A year after the events of “Avatar: The Last Airbender”, the world is at peace. But an ominous promise made on the night of celebration haunts the young Avatar.

Hi, we are the official community of the "Book 4: Air (Restoration Project)." It is a community-made show bringing together pro VAs (from anime and video games), composers, writers (one who wrote promo materials for Avatar: The Last Airbender), sound engineers, comic artists, and more to create a pseudo-Book 4.
Using the official comics as well as original materials to flesh out the story, completely reorchestrated versions of the original soundtrack as well as new music, the project is creating a fully-dubbed and scored motion comic!
We’ve even recreated the Tsungi horn, a fictional instrument created for ATLA using a complicated audio process called “convolution” to combine the sound of a duduk and a trombone. That’s the haunting instrument you hear in the Blue Spirit theme.
Help us make the rest of Book 4, including original content! Кино
This is so awesome!! I'm blind and always wanted to read the comics after the show ended. I'm so glad I found this... Lol and Toph's blind joke about the fireworks made me laugh out loud. Thank you all for doing this and hope you continue. 💙
We are so happy to hear that our project has made it possible for you to experience the comics! Accessibility is one of our main goals so this comment made our day! We hope we can do the comics justice so everyone can enjoy them.
man who left this comment then huh?
@@blepped5959 There are apps that help blind people read and use speech-to-text to write.
Maybe a relative wrote for them?@@blepped5959
right

Everyone celebrating saving the world: :D
Zuko: I want you to end me.
Zuko always failing the vibe check!
Yesh, let's bring down the mood, why don't you Zuko?
@@Book4Airsmh at least he’s cute
I choked when I read this 🤣
I love this channel
Sokkas voice actor is doing an AMAZING job capturing Jack de Senas original performance
That’s Grant Corvin! Wait until you hear him in episode 2. He’s also a professional singer and he gets a whole song in that one.
I agree. Sokkas voice is awesome!
@@Book4Airget a new Aang va pls
@@myron9 yeah i agree tbh, aangs voice actor sounds not at all like aang
@@foreshadowed.At least It's not the Ember Island players
It's kinda sad that Zuko has to deal with all the fire lord stuffs and didn't get to be happy, have a tea with uncle Iroh and relax and spent time with his friends.
"Heavy is the head that wears the crown..."
It's just an endless struggle. One must imagine Sisyphus happy
It’s crazy to me how fine the Gaang was just killing Zuko
We like to think that Aang and co didn’t mean it when they agreed. They were just saying whatever Zuko wanted to hear so he’d stop killing the vibe and calm down.
Yeah its kinda messed up but zuko technically as close to the group as the others were if that makes sense
The comics are so out of character it’s crazy lmao. That’s why I don’t consider them canon.
@stargirIll yeah it reads like fanfiction too. Aang enters the avatar state and can't control himself? Bro he already underwent an arc to fix that and they just forgot about it to fabricate conflict.
@@Raigaara he can still enter the avatar state in rage
All the voice actors are amazing, but I love Zuko, Ozai, Toph and Sokka the most, they're done so well
Thank you so much 🥺💖✨
Sokka is spot-on.
didnt expect them to sound exactly like the actual VAs but they all did really well except for aang. with everyone else it doesnt take much of a stretch of the imagination to hear the original VA voices from the show in this vid, but with aang, the fact it sounds nothing like him is just too jarring, not to mention his VA changed a quarter of the way through. still gonna try to stay immersed anyway. this is the closest we'll ever get to an animated book 4. i still dont like aang's va tho, just trying roll with it.
Your Zuko's voice is pretty good but the accent is on the wrong note :)
@@sphinx3749The change in VA part way through is due to a time skip. Aang and Toph both have a younger VA and an older(present) VA. This is due to them being the youngest of the Gaang, so their voices experienced the greatest change during the time skip. Puberty is wild.
People like Zuko never go bad. The simplicity of their heart always generates brokenness.
Me hearing Oogie and remembering what Tenzin’s Bison was named
HAHAHAHAAHA
I think tenzin also explained that he named his bison that after his parent’s love, which is actually so cute
I guess he doesn't like his bison
I had the same reaction as Toph when I heard the "sweetie" thing.
