This was a good finale, I was a little disappointed though.

Pros:

*Zutara scenes!!!!

*Azula/Zuko fight scene

*Sokka/Toph/Suki scenes

*The White Lotus fighting scenes

*Iroh!!

*Azula going crazy!!!!

*Zuko sacrificing himself for Katara!!

*Avatar state Aang!

*Fire Lord ... Zuko!

*Toph/Zuko scenes .. lmao

Cons:

*Kataang

*The Ozai/Aang final battle...I dunno I just expected more..it was still okay though

*Aang not killing Ozai

*Azula vs Katara fight scene..what the hell? Katara after 3 seasons of practice that's all you could do? C'mon ..

*No Bloodbending

*What happened to Zuko's mom?? Ughhhhh

*Where were the other members of Gaang and Katara and Sokka's dad?? They just disappeared

Anyways, the finale was still good and I'm glad I've watched this amazing series since the beginning! Long live avatar!!!

My rating:

7.5/10

Here goes... My first post on this, or anything for that matter.

This series finale was by far one of the best, if not the most dramatic, touching, and completely insanely wicked endings in the history of television. Not only did it answer many questions, it gave us 1 or 2 more to ask one another. Where Zuko's mom? What happens to Azula? Will their be more air-benders with the coming generations fo Aang and Katara? Since Sokka received the white lotus tile, is he now part of the society? There's still some plot to fill in, but I'm quite sure that Bryke will answer these questions in due time. As for the animation, it was the best in the whole show, it actually looks different. Comparing episode 1 to this series finale, you can tell the difference. The music was superb, absolutely perfect for what was needed in every situation. Aang going into an elemental sphere and try to at least subdue Lord Ozai was excellent on Bryke's part. Roku's bending was amazing when we saw it, but Aang's far surpasses that. I believe that Aang has shown to master or come close to master Earth-bending, especially with Toph stating that he has a little bit left to learn. As for fire-bending, who better to teach you than the current Fire Lord, as well as all the past Avatars. The scene with the other Avatars coming back to help him, was actually stroke of Genius. Last time we saw Aang go into the a state of complete silence and speak with his past incarnations was when Roku spoke to him about the Avatar state being possible to kill him and stop the Avatar cycle. We finally got to see the two missing Avatars that many have been wanting to see. Personally, the Female Air Nomad was particularly captivating because it was what Aang truly needed, someone from his background who was in his shoes somewhat. The Lion Turtle, as an old sage coming to help restore his peace of mind, and giving him a way out of killing the Fire Lord, was brilliantly created. "Before the Avatar, we did not bend the elements, we bended the energy within ourselves." That is an amazing allusion to most Eastern doctrine of mythology and philosophies, in which Avatar is based upon. Their is not one cycle of life, but many, all parallel, and yet linear to what we do and conceive. All in all, Avatar for all this time has been the best portrayer of humor, action, drama, and moral guidance for a television show, in a very long while. I can say, that regardless of it being a cartoon show, that with pride, I can finally be well assured that the show did exactly what it was intended to do, from the very start.

P.S.: Now all I haveto wait for is the live action movies, and hopefully a couple of interviews form Bryke.

I knew the whole compassion thing was gonna happen and that he wasnt gona kill ozai. Kinda like the dali lama saying you shouldnt attack the chinese but with compassion and understanding, have something mutually benificial for both tibetan and chinese.

And the kiss at the end, uhhhh.... i feel like a lonly house wife watching a daytime soap. For me the kiss was the ultimate closure for the series. Im tearing up. =(

i loved the rock bullets he fired at the firelord
