And given what happened to him in the finale (back with Mai, ends war, puts dad in jail, made amends to Iroh, hanging out with old friends), he has good reason to be happy. <BR/><BR/>I was underneath the impression that Aang was the last airbender right now, meaning that if he gets busy, there could be others in future generations. <BR/><BR/>Though I must admit that the creators seem a bit...aloof? As if they really don't care what the fandom thinks. And while I don't think a writer/creator should bow to every whim of the fandom (Coughzutaracough), that doesn't mean they should produce something that is either sub par (extra 15, hell just 5, minutes is all they would have needed) or is just a big "#### you" to the fans.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-970445463433550241.post-60849945618434429812008-08-09T19:36:00.000-07:002008-08-09T19:36:00.000-07:00My issue with the Toph situation is that we don't ...My issue with the Toph situation is that <I>we don't know</I>. <BR/><BR/>We can't even really guess and the idea that she's going to spend the rest of her life as "The Blind Bandit" fighting for money seems rather anti-climatic for the greatest Earthbender in the world, maybe even of all TIME. <BR/><BR/>In addition to this, the creator's comment that "Aang is really the last Airbender" implies that there might be a chance that there <B>will not</B> be any more Airbenders, putting my equation to take a dirt nap. <BR/><BR/>Personally, the reason why I even thought about the teashop scene more is because I was so very confused when I first spotted Zuko in the scene because: <BR/><BR/>1) He usually doesn't have any fluffy-mcfluff-fluff happy scenes like that. <BR/>2) Shouldn't he be, oh I don't know, running his country? Uprooting corruption and evil rather than basically lounging hundreds of miles away from the capitol?Frugal Fanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15566504682749838122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-970445463433550241.post-76693931437214197862008-08-09T01:22:00.000-07:002008-08-09T01:22:00.000-07:00I had similar thoughts post-finale. Not so much on...I had similar thoughts post-finale. <BR/><BR/>Not so much on Toph (she's more then capable of taking care of herself and I really don't see her parents refusing to welcome her back home) or even about Aang being the last airbender (if Aang gets busy with Katara, we may see a few air benders among his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, etc.) <BR/><BR/>For me, the biggest sore thumb was Ursa. Clearly they haven't heard of Chekhov's Gun. They should deleted the Ozai's prison scene all together if they weren't going to resolve that mystery. <BR/><BR/>Though I must admit that, in hindsight, the Teashop scene didn't make a whole lot of sense either. I figured time had passed, but it was too...much from left field. And I would have liked some sort of resolution to Toph's crush on Sokka.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