The relationship feels weird idk why
@@roshanxd4499 she was his mom for like 2 entire seasons xD
@@MeannMugginn yeah thats probably why. never really felt like a romantic dynamic till the 3rd season towards the end of the show
@@roshanxd4499 That’s crazy, cuz I felt it from their very first moment together.
@@birdiewolf3497 … you want to go penguin sledding? … 😂😂😂
“My father taught me to be always loyal to my nation,to my people, that’s something you never learned from your father!”- well because his father was a heartless psychopath who banished him and never got to learn from him
Oh, and don’t forget about the fact bro permanently marked him on his face
This woman so mad she didn’t do her history on Zuko 😂😂
20:52 Aang's epic voice crack was life sustaining. 🤣
Whoever voiced him here, has my genuine appreciation.
Kid Aang is Matt Sinclaire
Teen Aang is Ryoma Ishizuka
Thank you so much! That’ll mean a lot to them. I’ll pass along your kind words.
Sokka & Toph's voice actor & actress are spoooot on man.
Thank you so much 😭😭😭
@@kaukau217 You must be Toph. 😝 very nice 👌 Quite welcome 🙏
@@SamuTheFrog Indeed I am! How very astute ✨️ And thank you kindly once again 😊
also mais voice bro...
awesome job!@@kaukau217
I'm glad everyone's liking the improvements we've made here and there. Looking forward to showing you all more episodes in the coming months!
It’s not an improvement
@@Him7324 At the time of that post, we did a different release in my channel. There were some editing goofs here and there and we fixed it for this upload. As much as we could at least. Thanks for watching though! Sorry it didn't do it for you.
@@WrBlPro nah ignore him, this is so amazing, keep doing what you do, i love this so much
Although I would suggest getting a teenager (12-13) to voice Aang, he sounds to much like an adult, but I think that his voice is PERFECT for an Adult Aang or maybe Ikem when you do the Search, I think what I suggested is the perfect piece to the puzzle! thanks ❤️
@@dart763 Appreciate the feedback. There's a part of me that agrees with it. I'd probably would've gotten someone younger too, if it was me casting Aang (my other coshowrunner gave me Aang!). But, if I may, I'm gonna explain their reasoning. I had a lot of doubts about it. But I get it.
After watching the original series and reading the comics and recording two issues, I pretty much understood this way. Aang has a bold way of talking as a kid that he would get something of a deeper voice when puberty hits (in relation to Aang and not his voice actor Zach Eisen). Kinda like how Sora's voice in Kingdom Hearts is, or as my fellow coshowrunner put it, Yuri Lowenthal.
Aang is actually 14 in the comic. Ending of the series, he's 13, then there's a time skip. Then Aang kept getting taller, and we don't want to change the voice constantly for the sake of cohesion.
There's also the fact that he and Katara have talks about getting married, they didn't want to make them sound too young. Watching other people's comic dubs - not that they're doing a bad job, mind you, it has more to do with personal feelings than anything - it kinda disturbed us hearing a kid voice talk about that to someone who's voice had developed when it came to scenes like that.
So, that's why they went with me in the end.
I get it though. Before all this and had it been me casting Aang last year, I would've gotten someone younger. Not necessarily ULTRA young, but more like a Scott Menville or Greg Cipes than a Yuri Lowenthal. Around that ballpark. But I'm happy that they went with me.
I'd love to voice Adult Aang though. But I doubt I'll ever get the chance to, considering they're movies. hahahaha I'm too low in the totem pole to audition for that. For all I know, they probably got their Adult Aang already.
"you ready sweetie? I'm ready sweetie!" is the best quote ever
Things are about to get oogie around here....
better than a expensive as hell live action and made with 10x more love and passion and understanding of the original world/characters/arcs/comedy
I'm convinced the people behind the Netflix show have love and passion for the source material. But they also have a budget, and they're doing it in live action. It _can't_ be as good as an anime original if their budget was ten times larger.
There's a group of fans that think Avatar "got good" in Season 2 when characters started being more complicated and "the goofy kid stuff" was less there. We all take from ATLA what we want … I think the showrunners are in that camp, though. And I'm not sure they understood the Spirit World at all. But their heart is in the right place-and their portrayal of life in the Fire Nation for Zuko and Azula was worth the price of admission.
