Slashiest episode yet. Aang complimenting Zuko with the resulting smile, and Zuko complimenting Aang with the resulting happy face were the funniest thing ever!

Toph is awesome. And awesome. And awesome. Especially as awesome chibi!Toph.

So, Firebending comes from Dragons, Airbending from Flying Bisons (or Buffalos), Earthbending from Badgermoles and Waterbending from... the Moon. Why don't Waterbenders get their fuzzy animal theme? It's unfair!

Sooo... Mesoamerican thought-to-be extinct civilization of Sun-themed dragon-themed people, can we just call this episode Avatar and the Dragon-Kings? Haha, Avatar I love it when you ripp off Exalted.

Loved Sokka's teasing of Zuko. Loved that Katara is still being nasty ^^

Again admiring this series' continuity, with the explanation finally given for Rokku's dragon pet and the fact we hadn't seen any before otherwise.

The two fishes at the North Pole? Although they're not really fuzzy or potential mascots.

I wouldn't want to be the Avatar born in the Water Tribe. While the others get dragons and flying bison as an animal guide, you get a... koi fish. I can imagine the face the Avatar would make O_o;

Maybe they'd get a water serpent instead, like the one at the Serpent's Pass. Suddenly I'm reminded of Magikarp in Pokémon, evolving into a dragon sort of thing for some stupid reason... or Hatori in Furuba who's the fucking dragon but turns into a seahorse.

Or a penguin :D

On the meantime, does that mean Avatar Kyoshi had her very own badgermole pet?

That's my favourite thing about Avatar: everything has a reason. And that's so rare nowdays.

as far as I know it doesn't go away. That's what I used to watch all the episodes.

I want to invent some whale hybrid thing to be a Waterbending animal companion. I'm thinking Dolphin-otters or something, because how cute would those be?

My once-and-future-roommate and I have postulated the existance of an island near to the Fire Nation which has a terrible reputation for being haunted and a death zone, because no ship that has sailed to it has ever come back. When the Gaang visits the island, they find out that this is because the island is populated by a peaceful tribe of waterbenders who have cultivated a style of bending which emphasizes storytelling rather than fighting and whose ability to bend the water in plants has lead them to cultivate crops of unparallelled vitality and strength, including their signature five-leafed plant which is often burned for its pleasantly calming smoke.

Oh, and all of the firebenders that sailed there? Their job is to light the fires to roast the boar-q-pines. As if they'd ever go back to the military when they could lie on a beach getting high while watching dancing girls in coconut bras have the best Wet T-Shirt Contest ever.

. . . we're made of crack. =D

Anyway, dolphin-otters would be cute in this context. So I think. BAHAHA dragon-kings, they're made of win.

Some people have mentionned the Elephant Koi fishes from Kyoshi island as possible water bending animals. At least they'd be half as awesome as badgermoles & dragons & flying buffalos. Then again, Dolphinotters would totally win.

Ganja! I like your crack XDDD
I want to live on this island

Nothing beats talking dinosaurs. Except for zeppelins. And maybe ninja-pirates.
