i don’t like it when being pro-palestine is used as a gotcha for stan wars. it shifts the focus onto celebrities when the real light should be shined on the actual people suffering through a genocide. i feel like lots of people online are losing sight of that.
being an azula fan means that even tho you say you want a redemption arc, you dont actually really mean a redemption arc bcus she probably wouldnt want that and she'd just be a zuko 2.0. it just means wanting her to have a maturity and healing arc and to have her find peace
i feel like people have different interpretations of azula's redemption and what it would look like. we're not saying she should have the same storyline as zuko. i think it would be more interesting to see azula go on a healing journey.

Grey DeLisle responds to people who want to give Azula a redemption arc.
“Can we have a villain please? All the villains are disappearing, they all have some backstory.”
“In the Vale, Rhaena had enjoyed a life of comfort and privilege as Lady Jeyne’s ward. Maids had brushed her hair and drawn her baths, whilst singers composed odes to her beauty and knights jousted for her favor.”
meanwhile hotd:
“I have to forgive myself too” probably the most emotional line in the entire franchise. Aang spent his life showing mercy and forgiveness to his enemies and to the world at large, the only person that never received his forgiveness was himself, it’s so gut wrenching
I can’t help but think that the general audience will sympathize with Daeron more than they ever did with Alicent even tho they’ve been through the exact same thing and if he starts to make some bad decisions they’ll make excuses for him when Alicent never got that grace