@@knghtbrd Season 1 of ATLA is way better than people using mere memory from 10 years ago give credit to, and the Live Action has one giant budged for each episode, but even tho it doesn't translate well to live action (therefore it shouldn't have been made) people are judging the shitty writting quality, exagerated exposition, it seems way less mature that the original, and treat the audience like fucking dumb puppets, sometimes is pretty, sometimes the wide-shots are cool, but the same can be said to rings of power, and LOTR fans didn't cave as much as the Avatar fans, we are to complacent on consuming garbage, not only in midia but in real life aswell
I love sokka’s voice when he’s screaming “hey guys, AHH!!”
The way Zuko and sokka was vouce acted was GOLD,and aang and kataras voices were alright,but their personalitys,perfect
Thank you! We feel so fortunate to have the cast we have and appreciate the support.
Zuko is Cade Watts
Sokka is Grant Corvin
Aang is Ryoma Ishizuka
Katara is Stephanie Pines
I’ll pass along your comment! I’m sure they’ll appreciate it greatly.
yeah! they got Katara's personality right even if the voice didn't resemble. I loved Ozai's too, it gave me chills. Aang threw me a little ofguard 😭
Why did zuko sound GENUILY SCARED during the promise part
I spit my drink out at "Ash makers"
How did we get ATLA slurs before GTA 6
They’ve got “snow savages” and “dirt people” too! Wild…
Fire tossers was also said in Legend of korra 12 years ago
@@Immortalizz02what's that? Is that that fan fiction?
@@Jiub_SN Nope it's a sequel show made by the same writers :)
I'm so quoting that last part
THE VA FOR OZAI IS JUST 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
WOW!!!
How is this project still so under the radar?!?? Truly amazing work you guys outdid yourself!
If I were Bryke, I'd ask Nickelodeon and Dark Horse to leave this project alone. If they were willing, I'd quietly reach out to the people behind it and clarify: As long as it's available non-commercially (particularly due to the trademarks), the option to ignore it exists. Can't endorse or support it, but the option to ignore it exists as long as they aren't required to defend some legal assets.
I don't know this happened. It could've.
I am so glad to be a part of one of the least toxic and enthusiastic fandoms. I love this project.
I love how it seems Aang is making is own way as an avatar. Through out the show he relied heavily on what passed Avatar's advised him too. He's making his way. So cool to see the development.
The ending perfectly captured the way certain episodes would end just like the show, and made me want more. 10/10
This came out even better than the first. I can't wait for the second episode 😆
It’s already out.
@@coletrain583 It was already released when you commented this, when he commented it 10 months ago, it wasnt released
Need this adapted in animation not by Netflix, but by the original creators in their new studio!!!
We’d animate it if we had the money!
Looking forward to Avatar Studios and hoping for the best!
This is such an awesome project. Im so happy a team of dedicated fans went through all the trouble of voice acting and animating and sound mixing the continuation of ATLA. This is what we needed before Legend of Korra. Thank you to the entire Book 4: Air (Restoration Project) team and all you've provided us fans :)
I love this story so much it shows how Sozin’s original idea devolved over the years
Zuko looks like he aged 15 years, Its hilarious its been like less than 5 years since the events of Sozens comic. ( In story of course )
Goes to show how much one ages while under stress. I mean, look at Abraham Lincoln before and after his term as President.
"Haven't you heard knocking sokka 😂😂"
Ozai and Zuko scene was quite "real" and touching sometimes
the voice acting for this is SO GOOD it really captures the emotions of the scenes and thank you for making these comics accessible
Amazing, I read the comic a while back and you did it justice. While the first time I heard the voices I got a bit thrown off by the different voices, it didn't detract after that. Everyone sounded like an alternate voice actor for the character. Editing was great too. Nice transitions and animated stills like Appa flying.
Ozai’s voice actor is spot on
Thank you! That’s Jakob Dillon as Ozai. All his Mark Hamil voices are so good!
Incredible performance, big fan of the project, keep up the great work!
The “ dark one” is literally the best student
This is actually so good! Keep going, this is officially Avatar Book 4!
I love Zuko's voice here...so soothing🔥
That’s Cade Watts! Playing Zuko is a dream come true for him so he will appreciate your kind words. Thank you!
While I find Aang's voice to be a bit jarring (no disrespect to the VA, just didn't expect Aang to sound like that), this was fantastic!!
