Given the fact that the Avatar was gone for a whole century, the Fire Lord's punishment was the equivalent of sending him for a mythological creature
The greatest "snipe hunt" of all time. Truly putting the "father" in FatherLord
so sad to think about... he wanted to never see his son again.
@@kiwiparfaits iirc, at the time, Ozai believed Zuko to be the son of Ikem, that’s why he was especially cruel to him.
@@jimbenzo No he didn’t, he just didn’t treat him like his own son because Ursa secretly wished that Zuko wasn’t his son. Ozai always knew that Zuko was his.
@@merveeille4357 Yeah it's sad to see but Ozai basically hated Zuko all his life, poor bro never had a chance
This episode makes it clear that Aang, in his mind/timeframe, was playing pai sho with Gyatso a just few days before finding his mentor’s skeleton in the air temple… It’s a brutal reality check.
Oh my God I never even realized that
Something that makes Zuko's banishment even more cruel is that the Avatar hadn't been seen for 100 years, everyone pretty much assumes the avatar is gone yet Ozai still made that Zuko's condition for return, something that for all anyone knew would never happen. It was essentially a lifelong banishment just with a more cruel nearly impossible goal to dangle in front of Zuko knowing he would probably never get it. Imagine a 13 year old now, being painfully disfigured by his own father and being disowned and told to search the whole world for someone that hadn't been seen since 1923, Ozai is absolutely monstrous. Something that's also worth noting about Zuko's attitude toward the beginning is that he wasn't disregarding the lives of his men because he's selfish, he was trying to embody the kind of leader his nation and father approve of, trying to be like the ruthless general he spoke up to, but the end shows he's still that kid that spoke up in the war room, he does still care about his men even if that contradicts the "lesson" Ozai taught him.
I absolutely think Zuko was, sort of, disregarding his men, but that was only when they weren't explicitly in any danger, and it was just risky. Don't forget that he also put himself in the same danger as he put his men through.
Whats even more messed up is zukos scar is placed where it is probably from zuko flinching amd moving last second. Ozai was most likely going for the kill shot
And then to add to this, if the Avatar was somehow alive (whether as an Airbender or Waterbender) he'd be an old master and Zuko was a 13 year old kid meaning Zuko would die of he tried to fight him. Ozai gave him a death sentence.
@@randomuoutube2029No....you are reading way into this....Ozai intended to burn him not kill him
Seriously the amount of physical and mental abuse Zuko suffered is disgusting
I’m grateful that you guys pause the show during your discussions. I’ve seen so many reactors miss important dialogue because they were talking over it. And I love that you rewind to find important details. It’s very rare to see someone deduce the existence of a sister from just this episode.
100%. They do a great job.
Fr that was great
Yeah it's nice that they pause but I would prefer they save the longer discussions to the end. They keep going on tangents about plot details and questions they would've gotten answers to if they had just kept watching for a minute.
@@KaregoAtI'd be inclined to agree but sadly they cut the end discussion and leave it just for members/patrons so I'm actually glad they pause in the middle of the show otherwise we wouldn't be able to see a lot of their discussion/analysis.
The Storm and the Blue Spirit are probably the two episodes that most clearly show how good this series is.
in season 1.
Yeah definitely the two best episodes of the first season.
Don't forget the finaly of s1
23:27 the stark difference between the reactions when Zuko apologized to his dad vs when he apologized to Uncle Iroh... Heartbreaking.
All of ATLA is good, but the Storm is where it stepped up a notch. Much needed backstory from hero and villain side by side, and having them confront a similar scenario where they stick to their core and earn a small victory. It's one of the best written episodes of the whole show, and we get some great comedy from the old couple to lighten the intense mood.
Fun fact: the way the Air Nomads proved Aang was the Avatar is the same way that they choose the Dalai Lama, they pick items of the past lives and the reincarnation will be drawn to the objects. Also inventing the 'Air Scooter' made Aang a master thus why he has the tattoos at such a young age, it's one of two requirements needed to achieve Airbending mastery.
It is a fun fact but I'm pretty sure the creators regret that decision now lol
@@pabloc8808 why?
@@IgorDPortu Oh the whole thing with the Dalai Lama asking a literal child to "suck his tongue" in front of everyone
@@pabloc8808I mean that only taints the person of the current Dalai Lama, not the traditions buddhism goes along with.
"The world needs you now, you give people hope"
"But the important thing is, the avatar gives Zuko hope"
The writing in this show is on another level.
