The Avatar is back.
Hey there! I am finally home... for two days. Yay. XD
Anyways, yesterday me and Michaela (my sister, for those of you who don't recall) finally started with Avatar Book 3 rewatch! Unfortunatly, we only got up through The Beach... (which is awesome) but I realized something that I had forgotten after nearly a year of not watching season 3!
THE AWAKENING IS A FREAKING INTENSE EPISODE
Yes, yes, I know that everyone already knows this, but I had forgotten how intense it really was, you know? I think the scene(s) that got to me the most were the contrast between Katara's "conflict" with her dad and Zuko's er... meeting or whatever with his father.
Come on, they put these scenes BACK TO BACK just to emphasize how much of a douche Ozai is.
And of course, don't forget one of my favorite parts of the show, Aang+Zuko parallels!
Aang: I need my honor back.
Scene transition: HMMM, now who does THAT remind you of, audience? Huh? Huh?
And then of course, you have the heartwrenchingness of... KATAANGST to deal with throughout the episode. Including some awesome Katara/Aang moments. Because, seriously, what episode with both Aang and Katara sharing screentime together DOESN'T have at least one Kataang moment? I DARE YOU TO FIND ONE.
Here are a few.
So, yup. This episode, like the season 2 premiere before it, is freaking intense. It made me do that little stomach clenchy thingy when you feel really bad for the characters. Oh and, also...
HOT.
