Prince Zuko, from the Fire Nation, is leading a mission to capture the Avatar and gain re-admittance back to his kingdom. But they first need the Avatar, who has mysteriously disappeared. The main plot of the story gets underway when the Fire Nation grows too powerful and sets off on a campaign of world domination. The Avatar, a sort of Christ-/Buddha-like figure, has mastery over all elements and is the most powerful bender of all. The mastery of each of these is the term "bending," the ability to manipulate each element and use it for creative or destructive purposes. "Avatar: The Last Airbender," a fusion of Eastern philosophy, Hinduism and martial arts, is set in a far-off land (dare I say, a Middle-Earth clone?) where four tribes rule the world and the most gifted members of each tribe have mastery over the Four Greek Elements: Air, Earth, Fire, and Water. While I don't think today's kids may completely understand the overall significance of some of this show's philosophy, subtext and terms (how many 5-year-olds know what an "avatar" is?), they may not have to be versed in Eastern Thought to get everything. But "Avatar: The Last Airbender," what I presume is an attempt to add a little pseudo-Anime'-style animation to its lineup in order to catch stragglers from other cultures (and perhaps Nick-weary adults like myself), is a breath of fresh air for this once-tired soul. My opinion of both channels hasn't changed.
Then around 1999, I gave up on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network completely. Then, 10 years ago, Nick began to slide into idiocy and continues to do so as I write this.
I'll be turning 21 on the 12th of next month 13 years ago around this time at the age of 7, I remember that Nickelodeon had some of the best of children's programming on cable television. It's just a pity that shows like "Avatar: The Last Airbender" are such a rarity these days. Then about three months ago, on a complete whim, I bought the first two chapters of "Avatar: The Last Airbender" on DVD from Barnes & Noble Booksellers and, boy, was I blown away! This is one of the most humorous, fun, action-packed, and generally all-around entertaining cartoons I've seen in the longest time. The fact that it was airing on Nickelodeon was probably the reason I just kind of shook my head. When I first heard of "Avatar: The Last Airbender," I was more than a little skeptic.
