So has no new comic/content about Azula and Zuko come out since this video?
Update plzz
21:03 hold on I thought May and Zuko ended up together??
What happened to sokka's messenger bird
It’s been a year. What has Azula been up to? Please update!
"My own mother, thought I was a monster"
*SHE WAS RIGHT OF COURSE, BUT IT STILL HURT*
Thats Azula for ya!
At least she was self aware 🤷♂️
That cracked me up 🤣😂🤣😂
Iconic^^
@@s1nmi_ ME TOO
She was abused in a different way than Zuko. Her father manipulated and groomed her into a monster, and she eventually went mad.
The golden child for the narcissist parent ozai. If I were in her place I'd crumble from the pressure she went through 😐
@@Janary08 same. It's no surprise she crumbled too
@@Janary08 It's amazing how good of a representation of destructive narcissism this is. Azula shows what can happen when you follow in a narcissists footsteps and become like them. To her there is nothing more painful than her other parent (and the world) not seeing how 'great' she is, it breaks the illusion of power and control. For a narcissist there is nothing more scary than someone not acknowledging their control. Even if you're angry with a narcissist and cut them out of your life they'll still feel powerful because they had so much influence over your emotions, and that power is more important than being loved.
Which in turn means that the only way to feel significant and seen by a narcissist is by making them proud and meeting their expectations, Azula does this but it never truly gains her anything, it's an empty pursuit.
It's a very complicated and heartbreaking dynamic and i'm so impressed with how maturely this topic was approached on the show.
But she was already a messed up child from the beginning with burning her dolls, lighting someone on fire, and destroying the things around her like that bush. I know she kept doing it for her mother’s attention but she could have used a different approach. Her father just encouraged her bad behavior and since she needed a parents love she kept on doing it to the point where she did go mad but she was already bad in the beginning.
@Lohen grin You really missed the point.. Maybe educate yourself on the dynamics of narcissistic parents and particularly the golden child dynamic. It'll make more sense to you.
When you realize that mai and ty lee were the only thing keeping azula sane
Damn :(
Yeah after they went against her that's when she started to lose it
Me and four other people be like: yep, yeah, absolutely, mm-hm
But, here's the problem. Azula underestimated them so much that she thinks those two will not going to betray her. When she said to the King Kuei: "It must be hard to find someone as closer as it is" Or something, You can see both of Mai and Ty Lee exchanged their faces like they agreed. This is what they said: "Keep your friends close and keep your enemies closer."
@@Christinavernon2382 not really she lost it after she found out that her mother really did love her because she thought she didn't ,so she built this concept in her head that "is better to be feared than loved" so when she found out her whole life was built on lies she lost it
I think the saddest part of it all is that the only time azula ever heard the words "I love you" was from an hallucination
“That’s rough buddy”
Jesus fucking crist
A* hallucination
@ogg yes why do you ask?
@@therion8469 Focus on the comment instead of correcting it man.
Katara: My mom used to breathe
Sokka: My only family left are my sister and dad
Toph: my family was overprotective
Zuko: my family wants to be all psychopathic and rule the whole world leading my mother to leave and possibly die because she didn’t want that
Aang: You guys had parents?
Error on Sokka's part. He still had Gran Gran.
Aang had Monk gyatso who filled the father figure role for Aang
You mean : Aang: you guys have a nation?
Zuko: my honor
Random Page yeah but that’s what sokka said he said he said he had no one but his sister and his dad and katara took his mothers role after she died he said
Dude everyone forgets about hawky. He flew off with the letter to toph’s mom and was never seen again.
it was target by Combustion Man's larger bird. It was tied up good :c
Lucky Salt no that was a fire bender bird when they seen aang alive
Tophs mother prolly got it but just gave up cuz she probably knows that she’s ok
I didn't forget... I literally mentioned it
@@katielien3778 what?
Zuko: I can't put my finger on it but Azula is slipping
Azula: completely flustered, can barely walk, hair all messed up, talking in a much more sick/psycho tone, daggered smile, terrible makeup, overall looking like a dump truck
I swear to god every character in a cartoon does this.
