I think PG-13 would be great. What do you think the average age of the fanbase-- sorry, fannation-- is? I know online most avatards I talk to are at least my age (13), but I would think that a lot of the younger fans don't dwell deep into the interwebs. My niece and nephew (10 and 8 ) watch this show (when they can find it which is difficult just going my the advertisments Nick puts out). Some times (especially when it started) I think they may be kinda young for this show, but something I've noticed about kids: they don't go nearly in depth as these forums. There's something of a wading pool to Pacific Ocean difference. When they learn all the airbenders are dead they don't think genocide-- a lot don't even know the term -- and they don't think how similar things have happened in real life. If they don't already know something they can't reconise it, and if they reconise it then they already know it.
Also, I've seen somethings about blood a couple time in this forum. I just want to say that the censoring out of blood to make something PG annoys me. You know what happens when you get stabbed with a knife? You bleed! I think editing out blood makes the kid more influenced to use weapons than if the blood was shown. Generally kids associate blood with pain. The characters who are fighting would be tougher than your average six-year-old, so they wouldn't show pain or at least not as much as a child in the stiuation. So without the blood kids are less likely to realize that something hurts and more likely to try it themselves. But regardless of whether or not there's blood, I would still want this to have a PG-13 rating if for no other reason than to get a few less little kids in the theater, and maybe get some older fans who actually watched the show.
