Avatar Kyoshi has become one of the most popular Avatars because of her secret power that isn't shared with any other Avatar.

One of the Kyoshi Warriors, Suki runs into Aang, Katara, and Sokka when the Avatar comes to Kyoshi Island to ride the elephant koi.

Avatar: The Last Airbender might have started by following Aang, but the young bender was far from the first Avatar to enter the bending world. Thanks to Aang’s connection to the spirit world ...

The "Avatar: The Last Airbender" live-action series quotes one of Avatar Kyoshi's lines from the original series. Netflix; Nickelodeon On Kyoshi Island, Aang and Katara study Avatar Kyoshi's past.

In the original episode, Zuko tracks Aang to Kyoshi Island and does battle with him in the village. Zuko and his soldiers don’t hold back and their fire bending causes massive damage.

After Aang’s run-in with Kyoshi in “Warriors,” the new Avatar is clearly conflicted about his responsibilities. Kyoshi instructed Aang to be merciless; to take no prisoners.

In the Netflix adaptation, Avatar Kyoshi is Aang’s first connection to that part of himself, and the meeting comes much earlier in the story.

Aang fights the Fire Nation in his own form, not as the formidable Avatar Kyoshi (though Aang does dress up as Kyoshi in Season 2's "Avatar Day"). Oh, there's also giant unagi in the animated series.