😂😂😂
Another things, Zuko:
1. Where are her bffs, Mai and Ty Lee? Why are they not there?
2. Where are The Dai Li agents who last time helping her in Ba Sing Se?
3. Do you think it's normal for doing a coronation when *no one* is there and while everyone is in the war?
@@margarethmichelina5146 you didnt pay attention to the show. Its even mentioned in this video.
1. She banished the dai li Agents, thinking that theyre not loyal and will be a problem when shes the firelord.
2. They split-up with her BFFs since the Prison breakout with sokkas father in the boiling rock prison.
3. Everything is possible in a war
@@abrenvillanueva8623 they probably meant that zuko was wondering those things
@@abrenvillanueva8623 I was talking about how Zuko did not see the other factors beside her looking so unusual as always.
As a kid, I hated Azula because she reminded me of my friend’s sister. However, as an adult, I can sympathize with her somehow, and it makes her last confrontation with Zuko even more heartbreaking.
So ur friend's sister had blue fire?!
@@samiranghosh9535 Yeah, bruh. She had a blowtorch and everything.
Am i the only one who had a crush on azula as a kid?
@@rickalicious1116 Yo how bad was your friends sister
@@yourmother-he9uj no I did too that’s the only villain that I liked on the show
“my own mother thought i was a monster...”
“she was right of course but it still hurt”
Me Official i didnt know anyone else commented this its just my favorite azula quote
Me Official and the person he copied also copied Azula.... so who cares
“That’s rough buddy”
Damnit baby Yoda you beat me to it
Me Official its in "
Basically:
Having daddy issues makes you a people pleaser
Having mommy issues turns you into a psycho
What if someone have both of them
gordon ramsey they become doofenschmirts
That's a bit of an oversimplification, daddy issues don't make you a people pleaser at all, looking at Zuko that's not what i see. What this really is about is the complex trauma you suffer from having a narcissistic authoritarian parent. Zuko is the black sheep, never good enough, his struggle is finding self-worth and acceptance. Azula is the opposite, she was build up by her narcissistic father because she is the golden child, the one with potential and so her struggle is trying to meet the impossible demands of her father in order to feel worthy, only her father's approval has any meaning to her.
Truth is that narcissists do not ever value you for who you are but only for what you can do for them meaning that their true pain is the absence of parental love. Unfortunately in Azula's case desperately trying to attain that love causes a rift between her and her other family members making her even more lonely and creating the narrative that she will never be loved which leads to her belief that if she doesn't look out for herself no one will, she feels like it's her against the world. Zuko goes through quite the journey but eventually finds the healthy way out; finding love and support in people outside of his family and sharing his grief so he can heal, that way he becomes more and more independent and in the end won't need his father's approval.
@@eev14 I would read your comment but I have it's way too late for that
final fantasy x in a nutshell
Azula at 14: I have mastered dozens of fire bending techniques, I can produce blue fire, I can shoot lightning out of my fingertips, I am the leader of my country, I am deceptive and a master at lying, and I am a heartless monster.
Me at 14: I can twirl a pencil around my finger
well that’s cool too :)
Relatives
call yourself The pencil bender!
Can she twirl pencils around her finger? No I didn't think so.
Azula is literally the age of a 8th-9th grader, she’s a child who, like many of the children in the avatar world, she’s a child born into a world of blood whos had to learn to act a certain way to survive
But she always was a sociopath
@@Gerolinger Socio, meaning, formed by social interactions. Sociopaths are not born sociopaths, they are formed by how they are raised
@@davidslocker1585 are you saying azula was born a villain or something? o_0
@@blidea9191 The opposite actually...She was more sadistic and mischievous than most, but not psychopathic.
@@juanmanuelmoramontes3883 true
Zuko: has daddy issues

Doofenshmirtz: both parents didn't show up on the day he was born
He was also adopted and raised by ocelots in the wilderness, meaning he in the eyes of the law he is an ocelot and qualified to become an OWCA agent 😉
Noy Nemenzo this is the most underrated shit ever
This shit is funny as fuck.
The funny thing, Doofenshmirtz grew better
underrated comment 👑
You can say what you want, but Azula is definitely one of the most well written characters of any Nickelodeon animated show.
