Azula is a straight menace. She strolled in after beating the Kyoshi warriors, overthrew the city and took over their military, eliminated the other leaders, manipulated Zuko, didn't hesitate and let the "Protagonist powers up for several minutes" trope happen, AND she ended up on top while the heroes ended this season with a major loss. That girl knows how to manipulate people. "You were never even a player". Absolutely fantastic character.

[@nastyytee]

yessss the azula appreciation is everything 😩

[@prestocatronium]

The Dai Li betraying long feng after like 2 weeks with azula was a huge writing misstep for me, they could've spent like 5 more minutes on azula setting up plans and taking him down from the inside and made this moment so much cooler

[@danpham333]

@@prestocatronium Agreed. I hope they change that in the live action. Building up her manipulative tactics nice and slowly instead of in like 2 episodes will only make her so much more of a menace. They should have that possibility since episodes are an hour instead of 30 min.

[@venrakdrake]

How did it hit his back? He was facing her wasnt he?

[@artistfloor9]

⁠@@venrakdrake Azula was originally standing next to Zuko in front of all the Dai Li agents. When Aang encased himself in the crystal, she moved to the side. She knew he’d be focused on all the people in front of him and it would be too late before he realized where she was.

[@auren4048]

Despite the fact that I've re-watched this show many times, I still can't help myself feeling disappointed at Zuko every single time. Now imagine how Iroh actually felt here. Still feel bad for Zuko too though. He endured a tough life.

[@meganhutcheson5867]

I think everyone feels that.

[@skull1161]

it makes sense to me, at this point the only thing Zuko had renounced was his desire to hunt the avatar and keep fighting constantly in anger against a kid he doesn't even really know but now Zuko has a chance to easily regain his honor if he just fights alongside Azula one more time, so it makes perfect sense that at this point he would opt to regain his honor it doesn't stop the disappointment but its kind of predictable if you think about how long we have left in the show

[@soulunbound4882]

he didn’t feel anything cause it’s an animated character and they just wrote it like that

[@skull1161]

@@soulunbound4882 people who say what you say don't realize they are just displaying a low intelligence by not being able to take material and be imaginative with it. basic creativity is one of the first signs of intelligence yes it was written like that, good writing allows the viewer to reflect on that writing and develop their own thinking or hypothesis

[@jny5179]

Not for me. I feel like he had to go through all that to become the person he is at the end of the show. After having the life he always wanted and seeing it was not for him, he finally realises who he is

[@ardynizunia9709]

I think Guru Patik didn't mean Aang should forget or stop loving Katara. He meant he shouldn't be dependent on anything for his personal fulfillment and happiness. He can love people, but he can't be a controlled avatar if he lost himself to emotions when these attachments break. So love is ok as a bonus, but you can't be dependent on such attachments for you to function as a person. You have to be 100% functional all on your own. For example here, saving Katara isn't a problem, but being so emotionally attached that you run to save her instead of staying calm, opening the last chakra quickly and THEN going to save her, that is a bad decision driven by emotional attachment. THAT is the kind of attachment the Guru wanted Aang to get rid of, the kind that makes you make bad decisions and become unbalanced. I mean, it literally would've just taken 10 more seconds to get it done and then save her in a much more competent and powerful state.

[@lexzeyfercronus]

Agreed,Korra did it yet she was still very capable of loving,Aang was just not mature enough to make the decision.

[@ardynizunia9709]

@@lexzeyfercronus Also would've helped if Guru Patik was a bit more specific for Aang lol. When Aang was questioning why he should abandon Katara the Guru didn't clarify anything. But that is probably part of the chakras huh? Like, you have to do it YOURSELF and come to the correct conclusions and emotions YOURSELF. So that's probably why the Guru left it vague.

[@manulopez4697]

No, Guru Pathik literally means to stop loving Katara. Stop having attachments to the world. Ironically in the 4 part series final Avatar Yangchen told him the complete opposite.

[@AJ-nw5su]

This finale was basically 'The Empire Strikes Back' of Avatar... Also I love that y'all drop 4 episodes a week!

[@Greatcelestialkaligo]

Nah thats too much

​@@GreatcelestialkaligoWhat is?

[@jackmanalope]

@@GreatcelestialkaligoI can see what he means. Season 1 ends with the classic good guys defeat the evil empire and save the day but the fights not over. This episode, Aang’s training does follow the story of Luke’s down to making the choice to save his friends over mastering his special power. The heroes lose, and it seems like the evil empire is that much more inevitable, raising the stakes for the third installment.

