Toph's instructing abilities come into question when Aang cannot seem to overcome a block that keeps him from earthbending.

Diminutive of blando used affectionately or mockingly to mean someone lacks toughness or willpower. The diminutive suffix -ito softens the word on the surface but in this context sharpens the insult.
No seas tan blandito, que tampoco ha pasado nada grave.Don't be such a pushover, nothing that serious even happened.