So true
of any animated show, alot of these characters are. the connection, emotional development and the growth they have is amazing on this show.
she was a half assed sociopath.
i think the whole show is one of the best in general. they knew what story they had to tell and told only that, no dragging it on for views. the characters each have enough depth to allow bonding with the viewer without it being confusing. not to mention that the characters each have traits that many kids can relate to. the shows a real gem
trashbag she truly is
Kinda upset they didn’t mentioned her in LoK at least once
Do you know the name of the back ground music in this video
Knowing how Izumi (Zuko's daughter) and Iroh II (Izumi's son and Zuko's grandson) are nice, it is implied that they both never meet Azula and Azula probably leaving with her asylum friends for good because she knows she can't manipulate Zuko anymore. I can imagine Azula might be living the rest of her life with her new 'friends' but at the same time, she will feel guilty, delutional and regret because she never raised with love. Even if she's back in Korra, she might suffer the same feeling like Katara and Toph for 'their fighting day is over'.
i feel like she want to learn how zuko direct is lightning and after so many tries she died young accidentaly but she was happy because maybe she thinks no one is more deserving to kill her than herself
@2020 is the worst year ever is that in the comics?
She was a spirit mushroom
Knowing that azula's power hungry nature came from grief makes me wonder where ozai's power hungry nature came from. Since iroh was older, he was the natural hair to the throne, so ozai wasnt raised to be a supreme leader, so I Wouldnt wrack it up to the way he was raised. I wonder if he had a similar early life to azula, and part of the reason he favored azula is because he saw himself in her. I would never justify his actions but it would still love to see a backstory.
Iroh was the favorite growing up and ozai was pretty much ignored. Ozai was jealous of Iroh so he grew power hungry to get his fathers approval.
@@jenno5555 why does this sound like an evil Zuko AU
@@zotasalt8994 because it is
It is
@Rayyan Munif Yes, and that would be very realistic. Trauma and abuse often get passed down in families.
She is 14 years old but looks, acts and sounds like she is 20.
to be said that its a show, so ages are simply something said ; 14 years old , growth as a heir to the trone , gifted . if not for the body ( not only that she seems 2-4 years older by body shape , but by phisical strenght ( something that i attribuite to the bending since it seems to empower ppl and weakening them when removed) i don't think this is too far fetch . considering kids as non-humans, incapable to "act" as "adults" is something that we started doing only recently .
zukos 16 and the same goes for him😭 sometimes i forget that nearly all the main characters are around my age
Acts is 11
I mean it was initially a kid show they needed to keep the characters young even if it didn't make any sense..
That’s that R.Kelly math
Azula: Has mental breakdown and goes into an insane asylum
Kids watching the show: *”This is fine.”*
Spooks. Lol
bruh
Lmao
I mean signs of a true psyhcopath all her life, it had to happen at some point.
RøseShadøw true
Zuko: Azula always lies
Azula: *lies*
Zuko: *suprised pikachu*
Azula is one of the best villains I’ve ever seen in television. She was incredibly well written and a very complex character. She’s definitely one of my favorite characters on the show
Ngl, when Azula started crying at the end it hit me hard, it gave a sense of losing everything you thought you had.
Serves her right.
How did this comment blow up?
@@firelordzuko7237 lol zukoooo
LMAOO I THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY💀
@@suriwazuprodriguez2871 rightt likee bish get up
Not gonna lie, when Zuko got a cool knife and Azula got a doll, I really felt that...
Iroh had no idea what Azula would want since she always hated him and all his time with the family was with Zuko because Zuko loved him.
@@skelebott9178 I just mean that I can relate to getting a "girl toy" when my brother gets something cool/thoughtful. I guess I haven't read any of the comics that came after the series, so I wouldn't know how much time the kids spent with Iroh at this point. However, I would imagine that it wouldn't be hard to find a thoughtful present for an outspoken bending prodigy. Being an excellent fighter is literally a part of who she is... He could've picked up a knife for her when he was getting Zuko's. Even as an afterthought, it probably would have been better.
In the scene, the background music even changes to some dinky tune, to signify to the audience that the gift was lame.
Not that Azula deserves a thoughtful gift from Iroh, lol.
Edit: Hey guys, I know I wrote A LOT here, but this really wasn't meant to be that deep. I was more making a comment on how the scene was interpreted in this video than anything else. Thanks for the talks tho. For some strange reason I'm having a lot of fun 🤔 Wish I could talk to ATLAB fans more irl 😅
That might be true!
