I give the show an easy 10/10, especially if you watch all the shows in order. S1 E2 - The Avatar Returns Febru24min TV-Y7 Prince Zuko, a young Firebender whose mission in life is to capture the Avatar, tracks Aang down to the Southern Water Tribe village where Katara and Sokka live. The character development and writing can match even some of the best television writers out there, it may even be able to stand toe-to-toe with the works of Joss Whedon. I wouldn't doubt that the next 3 seasons are already written. The show itself is also planned out, as minor questions formed in one episode may not be answered for another 10 some episodes later, so it's not just another Nick "story" show like Danny Phantom, all episodes are connected and well planned out. The bending styles all coincide with different styles of fighting and can be seen in every episode.

The research put into the story is amazing. It's good to know that children that watch this show may actually learn what it takes to have a good story. Because Aang is the Avatar, he has a connection with nature as well as animals. His destiny is to learn the art of the Avatar and defeat the Fire Lord of the Fire Nation. Not since Samauri Jack has an American show been able to pull off an anime style that works. Aang is the last Airbender and only known survivor of the Air Nomads. This show is what Nickelodeon needs to give it some respect.

The art and research put into this story matches the quality of the plot and character development.
