    Whatever it is, we're in store for another great episode. (Even if its a filler episodes, fillers??are great on the Avatar)

    That makes no sense... Normally a filler is when the anime starts to catch up to the manga and they need to buy time so that the manga can get a head. I don't think they need to really buy time because A. There is no manga... and B. I doubt they signed a contract where they are forced to do a certain amount of episodes per season. Plus I think learning about zuko's past is a lot better than "avatar day".??

    My definition of a filler is different from you. I consider episodes to be??fillers when they don't revolve around the main protagonist and when they main protagonists don't grow. And I don't remember the show being called "Zuko: The Exiled Prince." But yeah Avatar Day was a filler. I don't thinkZuko will be the Antagonist that he was after this episode airs.

    Regarding "Certain amount of episodes":??according to iTunes, a Season 2 pass is $29.99, I paid $29.99 for all of season 1's episodes. (total 20) They've already set the price for Season 2 so I think that has to do the "expected total number of episodes" which most likely will be 20. Some networks also have a limited amount of episodes that can be produced which is usually 65 (dunno why its considered to be "perfect"). Of course I don't think Nick enforces that any more, I remember "Space Cases" was to have 65 episodes (but it got cancelled before it made it to the 3rd season). IM me if you can find some information to support "unlimited episodes" (I just don't want this forum to go off topic)

    On BlueSpiritGal.com, I think, a fansite whose reliability I am not quite sure of, it says that Tokyopop is indeed coming out with a manga for Avatar (which, if it is, I can't wait to get my hands on it! LOL) Also, can't wait for the new epp! S'about 50 hours and 32 minutes now! Heheh...

    (my quote thing got messed up and I have no idea how to fix it, sorry)

    *is shocked out of any impatience* AVATAR MANGA????? THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!?? I wonder if it'll be more violent/dark than the TV series, like most other TV shows that have Manga.

    BlueSpiritGal, the founder of the site, showed a page of the manga on her website. It is just like the episodes, practically word for word, and the same exact scenes. I honestly don't see the point of a manga if they do that, but who knows, perhaps they are trying to build up the story through the actual first episode, then continue with new adventures. But the manga, so far, as I've heard from this website, can only be ordered, for like 20 sumthin' dollars. I think I'll wait for it to come out in stores for a little cheaper, thanx... LOL (And they've only made Book 1:Chapter 1 I think, and Chapter 2... maybe, I dunno..)

    EDIT: You can go to the thread I made about it to share your ... enthusiastic... lol, feelings about this. I realize we're getting quite off topic.

    I like Manga.?? It's so funny to see people looking at you like you're crazy because you're reading the book 'backwards' when you're actually reading it the right way.
