Before they are able to leave, the gang are captured by a group of female warriors who live on the island. Aang is able to convince them to trust him, for Kyoshi was a past Avatar and he is the current Avatar. While there, Sokka is trained by the Kyoshi Warrior Suki who manages to change his sexist attitude, and Aang lets the village's reverence of him go to his head. Meanwhile, Zuko catches up to them and begins to burn the village until the group draws him off. • 105 "The King of Omashu" The next stop on the group's trip around the world is the Earth Kingdom city of Omashu. There, Aang shows Katara and Sokka the Omashu chute mail delivery system, which he and his friend Bumi (a Hindi word meaning 'Earth') used to ride for fun a hundred years ago. The trio gives the chutes a try but runs into trouble after it destroys a cabbage merchant's cart. Put in front of the crazy King of the city, the gang is given a feast. The King suspects that Aang is the Avatar and puts him through three deadly challenges to test his skills. After the last challenge, Aang is forced to figure out the King's name, and based on the nature of the challenges, he realizes that the King is his old friend Bumi. Bumi informs Aang of what his task as the current Avatar entails. • 106 "Imprisoned" Aang, Katara, and Sokka camp near a small Earth Kingdom town that is controlled by the Fire Nation, which bans Earthbending. Katara convinces a young Earthbender named Haru to save an old man with Earthbending, only to have Haru captured by the soldiers as the old man turns him in. Katara devises a plan to get herself arrested so Aang and Sokka can follow her to where Haru was taken and liberate him. While at the prison, a metal sea fortress that is impervious to Earthbending, Aang and Katara incite a rebellion with an inspiring speech and the realization that coal is susceptible to Earthbending. The imprisoned Earthbenders manage to liberate themselves and return to their occupied cities. [/hider] Finally caught up! Another fun batch of episodes that have only gotten better and better then the previous episodes. I really liked Episode 4 and the Sokka moments especially. The sexist stuff with him declaring himself better then women was cliche but overall handled pretty nicely. I really, really, REALLY liked Episode 5. I really enjoyed meeting the Earth-bending aspect of the show and the whole thing was just a lot of fun and solid world building, from the rollercoaster esque riding on top of the mail routes and the challenges Aang had to face against Bumi was just brilliant. Very, very funny. Episode 6 was okay as well but wasn't as great as the previous episode. Haru was cool, but the whole thing felt a bit by the numbers. The Fire Kingdom just appear to come across as a bunch of douchebags now. I'm looking forward to a sympathetic Firebender character, haha.
