azurajae: marauders4evr: element-of-change: anoia: element-of-change: earthchakra: best earthbender in the world: toph uses earthbending to counter powerful magic used by a spirit from another dimension I firmly believe this is the GREATEST and most extensive display of Earthbending we have ever witnessed. Depending how you see this scene, Toph is either resisting the interdimensional pull of a vortex Wan Shi Tong opened to transport this MASSIVE building or she is SINGLE-HANDEDLY holding the entire thing up from one of its SMALLEST TURRETS Can you even fathom? Literally no greater amount of Earth has ever been manipulated so solidly by an Earthbender on screen. Toph is holding the ENTIRE EDIFICE SECURELY IN PLACE WHILE ONLY TOUCHING THE TINIEST TIP OF IT. WHAT A POWERHOUSE!!!! and that was with her not knowing how to properly ground herself in sand um so also…I just realized how long she holds this thing in place???? not only is it long enough for Katara to escape Wan Shi Tong and play hide and seek with him but also Sokka has enough time to run all the way back to the planetarium and chECK EVERY SINGLE DATE IN THE SEVERAL MONTHS BETWEEN THEN AND SOZIN’S COMET!?!?!?!?! That’s like at least 60 or so days…and they give this little cutscene montage to show you how long it takes… Toph is just up there effectively supporting the weight of a goddamn city???? from a tiny pillar of solid rock that she created in a sea of sand…FOR LIKE 20 MAYBE 30 MIN???? what OP bullshit is this…please recognize the Original Beifong like damn largest amount of any element bent at once, no powerups necessary, and she holds that shit for half an hour? But nobody’s talking about the worst part. Even after all of this, she still feels like a failure because she couldn’t stop the sandbenders from taking Appa. She had to keep holding onto this building to keep it from falling straight into another dimension. And after Aang got out and Toph tried to explain what had happened, he lashed out at her I mean it’s understandable that he was upset but still. Nobody thanked Toph for doing this. If anything, she left this scene feeling like a complete failure. Fricken, dang Toph. -- source link
