Having "Iroh" as a tier, and stating that he is the best character ever created...these are objectively correct.
Ikr
Ya the dude is like mr miyagi and yoda combined. And then to the one thousandth power
Facts Iroh is the best character in this show, and he's a damn support character
Thank you

First time we saw Zuko crying on his knees in front of a father figure, he got burned and scarred. Season 3 zuko crying on his knees in front of a father figure, he’s accepted and loved
Shows how much of a goat Iroh is and how much of a prick Ozai is
It's so beautiful. If only every young man could have an Iroh, the world would be such a beautiful place.
Wilson Simons yes.
@@stfu_ham3952 hi
Why would you say this! I'm going to work! Lol
There's an aspect of Aang you don't really hear emphasized when people talk about his character. We all know how much grief Aang took on when he discovered the genocide of his people. That's an unfathomable amount of trauma to put on someone, let alone a 12-year-old kid. And we see through multiple other characters in the show how trauma can either change you or transform you entirely. But despite such a deep loss, who Aang is as a person doesn't waver. His perspective and maturity changes, but his peace-keepig values, his caring nature and sense of duty, his fun-loving attitude and sense of humor, and his deep love for those in his life stay firmly rooted in who he is.
Not to mention the Insane amount of responsibility (saving the world) on a 12 years old kid.
I loved how aang’s arc was him keeping his morals and beliefs in a world that wanted to squander it, and I loved that message
Great example of a flat character arc . The unwilling to bend or change his morals even though the world tries so hard to
Unpopular opinion: Aang is my favorite character. I know, I know, main character is usually the favorite, so unoriginal, but come on. It’s flipping AANG. Aang is so goofy and he matured SO much throughout the series. I love how he handles his challenges and how he lets his culture influence him. His back story is so sad, but he doesn’t let that disrupt his character. Even he doesn’t seek revenge. I love how he stuck to his culture and character and created something that’s unimaginable. His backstory is also very understandable from fearing so much responsibility, which is relatable. All this guilt is built up inside of him, but he doesn’t let that destroy him, rather he focuses on the present and tries to carry out his role. What do you guys think?
She doesn't even addressed it but in Manga aang has givven promise to Zuko if he goes nuts like Ozai to take zuko out and even his previous life Roku asks to take his grandsons life but Aang refused and tried peaceful way which exactly suits his character.
The Boulder feels conflicted about not being apart of the tier list
Hahaha great comment
LOL
and here is your award for best comment
But THE BOULDER understands and respects your decision
The boulder, Cabbage Guy, and Foamy should be included cause these are iconic characters
Top five characters are Iroh, Zuko’s uncle, Ozai’s brother, the dragon of the west, and Mushi
😂

Katara with her hair down too
SOKKA WITH HIS HAIR DOWNNNNNNNN

Hear me out
Suki without her face paint and kyoshi outfit
chibi :3 ewwww
Iroh having his own tier AND Zuko being up there with him? Preach. Also love seeing Sokka get the love he deserves.
Honestly, Zukos redemption arc and relationship with Iroh is so crazy strong that even seeing him lifted to Irohs height on a CZcams tier list makes me emotional.
The worst thing about Suki is that she’s barely in the show until the end of the 3rd book
What no.. I liked her
But in Book 2 she's so sweet especially when talking about and then helping Appa, that's when I really started to love Suki
She actually wasn't planned to return after season one but was so popular that they brought her back.
@@buolea honestly I just binged the show for the first time and honestly I loved Suki I'm glad they brought her back for the last season
Exactly I wanted more Suki

Personally, I didn't understand when Katara tried to find and kill the man who killed her mom and she acted like Aang wouldn't understand when his entire race was wiped out leaving him no living parents, grandparents, or siblings
hahaha
Katara normally wouldn't say something like that to Aang or Sokka, but having the prospect of avenging her mother effectively turned her into a different person. It's like when Azula dangled the prospect of finally capturing Aang in Ba Sing Se to Zuko. Zuko is close to putting that behind him, but Azula ropes him back into being a more violent version of himself.
