Sibling rivalry! Fire versus fire and lightning! Sparks have flown!

I'm alittle effy on the way Zuko was displayed in has spar with Azula on ep. 21. I know he certainly is not that weak >.< Maybe her prescence dimmed his confidence, but I know he could have done better. A wee bit dissapointed there...

Well, I think it was mostly to show how strong she was compared to him, but I kinda see what you're saying. I think he was too driven by anger and hate for him to be fully into it. Anger and hate cloud judgement and reason.... it leads to the Dark Side XD

Well, Azula is a prodigy. And Sakura's right, Zuko was full of anger and hate. Of course, this was probably done so that Zuko could fight her again and win...

^_^ Yup! Maybe he'll have better control over himself.... control helps rather than hinders, unlike anger and hate.

I understand the whole 'anger decreases ability to fully function' thing, but I strongly oppose that in Zuko's case. From what I've seen up to now, he does better in a hissy mood. Then again, he's usually in a hissy mood and I'd say he's great o.o Unless he's cowering under Azula... but wouldn't he want to prove himself? *scratches head* erm...

I think it's a subconsious thing. *gets weird looks from people* I'm not a psychiatrist, guys! I'm just saying that she's family. And any way you look at it, Zuko refuses to really hurt family. Well, now I don't know cause of the whole "Im not with you anymore" thing, but still! Or the fact that he probably hasn't done any firebending in like, a month could have something to do with it! ^^

In my opinion... I like Azula as in I think she rocks because I admire her for being a pure evil girl villian... I didnt like the whole totally tricking him and messing with his mind... but anyhow I was very disappointed in Zuko's attempt when he was fighting her... I mean, he should have gotten at least 2 or more hits off of her.

Zuko and Azula? I somehow doubt that there ever was a real relationship there...well besides the slightly jealous, sad, hurt, and angry thing on Zuko's part, and a what a waste of bending ability and you're a useless weakling thoughts on Azula's behalf. As far as evil Villains go, I like Azula. she seems to be a great villainess so kudos to her, but I hate her for how she is to her brother...family's family and nothing should break that kind of love and bond, so curses to both Azula and Ozai for their poor family skills. thats all from me.....or IS it?? *looks around room and laughs then leaves*

I think we all love to hate Azula. She is one bad villian, and plus, to make her even more evil, she knows all of Zuko's weaknesses... *shudders* Azula can definately send shivers down my spine...(>< her nails are creepy...)
And yes, I also do agree that Zuko didn't put up much of a fight with Azula, but can you blame him? I think we already knew that Azula was a prodigy at firebending and, well...Zuko isn't quite "up-to-standards" with her when it comes to fighting. Of course, I think he could have done a little better with the fight, but the entire episode felt rushed to me anyways...

*nodnod* It did seem a bit rushed, but I think it's better once you've seen it a few times... *huggles Tivo*
I think Azula's going to be the new Zhao. I'm actually looking forward to more Azula/Zuko confrontation. I don't think they've ever had a loving bro-sis relationship:
"You lied to me!" "Like I've never done that before."
I think now is just the latest of a continued sibling rivalry. I'm thinking since Azula was the golden child, Zuko was always a bit jealous, especially when Azula flaunted it.

I actually thought Azula rocked. ......except for her being mean to Zuzu. ^^U
I'd also like to see more Zuko/Azula confrontation. It could be very interesting. ^^
I'd also like to see Aang and the gang ( heh, I love that ^^) run into her.

*rolls eyes* Oh boy. Here we go with the "I love Azula" thing. I HATE her!!!! She, pardon me, SUCKS!!!! She's a preppy firebender! I mean, if you're gonna torment someone, do it in a tomboyish method! -_-
