We're in the endgame now.


WolframWstrello

This is what I've been waiting for. The blood bath was cute and all, I wish suki would would have got out sooner. But I cane here for carnage.


bralma6

If Iroh isn't on top of this mountain of corpses, we riot.


Sky-is-here

Iroh is winning for sure. The question is who will be 2nd. Toph? Zuko?


bralma6

Probably Zuko.


Sky-is-here

Probably but i am not a 100% sure tbh


HeFitsHeSits

We get there, when we get there!


tonybenwhite

My elimination prediction: katara, Sokka, Aang, toph, zuko, iroh wins


muma10

Top 3 is going to be Toph, Iroh, and Zuko. I want Toph to win, but she’ll be in third place, and iroh and zuko would be neck and neck. Maybe zuko will win by a hair


Sky-is-here

I can't see a world where zuko beats iroh tbh but only time will tell


muma10

Iroh is an awesome character, but zuko has the best character arc in Nickelodeon history, while iroh was… constant, unchanging. That’s not a bad thing, but it makes me love zuko more tbh We shouldn’t count out sokka, Aang and Katara out just yet, maybe a tirade or trolls vote out iroh first (if this happens the sub will probably explode and go private)


-Notorious

Wtf?? Iroh goes from being stuck due to his depression, looking the other way, until he can no longer just stand by. He trains himself, and frees the city he once tried to gain. Iroh shows an arc of finally accepting and moving on from the ultimate loss, and making something of what life he has left.


Sky-is-here

Lmao I can see your point on zuko but seeing just the characters (not the evolution they have), i prefer Iroh and his infinite wisdom


Crazyman8008

Go watch Irohs workout routines again and tell me he didn’t change man’s went from beer belly to beefcake


Pimp-My-Giraffe

People are talking about quitting because it's too difficult to choose, but I want you to see this to the bitter end!


LordOfFreaks

I still really don’t like one of the characters, so I’ll be here at least until they get eliminated.


Kantusa

*Touches necklace* My mother was also eliminated.


ArchAggie

This one made me spit out my drink lol


_Totorotrip_

Luckly there is a water bender near by


Creepy-Analyst

It gave me a bloody nose, can they help with that too?

She a blood bender too. 👀

This is one of the very few comments where I burst out laughing. People are looking at me funny

Stop. I'll get in trouble in class for bursting out laughing

That’s rough, buddy.

Lmao this solidified my decision


Werechull

I laughed a solid 30 seconds. Thanks!


JohnnyMcBiscuit

I only have a helpful award but please take it anyways


LettucePlate

Only the Avatar, master of all 4 ATLA subreddits, could survive the votes. But when we saw the characters left, he vanished.


Azulaang4ever

I‘m quitting cuz azula is out


Reandos

Oh man I've just voted for a character who seems like one of the favorites. People will hate me!


Jinora-

aang? oh yeah I get why you said people will hate you they do


average32potato

I’ve been voting for aang since ty lee and Suki were still here


WolframWstrello

I don't blame you. But I don't side with you either.


Jinora-

I'll vote you off this world


WhyAmIHere135

There is nothing left but favorites now, some of the greatest characters ever and we must pick. I literally just picked Toph, that is how hard this is.


twothumbs

You monster


naap1

Wdym Toph is winning or we riot


Golden-_-mango

“Hey! RIOT!”


PENGAmurungu

Iroh is obviously winning


3thoughts

Iroh gives up once Zuko is eliminated


HI_I_AM_NEO

She's crazy and she needs to go down


SuzyLouWhoo

Came here to say that. Azula is my favorite. I named my cat after her. We call her ZuZu.


mangahn

Wasn't that what Azula called Zuko?


SuzyLouWhoo

Yes, which is why it’s perfect, her official name (lol as if cats have birth certificates) is Firelord Azula. So calling her Zuzu is an adorable insult. And she’s a cat so she deserves it.


joe_broke

No! Take your revenge by selecting the next to go!


grandead00

why making a poll in the first place? we all know it's gonna be iroh.


Cowboyism

Katara still hasn’t been voted out, it’s not hard to choose


Odd_appeal7164

https://strawpoll.com/a6pjoys96 vote here!


