A very interesting fact to know:
In 2007, Avatar: The Last Airbender won a Genesis Award for “Appa's Lost Days.” The Genesis Awards are hosted by the Humane Society of the United States, a “nonprofit organization that focuses on animal welfare and opposes animal-related cruelties of national scope” [via Humane Society].
- The stolen sandsailor Appa sneezed away is the one Toph found in the desert when she tripped over it.
- The Circus that kept Appa is the same where Ty lee worked before she joined Azula.
- Im emotionally drained. I cant explain it in words what i think and feel about this epsiode, but i know we feel the same. Its heartbreaking.
