Hey, thank you so much for covering The Tale of Tasha and Nima! We happened upon this video yesterday and couldn’t believe it was being covered after our long hiatus, but we were extremely happy to see the positive reaction to it!
We read through all the comments excitedly, and while we don’t want to spoil anything, there’s been a lot of really good observations about Tashi and Nima and the lives they’re going to live from this point forward.
Without getting into too much detail, there were some health issues and other life events that pushed us into an extended hiatus way back in 2018. In the meanwhile, TristanArtSD went on to work on a different comic - The Adventures of Terrik Zion. Sometime in 2019 we tried returning to work on TaN, but we discovered we didn’t have enough time to work on two comics simultaneously.
We’ve long wanted to return to working on Tashi and Nima - the script has been complete for many years, so all that’s left is to produce comic pages. We recently decided to get back to putting out pages again, (although at a slightly slower pace than before, perhaps once every two weeks), and when we came across this video, (to quote Ozai LOL) we took it as an “act of providence”!
If you’re interested, we’ll have info and updates available over on Twitter (@TashiandNima).
Thank you again to the ATLA fan community and a huge thanks to The Avatarist for the kind words and the coverage of our humble project!
hey what program do you use to draw your webcomic?
What's crazy to think, is that the fire nation knew that the Avatar would only be like 12 years old, so they probably specifically tried to kill kids to make the Avatar pass onto the water tribe.
My theory is they tried to cycle through the avatars to the fire nation. The southern raids was probably Azulon assuming there's an avatar there so that's why he took their benders
@@Dawid23_Gamer you're right and when we get to the show, they have moved onto the earth nation
@@Dawid23_Gamer at some point he probably realized mass genocide was not a very effective means of making sure there was actually an avatar and he should just check all the benders.
@@cageybee7221 the problem with this is that Air Nomads are nearly all benders. It's rare for one of them NOT to be an Airbender.
No, they simply went after all the airbenders, they didn’t know the age
Fire Nation: *Genocides the Air Nomads to kill the Avatar*
Also Fire Nation: *Kills everyone except the Avatar*
Well to be faire Aang had ran away at that point
@@ZekeorSomething true but still. They had one job
@@nick3xtremegaming212 Faire
Aang's in the arctic just chilling
@@shomgerry literally chilling
Imagine if the sozin comet enhanced the combustion man firebending so much that it melts their brain
nahhh
If Chi Blocked on his forehead, then yes, he'll explode REALLY BIG that could also potentially kill his dragon mount.
lol
Lol I have thought of opposite, what if during the comet their 1 shot is like a ballistic missile
Sheesh...
They used dragons to get to the temples! It never occurred to me that’s how they got there. That makes so much sense. That makes it so much worse
Then they started hunting then to near extinction for some reason even though they would’ve been a great weapon of War. Could’ve got over the Walls of Ba Sing Sa easily with them
@@mysteryjunkie9808 i mean it's a fan comic, it ain't canon. if they had dragons i'm pretty sure the avatar gang would have no way of escaping the fire nation at all. Also the ba sing se arc would either be very different or non-existence
They probably started hunting them right after the attack on the air temples. My guess is Sozin didn't want anyone to use them against him so he decided to hunt them to extinction
@@mysteryjunkie9808 _well_ dragons would certainly be an asset against ba sing sei but I don’t think it would be full proof. Not sure how well dragon wings would hold up to a flurry of boulders sent they’re way.
They actually used machines to get their
Everytime I think of the air nation genocide I feel sick and sad. It might be something from a cartoon but there are so many events in history just like it. Really shows how this kids cartoon can be very mature at some points.
And I also like how tashis friend is named jinpa, just like jinpa from the Kyoshi novels
Honestly same. Like a WHOLE civilization, even the children and babies like holy hell dude
@@lucky_ramen9803 fr dude. And I like seeing comics like these or the flashbacks aang had to his days at the air temple but then I remember they all died a terrible death at the hands of the fire nation 😕
Same! 2:51 makes me even more sad.
2:50 *
especially since the air nomads were peaceful monks too.
Literally.
I think the most tragic part of this comic is that, as someone whose watched the show, you already know NONE of the air nomads save for Aang survive. So when we follow these side characters trying to escape, we get this false hope that maybe they’ll make it out, but that feeling of dread is still there; you’re just about to see HOW and WHEN they die.