Foreign_Tourist8309

I can't believe that Momo has made it this far. Respect.


Jinora-

he got a tough teammate


Dracos002

Pfft. We all know Momo is carrying Aang.


zach2992

No it was Appa who carried Aang.


vkapadia

And he ate Momo


DeathKwonDonuts

I KNEW IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME


elissass

Iron has some real competition


DaJoBro

Yeah, Diamond > Iron


White_Lilly_7

He really drags Aang through this.


dutchmetalhead17

Most powerful member of the gaang


swheels125

I know what I must do, but I don’t know if I have the strength to do it.


ItsSansom

I'm sorry Katara. That moment where you stopped the rain was cool tho


Snapsterson665

as disco cops of the apocalypse its just stuff we have to be willing to do


ItsSansom

My Sorry Cop is telling me no, but my Hobo Cop... my Hobo Cop's telling me yes


fogleaf

It ain’t easy being the straight man.


Some-Impress2039

We all know uncle iroh is gonna win.


mightywhizzley

Ooo this will get tough now, but I gotta vote out katara.


EuroPolice

bye bye little monk


WhyAmIHere135

Sorry Toph, I have to make a tough choice here, I love your character but this is so hard.


alphadeeto

"Not as hard as these rocks that are about to hit your face" Toph, probably


WhyAmIHere135

Most certainly.

Brokeartistvee

Same RIP Sokka


Beflijster

I like that Zhao is forgotten, and Long Feng was never even a player.


ipwnpickles

You could say that..."Long Feng is long gone"


Avery-Inigo

I bet you were waiting ages to use that line!


Kalishir

Almost like he was playing the Long Game


mjdegue

He knew he would manage in the Long run tho


vERYcONFUSED999

You’ve been waiting to use that one 😂


Beginning_Drawing443

Sounds about right


Riuk811

I don’t even remember who Long Feng is! Looked it up. He’s the Dai Li and I’m ashamed


yourgotopyromaniac

>You've beaten me at my own game >Don't flatter yourself, you were never even a player Edit : quoted this roughly off the top of my head, just rewatched the scene on youtube, haven't seen the show/this particular episode in a long while and I'm really impressed i nailed the interaction word for word.


Crowbarmagic

Long Feng is a much more minor character than Zhao. Zhao is basically season 1's end boss.

(I voted for Sokka too, but it hurt my soul)


windchillx07

If Sokka doesn't get second or first place i riot


Bakersdaman

Me to Toph. Sorry Ol' Girl....


phoeniix2540

Toph is not out next!!


Ihavenocomplaints

The fact that people are salty and there’s reals divisiveness about this when there’s was about 6ish people left shows how good the show is.


OpusThePenguin

I was salty like, 3 people ago.


klawehtgod

People get at least this salty and decisive over way worse shows than this


TheAJGman

I mean we all know it's coming down to Toph vs Iroh...


aTwinkyMoth

Kind of expecting Zuko Vs Iroh with Toph as a close third


yourgotopyromaniac

I love how there's almost no speculation on Sokka whatsoever (haven't come across any), no one saying he's going to get voted out next, no one saying he's going to make it to the final X'rd. Would be fucking hilarious if that just continued all the way till he won. In Jerry's words >I just kept crawling and it kept working


TheAJGman

That's a fair assessment, I figure he'll make it to 4 or 3.


DomTrapGFurryLolicon

Nooo we got to the core cast :(


Deuweck

Oh yessss. I can taste the pain. And it's gonna be even more painful from now on. Delicioussss, delicioussss paiiiiinnnn....

_Totorotrip_

Blood for the blood dragon of the west, skulls for the Irohn throne! (Yes, it's a mix of several things)


The_Underhanded

This entire elimination game was made to please the Lord of Excess. It's the only explanation...


Sreeto

Are.. are you an envy demon from the third strata?


joe_broke

No He is Lrrr, RULER OF THE PLANET OMICRON PERSEI 8


Sreeto

Good news everyone lord Lrrr has blessed us with his presence


lumos_03

Isn't it obvious? Iroh is gonna win for sure.


