Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2

Season 2 Review

In S2, after a bittersweet victory saving the Northern Water Tribe from the invading Fire Nation, Avatar Aang, Katara and Sokka regroup and set off on a mission to convince the elusive Earth King to aid in their battle against fearsome Fire Lord Ozai.

Season Review

The masterpiece season: the Earth Kingdom arc, Toph’s introduction (the greatest earthbender alive, a blind girl who sees with her feet), Azula’s hunt, and the Ba Sing Se story, the show’s defining achievement. The brainwashing Dai Li, the Tales of Ba Sing Se (Iroh’s “Leaves from the vine”, the most devastating four minutes in animation), and the finale: Aang’s lightning death at Azula’s hands, the Avatar State severed, the Earth Kingdom fallen. The darkest season, ending at the story’s lowest point.
