3.0

these character designs were so infuriating because instead of just leaning into a new style, they had some characters (ex. azula and the fire sages) look SO close to the original cartoon. i understand they were going off the movie designs (horrible idea and i have no idea who cleared that, especially since the writing was remarkably in character for the cartoon and followed lore that was only in the cartoons???) but they could have at least had zuko have his little pony tail. it felt so unserious because of the art, and i found myself wishing they just chose to fully go manga- like with the character design and even how you read the panels. the fusion styles just ended up feeling very clunky in the end.

- I don't understand why they changed Zuko's uncle. He looks different. It bugged me.

- I was hoping for a bit more from this. I already knew a lot of the stuff in this book. I wanted to shed some more light on other things.

- I really like Zuko's inner struggle. He is such a complicated character, and he is one of my favorites.

- This really wasn't a must read for Airbender fans. I could have passed this up.