Sokka's voice was soooo accurate!
Thank you! That’s Grant Corvin as Sokka. Believe it or not, he also did Sokka’s singing voice for episode 2!
broo years ago when my cousins were over we used to binge avatar the last airbender in the basement. good old days haha.
You can just substitute the work 'Kill' and 'Killing' for 'End' and 'Ending'. The bold makes it absolutely clear that was the intent, but the property being content-locked at YA-12 made it impossible.
The new additions in the intro were a really nice touch for this version!
Angs voice actor sounding a bit like the gal in the recounting fire nation propaganda play, just sorta is hilarious.
Hey, like Toph said! That was a reflection of the truth! 😂
Sokka: "First of all, you are supposed to knock when you go INSIDE a building!"
Honestly, Sokka was kinda right.
The curse of being Sokka. He’s often right but he’s kinda rude about it. 😂
Why did I just discover this now? The voice actors are spot on especially the sound effects!!!
Thank you so much!!!
The dubbing is absolutely amazing!
The impersonations are pretty good too.
Thank you for this! I have seen others, but the narration was top notch. And I love how you added the original intro into only updated!
Thank you! We love Avatar so much. 😊
Zuko was NAILED
Thank you! That’s Cade Watts as Zuko. He’s a huge Dante Basco fan so this will mean the world to him.
Im gonna pretend like toph didnt just some how knew where Appa was and launched up, AND HOW DID TOPH KNOW THEY FLEW OVER THE SCHOOL
I mean… Iykyk 🤪😆😏✨
She could probably hear them very well....?
@@kbye2321THEN HOW DID SHE KNOW WHERE TO LAUNCH
@@rafifakhrie8974 She could hear where they are... and decide where to launch based on that...
@@kbye2321 you know you need insane accuracy for that right?
Ho-Ly-Crap everyone did AANGMAZINGLY! Proud to be a part of the team and super excited for everything going forward. You are all so inspiring.
This is legit a perfect continuation to the show. A wonderful and amazing blend of nostalgia and new. Hats off to everyone.
The voice for Aang is what I pictured Aang sounding like before I watched Avatar
This is awesome ! This is precious for preservation and its very well edited too
zuko really ruined the whole vibe while they were on appa like damn you couldn’t have waited until we landed 😭😭😭 but this is sooo good!!
Aang agreeing to anything just to shut him up before he kills the whole mood! 😭
Our boy not only has trauma, but is now in a position of governance. Meaning he is being hit with that trauma in the face every single day.
this is amazing, practically brought the series back to life
Wow, it's like the actual voice actors came back. Well done for doing this. You should be so proud.
DMAN!!! i love the voice acting! ZUKO-TOPH even they made ang evolve from his preteen years they did this so WELL!!
Thank you so much!!! 😭💖✨️
This was such a lovey comment! I passed it along to the cast and crew. Thank you so much!
Came across this by incident. i am amazed! This is truly a masterpiece and i can tell made with love! Thanks A LOT for the ton of work you put in there! ❤
Holy shit this is just insanely well done! The sound effects, the voice actors. It's just abundantly clear a ton of love and effort went in here and I need it to be known how much I appreciate it as someone who's wanted to read these but is too lazy to read just know you've made this far more immersive to me. Thank you kindly ❤
Zukos voice actor is so goood
Thank you! That’s Cade Watts. He’s a relative newbie to anime, but he just packs so much emotion! I’ll pass along your kind words. 🤗
it's too soft. zuko has a stronger voice
😍😭This amazing! I never got the chance to read the comics! 😩My algorithm really did gods work to bring me this video! The work you guys put into this just makes my inner child so happy! Thank you so much!
Your comment makes US happy! Glad you enjoyed it.
it’s insane how accurate the voice actors are 👏‼️
i can't believe I didn't find this sooner! The voice acting is superb, you can tell everyone did their best to match not only the original voice actors but also the feeling of the comics, and I loved the way the panels are animated! Subtle details like Ozai smiling and the effects on certain words in the dialogue were so thoughtfully done. i don't even really like the comics very much but you guys have done a phenomenal job here! please understand that it's a compliment when I say that I absolutely hated hearing aang and katara say "sweetie" out loud hahaha
Hahaha! I love that Sokka says what the audience is thinking. OOGIE!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’ll pass them on to the team. That’ll mean a lot to them!
