Bloodbending scenes — requested by anon
This episode was so flipping dark btw; I didn’t think they would go there, but oh my god.
Hama is a BAMF, no two ways about it. Her skills were so finely-honed as to be able to take Waterbending to levels that were apparently previously-untouched. While the results & applications of this level of skill raise a lot of ethical questions, there’s no denying that it rivals Toph’s introduction of Metalbending in terms of innovation & mastery of skill.
I think her story is also an interesting study on some of the effects of oppression & genocide that are usually not really discussed.
^^ Yes yes yes, all this commentary. This episode is one of my favorites of the entire series. So much awesome, so little time to appreciate it all.
These scenes were so intense, I wish Katara was able to use blood bending more to fight but I know she was fearful that power and of having that much control over a human life and the technique itself seemed complicated. But it just seemed it could have been more handy when they were fighting.
