After finding important information concerning the war with the Fire Nation, Appa ends up kidnapped. Their journey leads to Ba Sing Se, the capital of the Earth Kingdom, where they uncover great internal government corruption. Meanwhile, due to their actions at the North Pole, Zuko and Iroh are declared enemies of the Fire Nation and desert their country, becoming fugitives in the Earth Kingdom. Pursuing both Zuko and Aang is Princess Azula, Zuko's younger sister. Throughout the season's airing, the show received much critical acclaim, with praises such as, "As a flat concept, Avatar: The Last Airbender is nothing special, but in execution, it is head and shoulders above other children's entertainment", and that "as a whole, the look of Avatar is consistently excellent."[4] Season 2 won multiple awards, including the "Best Character Animation in a Television Production" award from the 34th Annie Awards[3] and the "Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation" award from the 2007 Emmy Awards.[6] Between January 23, 2007 and September 11, 2007, Nickelodeon released five DVD sets for the season: four sets containing five episodes each, and a fifth DVD collection of all twenty episodes.[4] All DVDs were encoded in Region 1. In the United Kingdom, only the season boxset was released without being released in four volumes first. The boxset was released on July 20, 2009. ProductionThe season was produced by and aired on Nickelodeon, which is owned by Viacom. The season's executive producers and co-creators are Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, who worked alongside episode director and co-producer Aaron Ehasz.[5] Most of the individual episodes were directed by Ethan Spaulding, Lauren MacMullan and Giancarlo Volpe.[2] Episodes were written by a team of writers, which consisted of Aaron Ehasz, Elizabeth Welch Ehasz, Tim Hedrick, John O'Bryan; along with creators DiMartino and Konietzko.[2] The season's music was composed by "The Track Team", which consists of Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn, who were known to the show's creators because Zuckerman was Konietzko's roommate.[6] CastMost of the main characters from the first season remained the same: Zach Tyler Eisen voices Aang, Mae Whitman voices Katara, Jack DeSena voices Sokka,[2] Dee Bradley Baker voices both Appa and Momo, and Dante Basco voices Zuko.[7] However, several new characters appear: Jessie Flower voices Toph Beifong, Grey DeLisle voices Azula, Cricket Leigh voices Mai, Olivia Hack voices Ty Lee, and Clancy Brown voices Long Feng.[2] Mako Iwamatsu, who voiced Iroh, died from throat cancer after production was completed; he was replaced by Greg Baldwin for the following season and The Legend of Korra.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} ReceptionIn a review of the Volume 2 DVD Release for Book 2, Gabriel Powers from DVDActive.com described the series as one of the best children's series in recent times, making comparisons with Samurai Jack and Justice League, and complimented it for its depth and humour.[8] Powers also comments: {{Cquote|Without dumbing down its characters, plots, or humour, and without overtly taming-up the action or peril, Avatar manages to enthral children and adults, ages 4 to 56...There is a genuine classic feel to the series, which uses actual Asian culture and lore as its base. Like Star Wars, the creative forces behind the show have tapped into that basic, generation spanning storytelling that will live long after the series' youngest fans are old and bitter.[8]}}For the video and audio quality, Powers says "Season two generally looks better than the bulk of season one, but still has some issues" concerning image sharpness. Rotten Tomatoes gave it an 87% fresh rating in 2008.[9] Jamie S. Rich from DVD Talk says that "As a flat concept, Avatar the Last Airbender is nothing special, but in execution, it is head and shoulders above other children's entertainment", and that "as a whole, the look of Avatar is consistently excellent".[10] The show also received acclaim for its visual appeal. In the 34th Annie Awards, the show was nominated for and won the "Best Character Animation in a Television Production" award, for Jae-Myung Yu's animation in "The Blind Bandit", and the "Best Directing in an Animated Television Production" award, for the episode "The Drill".[3] In 2007, the show was nominated for "Outstanding Animated Program" in the 2007 Emmy Awards for the "City of Walls and Secrets" episode,[11] though it did not win.[12] However, the show did win the "Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation" award for Sang-Jin Kim's animation in the "Lake Laogai" episode.[12] Episodes{{see also|List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes}}|EpisodeNumber=21 |EpisodeNumber2=1 |Title=The Avatar State |Aux1 = DR Movie |WrittenBy= Aaron Ehasz Elizabeth Welch Ehasz Tim Hedrick John O'Bryan |DirectedBy= Giancarlo Volpe |OriginalAirDate={{Start date|2006|3|17}} |ProdCode=201 |ShortSummary=Aang and his friends rest at an Earth Kingdom outpost after their journey from the North Pole. They are to be escorted to Omashu, where Aang intends to find King Bumi to teach him earthbending. But General Fong, inspired by Aang's battle-determining actions during the Siege of the North, suggests that Aang defeat the Fire Lord and end the war immediately by triggering the Avatar State. In the meantime, Zuko and Iroh are visited by Zuko's sister, Azula, who has come bearing a message from the Fire Lord, requesting their return home. After many failed attempts, General Fong finally succeeds in triggering the Avatar State by faking Katara's death. Aang nearly destroys the base in anger but is then told by Avatar Roku that if he is killed in his Avatar State the Avatar Spirit will cease to exist, bringing to an end the cycle of reincarnation which preserves the Avatar as a force for balance in the world. The group decides to go to Omashu alone. Iroh reluctantly accompanies Zuko to Azula's ship where a Fire guard accidentally reveals that Azula's summons is a ruse in order to imprison Zuko and Iroh. Uncle and nephew manage to escape but are forced to become outcasts because of Iroh's efforts in saving of the Moon Spirit at the North Pole are viewed as a treachery by the Fire Nation, and Zuko's failure to capture the Avatar has made him a target as well. |LineColor=3FC351 }}{{Episode list/sublist|Avatar: The Last Airbender (season 2) |EpisodeNumber=22 |EpisodeNumber2=2 |Title=The Cave of Two Lovers |Aux1 = JM Animation |WrittenBy= Joshua Hamilton |DirectedBy= Lauren MacMullan |OriginalAirDate={{Start date|2006|3|24}} |ProdCode=202 |ShortSummary=While on the way to Omashu, Aang and the group meet a group of carefree traveling bards, who take them through a vast tunnel known as the Cave of Two Lovers.

