I really enjoyed watching the live action series better than the crappy movie and seeing the live action series of Avatar The Last Airbender is like curing your eyes from remembering watching the horrendous film version

[@minaveljovic9662]

I love how you say "hey buddy" and "hey kiddo" when u see the characters. It makes me teary eyed. So many people are trying to hate on this and sure maybe there were a few things that bothered me, but this is such a beautiful love letter to the original show and i love seeing you treat it as such. The "hey buddy" with your teary eyes is exactly how i felt. I just missed seeing more of their stories, and am so happy to do it throughout this live action. Hoping for season 2 and seeing toph, as well as more Suki and all of the wonderful storylines

[@MikeyBarca02]

Couldn’t agree more! I will also avoid and stay away of all the people that try to say negative stuff about this series, I’m so full of happiness when thinking that we finally got such a promising live action, I won’t let anyone out there take even a piece of that positive feeling I have

Honestly my feelings exactly. As long as they don't do anything that taints the story or legacy of the show, I'm honestly just happy seeing these characters again

[@gemgem-hl7ii]

@@MikeyBarca02 I have watched the animated show before, and I also think the live action is good. Different but good. I was so happy after watching, that I eagerly checked online other people's thoughts, and I was so disappointed by all the negativity. I wasn't expecting it at all. Basically, they are hating on the show for the changes and nitpicking every flaw, while not recognizing that even the original show had flaws too.

[@RisaPlays]

Of course some things will be different, but I really felt that this kept the spirit of the original. The references to the original also made me laugh. I thought this was a great live action reimagining.

[@necrosunderground]

Oh, shit, I never even thought about that

[@richardbrown3055]

“A strange, glowy iceberg just exploded and left behind a mysterious little bald person” is one the most Sokka of lines, never spoken in the original series. Ian Ousley is nailing Sokka in every way. I also love addition of Zuko studying the history of the Avatar as part of his search, a nice subtle indicator of Zuko’s intelligence, and Iroh’s influence.

[@shestewa6581]

Zuko is so iconic. He has a life goals mood board.

[@danielorlovaquinn]

Except actually being native 💀

[@hellowhat890]

9:50 That airbender actually made me think of when Shang Chi's mother was introduced. When Wenwu first found her. I love that Kyoshi was the one doing the traditional intro and Gran Gran got to be the one to do the "Everything Changed when the Fire Nation attacked" speech.

[@agentspaniel4428]

Speaking of which, she would be perfect to play Yangchen

[@patrickwaldeck6681]

I'm kind of amazed how explicit they got with how realistically horrifying Firebending would be in real life. The guy that they got to play Gyatso was really outstanding. Sokka and Zuko's actors are also perfect as far as I'm concerned. Even though there's some stuff I don't like about this adaptation it doesn't get in the way of my enjoyment of it.

[@Victorio667553]

When Sozin just Thanos dusted that female airbender. Then when Gyatso was trying to protect the children. Man oh man -

[@HolyParsival]

I agree though it's a shame the lightning azula shot looked so weak

[@novastarburst3939]

Yes, and it's not only like in the cartoon, when it was only with very powerful benders, here it's basic soldiers, it made it even more realistic.

[@lyrebirb83]

Sozin executing that earthbender was horrifying. Made it feel like an 80s PG rating.

[@matthewhearn9910]

All the issues I have with this as an adaptation are fixable, and the second and third seasons offer better opportunities for the sort of writing I'd prefer to see (since let's be honest, the first season is definitely the weakest in that category in the original). Hire acting coaches for a few of the weaker actors (which is mostly an issue with age and not something I hold against them as young artists) and adjust how the writers handle exposition and we'll be in B+ territory.

[@EricBervade]

I'm right there with you with the tearbending! I actually got quite emotional many times during my binge of this show. Can't wait to see your reactions to the rest of the season! The thing that got me the most in this episode was Gyatso saying he would always be his friend. I just kept thinking it was directed at both Aang and Roku🥲

[@Animalfriend777]

Having finished the season, I think it's a worthy adaptation. There are some places for improvement here and there but I feel like it captures the soul and heart of the series and characters. It isn't trying to out do the original or be a 1-1 adaptation but it has a respect for what came before it

[@vincentlamarque5777]

Exactely my thoughts

[@necrosunderground]

