7. Appa And Momo's Personalities

Appa and Momo are as important members of the group as any of the humans.

There would have been no plausible way for our gang to have succeeded had they not been able to hop on Appa's back and fly away. To not give him a personality would be a discredit to his character.

It's easy to want to turn Appa into the generic animal sidekick that Disney loves to cart out. What's so refreshing about Appa is that he's docile and laid back. An ideal day for him would be to lay in the sun while having food brought to him. That is not to say he doesn't have a temper: if you dare cross him or one of his friends, he will stomp on you.

Momo, on the other hand, is a completely different story. Though equally food-obsessed as Appa, Momo will use whatever means possible to get to said food. He pops up in places he shouldn't be, take things that he shouldn't take, and causes general mischieve. His chemistry with Sokka brings a much-needed comedy relief to the show, which keeps the dark subject matter from sullying the upbeat tone.
