The wildest theory about the fish I've seen is that they had to give Yue part of their spirit because she would have been the next Avatar, if Aang hadn't been frozen. She was missing part of her soul

Momo :
It's also explained in the show that the fish chose such vulnerable forms to teach humans mercy. It's not a plot whole when it's clearly explained.

Droeuner :
It’s also important to remember that the avatar is reborn almost immediately, so after the first like decade or two the fire nation mostly assumed they had successfully ended the cycle

Idk :
They knew the pole that the avatar gets born in is cyclical too. The last one was born in the north so they knew the next avatar would be born in the South and then the Earth kingdom after that.

Nunu :
I forgot if this is actually canon or not but isn't it a thing where the avatar switches between North and South each water cycle

I mean, in fairness, Zhao looks like a stabby guy.

I NOTICED THAT TOO. WHY DO THEY WANT TO STAB THOSE FISHES.

PhysicsDragon :
the reason they went after the south is because the avatar was supposed to be born thete, the water avatar switch every time

irl, you can destroy an ecosystem by releasing the wrong pet turtle. The balance of nature IS fragile

The fire nation tried to get at the northern water tribe too if I'm not mistaken. They have the old uniforms from an attempted raid

Silentseph :
head canon Live Action adaptations are done by the Ember Island Theater troupe trying to over correct their last attempt

that rando on your comments :
It’s so weird, cause there’s only three fire nation people that use blades in the original show, and two of them are nonbenders (Idk if Piandao bends or not), so why would such an arrogant (1/2)

The water bending avatar also switches EACH YEAR due to the pole thingies that link to the spirit realm

The fish being so easy to kill is… the point… they gave up their immortality to transition to the physical world

Maggie 4455 :
But the thing here was that it wasn't common knowledge that they were the spirits. It was Zhao who found out about this in the library and then pursued to destroy them. So that is why it happened then

also I doubt azulon would have allowed such insane plan since the moon is important to the entire world

the avatar rotates between temples within the nations, the last was northern so the next water avatar would've been in the south, like Korra was.

EMDeG.store 🇵🇭 :
To be fair, the 1st time watching it I found it odd that he could kill the fish with fire while it was underwater. it wasn't even an explosion or sustained stream just a burst of fire.

It's not about having the power to kill the fish, it's about having the audacity

the LA stabbing vs bending is probably a budget choice. Stabing is much cheaper in fx than bending.
