Yeah, it's the same thing all over again, "Save the world"... Or not? What if it is more than just that? "Avatar: The Last Airbender" tells the story of a world divided in 4 nations according to the 4 elements of nature: Air, Fire, Earth and Water in which people can control those elements (hurl a fireball, create waves,...). The story starts in a time where the Avatar (a person who can control all 4 elements instead of just one) hasn't been seen in 100 years and the Fire Nation wages war on the entire world. At this time two teenage brother and sister find a boy in an iceberg who happens to be not just a "regular boy". "Avatar: The Last Airbender" is to me a great cartoon, and probably my favourite, and I have grown up seeing the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", "Transformers", "Dragon Ball",... It has childish bits of humour, (even though I find myself laughing at them), same objective (but I like that kind of thing) and suffers with Nickelodeon stupid schedules (seriously guys, I hated waiting for episodes and I've been waiting for only 3 months, not like other people who are by now desperate since January), but for a cartoon, it has plenty of character development, side-stories which actually make sense to the main storyline and if you like romances, it has a few too, it has a very well executed idea, the whole story of bending the elements, and a complex world with its war and past. Also it has a politics, cultural differences, warfare,... basically it can be a good lesson for older people as well. Conclusion: a great show with great animation and great fight scenes which not only is for kids but also for grown-ups because it has a very good background and a great story. Recommended!
