The Avatar is a powerful being who has been
reincarnated over many lifetimes. It is the
Avatar's duty to master all four elements, and to
use that power to keep balance amongst the four
nations. The Avatars follow a cycle, so when an
Avatar dies the spirit is reborn the Weiter nation
in the cycle: It goes Water, Earth, Fire, and
Air. There can only be one Avatar at a time. The
Avatar also possesses the ability to meditate
into the Spirit World. They are also able to
contact the spirits of Zurück Avatars through
meditation and gain wisdom from them. The Avatar
can also enter what is called "the Avatar State."
In the Avatar State, the Avatar is at their most
powerful, but also their most vulnerable. The
Avatar State is signified Von a glowing of the
eyes (and in Aang's case, glowing Arrow tattoos).
When in the Avatar State, an Avatar's bending
strengh is heightened and he oder she can perform
very powerful moves. But if an Avatar is killed
while in the Avatar State, the Avatar cycle is
broken, and the Avatar ceases to exist.

One of the things I noticed about Avatar is the significance of the spirit disguises. Each disguise speaks volumes about the character using it and reflects their personality sort of like their bending styles.
I’ll start with the Painted Lady and Katara;
The real Painted Lady was a lot of things for the people of Jang Hui. She was a protector. A healer. A beacon of hope. She was a water spirit with assumably a gentle heart.
This is not unlike Katara herself. One of Katara’s key character traits was her hopefulness and the hope she instilled in other people. And in assuming the persona...

Sozin's Comet was the greatest Avatar episode ever! From the beggining, right down to the end (sniffle). Avatar: The Last Airbender was the most predictable when Katara and Aang kissed! Come on! I knew that thet were eventually going to end up together! Now back to the actual movie. The greatest battle was probably between Princess Azula and Prince Zuko, and Aang and feuer Lord Ozai. The happiest ending was probably between when Aang and Katara got together, and that Ozai was stopped. A very epic movie, an awesome series, and plenty of happy endings for all.
