I'm gonna watch this show and LoK until the day I take me last breath.
This cartoon is leagues above any other western animation I have ever seen. It appeals to both children and adults, as its story is not only simple to follow, but also extremely good. Each character is unique and endearing, and their interactions with each other are even more so. The plot flows perfectly, each story beat hitting its mark and culminating in an epic finale. This is a show that people are still talking about over ten years after its original release, and I think they still will be for many years to come, Netflix adaptation notwithstanding.
Absolute classic series that was a big part of my childhood. Nothing more positive could be said about this series than what has already been said.
I was one of those lucky enough to watch this show at a relatively young age, 11 I think- coincidentally the same age as Aang in the show. Because of it I started meditating and understanding Chakra systems and spiritual knowledge at that age! Bless this show for all that it gave me!
FYI- If you haven't watched the show and are curious about its spiritual knowledge, reference season 2 episode 18 "The Guru" the one I am watching now!
Literally the greatest TV series of all time. A must-watch.
The ending was just wonderful. I've cried multiple times since finishing the series tonight. I will miss all the characters so much and I can't wait to rewatch someday!
What could I possibly say about this **EXCELLENT** show that hasn't already been said? I wish it had never ended. It is; to this day; my all-time favorite American-produced animated show. The recurring themes in this series (and its sequel series: _**Avatar: The Legend of Korra**_ ) are timeless. It is the perfect mixture of drama, action and comedy. As I anxiously await the Netflix-produced live-action version of this story, I just rewatched it again and it still holds up. Such a great show. If you think animated shows are _just for kids_ then do yourself a favor and watch both series.
This series is a martial arts masterpiece! The fight scenes are so well choreographed. Despite being a family friendly show the war aspect feels real and there is always a sense of danger. There are plenty of series wich are supposed to be "for adults" and don't give nearly as much thought to its battles as this cartoon does.
This is one of the masterpieces of our time, IMHO. Probably the only series I would give a 10/10.
The first episode is slow. Trust me, it gets better.
The sequel series (Legend of Korra) is worth watching, especially if you appreciate the high art/music standard.
And as others said, this is a mature story disguised as a Nickelodeon cartoon.
Absolute Cinema. One of the best animated show I have ever seen. I am gonna read and watch anything related to Avatar
I'm gonna watch this show and LoK until the day I take me last breath.
