    I realized this but i think it was stated that they were there for a month. However, it takes more than a month or two in order to perfect or master martial arts, which bending is based on.

    Yeah, but it's a show, they can't take that long... Also she was determinded and Pakku said it himself that Katara has advanced more quickly than any other student he has ever tought, and that with fearce determination, passion, and hard work you can accompish anything, which she proved...


    I don't care who determine you are you won't learn a full martial arts in a month advance a couple of belts maybe but a full master, No it takes years to be considered masters, in china monks train people for 18 years in martial arts before their realsed and their still not considered masters, they go around the world for a year and return with what they learned and prove they are masters

    ^No, Katara didn't master waterbending in a month. Katara has been practicing wataerbending all her life. She was a prodigy and she could control the water very well. She just needed someone to teach her the moves. THAT'S HOW SHE MASTERED IT!!!!!

    she is thirteen, no one can master an martial art by thirteen years old, two she was not a prodigy, three she couldn't do the water whip for a whole episode and only managed to do it when her life was endanger, also she couldn't control water that well in the second episode of the avatar she had to turn around to make the water move the way she wanted, thats like saying if i practice kicking until i'm thirteen i can go out and master chou jioa because i've been kicking my whole life, ex zuko is only able to do what he can after years of practice same with azula they have been reciving training since they were little, now katara has been reciving training for about a month, and barely practicing seeing how when we first met her she could barely control the water, now mastered water and teaches aang, while zuko is still reciving training since uncle said he still needs alot of training in fire bending, But katara is a master makes alot of sense to me

    ^ Bending is not the same as martial arts. Get that straight. They're similar but not the same. Your comparison to the kicking thing does not apply. It doesn't make sense. If you want to compare, you can compare bending to basketball. You can practice all your life without any lessons and still be good. And yes, SHE WAS A PRODIGY.

    Another thing i don't like is the opening of avatar that aang isn't ready to save any one but everytime you turn around he is saving someone, i bet she is ready to save people though being a master of water bending, but if your mastered air bending your not

    I agree that it needs to be changed. It was orignally scripted "this Avatar's just a kid". But you do need to realize that Katara isn't saying that she's better than Aang.

    One thing, Katara is 14 or even close to 15 by now... Season one started at the end of the fall... It's now near the middle of the spring... I believe that she is a prodigy like Azula and Toph (Toph has to be, she is really good)...

    Aw man, i missed the war. Oh well.

    I odn't think Katara is truly a master already, and if she is, then waterbenders have it easy, or there's not much to learn with waterbending.

    Well we can say thins she put a good fight with Pakku but was unable to land a single blow take Naruto for an example Hinata fought well against her cousin Neji but gues what she still losed and was unalble to land not a single hit on him.

    Aha! So she's not really a master until she surpasses her teacher. This does not aply on Hinata's case.

    No. Sokka is 15 and Katara is 14 and Azula is Sokka's age, and is therefore 15. It says so on the nick website. (not that that's all that reliable...)

    Well if those are charts of Zuko's hair rate for season 2 I wonder how much it grew between the season two finale and 3 premire.