20:43 I love Iroh's face here, he's like "Holly sh!t it actually works" I mean, how do you even train that skill?
guessing a lot of theory and praying you'll never have to put any practice ahah
I always thought his look was because he still got hit which I attributed it was due to the water 🤔
@fan yilipe you might want to add a fee more lines to hide the text
20:39 The reactions by the three in turn were priceless.
@@JayJayM57 They really have a good talking points when they go full detective mode
shh... spoilers
Iroh once again showing why he the goat
And they didn't even seem to realise he changed the trajectory from zuko to him before he send it in the water.
Fire bending is bending the energy in their bodies (which makes fire, Iroh says this in the very first episode). Lightning is energy… so, you will learn more…
Their reaction to iroh's "Lightning bending" was priceless 😅
"Who's her?" "She looks like she's enjoying it!"
Oh my.
Y'all sweet summer children.
"Enjoying it" doesn't even begin to describe her lol
Yep. I was very impressed by their guesses.
That glance Aang and Zuko give each other at the end of this episode is so fuckin powerful; they don't know how much they have in common.
Fun fact: Aang inventing the air scooter was how he earned his tattoos, which marked him as a master airbender
"I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE CREW!"
Narrator: He cared about the crew.
And here we finally see Zuko's core struggle. He's a noble soul trying to earn the love and respect of a toxic family. He tries to act as toxic as they were as if that would earn their acceptance, but deep down that's just not who he is.
And we also get to see that in some ways, Aang and Zuko may have more in common than either may care to admit.
The sympathetic villain is always a compelling character, but oh so difficult to pull off well. That they pulled it off so brilliantly here is one of the reasons why this show looms so large in the hearts and minds of its fans.
I love the contrast between Ozai and Iroh in this episode. Ozai wouldn't even forgive his own son (for doing the morally right thing) while his son profusely apologized and begged for mercy. Iroh on the other hand accepted his nephew's simple apology immediately after Zuko had done wrong.
Oh just wanna point out that the avatar hadn't been seen for like 98 years. Zuko was essentially told to not come back unless he accomplished the impossible
"Fun" Fact: If you look closely you can see that the shape of Zukos scar somewhat resembles a handprint. His father didn't just throw some fire at him, he walked up to him put his hand directly on Zukos face and pressed the flames into his skin to burn him.
"the baby not gonna pop out and say 'hey i'm the avatar'" made laugh because of Korra hahahahah
Easily One Of “THE” best episodes of the series! The parallels between Aang and Zuko on the decisions they made that laid down their path phenomenally done episode!!
Remember when they visited the temple and we got a flashback of Aang and Gyatso throwing cakes at people. Well now you know that Gyatso wasn’t just throwing cakes at random strangers. He was throwing cakes at his coworkers.
“It’s not like they’re born and go, ‘I’m the Avatar, bitches!’” One girl will beg to differ 😂 (and we love that about her)
I was literally thinking the same thing
"You gotta deal with it!"
i hate her so much
Lol, love? That was a stupid ass scene
@@en4833 Sorry you hate fun 💔😔
Fun Fact: When an airbender monk masters a special technique, they earn their tattoos and are considered a master (I think). Aang created and mastered the air scooter, which is why he has tattoos and is considered a master airbender. And with how young he is, that was most likely the reason they suspected he was the avatar.
no it was because of the toys he chose when he was a baby that's how they figured out he was the avatar
@@PizzaMadeMeFat you right, should have said "it helped to double confirm he was the avatar"
Yeah the Avatar is reborn right after the previous one dies, and each nation has their own way of figureing out who it is like they show here with Aang, but normally they don't say anything until they turn 16.
Personally, I think that when Aang was in his glowing state (which will be named later) that it has a lot to do with intentions and Aang’s state of mind at the time. When he crashed 100 years ago, he was running and hiding from his responsibilities, so he was frozen. This time, he was done running and hiding, instead he was trying to save people, so he was able to leave the water.
21:00 This is why I love these guys, they not only react to the episodes but also try to explain what might be going on based on their own knowledge so far.
You guys are my favorite reaction channel ever!