[@Greatcelestialkaligo]

@@jackmanalope no if you could read and understand you'd see to much is refers to the episode count the commenter said, saying its too much to The Empire Strikes Back makes no sense 4 eps a week is to many and the time you enjoy the show a shorter time.

[@melhiott7977]

[@RedKincaid]

Wow omg

[@IamnotJohnFord]

It's no surprise Zuko turned back to the Fire Nation. He's an abused child. It's very common for the abused to cling to or go back to abusive relationships. And, that short lived "new" happy Zuko was just Zuko switching from what he thought he should be for his father to what he thought he should be for his uncle. It didn't last because it was just another mask. He threw away one mask and put on another. People question whether Aang was dead or just severely injured. He was dead. There are a couple of levels of medical death. Clinical death is where your heart and/or breathing stops. You might still have time to resuscitate someone (CPR and ACLS) as your brain is still living on oxygen and nutrients already in your system. But, if nothing is done you move on to biological death. That is brain death. There is no coming back from brain death. ☠️

[@happilyevernever4289]

Yup the first time I saw Zuko turn into a sweet lil Tea shop helper, it felt so fake that i thought he's just trying his best to please his uncle. Like he was trying to suppress his conflicted feelings.

[@islaythejabberwokky]

Even him getting severely ill after making the decision to free Appa isn't all that unrealistic; I've known abuse survivors who genuinely have extreme physical reactions to things that would have, in the past, gotten them punished. It's exaggerated for storytelling effect, but that's a real thing PTSD can do. Zuko had been conditioned from a very young age that betraying his father and his nation is the most unforgivable thing he could do; he was publicly maimed and humiliated and banished from his homeland just for disrespecting a general and questioning a military decision, imagine what would be done to him if they found out he had made a deliberate move to give the "enemy" the upper hand, especially when his direct orders and last chance at "redemption" was to bring down said enemy. I used to think it was weird that he got so sick after that moment, but it honestly makes a lot of sense as to why he relapsed as hard as he did. Things might have been different if he had more time to recover.

[@kapilavastuvasin]

Zuko is a years long addict ( drug of choice- redeeming honour) and finally - FINALLY letting the one family member who loves him (his uncle), clear his head and show him how he isnt chasing his destiny or redeeming his honour, he is just being a foolish tool of his egomaniac dad and sister, throwing his life away for nothing. He's only been sober for a few weeks, when Azula just shows up and dumps a truckload of his drug of choice at his feet. he relapsed. As he should, like 99.999% people would.

[@baxiz2992]

Loving Maddie's reactions, what a great addition to the group

[@creativeartivity]

One thing the show does really well (among others) is showing the dependency that victims of abuse have on their abuser. You see this play out in real life so many times too, and many times people will just be like "well why don't they leave", but it's a lot more complicated than that.

[@remo27]

Yeah Zuko isn't quite ready to give up on his 'family' yet, which is understandable, given both his age and having so many unresolved issues not only with Sis and Dad but within himself.

[@rtk-ok1yp]

As a kid I hated Azula but now I just appreciate a good villain. Kinda love her now ngl lol.

Cant ever underestimate the goat😏

[@lightningg252]

I think it's crazy that all this wouldn't have happened if the gang stuck around to see the Kyoshi Warriors before leaving instead of just confidently waving them through. Also, I believe "happy" Zuko was a mask. He came to the realization that he would in all likelyhood never have the destiny he wanted, his life ambition was cut short and not on his terms. Instead of wallowing, he just decided to make the most of the situation, smile and pretend to be happy for Iroh and himself until it becomes genuine happiness. But Azula dangled that carrot before he had a chance to fully close that chapter in his life.

[@queensaharaice7376]

It never acured to me Zuko could be masking! That's intresting

[@abclookmypee]

best explanation ive heard in a long time thank you

[@OmarO_721]

I love how Iroh and Azula both represent Zuko’s shoulder angel and demon respectively. This was also symbolized in Zuko’s nightmare in the previous episode, where Iroh was the Red Dragon (good) and Azula being the Blue Dragon (bad)

[@muhammadnazrin3390]

Unpopular opinion, but I think the Guru meant everything he said. If the teaching is based on Buddha's path to enlightenment he literally did abandon his wife and child, so it stands to reason that as Aang's quest to attain enlightenment/complete mastery over the Avatar state he needs to do the same(at the very least in the Guru's mind). Spoiler: The same way a certain someone lost his attachment/tether to the world when he lost his beloved and thus obtaining enlightenment and access to the ultimate form of airbending

