Plot Update 10 March 2021

A year has passed since Fire Lord Zuko ascended the throne, and it seems like trouble is brewing between the Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom once more. The Fire Lord and the Avatar began the Harmony Restoration Movement to restore the Fire Nation Colonies to their pre-war state by bringing any Fire Nation nationals back home, but for many of the citizens — of mixed Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom … Read more ›

I think she was because he's very furious at the fire nation and he probaly had mentall problems when his mom and dad were killed.

no offense to any female boardmembers, but girls, especially around the age of 14, will blow stuff way out of proportion when regarding emotions. on finding out that jet tried to kill the fire nation by also killing other people, katara was "heartbroken." and yes, katara does have feelings for Aang as well. thats just my opinion, of course. and yes, ive always been single, so dont even try that joke.
girls think with their feelings, guys think with their gut. or the phrase goes sumthing like that...
btw, can i just throw out a random thought that you're under 12 years old

Katara was pissed off that she was lead on - Jet was flirting with her - and that he would kill innocent lives, which in not her thing.
And Xia-di you'd better watch it, keep in mind that the two top admins are girls. And with an attitude like that, no wonder you're single.

*pondering last encounter with an angry woman*

...........no. Jet got off incredibly easy, if anything. I was honestly surprised we didn't see a Mortal Kombat style fatality performed >.> ..... maybe something Sub Zero-ish.

But yeah. He got off incredibly easy. There's an old phrase that someone actually took the time to write, and I have to agree with it whole-heartedly:

"Hell hath no wrath like a woman scorned."

He still tried to kill people and he was still leading her on in romance. Personally, I would have killed him. But hey I guess it's just that we girls actually care about inocent people dying.... I mean after all you boys get to destroy everything and leave the wemon to the healing, right? Healing of limbs, hearts and souls.

Sedna is absolutely right. As a girl (who has been led on and heartbroken) I can honestly say: Katara didn't give Jet what he deserved. Jet didn't care about her and that hurt her. He just wanted to advance his own plans. No one likes having their feelings toyed with especially if innocent people are going to get killed or something like that. So Katara just reacted.

I believe that all of what my fellow girlies (and Makoto ;) ) have said is true, or at least accurate. Being nearly of Katara's age I know the extreme moods us gals can get into. I agree with Saami and Makoto: Jet got off easy. In fact, he probably didn't get what he deserved. He pursued revenge on the Fire Nation while risking innocent's lives. I'd say that's worse than what the Fire Nation would have done to Jet's family in the first place...

*smacks*

What you apparrently hate about Katara is the fact that she is female. In other words, you are actually being rather sexist. So, you should probably explain what Katara did that was so over emotional.

Yeah, it's called puberty, pal. You start to like members of the opposite sex. Your feelings change because you become more vulnerable to what other people think of you. You lose the child-like innocence of simply being able to ignore things that people do to you, or hurt your feelings. And, she did fall in love with Jet, and him lying to her all that time AND willing to kill an entire city full of innocent people for his own personal grudge wasn't only completely heartless and immoral; but only one step short of literally stabbing her in the back.

PLUS he turned on Aang when he tried to stop him, so that lost even more points.

So no, he got off easy. And your personal like or dislike of Katara really doesn't lend any weight to your argument, it just shows bias.

....alright, one more time: your dislike of Katara does not constitute an argument. Constantly saying "Katara sucks" doesn't do anything to prove your point, if ANYTHING it hurts your argument.

And when you get older, you'll figure out why the people of the Fire Nation didn't just "rebel." Normal people can be manipulated to do almost ANYTHING if the person in charge is smart enough. You'd be surprised just how far fear alone would get a person . . .

Also, the city Jet was going to flood wasn't full of fire nation civilians, it was full of EARTH NATION civilians. Their fighters had already been beaten, these were just ordinary people and people who COULDN'T put up a fight if they wanted to.

oh ok and now i'll but katara sucks as my signature.


ok, u seem like an even worse form of me. For 1, ur english is much worse. i just use computer slang, but "ut" isn't a word. Secondly, ur even worse of a sexist.

Saying "Katara sucks and i hate her dumb feelings and personalities. and her girlyness and almost everything about her." is not very nice. and now, i personally would say that, jet got wut he deserved, maye not enough, maybe too much, it depends on ur perspective but the way katara was like "u lied to me" was the point i found to be overreacting.
and i apologize if wut i sed was offensive. i just meant that sumtimes sum people have heavy mood swings and in my personal experiences it has been more females then males

I don't think that katara over reacted. There were no facts being left out of the story that katara didn't know about. I believe that after she found out about Jets plans she connected the dots and everything snowballed into the situation you have now. The trick is....how will she respond if she sees him in Ba Sing Sa?

I guess we'll find out soon enough. From what I've read, there is an upcoming episode where Team Avatar (I really liked that name ;D ) meets up with Jet and his freedom fighters again at Ba Sing Se.

As for Katara's reaction, I thought it was right on. Jet was a liar and a murderer. In addition, if you watch the episode again, you'll see her reaction is really no different from Sokka's, she just possesses the power to do something about it, unlike her brother.

Jet is a really annoying character. I can see where he's going at but he doesnt care about losses. He's almost exactly like the fire nation except in a different direction.

Jet is like a little bug that is in dire need of being squished. I just want to HURT HIM!!!!! Anyhow, Katara did not overreact about Jet. She should have totally hurt him, but she didn't. Anyhow, Jet is stupid, I do not like Jet. (In case you had not gathered that from the rest of my post.)

I believe that she did over react but not because she's emotion and a girl or because she 14. Just look at how fast relationships are spawned in the show in general. She met jet, liked jet and dumped jet in one 30 minute episode..... in the show it had only been a few days.That a bit fast for anyone to fall in that much love to be hurt so bad. It's not just her relationship. Sokka falls in love with princessYue way to fast he hardly gets to spent any time at all with the her. Look how fast we are introduced to Zukos love interess, Jin, in "Tales of Ba Sing Se." The show has to go over the top with these emotions because they only have 30 min for an episode... so they have to rush relationships and they may have to make charater like kitara super pissed just to make a point.
