Judge: "Are you trying to argue your client was unable to fully control himself due to temporary insanity?"
Lawyer: "No your honour, I'm arguing my client is unable to make informed decisions because his status as an actor means he's permanently retarded."
it's why Zuko for once ACTUALLY had a chance to beat her in a straight fight, she was 'slipping'.
The music at the start of that final Agni Kai is sublime.

Also for anyone who was paying attention throughout the series you can see just how much control Azula has lost since her first appearances, going from precise two-finger points when firebending to entire fist thrusts. She was an obvious prodigy as seen when her flames turned blue but still ended up losing to both herself and her brother who in the end took firebending to a completely new level by combining his existing skills with the knowledge from both the progenitors of firebending, the dragons, as well as what his uncle taught him who developed novel techniques observing other bending schools. How he moves his body during the Agni Kai highlights this with his fluid movements, like waterbending, his deflections of incoming attacks, like airbending, and then during his own push the unrelenting force behind his attacks, like earthbending.
Also you can't forget,
RUFIO!
She starts off bold, brash, uncaring of others, and downright destructive
And remained that way throughout.
End of season 1: fucks up and loses her powers
End of season 2: fucks up and destroys the Avatar cycle along with the connection to every single previous Avatar from the past thousand years
End of season 3: fucks up and almost destroys the Avatar cycle again, gets poisoned with mercury, chained up with platinum, and forced into the Avatar state so that when killed in such a way the whole cycle dies forever
End of season 4: fucks up and destroys the united city then fucks off to the spirit world avoiding the consequences of her actions yet again
Korra is one of the worst protagonists ever. She accomplishes next to nothing. She wipes out decades of heritage. She never listens to Tenzin. She was horrible to both Mako and Bolin - both of whom deserved far better. She constantly falls in with the wrong people despite being warned otherwise. She almost ends the world at least twice. And she is constantly needing bailed out of her fuckups.
Lesbian badgers confirmed.
Starts? 🤔
