I thought they already had a couple episodes out?

2 of them on itunes the actual show gets released on the 14th

Avatar isn't an anime.

This is pretty old. What did you do, freeze yourself for a hundred years?

I searched for a thread on it but saw none and I figured, why the hell not. also ha ha

when the title said 'new avatar(the anime)', I thought it meant there was a movie-avatar remake in anime form

thats what I was trying to avoid...

I'll be waiting until the series is over before I start it so I can watch it all at once.

I thought it meant the blue alien movie. Totally forgot about the other Avatar, all I know about it is they made a shitty movie about it.

Looks pretty cool.

I like the avatar shows because the storyline of the show, and since i saw the new episodes of this new avatar series, it's sticks to the original which is great.

[QUOTE=Dantai;35507430]You care a bit too much about the word anime its usage[/QUOTE] Well excuuuuuuse me princess. I'm just pointing out that people are wrong.