APersonUsingGoogle I think it was the level of relationship Iroh had with Zuko and Azula. When Zuko, Mai, Azula, and Ty Lee vacationed at Ember Island and they had flashbacks even when Zuko was a baby his Uncle Iroh was always playing with him and treated him like a son. So Zuko was always looked out for by his mother and Iroh because they saw the way Ozai treated the two of them differently. But I think she was kinda neglected and they could have down more to help her be better instead of writing her off as messed up. Lol I definitely get what you mean btw.
I mean if I was azula i would use the doll to practice fire bending then take the knife...
Fun fact: In season 2, Azula became a fairly popular character which neither of the creators expected because she was even a worse villain than Zuko. They decided to give her more humanizing moments in season 3 partially because of this and partially because they wanted to give most characters more depth in that season.
"When Zuko, Aang, and *Mai's boyfriend* , Keelo..."
Wait, that's illegal.
It sucks when the villains aren't actually terrible people but just people with who've been mislead.
But it also means that they have a lot if potential
It puts you into a crazy dilemma of who you want to trust and who you don't want to trust. This is what the show always does.
It means they are more evil because they chose to. They liked it because they couldn't compete with others in empathy
id argue that makes them more compelling antagonists
That’s all true villains. People aren’t born evil.

Because there is going to be a live action show on Netflix
Le Baguette it honestly can’t be worse then the live action movie 🤢
Michael Mugnano we don’t talk about that
and a new game
Michael Mugnano isn’t every episodes budget like 500k or 1 million?
Season 4 would've been so great, with Azula's redemption and Ursa returning. It probably would've been even better than Zuko's from what I'm seeing.
Ikr that would’ve been avatar completed
Honestly, I feel a lot of guilt when I think of Azula. When she was a child she had no sense of right and wrong, this should have been just a phase but pretty much everyone including Ursa made it her personality, Ursa did what she thought was right for the family, the father favors the sister and the mother favors the brother but she had failed to realize that children AND A SPECIALLY AZULA need attention from both parents.
However, even if Ursa had realized that, it still wouldn't have made a difference because of Ozai. And Zuko and Azula just had a sibling rivalry that would have faded if it wasn't for the reasons I listed earlier.
And if it wasn't for that narcissistic asshole named Ozai, Azula would have never have to go through this terrible purpose. However, we never heard what happened to Azula after she watched her brother's speech. So I hope for her sake that Ty Lee or someone like her showed her the true meaning of life; happiness. Something that was never shown in Azula
Bruh straight up everyone in the Avatar world had family problems
I mean, straight up all people in the world have family problems, some are tame, some are downright horrible. Just to take into account, around 50% of marriages end in divorce, just that, on a marriage that has children, is devastating for them (and that's one of the tame examples).
(Also this is part of what makes this show's characters feel real, they all have their own internal and external struggles).
Rich M it's not a problem for aang if you know what I mean
Not momo
StapleGolf Well even though Aang never knew his real family, he had the monks. They were his family. And when he and the other monks found out he was the Avatar, that change everything. All his time was dedicated to mastering the four elements. And his only friend became Monk Gyatso. So when he found out that they had all died, he was devastated. He was filled with anger and sadness, forcing him into the Avatar State as an outlet for the pain. He then realized he wasn’t alone, he had Katara and Sokka. And they became his new family.
@@staplegolf9595 I'd say that having your parents and entire nation die when you're that young counts as family problems
Azula the one protagonist who's actually smart enough to take a shot when the dude she's fighting is powering.
Whoops meant to say antagonist I know she's a villain.

I mean... my school projects are more interesting than that movie... i even couldn’t make it to the end😂😂😂 it was honestly disrespectful
Well what about when the humans then into blue alien things. With the guy in the wheelchair. The second grossing movie of all time
@@hemi7006 facts
I wonder if Ozai being second born also had something to do with his favoritism of Azula.
Oh definitely
O:
never thought of that dang
I swear I can't defend any of Azula's actions as she was going to be the next Ozai and was particularly happy about it. Like it scares me how much joy she had in murdering a bunch of innocent earth people even though they won the war. IDC if she was used as a weapon she had a choice between doing what's morally right and what's morally wrong and she chose wrong as it will give her more power.
I think Ozai knew Zuko wasn't his son.