That's what Zuko does to Katara when he gives her the possibility of avenging her mother. However, he also watches out for her throughout the journey as Iroh did for him. Zuko knows that killing Yon Rha wouldn't truly help Katara, but he also knew she needed closure on the matter. Ultimately, he handled the situation very well, and it's really shocking and horrifying to see Katara become so spiteful. Plus her flashback hits harder than almost any other moment in the show besides Zuko's reunion with Iroh. Suddenly it all makes sense why Katara takes betrayal so hard, why she's so distraught about losing people close to her. She literally found the corpse of her mother in the tent that she ran away from not 5 minutes earlier. That scene and The Southern Raiders ties everything together for Katara's character. It's why I believe it's the best stand-alone episode of the entire series.
Also she knew her mother before she died and how wonderful a person she was. Aang knew his people and everything but never had a real maternal figure in his life.
@@torrinbianchi5283 Monk Gyatso was basically his father. Or really more like both parents to him.

I recently watched atla and had NO idea that meme came from him and LOLED SO HARD WHEN I HEARD IT XD I did NOT expect that ahaha!
I'm so pretty, look at me, I can walk on my hands, WOOOOO 😂😂😂
Talking about girlfriends which turned into moon why Yuei is not here she helps Katara a lot and so.
Perfect example of sometimes that's all you need to say to someone's who's down and just needs to vent
I just loved that Katara was the one who defeated Azula as I see them as two sides of the same coin. They both lost their mother and were neglected because their fathers only cared about the war (in a way they both sort of see it as their purpose). Both girls felt great pressure to be a certain way. Azula had every privilege and Katara had to fight for everything, however Katara was free, when Azula was a slave. Katara went and fought for what she believed in while Azula was sent by her father to serve his purposes.
Both Azula and Katara were very driven, and got what they wanted by using whatever method they found necessary. However Katara had propuse, while Azula didn't and that's why she lost her mind.
Katara was nagging her friends because she didn't want to force them to do stuff, she cared about their common goal and without her neither Aang, Sokka or Toph would have gotten anywhere.
I love her because she didn't care to be the center of attention, she just went on and did what she had to do. She let her friends shine.
Katara was pretty much as powerful as Azula, when she almost killed Aang it was Katara who saved him both by getting him out be by healing him.
Some may say that Azula turned out like that because she didn't have Uncle Iroh, however Katara didn't really have a father figure and chose to be nurturing and loving.
I love Katara because she was so resilient and brave, it takes more courage to be like Katara than to be like Azula.
Also, Katara was INVENTING water bending techniques, no one taught her, whatever she knew beforehand she had discovered by herself, and she did freeze a couple of soldiers in the beginning.
Finally! Katara is so underrated by fans and deserves much more love! Ppl usually just see her as "annoying mom girl, stopping others from having fun", when actually this bunch of kids would not have gotten anywhere without her.
(Don't get me wrong, i love other characters as well, just see the point of this comment)
OMG finally someone who actually liked katara, she is my fave 🤗 and everyone just makes memes like:
Someone: breathes
Katara: my mother used to breathe
But it's not like that she does not even talk about her a lot and katara went through a lot of change and she learned to have some fun like in the episode "the runaway" and she is really good at waterbending and imagine your mother died and your older brother said you were basically his mother, katara was used to being a mom to sokka and that's why she is the "mom" of team avatar and people call her annoying, but she was living with all this guilt and frustration after her mom died and she was in the tent and at first blaming herself but then she focused all the blame on that one dude and never letting it out and just trying to be kind and pulling everyone together but toph made her snap and sometimes she just get ticked off and let her emotions out but then pulls everything back in and being kind again and in the beginning, she was depending on aang a lot to do mostly everything but later (end of season 2/ season 3) she learned not to depend on him so much, she was already powerful by herself. Sorry for ranting :/
@@a_karch Why are females characters, especially good ones like Katara, so easily hated?
