Why did it get this rating? 

This series was self-rated by Netflix. You can find out more about self-rating by streaming providers here.

Violence

This show is set amidst a war between the four nations. There are a number of scenes set during combat. Battle scenes encompass a mix of traditional weaponry, hand-to-hand and martial-arts combat, and most notably, the use of magical powers (element bending). 

Characters are set on fire, stabbed, punched, and are shown in physical pain. There is a fight scene that involves a large water dragon that charges at on scene characters. 

Although the combat scenes are fast-paced and frequent, the battles emphasise supernatural ability rather than bloody violence or physical injuries.
