Anyways, back to the topic. I was watching Crossroads Of Destiny (again) and taking notes of the fighting styles. Azula's fighting style has a scary alikeness to the Hyuuga Gentle Fist. Ty Lee looks a lot like Lee too. Thats all I can actually remeber.... |
CRoD was awsome!! But now it makes Avatar look more like starwars.

Yeah, I too particularly care for his character despite certain circumstances that have been??inacted due to his descisions and actions.

| Eh, Star Wars is imbedded deep into pop culture, its gonna have a lot influence on basically everything. And in terms of the show, its always kinda been that way, I mean Mark Hamill does voice Ozai. Which kinda isn't saying that much, its pretty much all he does now, cartoon villains. He's one of "those guys", Shatner, Adam West, etc. |

Naruto is adorable. He's the main reason why I find the anime entertaining (the original) and??disregard all that limited animation??crap,??his little antics are just so, eh.??And??although he's not at??"annoying",??I sincerely hope that they do better with Sokka next season.??As??for similarities;??Azula and Neji (prior to developement). Both advanced,??prodigy martial artists who are firm believers of divine predestination. Plus they both have a little??thing for speeches.

I don't take it so hard on her due to seeing it in terms of technicals and archetypes. Basically, I'm too aware of the fact that??the guys behind Naruto chose to develope Neji, whereas the Avatar crew just needed to draw attention away from the fact that people were starting to figure out, "ya'know, for a villian, Zuko isn't??very cartoon villian-y."??So what??do??ya do? Bring in an even??bigger, more open, overly-laid on??villian bad??bad character.??Extra for one-liner spewing sidekicks. Really just hoping that they decided to save all that actual character developement??for the next season.
yeah we get alot of those in here ....Alot of this avatar stuff was copy from other shows ...bending earth ??? teen titans ...Terra....
not mention other shows..Earth fire water and air are always the main elements in a story ,,,

I wouldn't use copy at all. They're (Avatar, Naruto, Xiolin whatever, Captain Planet, list goes on) are just modern interpretations of foundational/traditional ideas that have been around for quite a while. As a result, people draw allusions when they're actually just inevitable similarities. Which is natural, since they're all usin the same basic idea. Oh and That's Western for Eastern its usually Earth, Fire, Water, Metal, and Wood. |

Kinda cut and dry there don'tcha think? I mean yeah, it really doesn look like they won't??be doing anything with her, but wouldn't it be nice though???Regarding her character,??the way I've??always??seen it, one of the main influences behind Avatar is Miyazaki movies (animation, major female characters, six-legged mammals, etc), and if you've ever seen any of them, you'll notice he tries to make everyone, even the inquitutous character, as three-dimesional and admirable as possible. Perfect example: the villianess from Princess Mononoke. It'd really be nice if they did something like that with Azula, but yeah, probably not gonna happen. Ozai's not all that hot either. Eh, pun.

The??face thing is out??I honestly??don't think its neccessary to??see it??just to judge??his character.??Seriously yeah its too soon to call??anything but??so far he's done a pretty good job of saying "In case you missed it, I'm pretty much the bad guy." But it can't be helped, I mean he does??got a lot of things going against him (Mark Hamill). Huh,??come to think of it, the??only??part of him??we really haven't??seen??are??his eyes. Anywho- http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/36346076/