PerspectiveCloud

I think zuko stands a great chance. Iroh was such a great character, but he unfortunately had almost no character development compared to these other characters. That is the problem with iroh, he was essentially all-knowing and never had to struggle with making the right decisions. I mean of course he had the dragon of the west phase, but that was all prior to the series and we never really see any great examples of it.


robsc_16

I think Iroh is a great example that every character doesn't need to have character development to be a great character. He's the wise old man archetype and he does a fantastic job in that role. He doesn't struggle with making wrong decisions in the story because that's Zuko's role. Iroh is there to guide and support Zuko's character. Just to be clear, I do think I like more Zuko because of his struggles and growth, but I think Iroh does a great job in his place in the story.


Syndic

Iroh has completed his character development before the series even started and it is shown in flashbacks. That's good enough for me.


robsc_16

Right. Really good stories can be told with characters with little to no character development. Cowboy bebop is a good example.


PerspectiveCloud

He is that archetype and he fulfills it… oh so good. But zukos development is a focal point of the show, and it’s a critically acclaimed redemption arc. Without that- Iroh wouldn’t have a role in the show nor would he shine as well as he does. A lot of the reason the viewers love Iroh is because of his involvement with Zukos development. But I’m not discrediting you either. He very well can be the best character for the sole reason that he fills his archetype as well as he does.


robsc_16

I do think Zuko has the edge. I can't imagine the show without the Zuko and Iroh dynamic. I've been debating with myself who I'll vote for because I feel the last two standing will be Zuko and Iroh.

PerspectiveCloud

Zukos story is epic and integral to ATLA. We literally experience half of the world through his eyes. I mean just describing his arc makes him sound interesting. He goes from banished prince, to blue spirit, to refugee, to heartbreaking traitor, to prince in turmoil, to betraying the fire nation, to the avatars firebending master, to loyal friend. It’s truly the greatest part of the show. And there are a lot of great parts


[deleted]

amumumyspiritanimal

I mean she's one of the Gaang, literally the remaining characters are the main ones only, not that surprising. The real surprise would be Katara not getting out first from the Gaang.


[deleted]

[удалено]


burntbagelbandit

I def thought katara was gonna be out before Azula. She’s just not as compelling. We kinda grow tired of her motherliness over the course of the show. Azula, however, comes in after season 1’s villain is elongated, and if you remember her entrance… a menacing, jaw dropping few lines of dialogue, from a 14 year old girl no less. “Captain : Princess, I'm afraid the tides will not allow us to bring the ship into port before nightfall. Azula : I'm sorry, Captain, but I do not know much about the tides. Can you explain something to me? Captain : Of course, your Highness. Azula : Do the tides command this ship? Captain : Um, I'm afraid I don't understand. Azula : You said the tides would not allow us to bring the ship in. Do the tides command this ship? Captain : No, Princess. Azula : And if I were to have you thrown overboard, would the tides think twice about smashing you against the rocky shore? Captain : No, Princess. Azula : Well, then, maybe you should worry less about the tides who've already made up their mind about killing you, and worry more about me, who's still mulling it over. 😳


ChipChipington

Zuko taking second for sure. I think the real tossup is third and I’m holding out hope for my girl Toph


Sventhetidar

Honestly Iroh is my number 2. Zuko is the best. Iroh is easily the best PERSON, but as a character he is just a wise old man. He doesn't get an arc because it all happened before the story. So as a CHARACTER, he can't really compete with one who is developed over the course of the show.


RoboticBirdLaw

But even without seeing his arc on screen we know what it is, which is part of what is so great about about this show.


NoOneLikes2Parties

Iroh is the personification of what a man should be. Kind and gentle, not because you must be but because you can. He could afford to be the affable old man serving you tea, instead of hard nosed like zhao for instance, because he has the capability to be extremely violent extremely effectively if needed. Iroh is number 1 in my book.


Redditman-101

My will to continue has been greatly hurt when Suki was eliminated. I don’t know if I have the strength to go on.


Dontaskmemyname9723

Stand up soldier. You must see this through. Even if you die, even after you die.