Agreed. My biggest issue was with the pacing in the front half of the season; it felt like there needed to be at least one more episode in there to even it out. And a couple of small VFX issues. But I think they did a damn good job adapting it

[@Stardweller1]

[@queenannsrevenge100]

The early reviews were NOT kind to this series, but I don’t get it. Having watched the first four thus far, I’m enjoying it! The actors so far seem to be hitting the mark, and I was actually impressed with the actor playing Sokka - he hit the mark with Sokka’s humor and to me has been the stand-out. I actually enjoyed Bumi (no spoilers) and the actual message they reinforced with him. Anyway, I’m really hoping they get to finish this series - to me they’ve done a very worthy job of adapting the original, and I want to see the end of it.

[@krazytreRTM]

Honestly, my only real gripe with the live action so far (haven't finished) is the acting for Aang and Katara feel off. Katara felt very "lifeless" and lacking in personality for quite a while, and Aang feels kinda unnatural in how he says things. Overall, I've been having a nice time with the live action, but because Aang and Katara are two central pieces to the entire board, their performance kinda brings it down for me.

[@kateorgera5907]

I do wonder the difference between those who watched the original series and those who weren't, but most early reviews I came across were good.

[@patrickwaldeck6681]

​@krazytreRTM Cutting out Katara's sass and honestly most of her personality is the biggest crime of this adaptation. She feels just...generic. There's a few moments when the writing gives her some excuse to show actual emotion besides stoic worry and the actress really shines when that happens, but it feels so rare.

[@krazytreRTM]

[@borjankosarac3645]

Aang said that, and I see the dragons going, “What are we, chopped liver?” Maybe they can’t reach them the way the bison can, and it was the Fire Nation using the power of the comet to fly… I dunno, even in the show itself it felt a bit of a plot hole. Especially if the Mechanist was able to reach the Northern Air Temple leading a few score refugees… And the Temples would have been another reason to give this four seasons instead of rushing to the North Pole in one season (it’s unfortunate that we need to cut a lot of the locations on the way there). Would also have let them introduce more stuff out of order like Azula and a number of minor characters… ah, well.

The weird thing with how visceral they chose to make the deaths in the attack on the Air Nomads, they decided to erase one of the the darkest aspects of the original series. When Aang finds Gyatso’s remains they are surrounded by the corpses of a bunch of Fire Nation soldiers, popular theory is that Gyatso used the same technique Zaheer used in LoK to suffocate them. It’s an odd choice to have the “Worlds Greatest Airbender” according to Aang resorting to just trying to push the soldiers trying to attack the children he is guarding away, and not making use of anything advanced.

I knew that but I want to see him use his boomerang

I think that Katara being nearby had an effect on the avatar state like as the Avatar, Aang sensed that a bender was near and it drew Katara and Sokka to him for help [always wondered why ocean would have rapids when I watched the original] and then when Katara started bending right by him, that triggered his escape.

Just binged the season. Without spoiler : they changed a lot, but the spirit of the show is intact and everything works for me, that's a very good adaptation. Eager to see your reactions, I need someone to cry with me. :)

[@corgiluver9718]

Loved your reaction. So far I'm very happy with this reimagining of the animated show. The sets, costumes and bending look great. The acting by the kids and adults is solid. Aang is easy to love, Katara is appropriately caring and one can see her journey & growth is just starting, and Sokka is Sokka. Looking forward to your future reactions.

Perfect timing! Just in time for lunch 😊 thank you!

If you think about it, those firebenders really topped Anakin's youngling slaying count.

[@chantedouglas2527]

I’m just glad I wasn’t the only one crying watching this show….love ur reactions ❤️🥹🥰

[@silentinfinity]

So excited to be back here with ya watching!!!

[@nex-ex5100]

I'm a dude. I watched this with my wife. There wasn't an episode that didn't make me cry at one point. I like the direction they took with this live action version. They brought the core message of the whole thing into a more understandable view. Core message: War sucks.

[@allysims453]

I was disappointed that they didn’t have any bonding moments between Aang and Katara. Even if the first season of the cartoon, Aang adores Katara and does a lot of cute and goofy things to impress her, and they left all of it out. I feel like they didn’t show any of the 3 main characters truly bond which each other.

