"In my defense, I didn't have cable." That. That really explains everything.

Let’s all say it together: Thank You, Kevin!!!!

Remember guys, bullying is wrong, unless you're bullying someone into watching Avatar, that is always right

Let's all take a moment to thank Kevin for being a real one for getting Emily a copy of ATLA. Thank you Kevin.

“I said it was *FEELS* of Ba Sing Se not *FUN* of Ba Sing Se”

Everything was fine, until Emily said she didn't watch Avatar

“That’s rough buddy” is so iconic even people who didn’t watch avatar probably know it

Man... only the sound of Iroh singing in tales of Bah-Sin-Se made me cry already, this episode is a masterpiece.

emily 0.00001 seconds after seeing the only air head in the show: omg i love her alrady

"my girlfriend turned into the moon" "that's rough buddy"

The Uncle Iroh episode is doubly sad, because the VA playing him died few months prior to release of the episode, so that was one of the last performances we've seen from him on the show.

4:25 Of course they kissed. If you rewatch attentively, you'll notice: 1- They closed their eyes just before it went completely dark, so they wouldn't immediately notice the light coming back. 2- There was a good moment between it going completely dark and the crystal beginning to glow; considering they had already closed their eyes before, they were probably a couple seconds into their kiss before the first crystals started glowing; but again, they had their eyes closed so it wouldn't interrupt them anyway. 3- As Katara got chatty in awe of the crystals, they were still vwry close and holding hands, their fingers intertwined, in a way that would be awkward unless their had just shared some degree of intimacy. 4- When Aang tried to say something (probably confess his love, as he's been trying since 'The Fortuneteller') and Katara just ran away, Aang smiled rather than being disappointed, which means he at least got the kiss. 5- After leaving the cave Aang is all smug about 'trusting in love', subtly showing his desire to boast about his long-desired kiss. 6- When the hippies sing the last song, Katara blushes as they talk about love in the dark, as she recalls what just happened. 7- From here onwards, every single romantic moment between them has the musical leitmotif play again, meaning this is where their romance first blossomed. This scene also comes back in flashbacks such as when he's opening the chakras. So obviously they kissed. To finish all of this off, the creators have confirmed this moment was their first kiss. Whether the kiss is actually what made the rocks light up or that was just Katara's excuse for kissing Aang, I don't know.

“My first girlfriend turned into the moon” the best spoiler with no context in history

Zuko: *did jet just.. die?* Sokka: *y’know it was really unclear*

"I can take it.. you've never held back before". ~ And Zuko alone was a very impactful episode. He does his best by folks, and reveals who he truly is, only for those same people to hate him simply for who he is, and not seeing who he's trying to become. He even gave his childhood dagger to the boy, only for it to be thrown back at him. Besides Iroh and Mai, Zuko really didn't have anyone close to him that truly cared for him. It makes his growth all the more meaningful, and his eventual friendship with the Aang-gang deeply touching.

Held back tears while also smiling when she cried during Leaves From the Vine. I'm glad the show still holds up and makes me feel everything I felt when first watching it, even after having seen it dozens of times.

Ty Lee: **murders someone in cold blood** Emily: "SHE'S SO CUTE"

There is no shame in crying to Iroh's song to his son.

You know you've become a fan when you can repeat the entire intro with the bending moves lol. This show is the best tv series of all time and I'm glad you got to enjoy it.

Zuko redirecting his fathers lightening has never hit so damn hard before. I cannot believe as kids we all got to watch a show so so so good.

Omg, her reaction to Jet dying was the same as Zuko. Zuko: "Did Jet just... _die?"_ Sokka: "You know, it was really unclear."

Emily:cries when iroh sings Me:first time huh

As uncle Iroh once said "sometimes life is like this dark tunnel. You can't always see the light at the end of the tunnel, but if you just keep moving... You will come to a better place." Basically compared to now having watched ATLA from before your life just got better.

Even now as a grown man hearing Iroh sing leaves from the vine breaks me and I can’t hold back tears.

Her fangirl noises sound exactly like the guy from Kiyoshi Island who foams at the mouth every time he sees Aang

emirichu on most epic avatar scenes: *silence* emirichu on characters kissing: *GYAAAAAHDHJSHJ*

Something I always thought was interesting about Ty Lee was that in the Ember Island episode she said she was worried about ending up being stuck in a matched set, but then at the end of the series she joins the Kyoshi Warriors who all dress exactly the same and use Kyoshi's fighting style. I'm really wishing we got to see more of her inner thoughts and feelings, because this choice, at-least on a surface level, feels similar to what she said she was trying to get away from.

