The Last Agni Kai but it has the Violin Opening you've been looking for 

Get well soon!

Get well soon ☺

As soon as I get myself situated, you'll be the first person who gets my support! Keep making awesome music and get well!

You have to make a track based only on that violin!! If you can make it, same style as this track, for sure it will perform good, because everybody wants it and from al versions i heard, i believe you can make the best. And make it emotional epic again because i hear the details. Not hardcore epic like movietrailers when you dont hear the details. But you know it better then me. I am just a fan of this kind of music. I am waiting for your masterwork, and i hope you will recover soon!

Damn get well

And the way she smiles before she unleashed a powerful fire kick.. Chills.

Idk why but that reply was always funny to me

I thought it was really sad, he responds without hesitation beacause he knows she doesn't feel sorry about it at all, and it saddens me when you think your own sibling, your flesh and blood would be willing to kill you. Zuko's story is truly a heart breaking one.

@@undyingknowledge7818 it’s such a sad story, they had such shit childhoods 😭

@@jf175 ikr I hate it when they glorify characters with damaged childhood. No character in ATLA had a healthy childhood.

honestly, it's sad that Azula is only like this because this is how Ozai raised her. She would have been different if she had someone different. Like Iroh as her dad.

@@DGuadalupePerez even Ursa, there's a video dedicated towards her banishment in the fire nation and the different time lines she could have done, my favorite one is where she takes Zuko AND Azula with her, raising them both with the caring and love they needed in the series, they're pretty much enemies of the Fire nation and Ozai himself.

@@DGuadalupePerez Its not just Ozai fault... Ozai raised Zuko too and I like to think Iroh tried to change Azula too.. Just she was born to a monster.. a psychopath

Excelente comentario, concuerdo 100% con lo que dices, este tema retrata maravillosamente la escena y sus consecuencias, no podía ser mejor!!

what I like about this comment is that the sad choice is so obvious until you pointed out the alternative (dramatic epic hero song) which could have been an equally valid choice. Excellent. This makes the choice they made so much more thought out than I initially considered.

Both physically (Zuko) and emotionally (Azula)

Azula if left unchecked would have turned out the same. Zuko had his uncle to teach him to he could be better than what his father was.

​@@Elinialei don't think so. I think the point of contrasting Zuko and Azula like this is to show the importance of a rescuer. Someone who believes in you, who wants to help you no matter how tough things get. Zuko had Iroh and later the Gaang while Azula had no one like that. If she did have someone she would not have turned out this way. People don't become deranged like that without some outside influence. Same goes for growing into someone better.

"In Avatar" is not needed.

I gotta agree…why is it that fire nation characters have the best character development ? Or Just best characters alone (ahem Iroh ahem) ?

@@paxtheskeleton6636 Cuz they have Iroh, Azula and Zuko. I think that's about it lol

@@curranfrank2854 yeah I know that’s literally what I’m saying lol

@@paxtheskeleton6636 and you have to think from an audience POV too some kids know what it’s like to have that person in their life like iroh and some know what it’s like to be so alone to the point you become what azula became all the kids or characters in the show have stories that are pretty similar especially the rich kids having a pretty relative bond with toph

I'm not sticking up nor justiying anything for ozaï, don't get wrong.. But what is "right or wrong" exactly ? People have their own perception of being "right or wrong", it depends/varies on an individual's believes. Ozaï believed in his view on/way of live to be the "right", and thought of the others oppossing him were the "wrong". same way as we do, but with different believes

@@mrnelis8037 And his beliefs ended in the permanent trauma of a young woman who was pushed to the point where she was not only willing, but took joy in the attempt, to kill her own flesh and blood brother. A 14 year old girl trying to murder her brother, and hurting others in the process of the attempt just because she knew it would hurt him even more. Right/Wrong, ways of life, systems of belief. Yes, they are all each of them subjective to the individual and entirely beyond our perspective on what truly constitutes our moral ideas of "right". But when a man tortures his son and turns his daughter into a murderous megalomaniac for his own gain and amusement...it truly is a reflection of what cruelties man is capable of inflicting upon the world around him.

@@mrnelis8037 this is not a good view on morality. morality strives for wellbeing. his actions were objectively morally wrong, as they violated wellbeing. what may appear as right or wrong for some people is irrelevant to actual morality.

@@dannycoitus6738 he (ozaï) had a different view on "wellbeing", his beliefs what i said differs from us others. we view it as wrong he bent his view morals to his own beliefs. at least how he thinks. i think..

