* AdaptationalBadass:
** Aang is able to fly without his glider in this show, an ability that he never acquired in the original series and would explicitly require him to detach himself spiritually from earthly attachments on that canon.
** On top of being less of a ButtMonkey, Sokka puts up more of a fight when trying to fight Zuko, though he still loses the encounter.
** As their numbers consist of more teenagers and adults than as shown in the animated series, the residents of Wolf Cove of the Southern Water Tribe put up more resistance to Zuko's forces when they attack.
* AdaptationWimp: Katara is capable of water bending here, but starts off unable to do more than create ripples in a small pool of water until Aang gives her some advice. Only then is she able to levitate a sphere of water like in the original animated series.

* AdaptationDistillation: The cartoon [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheWaterbendingScroll had Katara steal a scroll with waterbending diagrams from a crew of pirates]], who later served as antagonistic figures during the episode in question. Here, Katara is simply given the scroll in question by Gran-Gran when she and Sokka first set off after Aang, Katara's mother having secretly left it in her care before her murder.
* BatmanGambit: The first episode has a pair of Earth Kingdom spies infiltrate the Fire Nation capital city and steal a scroll detailing supposed Fire Nation war plans. One of the spies escapes with the scroll, the other is captured and bought before Fire Lord Sozin, who reveals he wanted the scroll's contents to be leaked in order to direct the rest of the world's attention towards the Earth Kingdom, thereby allowing the Fire Nation to more easily carry out its genocide of the Air Nomads.



* ElementalPowers: As the teaser shows, characters in the setting can control the elements. Aang is seen [[BlowYouAway airbending]] and Zuko [[PlayingWithFire firebending]].

The show is set in a world where beings known as benders can [[ElementalPowers manipulate]] the elements of [[NaturalElements water, fire, earth, and air]]. A powerful being called the Avatar traditionally maintains balance between the four {{Elemental Nation}}s, the Air Nomads, the Fire Nation, the Water Tribes, and the Earth Kingdom.

But the task is not easy, as disgraced Fire Nation prince Zuko (Creator/DallasLiu) is on their tail, accompanied by his uncle Iroh (Creator/PaulSunHyungLee), intending to capture Aang and regain favor with his father, Fire Lord Ozai (Creator/DanielDaeKim).