This is where the series went from good to REALLY good, and considering how much the guys are already loving it, they’re in for quite a fun ride
Fun fact about this episode: the voice actor for the old man fisherman is actor Chris Pine’s father who was an actor back in the day as well :D
There is a fan theory that because of the shape of Zuko's scar, it wasn't a fire blast. The theory says that Ozai just superheated the palm of him hand and then pressed it over Zuko's eye, which to me seems crueler than if it was a fire blast. Because that means Ozai didn’t just happen to hit Zuko in the eye. Scarring Zuko over the eye was deliberate. Airbenders didn't grow up in nuclear family units and actually had a sort of mating season. So there is also a fan theory that Gyatso is Aang's biological father and that's why they're so close. Also, Fire Lord Ozai is voiced by Mark Hamill. Boom at 21:30. hahaha
Fun Fact: The firelord is played by Mark Hamil! Also when Zuko was banished the Avatar had not been seen in 100 years. Zuko was sent on a, believed, wild goose chase. Makes it all the more impressive how successful he's been due to his pure determination
It’s time for the one of the best Avatar episodes ever!! The storytelling of the hero and villain at the same time is so amazing!!
Based on some extra context we get in the comics, its more than likely Ozai was just waiting for an excuse for Zuko to screw up in the presence of significant witnesses. So he would have creditability to do as he pleased without too much discretion. Fire Nation Value tradition and this doesnt seem very traditional....
This is easily one of the best ATLA episodes. You were very close about the toys - as one of the tests to find the Dalai Lama, monks will present the child they suspect to be the Dalai Lama with a group of artifacts, some of which belonged to the previous Dalai Lama. If he can correctly identify which objects belonged to the Dalai Lama, it is considered one of the signs that he is the next Dalai Lama. Fun fact, one of the current Dalai Lama's spiritual names is Gyatso, just like Aang's teacher. I had the privilege of seeing him speak in person about ten years ago.
10:04 Yeah how weird would it be if the baby just jumped out and was like "I'm the Avatar, deal with it!!"
A really good backstory episode. Aang's flight from the air temple and Zuko's obsession with the avatar and the source of his scar revealed. Both give quite the perspective into these characters.
my theory about feeling a storm coming in your joints relates to the drop in barometric pressure that precedes the storm. Air pressure gets lower, but your body's internal pressure stays the same, so your joints expand a bit internally which increases friction between moving parts, and i think the elderly are more sensitive to it because they're more likely to have inflammatory joint diseases or worn/damaged joints
23:05 This isn't really important, so you should know that's a waterbending move. He's pushing the water away around them not to drown. It's not easy to do airbending moves under water. I'm not sure if it's even possible.
Now that you guys have seen a good amount of Monk Gyatzo, I want to say that there's a theory/rumor I heard that Momo is Gyatzo reincarnated. Most avatars have one animal guide, and Aang's is Appa. Momo also lead Aang to Gyatzo's dead body. Idk. It's a sweet thought regarding a character that doesn't get a lot of screen time but was the closest Aang had to family.
Wasn't that a scrapped idea by the writers?
@@RasmusVJS it might have been, but it's nice to imagine it's possible.
"It's not like the baby pops out and is like 'I'm the Avatar!' " xD
First episode The Legend of Korra...
@kandarayun Yeah I stopped watching it when I figured it was going to be a Rey from Star Wars kinda vibe.
I love them trying to deduce who's that lady watching the Agni Kai. I didn't notice any of that the first time I watched, but rewatching attentively you can spot many small details and references from the very beginning.
Aang is the hope for zuko to get out of the storm that rages inside of him in 23:45 , great visuals to capture the whole nature of the two of them.
A note about this episode that I think a lot of people miss: for his “shameful weakness” Zuko was banished and sent to capture the Avatar to restore his honor. But the Avatar hadn’t been seen in ~100 years. Firelord after firelord have searched for the Avatar that whole time and all of them failed. Not to mention that, as far as the Fire Nation knew, the Avatar was a very old man who had ~100 years to master the elements: who did they send to capture him? A scarred boy. Zuko’s mission was never supposed to succeed. His dad never wanted him to return at all.
"The last thing you want is a mutiny" oh I wouldn't worry much, even if those guys tried to take out Iroh in his sleep he could still wipe the main deck with them... but I'm pretty sure he'd offer them tea and ask them what was wrong before resorting to that
Yeah, Zukos Backstory! Finally one of my favourite episodes.
I was so excited for you guys to watch this episode because of how much cool shit happens in it and how much is explained and your reactions did not disappoint lol
20:40 Yes, that was intentional. Look closely and you can see him reach up toward the lightning bolt before he changes its course. 👀
10:27 Idk why it's so confusing. The avatar dies, the next tribe in the cycle knows they are next to have the avatar reincarnated to them, they watch the babies born on that day like a hawk, shwoing them the avatar's toys, and figure out which kid is the new avatar.
