If you have an Amazon Prime subscription, you can watch Avatar: The Last Airbender for free on Amazon Instant Video. Mega n00b, I tasked Emily with watching the first five episodes of season one of Avatar: 'The Boy in the Iceberg' through 'The King of Omashu.' Join us! It tells the story of an epic war fought by element-'bending' humans, a group of children who must save the planet, and some bizarrely cute hybrid animals. So, I was surprised in college to really get into the Nickelodeon animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender, which borrows heavily from anime. Pokémon? I watched the first season or two of the anime, but the video games were always first in my heart. I never really got into anime in the way that a lot of other geeky kids did.