@@mrnelis8037 Even with his view of well-being being his own wellness, society is the one who actually dictates a base line of good and bad, him believing he is right doesn't make him actually right. If you want to go a bit more in depth(between what is right and wrong), try to see the difference between morals and ethic, I had actually wrote a paragraph but in this discussion would be a bit too much.

Wow I had no idea about that, that is such a cool yet pretty sad insight behind a scene that I already loved so much

Grey DeLisle crushing it like always.

And she is also Wonder Woman in a bunch of stuff. Plus Queen Moon Star VS. and then also Vicki form Fairly Oddparents and Maz Katana in Star Wars and Arcee in Rise of the Beasts. Woman is a. LEGEND.

And came to voice the water bender in the Red Lotus 😅. She’s been both Fire and Water and did them so extremely well. ❤

That's awesome. Her defeated screams always give me chills and make me a little upset. I guess that explains it.

But that's the problem: Azula knew Zuko would save Katara, thus eliminating the only person she thought could actually overpower her; that's why she smirked right before she launched that strike. In her mind, the last waterbender is but a "filthy peasant," unworthy of the princess' respect. Azula underestimated Katara, not knowing that the latter is one of the most powerful waterbenders of her time (not to mention there was a full moon during the fight, so Katara's bending was amplified to it's zenith).

100

why am i crying reading this (its okay, i cry very easily) i love atla so much. and i love how they written azula.

Holy shit.. That makes so much sense. We knew from the beginning that Azula was bound to fail because shes a villain, but we didn't really expect any of THIS to happen.. We didn't expect for there to be a meaning behind her demise.. Or emotions tied to it other than "hah the hero won" No. Katara may have finished this fight and won, but Zuko still went down... She cheated in the agni kai and that's why she lost in the end.. Plus what you said about her betraying her friends. This shit is not only well thought out for her end, but it has deep meanings too.. Thats why I love this show so much haha

@@colt9836 not sure if there was a full moon, as far as I can tell there was zero mention or focus on the full moon, it was all about the comet. I think that was just Katara on full beast mode

They weren’t truly siblings anymore... not really... one had evil, brutality and malice at her core, and the other knew what had to be done. Such a truly sad yet beautiful tale.

Yeah I had the thought that Zuko took the throne from Azula and like Iroh's words echoed in my head when he said he couldn't or it shouldn't be his task to fight Ozai coz of: brothers killing/fighting brothers thing... Then why Azula vs. Zuko? Then I remembered in the end Katara was the one who finished the fight. (Lol not sure if I got the message through, I'm not good at explaining my thoughts)

Continuing the fire nation tradition. Nothing to see here

@@saruwatarisa That is true. It's just sibling vs sibling regardless. I imagine it's because he was Azulon's son and that it would be seen as the elder of the two killing his brother to reclaim his birthright despite his old age for power. It would be seen as continuing Azulon's legacy I think. He was wise and kind, but he was also old and didn't want to be leader. It's possible that he just didn't want the throne in his old age and wanted Zuko to lead everyone the right way for years to come so that he could live on and grow among the people. Zuko and Katara ended up sparing Azula, but ultimately it was a duel between siblings for the throne. And Zuko was the rightful heir so it really is the same thing: wise and learned older brother reclaiming his birthright against his set-in-her-ways and malicious younger sister. They both have Ozai as their father, and he is responsible for trying to incinerate the Earth Kingdom. It would be the same thing as if Iroh took his rightful place except Azula wasn't officially Firelord yet. He also traveled with Aang for a while and lived among other nations and benders, so I imagine it would be seen as a prince restoring the honor of his nation through mercy and devotion instead of war and fearmongering. In concept though you are right: he really is just taking down his sibling and it would go down in history as brother fighting sister. Except Iroh said "History would see it as a brother killing a brother". Maybe that's what set it all apart with Zuko sparing his sister and trying to help her later. Morally speaking it's all for the greater good no matter how tragic it is. That's why this fight is much darker and climatic to me.

@@damonrichardson1999 yeah that fight was epic. I couldn't think of anything to say but, that fight... The way they did it with the intense flames... Azula's blue flame vs. Zuko's... well regular flame 😂 and the dramatic music had so much impact. O.O

It's just a fire nation tradition, nothing extraordinary

@@houghwhite411 A duel between siblings is pretty extraordinary. If Zuko and Azula weren't siblings, this battle would not be as tragic and emotional.

