Amazingly good and great and cool and....(ect)

Still holds up almost 20 years later. The animation is still so rich and impactful, and perfectly matched to the sound effects. Even the story and jokes hold up like a fine wine. It would make sense to reboot/remake this if it had aged poorly and needed a refresh, but why attempt to mimic perfection? The only acceptable remake I still hope for would be a 1:1 remake with even higher quality animation, but I don't think the industry has any intention of staying true to the original work with all these remakes.

**SPOILERS AHEAD** **Character Overview:** The characters are well fleshed out and developed, we get to see everyone change through the show. Aang is an amazing character, we see him struggling with being the avatar. While he is the most powerful bender, he is still a kid and that causes a lot of problems. There are plenty of moments where Aang just wants to make memories of normal childhood. We also get to see some other moments where he truly shines as the avatar.

Which over time builds his character and his desires, and some amazing struggle points for his character to overcome. His relationship with Katara also grounds his character a lot. This is a more human side of him, he has the struggles as we all do. Trying to find the right words and moments, and it is another way we get to see Aang grow and mature as a character. Katara becomes a fantastic waterbender throughout the show, it was incredible to see her grow from just a beginner to a master. This is probably my favorite portrayal of characters skill journey. I think another aspect I liked about her character is her confidence, as the show goes she gets more confident. I would even say too confident at times, and she does a find a balance later on. Like most teens she has difficulty controlling her emotions, and overall I…
