You Fools, Barbie And Oppenheimer Are The Same Thing, Not He Opposite Ends Of The Spectrum.

I have a feeling Azula would absolutely love Britney Spears

You have been waiting for Jesus to reincarnate while I have been here this whole time -

The Supreme Fire Lady Azula

But the trees they dance Men trærne de danser And the waterfalls stop Og fossene stanser When she sings, she sings Når hun synger, hun synger Come home Kom hjem But the trees they dance Men trærne de danser And the waterfalls stop Og fossene stanser When she sings she sings come home When she sings she sings come home When she sings she sings come home When she sings she sings come home But the trees they dance Men trærne de danser And the waterfalls stop Og fossene stanser When she sings, she sings Når hun synger, hun synger Come home Kom hjem But the trees they dance Men trærne de danser And the waterfalls stop Og fossene stanser

When she sings she sings come home When she sings she sings come home In stormy black mountains I hike alone I stormsvarte fjell jeg vandrer alene I cross the glacier Over isbreen tar jeg meg frem In the apple orchard the maiden stands the vein I eplehagen står møyen den vene And sings: when are you coming home? Og synger: når kommer du hjem?

But the trees they dance Men trærne de danser And the waterfalls stop Og fossene stanser When she sings, she sings Når hun synger, hun synger Come home Kom hjem But the trees they dance Men trærne de danser And the waterfalls stop Og fossene stanser

When she sings she sings come home When she sings she sings come home

Azula does her signature mocking laugh. "Well, Under which rock do you live in? Which powerful Leader doesn't know me? Anyways, This isn't about me, Its about my complaints against your....(attempts to say) ....brother, Troh or whatever you call him." (makes a disgusted face)

Salutations, fellow powerful leader. You should be aware of who I am.

Loki looked at the woman with a quizzical gaze. He raised an eyebrow before a giving his head a slight shake. “Should I? Because I’m not.”

Tell me something I didn't need to know

I don't even know why i keep talking about ATLA on tiktok, they are the most annoying people I have ever seen in my life. Literally had someone telling me to go read the comics because according to them ZUKO taught Azula how to redirect lightining

Then I proceeded to explain that she learned by herself by watching him do it the person kept saying that he TAUGHT HER

Yeah. Like this Zuko

would ever sit down with his sister to teach her how to redirect lightining

LMAO I THINK IM GOING CRAZY THIS IS NOT SERIOUS?

I HAVE FOUND THIS MASTERPIECE

So, How does it feel like to be a living legend?

I'm just gonna leave this here-

Azula And The Tides: The Most Misread Scene in ATLA

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before:

“The tides scene shows how irrational and spoiled Azula is! She got lucky! She endangered her whole crew for her pride!”

Or any similar variation.

The only problem is it’s not even remotely close to true. Let’s talk about that.

Here is the scene in question for reference:

Seems pretty straightforward, right? I mean, the Captain warned Azula about the tides and she put her ego before reason and made the crew take a huge risk. Horrible leadership and narcissism on her part, right?

Except for one little detail.

Azula was right.

Remember in “The Storm” when Zuko demands his ship chase after the Avatar and his crew warns him that it’s a fool’s errand because they’ll surely perish in the storm? Zuko stubbornly insists his goals are more important than anyone else’s lives, including his Uncle, and demands they drive recklessly into the storm. Sure enough, the crew nearly perishes in the storm, just as predicted, and Zuko is humbled enough to even rescue his Lieutenant that he disrespected earlier in the episode.

I bring this up so we understand how ATLA sets up and then demonstrates its narrative cause and effect. It’s rather straightforward as, after all, this is being written to be inteligible to children.

So what happens with Azula’s ship when she demands they dock right away despite her Captain’s warnings?

The ship docks without incident or injury.

In fact, they dock stealthily enough that neither Zuko nor Iroh see Azula coming and she’s able to surprise them. How would this be possible if the Captain had been correct in his assessment and Azula had just been acting out of ego?

I’ve seen some people argue that Azula just got lucky, like a drunk person driving home in a car. Not that I expect the average person to have extensive knowledge about docking a ship, but it demonstrates a severe gap in knowledge of the subject matter. When it comes to the tides you cannot half-ass it. Either the tides are in or they’re not. Either they’re high enough or they’re not.

And if they’re not, what happens? The rocks you can’t see beneath the waves will shred your ship apart and you will get stuck or outright sink. Best case scenario, if by an act of divine intervention you avoided all the rocks, you’re still screwed because your ship is going to get beached and tip over. Especially with a ship of that size!

You cannot squeak by here. Even with all of our tech and modern day ships, if you don’t respect the tides, you’re going to have a bad time. There is no avoiding this.

It boggles my mind why people assume Azula is the one in the wrong here and not the Captain who is later shown to be so incompetent that he spoils the mission. He was talking down to her and she rightfully put in his place. Cold and ruthless as her method may have been, she was making it clear that she is not to be talked down to or to have her authority questioned. An important skill for a young leader. Look at the comparison with Zuko who couldn’t wrangle his men. They were about to mutiny and would’ve if Iroh hadn’t intervened! Azula has no Iroh to fall back on. She has to manage on her own. And she does! In this same episode we are shown that Azula is a perfectionist who can’t tolerate a single hair out of place. But somehow we are supposed to believe she is also reckless and incompetent? I don’t think so.

We also know that Azula canonically attended the Royal Fire Academy for girls. This wasn’t some preppy finishing school, it was an intense military academy with survival training so deadly that Rangi described having to eat worse than rats to make it out alive. We know Azula excelled in school. Why wouldn’t she know something as basic as how to read the tides? That’s seafaring 101.

Combine that with the fact that all their best naval officers probably perished at the North Pole and it’s easy to glean that this Captain isn’t exactly their A-Team.

So what IS the point of this scene if not to show Azula being irrational, egotistical, or incompetent?

Remember our comparisons to Zuko? The point of this scene is to show how much better and scarier of a leader Azula is. It’s a simple way to convey to the audience that unlike Zuko, Azula *can* and *does* command like a true military leader. She is therefor a more frightening and dangerous opponent for our heroes to face than the already dangerous Prince they’ve been battling since the previous season.

I don’t think this misinterpretation would’ve ever spread so far if some fans weren’t dead set on trying to tear down Azula for the simple crime of being better at things than fan-favorite Zuko.

And I say this as someone who adores Zuko.