Thanks. I mean, Katara specifically said that in the third episode we learn about the cycle in every single intro in the episode.
You can feel static in an area where lightning will strike, that's probably how he knew it was coming
4:50 - Its because of arthritis. People with arthritis (which is generally older people) are sensitive to weather changes and it causes aches in the joints. My brother had arthritis since he was 8 and he was always super sensitive to the weather changing, especially storms.
"I'm too young to die!"
"I'm not but I still don't want to!"
🤣🤣🤣
This comment contains some spoilers
"It's not like the Avatar pops out like what's up I'm the Avatar bitches"
Me: *looks away from Legend of Korra*
Didnt happen in Legend of Korra either, she was like 3 years old or so.
It's true. I'm a young person but I can feel weather in my joints due to injuries. It is the inflammation of tissue being increased by changes in atmospheric pressure. I am in excruciating pain when a storm is coming but it starts to fade once the storm starts.
9:57 no what they mean by "we have known for some time" is that they found out that he is the one for some time .d he is the avatar since birth they are reincarnating everytime they die
18:39 she is going to be a pretty important character later i'm shocked that you guys realize her existence before she came to the series officially :O
loving yalls journey through this amazing show
4:54 As someone with chronic joint issues it’s definitely true as fuck about storms. Like I’m not good at all about reading my body when it’s talking with storms and shit, but my best friend will feel it in their bones sometimes days before the storm would hit. Good ole changes in barometric pressure
Korra be like: 10:05
Appa sized Momo would unironically a bigger menace than most of the fire nation.
You caught a lot this episode. Really fun. Especially the one with the water not freezing because its not close to the south pole. Just imagine how this would have turned out if it froze again. Goodbye world.
22:52 This is the kind of excitement I probably had on my face watching this when I was younger. I can't wait to see more of everyone's reactions but I also don't want the series to ever end. Watching the Legend of Korra w/ Y'all will also be a trip because I have never finished it.
Haha yeah if an avatar popped out and said “I’m the avatar” that sure would be shit
😂
The Avatar is always born the Avatar. It's a reincarnation thing, phrased as such in the show before, they're not ambiguous about it. They just need time to figure out who it is each generation, and it's often not so easy. Each nation is pretty huge. Fire Nation is composed of a lot of big islands. There are two whole Water Tribes and the Southern one used to be much bigger than this. The Earth Kingdom is probably the biggest of all, with many cities of all sizes. And the Air Nomads live throughout the world in 4 different temples. Each nation uses a different method to find the Avatar and they're not infallible. They once even got wrong the Avatar in a previous era and trained him for years before realizing the Avatar was another person.
I haven't see it mentioned yet, but the scar on Zuko's face initially resembled a handprint before it healed to this extent. His father didn't fire blast him. He held his hand up to his face to burn him.
This is probably my third favorite episode in book one. Aang and zukos backstory. Iroh being cool and redirecting lightning. Aang using waterbending outside of a waterbending themed episode. Monk gyatzo. Its just fantastic.
You noticed the demon girl enjoying the torture. She will be important later.
The abject horror and silence during Zuko's scream. I remember that being my exact same reaction when I was a kid
To receive the airbending tattoos one must be declared a master, which means mastering the 36 levels of airbending. Aang only mastered 35 but his invention of the air scooter actually qualified him, making him the youngest airbending master in history. That’s why he’s the only airbender out of his friends that has the tattoos
Did not realize we see her for the first time in the same episode we see Iroh redirect lightning!
The show is starting to get *intense* !
Gotta love how the excitement levels are starting to crush the ceiling ^^
I'm literally a silver patreon subscriber and yall are well into book 2 now but I gotta rewatch this reaction 😁
Ah yes, the first appearence of Azula and Lightning Bending.
You better remember them, 'cause they aint gonna show up again until season 2!
LORE TIME!!!
or I guess backstory time, whatever, this is when the series gets _real_ good.
Y'all are right about the Fire Nation being Honor Bound.
In the official TTRPG rule book, it states that the loser of an Agni Kai has to honor a verbal contract that is agreed upon by the combatants. The scar is the most brutal part, as it is supposed to be like a public brand and personal reminder of their promise.
What's odd is that the ship's crew doesn't know what happened, given how public that Agni Kai was...
When you guys reacted to uncle to that redirected lighting that was fun 😂 can’t wait for the whole show reactions
It's more prevalent in older people to feel weather in their joints, but it's possible for younger people too. I knew someone in highschool that could accurately tell when the weather was gonna get worse at was appeared to be random. When I asked him about it, he said he could tell from how his knee joints hurt and the worse the pain, the worse the storm.
