We do see Aang practice, but being the Avatar surely gives you a little bit of an edge. How on earth does he manage it? Aang does have incredible teachers like Katara, Toph, and Zuko, but being taught is only part of the learning process you have to work at learning yourself. Aang is an airbending prodigy, but a few months is really pushing it.
Not only does he get frozen and feel all the bad things are his fault, but Aang also has to master all four elements within a few months. Aang, Sokka, Katara, Toph, and all of the main cast made a real impact on many people to this day people watch the show and take something unique from it.Īang really does get the short end of the stick on this one. Many characters, even those that appear for an episode or two, are important and integral to the main story. Watching the show makes you feel like the Four Nations is a real world and the events that occur are truly happening right now.
This series proved that a deep story with complex characters in a dangerous world could be enjoyed not just by kids, but by teens, and adults alike.
One of the best kid's shows from the last decade, Avatar: The Last Airbender really showed us how it was done.