@@drfifteenmd7561 probably because she’s a Mary Sue and can be very annoying
I agree on your take and I also love both of these girls but the "azula was like that because she didn't have iroh" is what get me because i do agree on that. Yeah katara didn't have iroh either but she also didn't have ozai as father figure? These two indeed are parallels, both are child prodigy, lost their mom, are superior compared to their brothers in term of power but katara despite not having father figure still has grangran and sokka (who is a good brother to her). She still have a loving community around her and born with loving nature thanks to her parents genes. But in azula's case, in one side she has this mad king as a father and ursa (as much as i like her) didn't really have any influenece on her and didn't know how to handle azula so she choose to just side with zuko instead. She's very absent mom for azula (not hating on ursa here since she's also abused by ozai) and iroh never really been closed to her since he was once a general and by the time he went back from war, azula was too far gone under ozai's influence but he still has hope for zuko since he knew zuko has a good heart. Azula didn't have anyone except her father who sees her as weapon, turning her into this monster that we knew her in the series. I knew we've seen her being bad ever since she was little, it's part of her nature indeed but i believe she wouldn't turn as BAD as in the series if she was born in a more normal household. Maybe she could turn bad like kuvira when she's grown but this monster that is azula that we know came from both nature and nurture and i think the nurture part has a bigger portion especially when you grew up in this dysfunctional royal family. I used to believe azula was irredemable but the more i look into it the more i believe she could at least be normal. Not this war weapon that his dad has turned her into.
Aang is my favorite character. I have never admired someone so profoundly. Aang lost everything he loved (except for Appa), and he did not even have the time to process his loss. Even though Aang might seem immature, it's just his way of trying to still have a childhood and deal with his grief. Aang loves to have fun with Team Avatar because it was something he never got to experience. Even though he is quite goofy, he is undeniably the bravest character on the show. He never hesitates to help others, and yet he never wants to harm others in the process. Aang is kind, empathetic, caring and honest, despite the trauma he has been through. He always sees the best in people and I aspire to be like him.
100% agree. Aang inspires me a lot 🥺
same Aang is literally one of the few main characters I love sm ❤️
he lost appa for a while too

That would be whack!
It’s crazy how they have so many amazing female characters but never feel the need to outwardly be like “look at how we added powerful female characters” they just made incredible characters who happened to be female
I never even noticed how many female characters was in the show tbh. That shows how great the female characters are.
Contrast with the Avengers End Game “girl power” scene. Total opposite
same with fmab, stellar character writing across the board for both
Its almost like if you write a good character no one cares about genitals
@@strider3164 yeah man fr that scene was good and all but honestly it was a little cringy
the fact that appa wasn't put in iroh tier - he carried the show
i mean since he´s literly cary the squad of main characters he quite literly carried the show
literaly.
So true... 😅
On his back....
In the rain....
Uphill....
Both ways....

For me, the part of the series that made me first absolutely love Katara was when the gaang was in the desert after appa was kidnapped. Katara kept them moving. In that moment, she was strong enough to essentially save all of their lives and kept the last shred of hope from dying.
Zuko to Iroh: "How could you forgive me so easily?"
Me: "Love, Zuko. _True_ love."
That reunion scene makes me cry every single time! It is so heartwrenching, sweet, and beautiful.
Just think:
Ozai disfigured and banished his son merely for speaking out of turn (and in genuine concern for his subjects). Iroh forgave his nephew's betrayal without hesitation. Ozai shot lighting at his son, with intent to kill, because his son dared to follow his own path. Iroh could not even fathom shooting lightning at his nephew, even for training purposes.
Ozai may have been Zuko's biological father, but Iroh was always and forever his true father, his dad.

Was he cranking that while he sung?
I think the most interesting fact about Momo, is that he was intended to be monk Gyatso reincarnated. They likely didn't include it in the story because it'd take a lot of development, with little need for it. But it's cool to think about on rewatches!
Maybe that will add it into the live action show.. theyve already said they will be expanding the world and develepment...
I didn't know that piece of trivia until I read your comment, and...yeah, it does nothing for me. They did good leaving that out.
I... it actually takes it back for me a little bit. Don’t know why but that bugs me. A lot
I think it is much better if Gyatso and Momo have nothing to do with each other. There simply isn't a need for it, and it would just drag on the lore (which is perfect the way it is).