They are reunited and attacked by a swamp monster who turns out to be a wise man from a tribe of swamp waterbenders who use the moisture inside the swamp's plants to manipulate the plants and hide their identities.

While at Xin Fu's earthbending tournament, Team Avatar witnesses a display of powerful earthbending by a young blind girl named Toph, who Aang recognizes as the girl from his vision in the spirit swamp. Toph uses her earthbending to sense her environment, perceiving the lay of the land around her and the subtlest movement of her adversaries, allowing her to launch effective counter-attacks; she therefore fits Bumi's advice that Aang's earhtbending instructor should be someone who "listens and waits before attacking". But Toph cannot become Aang's teacher due to her wealthy and overprotective parents, who attempt to keep her isolated from any danger and to form her into an obedient daughter who conforms to the expected social roles of a young woman of the Earth Kingdom aristocracy, despite the fact that Toph is by nature tough, sarcastic, and intentionally unrefined. Xin Fu kidnaps Aang and Toph thinking he was cheated. Toph reveals her power by defeating Fu's gang, but her parents become even more restrictive. She runs away from home and joins Aang. Toph's parents, believing Aang has kidnapped her, promise Xin Fu and Master Yu a chest of gold if they bring her back. |LineColor=3FC351 }}{{Episode list/sublist|Avatar: The Last Airbender (season 2) |EpisodeNumber=27 |EpisodeNumber2=7 |Title=Zuko Alone |Aux1 = JM Animation |WrittenBy= Elizabeth Welch Ehasz |DirectedBy= Lauren MacMullan |OriginalAirDate={{Start date|2006|5|12}} |ProdCode=207 |ShortSummary=After leaving his uncle, Zuko continues his journey to an Earth Kingdom town where a young boy named Lee befriends him.