[@skull1161]

then how does it work for other avatars? we clearly see avatars that have mastered the avatar state for example, Roku, he mastered the avatar state and also has a wife and had a child spoilers for ATLA below a theme you see a lot in ATLA is that masters of their craft can have differing opinions even though their skill is exceptional a good example is the difference between Iroh and Jeong Jeong. When Jeong Jeong talks about firebending it almost sounds as if he hates it, he says that it only brings destruction, that is likely because he became a master in such an evil nation like the fire nation. His opinion of firebending is tainted because he grew up and trained under the premise of war. But Iroh does not have the same opinion of firebending, and that is because he went to see the sun warriors, when Aang and Zuko meet the sun warriors they explain that fire is life which is very different from Jeong Jeong's view of firebending. What I'm trying to say is that you can be an impressive and wise master and still be wrong about something. The Guru can be wrong in the same way Jeong Jeong is wrong. Because how can people like Kyoshi and Roku possibly have spouses if they had mastered the avatar state?

[@muhammadnazrin3390]

@@skull1161 that is why I put in brackets (at least that was what guru phatik thought) I'm not saying he's right or wrong. I'm just saying he meant what he said rather than the fandom saying he explained poorly. Second of, I always thought of the Avatar state, the way the other Avatars use it is equivalent to the Hulk, a goal/targeted outcome is set, but it's an automatic reaction where the past Avatars knowledge/strength is facilitated by R(iyjyk) and the Avatar just turns it off and on rather than the Avatars having full and complete control over the state. Of course this is just my interpretation of it and is in no way canon. However, I do believe the guru said what he meant to say, (as misguided as he possibly was), rather than the fandom saying oh he meant something else and Aang just didn't get it.

[@lexzeyfercronus]

I think the phrasing is irrelevant,Aang dosnt want to be the avatar,thats a fact and its all that matters,so no matter how clear or suggarcoated the message is,he would rather avoid taking the final step to fullfill his role,ateast at this point,in comparison to _another_ avatar that would do *anything* to fullfill her role as an avatar.

[@SomeYouTubeTraveler]

Unpopular opinion: Buddhists can be scumbags too. "Enlightenment" at the expense of your loved ones is the ultimate betrayal. It's the peak of self-worship. Iroh was 100% correct when he said that perfection and power are overrated.

[@acemstudio]

@@skull1161 Yangchen says "Many great and wise Air Nomads have detached themselves and achieved spiritual enlightenment, but the Avatar can never do it, because your sole duty is to the world. Here is my wisdom for you. Selfless duty calls you to sacrifice your own spiritual needs and do whatever it takes to protect the world." I think this is the great dilemma of the Avatar. As a SPIRIT, Raava can be detached and look down on humanity. But in merging with a human being, she no longer can be detached. The Avatar will NEVER be able to be fully impartial, because they're human. And human beings do not run on logic. But emotion. Avatar Szeto is a great showcase of this, as he only focused on the Fire Nation. Yangchen had to pick up his slack and balance the nations out, but neglected the spirits, which is ironic given that she's an Airbender. Kuruk had to pick up HER slack and battle many dark spirits, to the point of losing his wife to one, and getting himself killed in his 30s. Kyoshi's great regret was the dai li, and arguably, living as long as she did via using Earthbending to bend the molecules in bones to regenerate. If she had died sooner, or maybe even LATER, Roku wouldn't have had to deal with the dilemma of killing his best friend. Not killing Sozin, caused the Air Nomads to be wiped out. Aang had to take on the responsibility of ending a 100 year war. In perspective, Aang gave Korra a relatively peaceful world. She kind of caused a lot of her own problems, and solved those problems. However, Korra made one huge, grave error. Letting her uncle get too close, and take away her past lives. The next Avatar, will probably be focused on getting them back, as energy cannot be destroyed, only passed on. And it just doesn't make sense to get rid of all that knowledge the past lives have.

[@roarmbee7045]

Aang leaving his training to save Katara reminds me of Luke leaving his training to save his friends

[@Aang_L._Jackson]

Azula is a legit psychopath

[@thiagohayashi9936]

Just a humble observation: People always say "good thing Katara didn't use the special-holy-water-from-north-pole on Zuko. This way, she could save Aang". Well, maybe, if she had used the water to heal Zuko's scar, that could have won him to their side. So, they all could easily defeat Azula, and Aang maybe would not have to die...