@@rhian6459 although it could explain how momo exists when literally everything from the air nomads disappeared, particularly there being no other lemurs or sky bison, except for momo. Could also explain why momo right after being chased by Aang decides to join the squad, as animals typically take longer to befriend, he even knew to give sokka food to avoid being the food. 🤔🤔
You: “This show will never give us a character and leave us with one layer of them, they all have depth”. Everyone: FS we all know the cabbage guy
i mean in the end he kinda stopped to care and just took it
"Toph is the most Lovable Brat" is the most accurate thing I ever heard...
Azula’s mental break is in part due to not having an “Iroh-figure” in her life. Iroh loved Zuko, he was his mentor, but from their childhood he sort of ignored Azula (giving her a doll “because she’s a girl” for example, when Azula’s upbringing and ambitions go beyond that)
I also love Iroh, and what I wrote just makes him more human. He’s not perfect and that’s great.
César Oróstegui yeah, and also there is only so much you can do, he messed up already
To be fair Azula was very unlikable even as a child
I think the giving her a doll was him just trying to humanize her. To make her feel more like a normal girl because that's what she needed; she just didn't appreciate the gesture. Zuko had low self-esteem and wanted really hard to be takebn seriously, so the knife made more sense.
but I'm still with you, Iroh kind of gave up on Azula very quickly; but he never gave up on Zuko
@@mariosblago94 I don´t think Azula needed to be more like a girl. She needed someone to respect her and probably do something Ozai never did, take her the way she was. I think Ozai made her what she was and he could do so, because Azula had no other role model at all. That´s why I like the what if scenario of Piandao training Zuko in the art of the sword, but also Azula. That could have given her an alternative and planted a seed to grow quietly. Iroh could have done so, too yet I think she´d respect someone like Piandao more easily than the 'weak' uncle.
@@mariosblago94 I think he got her a doll because he didn't know what else TO get her. Getting Zuko a knife made sense because Zuko was being treated as less than Azula, and Iroh wanted to help him.
Hello everyone. Let me demonstrate how to make thousands of adults cry at the same time: "Leaves from the vine, falling so slow. Like fragile tiny shells drifting in the foam. Little soldier boy, come marching home. Brave soldier boy, come marching home."
It's "Brave soldier boy, COMES marching home," get it right!
**cries in guitar twang**
Actual feels though.
I always get chills when I hear that song...
You cruel, cruel person.
HOW DARE YOU
I think that we ought rename the Redemption Arc to the Zuko Effect. I had never seen a character make so dramatic a change in their story before ATLA, and I have never seen it since. Zuko is the Prodigal Son come home, what Anakin Skywalker would be if he had had a happy ending. Zuko is the brave soldier boy who came marching home.
Also, the fact that there's an Iroh tier above Perfect tier is just... yes.
These days when a new show comes out people try to guess who’s getting “the Zuko arc.”
Apparently Zuko was added in very late. He wasn’t originally a part of the story. Which makes how his story was made and written even more incredible
Yeah, he was one the last characters to be added because they realized that Ozai wouldn't personally go to fight all the time

I just realized how many strong female characters there are in avatar
Avatar succeeds in that category when a lot of anime fail female character development AHEM literally any girl from Naruto
It is because the show handled female characters well.
Usually they're either ignored or they have hardcore feminists in the writing room who want to turn them all into invincible, flawless, super heroes who solve all problems on their own. It is very rare to find a female character that is really well done and Avatar pulled it off.
@@cabdirahman9000 I hope Sarada is not gonna be like them...
And all in different ways too! Toph is a strong woman in a completely different way to how Katara is strong. And they're not afraid to have them be weak either.
Just goes to show the correct way of writing a strong female is to just write a strong character, and there you're done.
@@Conflict-ff5pi couldn't agree more. ATLA did all their characters wonderfully even Jet lmaooo. Idk why anime focus on boys only or why they make the girls only for fan service or give them the "I'm head over heels in love with a bad boy" trope
You forgot the scene where iroh was crying as he was ignoring zuko to force him to reflect on himself
Sa sad... Seeing Zuko is confused and Iroh could not help him...
