Civil War - Part 1

I really liked this episode, especially in comparison to the premiere. What did the rest of you think?

At first I wasn't sold on Aang not being a great father, but now I really like the idea. It's a nice reminder that he's not perfect, and it makes sense to me that he would become fixated on preserving his culture over making sure all his children felt equally loved. And it was nice to see an acknowledgement that people can grow up in the same circumstances but remember them differently, and that our memories of the past aren't objective.

I wish we could have seen more of Jinora, though -- I feel a little teased that we got so much great stuff with her last week that still isn't explained, and then she was on screen this week just to explain that Ikki is missing. I don't see how they could have fit her into the episode, really, but I'm still sad we didn't get more.