[@skull1161]

honestly I doubt it, Zuko is still way too flimsy emotionally to give up his last moment to regain his old life back

[@armancole2781]

“Look into your heart and see what it is that you truly want” - this along with Zukos entire journey in Book 2 from episode 1 to the finale, should show you that it doesn’t matter if she healed his face, he would have STILL chosen team Azula. At the end of the day he wants his fathers love, acceptance, and for his dad to not think he was worthless. If Katara used the water to heal his scar the fire nation would have won the war and the avatar cycle would be over so hope for peace would forever be gone.

[@thiagohayashi9936]

@@armancole2781 This is a thing that is kinda "dumb" (humanly dumb. But still dumb). Dude literally challenged Azula hours before. Recites "Azula always lies" when chilling at grass... And then teams with her. I think that MAYBE if he was healed, he just would have thought: "these people healed my face. Those other people burnt my face and NEVER helped me to find the Avatar, on contrary!". But yes, Zuko is not the smartest one in the show. It doesn't surprise me. It's just a "what if".

[@aracelireyes3986]

Zuko would want his fathers love more than the scar his dad gave him. It would do nothing

[@uhohmykokoro1616]

Nah, Zuko was not at the point in his arc where he would have stood by Team Avatar. He still had some growing to do

[@pimentx3253]

I am nor really dissapointed in Zuko, I mean I am, but after seing how his arc ends I think that was the right move on writers part. It was not only the right move, it was the best move. His "happiness" always felt somewhat aritificial. He was happy all time, as in he had no frustations whatsoever. And when Azula hands everything he thinks he wants on silver platter it is like offering an achool to an achoolic that is sober for only a few days. And even after he betrays Iroh is still conflicted. Zuko's character arc is one the best in any show ever.

[@tvxyzn]

Also it is realistic. Not many people can make immediate changes in their lives. Especially those who are victims of abuse.

[@ThatGuyCanmanNC]

Yea it kind of gives it away, would have been way cooler for it to just happen rather than us being hinted that its about to be.

[@SomeYouTubeTraveler]

I disagree; him saying _"Even you_ can't..." was an absolutely pivotal challenge to making Toph actually try it. Her whole driving motivation is proving people wrong who say she can't do things. It couldn't have gone any other way.

[@abcdefghij337]

Toph’s driving motivation was fear of being brought back to her parents and back to the sheltered life. The retort just goaded her a little and she does have that competitive edge.

Everyone focuses so much on Azula breaking the “hero is allowed to power up” trope that they forgot she did it on purpose to end the Avatar.

To those who are seeing Azula and the Dai Li angle a bit skeptically, think rationally about it: ...if you were the Dai Li and the choice came right down to either arresting Azula or Long Fang, as it happened in the throne room, who'd you choose to side with ? Its azula ez for me - she is the most overpowered villain in the entire show and one of the most overpowered characters ever - 1v1 except maybe the firelord himself, Azula can take down anyone - she blasts through toph's rocks like destroying toiletpaper, with her lightning, she eats ang for dinner - both 1v1 and in avatar state and at that point in time, she also eats Zuko for dinner and actually got to shoot the famed Dragon of the west, to create distraction, while being cornered by the dragon of the west himself, with the avatar, the strongest earth-bender ever, zuko, katara and another dude waving a stick around(Sokka). Long Fang himself might be a good earthbender, he certainly isnt the best, neither are the Dai Li agents, while Azula is one of the top 3 firebenders and top 3 most powerful individuals in the damn show up to this point. Not to mention, she is so powerful and so confident in her abilities, she literally leads a 3 person team to infiltrate Ba Sing Se and the Royal Palace and successfully does so after disposing of the famed Kyoshi warriors while toying with them ! Like, sorry, but seeing her nearly take down the city by herself in a drill with 2 henchmen and a maybe a few dozen soldiers inside the drill alone is enough for a Dai Li agent to heisitate to go up against Azula. If you actually KNOW who she is and what she can do and how you cant run and hide from her- not even the freaking avatar can- i'd throw Long Fang under the bus 10 times outta 10 even if its just 1 week with Azula. Sorry, even as assistant head honcho of Dai Li, i aint followig command of 'arrest the fire nation princess'. Thats a death sentence, simple.

Sure Zuko and Katara would have looked cute or whatever but they literally have jack shit in common apart from trauma and Aang and Katara have been through thick and thin together long before Zuko decided to do the right thing against the tyranny of the Fire nation. I’ll never understand why the hell people saw their first civil interaction to be romantic when Katara shows that she cares deeply about Aang constantly 🤷🏻‍♂️ If Zuko and Katara ever had a cave of two lovers episode none would doubt they were in love but they didn’t and they are not

To put this finale in perspective we had to wait A GOD DAMN YEAR back in the late 2000s for season 3. The wait itself would've been fine...if not for the shipping war to end all shipping wars. God I still have flashbacks.

