@LuciaLobosvilla@goodguybandaid@kenny_gng Since she blocked me I'll respond here for her next post:
She only brought Zuko back so she can torment him all to herself. Afterall, she lied to her father so she could control Zuko. None of this screams "I love you!" lol. More of her manipulative personality.
@LuciaLobosvilla@goodguybandaid@kenny_gng Elijah might've given up on you but I wont! What you're missing here is that Azula wouldn't risk her life to save anyone but herself. She uses people as meat shields and people she can control. She was NEVER redeemed btw. Zuko is the opposite of her, he's no psycho.
@kenny_gng Unfortunately, it's normal to be cruel when you're at war. Azula is cruel to her own family, not only her enemies - that's the difference. Azula isn't only happy the fire nation decimates its enemy; she is happy to see her own brother's face melt off.
@azulaservant@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu No, she's a great character. It's good to have strong evil/cruel characters so the good guys can beat them in the end. Azula was a strong fighter and quick learner. But she learned relationships via her father - through fear and lack of empathy.
@azulaservant@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu So, you do know how to make arguments. I'll give you that I used psychopath in the layman sense. That's not my argument though. I'm talking about who's personality is more cruel/evil - that's Azula. Swap any average person with Iroh and they repeat his war actions.
@LuciaLobosvilla@ameixaAmeixa@uukhanu She favors fear rather than love, that's why she's so cruel and Zuko isn't. Zuko was just another fire nation solider, what he did is what anyone else would do in that situation. Azula was taught to choose fear over love - which is what she did to the people around her.
@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu You're interpreting that "open to interpretation" letter he sent to Zuko and Azula, no? It's never been confirmed that he was laughing directly at people being burned alive. Azula was 14 btw lol. Give her time she'd have done things far worse than mere war.
@LuciaLobosvilla@ameixaAmeixa@uukhanu She was absolutely cruel "for fun". Cruelty was just another Tuesday for Azula. Look at her gleeful face as her brother's face melts away. She was taught that - it's not necessarily her fault she's that way I'll give you that. But that's who she became.
@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu Iroh's actions are what a normal person does indoctrinated in a bad system. If Azula had been in Iroh's place she would've caused a plethora more pain and misery just for fun - because that's in her character. Iroh was indoctrinated - Azula is a psycho.
@LuciaLobosvilla@azulaservant@uukhanu Sad you can't see the difference there. Azula came to him to kill him and the Avatar, why the fuck wouldn't he be happy the person about to murder him was about to not be able to murder him anymore? You really didn't think this through. I didn't make my X page about a psycho lol.
@LuciaLobosvilla@ameixaAmeixa@uukhanu Yes, she was a victim of her Dad who rewarded her cruelty. Both of them were indoctrinated by a bad system but Zuko retained his moms love - Azula did not. Azula was cruel for fun - can't say the same for Zuko or Iroh.
@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu She was never redeemed, so that's an irrelevant point. She enjoyed tormenting her brother among many other people - not a quality you'll find in Iroh or most people. Her version of relationships were fear driven, not love driven.
@azulaservant@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu Definitely a non-argument response from an Azula fan. She was pretty gleeful watching her brother's face melt in front of her - weird that you'd be a fan of someone like that.
@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu Even if the creators were "open" to an Azula redemption arc - she was objectively crueler in context to what power she had and her age. Swap Iroh out with Azula in that war and she commits war atrocities that make everything Iroh did look like nothing.
@ameixaAmeixa@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu By that rationale - everyone in the Fire nation was a bad person, which just isn't true. They were normal good people indoctrinated into a bad system. That is very different than Azula - who was a cruel person even to her own family.
@GriN_Smyler@SheevTalks There's no reason to believe his life would've been ruined. There was a fucking tornado, it's a lot less likely he would've been seen. His dad just stood there and took it, he had time to at least make an attempt to run and not stand there like an idiot. Good movie, bad scene.
@LuciaLobosvilla@uukhanu Missed the point on Iroh's character. He was a good person indoctrinated in a bad system, Azula was a bad person indoctrinated in a bad system. Those things you listed were just results of indoctrination, culture and war. Azula is just a psychopath who can't form connections.
@uukhanu Swap any good person out with Iroh and his war atrocities and they repeat them - because it's war and they're indoctrinated. Azula? She would've gleefully slaughtered anyone for simply disrespecting her - even her own. Please don't compare them, they aren't even close.