There might still be hope because after seeing LOK I'm sure that there are definitely survivors that managed to integrate themselves into the earth kingdom, away from the fire nation. Hence when the portals were re opened the descendants of those survivors awakened their dormant bending
They could've survive and integrate themselves in the Earth Nation like the guy above me said
Remember, the Air Temple Raid happen 112 before the show start, that's enough time for Tashi and Nima to grow up and each start their own family and die
Tashi and Nima might think themselves to be the Last Airbender for years until their eventual death.
their children, without guidance from air monks teaching couldn't possibly airbend properly, and would marries off other earth nation and nonbenders, diluting the airbendign ability to a level of non-existence
And their descendant only know they are Airbender during the Harmonic Convergence in TLOK several decades later
So there is almost 2 century gap of Airbenders disappearance from the world of Avatar
@@zabonk5436 wow this is my first time read that theory, I love you!
@@vantasariae6790 you know that a profile picture doesn't say someone's gender or what they look like in real life
Actually several Air nomads escaped and survived the Attack on the Air Temples. Unfortunately the Fire Nation developed ways to lure them into traps, they’re literally called nomads they were all over the globe. Of course some didn’t fall into the traps and survived. One air nomad may have made a ballsy choice and hid in the Fire nation after the Air Temples were attacked as there’s a theory Ty Lee is the descendant of an air nomad
Can u imagine Roku looking on, from the spirit world, and thinking, "I could have prevented all this."
Imagine if Aang dreamt of the events that’s happened like when he saw the Life of Roku with him and feel the amount of guilt and sadness he had from the Storm episode but hit like a ton of bricks.
Roku reincarnated as Aang.
In my opinion the whole part that the brutal and fatal moments werent showed made their impact much much stronger
yea just showing them being non-existent throughout the series serves to illustrate just how horrifying the genocide was, the Fire Nation literally wiped out the entire air nomad civilization
am I the only one who just finds it satisfying to listen to people talk about different fandoms
Me too lol
-you mean genocides-
That just sounds really wrong out of context lol
@@noori2105 what?
nope this where we geeks unite
It took a fan comic like this one to finally explain the BTS on what's happening behind the Air Temple Raids during Sozin's Comet. A lot has to be explained, would any of them survive or secondary characters quickly salvage whatever artifacts they can grab and escape. Also, Sozin have to attack the air temples all at once and show no mercy, he could not afford to just attack one and move on to the next, there would be no time to send messages.
Many of the artifacts were salvaged and some air nomads did survive. It’s all in the relics comic :D
I do think that this should’ve been in the series instead of a comic and it should provide a lot of more info. The air nomads are very spiritual so maybe some of them made it into the sprit world like Iroh and Aang could’ve talked to them
I really hope that the theory that says some airbenders eacaped to ba sing se and hid as normal earth kingdom citizens eventually losing their airbending skills due to not practicing their mediations and engaging in airbender spiritual traditions is real, i hate to believe that all the airbenders were killed, it would also explain why so many random people got airbending in ba sing se
for those who don't know in the relics comic it is revealed that some airbender survived and proved too difficult to hunt down so Sozin had to lure them out of hiding using air nomad relics. Sozin took relics from the temples and filled out mountain caves with the relics and had spies spread false rumors that these caves were inhabited by other airbenders and the surviving airbenders that went there were killed by firebenders lying in wait.
If you look on the map and assume their world is a sphere and much smaller than our the Air Temples surrounds the Fire Nation so it would be easy if he divided his military in three to attack each one
It fucked me up when that one dirty monk kid died with all of aang's friends
@@a.m_04831 coz he's the best character
I think about that kid from time to time🥺🥲
He deserved better
Good
@@tangytim6699
Why.
I just read the comic up to where it's updated and yeah I feel so "crusty" to put it lightly. They so masterfully illustrated what we all imagined could've happened, literally everything, and it was just devastating to see, all with a great narrative that makes you so invested in their lives so quickly.
"Execute Order 66, Sozin's Comet finisher" - Firelord Sozin
I really like the theory that some of the Air Nomads successfully escaped (or seceded long before, feeling not fitting in with the culture) and live amongst the other nation without showing their heritage. And that Ty Lee is the descendants of such people.
They got away with a lot for a kids show, if it was an adult show then they would probably make castlevania look like Sesame Street
i'd like to read a comic series on the fire nation's redemption in the eyes of the world. a hundred years of war don't go unnoticed, especially considering they almost committed genocide twice. that leadership they had was awfully evil and makes one wonder if zaheer was right all along...
