This master swordsman was REALLY cool! And the sword he helped Sokka create might have been even cooler! :-)

Another episode showing being "fire nation" doesnt = bad. Not everyone agrees with their leaders on everything. The idea that if your blank you must be blank is a fallacy.

Hey Curtis. I promised you information on the Cultural influances of Ba Sing Se this epiosde Here they are straight from the Avatar Wiki Ba Sing Se Ba Sing Se, the capital of the Earth Kingdom is based on ancient Chinese capitals such as Beijing, as the creators were inspired by the idea of an isolated city. It also has significant influences from Qing Dynasty China. More often found in Ba Sing Se is the queue hairstyle. It can be worn by all men, with no social distinction. Such practice parallels the manchu queue, forced upon the Han population of China after 1644. All the Ba Sing Se costumes are inspired by Qing Dynasty dress. For example, the haiku girls wear headpieces reminiscent of those worn by Qing Dynasty court ladies. Also, the Earth King wears clothing similar to that of Qing Dynasty Emperors. The Earth King's attire is indicative of the style exhibited in a famous painting of Xianfeng Emperor. The Royal Palace is largely based on the Forbidden City. It has similar architecture, but the Earth Kingdom Royal Palace compound is circular, not square unlike the Forbidden City. The Lower Ring of Ba Sing Se is visually based on many towns and marketplaces in the Central Jiangxi Province. The Dai Li resemble and are named after the leader of the Chinese Nationalist Secret Police, General Dai Li of the Kuomintang. Their uniform is similar to that worn by the Qing Imperial Guards and it is also reminiscent of that worn by the scholar officials, or mandarins, of Qing China. The Dai Li wear conical-shaped hats similar to those worn by Qing mandarins. Their square shaped embroidery with the Earth Kingdom symbol resembles the Mandarin Square worn by Chinese Ming and Qing officials. The Outer Wall's design and scale is based on the Great Wall of China, except that the Outer Wall is a defense ring, unlike the Great Wall, which is a line of defense. The walls of Ba Sing Se are much taller than the actual Great Wall, as the creators wanted it to feel more massive. Just as the Great Wall is visible from outer space, the Great Walls of Ba Sing Se are always drawn onto maps of the Earth Kingdom. Palanquins, used by the Earth King, were also used in China by the upper classes. One particularly large and luxurious type of palanquin was reserved for the emperor. Similar to how the Dai Li had their secret base to brainwash political prisoners and potential troublemakers underneath Lake Laogai, in China, "Laogai" refers to the system of prison camps begun by Mao Zedong to exterminate or "reeducate" political prisoners under the Communist regime, which still operates today. As Usual I hope you enjoy.

Bonus fun fact: The voice actor of Sokka's master was the actor who played the T-1000 in Terminator 2.

One thing I've really enjoyed with this series is the attention to detail. Toph is blind so she's not always looking at whoever is talking and is looking in a random direction just listening. It's so easy in animation to forget this and have her look around like anyone else but they stay true to a blind persons characteristics.

Aang in that ridiculous armor is a jab at nickelodeon from the writers because they wanted Aang to have some sort of armor so they could make more toys out of it.

AceOfSerberit

Fun fact! Theres a youtube video made my a blacksmith where he makes replicas of fictional swords, and a while ago they made Sokks meteor sword. And they used actual meteor material to do it

Ali6B

Loved this episode for Sokka. It addressed the small 'issue' that he was not a strong fighter. Reminds me of when Toph said, "3 against 2.. oh sorry 2 and a half"

Chrome

huh nice little nod at the end there, Toph metalbends the meteorite into the nick splat symbol

I enjoy this background info at least, so I vote to keep it coming. Was there one about the fighting styles? Just thinking now, since Curtis is a fighter I'd be interested in seeing his perspective on the different fighting styles that the elements are based on.

i forget where i read it, i think it was trivia on the wiki page or something, but i think originally Sokka was never supposed to leave the south pole. it was supposed to be aang, katara and any others they came up in development. but the producers like sokkas voice actor so much they put him in the rest of the story. look at our boy now, all grown up with his own sword and everything

Miklar Sihn

I get that master, if you constantly get cocky assholes coming to you, acting like they already know everything, you really dont want to teach them. So when sokka comes and is infact unsure about how good or how knowledgeable he is, that seems like something you can work with.

Spaz Boys Comedy, I don't know if you noticed but you keep calling it water nation when it's actually water tribe.

Uncle Iroh with the Rocky 3 Clubber Lang workout make me wait balboa!

THE GOOSH!

Yea, once my miserable memory designates something, it’s hard for me to correct it. 😞

Tyler

I believe it was this swordmaster Piandao who taught Zuko his sweet sword skills.

Carson elliott

So far what you've seen on the white Lotus Is that iroh was upset when he lost his white Lotus piece in S1 and took Zuko on an excursion to get it back, and in S2 he used it to get Into that backroom to get them passage to ba sing se.

GoldArthur

One of my favorite episodes. Piandao is awesome!

Christian Brucken

I love the fact that this caries on for the rest of Sokka's life of him becoming a capable sword master. Are you going to possibly watch the sequel series Korra after this? Since it directly ties everything together into the future?.

Jacob Harmon

I don’t get why Zuko doesn’t see the error in his ways. I know he’s desperate to get his father’s good graces back and be the prince he was meant to be, but if you have two sides to choose from, why would you choose the ones who would throw you to the wolves to save their ass, rather than the one who would fight the wolves with you? He’s confused. I can’t imaging what his problems have to feel like.

THE GOOSH!

No, after this, JoJo has already been voted in next... You guys can certainly vote in Korra after that, though. 😊

Darkslifer#27

This is one of my favorite episodes tbh. Ive always loved sokka and his master and the swordsmanship (and training) too

Miasimon

Love seeing Iroh's transformation from "Dragon of the West" to "Gorilla of the West"

Freddy Jimenez

See Curtis you could be as ripped as Iroh