“There’s not a single character I would put below fine”
Zhao “Hold my dead moon spirit”
One of my favourite little scenes is on the beach when Sokka is making a sand sculpture of Suki, and it looks absolutely terrible, everyone is laughing at it, and Suki says "I think it's sweet", and Sokka slides up to her and gives her the biggest smooch on the cheek.. This scene is just SO SWEET and casual and just such a good representation of their beautiful healthy loving relationship. Just thinking about this scene is enough to make me smile. I adore these two together. ❤
Oh my gosh that is so cute I loved that
@@oliver_fast Lol yeah, Sokka's artistic skills are impeccable.
WAIT. You forgot the most important character. The best one of the show. The most adored and loved character whp struggles through so much hardship and never wins... The Cabbage Man
He wins BIG time in the future soooo BIG
On The Legend of Korra they implied he went on to create a huge corporation
By the second sentence, I was already having flashbacks of the character. 😂
@Hans Hanzo Hi! I'm Ju-di
"Our tier ranking is fine, incredible, perfect, and Iroh"
I've never agreed with something more xD
I just realized that Iroh invented lighting redirection like how he redirected Zuko’s path in life
Sokka’s depth as a a character and his arc are SOOO underrated.
Right! Weirdly enough, even before the show came to Netflix, I always remembered Sokka as the mastermind who always concocted plans to deal with Team Avatar's problems from WHEN I WAS A KID. And when I rewatched, my love for him was renewed because him not having bending had so much more impact to his badass-ness.
@King Tyrone I agree..but coud it be that redemption is more flamboyant narratively than the slow burn growth of Sokka, both are difficult to write well though.
i have such a love hate relationship with sokka - i hated him at first as i have no patience for misogyny - but he’s just so damn cute i have to love him
Siva Pingali That’s definitely how I see it. Sokka’s journey is more about growing up and becoming confident in himself as a leader, whereas zuko’s journey is about rejecting his family and what he’s been taught in favor of a better way. They’re both finding themselves, but we saw Sokka grow into what he always wanted to be. Zuko had to realize that he doesn’t actually want to be what he always thought he did. One is a lot more apparent than the other.
I loved sokkas arc as well, he was definitely my favorite character other than zuko
Momo’s short story bumps him up to incredible tier. It shows Momo’s loneliness and empathy towards others (even those who wronged him).
True... He was a good pet.
Momo is second best character period
He is not a good character.
Momo and Appa should be on the iroh tier
Momo deserves better. When Appa gets lost during book two Momo takes it really hard. He doesn't speak, but we can still feel his sadness.
Merphy: Puts Momo on Fine*
Momo fans: >:[
Everyone else: That's rough buddy
I can’t believe that Lord Momo of the Momo dinasty, his Momoness was just a fine character.
and his theme music is great
He's fine as HELL
IKR, its like, Harry potter and the audacity of this bitch
@@mackinnleykox5765 thank for this
I love how the show addresses that people dont always get along in a realistic way! So good to see a kids show talk about that! I personally love katara and find myself agreeing with her when toph and sokka roll their eyes. Honestly I would say my opinions on toph and katara are mirrored with yours. Both great characters but I dont have much to say about toph other than shes hilarious. Just goes to show how skilled the writers are!
@Hans Hanzo low-key perfect is a great way to put it. Imo zukos transformation would have been severely crippled if team avatar immediately accepted him. It would seem lazy and kinda cheesy. Katara kept that from happening by being so critical of him, and since they laid a foundation for her mistrust it didnt feel unjustified. Just perfect.
I love Katara, she's an extremely complex character. The writers did an incredible job when they created a sweet and caring girl who hide such a great trauma and also a dark side of her. She's also a female character who doesn't fall in any of the cliché of female characters: she's caring and sweet but she's also temperamental and bossy, she's the maternal figure but she's also passional and intriguing, she's the healer but she's also a bad ass fighter.
Yup. I was surprised when in the 1st season she said she wasn't a Katara fan... Weird. She's one of the most likeable-relatable characters trough out the whole series
@@TheBLBrothers What I love about Katara is how real she is as a character. When her and Zuko go off to find the man that killed her mother, and she can't bring herself to kill the man, I thought they were going to go the standard route of her forgiving him like you would see in other cartoons. But instead, they went in a completely different direction and had her STILL hold onto that grudge and outright say that she will never forgive him and she basically only didn't kill him because she didn't want to stoop to his level.