I remember reading that as firelord Zuko had to put a HUGE amount of effort into restoring the honor and reputation of the Fire Nation in the eyes of the world.
Turns out that once the leadership changed, the fire nation started adopting the practices of other nations and ended up mass producing cartoon stories and porn. Goes to show how they're still evil.
@@KOSJ153 Well the fire nation is based of Imperial Japan so who knows what the future of the Fire Nation will be. We never got to see the Fire Nation in the Legend of Korra
@@Reezy37 the difference is that only one of them has recognized war crimes
They didn't have to atone for their crimes so they would have no reason to redeem themselves. True balance would require them to suffer and it should have come by having their capital turned to ash along with all the people living there. Also, the total destruction of all fire nation colonies without mercy by a combined global offensive.
Who here after the Netflix series? I think they got it spot on with how it went. It was really emotional you can really feel the pain
That one elder who was straight-up incinerated in her own tornado was horrifying ngl
Really puts into perspective how brutal this event really was
Fire nation used dragons: they won. Fire nation killed dragons: they lose
They killed their advantage. So dumb.
This was both sad and gruesome seeing blood and flesh in avatar was horrible but I do like how it is realistic but keeps back from being too gruesome
😲 I never thought how Sozin's comet can enhance and power up a combustion bender from the Fire Nation until watching this. It made me remember what Combustion Man from ATLA or P'Li from LOK can do and then imagine and visualize what a firebender like them can do with the enhancement or enrichment of the comet.
Also with a dragon
I would actually like a detailed overview of the 100 Year War, especially looking at the Air Nomad Genocide, the Southern Water Tribe genocide, and the conquest/colonization of the Western Earth Kingdom.
Well, it wasn't quite a genocide on the Southern Tribe in the same light. They captured Water Benders mostly
@@thalmoragent9344They civilization went from large metropolises to a few huts. The Fire Nation raided the Southern Water Tribe for 60 years. Mass death and enslavement from raids is a high probability.
@@thalmoragent9344 and the left the nonbenders alone seeing how they posed no threat to the fire Military and Southern Raiders. sure during the last raid the nonbenders from wolf cove fought and killed a few fire soldiers but the raid didnt last long and they only killed Kya
@@thalmoragent9344 exterminating a specific group of people because of their ability can be considered genocide. Man, they k*led everyone who bend water in the southern tribe
These names Tashi means “good fortune “ in Tibetan and Nima means “ sun”
Nima is also used in Sunday which is also a way people name their kids .If a kid was born on a Sunday the parents would often name their kid Nima so they don’t for get the day the kid was born on
@@manos5782as a Tibetan I can confirm these true
If Avatar was a kid's show the Air Nomads would sliced and choked to the Fire Nation like no one's business
Avatar is a kid show
I always think could you imagine if atla was produced in japan or another eastern country and how much more graphic it couldve actually been..
I would love to one day watch a gritty, dark, realistic movie/show in the Avatar universe. Maybe a story of an earth kingdom soldier on the front lines of the war, or something like that
watching this was stressful. how did avatar ever get away with genocide in a kids show?
I guess it was a different time. They could never do it nowadays. It kinda makes me mad. They say stuff like "oh no we could never put this in a kids show/movie! What would the children THINK?!" And it's like, excuse me? One of the most beloved shows of all time is for kids and it has genocide, a teenager being permanently scarred, another teenager going mad, an entire episode about animal cruelty and many more mature things you know? And now you say that children can't take that kind of stuff all of a sudden?
@@mellemadswoestenburg1296 simple we live in a society full of snowflakes
@@mellemadswoestenburg1296 No wonder kids nowadays are weak. They've been coddle.
@@demontorch 2015 called, it wants its caricatures back
@@mellemadswoestenburg1296 Appa’s Lost Days even got awards for that
All this time, all the way back when I was a kid, I never really think about what the fire nation did, seeing this now I understand why everyone really hates them, and why that small village hate Zuko so intensely. If this wasn't a kids show, Zuko is so dead when he's found out.
He defeated their most feared "guard" singlehandedly. They were scared of him, and Zuko was smart enough to get the hell out.
