    Have you LOOKED at her? She's emo. Of course, so's he, and so they're a perfect match.

    To think the likes of him is ruling the Fire Nation...

    Meh, the constant complaining about her rich aristocratic life and the heavy make-up are enough for me. If they had a Hot Topics in the Fire Nation she would be there every weekend. :p

    Are you sure he's ruling the fire nation? I know he underwent his coronation or whatever, but last we saw he was working in a Ba Sing Se tea shop.

    I imagine that he was trying to find a way to pay off the massive war indemnities the other sides placed on the Fire Nation. Being Fire Lord just doesn't have the perks it used to...

    I imagine that while interrogating his father as to the whereabouts of his mother he was overthrown and exiled to the Earth Kingdom. I don't believe anything is ever said to contradict that, so its really the only reasonable conclusion.

    I don't think he was actually working there at that time. They were just having a party in Uncle's Tea Shop and he was the one who made the tea.

    It was pretty apparent, what with him wearing his official tea servers uniform.

    Iroh makes tea. Zuko just serves it. :p


    Also...

    I think it would be awesome if Republic City was a sort of an Avatar version of Ankh-Morpork. :D

    Hooray for Daniel Dae Kim and JK Simmons! :D I don't know any of those other people, though. I'm sure they'll be good.

    You don't know David Faustino? He was Bud Bundy in Married...With Children.

    I'm disappointed in the title change. And am somewhat confused about Tenzin.

    Why? The voice actor is, I believe, in his mid-fifties, and from the chronological placement of the sequel show it was clear that Tenzin's age would be somewhere between 40 and 70... It fits nicely.


    Oh yeah, and one more new thing: the show has been moved to 2012. [face_frustrated]

    I'm picturing all the roles I've seen J.K. Simmons in and having trouble placing him as an airbender or teacher of anything. I'm not saying he's a bad fit, since we don't really know anything about Tenzin, but...it leaves me confused.

    Oh. Well, I don't know any of the mentioned voice actors, so I'm keeping a completely open mind. :)

    Its clear that James Cameron has stolen the word Avatar.
