Top 10 Moments from Avatar: The Last Airbender
Avatar the Last Airbneder was such an amazing show to come out of Nickelodeon and its time to countdown the top moments from the series which is no easy task as their were so many moments to choose from that it would almost be impossible to just pick 10.
In the epic final battle between Aang and Fire Lord Ozai Aang gives it his all but finds himself in a bad situation before being knocked back and hitting his back in the same place where Azula shot him as he regains his Avatar state and turns the tide against Ozai and as he's ready to deliver the final blow he instead takes away Ozai's bending away.
Very emotional scene as Iroh ventures off out of the city and marks the birthday of his son who died during the siege of Ba Sing Se as he kneels over a portrait of his late son before tearfully singing "Leaves from the Vine" in memory of his son, this scene was also dedicated to the memory of Mako Iroh;s voice actor who passed away before the episode aired,
*sobbing uncontrollably*
One of my favorite scenes it the series that centers on Zuko, Mei, Ty Lee and Azula in a scene similar to the scene from the Breakfast Club where each of the characters reveals their own personal flaws.
The final moment of the series as Aang and Katara watch the sunset in Ba Sing Se before embracing in a hug then kiss.
A great scene between Zuko and Uncle Iroh.
Aang takes Katara and Sokka to the Southern Air Temple where he's from only to find the whole place deserted and upon finding the remains of his mentor and friend Gyatso Aang is left grief stricken and goes into the avatar state as Katara attempts to calm him down by telling him that even though he lost the only family he knew both she and Sokka are his family now which gets Aang to finally stop.
After commander Zhao kills one of the moon spirits Aang while in the avatar state fuses with the other to form a giant glowing moon spirit and takes down the fire nation ships.
After Zuko takes a bolt of lightning from Azula to protect Katara, it then comes down to Katara and Azula as Katara finally puts her down by luring her over a set of water ans she freezes her in place as Katara freely moves around and ties Azula's hands down before despensing the water as Katara goes over to help Zuko as Azula furious over her lost o Katara breaks down screaming then cries.
The final moments of the final episode of season 2 plays out a lot like Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Aang returns early from his training with the guru and finds that Azula has taken control of the city by having the Dai Li agents and Zuko side with her, with no other choice Aang goes in to avatar state while letting go of his earthly attachment to Katara but as he goes into the avatar state Azula shoots him with a bolt of lightning casuing him to fall as Katara saves him and Iroh helps them escape as he's captured as Katara, Aang Sokka, Toph and The Earth King escape on Appa as
Katara with Zuko's help tracks down the man who killed her mother with the intention of ending his life but upon confronting him she sees how weak and pathetic he's becomes and decides to spare his life.
Badass moment as Toph single handily takes out all of the Earth Rumble Earthbenders before taking out Xin Fu while showing off her amazing earthbending ability, sadly despite all this and Toph wishing to joining Aang and the others on his journey her parents refuse to let her go and be more restrictive with her but thankfully Toph joins the group anyway by running away.
After Aang runs away Katara goes to her father telling him about Aang leaving and goes off saying that he left believing he has to save the world alone that its his responsibility and goes further saying "I know the world needs him but doesn't he know how much we need him too, how could he just leave us behind" as her father realizes she's also talking about him and her resentment towards him for leaving them behind.
