    She wasn't exactly flying, I would call it more like propelling. She can only boost herself for so long until her momentum dies and she has to land someplace. I still think it's a pretty awesome ability. I didn't think her fight with Zuko/Sokka was tacky; Azula definitely underestimates Zuko's new firebending technique and she never paid attention to Sokka before, which almost lead to her defeat.

    I don't want spoilers in the Stuff You Don't Normally See thread, so here's something that belongs in there.

    This screenshot:


    ***SPOILER***


    Reminds me of the sketch seen in Comic Con 2007 in San Diego, where Azula's face is scruched up and she looks really mad. I'm sorry for the lack of pictures but I can't find it and the screencaps at ASN don't work for me.

    Anyways, gawd Azula's gonna die. My favorite character is gonna die, I mean it's not a good sign when a character's only friends BETRAY her and you previously saw a trailer of her going insane. Aww I'm so sad. I mean what Mai said to Azula was harsh (and maybe, quite maybe contracting Return to Omashu where Mai was kinda happy to see Azula) due to her saying she loves Zuko more than she fears Azula...Now if she had placed fear with a more friendly term I wouldn't be so sad.

    And Ty Lee? Wow, really I didn't see BOTH of them going 180 on her; maybe one or the other but not both. Some even thought Azula would do the betraying, but yeah..

    OK the eps were awesome! Suki and Sokka reunited again; Suki holding out against Ty Lee; Sokka and Zuko buddies (sorta?); and just wow.

    so do we have to create a "shipping after BR: spoiler thread" or can we discuss the new implications in shipping here?

    The Boiling Rock is made of win! Seriously, while I kinda knew it was gonna be prison break episode(And who they were breaking out), it kept me hooked till the last minute.

    Also, we got a new firebending guy that might be recurring: Chitzang. Very big guy easily decribed as fugly with big lips, he was still awesome. He didn't do much fighting, but I really liked the fact he Judo flipped Zuko, it's not everyday you see something like that. He only firebended once though and that was to throw back the fire that guard bended at him.

    The Sokka and Zuko tag team fight against Azula was slow, but made of win. Especially how they switched between each other in attacking and defending: Sokka tried to throw her off her balance, while Zuko defended against her fireblasts and fired back to knock her off after Sokka attacked.

    Suki and Mai owned harder than ever before. Suki's capturing of the warden was so. freaking. AWESOME! And so was Mai's fight against all the guards. They're both unofficially ninjas now.

    Yeah, anything dealing with BR should be discussed here; shippings, characterizations, quotes, screenshots, etc. My thoughts on the ships now (remember, my thoughts) is that Zutara has officially ended (for me). After all the Maiko buildup in these episodes, I see no chance of Zuko forgetting his feelings for Mai in the next two episodes and falling for Katara. I mean, if I was in Zuko's shoes, I would have nothing but admiration and affection towards Mai, she just saved his life even after he locked her in the cell. Unfortunately, there wasn't any Kataang moments in the episodes, but that just means there might be some upcoming in TSR and definitely a great deal in EIP.

    George is official and I see no chance of it ending now. Poor Toph... maybe something with Duke will happen, lol.

    agreed, i don't see zutara happening now, maiko all the way!
    and there couldn't really have been any kataang moments without katara and aang ^^

    The Boiling Rock wasn't that shippy, we did get two(Three if you count Chitzang's girl) ships in a two part episode though. I thought the main ship in TBR actually would be Sukka, so I was pleasantly surprised when it turned out how big Maiko was in the episode. Maiko just received a helluva lot of points for TBR alone, now Mai just needs to be alive.

    of course Mai will be alive, she said put them somewhere where she can't see them, I doubt she's going to kill the two closest people to friends she has.

    To Azula, they aren't friends anymore.

    Srsly. Azula was only keeping them around because they were useful to her. After they betrayed her, Mai and Ty Lee should and will be executed.

    All glory to the Fire Nation.

    Night all.

    That does seem very Azulaish, but she did say she wants them to "ROT", so an execution for them might not be planned.

    Did you notice how useful a metalbender and a waterbender would have been on this little mission? Sokka can be such an idiot sometimes!

    I didn't find this episode the best yet, found it a bit too slow. Ah well still rocked. And now we finally now who the person is walking on those head from a sketch we were shown sometime ago...It was SUKI!!! I loved her though in this episode.
