Avatar: The Last Airbender was incredibly popular when it was first released in 2005 and the show managed to cultivate a dedicated following. Many have engaged with the story of Aang as they attempt to master Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth to restore balance, and the lasting success of Avatar was shown when it broke Netflix records. This popularity looks set to continue as fans still discuss the program. Due to its following, many fans still make content about the cartoon and one fan has managed to combine the opening of the show with another famous cartoon.
The Avatar series originally ran for three seasons but it has given fans plenty of content to meme and recreate. One of the most popular elements to tweak is the opening sequence. Many fans have edited and recreated the opening sequence of Avatar but few have managed to animate Pokemon into the introduction to the show. However, an animator called Kay has done this and achieved fantastic results that are pleasing fans.
Kay uploaded a video to Twitter that explains that the animator first had the idea for the opening sequence ten years ago and after a lot of work it is finally done. The video opens with the water sequence and has Squirtle illustrate the element, this is followed by Sandshrew for Earth, Charmander for Fire, and Pidgey for Wind. These are fantastic representations of the elements as they are typically the early base Pokemon that players use for these elements. Many fans are appreciating and sharing the artistic talent that is on display, as well as the thoughtful Pokemon choice that features in this reworked Avatar: The Last Airbender sequence.
The post has already achieved over 140,000 likes on Twitter and is growing every hour. It seems that the Netflix acquisition of the program has boosted an already dedicated fan base and with that in mind, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for the series. Netflix has already confirmed plans for a live-action Avatar series but it will be difficult to capture the spirit of the original series and make a compelling case for the recreation.
Avatar: The Last Airbender is available now on Netflix.
