What element would your favorite anime character bend?
PostPosted: Wed Jan 05, 2011 7:51 pm
So the most recent series I have been getting into is "Avatar: The Last Airbender" (amazing series, by the way, so worth watching!). And I was thinking how cool it would be to bend one of the four elements! And then I had this idea of what kind of element would my favorite anime characters be able to bend if they could? So, I decided to make a thread about it! In this thread, post the name of your favorite anime characters and what kind of bender you think they'd be and reason why (can be any reason, whether it's based on personality or what they can do). Would they wield Water, Earth, Fire, or Air? Or do you think your favorite character has what it takes to be The Avatar, master of all four?
I'll start us off!
Fullmetal Alchemist
Roy Mustang: Fire Bender. Well, he's the "Flame Alchemist" so this is kind of obvious. He'd make a perfect Fire Bender!
Edward Elric: Earth Bender. I notice what he tends to use his alchemy on, and this element would probably best fit him, in my opinion. And he'd be able to bend metal like Toph!
Alex Louis Armstrong: Earth Bender. This one is also pretty obvious, since he often uses his strength and alchemy on the ground. He'd be a super epic Earth Bender!
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles
Syaoran: Fire Bender. This seems like the perfect element for him, considering his sword creates flames, is determined, and his strong love for Sakura.
Princess Sakura: Water Bender. Because the feeling she understands most is the feeling of water (read volume 27). Also, some Water Benders have healing abilities, and I think if she were a Water Bender, she'd be the healing kind.
Rozen Maiden
Kanaria: Air Bender. She uses her violin to create gusts of wind and twisters, so I think she'd make a nice Air Bender.
Hinaichigo: Water Bender. Her power is to create strawberry vines. I chose water as her element because really skilled Water Benders (such as the ones in the swamp) can control vines because water is contained within them, so they can move it with their bending. And since Hina uses strawberry vines, this type of bending would be best suited for her.
Spirited Away
Haku: Water Bender. If you've seen the movie, the reason is pretty obvious, considering what type of spirit he is.
Cardcaptor Sakura
Syaoran Li: Fire Bender. I notice the element he uses the most is Lightning, and some Fire Benders know how to redirect it (and I think some can even create it). Plus I think this element matches his personality.
Sakura Kinomoto: Air Bender. Her very first Clow Card was "The Windy" and it's the card she uses the most, so I'm guessing she must like wind alot, so Air would be a perfect element for her!
I'll think of more later, but for now this is all I've got. YOUR TURN!

That's something that's just awesome.