The lack of sleep makes everyone irritable, and causes a quarrel between Katara and Toph.

Aang takes some of Appa's fur to act as a decoy to lure their pursuers away, but he is cornered by Azula.

Eleswhere, Zuko struggles with a similar dilemma as Iroh tries to teach him lightning-bending, an advanced form of firebending; Zuko's anger keeps him from having the cold precision lightning bending requires, and he is accutely aware it is a skill both his father and sister have mastered. Deciding on another approach, Iroh shares with Zuko his belief that wisdom comes from many sources, and he describes the relative strengths of each of the four elements, and the nations associated with them, and advises that understanding the other elements and other ways of life makes one whole. Iroh then teaches Zuko the art of redirecting lightning, a firebending technique he created himself by studying waterbenders. Aang finds Sokka in danger from a Moose-Lion and is able to save him by firmly standing his ground as an earthbender would. |LineColor=3FC351 }}{{Episode list/sublist|Avatar: The Last Airbender (season 2) |EpisodeNumber=30 |EpisodeNumber2=10 |Title=The Library |Aux1 = JM Animation |WrittenBy= John O'Bryan |DirectedBy= Giancarlo Volpe |OriginalAirDate={{Start date|2006|7|14}} |ProdCode=210 |ShortSummary= Sokka decides the group needs some intelligence to defeat the Fire Lord. At an oasis, the group encounters a professor who tells them about a hidden Spirit Library in the desert. The group travels deep into a massive and forbidding desert and eventually locate an entrance to the library, but Toph, who is unnerved by sand because it partially disrupts her ability to sense her surroundings with her bending, refuses to descend with the others and stays outside with Appa. Inside, Sokka discovers a crucial weakness to the Fire Nation that could end the war: the date of the upcoming solar eclipse which will temporarily prevent the bender of the Fire Nation from firebending for its duration. The spirit of the library, Wan Shi Tong, refuses to allow them to leave with the knowledge and sinks the library into the sand. Meanwhile, Appa is kidnapped by sandbenders when Toph, much closer to being truly blind than normal, is unable to stop them. The others escape from the library but are devastated by the loss of Appa. |LineColor=3FC351 }}{{Episode list/sublist|Avatar: The Last Airbender (season 2) |EpisodeNumber=31 |EpisodeNumber2=11 |Title=The Desert |Aux1 = DR Movie |WrittenBy= Tim Hedrick |DirectedBy= Lauren MacMullan |OriginalAirDate={{Start date|2006|7|14}} |ProdCode=211 |ShortSummary=The gang is stranded in the desert, without sufficient provisions to make the trek out again now that they no longer have Appa. Elsewhere, Iroh reveals a mysterious association with some form of secret society when he uses a White Lotus tile as an opening in a match of Pai Sho, his favorite game. The move functions as some sort of message to his opponent, who then helps protect Iroh and Zuko from a Fire Nation search. However, in the process, they are seen and recognized by the same mercenaries who are searching for Toph, and the bounty hunters plan to capture Iroh and Zuko, who are valuable prisoner in both the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation. After a long trek and much hardship in the desert, Aang tracks down the sandbenders who stole Appa, and learns that Appa was traded to a merchant and is likely in Ba Sing Se, the imposing capital city of the Earth Kingdom.

However, they soon discover that the protocols and bureaucracy of the royal court and aristocracy surrounding the Earth King keep them perpetually stalled from making contact with him. They are assigned a liaison, an uncomfortably cheerful young woman named Joo Dee, who indirectly makes it clear to them that any mention of the war is forbidden within the walls of the city, one of many disturbing rules they begin to encounter that are enforced by the Dai Li, the secret police of Ba Sing Se, and their corrupt leader, Long Feng, who appears to know something about Appa. Elsewhere, Jet repeatedly tries and fails to gather evidence that Zuko and Iroh are firebenders, and his allies in the Freedom Fighters begin to believe he is losing his steel. His last attempt, challenging Zuko to a sword fight, ends in his own arrest and being brainwashed by the Dai Li into believing there is no war in the city.

