    Ahah, I see. It was intended to be Toph, the boy, but when Toph was changed to a girl, the Earthbender in the intro was not changed. I see...

    so the intro theory is correct after all.

    now the only question is: who's the firebending girl??

    She has the same hairstyle as Azula, the crown thing and everything.?? It's Azula, watch when she comes into the light of her fire.??

    It is Azula. I recorded an episode and studied the frame of the Fire Bender thing. It's kinda hard to tell but i'm possitive it's her

    Oh, I get it. I remembered hearing some information about that a long time ago, but I had completely forgotten about it. Thanks!

    For the sake of clarity, let's just say it's an unknown earthbender.


    Yeah, clarity's good.

    Was Toph also??supposed to be in his 20's or 30's? Because the guy in the intro isn't 12.

    Please see my post #18.?? I think Toph was originally envisioned as a general, which would explain things.

    I think all the benders in the intro represent the most powerful benders in the world.

    No. Toph is good, but Bumi is better.

    I would think that it's Toph when she was planned as a boy, but hopefully they'll still incorporate that dude somehow.

    look at the beard and bun and wrists of the bender that is general Hau. (spelling HOW)
    they are going to incorporate the bender and I think hau is him.
