Avatar: The Last Airbender

I was once again addicted to a certain anime entitled Avatar: The Last Airbender. I started watching the episodes three or four weeks ago. At first, I wasn’t really interested and I just watched the first 2 episodes just to pass time or to wake me up whenever I feel sleepy. However, as I watched the next episodes, I was captivated by the story, the characters and the moral lessons.
The show is aired on Nickelodeon. There are, as of now, three books/seasons: Book 1: Water, Book 2: Earth, and Book 3: Fire. The last book hasn’t been released yet and Avatar fans are anticipating its released which is scheduled on September 21 this year.
I finished watching Book 2 last week and I’m very excited to watch the next season. I tried very hard to search for the next episodes but I can’t find a single clip that will show me a peek of what’s going to happen next.
What I like best about this anime is the plot. The story is not only for kids but also suitable for adults. To qoute FPNYC.com:
The plot is refreshing but not foreign and works from a construct of emotional strength and technical intelligence that is often lacking in kids’ shows these days, simply because the creators often underestimate the children the shows are made for. Avatar does the opposite, if that makes any sense. It treats children not as adults, but as children with the full capacity to feel deeply, to regret, to hate, to love, to worry, to manipulate, and even to fail, which in the past would not have been an option.
As for me, this is one of the best animes I’ve watched yet and I will strongly recommend that you watch this if you’re looking for something that’s beyond ordinary.
