Hi, we are the official community of the "Book 4: Air (Restoration Project)." It is a community-made show bringing together pro VAs (from anime and video games), composers, writers (one who wrote promo materials for Avatar: The Last Airbender), sound engineers, comic artists, and more to create a pseudo-Book 4.
Using the official comics as well as original materials to flesh out the story, completely reorchestrated versions of the original soundtrack as well as new music, the project is creating a fully-dubbed and scored motion comic!
We’ve even recreated the Tsungi horn, a fictional instrument created for ATLA using a complicated audio process called “convolution” to combine the sound of a duduk and a trombone. That’s the haunting instrument you hear in the Blue Spirit theme.
Help us make the rest of Book 4, including original content!

[@TiffanyKorin]

This is so awesome!! I'm blind and always wanted to read the comics after the show ended. I'm so glad I found this... Lol and Toph's blind joke about the fireworks made me laugh out loud. Thank you all for doing this and hope you continue. 💙

didnt expect them to sound exactly like the actual VAs but they all did really well except for aang. with everyone else it doesnt take much of a stretch of the imagination to hear the original VA voices from the show in this vid, but with aang, the fact it sounds nothing like him is just too jarring, not to mention his VA changed a quarter of the way through. still gonna try to stay immersed anyway. this is the closest we'll ever get to an animated book 4. i still dont like aang's va tho, just trying roll with it.

[@Brick_One_A_Lego_Story]

Your Zuko's voice is pretty good but the accent is on the wrong note :)

[@kaukau217]

​@@sphinx3749The change in VA part way through is due to a time skip. Aang and Toph both have a younger VA and an older(present) VA. This is due to them being the youngest of the Gaang, so their voices experienced the greatest change during the time skip. Puberty is wild.

[@dart763]

Although I would suggest getting a teenager (12-13) to voice Aang, he sounds to much like an adult, but I think that his voice is PERFECT for an Adult Aang or maybe Ikem when you do the Search, I think what I suggested is the perfect piece to the puzzle! thanks ❤️

[@WrBlPro]

@@dart763 Appreciate the feedback. There's a part of me that agrees with it. I'd probably would've gotten someone younger too, if it was me casting Aang (my other coshowrunner gave me Aang!). But, if I may, I'm gonna explain their reasoning. I had a lot of doubts about it. But I get it. After watching the original series and reading the comics and recording two issues, I pretty much understood this way. Aang has a bold way of talking as a kid that he would get something of a deeper voice when puberty hits (in relation to Aang and not his voice actor Zach Eisen). Kinda like how Sora's voice in Kingdom Hearts is, or as my fellow coshowrunner put it, Yuri Lowenthal. Aang is actually 14 in the comic. Ending of the series, he's 13, then there's a time skip. Then Aang kept getting taller, and we don't want to change the voice constantly for the sake of cohesion. There's also the fact that he and Katara have talks about getting married, they didn't want to make them sound too young. Watching other people's comic dubs - not that they're doing a bad job, mind you, it has more to do with personal feelings than anything - it kinda disturbed us hearing a kid voice talk about that to someone who's voice had developed when it came to scenes like that. So, that's why they went with me in the end. I get it though. Before all this and had it been me casting Aang last year, I would've gotten someone younger. Not necessarily ULTRA young, but more like a Scott Menville or Greg Cipes than a Yuri Lowenthal. Around that ballpark. But I'm happy that they went with me. I'd love to voice Adult Aang though. But I doubt I'll ever get the chance to, considering they're movies. hahahaha I'm too low in the totem pole to audition for that. For all I know, they probably got their Adult Aang already.

I'm so quoting that last part

[@azux.]

better than a expensive as hell live action and made with 10x more love and passion and understanding of the original world/characters/arcs/comedy

[@knghtbrd]

I'm convinced the people behind the Netflix show have love and passion for the source material. But they also have a budget, and they're doing it in live action. It _can't_ be as good as an anime original if their budget was ten times larger. There's a group of fans that think Avatar "got good" in Season 2 when characters started being more complicated and "the goofy kid stuff" was less there. We all take from ATLA what we want … I think the showrunners are in that camp, though. And I'm not sure they understood the Spirit World at all. But their heart is in the right place-and their portrayal of life in the Fire Nation for Zuko and Azula was worth the price of admission.

