Have a looooooooooooooooong train ride ahead. I’m absolutely grabbing these off Anna’s archive.
Why do you need to study turbines? We’re not studying airplanes? Shouldn’t it be like thermodynamics or even just physics?
Could be fluid dynamics but that’s already water. Maybe they should be hydraulics and pneumatics or something
Fluid dynamics could apply to both air and water.
Fluid dynamics are evil.
Airbenders fly now?
As a mechanical engineer, I am the Avatar.
They are in the wrong order 😔
And if you flipped the top image you could have them in order + a fifth book for an extra joke layer
Maybe aerodynamics for boomerang?
Biochemistry for the blood bending.
Uh, Stryer’s 4th is very pretty and the name sounds like destroyer. Doesn’t make him a punchline though :(
I wonder if there is a show where they explore the impact of the bending or just magic in general. Basically Dr.stone but with bending/magic. I love seeing this stuff being used with scientific intent. The nation is basically steam punky.
Poseurs
I’ve read 3/4 of those, heat and mass transfer was evil.
Where’s Metal Working 101 and Basics of Electrophysics?
Easy. I don’t like anime.
I find the total style of the genre off-putting. Pokemon is as deep as I go and only because it had commercials before I could skip them.
So I will not read the manga and just say I don’t like the anime 🤗
Read the manga anyway, Gas Turbines are lit
(Avatar: the Last Airbender is not based off a manga)
It’s a style, not a genre, it’s also more than one style. Anime comes in every genre. There are many diverse anime films and series.
Of course some are made for children and others for adults. If all you have seen is children’s series you probably haven’t got any idea what anime has.
Sokka being done dirty 😆 where that Dynamics textbook at
That reading list might just make the series unwatchable.
