It kinda makes sense why atla was a onetime story.

Eh I can get that Roku didn't wanted to give his former friend a chance and not just kill him right there.
What confused me about that episode is why Roku didn't just leave the island, why bother trying to save it so long as all the villagers had gotten out?

No sozin was his friend
And he didnt even listen the possibilities sozin was talking about

Energybending wasn't invented yet

Who needs energybending when you have murder?

Kyoshi is a perfect avatar didnt give too fucks if a dictator was being an ass you murder them.

*does nothing until he literally arrives at her doorstep*

the Earth king deserved to lose his position, its knows that Earth kingdom royal family was always shit at their job.

Assuming everybody left, they would have been homeless. There was no guarantee they would have had any refuge especially with Sozin being Sozin so Ruko being the Avatar and the island’s hero tried to save what he could.

Can't really blame the guy that much for wanting to give the guy whose been his best friend ever since they were children another chance.

He gave Sozin a freebie because they're friends. But the real issue is that I don't know why he thought the problem would just cease to exist once either of them died. If not Sozin, Azulon would've started the war. The Fire Nation was in full Third Reich mode.

Was the beach episode just am homage to anime because that's what the art style was inspired by?
really caught me off guard

> Kyoshi
> Literally just isolate yourself and run away
Yeah real perfect, she didn't even intentionally kill Chin, and presumably would have done nothing if he had stayed alive and continued to act as a horrible dictator as long as he didn't go after her island.

I mean considering that Sozin didn't really do anything else after Roku warned him ((up until the volcano incident when Roku died), Roku probably thought that he understood his message and gave up on the idea of expansion + wouldn't encourage it to his kids.

Maybe maybe not
Maybe he suspected but it would be too awkward to go into the fire nation and get involved in their stuff when they arent doing anything (yet)

he's the Avatar they could easily find a new home, him dying to try and save their homes is honestly probably the least charitable interpretation you can give to Roku here it makes him seem like a suicidal dumbass

Aang talking to the previous four avatars was perfect.
>Roku: "Yeah, I should've killed him when I had the chance. Don't hesitate like I did."
>Kyoshi: "Killing the tyrant in my day immediately solved problems."
>Kuruk: "If you keep sitting on your hands and waiting for a solution, you're going to ruin your life like I did."
>Yangchen: "You're the Avatar. Kill him already."

I liked Yangchen's bit especially. That it was noble of him to try to follow the monk's teachings but his duty to the world precludes him from keeping such a strict moral code.

She also literally established the Earth Kingdom secret police

I know right? Yes, you were taught to seek enlightenment but the Avatar isn't allowed to stop caring about the world around him.

It's his home too dumbass. If you had godlike abilities would you not try and use them to save your home?

What if the Fire Nation never invaded?
Think about it for a moment, the Fire Nation's invasion plans were what prompted them to start committing to industrialization putting the Avatar universe in a position where they can have cars and radios less than a century after the war

i wouldn't risk my life for my home, the place probably wouldn't even be hospitable afterwards regardless

they had metal steam ships when the invasion began
the industrialization is probably why they were prosperous as sozin said

I wanna see a timeline of the 10,000 year period of how much technology advanced

>was apathetic to the earth king's actions
>didn't even kill him technically

what a shitty avatar

>Bitch has the secret to long life
>Didn't share it with anyone
She lived for 200 years

I mean that doesn't sound particularly great either.
He was his friend AND the leader of the fire nation. Giving him a chance was both merciful and pragmatic, especially since killing him would have been rash and unfounded. Hell it worked for decades until the chance opportunity of a volcano killing him gave him an opportunity to start his conquest.
Holy shit, finally thank you. I'm so tired of these Blood Avatar memes.

he didn't want to kill his boyfriend

230, even, though she apparently learnt it from some guru or something, so its presumably one of those 'achieve enlightenment/spiritual harmony' things that anyone can technically learn, just few actually do because its hard.

Wanna know how I know you never had friends?

It's funny to me how Avatar fans let memes redefine reality. Kyoshi wasn't a savage knight templar killer. She's a lazy bitch that did nothing until a conqueror was literally her problem. She may actually candidate for one of the worst Avatars in history.

>Him
>his
That's a woman.

You're missing the point. All those killings were what started the war in first place. Aang is wiser that his previous lives, and Korra is even wiser than Aang by forgiving Kuvira.