@@Dkmaster69 And from the nuances I got that Ozai killed his father and claimed the throne when Iroh is the supposed crown prince. That's why I said it's just a fire nation tradition

@@houghwhite411 Technically Ursa, Zuko's mom killed Azulon, she proposed a plan to poison Azulon so Ozai can claim the throne, in reward, Zuko doesn't have to die. That's why Ursa got banished. Ozai mentions this during the invasion confrontation with Zuko and I think they go into detail more in the comics.

@@houghwhite411 it wasn't one. Azulon did not become this furious about Ozai wanting to usurp Iroh's claim if it was. Iroh even said himself that taking back Ozai's throne from him, would look really bad in the eyes of the people.

Not the fact that pretty perfect azula looked like an absolute mess?

@@pageclayton6850I love the memes with the “she’s slipping” and it’s some awful photo of someone with messed up hair and makeup lol. But it’s also interesting because despite her appearance, Zuko doesn’t really know what’s been going on with her. So yeah, her messed up appearance has something to do with it for sure but I think he could also just sense that something wasn’t right about her (despite her new look 😂)

you do?

In eastern cultures family fighting among each other is considered the worst thing. The hindu scripture "bhagwad geeta " begins at a similar situation lord krishna teaching warrior arjun his duty and righteousness ,who lost his morale when he saw his own family, his cousins , teachers and uncles as enemies in the battle field. So this theme shows the sad situation where a family is ripped apart , siblings are officially in a war against each other

The fact that Zuko and Azula (16 and 14 years old respectively) end this by fighting each other is so heartbreaking on it's own. Azula's breakdown at the end makes it even more tragic.

its good but i wouldnt go that far guy. its not that amazing nor is it unique really.

I raise you Answers from FFXIV. Perhaps watch A Realm Reborn - End of an Era or A New Beginning cinematic trailer. This is what occured at the conclusion end of the world events when the original game was taken offline in 2012 for them to completely remake and re-release the game as Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, but keep the original game's story canon. It is indeed used in a final battle of a raid series in the game, and the fight's spectacle is choreographed to the music. (・ω・)/ The song returns again and again in different contexts, recontextualizing the lyrics, and breaking the hearts of millions who make the journey through the game's immense story.

This and Kakashi vs Obito fight is on par with each other. Pure masterpieces, both scenes...

The way she yelled at the end broke me. COMPLETELY broke me. I never liked her but to witness her fall apart like that…

Azula is probably my favorite character just because of how complex she is if you really look into her character

@@sage_2608 I mean she's a clichéd sociopathic villain character without any moral ambiguity, that's not all that complex

@@edithputhy4948 She is more than that. She is insecure due to her lack of emotional depth and has always overcorrected. We see her true self when we see her trying to flirt as well as when she thinks about her friends and mother after they left her.

@@michaelcarlton1484 a sociopath can still be all those things and that was the most interesting side of her character, but the deranged, machiavellan villain side was way overblown but then again it is a cartoon so cartoonish overaccentuated characters make sense

The last season was my favourite, it made me cry so much both this and the reunion of Zuko and Iroh... MMMMM i love it so much.

Hey, I know you :)

"It may not be the most important" Boi if Azula won, even if Aang still beat Ozai, the war would take a much, MUCH, more aggressive turn than it already has. With her psyche she'd throw all caution to the wind, hold nothing back, and probably drag the war on for at least another year. Azula was in Avatar as Grievous was in Star Wars: not the main head, but still one that needs to fall

I’m very close to my brothers, so watching this, two siblings, one who has redeemed himself and the other falling into insanity, trying to kill each other is heartbreaking. I know Zuko wasn’t trying to kill her, but Azula being fully intent to kill him, and not feeling even a bit of remorse is so saddening.

Nah even as a Preteen/middle schooler watching ATLA I could tell why this was sad

I wonder if you could amp up Ozai vs. Aang parts 1 & 2. Trying to amp up that Dynamic Final Boss music and the intense fear both are feeling in their respective parts.