TheVictress but Zuko is his son
Zuko: I know what you're going to say, "She's my sister, and I should care."
Iroh: No.... She's crazy and she needs to go down."
classic uncle iroh
Iroh did nothing wrong!
Oh wait
That is the most uncaring and callous comment Iroh has ever said!
Fuck Iroh for saying that about his own niece!
That statement is the most callous and heartless comment I've heard from the so called fan favorite sage.
Iroh only cares about Zuko and never acknowledges Azula as a niece! He doesn't give a shit if she lives or dies.
@@izunadara1894 he cares about zuko because of the good he sees in him.....and he doesn't see the same in her
People really can’t accept that Azula’s character is just as great as Zuko’s lol.
The only difference is that Zuko had two people in his life that loved him deeply while Azula had none.
For instance:
1) Azula’s dad didn’t love her, he loved her strength and potential.
2) Because Azula looked up to her dad so much and became more like him, her own mother didn’t even love her. Especially since Azula acted out for attention, her mom’s view on her only worsened. And before you all say “oh Azula’s mom loved her blah blah blah”.
It was mentioned by the mom that she didn’t love Azula enough. Which is true! Instead of trying to understand *why* Azula was acting out, the mom just immediately dubbed her as monster basically.
3)Azula may have been friends with Mai and Ty Lee, but she was such competitive/perfective person, that she made everything a competition. Or a moment to show dominance over someone due to the way she grew up. And eventually things added up and she was *betrayed* by the only two people in her life that she could say she loved.
So all in all, I love Azula’s character and it’s just sad and upsetting that she ended up being alone and unloved like she feared.
wow could not have said it better
all azula did was want her mothers approval and she, at 14 was trying to prove her power and it ended up being her downfall... when she went mental at the end... it broke my heart...
I swear, Avatar is a true masterpiece. Each character has such a unique story, they need to bring it back on tv

Dude the background music is so chilling
When Azula had her breakdown after being defeated, it I was terrified. It sounded like a demon was in her and that was probably the darkest moment in ATLA
Every time I watch it, its’s always a similar reaction, but it goes deeper
I felt like the blood bending stuff was the darkest. After watching the Puppetmaster episode I was like, "damn, they really want there didn't they?" Also that old lady was creepy AF the whole time, even when she was being nice. It's like the writers knew the depths they could go with bending and then were like, sure, let's go there.
Anduril right
Grey DeLisle did such an AMAZING job voicing Azula! the psychotic crying after Katara chained her up gave me goosebumps and made it sound so real

Azula is the most fascinating character in the series. She has more videos than anyone in particular.
Azula is one of my favorite characters in the Last Airbender show. Grey Delisle does a fantastic job with doing her voice and that only makes me like both the character as well as the actress.
Why is Netflix creating a live action for this show...they should just continue animating with a new series with THIS PLOTTTT

Elyanis Gonzalez that makes sense. Since she ended marrying zuko I was “the age gap is kinda wacky even more so since she is the same age as his little sister”.
Kind of sad how people miss the underlying meaning of Azulas’ character. She is what Zuko would’ve become if he didn’t get the love and guidance from Ursa and Iroh. If you look at the story from the perspective of Azula, she’s simply being the perfect daughter; arguably the best bender in the world, loyal, smart, cunning, completely raised by Ozai, she became his perfect war tool. Zuko, on the other hand, had the privilege of being banished with his uncle who could teach him the ways. Azula never had anyone who cared about her and she was 14 (!!)
Exactly, she had Ozai's favor, but she never got love.
They were both loved by their mother. She just didn’t accept that love
I don't think so. She had psychopathic traits being manipulative and feeling no sympathy. I think she was born that way.
@@mannenibla204 they were both abused children. Whether you wanna argue nature vs nurture, Azula is a product of being raised by Ozai. She knew she was never favored by her mother, and she didn't care because all she needed was Ozai continually praising her for being perfect. If you watch her scenes with Zuko, you can see that she does seem to care about him in some way. Especially in the scenes on Ember island.
@Mister Extraordinary She was 14. idt any main teen character was over 16
I always assumed that Aang would've taken her bending as well as the Fire Lord's. She was clearly still a danger to others and herself since she was able to spit fire like a dragon.. and was insane and on an emotional rollercoaster.