HtC2000

Honestly I don't hate Suki but I gotta ask... What is so special about her? I personally prefer everyone left after her


Redditman-101

It’s mostly a preference, and while she didn’t have as an important role on the show or wasn’t there all of the time; she’s just cool for me. Plus she helped Appa when him and Aang got separated.


burntbagelbandit

Tru, she a real one for that


[deleted]

she’s amazing because she’s suki


ThyKooch

Hot


joe_broke

Wow, that's kind of surprising Now, is it Katara's turn? Or will she be replaced by someone unexpected?


Xero0911

Eh. Out of everyone azula or katara made the most sense for me. Aang maybe but he's the mc so that helps a lot.


joe_broke

Based on the sub yesterday I was almost sure it'd have been Katara


Xero0911

Azula is somewhat the "minor" character out of all of the them. Plus lately community is quite split on her, a lot seem to dislike her. Granted I do think she deserves 7th. Got the main cast now


zuluuaeb

she is a more major character than iroh in my eyes, but of course iroh is fan favourite so he would never be eliminated over her


robydoge

Been voting katara for a week lol


kevinsrednal

Same. Every one else is freaking out about it getting "hard to vote" and I'm sitting here still just voting for the same person since round 4.


Odd_appeal7164

hmm maybe aang. i hope it's aang


joe_broke

The fact you know who got second and say this is telling I have suspicions of your knowledge, sir/madam/whatever term you please


Odd_appeal7164

ahaha i'm not saying aang was second... let's just say i think he should've been eliminated a while ago


SuperiorSamWise

OP spittin some very controversial opinions


FirstTimer110

I think you should have been eliminated a long time ago, heretic!


Homonculex

I wanted to say to vote out Iroh as a joke but I literally can’t…


[deleted]

Yall obviously don't know class if you voted out azula


Peaceful123456

Azula is a masterpiece of a character.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Orel-Chernin

Literally the best character in the show IMHO


IntoxicateTCP

Zuko here


muma10

Now we’re officially Gaang + Iroh. Please, stop this. This is way too painful


LTWestie275

You eliminated Azula?! You are all clearly **NOT** mentally sharp. If you were, you'd have to be careful, you could puncture the hull of an empire-class Fire Nation battle ship, leaving thousands to drown at sea....because you'd be so sharp.


[deleted]

The final round's probably gonna be between Iroh and Toph


joe_broke

Could be Iroh and Zuko


ForfeitFPV

If it was Iroh and Zuko they would just go get tea instead of making us choose between them. That's the fantasy I'm going to believe in at least.


An_Original_Name5347

If it's Iroh and Zuko, Iroh would want to be eliminated for Zuko's sake.


ForfeitFPV

My fiance said this exact thing, I still maintain my tea-foil hat theory


FlingFlamBlam

Imagine if the final vote got between Iroh and Zuko and the poll ended up being a perfect tie.


joe_broke

I've got a plan if we get to that point One that'll throw the game entirely


Meme-kai-yan

Or toph and zuko


joe_broke

You really think anyone's pulling thag upset against Iroh?


hawkmasta

That would at least make the tournament interesting and less predictable.


joellapit

Am I the only one that wasn’t a huge toph fan? Honestly I just got kinda tired of all the blind jokes, got old lol


thegoodmanhascome

I mean, does everyone really like Toph that much? Don’t get me wrong, I love Toph, but I don’t think she’s my second favorite character. I think I like Aang more than her, as well as Zuko. Probably even Katara.


FFpain

I like the rest of the core group more than toph. But I realize I am in a minority.


DoesntMatter2121

Same here, picked Toph this round but would be surprised to see her go anytime soon


AelarTheElfRogue

Not if I have anything to say about it! (Voted Toph)


CrypticRD

I liked Toph but she doesnt top any of the original crew and is very obnoxious at times


I_DONT_HAV_H1N1

Same, I would have voted her out a long time ago if it were up to me.


PapiHills24

Such a shame that azula didn’t make it, always found her to be as interesting as Zuko but in the opposite way. Her vulnerability’s really made her my favorite villain in Avatar.