A clash between the quieted and the wanted

Aang vs ozai wasnt triumphant

in my opinion the music when aang goes into the avatar state was never meant to be triumphant, aang in the avatar state is supposed to be scary to everyone, even his friends, the fact that aang is even in the avatar state is an aversion to himself, its never triumphant to have to end things with violence in aang's eyes you can notice this especially at the siege of the north, it isnt a celebratory power up and beat the bad guys, its a scary natural disaster in a 12 year old and the music reflects that if anything, aang's situation is just as sad as any of the others in avatar, a 12 year old boy that just wanted to have fun with his friends was given an impossible burden, and when he naturally runs from the responsibility his entire culture was wiped out and he failed the world for 100 years, now he has to fight people like ozai when he just wanted to be a kid from a writing standpoint the avatar state becomes the antagonist in the finale, ozai is running for his life, and aang wants to spare him, however the avatar state is directly opposing what aang wants by trying to kill him, thats why i dont think its triumphant, the music doesnt imply that either

Dang....

damn that last sentence

Dang

She's a narcissist, a product of genetics and environment, with an insecure ego that has to control everyone in order to cope. The loss of her friends, their complete refusal to be in her life, caused a massive ego wound, hence her disintegration.

how exactly does her father abandon her?

and emphasizes that this is not something to be celebrated. A brother and sister in a fight to the death. Not as it was meant to be.

I remember everything being silent and only this playing. I still get goose bumps. The orange and red fire kissing each other's face. Insane.

It also helped with the decision to let the music tell the story and have no sfx or dialogue.

Jeremy zuckerman has said in interviews that it was really hard to make the music for this scene, and bryke referenced the ghost in the shell directors words "I want to hear what's in the chatecters hearts, not what's on the screen" neither zuko nor azula enjoyed that fight and you can hear that in the music.

the first series was nearly perfect with the exception of maybe the last few episodes feeling a bit rushed. korra on the other hand...................

Dang, you're right

and the worst part about it ? It was all just to spite Ursa every time he abused Zuko and encouraged others to do the same all of that just to hurt an unhappily married woman for talking back to him once

@@captainseb8652 There's that, sure. I think he decided early on that Zuko was weak, and Ozai could not permit this. That was enough. He judged his son at about eight, and decided he would never be good enough. Also Ozai is the younger sibling to, in his mind, a weaker and more emotional older sibling, whom he replaced as Firelord.

Genocide?

@@Sinewmire have you read the comics? If no, then i'd recommend them since they give more inside into this (and without going into spoilers, it's what *Captian-Seb* was probably refrencing)

And Iroh himself only started on the road of humility when his son died. He was just as much a fearsome, warmongering general as any before that. It took him years to reform himself, which I assume is why he was so unbelievably patient with Zuko- un-indocrinating yourself takes years.

Zuko also had his mother too. She also had some humanity in her. Azula wasn't as closer to her mother as Zuko was

He didn't truly love either of his kids, he just used them both in different ways.

My dad paused this recording because his reaction was, and I quote "THIS IS A KID'S SHOW!?!" Me: Yes. THIS is a kids show. Deal with it.

just imagine that fire nation's power if the royal family was in unity 💀💀💀💀

@@andimuhammadalif2829 She and Zuko find their mother. She's still completely batshit crazy, but she atleast tries to control herself.

@@nodaerT Yeah, until she tries to kill mom and then realizes after failing that her "true purpose" is basically to be Zukos archnemesis and constantly threaten his rule so that he never becomes weak and complacent, after which she becomes an absolute thorn in his side for the next several years before finally vanishing and never being seen or heard from again.

@@Cryogenius333 She becomes Zuko's version of the reverse flash

If you notice though, Ursa never called her monster or an abomination. The only person who ever said those about Azula was Azula herself. Ursa loved her and Azula knows it. But love is something Azula cannot understand. She only understands fear. Ursa loved her daughter. She was sad and disappointed in both her and Ozai

How does that look like a child lol.

Throughout the battle you can see just how much she's unraveling and it's chilling to see.

She was basically going to kill herself if Katara wasn't there, poor azula..

Sacrificing himself for a girl from the water tribe was also the ultimate rejection of his families nationalism.

I think it also reminds us that Zuko managed to change because he had people who helped pull him out of the darkness like Iroh while Azula never really had anyone to depend on in the first place. Ty lee and Mai were really only by her side for awhile because they feared her.

@@notyourbusiness2449 I have a real problem empathising with azula the way other people do, just because I'm unclear on whether or not her mental problems were the result of mistreatment or whether they were actually inherent to her psyche. Obviously there was massive mistreatment of her, but the fact that her machiavellian characteristics started to show so early (and that it appears that her mother noticed them first and then began neglecting her) leads me to believe that they were inherent. Now maybe I should empathise with her more because she didn't choose to be a machiavellian just like she didn't choose her parents, but if you can't hold someone accountable for who they truly are and how they behave, with all other variables removed, then how can you hold them accountable?

