      The Blue Spirit: Holy Crud. Just impeccable, loaded with meaning, and all the little internal movements that character development that feel like legions of change before characters are ever ready to admit it. Just beautiful.

      The other thing I can't get over is how much this show taps into all the motifs and influences I loved as a kid (elemental magic a la final fantasy, kingdom maps, geography, culture creation, etc) but it never feels like those things are the point. It's drama over lore. I love it

      So many shows do the "Friendzone: Let's Back Up This Notion!" and the "The Fortuneteller" thankfully doesn't but there are so many little moments that come close and it's always like this big dramatic meta-game I have watching this stuff.

      Bato of the Water Tribe: Love that it understands you can have your characters make bad choices, you just have to properly motivate them. I love how the lessons are starting to stack and help the characters evolve too. Really good Sokka episode.

      The Deserter: Love the efficiency of the parables. Warnings, actions, consequences, and lessons move so fast in this show, but it's all grounded in earned character dynamics. It's exactly what makes it feel so urgent. Plus the moment where katara switches the masks is so good.

      The Northern Air Temple: "Stink! Never underestimate the power of stink! I really have to say again and again that the action in this show is so dang good. The siege here isn't just well-coordinated with clear geography, it's so smart and storytelling-driven, too.

          The Siege of the North: It's a true, genuine epic. At once a catharsis of a season and it's own beautiful story within the story. There's so much I can say, but I'm really just sitting with it.

          The Avatar State: I tend to hate when characters can go into "god mode" because it so rarely makes that metaphor about anything. It's always like "believe in yourself real good!" or some nonsense, which is exactly why I love this episode.

          Not just in the way it creates logic and stakes and rules, but because it so squarely hits the metaphors of power and being out of your body and lacking control and the terrifying reality of that. This is a show so grounded in consequence.

          The Cave of Two Lovers: The moment of Zuko taking the birdhorse thing... I love when shows understand that these intimate, small forms of pain and cruelty are so much more devastating than all the battles and "big" life / death put together.

          Return to Omashu: I love how much the show understands that it can't keep playing the same cards. Changes come in the form of lovely new conflicts and developments.

          And for the last time (really, I'll stop the thread no problem), stop discussing future events and or how characters are going to change. Even if you think you are being vague or general, trust me, you are awful at it.

          The Swamp: Sort of something I like out of "minor" episodes - playful, brings you into headspace, plays with assumptions... maybe a little too fast and loose and slight in this one but the show just continues to be so terrifically entertaining at every moment.

          Zuko Alone: God they're so good at fleshing out psychology on this show. It's never just "plot" - it's all understanding and enriching motivations and changes and inner conflicts (PS prospective writers, that's the main subject to study if you want to be good at writing)

          The Chase - Whoa. A "no man is an island" infighting microcosm for society all under a genuine pressure cooker reminiscent of "33" from Battlestar??? First episode that *really* turns the screws on genuine tension before hitting a massive character-driven climax? Favorite so far.

          The Desert: Angry Aang! Actually blind Toph! LSD Sokka! I love motivated all these choices are. Nothing feels like affectation. Aang's Appa connection runs so deep that it's one of those things you never thing about until it's removed. And then the true terror of vulnerability.

          As it develops, Aang continues to be one of my favorite protagonists. It's not just that he's jovial, kid-like, and fun. It's always in terms of how they approach his "un-aang-like" moments and how they speak to his fears and ultimately, what they use to teach him to grow.