@@undead890 yeah! This show her great complexity. Katara's reaction in the southern riders episode is totally realistic. She's is not a murderer, but she cannot forgive that piece of shit and this is incredibly well written
A character: *exits*
Her: I LoVe tHeM
That Azula moment when she says it hurt that her mom thought she was a monster, even if it was true, I just... My heart broke
Man, this video completely ignored the main purpose of tier lists: To infuriate people who disagree with you and spark argument in the comments. It's too wholesome and correct.
I agree
I mean it did infuriate me a little by putting appa at incredible
arnav gupta and putting momo in the “fine” tier
@@qxraxx ?
Momo is ehh tho. I forgot he was in the show until he showed up.
I never thought "man. Can't wait for momo to come on screen and do some bit for shits and giggles!"
Aang is the better character in the show, above iroh
Iroh is the uncle that we all want. But why have an uncle like that when you can be that uncle. Teach your children, and family, kindness, and love, and dont ever give up. My brother has been through so much in his life, and I have always been there for him. He has never really realized it. And when I am there for him he turn me away, just like zuko did. But there will be a time were my brother will need me, and I won't turn away from him. I will be there for him. Be the person you want to have in your life.
That’s amazing! You sound like a wonderful person.
@@stripedblueoranges525 Iv try my best to be and that all I can really do. Simple acts of kindness an love will go far in your life.
Hmm. You are correct. I have three children under 4 with my wife and I shall be their Iroh
May you live a long, blessed life.
Remember that Zuko said 'Maybe you can defeat my father uncle?'
Imagine how strong elder actually he is.
I can see why you'd be put off a bit by Katara being naggy sometimes, but I think most of her nagging really comes from the fact that she's a mature and levelheaded person in a group that involves a a young boy who is still learning how to fully grasp the the heaviness of some of his duties as the Avatar, a blind little girl who constantly dishes out rude and sassy remarks about almost anything, and her brother, who can be as rational as she is on some occasions but does have a tendency to goof around and act a bit cockily. If I was in a group that involved people with those tendencies, trying to keep them in line so they don't come to blows is something I would do, so I was honestly never that surprised that Katara would feel the need to watch over them.
I loved Toph and her blind jokes where she'd point out she can see something and the Gaang actually believe her 😂😂
"And since you can't see, I'll tell you I'm rolling my eyes"
@@NippleTechnology-cc8bg Azula was actually very considerate in this scene.
It's funny you say that cause that last thing said in Avatar WAS a Toph Blind Joke lmao.
Because she's so good at earthbending that mostly, it doesn't show that she's blind! Only when they're in the air, or something's thrown at her, or the countless times the Gaang just assume she can *read* !
Library?
On my most recent watch through, I was very impressed by Aang’s gradual maturity. He’s so goofy, and childish before he visits with Roku, and then after he learns about sozins comet, he becomes a more serious pupil to his becoming the avatar. I love how he starts the show as “I never wanted [to be the avatar]” and ends it with “the avatar is back.” He maintains his goofy personality, which I love, but noticing his devotion to his beliefs, friends and responsibilities really made me appreciate Avatar Aang more on this most recent watch through. Thanks so much for this video, Avatar the Last Airbender is most definitely my favorite series, with some of the most incredible characters - I genuinely loved hearing your opinions on these characters 🙏🏼
There is no negative tiers in ba sing se
I hated Azula throughout the entire series, but I completely agree with you. She had a great story and was really well written.
When you aren’t in Iroh tier “That’s rough buddy”
BAHHAHAHAHA
“Iroh is the best character that’s ever been created full stop”
Get out of my head
No you get out of MY head
I disagree
tag groen 39 what character do you think is better ?
@@taggroen3950 I disagree with you breathing.
