The Great Divide

I'm in the middle of watching Avatar: The Last Airbender since I have heard of its status as one of the greatest cartoons ever made, and it's anime-style animation. At first, I was a bit skeptical about watching The Great Divide, since I was aware that it is regarded as the show's worst episode, but after watching it, my feelings on the episode is pretty... mixed. Honestly, I can't think of a complete mix of feelings, as I have mostly positives, but not that many negatives. For example, Aang was still his heroic self, even if that infamous lie he told at the end of the episode wasn't necessarily justified, as he was trying his hardest to stop the tribes from arguing and bickering, even if it got him frustrated, something that I've normally haven't seen much in his character yet. I get that lying can be "the worst thing a human can do", according to my mum, but I personally don't agree, as that example with Aang's lie is that he just wanted the two factions to stop fighting, and to resolve their issues. This episode is mostly positives, very few negatives for me, as even though some of Aang and Katara's actions were a bit out of character, it was still a pretty good episode.

I was enjoying the whole thing (and I didn't find it's boring) until Aang said he made up that story. I really don't want to see Avatar lies. Why did they decide to write such things?

There is nothing in this episode that contributes to the plot or ever comes up again throughout the series. You can skip it.

Genuinely one of the worst episodes or might as well be the worst episode that has ever been a part of the avatar series. I mean, literally, the show literally pokes fun at it by Skipping it LOL. I understand how the episode does its take on familial conflict or conflicts between generations can be mistranslated and create a grudge on other people, but the take on here is super weak and the even the main cast feel their most flat yet.

Still better then the movie.
