When Aang Kills

Post image

Not saying I don’t love Aang btw. I do, I’m just mentioning something I noticed on another rewatch. That Vulture-Wasp definitely fell in two different pieces. It kinda felt like Aang’s Mace Windu v. Jango Fett moment, and I think it makes him feel more human, because he was enraged for a justifiable reason, his oldest living friend having just been kidnapped and missing, and another friend was being taken too. It was the heat of the moment. I don’t think it takes away from his character at all, I actually think it adds to it a lot. I did, however, want to point it out, because I feel like it’s easy to miss

The air nomads would’ve seen no difference between the two acts as they are both kills.

Well, maybe that's why they all died.

To be fair, Gyatso was surrounded by fire nation corpses when aang found him, so maybe there was an exception for massive attacks on the temples.

They are against killing on any grounds except their grounds. Cross that property sign and they'll cross you off the list.