Random Loser woahhh
"This character will never give us a character and leave us with one layer of them"
Well.....except for Ozai. Although honestly I liked how we had a classic big bad super evil guy who we barely even knew anything about for most of the show, and the much more interesting but less powerful Azula to be a recurring antagonist
Well, Ozai does have layers. It's just that they're difficult to parse. Usually, layers are like good stacked on top of bad, bad stacked on top of good, perfection stacked on top of a mountain of personal issues, etc., like "This character acts bad but they're actually conflicted," or "This character is sweet and motherly but will also slap a bitch," but Ozai's layers are more like impersonal evil stacked on top of worse personal evil.

Aaaaaaand now I’m crying
@@jgig1329 we all are
I wish Appa was higher he carried the whole show literally :(
Appa’s lost days was so sad to watch, I was literally crying throughout the whole thing
I started loving Zuko in Season 2, and ended up squealing in delight every time he even breathed. Then he got even better in Season 3. He’s my favorite character in anything ever.
To be honest Aang is my favourite character. I like that he could still be happy despite losing his people, he was able to keep moving despite his grief. He also was so wise and smart in his own way, but it never felt forced or overdone. Just seeing his growth from running away from his problems, to accepting his role as the avatar was brilliant. Toph, Iroh and Zuko also have my heart, but Aang just has me tearing up whenever I see him. Also his relationship with appa was beautiful.
I also think Katara is quite overlooked as a character. She is seen as a mother/killjoy of the group, but without her team Avatar wouldn't have gotten far. She is the glue of the team (as shown in the desert episode). She may not be my favourite but I feel shes overlooked.
Yes, I agree fully with everything you said. Aang is also my favorite character, I'm glad someone feels the same way!
Katara is still an amazing character. In any other show she'd probably be my favorite. But this is Avatar, it has characters that take up four spots in my top 10 favorite characters of all time with Iroh, Zuko being the top 2.
Yesss finally some appreciation for Aang.
That’s what I’m saying I swear whenever I watch an avatar video they always talk about how good iroh and Zuko was as a character. But never talk about aang
@@jack-rz2be Ikr. He has the best personality ever and all anyone cares about is Zuko's looks. Aang is sweet, caring, understanding, optimistic, playful, goofy, smart, strong, brave, powerful, empathetic, trustworthy, and adorable. He is so underrated it hurts. He's my favorite
One of my favorite jokes in the show is still the one where they enter the earth kingdom palace in season two and are completly baffled by the fact that the emperor has a regular bear, that bear should be in iroh tier for the simple fact that he's the only normal animal in the entire series, an absolutley unique character
"no, just bear"......*visible confusion
@Mubashir Haroon oh yeah, I think they had normal insects like ants and mosquitos, now that I think about it they seemed to have normal fish and frogs, so maybe only the mamals are fusions
*silence*
...This place is weird.
Theres also the fact that they didn't know what the foxes were when they went to the library
😂😂😂 yeah i love that
katara should’ve been higher tbh. she literally held the group together, the group needed her and not to mention, her insane improvement in water bending throughout the show. aang would’ve died without her. more respect for katara cmon
Surely the singing Nomads should be included in the ‘Iroh’ tier?! ‘Two lovers, forbidden from one another
A war divides their people, and a mountain divides them apart.
Built a path to be together.
... (yeah I forget the next couple of lines but, uh, then it goes.)
Chorus:
Secret tunnel!
Secret tunnel!
Through the mountain!
Secret, secret, secret, secret tunnel! Yeah!!!!’
finally someone's giving sokka the love and affection he deserves
I’ll give I’m all my love he is SUCH A FINE man and I live by that put that on my grave stone don’t say rip jocee say rip sokkas WIFE

Me: Thinks back to Iroh's short in Tales of Ba Sing Se
Also Me: "I'm not crying, I'm just practicing my tearbending."
Me seeing this notification a year ago: aww Merphy I love ya, but why are you watching a kids show
Me now: "I"M ANGRY AT MYSELF!!!!"
Na, Katara wasn’t trying to be the mother figure in my opinion, she WAS the mother figure. She got the gang through a bunch of rough patches with her astounding leadership and maturity. I think she’s the most compelling character in the series after iroh and Zuko.
I’m sorry but this is incomplete. How could you rank the characters of ATLA, but not have the Cabbage Merchant???