[@azux.]

@@knghtbrd Season 1 of ATLA is way better than people using mere memory from 10 years ago give credit to, and the Live Action has one giant budged for each episode, but even tho it doesn't translate well to live action (therefore it shouldn't have been made) people are judging the shitty writting quality, exagerated exposition, it seems way less mature that the original, and treat the audience like fucking dumb puppets, sometimes is pretty, sometimes the wide-shots are cool, but the same can be said to rings of power, and LOTR fans didn't cave as much as the Avatar fans, we are to complacent on consuming garbage, not only in midia but in real life aswell

[@knghtbrd]

If I were Bryke, I'd ask Nickelodeon and Dark Horse to leave this project alone. If they were willing, I'd quietly reach out to the people behind it and clarify: As long as it's available non-commercially (particularly due to the trademarks), the option to ignore it exists. Can't endorse or support it, but the option to ignore it exists as long as they aren't required to defend some legal assets. I don't know this happened. It could've.

Amazing, I read the comic a while back and you did it justice. While the first time I heard the voices I got a bit thrown off by the different voices, it didn't detract after that.

I love how this shows both Aang and Zuko still have so much room to grow as characters after ending the 100 year war. MY ONLY ISSUE is with Katara and Aang calling each other "sweetie." Nicknames/pet names to show that they are affectionate for each other are fine but if you're gonna do that, "sweetie" lacks any depth and really makes the characters fall flat.... and thats besides the cringe or "oogie-ness" of the act.

[@doesfireburn8532]

This is awesome ! This is precious for preservation and its very well edited too

[@thestratilosopher42]

Brilliant work and it's very much appreciated. Katara and Sokka's voices are spot on and did very well. If I can make some suggestions though: Aangs voices seems strained and hesitant. While Aangs facial expressions and actions are often hesitant, his voice rarely is. He has no raspyness nor does he over resonate and trap his sound inside his throat. It's always brave and carefree and only undertones by the stronger emotions. With Zuko, the tone is great, but he lacks Zukos passion in the delivery. Especially the scene asking Aang to promise. That was not a moment of self pity and wallowing like it sounded, but one of clarity, passion, fear, and earnestness. Additionally, when he first confronts the intruder on his ship, he just sounds sullen and defeated. While this would have been appropriate to an early and short-lived version of Zuko, that is not his default tone or what he tends to project. He always has been good at projecting confidence, even when he isn't, as that is what his upbringing for leadership ingrained in him. His insomnia would give a more overt window into his actual feelings and aggravate his weaknesses, so an argument could be made here for that interpretation. So I'll leave it as a personal preference that the sullen take seems right, but is missing the parts of him we've seen develop in his character arch along side it. This makes it seem almost like subtly retconning a large part of his character arch we are looking to see reflected in the following content.

I appreciate the time you took to give this well thought out feed back! As one of the voice directors, I can shed some light as to why we made the choices we did. For Aang: Boy voices sometimes take on a husky quality while changing. In the original you can even hear this happening with Aang’s VA. He starts out clear voiced and gets most scratchy and froggy by the end of the series. Our VA made the choice she did to bridge the gap (and the speech patterns) between OG Aang and the new VA playing him after the time skip. This is why Aang’s laughter in the opening sounds totally different and more light, as we were imitating the opening for that one. For Zuko, the shaky voice was meant to show the beginnings of Zuko’s instability and self doubt. He’s sullen in the scene before he talks to Aang. As resolute as his words are, he himself is not certain, and as he will later admit to Aang by the end of the story, this was him making the cowardly choice. The choked up, unsteady quality is something that Ozai inspires in him, filling him with self doubt and the fear of becoming his father, as well as his own anxiety over the huge task that’s been presented to him. You hit the nail on the head about the insomnia! Zuko isn’t at his strongest right now. He does get stronger voiced and more like the show in other parts of the story (and especially in the episode 4 flashbacks). I hope you will enjoy those and I would love to hear your opinion! Thank you for your feedback. 💖

