Description
Wow... I was trying to think of a good title for this. I had "Avatar: Aang's..." and all I could think of was "Anguish, Anger, Angst..." and that is just too many Ang sounds.I went with just "Avatar: Anguish." My mom gave me the idea.
Yeah... so it's really only been 24 hours since I uploaded that "preview." I didn't think I would finish it... the movie "Inception" kinda got in the way.
I thought this scene needed more emotion. All we get is Aang crumpling to the floor and then the Avatar state. I mean, this is Gyatso who he just found. His mentor, guide, friend... and the closest thing he had to a father. I'd cry if it was me.
I also wanted a side-by-side comparison, so we can follow the path Aang's mind is taking as he realizes what is before him. What this means for his people.
Thanks for looking

I literally almost cried when I saw the actual episode. Cause' I know what it feels like to lose someone close to you.

Oooh, I like this. I agree, that scene would have made more of an impact if it had something more to it, and I really like your take on this. Well done. I especially love the side-by-side comparison, it's a very nice touch.
Aang needs a hug now

Thank you, I thought it needed a little extra to help show the emotion

Very well done. I love the side-by-side and the emotion was captured well. That scene in the series, even though it could have used a little more emotion, did almost make me cry. Anway, great job!
