So the series is out. it feels very AI generated to me.




Thoughts?

I love real life way more than anime (IN GENERAL) so I would love to hear the other side
Let me start watching it and see

Well I think I just wet myself seeing June and her shirshu lol.

I'm gonna watch later, but it looks neat enough imo. I saw the Last Airbender movie when it came out (midnight showing RIP lol) so anything after that HAS to be good lol.

[piitaahh]

I'll be watching next week.... I'm... cautiously optimistic. I mean, it'll have to at least be better than the movie that came out... right? lol...

[Charizard]

We are definitely watching this tonight
I'm happy they at least call him ayng and not ong. I'm in rofl

The fighting/choreography already looks better in this trailer than it did in the movie-that-doesn't-exist.

Will echo being cautiously optimistic though!

I'm watching this fresh as I've never seen the anime, off the bat I'm not a fan of Aang's casting. Cute kid, but very emotionally flat.
Appa's CG looks nicely done and I'm enjoying the pacing of the storyline, so I'll continue to watch the series.

Side note, Uncle Iroh is the biggest sweetheart. Friend's who have watched the anime report that he was well cast <3

I'm cautiously optimistic. I've been watching shorts on tiktok and I have been getting excited about it. I hope it's good! I just love the casting for Iroh 10/10

That first movie was traumatising so I'm assuming anything's better than that lol. I'll wait for reviews before watching this.

[phantasia]

well I am half way. I feel that the series is good. I think the roles are well cast. The costumes are good. The story line is the same as the anime version for the most part with just slight variations.

I binge watched this yesterday and my thoughts on this are it's pretty decent. I think one of my biggest grips is *SPOILERS*

Please log in to view spoilers.

I do however like Zuko's portrayal in this! And while I thought this was okay it was 100x better than the movie that does not exist in Ba Sing Se, so props to the team for making sure it didn't end up anything like that xD I am curious to see how they adapt book 2 and 3 though!

One thing to add is that I found Aangs and Katara's acting kind of one dimensional and somewhat... lacking? Sokka was great though.