@@shayv2022 I just yelled at the tv in frustration when Zuko revealed to that small village who he is, knowing his Nation were hated. Then again they would probably already know he’s from the Fire Nation due to his bending but still... 🤦🏽♂️
I always wondered how strong would combustion bending be during the arrival of Sozin's comet and this met all my expectations
I always thought they used airships to get to the village, never thought they actually use dragons.
At the time, airships weren't a thing.
One thing from this show I’d love to see if it isn’t a kid’s show is how far they go with bending fight especially the bloodbending thing.
Love that they included this topic as one of the early scenes in the live-action adaptation.
All those kids got killed, which makes me cry. What kind of person kills a child?
Sozin I guess
Anakin Skywalker
@@leongregorio lmao
Ozai and possibly Azula if the final episodes are any indicator
God in the old testament
Who’s here after watching that first battle from new Netflix series
Here. When I saw the way the episode was going, I was actually surprised to find out, even without it being told to us what was about to go down and holy shit that was fire (no pun intended). That was brutality on another level.
I wish the fire bending was more amped, it’s just seemed like regular fire bending honestly
I’m two episodes in. There are some mixed opinions about the series, and I understand them. I will say, however, that the genocide was genuinely hard to watch.
We need to see all of the ATLA comics animated! No more live versions! Been supporting for a long time to only be waiting for a live movie....
Everytime I think of the air nomad genocide i cry because those airbenders didn't deserve to die like that
This was darker than I thought
Same
I hope the Netflix series actually dives deep into the stuff that actually happened
I'd like to think that actually, several Air Nomads survived the genocide, then went to live in hiding in the Earth Kingdom.
[Spoilers] That would actually explain the return of airbenders in LoK: they would be the descendants from the survivors.
One of the things I never understood about the Mass Genocide of the Air Nomads is how did fire beat out air. Even if they were supercharged by a comet all the air nomads had to do was create hurricane winds strong enough to snuff out the fires. When air works against fire it cannot survive. This is basically what you’re doing when you blow out a candle. The air blown from your lungs is pushing against the flame rather than blowing with it which would cause the fire to spread.
Or cause the firestorm
If avatar wasn't a Kids show it would be an animated"Game of thrones",
except without a bad finale
I'm glad this webcomic is getting more attention
In my fan fic it explains how some air benders survived leading to harmonic convergence air benders through bloodlines
Can you send a link? I recently got hooked on avatar fanfics and I was kinda bummed out to see some really good ones got abandoned
@@florencejohnpaclibar.1b872 look at my channel I made some videos about my fan fic
@@florencejohnpaclibar.1b872bro you never got the link 💀
The Netflix Show features Human Combustion
There’s so much potential with these art This could really be the beginning of the TV show
Let's not forgget Monk Gyattsu probably went full on Doom Slayer mode on the fire nation, he got cornered by hundreds of the best soldiers the fire nation had at the time while said soldiers were amped by the comet, yet he still took out several of them, dude went out like a boss.
Depsite the Air Nomad Genocide being one of the biggest part in the beginning of the hundred year war, We never got to see what actually happened right before or during the genocide just ruins of what came after it. We should at least get some piece from it.
It's weird not a single Airbender managed to escape.
That day was when they decided to continue the story with Korra. There never has been a better story than ATLAB.
We should have gotten a continuation of the ATLA story,pretty embarrassing we only saw these characters as teenagers and missed the rest of their lives,like they did nothing till they got old?
As for Korra excluding Book 2 i liked the series,far above other series of that type even if it wasnt as good as ATLA ofcourse
Katara said in LOK that all his friends have died and in season 3 Firelord zuko is alive
@@scroes6067 when did she say that? the only one of the gaang who is confirmed to have died is aang
@@SixNineFourTwenty first episode she said that his brother and all her friends are gone
@@scroes6067 She said many of her friends, not all. The only ones confirmed alive are Zuko and Toph.
5 Reasons The Air Nomads Were Easily Wiped Out:
1: They were pacifists.
2: They have no military to protect them from danger.
3: They were betrayed by one Air Nomad man named Afiko from the Southern Air Temple who revealed all the secret locations of all the Air Temples because he was jealous of Aang being the Avatar.
4: They were ambushed.
5: The Imperialist Fire Nation army of firebenders had the advantage because of Sozin’s Comet which enhanced their firebending, they had technological powerful weapons, and they flew on dragons to reach all the Air Temples to cause mayhem.
(Very depressing, may they all rest in peace.)
