I'm Just A Baka xD

Translated from the interviews in the back of the character book : )

Make Me Choose

At first it started as a heartwarming, funny anime that you could actually learn lessons to.

You thought, “Hey, this is a fun and happy anime, surely nothing will go wrong”

You loved it

They always made you laugh And worry And smile before you sleep

But you forgot one thing:

The main purpose of the anime that was introduced from the very beginning

It was a warning

And yet you still chose to continue

Because even if there were conflicts, they still managed to get through it

You thought they would be like this forever

Then they made you get back to reality

They were suppose to kill their teacher, you suddenly remembered

And realized

But by that time, it was already too late

You got too attached to the show

You can not turn back now, you have to see it through the end, even if you don’t want to

And so you did

And then the feels came

This anime has been ruining your life since the very beginning

They warned you, though.

“We are assassins, and our target is our teacher”

You should’ve known

You should’ve decided to turn back right then and there

But you didn’t

And you’re glad you didn’t

Because even though they broke your heart and soul and ruined your life

They made you happy And smile And laugh

My young assassins…You who are about to cut down a single life…Surely you know better than anyone the value of life…because you’ve studied…fretted…and really thought this through. You are what gave my life value. As I fostered you all…you fostered me. So please…here,now…reap me with your finest bloodlust. If I could help nurture these 28 souls as they move into the future…I would be so happy, I could die. It was a really…really fun year. From one traveler to another…a yell… for all of life!

Most Avatars are informed of their newfound destinies at the age of 16 to begin their training. Because of the approaching war Aang was told of his status at the age of 12. He had already mastered airbending, and in the span of a year he mastered the other three elements, the avatar state, and energybending. He also learned lightning redirection and seismic sense (a technique no previous Avatar had even encountered). In the span of a year.