@@liamsloan5410 I get where you’re coming from and I also ask myself the same thing whenever I think about Azula. I ask myself a bunch of questions actually lake was she an ass since she was a little kid because she was a prodigy and her father favored her there for spent more time with her and brainwashed her since then? If her mother wasn’t so neglectful towards her would she have turned out different and ended up like Zuko? His first support was his mom and Azula said so herself in the ember island episode that her mom thought of her as a monster since she was little and it hurt her feelings. Or would it not have mattered whether her mother was loving to her in the end? Would Azula have still chosen the dark side if she had an actual support system? Would she still be as ruthless or would she be more like Zuko in the first seasons? Is she even capable of love?

@@notyourbusiness2449 I feel similar to you, she received positive reinforcement of her father every time she did well in her fire-bending and when she was ruthless. What brought her closer to her father, was also what made her mother distance herself from her. She's a self-fulling tragedy.

Oh my goodness really. wow…

I knew those strings sounds eerily familiar… this makes it so much sadder.

Composers are the geniuses of our time

It’s almost as if it’s signifies what should’ve been the relationship that Zuko and azula should’ve had if it weren’t for the fire nation.

thanks for the pain

I went from hating to pitying Azula in about...4 episodes. That's some impressive writing.

From which episode is the quote?

I thought I've heard all Iroh's Quotes

well I wouldn't say the fight was infamous aha. Good quote though!

@@crepecrepecreapee Shoot- Sorry I get words mixed up lol

The problem with Azula is that she was raised to believe failure was wrong, and she never allowed it to happen. She never learned, and in the end, she was just as unwilling to accept it. Her paradigm was what caused her to break in the end.

And her tragedy was quite honestly the reason he was always doomed to failure. Sure, he may have conquered the earth kingdom if aang hadn't stopped him, but pockets of resistance would always be springing up, and Ozai was never going to live forever. He didn't have an heir. He had a weapon, and a disappointment. One would be sheathed once the world was conquered, and the other was banished, never to return. Even if he died prematurely, Iroh didn't have any heirs either, his son died in the first siege of ba sing se. Any remaining fire nation nobles or high ranking military commanders would fight amongst themselves for the throne, and the empire would collapse. Then the other nations would come. They'd take their revenge, and the world would only have 2 benders. The only real way for the fire nation to survive was for Ozai to be defeated and Zuko to end the war

@@snotenberg7 I honestly don't think Ozai even cared for what would happen after he died. Everything was for him, not the Fire Nation, not the dynasty, just him. If he dies, what does he care happens to the world?

@@Fordo007 he probably would have, but only after his mortality was clearly in his face. He would have realized that he left behind no dynasty, no legacy. But for a long time, you're right, he wouldn't care.

The next part of the tragedy is that the person she's fighting? Zuko? He's literally the only person in the show who actually loves her. He could accept her even at this point if she'd accept him, but she can never do that because Ozai taught her that her worth comes from being better than everyone else. If she's not the untouchable prodigy, she's nothing.

I think that Ozai is a perfect example of the fact that fear not the appearance of the villain, but his actions. And he's also a great example of how not to raise kids

She did see partial redemption in the comics after the show ended.

Greatest tragedies in cinematic history and that’s no understatement !

@Dungeon Master ya i agree that she deserves her ending because she's made so much people suffer, not just to the gaang, zuko and her friends, but citizens, workers too. but I guess that's whats so powerful in that certain scene, someone you can absolutely hate, someone you won't feel mercy for,, someone totally psychotic and sociopathic suddenly turns into someone you pity the most and cry for. it gives u a weird aftertaste, a bittersweet, incomplete feeling in the end. the ppl working on the final agni kai scene and azula's conversion to absolute madness are amazing.

Yes, but unlike Zuko who sought redemption, she embraced what she had become.

@Dungeon Master I believe her surroundings are to blame. If you or I were raised with the idea that people with blue eyes are to be killed on sight and our whole country was forced into thinking like that, there isn't much we could've done, especially if we had a king as a father to make them proud. If it only were the family, she could've educated herself through her normal friends, but unlike Zuko, she never had the opportunity to see the wrongs in the fire nation, not until it was already too late, these beliefs cemented forever. This is just my opinion, though. I'm curious to learn your perspective on my theory. Until then, take care and I hope you're all doing well guys! 😊

Damn, I'm in tears

yeah its just not the same without that roaring

@@stevenwright366 it is still epic tho.

