Even outside of the Ursa stuff, a major insecurity Katara struggles with is that her father left during wartime to take care of her older brother, essentially she had to take on the role of his parent. It was not out of any disregard for his children on his part, which they both acknowledge, but the emotional pain and resentment this caused is still made explicitly clear to the audience. They meet each other again in the 3rd season and attempt to work through their baggage together.

In the backflashes to Zukos past it's shown that in his family are some very toxic vibes at work. (surprise?)
SPOILER: Zukos father Ozai is very dismissive and cold. It's implied that his grandfather (the old firelord) demands from Ozai to kill his (underaged) son. This is averted by plot points that lead to Zukos mother leaving her children.

The fire lord and other fire nation characters are manipulative and mentally/emotionally abusive both explicitly and in subtext. Throughout her entire time on screen Azula is almost always emotionally and mentally manipulating those around her. S2E14 (and other episodes that take place in Ba Sing Se) has explicit gaslighting/psychological manipulation and brainwashing, especially towards the end of the episode.

Appa is treated horribly by several characters throughout an entire episode. He is stolen, tied up, sold, beaten, starved, threatened with flames, attacked by other animals. It's a very sad episode, and is hard to watch, and it doesn't really end happily.
Appa is reunited with Aang a few episodes later.

Subverted? I think? I'm not so sure.
A persistent bully tries to lash out and even burn our main character in 3x2 but fails miserably because he's just a regular kid and our main character is so much more athletically capable than him so he just dodges him the entire time. The main character doesn't seem very shaken up by it at all and the bully ultimately gets out completely scot-free by the end so... Honestly Idk--

Additionally, in season 2 episode 10, there is an entire building that sinks beneath the sand with multiple characters trapped inside it. Most escape but two are left inside & implied buried forever.

Sort of. In season 1 episode 20 Aang visits Koh, the face stealer. A huge centipede bodied spirit with multiple stolen faces he switches between. Outside, Aang encounters a monkey without a face.
In season 3 episode 8, we see bloodbending in action which distorts/twists the bodies of unwilling victims. One of the most unsettling and intense scenes in the series.

Two notable instances.

In Season 1: Aang is captured and held in a military stronghold briefly. A villain threatens to keep him in imprisoned in perpetuity. He is rescued pretty quickly.

Zuko goes out on a mountain during a storm hoping for lightning to strike him so he can try to bend it. He'd probably not mind failing

Zuko has a few breakdowns. The most major of which he goes on top of a mountain top during a lightning storm to “practice” lightning bending. He overcomes them.
SPOILER: Azula has a major breakdown at the end of the series where she becomes unstable, hallucinates her dead mother, and chops off part of her hair. She battles the heroes in this state and loses. She’s last shown crying in defeat.

Not dysphoria proper, but in the Ember Island Play episode, Aang's actor....is an actress, which is shown to piss Aang off, moreso when Toph makes a joke about it. ("At least I'm not a flying bald lady!")

Sort of. When Princess Yue was born, she was “basically asleep”, her eyes were closed and she wasn’t crying, and she was essentially stillborn and none of the healers could save her. They then brought her to a Spirit Oasis and the Moon Spirit brought her to life. She was stillborn at first, but is okay in the end.

Sokka trains with the Kyoshi warriors, a group of warriors who are all women, who make wearing their uniform a requirement for training. The leader convinces him that he should be proud to wear it, but he is then immediately teased for wearing it by a different character waking by.

In the episode The Serpent's Pass" (Book 2 Chpt 12), the female character Smellerbee is mistakenly identified as male, and takes offense to it. This leads many to believe she is MTF.

In this version, not the netflix live action, Oma and Shu are a heterosexual couple. Only in the remake are they both female.
Because my comment wasn't clear enough: OMA AMD SHU ARE A HETEROSEXUAL COUPLE IN THE ATLA CARTOON, WHICH THIS IS ABOUT. ONLY ON THE NETFLIX LIVE ACTION REMAKE ARE THEY A LESBIAN COUPLE.

There are no black people in the show. It's all based on Asian cultures, so it's safe to assume everyone is based on various Asian races. There is one darker skinned man, but he's just fine.

In the beach episode there's a brief focus on Zuko's shirtless body. Ty Lee gets more attention from guys at the beach as she's viewed as the most attractive girl present. However, none of these scenes feel blatantly objectifying.

Not in the show proper, but during a voice actor panel (near the end), Azula's voice actress makes a quick joke about it, much to the horror of Zuko's voice actor.

A teenage girl sneaks into a teenage boy's tent at night; he is waiting for her in a mildly suggestive pose. Sex is implied, but kids would probably miss it. A teenage couple cuddles on the couch; again, sex is implied in way that kids would probably miss. Multiple instances of kissing. Multiple instances of a character being clearly attracted to another character (getting flustered, blushing, staring, flirting.) Some cleavage shots & cheesecakey swimsuits.

In a flashback showing how Zuko got his scar, Zuko is crying because he doesn’t want to fight his father, and Ozai calls him “weak” among other cruel terms. All other times where male characters cry (such as Aang) they’re comforted by their friends.

No cars in the show. A cabbage cart is smashed multiple times, meant to be humorous, and less funny, several airships are crashed in the four part finale. Also, there's at least one boat crash in episode 2.

In Season 1 Episode 6, which takes place on a ship, an antagonist is thrown overboard despite protesting that he can't swim. He is not rescued and it can be assumed that he drowned. The comment below by DouglasCarpenterFamily contains heavy spoilers for the season 1 finale, more than is necessary & I advise you skip it if you care about plot spoilers. The essential information is that another antagonist is likely drowned in the season 1 finale. Not graphic.

There is a very small amount of animated wounds shown throughout the show, but they are not graphic and aren't drawn in a bloody way, but rather with a pink-ish color. For reference, as someone who is bad with blood and gore myself, these didn't affect me at all.
One of the main characters, zuko, does have a burn scar on his face throughout the show.
