    well right now they probably have youtube links, but later on they will get more, higher quality videos. Come on man the finale just aired a few hours ago. Cut them some slack!!!!!

    Why didn't Toph end up with someone? And will Zuko ever see his mother Ursa? Also what's wired is that when an Avatar dies, they are reincarnated into the next nation in the Avatar Cycle. The Avatar Cycle parallels the seasons: winter for The Water Tribes, spring for the Earth Kingdom, summer for the Fire Nation, and autumn for the Air Nomads. But isn't Aang the last airbender what would happen there?

    Questions: 1. Why is Azula's fire blue?!?!?!? 2. Why is King Boomi so OLD?!?!?!?!?!??!?!? 3. If Ty Lee can block energy why didn't they just get her to knock out the fire lord and then finish him off...?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! 4. If Azula's fire is blue because her fire is "stronger/hotter" then normal firebenders than how strong is she in comparison to firelord Ozai who has normal fire?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
    One more question: 5. Why was everyone so afraid of the comet? If the comet makes all FIREBENDERS more powerful doesn't that include Aang?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
    more questions: 1.How did Ozai become firelord if Iroh is his older brother???!?!?!? 2. Did Ozai kill the the firelord that came before him?!?! 3. Why did it take so long for the writers to finally reveal what Ozai looked like?!?!?!?! 4. How did Iroh SEE Aang flying on Roku's dragon while he was in the spirit world?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! 5. I am also still wondering about Azula's blue fire and Ozai's "white-core" fire. It was a question I asked further up the page. 6. fire has lightning, water has blood, and earth has metal/sticking to walls/ covering yourself in rocks. What does air have? Could it be the ability to manipulate all other elements??? Technically you can throw a rock with air, you can make a fire stronger or put it out with air, and u can manipulate/throw water with air...!!!!!! you can also make tornadoes and do all these things at once!!!!!

    1. after iroh failed at his seige of ba sing se ozai tried to convince his father to let him take the thrown. azulong (i think, if not ozai's father) refused to let this happen so

    2. ozia did in fact kill his father. well at least we think so, never 100% confirmed but it was pretty obvious. that is why he took power instead of iroh

    3. make him more mysterious? i don't know they just decided to.

    4. i have no idea what you talking about. might need to be a bit more specific

    5. probably just to seperate her from other firebenders, make her more unique and more of a threat

    6. that is speculation. while possible that wasn't really a question and was not shown in the series so yeah...don't know what to tell you

    toph didn't end up with someone cause it wasn't in the storyline. she never had romantic interests in anyone and it would be uncharacteristic of her. your going to have to accept that every story doesn't end with everybody falling in love

    we don't know. dvd commentary might give us something but otherwise we will probably never find out

    true aang it the last airbender, but take this into account. four avatars will come before the next aribender avatar. taking into account that kyoshi lived to be over 200 years old that means that it could possibl be 800 years before the next airbender and if they all live average lifespans say about 300-400 years. thats plenty of time for aangs offspring to learn airbending and bring back the aribenders. or something else could happen but yeah, there's time to figure it out

    This is a highly debated subject, firstly after Iroh's son had died he no longer cared about things like being Firelord. Ozai craved more power, so he demanded the throne, Azulone (Iroh & Ozai's father) denied him, and said he must kill Zuko for demanding such a treacherous thing. Ursa (Ozai's wife) proposed a plan to Ozai, which had Azulon killed, Ozai becoming Firelord as part of Azulon's will and Ursa's banishment from the Fire Nation.

    See above answer.

    To make him more mysterious and more villain like. It's easier to hate an enemy with no face.
    wilddog2k8 wrote:
    4. How did Iroh SEE Aang flying on Roku's dragon while he was in the spirit world?
    Because he himself has been to the Spirit World before.

    Forget about it. Azula is the only with blue fire, Ozai uses the regular kind. Probably to conserve energy for bigger attacks, and all the lightning he does so quickly.

    So where can I find the ratings for last night's show? I'm curious as to how The Finale of Avatar did. I'm sure it blew anything else on TV out of the water last night.

    I think he does. He seemed to control it very well at the end when he raised the waters. So I think he's in total control now and has become a fully realized Avatar. GO AANG!

    The PERFECT question:

    Is it possible for a non-bender to teach someone to bend one of the elements?!?!?!?! I ask this because it was revealed that Lo and Lee are NOT firebenders, BUT if you remember in the first episode of season 2, The Avatar State, they were guiding Azula on how to do lightning. This also happened on several other occasions... And for anyone who doesnt remeber who Lo and Lee are, they are the two ld women who almost got banished by Azula in the finale...

    Any answers?!?!?!?!?!

    Well, you kind of answered the question yourself. Ahahaha. Of course they can. It's all a matter of movement. But it must be infinitely harder. I'm sure it would just be better to learn from an actual bender.

    This seems to happen a lot in Avatar.

    She went crazy and they're wouldn't execute her. She's probably in prison, hopefully one with a psychiatric ward.

    It was in the physical world, Nayla probably couldn't sense it because it was so far away, June said the shirshu could smell a rat a continent away, well they were more than a continent away.

    Actually, scratch that, I just read the interview with Bryke in the accursed book, they said because the lion turtle was so old he had the same scent as the earth, and Nayla just assumed that what she smelled was the earth, an since its scent was masking Aang's, Nayla couldn't smell Aang.