@@lucialobosvilla This is a brilliant explanation of the intense thought and love for the franchise that went into your decisions. I appreciate the clarity and the delivery even more now. I'll make sure to help spread the word of your work and contributions to ATLA, because you guys seriously deserve it. I've begun design of a tabletop RPG for ATLA myself that is similar to D&D in intent, but innovates different design philosophies and systems to achieve it. So as a fellow creator, fan, and former character actor myself, thank you all.

This is AMAZING. The effort to deliver such feeling

[@jozza15]

I'm blown away, you have done a fantastic job of bringing this story to life. Voice acting was incredible, you really captured alot of the small nuances in each of voices. 10/10

[@quesad1218]

Simply incredible, this is filling a need within me I didn’t know I had. We deserve a book 4!!

[@looseflyingtoughts]

OMG THIS IS AMAZING! Great job of the voice actors and editors, thank you so much! Sending lots of love from Brazil!

[@danielserrano929]

Netflix should have continued the series instead of the live action remake, this is 10 times better!

[@Book4Air]

Having an official Book 4 would've been amazing!

[@emdove]

I wouldn't trust Netflix with that 😅

[@danielserrano929]

@@emdove You're right, we can't trust Netflix with anything these days.

OH MY GOSH ITS LIKE HAVING NEW EPISODES OF AVATAR❤❤❤❤❤❤ The arguing is so good❤️

[@Book4Air]

Thank you so much! That’s Stephanie Pines as Katara and Grant Corvin as Sokka. They really did sound like siblings here!

[@ElegantUsuper]

I'm so happy this exists

[@JeraWizard]

I've just discovered this -- I read the comics years ago, but had to sell my books for rent money a while back. I really hate reading comics on a screen, but this is literally perfect. I love the dub, I love the cast, I love the editing -- REALLY well done.

SO AMAZING! A must-watch for any Avatar fan!

[@shannopiano]

Things I learned 1. Whoever plays the voice of Sokka, Iroh and a one-year-older Toph is AMAZING. 2. Post puberty Aang, Katara and Zuko sound awesome too! 3. It’s been 19 years since I got into Avatar I still get the oogies from pre-adult Kataang. Sokka I’m with you. 4. Women are really the voice of reason and the ATLA men really need ‘em 😂 But seriously I’m mindblown. This is an amazing project and the entire fandom thanks you 😭😭🙏🙏

[@alherx999]

this is so amazing,I can't wait for episode 2 🤩💖

[@thijmstickman8349]

Sokka voice acting is on point

[@Book4Air]

Thank you so much! That’s Grant Corvin as Sokka. He did the singing voice too!

[@xxxxRouvenxxxx]

Amazing job. Its like watching the show again.

3:11: Omg sokkas little surprise scream made me laugh so hard and then I heard Aangs VA voice when he panicked and I chocked 💀💀💀

[@wildhunt6350]

I knew that the ending of Book 3 was too good to be true just peace and love and all that. This goes a bit darker then i expected.

[@derickokongo8651]

Zuko was truly an amazing character

[@choonblaze]

This is really awesome. The voice acting, the music, the transitions. You guys really turned this into a legit Avatar tv show :)

[@hunormagyar1843]

This is great! Your voice actors did great at sounding like the original too, props to that. Okay, you kinda made Aang sound more like his actress/impersonator in Ember Island Theatre, and later like... idk, Sokka maybe? - but imitation is hard, I'm sure they tried their best. It really makes it more comprehensible than the thing the official yt channel has, narrated by that single lady with random recycled voicelines from the already existing original series. I guess if this is as close as we ever get to s4, this'll scratch an itch. lol

[@rockythestar7284]

This is amazing! The editing, brilliant voice acting, and the way you made the illustrations more alive is incredible to me! Thank you for this!!!
