyes😊😊😊 also how often do you upload, cause I look forward to your videos. Ok I’m done rambling😂🖤😂🖤
That’s good with me I’ll keep an eye out can’t wait to see more, also do you have a favorite character? Wait you already have the reactions they just need edited right? If so who is your favorite character in book one😂😭. I was trying to think on how to ask the question😭😂
Although its taken you 2 years to finish Book 1 of ATLA, I am so glad to see you have been enjoying this wonderful piece of media!! Aplogies for commenting late on such a great video, but I also want to thank you for giving my artwork a shout out and Im glad to see you really liked it!!
Glad to see ya back man, missed ya tbh but it’s been a rough few years for everyone so everyone understands (also the general didn’t just “die” it’s worse, he got dragged into the spirit world to get jumped by the water spirit and moon spirit possibly forever)
hell yeah, what a great finale! btw no pressure if you don't have an answer, but how will the uploads go now that we've finished book 1? will the focus just be on avatar until the show's totally done or are you going to split it with another series?
Honestly not sure yet! I do wanna try and get some of the miscellaneous videos out of the way, while focusing on Avatar. But I think we're perhaps _maybe_ *_possibly_* nearing that point where I can start something
I do appreciate the consistent uploads but school should come first for sure! Please don't burn yourself out. owl house is gonna be hype as hell too. but yes pls take your time the iroh and zuko scene this episode 😭 so fucking sweet man. and yes the colors during that episode are the coolest.
The detail of Zuko's family history revealed in the comic titled "Search". You must read every Avatar comic after you finished watch the entire animation series. :q
This ain't Amphibia dude 😂 /j But in all seriousness though, this show has very impactful season finales, is such a well constructed show About the reactions, as long as you feel well and with the energy to edit, don't pressure yourself, you're doing great 🙌
