Avatar: The Last Airbender

Wooooooo!!! I just finished watching the entire Avatar: The Last Airbender anime. And I give it 5 stars!!! Yes, it's a great anime to watch. This is one of the very few and rare anime/cartoon series which is both entertaining and also educational. In every episode, there is always a concept/philosophy/moral value which is introduced by one of the character. You learn some great values while being entertain by a good cartoon.

Generally, the anime revolved around a world which is divided into four great nations, namely the Earth, Fire, Air & Water Kingdom. In each of these kingdoms, there are people who can manipulate the element which signifies their kingdom. Those who can manipulate fire are called Firebenders, while the people who can manipulate earth are called Earthbenders, the same applies to the airbenders and waterbenders. There is one who is gifted and will be able to master all four elements, hence he/she is called the Avatar.
These four nations used to live in harmony with each other until the Fire Lord decided that he wanted to conquer the entire world. Each element can draw extra power from certain sources. For example, the waterbenders are most powerful during a full moon as they can draw power from the moon which itself can control the water, by raising & lowering the tides. The former Fire Lord Sozin used the period when a comet passed by earth to launch a massive attack against the other nations. The comet which came so close to earth produced so much heat that it gave the Fire Lord and his firebenders so much power until they were able to defeat most of the nation, causing an imbalance towards the power of the elements. The comet was later named Sozin's Comet. Back then Avatar Roku was Sozin's bestfriend and due to his love towards the friendship, he did not stop Sozin in the beginning, which also let to his own death when Sozin left Avatar Roku during a volcano eruption.

The Fire Nation dominated the other nations for 100 years. Then it is left to Aang, a young monk who was destined to be the new Avatar to stop the new Fire Lord Ozai who was planning to annihilate the remainder of the other nations when the Sozin's Comet returns.
The story talks about Aang's journey around the world to learn and master the other elements, water, earth & fire before he faced the Fire Lord Ozai. During his journey, he met many friends who later join his battle. They were Katara, Sokka, Toph, Zuko, Suki, General Iroh, King Bumi, etc.

I truly love this anime series due to the educational properties which come with it. The Masters who taught Aang the elements, the Guru which taught him to control the Seven Chakra, General Iroh who was trying to help his nephew Prince Zuko to find his trueself, all gave very meaningful philosophies/concepts within the episodes which all of us can learn and practise.

Nice show, really worth watching!!! For those who are interested, you can watch it here> (http://www.watch-avatar-online.com/)... Enjoy!!!