We all now he's perfect
My top 5: Fire Nation Outcast Iroh, Fire Nation General Dragon of the West Iroh, Earth Kingdom Commoner Iroh, Memorial Iroh that certainly doesn't make me cry every time I see that episode, Imprisoned Iroh, and bonus Grand Lotus Iroh.
🥺
honestly, Earth Kingdom commoner Iroh is the best one in my opinion. He and Zuko just want to live a normal life after everything that happened in the Fire Nation. The happiness that Iroh gets when he finds out he can get a tea shop is so cute! And also the Tea Shop was a great place to end the series on.
Tea shop Iroh is UNDERRATED
I dont like the disrespect that Katara gets in general, shes a legend... bump her up a tier!
AGREED. Katara is the catalyst of the story-she frees Aang and is the first one to believe in him. People understate her importance in the progression of the story.
@Rachel O'Reilly same. I respect her character, but I just can't get invested in her.
@Tom Ffrench There was no full moon when they fought the Fire Lord though
@Tom Ffrench she can only bloodbend on the full moon
Warning: *katara Stan and bias*
lmao, I love that ur tier list makes me mad because it means I’m actually passionate about this show 😂 BUT; Katara being ranked behind Mei and Suki really bothers me. Katara lost her mother at a young age and her father left to fight in the war, she was pushed into a mother role from a young age out of obligation and that’s unfortunately the cause of her nagging and nosiness but also the cause of her drive and her ability to take care of others. She went from being able to splash ice water at someone (after missing a few times) in episode 1 and 2 of season 1 to being a master of bending basically by then end of season 2 (less than 2-3 months later) where she’s able to fight off Azula more capably than Zuko and Aang both could at the time. She was a figure to inspire those who were held or restricted to an idea to break that and follow your desires (season 1, women not being allowed to water bend). In Season 3 she really demonstrates her will and love for people in the Painted Lady episode where the rest of her team, particularly Sokka were contempt with leaving these people the way they were (because there was nothing they could do). THE ACTUAL SPIRIT EVEN THANKED HER - A HOLY ENTITY. When she pursued her mothers killer she showed restraint and awareness that most people wouldn’t be able to exhibit in a moment of revenge. She didn’t kill her mothers killer even though she wanted to. She froze her and azula.
I don’t think she’s really talking about that what we’re talking about her power we’re talking about the shift in character, she always has from the kindest nicest girl to a conceded bitch forgetting that Toph had no friends and been kept in the house, Sokka thought he had to protect the whole tribe by himself, Zukos dad hated him and challenged his 13 y/o son to an Agni Kai and mom died(not really), and Aangs whole family(the nomads) died when he could’ve saved them all if he had just stayed at his temple. She just constantly thinks her problems are worse then the whole gAang when she probably has the easiest out of all of them(except sokka)
@Rachel O'Reilly People like her ships more than her character actually. I'm a Katara stan over a Kataang or Zutara stan anyday.
hi wizone and avatar fan!
annabell hiii 😂✨
@@wonyoungyie1536 nice to see someone with same interest 😝 lol sorry
When you put Iroh in his own tier, I got so frickin happy. His scenes are the ones that make me cry (besides Appa’s Lost Days). When Iroh teaches the one dude how to mug correctly was great, but when he sang about his son made me cry. But what made me cry the most is when Iroh just hugged Zuko and told him that he wasn’t angry, but sad just broke my heart and I cried. Iron’s such an amazing character and you can’t change my mind. I also really love how flippin upset Zuko was over the fact that he felt like he betrayed Iroh. He says it was the biggest mistake of his life. Not failing to catch Aang. Not speaking out of turn when he was with Ozai. Not even when he left Mai by herself. But when he was betraying Iroh
I didn't cry in leaves from vine. I cried at the reunion.
Zuko's body movement shows how pathetic he felt, how much self hatred he had for how he treated his uncle. Iroh was afraid that his nephew will judge him for being white lotus and keeping it secret from him, then understood he was not there for judging, he was there to apologize.
Thank you.
"I'm putting him at-MOVE MAY" I died laughing
RIP MythKp passed away while watching a video about ALTA, the last thing he ever heard was dante basco saying "that's rough buddy'.
