It probably wouldn't do anything visually. It's been years since he got the scar, so it's mostly healed. The only thing the spirit water would do, is fix his eye sight, assuming the injury damaged his eye. But the scar would remain like it did with aang.

[@helpme5785]

Yeah exactly. Generally if there's a scar that means whatever injury was there has already healed.

[@jonathanacosta36]

The water doesn’t just heal injuries. It literally brings people, even the Avatar, back to life. And since Aang got shot while in the Avatat state, it killed the Avatar spirit (Raava) as well, which means it brings spirits back to life as well. Katara implied that she wasn’t entirely sure what the water could do, just that it had “special healing properties”. With resurrection being one of them, I wouldn’t count healing physical impurities likes scars completely out since that’s pretty minimal compared to bringing people back from the dead. And scars do fade away gradually over time. Obviously Zuko’s didn’t, but to be fair he didn’t really care to treat it and it was bigger than an average scar.

[@lucasrobin2788]

I think the point they're making here is that if this Spirit Water is powerful enough to bring someone back from the dead, it might be powerful enough to return a scar to normal skin.

[@Sonic09Hedgehog]

While Iroh didn't become Fire Lord, he was still the best Father Lord second best would be Zuko.

He had a rocky relationship with Ozai, and he didn't want Izumi to have the same thing. He was very protective of his daughter Izumi. After Zaheer took the Queen's breath away (ba-dum-tss), he made sure to return to the Fire Nation to protect her in case Zaheer targeted Izumi next.

@10:43 The idea of a failed invasion is actually covered pretty well in the fanfic Avatar: Distorted Reality. It imagines if Aang did not defeat Fire Lord Ozai. He asks for help from Avatar Yangchen, who sends him into an alternate reality where Azula and a scarless Zuko find him in a volcano, the Water Tribe has invaded the world, Sokka is a banished prince with a scar, and Katara is his calculating sister. Its super well done, I recommend looking it up if you're interested in alternate timelines / possibilities for the Avatar universe.

[@Shirraz87]

I cannot see Zuko behaving too differently if Katara healed him. He still would've betrayed Team Avatar, though with a heavier conscience than originally. And with Aang being dead by lightening and lack of spirit water. While in book 2, Zuko learns that he has his own destiny. However, at that point, he still believed that honor was something he needed to be given back by his father. He still longed for that. The first half of book 3 shows him struggling and being unhappy, even though he finally got what he wanted, or rather, what he thought he wanted. However, in this hypothetical situation, Aang would have been dead, Katara, Sokka, and Toph would have hated Zuko's guts forever. Iroh would probably want little to do with him (maybe. He never stopped loving Zuko,) And then Zuko would've been left with regret for the rest of his days in a fire nation-run world.

Well *Zuko* is *Zuko* with the scar.🔥

[@zenosama8505]

I would love to see a offical alternative timeline mini series where zuko and iroh fight the fire lord together

[@DanielRivera-qi1kp]

What if Katara Tried to heal Toph's eyes using the water from the spirit oasis?

[@unhelpful_imp]

I don't think it would work, because she was born blind

[@darkchylde7532]

@Mohammed Razvi_2240421 Aang wasn’t born dead. Toph was born blind so there’s nothing there to heal

[@G.A.B_06]

One of the best Videos you guys have ever made 👏👏👏👏

[@marth8166]

Zuko without a scar is like sokka without his boomerang

[@desolation1322]

True

[@xRobert1016x]

Isn’t Zuko the one that unintentionally inspired Azula’s suggestion to destroy the earth kingdom during Sozin’s comet? Meaning that if he wasn’t at the meeting then Ozai wouldn’t have attempted to destroy the earth kingdom during Sozin’s comet?

[@breezy3392]

11:12 I feel like Azula would object to her brother being named Fire Lord over her. I think she would plot to replace him. Theories?

[@Dayenibatman]

The thumbnail 💀

[@caos1925]

love how you cover all the possibilities really, instead of jsut focusing on one timeline like many channels.

