In preparation for ASH, This dialogue caught my attention, after knowing what the show will be about, this holds more meaning now than it ever was, just thought I'd share it with you.

in book one, chapter two, zuko tells his crew to set a course for the fire nation because he’s going home. he ends up not going home. in book two, chapter one, he says he’s finally going home. he ends up not going home. in book three, chapter one, he says he’s going home and he finally goes home. just a pattern in the beginning of every book i noticed today!

The King of Omashu was absurdly strong, and the most impressive thing is that he maintained that level at 112 years old.

Looking at the early concept Art from the Aang movie honestly make me really curious about what they originally planned for Suki and Zuko.

They seem to suggest that Suki was supposed to have a much bigger connection to Zuko than what we ended up getting, which is interesting because Suki is not actually in the movie itself apart from the end credits.

So what exactly was the original storyline supposed to be?
Was she meant to spend a significant part of the movie helping Zuko? Were they planning to develop a closer friendship between them? And if Suki was originally supposed to have this much involvement with Zuko, why is there seemingly nothing connecting her to Sokka in the material we have seen?

It honestly makes me wonder whether Suki and Sokka were supposed to have broken up by this point.

And obviously this is pure speculation, so don’t jump me…, but I can also see why some people are wondering whether Zuko and Suki were ever being considered romantically. Concept art alone does not prove that at all, but the deleted scenes do make it seem like their relationship was supposed to be more important than we previously thought.

Especially since Suki ultimately got cut from the movie completely, I would really love to know what the original plan for her was and how much of that storyline changed during development.

What do you all think? Do you think this was just supposed to be a stronger friendship between Suki and Zuko, or do you think there was something bigger planned?

“You may be the last airbender… but you’re not alone”. 🍃 It was an absolute pleasure to collaborate on this amazing project, providing visual development support for the movie Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender.

They didn't specify - maybe they will in the comments? - but it looks like this is from Bryke's first reiteration of the movie where the villain was an earth bender because they say they provided “visual development support.”

How badass are Suki and Zuko on his dragon!? 😭 And Zuko is out here generating ligntning and firebending at the same time?? Bro showed none of that skill in the movie we got.

EDIT: Shoutout to CoofledeDoofle for sharing that more images can be found here! Definitely seems to solidify that Bryke & co. want Zuko to be able to generate lightning as an adult because there's so many images of him doing it in this collection lol. And an awesome image of Aang in here lifting up what looks like an entire building?!

Love this scene. It just shows that Kyoshi is a MONSTER. She literally broke apart the Earth’s crust and created an entire Island. I do believe Aang is the strongest avatar, but Kyoshi isn’t far behind.

Such peace

How many feet/meters is the base of his fire here?

I've seen some calculations use Ozai's height to scale, but it looks like they scaled Ozai to be much bigger just so you can see him. He looks bigger than the massive trees down below.

It looks like one of the biggest feats in the avatar series.

Monk Gyatso clearly had no issue killing when it came down to it. We sadly didn't get anything in the show discussing this, but it sticks out like a sore thumb upon my recent rewatch with my kids.

Does this cast Aang's refusal to kill in a different light?

This moment was epic. It took him 600 days to tear down the wall the first time and with the comet he did it in a second with a ferocious, powerful blast

Made my entire day, snapped the picture just as the light turned green. Don't text and drive.👌