My best friend in college also had never watched the show. We were roommates out final year and she found me listening to it while studying. I was in the middle of season 1 at the time and she asked a ton of questions so I put the first episode on. I left that weekend to go home and I come back to find her on season 3 totally hooked

“Nobody wants another video essay on Avatar” Avatar fans: “Please, do it.”

Fake we all know that aang defeats the fire lord by telling him he is wearing no pants

My Favorite character from Atla Was Katara. The girl with power but equally emotions. I just loved her character Arc. The Scene when Aang goes into Avatar state while confronting sandbenders everyone get back slowly slowly but katara was still and hugged Aang in that scene I fall in love with her. She is Amazing Waterbender as well as the best female powerful character written in past two decades. I just loved my girl ❤

I love zuko with all my heart like he's so amazing and the writer who wrote his personality development is insane like i would give ANYTHING TO HUG ZUKO

*I remember I use to pretend I was a waterbender in the shower lol*

Jet: *dies* Emily: Did he just die? Me: *You know, it was really unclear*

zuko kissing the girl in ba sing se was the absolute best! and his whole “it was nice” is one of my favorite zuko parts ever!… wish they explained that he went back for her after the war and they ended up together… really really wanted that to happen also zuko apologizing to Iroh is still the best zuko and Iroh scene ever. 10/10

Still can’t believe Avatar made such a resurgence in 2020. So glad to see fans are still discussing the franchise today! Looking forward to what Avatar Studios has cooked up in the future.

It took me forever to realize "The Boulder" is a reference to "The Rock".. I'm so dumb.

"I was never angry with you Zuko. I was only sad, because I thought you had lost your way." Gets me every time.

Imagine being such a homie that you get drawn and get a cameo/callout by one of your favorite KZfaqrs because you gifted a show to them. Kevin is incredible.

Sokka may not be a water bender, but he’s absolutely a back bender

Azula: *approaches Zuko* Zuko: why do I hear boss music

Ty lee: **stabs emily** Emily: SHES SO CUTE!!!

I've literally never seen any of your videos, but watching your reactions made me remember how I felt the first time I watched Avatar through.

I’ve been watching this show over and over again since I was a kid and no matter what I always cry when uncle Iroh sings leaves from the vine for his son

Can we all just appreciate Kevin? Like....he gave her the WHOLE series!!

IROH’S LITTLE SOLDIER BOY NEVER CAME MARCHING HOME ᴹʸ ˡᶦᵗᵗˡᵉ ʰᵉᵃʳᵗ.... IT HURTS

Story wise, that beauty about the series is that book 1 is a very good introduction, it is a lot of character building so the later books/seasons can be strong and cool.

Very first note of leaves from the vine I was already crying and I have seen that episode dozens of times

Emily: "i didnt whatch avatar" Literaly evryone: *"THAT'S ROUGH BUDDY"*

“Happy birthday, my son...” *laughter stops*

Leaves from the vine always hits the right spot 😭

Avatar is like a universal symbol of happiness and is adored by all family’s

Ty Lee: *crushes someone’s windpipe* Emily: *SHES SOOOOO CUTE*

What i learned during this video: That is a airsoft gun

Me and my mother are fans of avatar so me and my mom have 1 more thing in common! And this video was an emotional roller coaster because I just finished series today after much convincing from my mom ❤️❤️

Rest in peace Mako. We’ll remember you forever

Everybody gansta untill the tatoos start glowing.

When you lose your bisexual son “where is my bison?!”

My intro to Avatar was a cold day in February back in 2005 when the show first aired. I was very sick and had been home from school. I think I woke up for dinner and before going back to bed I caught the first two episodes as they aired. I remember the commercials for the show hyping it up for that week. However, I won’t lie to you, when I woke up the next morning I thought I dreamed it.