[@aless7038]

This channel is underrated IMO. :p

[@rollinthunder1000]

It has nearly a million subscribers, no its not.

[@aless7038]

@@rollinthunder1000 We are talking about ATLA. Of course 1 million is a lot. But I know that the number of people who watched this show is much bigger. I meant that it's underrated if you consider the people who watched the show/who are subscribed

[@dupaincheng]

i’m glad he didn’t get his scar healed and join team avatar during the crossroads of destiny. zuko going back home, realising it *wasn’t* what he wanted and confronting his father was such a crucial part of his development, he wouldn’t be zuko without it.

[@spooder_jockey]

7:05 If Aang had never learned energybending from the Lion Turtle, even if they had defeated Ozai, what would they do with him? Aang would probably object to Ozai being executed, but you couldn't just keep the dethroned Fire Lord in prison, especially with Sozin's Comet approaching.

[@Zigulart]

Actually, in the third timeline where Aang dies and the cycle is broken there would be no Korra to open the portals at the north and south poles to begin with. So, when Raava came back she would be sealed in the that tree as well. All things considered this outcome with 10,000 years of darkness wouldn't actually be possible, but the Fire Nation would still win.

[@kristinboggs2676]

Zuko can decide on his own trip and to decide if he wants it to be healed

[@jsmoke2657]

U don’t know how much this channel means to me. I’ve been sad when I think back to my childhood and remember how much I miss this show and this channel reminds me of the great times I had watching this with my friends when I was little. Thx u

[@castingmywayto1433]

Zuko is the best

[@e_lunal5491]

Actually when the fire nation went to destroy the land of the eartth nation, it would've never happened if zuko sided with team avatar

[@dafy8590]

If Katara healed Zuko’s scar Zutara will probably exist in the show... And ik I wouldn’t exist✌️

Zuko’s scar would have changed the whole book 3

[@Smiggieballs1]

If zuko didn’t have his scar, I honestly don’t think he would’ve been important to the plot. It was that moment, the one where he got the scar, that made him who he was in the show.

[@frigidwolf]

In fact they’re questioning what if his scar was healed, not what if he didn’t have it in the first place

[@frigidwolf]

@@Smiggieballs1 yea yea sure, I was only saying this is not what the video was referring to 😅

@ipo @WilliamBermack thank you for interacting so kindly, it makes me happy

[@blam9360]

Wrong. He still need to teach Aang firebending

[@theseedling6054]

Bottomline: the directors of ATLA carefully crafted the storyline of the series. Kudos to them, we wouldn't love Zuko even more!

[@chris6799]

Actually I think that maybe one of the avatar spirits would’ve warned anng about what the fire lord was planning

[@varrick9151]

I kind of liked how the physical scar on Zuko represents the emotional trauma that he went through with his dad so I wouldn’t love that if it actually happened

[@clare8569]

I think it was important that his scar stayed. Its a part of his identity and that experience shaped who he is. When he accepted his scar, he accepted his past and the fact that he could not change it, whilst also accepting his destiny.

[@quisgaming7856]

If yall do more WHAT IF stories A lot more people would come back For real

[@justino.maduka77]

Ozais plan came from Zuko talkin about how the earth kingdom citizens are proud. No zuko, probably no plan

[@Zane0621]

In the third timeline, Aang could be alive because Katara healed Zuko without the spirit water before so Aang could still be alive and Zuko would definitely think that Aang is dead and everything would probably go the same way until The day of the black sun when Team avatar find the bunker, but it would probably be Zuko and Azula instead of just Azula and they both wouldn't be expecting Aang I say that Aang and the group would escape but Zuko wouldn't join team avatar then for book 3 Sokka would never find suki and his dad because only Zuko would know and the timeline for #1 would happen

[@tootahua2475]

How about “what if” Zuko and Katara become a couple which forms a union for both the Fire & Water Nations? ☯️ 🌊 🔥

@LilT Marshall you see, that's why it's a "what if" 🤗