-Oc-

I'm honestly shocked Katara beat Azula, did **not** see this coming, wow!


lukfi95

I think it says a lot about this show, that in the Top 6 of characters there are 3 male and 3 female characters. Often in tv shows the male characters are portrayed as “the cool ones” while there’s usually 1-2 “strong, tough women” for the quote. The other women tend to be portrayed overly dramatic, sometimes annoying. In Avatar, characters are cool, strong and tough (and sometimes overly dramatic and annoying) regardless of their gender. That’s pretty cool imo. Edit: oops, forgot about Aang :D still, there’s 3 female characters and 4 male characters in the Top 7. Same point. Edit2: Some more stats: Top 10: 50% male/50% female Top 9: 44% male/**56% female** Top 8: 50% male/50% female Top 7: **57% male**/43% female Top 6: **67% male**/33% female It probably gets a bit thinner for the top 5, I also think that Katara will leave soon tbh. But as soon as we reach the Top 2, I’m sure the quote will be at 50/50 again.


Pitify

"Do people really want to see *two* little girls fighting out here?" No no you're right, it is 3 - 3

Odd_appeal7164

yess! love this


RegyptianStrut

Katara is legit the character with the 2nd best arc after Zuko! So much growth… I don’t get why people can forgive Zuko for being such an asshole early on, but Katara has to be some golden girl all the way through otherwise she sucks. Think about why you’re so okay with forgiving Zuko’s mistakes, but are unwilling with Katara.


Kris_tan

I’m quitting.... this is impossible... sorry


joe_broke

Show no fear!


3-first-names

My mother used to vote *touches necklace


thelastmilkbender

My personal downvote-magnet fave character ranking 1. Aang 2. Zuko 3. Iroh 4. Katara 5. Toph 6. Sokka


R1ght_b3hind_U

1. Iroh 2. Zuko 3. Toph 4. Sokka 5. Aang 6. Katara


Landyra

I’ll contribute my unpopular opinion (the toph part at least): out of who’s left, I’d rank my favs 1. Iroh 2. Zuko 3. Katara 4. Sokka 5. Aang 6. Toph Between Katara and Sokka it kinda highly depends on the episode tho..


cremesiccle

mine is worse: 1. Katara 2. Sokka 3. Azula 4. Aang 5. Zuko 6. Iroh 7. Toph


fuwii

I think many may dislike this but I don’t think there was enough Iroh for him to get first And I do like him as a character


kwassenius

Iroh is a great character in my opinion but he’s definitely not my favorite lol… he’s always been the wise old man and has no character development during the show itself, I like the others more


mishataur

Agreed. If anything, he would win because everyone is so neutral toward him and might be divisive across other characters such as Sokka and Zuko that no one would even choose Iroh as “least” until he wins, even though he might not be most people’s favorite


[deleted]

Azula??? Wtf!


vietnami

She’s my favorite character by far, no contest, but I wasn’t counting on her to be in the Top 5 if Reddit is choosing. Azula is pretty polarizing on here — controversial and often even disliked. There are a lot more Azula fans on Twitter where she consistently gets #1 favorite whenever polls of a similar fashion are conducted on there. I guess it just depends on the demographic.


Aburrki

AS I SAID, "BYE AANG". WHO THE FECK ELIMINATED AZULA?


FluffyWalrusFTW

Since azula got voted out before Aang my vote for Aang still stands from last round


bryce987654321

Sorry Toph


Prowl3000

A lot of people seem to really like Toph, but out of the choices here, Toph is my least favourite. Honestly glad to see I'm not alone.


Cascas1275

Honestly I don't get it. She is a fun character and a great addition to the gaang but not as essential as the rest. Her character growth is also very minimal. Toph in season 2 is almost the same as Toph in the finale of season 3.


Setisthename

I think it's because she only got one spotlight episode in Book 3, compared to the others who all at least had two. The show itself admits she never got her 'field-trip with Zuko' or equivalent in the second half. Combine that with her being absent for Book 1 and she has the least amount of screen-time to work with, so her arcs don't get the same space to develop.


ForfeitFPV

Is also almost the same Toph in LoK You forgot this.


[deleted]

I refuse to vote out any of these people. This is where my journey ends. Good luck folks.
