Thanks + RQ: LIVE: Avatar: The Last Airbender - Season Three Marathon 🔥 | Book 3: Water | Avatar

[@clockdude741]

For those unaware, the person on the top right is the voice actor of Zuko and the person in the top left is the voice actor of Korra.

[@TheAangGang]

And the bottom right is the author of the Yangchen and Kyoshi novels and the bottom left is the narrator for the avatar novels

[@justin12378]

And I’m a viewer watching the video.

[@AntoineBandele]

Read 👏🏾 The 👏🏾 Kyoshi 👏🏾 Books 👏🏾

[@Enderflame_303]

I’m re-reading them for the third time 💚❤️‍🔥🪭🪭

[@AustinSamson1999]

And 👏 Yangchens 👏😤👏

[@TheAangGang]

And Rokus in a couple of months.

[@AustinSamson1999]

All 4 of the novels seriously slapped so hard, I bombed through them all and I’m so happy I did cuz it’s some of the best stuff in the entire franchise full stop😭🙌 Kyoshi and Yangchen were so different than I expected them to be in the best possible way, their GOATED avatars for a reason 😤👏

[@idontuploadanym0re]

they’re my two fav avatars ngl!! to be fair, there aren’t many to choose from, but still

[@damongray5763]

I love these books so much. They’re my favorite thing in the entire Avatarverse.

[@Rastasolo188]

My too they are awesome

[@foundingdeer]

Real

[@Galistarwater]

I never actually hated The Great Divide episode, but it was hilarious when the Ember Island Sokka actor exclaimed, "Nah! Let's just fly over it!" Also, I love these books, especially Kyoshi's story, and I hope Avatar Studio will produce a mini 12 episodes animated series about Kyoshi!

[@dagan2000]

i dunno. Kyoshi's story is pretty brutal.

[@silvereyes242]

These avatar books were so awesome. They really expanded the lore and made the brutality of bending so extreme and fascinating to experience.

[@joelramirez4153]

Kyoshi & rangi >>> new fav ship

[@Enderflame_303]

Facts 🥹💚❤️‍🔥🌟🪭🪭

[@Killmonger_9]

New fav ship????

[@IA7Anthony]

This episode was amazing. The outro narration was so unexpected and such a treat lol. I didn't even know who the guest were today so great surprise. "The Great Divide" and "Avatar Day" considered by many as two of the worst episodes. Inspiring so much is amazing, hilarious and shows how great Avatar is altogether.

[@Gabriel77625]

I really wanted a third book about Kyoshi

[@joelramirez4153]

Guys, your books are great! Read them several times, amazing storytelling

[@makalathibodeau7425]

Love this interview! As someone with severe ADHD, I love listening to the audiobook AND read the book at the same time to keep me focused and immersed in the story. Nancy does such an amazing job I never find myself nitpicking anything and I can just enjoy the book.

[@rayjohnson4321]

What a wonderful episode! Thank you for such a wonderful interview. I love the novels and wish there were more people who I could discuss them with! So glad this is here. It’s so cool to know how The Great Divide was such a big influence! His world building is pretty astonishing. As a hard core fan, all of the “Easter eggs” are so satisfying. I also love Nancy’s work. It was so so cool hearing her go into her narration voice for the story you wrote! She’s so incredibly talented and has brought such powerful and specific life to characters from all four novels.

[@laundryparade]

I think this has been one of my favorite episodes.

[@elizabeth4689]

It’s cool to see the VAs still being so involved with the series after so many years

[@jellycore1316]

Aww, yeah, I agree, I getcha ^^ That makes me really happy, too!

[@Windds]

I’m white but Avatar exposed me to so many different cultures. I think it exposed me to embrace different cultures, it gave me different perspectives.

[@kellimcclanahan5191]

Love that she’s from Charleston, WV (my hometown)!

[@islandboy480]

Yesssss!!! New book content!!!!