I still shed tears during that one episode even though I have seen it about 50 times by now, so you can imagine how messed up I was when I saw it for the first time xD

Sad fact: The person who voice acted Iroh died of cancer and the picture of Iroh's son is actually a representation of the voice actor when he was young

I still get emotional by only hearing the scene where zuko apologizes and starts crying to uncle iroh and then he hugs him

Avatar: The Last Airbender is considered as one of the best TV shows ever made, and for good reason. This epic animated series was created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, and it first aired on Nickelodeon in 2005. The series follows the journey of a young boy named Aang, who is the last surviving Airbender and the legendary Avatar. He is tasked with restoring balance to the world as he must master the four elements and stop the evil Fire Nation from taking over. This show is a masterpiece of storytelling as it touches on complex themes such as politics, love, war, morality, and spirituality in a way that resonates with audiences of all ages. The characters are richly developed, and they capture the audience's hearts, from the comedic duo of Sokka and Katara to the tragic villain Prince Zuko. Moreover, the show has some of the best animation and action sequences ever seen in a TV show. Every bending technique is unique and visually stunning, making every battle exciting and thrilling to watch. The show's score is also breathtaking, incorporating traditional Asian instruments and melodies, which immerse the audience in the world of Avatar. Overall, Avatar: The Last Airbender is more than just an animated TV show. It's a story that moves people, makes them laugh, cry, and feel something deeply profound. Its universal themes and meaningful messages have made it a timeless classic that will continue to be enjoyed for generations to come.

“My first girlfriend turned into the moon” “That’s rough buddy” That will always be the best line in the show

Avatar: Does literally anything slightly romantic Emily: *-UNHOLY SCREECHING-*

When Iroh wishes his son happy birthday and when Iroh and Zuko reunite are the moments ppl cried the most about

I love how moonshine animations was so silent while watching with her while she was a non stop chatterbox

*My thought before watching this video "She will be destroyed emotionally by Iroh story on Ba Sing Se" Aaaannnd she did

*two characters from Avatar kiss* Emily: OH MY GOD KSNDIDKSNFHFHUSKSKSK

ahh yes, the tears... that pretty much sums up everyones reaction while watching iroh's tale of bazingas. that scene hits haaaard

Did you notice in the episode The Tales Of Ba Sing Se the Tale of Iroh was dedicated to Mako. The reason is the Voice Actor of Iroh died in real life.

Ty Lee:Genocides an entire village Emirichu:SHE'S SO CUTE I LOVE HERR

Emily: *cries at The Tales of Ba Sing Se episode, drinks from mug to stop crying, proceeds to cry even more*

Avatar is like that one show that you can watch a billion times and still would be able to continue watching all the more. It is the one series most argue is the best ever made, and that is saying something!

i literary cried at the "leaves from the vine" scene and all i we did way hear it out of context, it was like a Pavlovian response

*Gets bullied on the internet for not watching avatar Zuko: That’s rough buddy

Emirichu's like that 6th grade kid that anytime a kiss scene comes in, instead of looking away, she just screams

that's rough, have to endure leaves on the vines while sick. You have a strong spirit

Saw I like 3 times not that anybody asked but when iroh was singing on his son's birthday felt a whole new feeling

Fun fact: They couldn’t get Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to voice The Boulder, so they got his friend Mick Foley instead.

Its fine everyone cries when iroh sings in that episode about his son

Iroh's scene is enough to make anyone cry

The leafs from the vine man it hit me in the feels fr

It gets even sadder when you realize it’s a memorial for his original voice actor.

Emily: Did Jet just DIE?! Sokka: U know, it was really unclear.

The Uncle Iroh Episode is even more heart breaking when you find out it was genuine tears from the VC

01:07 wow that guy is really committed to his bit, damn. And if he's not a voice actor already, he should consider being one.

Lets be honest, we all looked like Emmy after iroh sang

Leaves from the vine: *plays* Everybody: im a waterbender!

And just like that, thousands of relieved sighs from Emirichu fans could be heard.

I love rewatching these lol ❤

Ty Lee didn’t join the Kyoshi Warriors, she joined a prison gang.

The fact she cried at that one scene when Iroh began singing shows that shes human and defiantly not an anime character

Emily, let me tell you that I had not watched ATLA did last year... I too was in the watching ATLA late club lol. And the first thing I did after finishing ATLA and Korra, WAS WATCH THE TWO AGAIN LMAO!!! Currently rewatching the two again and now on Korra.

I think we all cried when Iroh sung to his dead son. It's just so emotional.

Emily - “ I haven’t watched avatar.” Me - That’s rough buddy

Iroh: *starts singing* Emi: *furiously drinks tea to keep from showing emotions*

Girl, its STILL in its prime. It literally ages like fine wine. Even at 32, i re-watch this and legend of korra at least twice a year.

I was constantly like "chill girl" but then also screaming and crying just from the audio.
