Yeah toph rocks. She's my new favorite character. She's spunky and a really great earthbender. I just hope Aang's vision wont foreshadow her death. That would be sad

Anyone else notice that Toph was able to sence Mai's arrows and earth bend herself up to avoid them?
I don't really get how she knew that since they're not really connected to the ground.
I mean could be that she "felt" the arrows go off since mai was on the lizard that was touching the ground. That seems a bit extreme though.

She probably heard the arrows flying through the air. Blind people often have a higher sense of hearing to make up for being unable to see. Also, she feels the sensitive vibrations through her feet, but she could also feel slight vibrations in sound waves.

is aang and toph really going to end up together? i thought katara is the one for aang? I dont think Ang should hook up with anyone. Katara and Zuko just make sense. Unless they have Aang grow up then I could see them getting together a little more. RIght now it would look like watching an older sister and younger brother hook up.

I'd almost agree with that expect for the fact when she was fighting Aang at first she couldn't "see" him cause he was floating in air untill he hit the ground.

I’m not sure she used her earthbending to avoid the arrows, but instead used it to get her onto Appa, and wasn’t aware of the arrows at all.

Man I like Toph even more in the chase I thought it was really funny when she slammed the door in Katara's face when she was still yelling at her.

Toph did know the arrows were coming. During her first episodes the vibrations she "saw" came from the entire body. She cannot only see positioning but your whole body if you are touching the ground. This way she knows if you throw something and where it is going by how a person throws it. Once it is in the air she can only hear it though. Aang is able to stay in the air for extended periods of time as well as change directions in midair making him a bad opponent for Toph because his attacks can't be seen.

Yeah, I would think that because Aang is a person and can control how much he is 'one' with the air, it's harder for Toph to sense him, especially when he just floats there. Now, because Mai's arrows are inanimate objects (and can make a whole lot more noise to her ears), she is more able to sense them coming towards her.

Yes, Toph probably is more sensitive to flying objects than one gives credit for. As long as they make SOME noise, like the flying rocks of an Earthbender, or Mai's darts, she can sense them at least to a degree.
Not sure why she couldn't catch that belt though...

RIght now it would look like watching an older sister and younger brother hook up. even if katara is sisterly to aang doesnt mean that they shouldnt be together. sisterly/brotherly relationships r cuter cause its all the fun of being alike and cute without it being incest. I have no problem with older girls liking younger guys. its cute. I do like zutara tho. To me it makes less sense.... but i still like the pairing. its my second favorite.

For now, she's more like the bratty little sister I think! ;D I mean, she just about could be Aangs sister - and Sokka...LOL Gotta wait and see! (If the card game is any indication, there will be an odd Earthbender or two waiting in the wings!) aww toph isnt like a bratty little sister... shes bratty but im the yougest and dont want to be compared to being a brat. XP

In the chase she may have been selfish and unhelpful, but she was funny in this ep, plus it was good to see her not look like a spoiled little rich girl by getting on the dirt. And i loved her fights with katara. they were hilarious. I like katara a lot better than toph tho... but it was still awesome to see them fight like that ;D