I still talk to him today about the weather because he's more accurate than the news is lmao.
This is the first episode where they give us backstory about two of the most crusial characters of the series.
18:02 Ladies, Gentlemen and Nonbinaries… Mr. Mark Hamill
Hey Skips, you're a bit far from the park
"I'm too young to die!"
"I'm not, but I still don't wanna!"
It's not like the baby pops out is like "I'm the avatar bitches" is a quote i'd like for them to come back to in the future one day lol
"It's not like the baby pops out and is like 'I'm the avatar bitchesss'"
Korra: 🕺🕺
This episode is goated.
Great reaction as always nothing else to say about that without being corny, also the ice bubble Aang did back than and the air bubble Aang did in this episode has nothing to do with bending or the temperature. The ice bubble Aang did just to survive as Avatar state is mainly an defence mechanism, but Aang in this episode was drivin by his emotions that He will not let the world down again, so instead of just saving them from dieing He saved them and brought them back as Avatar state is all the past lives and the current life put together to implify his power and knowledge.
Next episode is "Blue Spirit" which is also pretty good episode, I'm tuned
I always had the headcanon that zukos crew was just random lower class fire nation citizen's...cause no way the fire nation would send actual soilders with a guy they never expect to come back when they could send randos instead...but that's just me.
Edit: fire nation is prideful and arrogant, but they aren't dumb
important , they have a traditional hierarchy society where nobles and commoners live different lives. Nobles were probably in attendance/ heard about it while commoners probably only heard rumors and that he was banished for opposing the fire lord. There was probably propaganda.
Love how exited y’all get over this show, including your theories. Always loved this show and am looking forward to watching more of your reactions on it.
I think this is the first series of yours that makes me kinda want to subscribe to your Patreon for the post-episode discussion.
Great reaction! This is definitely a fan favorite episode. The real difference between Aang’s air bubbles is that in the first one he was running away, but this time he was protecting.
10:00 it is a reincarnation thing. As soon as one avatar dies another is born into the next nation in the cycle. But the sages of each nation have to find the child and are raise due to the customs of their nation. For example Roku was told when he was a teen, Aang when he was 11 and Korra was around 8 years old
Just realized that the Monk explaining the toys to Aang is Mr. Ping from Kung Fu Panda, James Hong
edit right after: Thanks Boom for confirming it, lmao
This episode reminds me of how all of them are still kids. Aang had to carry the burden of being the Avatar in such a young age and Zuko was nearly the same age when he was banished. You can’t really blame them if you consider that they are still kids. Especially Zuko being branded and sent on an impossible Mission
2:45 they parked appa like a ship 😂
The way Aang was discovered to be the Avatar is similar to how the reincarnated Dalai Lama is found in Buddhism. Also the current Dali Lama's last name is Gyatso.
This was the episode that won over the most skeptical of people. It showed us the show had a plan and was in good hands. It wasn't just a cartoon with cool fighting, it was something deep, something that meant more, something that could leave an impact
"It's not like the baby comes out and is like 'I'm the Avatar, bitches!'" If you know, you know.
the way they can predict so much stuff from tiny deails is so good like getting azula's station from her hairpiece and positioning? quality shit
I don't know if anyone else has said this yet but if you look at the other airbending kids, none of them but Aang has the tattoos. The tattoos signify that Aang is an Airbending Master. In fact he was the youngest to reach the rank of master until the Legend of Korra series that is.
If nobody has mentioned it yet the Fire Lord is voiced by none other than THEE Mark Hamil
late but maaan this was the one episode i was really waiting for you guys to get to. definitely the best of season 1 imo. you really have to sympathize with both aang and zuko.
Imagine being 13 and forced to fight your dad who once threatened to kill you
SO MUCH foreshadowing.
So little wasted space in this episode.
10:09: Ruff:"It's not like the baby just pop out and say I'm the avatar what's up b*****s"
Korra:😳
Since you guys like Sokka so much, I have a recommendation. Try reacting to LEGO Monkie Kid, the main character, MK, is voiced by Sokka's voice actor, Jack De Sena. And there are tons of awsome and hilarious moments. Such as in Season 3, where Monkey King, voiced by Sean Schemmel (you know, Son Goku), fights against a charected voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch (Ichigo Kurosaki).
in reference to the joints and weather thing, i'm a teenager but i have chronic pain and i can always tell when it's gonna be cold because i'll get flare ups
