how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score — the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.
Read from 25 comments — 12 said when.
The number holds — it is read from every comment. The shape is not settled: only 12 said when something happened, and below 20 the same evidence split in half draws two different pictures. Drawn faint for that reason.
Not enough people said when to name this shape. The line is what the evidence draws, not a finding.

- how sure we are — wider means fewer people described it
what people actually wrote
Grouped by where it was written, because a considered review and a reaction typed an hour after the credits are different things. Every quote links to its source.
“Seeing Lin sacrifice herself for Tenzin and his family is always such an emotional moment.”

“Also Lin losing her bending was just done so beautifully, the music and everything being so on-point... its such a heart-wrenching scene.”

“Lin is NOT really looking at Tenzin when she decides to sacrifice herself. She's looking at his family, she's looking at everything she could have had if things went different. And it is because of that, not just because they are the last airbenders in the world, that she is willing to sacrifice herself. And to me, it makes it such a more powerful moment.”