After being abducted, Appa is traded to circus run by Fire Nation citizens where the circus trainer whips, humiliates, and generally mistreats him, though the Sky Bison eventually escapes with the help of a small boy. He later unwillingly enters a fight with a Boarcupine, and wins but is badly wounded. By fortune, Suki and the Kyoshi warriors come across Appa and help him recover from his injuries, but the warriors are attacked when they encounter Azula and her team, still not far outside Ba Sing Se and attempting to infiltrate it. Appa is forced to flee at Suki's urging, lest he be hurt in the ensuing battle between Azula's forces and the Kyoshi Warriors. Completely dispirited, confused, and longing for Aang, Appa returns to his childhood home at the Eastern Air Temple, where he discovers a mysterious guru has taken residence in the ruins.

Toph is captured by Xin Fu and Master Yu, who attempt to transport her back to her parents; they lock her in an iron enclosure to negate her powerful earthbending, but the experience leads Toph to an epiphany when she realizes that there are tiny bits of earthen material within the metal, which she can use to manipulate it; Toph tears open the enclosure, creating a new form of earthbending in the process: metal bending. Long Feng is tricked into a deal with Azula where he will exchange Aang for assistance in regaining control of the Dai Li and consolidating their power over the Earth Kingdom throne, which will then act as a proxy government for the Fire Kingdom. At the air temple, Aang slowly unlocks all chakras but for the seventh and last, which requires giving up all earthly attachments, the most significant of which is now his deep affections for Katara. Almost at the point of true enlightenment, Aang sees a vision of impending danger for Katara and retreats from disattachment, instantly deciding to return to her and protect her at all costs, even though Guru Pathik warns that this may leave Aang's final chakra inaccessible, compromising his ability to safely and reliably access the Avatar State at all. |LineColor=3FC351 }}{{Episode list/sublist|Avatar: The Last Airbender (season 2) |EpisodeNumber=40 |EpisodeNumber2=20 |Title=The Crossroads of Destiny |Aux1 = JM Animation |WrittenBy= Aaron Ehasz |DirectedBy= Michael Dante DiMartino |OriginalAirDate={{Start date|2006|12|1}} |ProdCode=220 |ShortSummary= With Long Feng released, Zuko prepares to capture the Avatar. Before he can do so, Azula takes control of the Dai Li (and hence Ba Sing Se), explaining that they admire her brutal discipline. She has Zuko imprisoned, whereupon he meets Katara for the first time outside of his attempts to capture Aang, and the two discover they share a lot in common. When Aang, aided by Iroh, attempts to free Katara, Zuko is told by his uncle that he must carefully consider the path that his next actions will set him upon, hoping that the prince will embrace his innate inner light and abandon the brutality his father has tried to imprint upon him. To Iroh's dismay, Zuko instead chooses to help Azula attack the Avatar. In the battle that follows, Aang realizes that he must let go of Katara in order fulfill his destiny, and meditates into the Avatar state, but Azula hits him with lightning while in the Avatar State, striking him in exactly the location of the Chakra the Guru had cautioned him about, and putting the Avatar near the brink of death. Launching into an offensive, Iroh delays Azula, Zuko, and the Dai Li long enough to allow Katara to escape along with the gravely injured Aang, and then surrenders, being taken prisoner as a traitor to the Fire Nation. Katara uses a vial of spirit water earlier given to her from the pool of the spirits after the Siege of the North in order to save Aang as the team, with a deposed Earth King Kuei in tow, flees from Ba Sing Se, now in the hands of the Fire Nation after a century of resistance. |LineColor=3FC351 }} }} DVD releasesNickelodeon began releasing DVDs for Book 2 on January 23, 2007.[13] The first four DVD releases contain one disc that consisted of five episodes each.[14] The final DVD was the "Complete Book 2 Box Set", which contains all of the episodes in the season on four discs, and packaged with a special features disc.[4] All of the DVD sets for Book 2 were released with Region 1 encoding, meaning that they can only play on North American DVD players.
