The fight between Sozin and Gyasto hit hard for me when I remembered they were both close friends with Roku.

"Can you imagine how Aang feel, when he find out that his entire culture was taken from him?" -Katara

I like the detail that the fire alone doesn’t kill anyone, they have to actually scorch someone to eliminate them. Brutal yet realistic

[falcongrey]

2:02 Your own element can be used against you because the air expands the fire and increases it. Against a powerful firebender, becoming engulfed in a tornado of air is a death sentence.

[linodior]

i actually cried during this part. thinking how the air nomads are people of peace and are pacifists who don't like confrontations fighting just to save their lives and their temple tugged heavily on my heart strings

[lalaI]

I used to think aang was to blame for the loss of the air nomads, but after watching this scene at his point he definitely would've died as well

[lapisinfernalis]

I love the detail that Sozin's bending sounds like a dragon, as he was the one who started hunting the dragons. In close-up shots you can also see that his eyes look like those of a dragon, when he bends fire with a lot of rage or hatred.

2:24 For those who haven't noticed, Gyatzo faced that entire platoon of firebenders and in his need to protect the children he sucked the air around him, killing those soldiers since they aren't moving.
2:33 Sozin also fell victim to that deadly technique, but he held his breath longer and counterattacked, making Gyatzo lose his stance and then cornered him.
The reason for the airbender's defeat is because his air shield did not put out the fire, it only held it back and the air expanded it around him because Sozin did not stop attacking, finally it was too much and the flames enveloped him like that airbender. which created a tornado around her only for Sozin to engulf her in fire.

They basically Order 66'ed all the airbenders. 😭

[TJPBataller]

Air Benders are monks. They don't really kill. That's why they were outmatched by already criminals fire benders. Also, this was the time of a comet. Aang was lucky.

Which is why Zaheer is a hero to all airbending fans. Air may have no variants like sand, metal, lava, blood and lightning but he showed that air alone is powerful enough when you reject pacifism. I once wished back in the original series that Aang should've met a surviving airbender that went mad.

[kolakkisikhobbies]

I think this is the brutally scene ever in avatar. That's why nickledeon don't made this episode in the cartoon 😢

[angelleae]

I like how sozin said in this live series that "on any other day you would win, but not today." I think people underestimate air cause their pacifists and they were essentially wiped out in the story line but sozin had to wait to ambush them and needed the help of the comet to ensure a win over them.

[syzorst]

I have to say, even though many people compare this to the infamous "order 66", this scene was way more brutal.

[denzelboado]

Now this is epic! Sozin is really an underrated character back then, we never saw him in action. Now he is one of my favorites.

[BroPaulSyrel]

Man that was so sad that the Airbenders are now killed by Sozin and his ruthless firebenders.

[bartolomeestebanmurillo]

This was a hard scene to watch. Evidently, the TV series will expand on many aspects that the animated TV show wasn't able to for obvious reasons. I know the animated TV show alluded to the sheer cruelty and brutality of the Fire Nation.

[jostpolc]

This scene is truly heartbreaking to watch and is also sinister and creepy, as we finally get to see the brutality, heartlessness, and fanaticism that shaped Fire Lord Sozin.

[haidenmurray]

I love how they show how strong the Airbenders are, especially Gyatso! Even though it was a dark scene, it makes airbending look badass

[justsomeguywithoutalove]

Them Air Masters were no jokes, one could take on ten soldiers, even when taken by surprise.
