Write a Recap »Following up a great episode is another great episode! hide show
The first part of this episode concentrated on the Avatar's invasion, and the second part of this two header concentrates on how Azula and the Fire Lord counters it. Although there isn't as much large scale fighting as the first episode, there's still some of the awesome fire, water, earth, and air bending that we have all grown to love over the course of this cartoon. The fight scene with Azula and her earth benders versus Aang and Toph is just a feast to the eyes. Even better though is when Zuko changes his allegiance. At first it seemed like he did it because he wasn't happy with himself, but he gave a great speech about it to his father. How he takes the Fire Lord's electrical attack and redirected it back at home just really sealed that part of the story really well.
In the second part, the eclipse takes place soon enough. While looking for Fire Lord Ozai, Aang, Toph and Sokka are distracted by Azula. Zuko confronts his father and reveals the truth about the recent events of Ba Sing Se, and plans to join the Avatar. hide show
This episode is definitely my favorite one. The fights were good, and I especially liked the way Zuko stood up to his father. I was surprised to see him fight alongside Azula in "The Crossroads of Destiny," especially after his brief connection with Katara. But I always knew there was more to Zuko. After all, he has done good things too, such as saving the boy named Lee, freeing Appa, tending to Iroh's injuries from Azula's lightning and a poisoned plantand helping Iroh with his tea shop in Ba Sing Se. And after watching the flashbacks from his past in "Zuko Alone," he seemed like a good kid to me, and I like how he was close to his mother and how he felt sorry for Iroh after he lost his son in battle. He also never got along with Azula in the past, and stated (in both his past and future) that "Azula always lies." Despite him helping Azula, I could tell he was still uncomfortable with his decision and regreted betraying his Uncle Iroh after all he had done for him. And so far in this season, he didn't seem the same. Despite having his father's respect, he remained unhappy, and was also greatly taken by surprise when he discovered his relation to Avatar Roku. He finally realizes who he truly is, and knows that the war must be stopped. After this episode, he forms an alliance with Aang and his friends.
A great episode with many twists and turns

It was an unbelievable episode. I love how the characters from seoson 1 and 2 help out in the invasion. Overall a fantastic episode because of the twists. The battle sequences for only average(Azula). The twists include Azula's mentioning of Suki and Zuko's relization that his mother is still alive. We also finally get to see Fire Lord Ozai's real firebending powers by generating lightning so quickly. It was a great episode but it did have a few problems. I would have liked to see more of Hakoda's battling skills. Also, a problem nobody seems to notice is Aang doesn't seem to have a problem killing the Fire Lord in this episode unlike in Sozin's Comet where that becomes a big plot of the episodes. Overall, one of the best in the entire series.
This was a fantasic ending for the season. I actually thought they were going to win. It really had me going. I was so happy when he went into Avatar state, but was shot down. Did not see that coming. Zuko got me real po - ed in that episode. But then made up for it in the end when went against his dad. I really hate Azula but she was pretty tough when fighting. I really hated those Dai Lee guys or who ever they were called. Especially the leader. It was an amazing movie or episode which ever you prefer.