Habo-2020 I know right. It literally blows my mind how they brutally murdered a group of mostly peaceful spiritual Air Nomad people who didn’t want nothing to do with the war.
Imagine azulas character development if it wasn't a kids show.
In childhood I caught myself on a mind that bending of the elements could hurt opponents very much if it was a real skill in our world.
It would have been so cool if this was in the show. Maybe instead of the great devide, we could have had an episode titled ''Aang alone'' where Aang goes on his own and gets to witness the entire ordeal unfold in a vision and later on comes to term what happened and that what would later inspire him to recreate the air nation after the hundred year war.
But now Netflix give it a scene and it's actually good
I haven’t cried this hard in a long time. This is just heartbreaking. 😢
I hope That Day will be shown in live action
in some kind of flashbacks or whatever
This has aged well
Seriously, it would traumatize the kids if they saw the airbenders burn alive. I question how the firebenders sleep at night or do they even feel bad on what they had done.
Then again if there are little kids watching Attack On Titan from beginning to end, I don’t think they’d be traumatized of the death of the Air Nomads.
I really loved this comic. I'm sad they discontinued it. You're probably not going to be able any further pages as it's been YEARS since they updated.
"Avatar starts off light-hearted, but gets darker later on"
...there's a genocide on the third episode...
this is very attack on titan coded. it’s so brutal 😀
Attack on Avatar
Continue the story continue the story continue the story
Yes!
Thie made me cry so bad I got a headache
This is why we love this channel creativity into your Videos I hope you reach 1 million
Monk gyatso low key got a gyat
Awesome vid id love to hear more!
finished the comic on deviant art. Jesus, the page of Nima gliding over the firebenders killing everyone is haunting
Yeah! You know what I blame Sozin. It is not Fire nation fault. Sozin brainwashed everyone to convince the Air nomads are evil. That’s my theory
I can’t believe they made this it is deeply frightening and very compelling
If it wasn't a kid show, bloodbending would have been gory..
The Boys and Gen V nailed bloodbending
the part of the air nomad genocide that really fucks me up is gyatsos dead body. He's sitting in asuch a casual meditative position, dozens of fire nation soldiers at his feet dead in a fight..It suggests that gyatso actually survived the onslaught long enough to huddle in this corner, to kill off the soldiers coming toward him. But he got injured to the point he would slowly die..probably from blood loss or famine. He sat there waiting, probably for aang to return, for who knows how long.
Honestly I feel like Sokka in the spirit world episode, nuance and all be damned, these fire nation soldiers are nothing but evil savages
Yes please updates I actually wanted to see more about certain events in Alta and this was one of them
I wish we had these comics here but it's cool you read them and I watch your videos.
The fire nation should be the ones to face extinction.
Yes please. We need more.
Jesus that looks amazing frfr
This is dark 😭😭,, Just too dark😭, poor airbenders, please do more of these vids
I’d actually love now with avatar studios an adult prequel movie or series dealing with the end of Roku through the early years of the war. It could have grown with the audience who are mainly adults now (of original viewers I mean, new fans are all ages which is great!) and show more realistic violence and even handle minor gore
... so... now that the new Netflix thing happened... does that count?
The most sad thing about this is, it still happened nowadays. Even in the future
Amazing thank you!
You should totally do more
The dragon is china ,the technologically advance country while the air tribe peaceful monks are Tibetans😅the people don't get that simple thing
That's a pretty fun story, there's guys did a pretty good job at expanding the Avatar universe
Yeah now I’m an adult I’m here for the more deep graphics and story lines
If it wasn’t a kid show Toph would be cussing like crazy and zuko would too 😭💀 Katara only when she’s mad and Aang would probably just say Damn or Hell
Yeah, I really liked this series. I had not seen images so graphic since Barefoot Gen.
sozin: *Attacks Air Nomads to kill avatar and start a war*
around 100 years later
Zhao: I'm not gonna kill u avatar * orders snipers to kill THE EXACT SAME AVATAR*
Please cover this you have a great narration
I'm so interested to see what next the scenes though gruesome are well done if we ever so it animated it would have been one of the saddest and most beautiful animations in the show
Gyatso Normally: all life is sacred
Gyatso when he got cornered by firebenders: YOU WANNA MEET GOD?! LETS GO SEE HIM TOGTHER!
Akways loved avatar, seeing and hearing the details to this story is both heartbreaking and scary
