We've been watching it, too! Slowly, though, since the library only lets us have one disk at a time. We're only twelve episodes in, but we like it very much. Sometimes the kids'-show tropes make me roll my eyes a little, but it's always brief and good-natured eye-rolling.

(However! I am frustrated that Aang needs to learn earthbending (among other things) and there is a tight timeline and they have spent WEEKS in the Earth Nation and yet they are not learning earthbending while they are there. Dude! You're just going to have to come back here later!)

(And yes, I know the original deal was that Katara and Aang were gonna go look for a waterbending teacher together and Katara has no need to learn earthbending. However, it seems weirdly out of character for her to not suggest that they do the efficient thing and learn some earthbending.)

(This may all be explained soon, I realize.)

I had similar thoughts as you when I realized that only Fire Nation voice actors were Asian. And I am flabbergasted that some people watch the show and don't realize the characters are Asian. Do they not realize the settings and clothes and martial arts and everything are Asian? Or do they think this is an Asia populated by white people? (EITHER WAY, I AM DISTURBED.)