I literally had my jaw all over the floor, after finding this dubbed comic version of yours. So many voiceactors and different effects! Thank you.
This is AMAZING. The effort to deliver such feeling
I was so hooked through the entire episode, you guys did an amazing job with the voice acting, editing and music. Everything was perfect 😭
Netflix should have continued the series instead of the live action remake, this is 10 times better!
Having an official Book 4 would've been amazing!
I wouldn't trust Netflix with that 😅
@@emdove You're right, we can't trust Netflix with anything these days.
OMG THIS IS AMAZING! Great job of the voice actors and editors, thank you so much! Sending lots of love from Brazil!
I didn't read the comics, so I don't really know how this plays out, but my first thought is "Aang should let Zuko talk to Roku".
This nationalism thing gives Ozai too many options to manipulate Zuko just like it happens in our world, but Roku knows how to deal with it (at least better than Aang or Ozai do).
A
I like the part when everyone cant say kill bc its a cartoon show😂😂
I'm blown away, you have done a fantastic job of bringing this story to life. Voice acting was incredible, you really captured alot of the small nuances in each of voices. 10/10
OH MY GOSH ITS LIKE HAVING NEW EPISODES OF AVATAR❤❤❤❤❤❤
The arguing is so good❤️
Thank you so much!
That’s Stephanie Pines as Katara and Grant Corvin as Sokka.
They really did sound like siblings here!
HOW HAVE THEY NOT ANIMATED THIS YET
this is so amazing,I can't wait for episode 2 🤩💖
this is so good!!! thank you guys for doing this, almost feels like i’m watching the show for real! :)
Simply incredible, this is filling a need within me I didn’t know I had. We deserve a book 4!!
Someone else already touched on this, and I know you guys are familiar with all of my Azula flirting super chats in the live streams as of late, but I just wanted to reiterate how incredible this is as a blind person. Like the previous comment that addressed this had stated, I too always wanted to read the comics but wasn’t able to. Finding someone to help me was awkward at best, and I gave up on it after a while. everything you guys do is incredible. You make my day every time you upload, and we all appreciate the hard work you put into this.
This is so good! I’m so glad you guys are making more episodes! Great voice actors as well! 😊
This is really awesome. The voice acting, the music, the transitions. You guys really turned this into a legit Avatar tv show :)
The Aang voice actor reminds of the girl who played aang in the episode where they go to that play in book 3
SO AMAZING! A must-watch for any Avatar fan!
This is very well done! I didn't expect this much quality from a RUclips video
So well done!
I love how Aang couldn't end Ozai because it "goes against the monks' teachings" but he was literally almost about to kill Zuko just because he tried to restrain his girlfriend. This goes to show that Aang is 100% simp
Frrrr😅
Aang gotta be the biggest simp ever bro.
Fantastic job to everyone involved! I’m about to binge these tonight.
After how many years, the algorithm gods deemed me worthy of finding such a gem 🥺 tysm
I'm so happy this exists
Omg I love this series!! Please make more episodes. All the voices actors are really talented!✨✨
Polished up nicely and looking fantastic can’t wait to see more
This channel deserves all the support!
How did I not know this existed!!
So well done.
I'm binging this now
You guys are amazing, tysm for creating this adaptation.
I am sooo thankful for this. This is amazing!!
Amazing job. Its like watching the show again.
This channel is amazing how this has not gotten more recognition is beyond me. From an another Avatar fan I absolutely love it here!
This comic is surprisingly mature and phenomenal voice acting, I am loving it!❤
wow, this project is amazing. I read the comics, but this is next level. you can be proud!
I knew that the ending of Book 3 was too good to be true just peace and love and all that. This goes a bit darker then i expected.
Whoever did this.This is truly awesome
I love how this shows both Aang and Zuko still have so much room to grow as characters after ending the 100 year war. MY ONLY ISSUE is with Katara and Aang calling each other "sweetie." Nicknames/pet names to show that they are affectionate for each other are fine but if you're gonna do that, "sweetie" lacks any depth and really makes the characters fall flat.... and thats besides the cringe or "oogie-ness" of the act.
Katara and Zuko are better for each other anyway change my mind.
This is amazing!
