If the finale leaks, and anybody finds it...Well, don't keep secrets. Leave us a trail of breadcumbs. Pretend I'm saying a lot more clever things.

There are new clips for episode 11 if you want. Also I read the reason why nick.com does not upload episodes on the day it airs is because someone leaked episode 4 from its servers the day before airing.

bahaha

I've been visiting Nick's pages every time they upload a video, but I never actually watch there. Maybe it doesn't help anything, since they have ads in the video, but I'm not waiting extra time to watch an episode that is just going to take forever to load anyway.

I've also grown more annoyed at Meelo, and Jinora is the best.
tbh the fact that they have to use Meelo's kind of crude humor at all just screams the writing isn't as strong in this series :/ Shame really.

Oh, come now. There's room for fart jokes in a children's tv show. I know it has a huge adult following, and it has the expectation of high quality writing, but it's still a kid's show.

Don't tell me you didn't find this Meelo scene funny. Then again it was more about the other character's reaction.

Yes, there's room, but there's absolutely no need for it. TLA got along fantastically without fart humor and I'm pretty sure LoK could have done the same.

IMO it especially clashes with the relationship bullshit the writers also threw in for the fangirls. Aaaaggghhh

While not farting there were scenes such as Aang going into the spirit world and trying to sit comfortably on Roku's dragon while the rest of the cast see Aang in questionable positions.

I don't mind the crude humor to an extent, it's just that sometimes it falls flat. The scene this episode of him and Lin was good though.

Whoever it was who mentioned Yangchen last page, what more do we need to know about her?
She was probobly THE most ruthless person in the whole series, and she was so feared by the world that the next avatar was pretty much uneeded.
She was very much an 'ends justify the means' kind of person.
She thought that she had an omniscient morality lisence.
When Aang compalins to Sokka that he can't go around wiping out people he doesn't like, Yangchen would be all for it.

It was more of a way to get the airgirls to reconnect with their tradition if they feel uncomfortable about getting their heads shaven when they earn their arrows. I would think they would object to it due to mingling with other cultures and seeing that women from other cultures value their hair and they have no role models to look up to in regard to that so they see statues of female airbenders in order to be more convinced to preserve the endangered airbender tradition.

And I am fine with not seeing the past avatars before Aang.

Hmm...I was thinking more along the lines of this:

"So you don't want to get your heads shaved? This is Avatar Yangchen. She was a crazed Psychopath who terrified the world and wasn't above killing innocents for the greater good. If you shave your heads you can be just like her!"

Well Jinora thought that that the novel plot about having a country burned down and jumping into a volcano after being rejected by her crush was romantic so it might not be such a bad idea after all.

I have never heard anything about Yangchen being a psychopath, or anything. She did say she wouldn't hesitate to kill bad people - and would you? The fire lord had ended world peace and brought about a hundred years war. Now the current fire lord is trying to finish the job, conquer the world, and destroy the balance - that thing that the Avatar exists solely to protect.

It's all there in the manuel.

Kyoshi wouldn't hesitate to kill bad people, but Yangchen was something else entirely.

Source? Link?

I never heard of this either. I thought since she was an airbender she would value life rather than start a genocide, which is what you're making it sound like.

Yeah, I just looked her up on the wiki. The most it said was she'd do "whatever it takes" to keep peace. So I'm sure she blasted a would-be tyrant or two. You're definitely making her out to sound like Hitler or some shit.

She was so effective there was peace for an entire generation after her death, so I can imagine her making an example out of some mother[radio edit]ers.

Secundum is straight-up making things up though.

No, I can't remember what it was called.
There was a flash game released after series 2, where Aang had to reconnect with his past lives in the spirit world.
It was touched upon in the comics too.