Fr! the girl could breath immense fire from her breath alone like I would be scared of her too
It probably would’ve destroyed her even more mentally
She was still young and with help she could’ve possibly recovered
With all due respect the best thing is to write to creators Brian and Mike as well Gene the writer of the comics as to why they did not make Aang take away bending of Azula. You will get no clearer answers as to why Azula did not have her bending removed than from creators themselves.
@@normalhuman9878 Yeah, I'd have love to have seen Aang take away her powers, but I'm not sure I'd want to see Azula break down even harder than she did when Katara and Zuko beat her.
I cried when azulas mother kissed azula on the cheek when she was sleeping🥺
I personally love Azula’s character. The badass blue fire. The insanity. The cold-bloodedness. The laugh. Everything. She’s perfect.
She kinda remainders me of Jade from Victorious only if she had powers and crap lol
Ikr I freaking love her character
uhh u do u I guess
She would be my favourite if she wasn’t mental
The sound effect
i didn’t know azula was younger than zuko. she always gave me older sister vibes
I didn’t know which, but I thought she was older
Azula talks mature than Zuko because the way she was raised while Zuko talks like what teenagers do. Even Azula called her big brother, "Little Zuzu."
i didn’t know who was older but i thought azula was at least 16 not 14
she said once in the show something like that she wanted zuko to die cuz then she'd be the fire lord (cause he's older) but i still never really realized how zuko acts like a teen and she acts like an adult
yeah I thought Zuko was younger or they were twins or something.
Azula is still my favorite character even after watching the series when I was 9. She was adored by one of her parents and convinced she was hated by the other. One parent encouraged her to bully and one told her off. One was the embodiment of evil, the other a descendant of one who was supposed to make peace. Their family was split in two, I don’t blame her for being insane. How was she supposed to know which parent to believe?
The title of This video: The Life of Azula: What Happened After the Series?
Half of his video: narration of the series
“You miscalculated, I love Zuko more than I fear you.” -Mai
Imo I think this means more than what I originally thought. It’s not just Mai declaring her love for Zuko, it’s her confirming that they aren’t friends. By saying that she feared her it implies that she recognizes what their relationship was. Not only was it badass but a significant point in the series. I think this was the moment that set Azula off. Realizing she had no real friends and using fear over trust lead to her paranoia. By choosing fear over trust in her relationships she dug her own grave. Just my personal thoughts.
Just finished a rewatch of the series and this is DEFINITLEY the point she starts to unravel. Usually she’s calm and precise, but when Mai said that she FLIPPED SHIT
I agree. Her craziness went off the edge when she realized she had lost the hold she had over her two friends especially because of Zuko.
I think it also has to do with her mom "loving" Zuko more too. Remember she confessed how she believes her mom felt about her back on the island.
Yes...she was slipping after that..I think zuko would win on the last agni kai with azula if azula had not try to strike katara with a lightning
Also the fact that Mai said that proves that she thought Azula was stupid
Azula: “My own mother thought that I was a monster.”
Few years later: **Actually becomes a monster**
Me: **an intellectual**
Iroh-nic
More like iroh-nic

Look at the person above you.
This was the first video I ever watched from the channel and now it’s one of my favorites
This was amazing, thank you for answering my questions 🙌🏽❤️🔥
Avatar is why Nickelodeon is still something
Slikkeri doubt that.
Slikkeri you said what had to be said
You mean WAS something.. Nick has died down, most of the cartoon channels have died down since the art and comedy has changed, there’s not a lot of deep and interesting shows anymore with long stories
.....Then that 2010 Live Action shitstain happened. (**coughs**), and Nick became shit.
Although Legend of Korra was a good follow-up series.
I agree and disagree at the same time avatar:the last air game did save nickelodeon but the legend of korra destroyd it
I love how the main antagonist’s 14 year old daughter is more terrifying than himself 🔥
Yes
Yah!! He has hidden his face until Season 3 ! The good thing is that there are no ugly bad guys in the series!😬😳
Zutara Forever 👏🏻👏🏻 I couldn’t agree more
@@unicorny2233 thanks😍
She looks like 20
Mai and Zuko in the fountain seemed more like she was getting her friend’s crush to save her
I keep forgetting that azula is 14
Not gonna lie from an adult perspective now, I actually feel bad for Azula’s character She was 14, 14! Poor girl was in deep need of help 😞...
