Last week I watched Avatar in its last five episodes. The story is truly remarkable. I thought he was really going to end the fire lord Ozai’s life. But to think that taking away his fire bending skills is possible it’s twist that I did not anticipate. Since in the past avatar they all killed their enemy, but for Aang it’s really heartwarming, I even couldn’t stop my tears from falling, and it is so amazing.

Toph, Katara, Zuko, Soka and the others are really made themselves into extraordinary characters. The play watch was also cool, I never seen such series as that, putting a play about the series itself. It is very silly but it really made sense. It makes the character realizes their potentials, on how to deal with every serious situation and by watching themselves, they knew that the play was just a mere narration of their life depending on how the director wants to portray.

Moving on, ever since they knew the comet would come, and the fire country would be unbeatable, Aang was being paranoid on how to defeat the fire lord, and worse is to kill him to end the war, and he will fail to do it his friends and the people around them will be in great danger. Even the past Avatar did their responsibility and ended up with killing their enemy but Aang don’t want it to. Fortunately that Lion turtle just came out of nowhere, and give him the wisdom.

Furthermore, as Aang faces the fire lord, he still hesitant to end his life, he even reaches the avatar state just to defend himself. By the help of the lion turtle’s wisdom he realizes that he still could do the most effective way to defeat their enemy without killing them. That event was really surprising, I never thought he do that. I was really looking forward on defeating the fire lord, or critically injured him to end their fight, but since it ended up like that I guess that the end of it. I was really hoping that they will make it as open ended and somehow made a sequel. But is also a good thing that it ended up like that, and for sure the viewers were really satisfied. As how it ends, it was clearly a happy ending.

Rating: 9 out of 10… a very impressive western animated series. It was really a breakthrough for the western animator. If you guys haven’t watch the whole series you should watch it again… here’s a link… enjoy the series, just don’t pirate the series ok. And thanks for avatarbending they give me a chance to watch the series.
