Review Detail of SpankMyBeef in Avatar The Last Airbender: Cold Paths

This story is great! Anyone looking for a good story that tries to stray from canon, then you’ll be delighted… Unfortunately that’s one of the few good points I really have to say about it. There are a lot of things I don’t like about it. Especially with how it ended. I thought a lot of elements in the story were great, like learning from the spirits themselves instead of the animals that learned from them, and including beings like the mother of faces. But, to me, it all just kind of amounted to nothing in the end? Everything Akira did from mastering the elements and innovating on them, to his romance just amounted to nothing in the end. Azula and Akira became just friends at the end, his bending was taken away for the final fight, and he died in the most anticlimactic way possible. This story builds up to nothing and leaves you with a bitter taste in your mouth from the way nothing in the end ever gets resolved in a remotely satisfying way and everything was meaningless. I enjoyed the journey I took to the end, I just wish the destination wasn’t so disappointing.
