    why are you complaining......u have no ryght to complain....not to be mean but people lyke u complain ova stuff jus ruins it for people....n honestly it is not likely tht you could have thought of something betta....it wus pretty cleva on how he got back to the avatar state..

    no, actually it made no sense and was not clever at all, and was simply the only thing that could be done with the time limit. and i am not complaining, i am just saying that it could hvave been done better.

    but it did make sense.....because he got hit in the back in ba sing se is why he blocked his charka...he opened it but it wus blocked by the lightning ok...then the rock hitting the exact place where he wus struck triggered the avatar state which opened his charka tht wus blocked....in easier terms his charka wus blocked by a physical force not the earthly attachment n since a rock physcialy hit him in the spot it opened it....u get it now?....to me tht is pretty deep to think of tht in do it tht way....lyke it diff while it makes sense

    actually his chakra was blocked because he couldnt let go of katara, and as the guru said, "if you leave now you'll never be able to go into the avatar state at all." He left, so he shouldnt have been able to ever go back, unless maybe he let go of katara, which he didnt do.
    Well he did leave Katara...sort of in the book two finale he went into the avatar state but before that he said "I'm sorry Katara" so techincally he was able to, he was striken down by the lightning, so he should have died if not for the spirit water.
    oh...damn. you're right. wow. hehe my bad, sorry.

    but u forgot that afta tht in ba sing se (when he went to into that cystal hut thing) it did open it be letting go...tht is why is said "im sorry katara" and he opened it but because azula hit him with lighting the cosmic energy didnt flow..which blocked it...not because he let go of katara he already did

    you know
    I think it might have been more efficent if they sent toph with zuko against azula
    And let katara go with sokka and suki.
    I mean it ended up well but what were they thinking sending the blind one in the sky.

    Then again Zutara needed one last moment.

    I didn't like that they all stole Iroh's trademark move: FireBreath.
    I mean Aang, Azula, Ozai, Zuko, they all used it.
    Not fair!

    when is it airing on Nickelodeon next? I watched the whole thing, but my VCR. Managed to miss the last 15 or so minutes. And it has to be on regular Nick; the house in the OBX has only the original.

    Just saw the finale. I never use this word, but if ever it could be applied to something, those battles were "epic." I realize the word is worn out, but that's what they were.

    For those of us who hope for a spin off, there is still plenty of material to work with, even if it doesn't involve the Avatar directly.

    Overall, it was a fitting end to an excellent show.

    My opinion on the Finale:

    A sheer epic. The music was great with actual orchestral pieces. The animation was superb especially during Zuko's fight with Azula and, of course, the showdown between Firelord Ozai and Aang. I loved watching the character's expressions. My favorite moment would have to go to when Zuko took the lightning bolt for Katara and how she cried when she healed him. And yes, I would be lying if I didn't say that I was disappointed that Zutara didn't happen. I am after all a true blue Zutara fan up to the bitter end. However, I thank the creators that they gave us some Zutara moments that were touching. So yes, I admit defeat but I will continue to be a supporter of the pairing in its fandom.

    I thought Azula went down too easily though. I liked when she did finally go off the deep end whilst fighting but I wished they would have incapacitated her in a more epic way other than just chaining her to the grate. Yet, it was cool how she just started freaking out when she knew it was all over. I'd like to know what they did with her after that.

    I'm looking forward to the potentiality of a spinoff series with hopefully, returning characters. The creators definitely left it open what with Zuko and his father's conversation in the prison cell.

    All in all, very epic! I loved it despite my pairing not winning. My rating: 9/10.

    I rarely notice the music in TV shows, but this finale had some AMAZING music. I'm serious. It was awesome. It all fit in so perfectly with what was going on, and the different situations all blended together flawlessly. I especially loved the theme that played during the Zuko/Azula battle -- it was surprisingly slow and not as "epic", and really set the feel of the battle. It was just plain awesome.

    Mmhmm. The slower music made it all the more dramatic and final.

    This is the kind of Zutarian I like. Did anyone remember that interview where they said Zuko would go on a journey to find his mother? I think they'll use it for the mini-series. *Click to make bigger*