She was always a psychopath
she just needed some lovin 😔
She is a bitch
@@giannivandecasteele5267 there's no need to insult
@@lieeragnvindr no she is that
Azula: "Look Zuko I think it's your honor!"
Zuko: "Where?!"
* Azula escapes *
BackFatFairy fake news!
BackFatFairy best play ever
😭😭😭
My favourite moment 😂😂😂
Doesn’t)t Azula call Zuko ‘Zu-Zu’ ?
I think its also worth mentioning that Zuko had Iroh as well. If only Azula had something like an Iroh and not just her shit dad...
thanks for dubbing some of the comics i love your videos :)
*Azula in Book 2:* 😏
*Azula in Book 3:* 🤪
Azula in the comic: 😤😤😡😡😡😭😭😭😭😭😥😥🤪🤪🤪🤪😭😭
*Azula in Book 1:*
Hahaha
Why is this SO funny
Azula in book fou- nevermind
Banishment was the best thing that happened to Zuko. Without his mother to guide him, he would have turned as bad as Azula.
Nah, she's been evil her whole life, she was just born evil, zuko wasn't.
@@Hostefar she wasn't. She was a product of her own environment.
@@Hostefar nope, its a cause of her enviorement
@@Hostefar she wasn't born evil, it was the environment
@@Hostefar Dude she had a father who was praising her for every evil thing she did as a child instead of scolding her. What did you expect to turn good?
I always wondered what happened to her after the last episode, thanks for the video!
Azula is literally a psychopath
No remorse
Manipulative
Don’t know what’s wrong and what’s right
Wants power
That’s just sad
Katara be acting like she's the only one with family issues, when pretty much everyone has
@Just me irohs son, azula never got love from her mother, even momo and appa lost their family
thats true but everyone reacts to pain differently. ik she isn't the only one w family issues but she clearly took it worse than the others
Ikr anng lost his whole race his only family, sokka her brother also lost his mother his girlfriend also turned into the moon , zuko got banished from his own nation and mother had to leave him for her children's safety, toph wasn't allowed to go outside her house cause her parents were over protective, azula became mentally ill a lot and always felt that her own mother was plotting against her
That’s kinda shitty of you to say when Katara is trying to deal with grief. Imagine someone close to you died, of course you’d be hurt. I know it’s a commonly running joke but it’s rude and offensive. You can’t blame her for being sad about her mother’s death, if this is her way of dealing with grief so be it. You can woosh me or whatever, but it makes sense...
Just me I know but still
My favourite line of hers was: ''Since you can't see I should tell you! I'm rolling my eyes'' Pure savagery 😂
Original493 hahaha I remember when she said that to Toph
Then Toph said, “I’ll roll your whole head!!!!!”
"Oh, rolling your whole head!"
@Hassky1 umm you better not be referring to Azula's brain because it was clear she was a genius as most Sociopaths are
Luna if Azula got love from both parents and Zuko did too, they would probably be a happy family and Azula would be much less mental.
Hey! You forgot, that after she said "My own mother thought I was a monster. " She said " Of course she was right but it still hurt. "
2:04 that is so sad, their mom noticed that when ever Zuko was doing something he liked his eyes got a twinkle and look at her eyes and what she is doing
When she told mai that she should have “feared me more” all I could hear was “you should have loved me more” ty lee chi blocking her was the breaking point. That was all azula had left. She had serious attachment issues because she didn’t have one healthy stable relationship in her entire life, her way of desperately clinging to mai and ty lee was with the only thing she knew how to do. Manipulate and instill fear to make them never dare to leave her. Her childhood consisted of her making zuko and their mother the object of her hatred. She couldn’t bring herself to hate her father because, even if he didn’t show her real love at least he was proud of her and at least he acknowledged her. So that became her goal. To serve her father and gain power like his. During her paranoid episodes as fire lord she constantly thought he didn’t trust her enough, and she went mad over it. Suddenly she couldn’t trust any one with anything because she believed they would eventually betray her like ty lee and mai. She wasn’t born that way, of course she was molded into a monster at a very young age but if she had someone like zuko had iroh and his mother, she wouldn’t be nearly as damaged as she is now. It just goes to show that gifted children have a huge weight on their shoulders to continue living up to their own high expectations as it is, perfectionism and her own fear destroyed her.