[@TyroPirate]

With Netflix, Yangchen novel especially would be a great conversion. It's basically the Game of Thrones of the Avatar-verse. I doubt Netflix would play their cards right to make it that caliber though

[@SyfoDias-w7m]

Hearing Zuko talk like a normal person never gets old

[@steabestesnathan662]

My favorite cartoon frfr

[@mswhatsits]

So happy this is here! I want more Avatarverse book love always!

[@DefMM123]

Love the podcast cant wait till you guys get a chance to see the netflix show!

[@randomgeekcrap]

If i close my eyes all i hear is zuko and Korra

[@1sheilajanae]

DANTE! I listened to all the books,and then also got the set so i can see it on my bookshelf and recommend it to anyone in my house lol no shame in it

[@Hearts4Twilly]

KATARA IS MY FAVORITE 🌊

[@Kalle_Demos]

You know, in hindsight, TLOK killing off all the Avatar spirits was pretty dumb. Just retcon it already.

[@thevisionary5135]

They're not killed off. Korra just lost her connection to them

[@ramikarandiv2006]

yeah, it is the dumbest thing that happened in the LOK.

[@AvatarTheLastPodcasters]

Stories have to have weight, stakes, consequences. But yeah they're gone forever.

[@hueyfreeman6262]

​@@AvatarTheLastPodcasters they should have kept tenzin and his kids the only airbenders then not wipe out the past lives

[@pineconerudy1519]

I’m sure that the next avatar is going to be focused on restoring the connection

[@ZombieAndroid]

I love how this channel refuses to acknowledge the live action series. Which is how it should be.

[@TheJProducti0ns]

Nancy and Christian are the cutest omg

[@codernerd7076]

Love how they don't even mention the live action

[@spencerpalmer4961]

Who wants to see the avatar fight against Aavarovs, a Star-touch elf who is connected to 6 primal sources? Or going up against Callum, the first human who has connected the 6 primal magic?

[@Serchsports77]

The best anime element happy 18 years. 🏆

[@makesomething4093]

My jaw dropped when he said Avatar Day and Great Divide. Easily my least favorite episodes in the show, but I will say, from his perspective and his reasoning was about as sound as it could be.

[@Niceri98]

Congrats on getting married Dante!

[@jorgepaine4611]

Yooo lo veré apenas se estreeeeeneee ❤🎉

[@princemannic]

is that ZUKOS VA?

[@WaffleCone927]

Yes. Very cool and decent person

[@godzilla7154]

Interesting

[@LikhitSritej235]

Wow

[@yousefnotfound1229]

What is this live about?

[@spencerpalmer4961]

Talking about creating stories about pervious Avatars and how the connect into the beloved series.

[@Tysurgemeh]

Wait there’s a sky bison with less feet?!

[@dagan2000]

YingYong lost a leg as a calf

[@ApleVrrrrr]

Sup

[@Luka1180]

Sorry, but it's actually pronounced Ee not Yee. But it's a common mistake for Westerners to make :) Yee or Yi is only pronounced like ee if it stands alone though.

[@osirisgem]

I'll be honest since this might my only chance to tell her this, you need more male vocal variety, in the audio book all men sound like one of 4 guys. And to the author, DESCRIBE and ILLITERATE more. You have a bad habit of leaving nothing really described or said in a way the is neither conclusive or coherent. I bought all those audio books, so please know I am not trolling, just constructive critique.

[@sweetiesexyie1537]

Next Avatar series,..

[@matthemming9105]

It's so weird watching this podcast, because I'm used to just listening to it, and picturing Korra and Zuko hosting a podcast

[@jellycore1316]

YESSS XD Canon

[@travisvanalst4698]

I always pictured it as General Iroh and Korra!

[@aresaurelian]

The Great Divide is a great divider. I like it.

[@adiist5194]

1:27 I can already tell, this is gonna be my favourite episode

[@idle_worship]

Nancy Wu is a legend 😌
