Line 22:
** This same episode has the "fruit tart" [[Double Entendre]]. The first time it's mentioned, it's used to send the servants away...The second time Zuko is depressed and Mai suggests they order a fruit tart to cheer him up.
*** The second time she asked for a whole tray of fruit tarts, take that as you will.
** The first of the implied offscreen sex occurs when, after Zuko has returned to the Fire Nation, Azula makes some kind of coy, offhanded comment about how [[Did You Just Have Sex?|Mai "has been in a]] ''[[Did You Just Have Sex?|strangely]]'' [[Did You Just Have Sex?|good mood lately."]]. Uh-huh.
** Zuko and Mai's relationship in general. They're a lot more physical than any of the other couples depicted on the show, always kissing, spooning on the couch, holding hands, cuddling... their final scene together involves Mai helping Zuko get dressed, followed by [http://piandao.org/screencaps/ep61/ep61-1149.png a kiss] that's quite a bit deeper than any of the others that happen onscreen.
* Also in "Nightmares and Daydreams," Aang's last dream sequence:
Line 86:
'''Aang:''' Y-yeah... when I was in there...
'''Sokka:''' [[A Date with Rosie Palms|I don't even want to know.]] }}
** Meng calls Katara a "Floozy," which is slang for [[Really Gets Around|promiscuous girl.]]
* The series as a whole is able to dodge around the raw violence and death of a war by having a lot of offscreen destruction happening, but several scenes involve tanks being outright crushed or blown apart or hurled into water. Since they're tanks, the implied crew deaths can be glossed over. Later on, a few tanks develop crews that prove to be very good at bailing right before their vehicles are destroyed. There's also other scenes of offscreen death, such as when Hakoda leaps into a bunker, and what sounds suspiciously like a blade slicing through flesh can be heard, followed by explosions, or when grenades are tossed into bunkers and the crewmen are shown fleeing with the grenades going off right behind them. No bodies are shown, and the shot cuts away immediately after the explosion, but its pretty clear what happened.
** There's actually a bit of [[Fridge Brilliance]] in a lot of the battle scenes regarding mook deaths. If someone is disarmed, frozen to a wall, drenched in slime/mud/ice/whatever, or otherwise incapacitated so that they are not shown trying to retaliate, you can take it as shorthand that they're dead. Note in "The Day of Black Sun," Sokka and Hakoda are shown chopping off people's spears or taking them out of their hands. The weapon's previous owner then often disappears from the shot. They are clearly no longer part of the battle.
*** As this troper's first post, I wanted to point out two cases where they didn't-In the Great Divide, the guide breaks both his arms after a nasty collision with a rockwall. Also, in the episode where they seek the Earth Kingdom escort, the general shows Aang a procession of wounded soldiers (with crutches, slings, body and head bandages), and states that they are "the lucky ones"
* Iroh [[You Need to Get Laid|advises Zuko to get a girlfriend at least twice.]] He also does this in the movie, in which case the linked implications are a little clearer, whereas in the cartoon it could possibly be explained as Iroh just looking out for Zuko's long-term happiness.
Line 119:
* [[Freud Was Right|"I'd rather eat fireballs than nuts."]]
* When the Gaang are stripped down for river wading in "The Cave of Two Lovers," Katara's little sarong is riding VERY low. There's a shot from behind which could only be described as sensual. Need we mention that there's no plot reason for them to be in a river at all?
* In ''Sokka's Master'', Toph admits to picking her toes twice; once for cleaning, and once more for the "sweet picking sensation," indicating she might have a bit of a foot fetish.
** Well, feet are her main sensory organ she trusts more than any other. Of course she would like giving them special attention.
* In ''The Ember Island Players'' the actress playing Katara cries a lot, is over-dramatic, and makes a lot of preachy speeches about hope. However, in the scene showing when they first meet King Bumi, it really does sound like she's orgasming as she gets enclosed by the rock candy crystals, rather than crying.
* In "The Boiling Rock: Part 1," a female guard catches Zuko (disguised as a male guard) loitering in the female prisoners' block, seemingly standing watch for a buddy. The female guard silently glances at Suki's cell before demanding Zuko let her check to see what was going on inside. Yup. That's right. Avatar snuck in a bit about prison rape. Combine that with Suki's casually hostile reaction to a disguised Sokka sneaking into her cell and you realize ''this isn't the first time something like this has happened to Suki''.
** Well... She ''was'' Azula's favorite prisoner.
* In The Beach Azula outright calls Ty Lee a tease.
* [http://ded0c0.tumblr.com/post/24607777320/atla-annotated-li-and-lo-imperial-concubines Here's] a good Tumblr post. (tl;dr Li and Lo are ''concubines'').