E X A C T L Y
I think so too
perfect, non biased explanation. Thank you for not writing this from an overly sympathetic and victimizing the villain standpoint (like most Azula “fans” do.)
Underrated comment. Couldn’t have said it better
My dad to me:Why the fuck you crying so damn loud
When Zuko and Azula fell, Zuko had his friends to catch him but Azula did not. She didn't die tho. She saved herself. From then on, it seemed like that was the metaphor of how her life would be like. Her and her alone, surviving and conquering.
thats how villain was born am i right? even in real life. ie the one who got bullied in school shooting xD
It is actually pretty sad because nobody loved her only those 2 girls loved her and when they betrayed her nobody loved Azula and no human can live without love so she was having a really bad breakdown so she started crying and i was feeling bad
Dg_06 did they actually love her though?? Ty Lee only left the circus to join Azula because she realized that Azula would keep coming back to the circus she performs in and keep trying to kill her in her circus acts if she didn’t end up eventually leaving. And Mai even said in one episode she “loves Zuko more than she fears Azula”, indicating that she was never on Azula’s side/“friends” with Azula because she actually liked Azula. It was in the episode where Zuko and Sokka break into the high security prison in the fire nation to rescue Sokka’s dad.
@B Ball ozai like her
Every one stop fighting about Zuko and Azula
the way Nickelodeon created characters in this series is mind boggling. thank you, nick, for giving us such a great show
This video be like: She was sad for her missing attention
5 sec later: She failed a cartwheel
Not gonna lie when Azula went insane I was scared
She never went crazy, she was always crazy, she was just in a position where she could control her life’s events, psychopaths suppress their instability by controlling everything they can when they lose that control the instability comes forth to the extreme
Carmel Tebyani yeah, I really did pity her
Yeah me too
@Breanna Clement say wwwwhhhhhhhhaaaawwttttttttt
ME TOO!!!!!
I hate azula but don’t get me wrong she IS NOT a bad character she kinda badass with her trio

bro that background music gives me the chills

"My own mother thought i was a monster"
*"She was right of course but it* *still hurt"*
Edit:for the people who don't have an encyclopedia of the series and have more important things to remember than a random line in the beach episode Azula said the line to clear up some of the confusion
I dont know if you said this ironicly or with feeling bad but if you were joking I can say it hurts even trought they are right about you being a monster *really it kills you inside*
@@966aAad no it's a line in the beach episode witch azula says
xD
Jeez, she had no idea how right she was.
@@966aAad uhhhh it isn't me making fun of her it was a line she said
this reminds me of It's Okay to Not Be Okay. treatment from early childhood does build the foundation of someone as a person..
honestly as the former "gifted child" of my family I relate to Azula way too much
Book 4: Air
Should had been a prologue mini series after the show ended, to tie up lose ends instead of leaving it to comics.
Fr I’m not watching that shit about how avatar died
You mean.. an epilogue?
Itss Sushi old age
Did u watch that video from slice of otaku too 😔✊
yea but instead we got that movie that was a total piece of crap
So basically Azula is what Zuko would’ve became if he didn’t have Iroh or his mother.
Not exactly since she always lacked empathy and remorse while he has shown both throughout his life.
I think ozai is what zuko would become without iroh or his mother because of the parallels between him and his dad
Marble Taco that empathy came from what his mother taught him, she put her focus into raising Zuko as a good person while the fire lord turned his daughter into a psychopath
I would disagree. They’re very different people. Zuko is a prime example of a troubled kid who is primarily a good person under all of the anger. But Azula is a whole different thing. She was ready to take down anyone in her way even her own blood
@Lohen grin I feel for more as she rejected love. People always blame the mom for getting mad at her psychotic tendencies, but I was happy about it as she is the only one who cared enough about her to actually reject these horrible actions she does.
I’ve always wondered if Azusa really felt the need for her mother’s approval or if she just needed to be the best in everyone’s eyes, but I think the screen with the mirror as she unraveled proves the first theory 💭
it really does hurt to realize when you get a little older that ty lee and mai were the only people holding Azula together
Their betrayal at the boiling rock was definitely the starting point to her breakdown
