Trivia[]
- This episode was split into 5 parts, and another separated episode due to the length of the plot, turning into a surpise two-parter. The reason was do to the plot o both episodes taking place the same timeframe and place.
- This is the first episode to feature Hikar bending the four elements in the same fight, taking inspiration from various points in the series to show his bending style:
- Chu-Gar Praying Mantis for Earthbending, taken from Toph, her two daughters, and Aang.
- Dancing Dragon for Firebending, taken from both Zuko and Aang.
- Traditional Airbending, taken from Tenzin, Aang, and even the unnamed airbender from the AtLA opening credits.
- Tonraq's brute style for waterbending.
- In addition to this, Hikar doesn't bend two elements simoultenously nor switches seamlessly in between, due to inexperience in that ability, this was done having one break panel between the first and last series of panels in which Hikar is bending an element.
- The fighting style of the Red Airbender is a mix of both Zaheer's agressive style and Aang/Tenzin's traditional style.
- The Rhynoki Pub was previously mentioned in previous episodes as a meeting point between the youngsters of Republic City. The building itself is the same as Kwong's Cuisine, which seemengly had a change of owners at some point in the 84 years between 170-254.
- The Site of both the building, it's inside, and its surroundings, was reimagined by Parker in Blender, using some of his own knowledge on architecture and urbanism due to him being a graduate of the field, or that he added changes such as: making the trolley line a subway line under the street, pedestrinizing said street, and tuning a lane into parallel parking.
- This is the first episode where Hikar's Team Avatar is finally and officially established, with Hikar, Bultina, Kensi, Shaila, Kosen and Nikumi being the official members, and Tao being a Plus-One.
