Yeah, I guess that one's not as good as the others. I just really liked that part at the begining, and the search for the lotus blossom tile. Episode 10 was okay. I really didn't like episode 11 Episode 12 was great! So was 13 (which I can't seem to find anymore, and I just watched it the other day... the preview is still there...)

Ep. 9 is a matter of taste, methinks. Zutara (Zuko/Katara) shippers seem to like it more than anyone else. XD Ep. 11 is probably the least favorite episode of a majority of the fanbase. >.> Ep. 12 is my second-favorite episode in the series, behind only episode 7 from the second season. Ep. 13 is really fun as well. ^_^ (If you're using TurboNick, just search "Blue Spirit" and you should probably find Ep. 13; sometimes they disappear off the other lists for no reason) *** We might be getting the title to 305 soon. ^_^ Yay for titles! On the other hand, Nickelodeon remains totally inept. Passing up on two never-before-played Schooltime Shipping type shorts just to play their new junk, tsk tsk.

Ep. 12 is really great, but I honestly only like it second best out of the first season, and various second season episodes are better than any first season episode to be honest...
The three that tie for the ones I like most from season 1 are the last three, with the North Pole and Admiral Zhao's big seige. Especially the end of part 2.

Yeah, the season 1 finale was really awesome. ^_^ I especially like how they actually showed the war going on for once, rather than learning about it by hearsay. But I really am a sucker for backstory. XD Particularly when it involves Zuzu.

I liked The Storm for a different reason, actually; it was good character development for Aang and Zuko, and I loved how they mirrored their backstories in a way that showed a connection between them. More recent times watching, I almost would have to say that I liked 13 better than 12 though; Although both are great, there was just something about the quietness and gloomyness of 13 that I really liked. I guess I just liked the directing of it overall...

And the Aang/Zuko mirror = awesome. ^_^ ...now I want to watch The Blue Spirit again... >.> But, yes, I like it too. ^_^

I'm also big on character backstories. They seem to add more depth to the character as well as help the watcher/player/reader connect with them (or at least, that's what happens with me). I also liked 13 for the gloomy-ness. ...The fact that Aang and Zuko were helping eachother out. That was just so cool to me. Also, to me it looked like Zuko had kindasortamaybebarely begun to get a small bond of friendship with Aang, but he was in self-denial over it. *giggle* By any chance does episode 14 have multiple titles (like the 'Winter Solstice' episodes)? I've been doing various searches for 'fortune', 'teller', and 'fortune teller' and haven't up with anything.

He confirms that he and Aang could have been friends if the circumstances were different, but it was too late. I still thought it was great, though. I think it's one word - "The Fortuneteller." But TurboNick might not have it; they are missing a number of episodes. If you really want to see it, you can use the other site, or get it off a DVD... but, you could probably go back to it later, since there isn't really that much in it that's necessary to understand later episodes. (Avatar doesn't turn into "must watch all previous episodes or be highly confused/spoiled" until Chapter 4 or 6 of Book 2, really)

Yeah, The Fortuneteller is actually one of the most stand-alone episodes in the series in fact, as well as one of the most useless to be honest. Really, the only reason I like it is for the humor; otherwise, it's just about the relationship between Aang and Katara, but doesn't really develop it that much...

Okay, so the only think I'd really be missing is some possible Kataang material. Got it. ...By any chance is 'Bato of the Water Tribe' skipable? I've been doing various searches for it without luck. I did find 'The Blue Spirit' though.

XD *still needs to get Earth and Air* They're coming out with similar things called the Earth Kingdom Chronicles - Tale of Aang, Tale of Azula, Tale of Sokka, and Tale of Toph, from Simon and Schuster's website. (fangirl!Ikkin: No Zuko? D: ) The art looks pretty... Bato of the Water Tribe is more important, methinks... >.> It's the end of a mini-arc and sets up for something in season 2... You might want to try to force Putfile to be nice to you for that one. Though, you could probably get away without it without too much confusion.

I just might start using Putfile for my music uploads, though. ...But first! *goes to watch 'The Deserter'* Edit: *headdesk* I just realized that Putfile doesn't use .AIFs, for some reason when I was reading the list I thought I read .aif... I guess not. So it looks like it wouldn't do me any real good, for the time being.