@@waqarsaleem8611 unquestionably

I think the fire sound in last agni kai being more muffled works really well. It was not an epic and rageful fight, it was more like seeing your parents fight each other which is something you wouldn't want to happen. It feels like the muffled fire sound sounds as if your ears were covered because you did not want to watch this happen.

@@Raven_Black_252 Interesting take! Never thought about it that way. That does help me appreciate the style more. My personal bias for fight scenes in most capacities is that I feel cheated whenever the integrity of the fight is changed. I don't like the artistic and dramatic quality that muting the audio brings to most moments because it feels disingenuous and takes me out of the moment, it makes me realize that I am watching someone's artistic vision rather than an organic fight. My personal preference is for things to be as raw as possible in most cases, and as such while I still liked the fight, I would have also preferred the fullest experience of the fight. If I wanted my ears to be covered, I would do it myself. You cannot overcome suffering if you're too afraid to look at it.

Do it, talk more on this fight 😌

The duality of learning to be great and being born great. Naruto vs Sasuke, Goku vs Vegeta what do all these underdog heroes have in common? The underdog always overtakes because they let themselves learn from others as they understand that they have more to learn, more to overcome. Being born a prodigy makes you feel expected of and to always keep up a shell of strength and invincibility, never allowed to show weakness, never allowed to admit they are lesser than. In many ways fighting your way up from the bottom is actually much simpler and creates more character. I love this juxtaposition of prodigy and not, a lot can be told about real character strength in story telling by using this trope.

Finally! Someone sees how Iroh also affected Azula's downfall, I feel so bad for the poor girl, she never stood a chance once they left.

completely agree, you can partly blame Azula for what she became, but not completely. I would still love to see an Azula redemption arc, but I doubt it'll ever get made. (as a TV show that is)

Whilst I agree, I think your last point in unfair. Azula, from the beginning maybe, was favoured by Ozai. He’s had her under his thumb since she was a kid. Every thought and belief was influenced by him and no one else. That’s because she wasn’t raised to value anyone else’s opinion. Iroh and her mother probably could only get through Zuko because he hadn’t been groomed by their father to do his bidding like Azula (in the sense that Ozai didn’t take as much of an interest in him). Who is to say they didn’t try to put her on the right path? I think even Iroh’s gift to her when they were kids is symbolic of him trying to correct her behaviour. And her mother trying to talk sense into her several times. But that’s the thing-when an abuser takes control of your life, no one else (and this includes the other parent and literally every other outsider) can do much in terms of intervening. Azula, from a young age, noticed what could get you ostracised in the fire nation. She saw the words of her mother and uncle did not mean much in that system and most importantly, that they didn’t align with her father’s beliefs. It’s obviously not her fault, the blame lies solely on Ozai. Although I do believe more could have been done for her, considering the interest her father had in her, who is to say he allowed anyone to influence her the way he had?

I don't know if you've watched ATLA but the whole score slaps, but yeah... especially this one

Just finished ATLA after only getting through half the first season multiple times in my life. So happy I finally finished it. Would you still recommend watching LOK? Lots of comments are giving me doubts.

@@matstersolo In my opinion, LOK has interesting season arcs. A lot of people complain that s2 was the worst but for me it was an okay season. S1 and everything else following after is great! The team avatar characters however don’t develop as much throughout the story like Team Aang did. Still would recommend though👌🏼

@@matstersolo I think season 1 is pretty solid. It has some good ideas, but also some things that could've been executed better. I would recommend watching that one at least. It works on its own. And if you're hungry for more you can give season 2 a try. I really didn't enjoy it though.

​@@matstersolo LOK is pretty good honestly, but I can't compare it to ATLA 'cause this show is too excellent. One of the thing to consider is this : LOK was written as a one season show in the begining. So, the cohésion of this season with the rest isn't great, what happened after season 1 though, it's up to your expectations, really.

Yea the problem with LOK is that Nick only approved LOK one season at a time so the creators always had to end the seasons as if they could be the end of the show. That made long term character development hard.

