Essentially, Anime = Animation. The Cartoons you know and love = animation. BUT not all cartoons are animated, ie: your comics section in the news paper, yes the funny pages, all contain comic strips which are cartoons as well.
EITHER WAY!!!!
Let's get back on topic, shall we?
Have any of y'all seen a box set containing all the books/seasons for ATLA? or are they still selling them by the books/seasons?
Sokka's my favorite character haha.
I don't know if anyone's paid attention in the comic book world, but IDW is running an Avatar: the Last Airbender series. I've just picked up two hardcover trades and there's possibly a third coming out too. They take place right after the events of the show, with Zuko now being the Fire Lord, Aang trying to restore peace and harmony across all nations, and Toph starting to teach metal bending at her newly founded school. The first trade is The Promise and the second is The Search.
In The Promise starts off with Zuko, Aang, and Katara, trying to bring peace and harmony back to the nations by removing the Fire Nation colonies out of Earth Nation territory, an sending them all back to the Fire Nation. Problems arise though as Yu Dao (the oldest of the colonies) fights to stay, not only as a colony, but also as a mix of Fire and Earth nation due to many Fire and Earth benders becoming friends and family over the years. Because of Yu Dao's attempts to stay and with Fire Lord Zuko's support, the Earth Nation decides to take over Yu Dao by force. Could this re-ignite the war between Fire and Earth Nations?
In The Search, Zuko seeks answers to the whereabouts of his mother. So he gathers Aang, Katara, and Sokka, as well as Azula in order to learn what happened to his mother. But with Azula being insane, what will she do when she finds their mother?
I must say, as an avid fan of the series and Legend of Korra, I really enjoy the work they've put into the books. They're dead on with the show, and the artwork is just like we remember it. Both books are 238 pages of content, including 12 pages of art sketches and design work for the trade. And I can't really wait for the next one. -fangirls-
Here's a snipit.
Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.

Fine. is there any reason for Korra and Asami not to date? I'd have already written their wedding, but I'm waiting until the end of Season 4 lest one of them be killed off.

Because there's more to the show than just your ships. Also because Korra and Asami don't EXIST in Avatar: the Last Airbender. They only exist in the second part of the Avatar franchise through Legend of Korra.
I could have sworn that I replied to this thread, but apparently not. I love Avatar the Last Airbender. It's kind of amusing that I discovered the show only last year, and on this Facebook group I'm a member of will sometimes posts images saying "like if Avatar was part of your childhood" when it was the complete opposite for me. Oh well, haha. I swear that I can watch ATLA on a weekly basis without getting the least tired or bored with the show. I love everything about it -- the jokes and the journey they all go through with Aang. I will sometimes listen to it in the background on my phone while playing a computer game.
Know what I did just the other week though? I was doing a PowerPoint presentation for my second course in Information and Communication, and I had two options. The first was something for a company and the other was to write about a favourite artist or group. Well, I don't have one anymore so I asked my teacher if it was all right to pick an anime show instead. After she said it was okay, I went ahead and gathered information about ATLA, saving pictures and even had "Agni Kai" play throughout the presentation. Unfortunately, I only managed to get a C on it and it was probably because I had too much text of some of the slides. Not sure if she became interested to watch it though since she's in her forties and anime may not be something she'd enjoy.
Anyway, my absolutely favourite character is Uncle Iroh. His personality is the best and I love his jokes and lines. One particular quote of his that always make me smile and laugh is the episode "The Drill" from the second season.
Uncle Iroh: I know your not supposed to cry over spilled tea, but [cries] it's just so sad!
That one is just priceless to me. Other than him, I really like Sokka. His sarcasm and squeaky voice -- what's not to love? As for favourite episode, I enjoy "The Cave of Two Lovers" and the singing nomads they meet on their way to Omashu. I usually play that one two or three times because the songs are good and happy and just a funny episode.

Favorite Female Character: Katara
Favorite Male Character: Zuko
Favorite Pet: Momo
I wanted Katara and Zuko to be together sooo bad. I was pissed when they didn't.
It did seem like they were going to end up together though, didn't it? They had a few moments where they were completely alone, like when both are held prisoners in the dungeon of the Dai Li. I was hoping that Katara would eventually admit her feelings to Aang since you did get the impression that she liked him back, but at the same time I wouldn't have been disappointed if she ended up with Zuko instead. Who knows what could have happened if Azula hadn't convinced her brother to help her bring down Aang right then and there?
Any particular scene or episode that you liked best? I forgot to mention that the Tales of Ba Sing Se is another favourite. The scene where Uncle Iroh brings a picnic and celebrates the birthday of his dead son, singing "Leaves from the Vine" gets me every time -- every single time -- and I always end up crying. It's so emotional and beautiful. I felt so sorry for Uncle Iroh. And the scene in book one where he tells Zuko that he always thought of him as his son ever since he lost his own son in battle? So sweet.

I hear Azula becomes a fire priestess.
Azula: It puts the spirit water on its skin or else it gets the hose again!

Perhaps... But nothing of Azula is noted following her departure in the The Search storyline following the show. =/ No appearance either in LoK. http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Azula
They have a comic coming out. Maybe we'll find out there.

This cartoon series never caught my attention, to be honest.
I heard that the movie by M. Night Shyamalan was atrocious, but I might watch it someday to see for myself if it's true.
My Wi-Fi, it's gone out . . .
Toph fan for life here. I great series that I hoped never would come to an end but as they say all good things must come to an end buuuuuut what an end indeed. The story was original the martial arts were true to their styles and for me that is huge being a martial artist myself. I tried watching the korra sequel and... I just couldn't get it going to for me. Atleast for me it lost that magic that the first one brought, that and a clear plot.

I enjoyed watching these series. One of the better one shown on TV from where I come. Would gladly recommend it to anyone. It's worth the watch

Anyone know the release date for the Korra comic?
