OK my thoughts on this episode....
I LOVED IT!!!!!
1)sokka was so funny and I agree with everyone that he was at his peak(sp?) in funniness
in this episode!!!
***funny parts--- "those are enemy birds!".....the entire "Wang fire" bit with Katara as his (pregnant!?) wife...........I also loved ( I think it was my favorite part with Sokka) was when Aang said that he is going to throw a secret dance party and sokka goes
".....GO TO YOUR ROOM!...." I'm not really mutch one to laugh out loud after I see a part that's really funny 5 times,...but that line gets me everytime!!!
2) I just like to say that I knew that aang could be the way he was in this episode when I first saw "the boy in the Iceberg"
He just always appeared that way to me and I was always waiting when that side would show (his player-ness) or people would realize that he was like that.
3) I love aang's attitude toward school and "popular kids" was pretty funny! actually I was thinking it would be cool( not necessarily essential to the plot) if some of the kids would find out that he was the avatar and be kind-of- changed in how they view the way their country is and I don't mean join the Gaang but just be kink-of wavered in their beliefs.
*** 'k my review-ish.....thing.... is over.....NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE MOMENT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR........(DRUM ROLL).............
[glow=red,2,300]SHIPPING TIME!!!![/glow]
Now I am an avid KATAANG fan so obviously I loved this this eppie!
I loved katara's subtle jealous-ness in this episode because I do believe for the past two seasons she has grown to have a crush on him but hasn't realized it until now, or more specifically, until she really did lose him in Ba Sing Se and realized how truly important he is to her and so NOW she does like him.
proof this episode can change people's shipping mind...My friend Jessie was an avid zutarian and we both love this show and usually when you talk about this show the love stories wind their way in and Jessie and I usually get stuck in an argument over Kataang or..... zutara
.....
but when I went to my homecoming dance yesterday (the day after it aired) I went up to her and asked if she saw the episode and she then gave me a wary look and said that she did see it the she took a deep breath and said..." Look, before you start your kataang craze ranting let me tell you this....that episode made my choice in ships waver and- no I'm not completely a kataang fan BUT I do now think it's cute
I was so ecstatic that the episode did that to her!!!
I loved that dance , though, and I thought that Katara's reaction to aang asking her to dance like he was the coolest guy in school and that she was almost afraid to MAYBE make a fool of her self and have him laugh at her. Then when they were dancing ( I loved that dance thing) it looked like they were sparing!!!
I gave a little fan girl squeel when aang gave her that look( which was kind-of naughty looking
.....did anybody else catch that) and said " It's just you and me now..." that was so "player like" and "Aang like" at the same time I squeeled!
and ,of course, I loved that little kiss at the end!
Maiko....
...not to sure how I feel so I can't quite Tell you anything about them until it becomes a little more developed...yes I will say that it was un developed and that
I can't say I don't like it ( I'll put anyone with Zuko to keep Zutara away...b/c aang deserves her..) but I have a Strong feeling that it will not last and that something azula will do to mess it up or something or other....(I wrote "something" allot) so ....well....yeah...
just so you know it's not Katara I worry about it's aang. I care who HE ends up with I would like her to end up with him ....................and since I absolutely
cannot stand Taang or whatever the word for it is
I will pair Aang with katara....and their good together anyway
I also loved it when aang was standing outside the store going..."Hotman...hotman.." it was dorky and cute and If you cant tell by this entire post I'll say it here- I'm a huge aang fan!!!!!
I would talk about Iroh and zuko thing but I'm to mad at zuko to make coherent thought!!!
so sorry that was so long!!!