@@terrabiteking8439 Star Wars: The Clone Wars The Mandalorian

The Book of Boba Fett would like to know your location

@@Lukastar1 Dave Filoni was only in a partial role with that. As seen by the best episodes having his full involvement

@@Lukastar1 Dave Filoni was only a producer for most of those episodes. Meaning he found the casting and resources for the show. Made sure it didn't destroy any contiunity, etc.

I’ve never seen the clone wars or mandalorian; if I’d known the guy who did avatar worked on them I’d have been interested a long time ago! I just figured people talked about them because of Star Wars hype, never thought anything could compare to ATLA. Do they hold a candle to it? What else has he done?

I thought you said “most Avatar tracks are mediocre” at first and was like damn wtf is he talking about lol.

EPIC EMOTIONS

c l i c k b a i t but still true

@@JafetMeza Can I use this for a youtube video? Will gladly give credit in description

Sure

@@JafetMeza god bless

I think you're right. Sozin's comet played a huge role. She was devoured by her own thirst for power. It ate her alive and destroyed her psyche.

i mean she was still a textbook sociopath so I wouldn't feel too bad for her

your comment relates to alot of whats going on with this current day ordeals..... CRT, politics..... broken families... just wars of ideals pitting us against each other. this country needs an avatar right now and unfortunately the soft side of avatar aangs approach wont solve our deeper problems..... to use a quote from Iroh in context of our current problem......... the vast majority of us are at war with ourselves and each other, we lack balance within ourselves( why our country lack any balance as a result). we need to find the avatar within ourselves and do what must be done to make changes that will impact future generations

@@edithputhy4948 I think people should 100% feel bad for her ?? She’s 14 and no one ever genuinely loved her if you have read the comics which SPOILER her own mom a big reason why azula is the way she is forgot about her and started a whole new family she had no idea who azula was.. she was never actually given a chance and the only reason Ozai payed more attention to azula was because he thought Zuko wasn’t his actual son cause of the mother

@@mal-9869 which part of she's a textbook sociopath didn't you understand? she's literally a full fledged sadist and incapable of love and empathy.

@@edithputhy4948 Azula possesses many sociopathic traits, but also lacks some. This doesn't change the fact that if she had proper guidance and probably a loving family, that she would have ended up a lot different. The comics also make it pretty clear her mom plays a big big part in the way she ends up. I know it's really hard to hear but even sociopaths, real or fiction, deserve some understanding, love and guidance.

Well tbf I think Zuko probably would have redirected the lightning at her and killed her if not for Azula targeting Katara. He wouldn't have been happy about it but I feel like he would have done it if he felt it necessary. Katara being involved might have actually saved Azula's life.

Pretty sure Zuko wouldn't have hesitated to kill her, because by then he had fully realized who Azula was and knew she wouldn't hesitate to kill him either

oh Zuko would've killed her bc there wasn't really another option in their battle, Katara wouldn't have

that's a normal "big bro-lil sis" sibling routine. It's rough buddy...

oh my god some of you might've mischaracterized zuko 😬😬

i know this may be a stretch but what if you do both? double major! your paragraph gives the impression that youd definitely be able to pull it off

I agree! Do both! Double major, or do one as a minor, or see if your college offers an interdisciplinary degree! If I were to do college again, I would do INTD for sure...

Pursue both! I majored in math but got minors in drama and philosophy. I changed majors a few times so I had to play a lot of catch-up, otherwise I totally would've double majored in math and drama! Maybe even tripled! I know SEVERAL people who double majored. You can do it!

Double major is more work, but you are almost getting 2 degrees for the price of one... I really wished I had done it. Can't change the past though, so I've accepted it. Anyway, I believe in you stranger!

May i point you toward Mercedes Lackey? She is proof you can do both! She wrote books and then wrote songs for them! Check out Battle Dawn and Cost of the Crown!! GOOD LUCK

Easiest part of the job tbh. A shame internet culture is so against proper crediting.

@@JafetMeza still, it really means a lot to the artist, and useful too because I loved the art and wanted to check out more of the artist’s work!

He's great and has a lot of cool stuff so definitely check it out;

@@JafetMeza thanks i will!

When I looked into the description my heart just jumped because of the THREE links. It's so rare that people even include other platforms

I put this show off because I thought it was a kids boring show. My sister finally convinced and… WOW. I fell in love with Zuko and his internal conflict. Just seeing him grow and the relationship he had with his uncle and Azula. It’s tragic but also beautiful.

Except all the commenters who gleefully get off on her fate. They would wish it upon her and probably other females they don't like.