[@nope19568]

after i finished it i genuinely couldnt remember if we'd actually ever gotten a full fun team building adventure with all three of them together, it always felt like they were spread out and the only implications of bonding is the time on appa which we dont usually get to see, was weird

[@mranima748]

I think one more episode would have helped a lot

[@reesethetyro]

10 episodes could have worked imo 🙇🏻‍♂️

[@nope19568]

@@mranima748 id say even 2 or 3 would be best, the rushing everything is kinda sucked alot of the whimsy out of the show, like they never really show all the cool animals that made the world feel so real or show aangs goofy side for more than like 3 minutes, everything feels too gutted for the fantasy setting its supposed to be in, it felt like all the joy got sucked out, we needed more fun padding time

[@squirlywirl]

@@nope19568 we really didn't and it's my one of my biggest gripes about the show. The original GAang (minus Toph) didn't feel as close as they were in the animated show. And don't let me get started on how they absolutely butchered Katara. I hate how they made her meek and kinda passive in this. 😭

[@tamobligo2440]

I've been waiting for your reation all day... Finally!!! ✌️😁

[@adiguna841]

I like your room, cool cozy

[@TheRedcat14]

Been waiting for you to get to this! ❤️

[@Masc_Kristina]

Yoooo this was more than I could have ever expected it to be and then some. Like my mom and I had the chance to watch it and good lord all the emotions were definitely there and I got a little teary eyed watching it cause I was actually proud of how It turned out and everything that happened and it was just absolutely all around 10 out 1,000

[@francemerchan17]

You're near getting 100M subscribers! 🎉 Congrats, Ate (Ate is like older sister in PH)

[@Omalleyallycat123]

Yessss thank you for posting it all I want to do is TALK about it!! I just finished 😭😭❤️❤️❤️

[@Appleman291]

Wow, thank you. I was not expecting reactions to this show that soon.

[@jigstraw2809]

i might be reading too much into it but idk how i feel about one of the subtle changes i noticed when i watched the episode for myself. After Aang finds out he's the avatar and has to leave the southern air temple, he's not planning to run away when he leaves with Appa. the monologue right before that implies he's just going for a ride to clear his head("i should get up there where things make more sense"), which is absolutely a reasonable thing to do after such a big revelation. But because it's implied that he intended to come back in this version, getting caught in the storm isn't a consequence of his choice to run away. It's just something that happened to him. he bears less personal responsibility in this telling of the story, but the guilt of "turning his back on the world" was such a big, central theme of the original series. I'm curious how this is going to play out. if they aren't careful it could rob the series of the emotional resolution of Aang forgiving himself, because he hasn't done anything he needs to forgive himself for. Aang didn't do anything inherently wrong in this version of the story. now it's just bad things happened to him and he has to live with it, which is a very different dynamic.

[@lexie9466]

I just can't with Gyatso ..they literally chose the perfect actor for him😭🩵

[@dquanissavage6287]

Funnylilgalreacts Such A Awesome Video Today!!🔥🐐🐐💎

[@bareenali1350]

ofc nothing can top the show, but i really do like the live action, even some of the changes they made and especially the visuals and costumes

[@angelacarvalho2686]

I've been waiting for your video 😍✨

[@JamesSerapio]

I do find interesting how the production telegraohs to all the animation fans that this will not tonally be the same show you remember with that cold open. Seeing all the reactions of people shocked and horrified by that first immolation is very telling of what some were expecting.

[@AaronRaynerKASR]

Finally!!! Been waiting for your reactions to the live action Avatar!!! ❤

[@eglantinepapeau1582]

omg I can't wait for your episode 2 reaction 🙏 hopefully this week

[@kathleentwidle3519]

I was so excited for this reaction and was not disappointed. I always appreciate that you let yourself feel and express the emotions of it. While I was watching it myself, I cried a lot. A lot of people are fixated so far on what's been taken out, ignoring what's been added. They're missing Aang's playful almost oblivious disposition--but in return we were shown that this was a real war, with real consequences not: 'did Jet just....die?' and 'you know it was really unclear' they made it very clear that this is a war, and with war comes loss, pain, people get hurt, people pass. It hits home when they show children running from the assault on the air temples. I'm okay completely with the changes they made because this is I think, going to be a far darker ride. I hope you continue to enjoy it!!! ( I sure did)

[@Hollycb12]

I liked it. Much better than the movie that doesn't exist. It's not perfect, but the cartoon is, so we've always got that