[@RyanBennis]

I think it's incredibly raw for a kids show to kill of their main character (even tho it was short)

[@dreamanime4307]

Real

[@FOF275]

These are my top two favorite episodes of the whole show. The character arcs and action scenes coming together were absolutely beautiful This's also probably the episode that started the Zutara ship among fans

[@mr.narrator6781]

At least you guys don't have to wait over a year and a half between season 2 & 3 to finish the series like we did when it was first airing lol

[@nessmain6411]

were all looking foward to season 3 episode 6 and 8 lets be honest

[@619Slipk]

Don't flatter yourself. You were never even a player (Blue) 🔥🔥🔥

[@kuchingneko9616]

ayyy lets go book 3 is coming !!

[@adonayrivera8684]

literally Dead due: Zuko betrayed them. That’s really sad how Kataras Cries so much for Aang, specially after when she used the water from the oasis. 😔😔😔 It was painful!

[@yeri7star]

12:21 so real

[@constanceeke2664]

You guys have GOT to watch Korra after this. Even better it would be a new experience for most of you!

[@soundaholixx]

FULL COUCH LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@SarahEve97]

It is weird to watch Zuko and Katara in one room not fighting each other.

[@thomkuhle6941]

12:19 zutara shippers have entered the chat

[@ucsdgirl159]

🫡🫡 present

[@mikeburns3616]

Cool small detail when Ang is falling after getting struck with azula’s lightning. The bottom of his foot has a scar from it exiting his body and going into the ground below him exactly how lightning would work. The path of least resistance to a grounding source aka the ground through the foot.

[@Pizazonic]

2:39 the guys reactions to the left 😂

[@HolyParsival]

Aang was to young to understand that he didn't mean y9u couldn't love her or be with her. He just ment that you have to learn to let her go if you ever need to so you can choose the safety of the world or the safety of katara. The avatar is allowed to have attachments your just not allowed to put those attachments over the needs of everyone else's.

[@originaozz]

Me realizing that Kylo Ren is basically Zuko in live action.

[@DaBirb123]

You can see in 18:09 zuko’s face expression showed how much he didnt want to betray his uncle, but was forced to 😢

[@kimjk7551]

Это был очень эпичный конец 2й части

[@loucelstylinson5359]

FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW JASMINE TEA IS ACTUALLY ZUKOS FAVORITE TEA WHICH MEANS THAT IROH ACTUALLY NAMED HIS SHOP AFTER ZUKO 😭👋🏻♥️♥️♥️

[@jbearclowater]

Uncle Iroh's disappointment in Zuko here is reflective of the entire fanbase.

[@remo27]

To be fair, I think we expected a bit much. Zuko still has not only unresolved issues within himself but also some unresolved issues with Sis and Dad, plus the remnants of an understandable childish dream to be accepted into the 'family' or maybe just to FINALLY please his father, the only parent he's had since his mom was banished.

[@JordanCombes-k3j]

Are you guys going to watch the Legend of Korra after this?

[@StudioGek]

Potentially! Just depends on how much everyone wants it!

[@Jamclem]

@@StudioGekPlease do so it’s really good

[@davidnobre5660]

8:40 oh the parallels with Empire Strikes Back

[@felixmcphie]

Hey btw, the show had to really fast track the chakra opening process but it is actually a real thing. Buddhists, especially hindu buddhists meditate on chakras and visualise these aspects of their lives to gain enlightenment.

[@bluemilkxo]

12:21 me too girl, me too 🤣🤣🤣i love being delusional :)

[@aserotonin2304]

guys where is i wat to eat your pancreas movie commoooon

[@MichaelDelfin0]

Book 3 trailer is so hypeeee

[@pekl0]

its end of 2nd act and by rules of story telling its the lowest point. also color theme is so sick 1st blue water, 2nd green earth. lightning is electricity so it has to go thru to have impact and went out of the foot to the ground which was closest i guess the least resistance

[@Bluefield-pq8uy]

2:13 STOPPPP HAHAHA 🖐🏻😂 IM DED

[@Crepetomaniac]

The great thing about this show is that even though it’s a kids show, they’re trusting their young audience to be capable of understanding the plot. It was a giant gamble for the time, and boy did it pay off.

[@mihaelk.myriad]

There are so many moral values in this series.
