This is a truly amazing children's animated series that even adults can appreciate.

I really like how this show incorporates: martial arts disciplines (kata forms as a means to practice moving chi), warrior ideologies, learning to work with and manipulate ("bend") the four elements, mental discipline and psychic abilities, "drawing up" deity, reincarnation, and especially taking full inventory of your strengths and weaknesses in order to work to overcome your shortcomings to be a stronger, better, more compassionate person.

The majority of the themes in this show resonate with what we, in Scathach, are working on.



And Uncle Iroh rocks my socks!
