This fight sucked

Because he hates gay people

1. Took way too long to properly introduce him, Zuko is the main villain in season 1
2. When Zuko's redemption story gets going, Azula is already a way more interesting villain than Ozai

Honestly without the bending it looks like they're dancing. Which I guess was the point of that scene with Aang and Katara in season 3.

Why did Ozai look surprised ?
This would have worked so much better if Aang shot the lightning back at Ozai and Ozai surprise redirected it because he picked it up from Zuko.

>Why did Ozai look surprised ?
It would be completely in character for Ozai to be such an arrogant fuck that he thought only someone who shared his blood could master such an advanced technique, so even with Zuko being the family fuckup he could rationalize it without hurting his ego. Also Iroh learned how to redirect it by studying waterbending, which is why Aang picked it up so easily. The idea of drawing on knowledge of the lesser nations would have never occurred to Ozai.

imagine being the actors who will have to act this out in live action without making it look goofy

sounds like a good excuse to make ozai extremely boring teebeehaytch desu.

Okay so is gohan but he knew the world is more important than his political opinions. Aang is a beta

Aang's pacifism is a part of his own culture for which he was the only living member.

Gohan needed to see someone get killed in front of him to break out of his bitchness, I guarantee Aang would've done the same if Ozai had killed someone in front of him.

Okay and ? Even the air avatar told him it's okay to kill. Why is he such a bitch

>why didn't he kill?
Its a kids show on Nickelodeon?

He was trying to capture Ozai without hurting him so he could force the fire nation to surrender without using murder as a mean to achieve his goals, the problem is that Ozai was way more powerful than he expected forcing him to stay in the defensive until he could find an opening what never happened.

Fucking brainlet can't understand the fucking message even though it was clear to 12 year olds.

Don't get me wrong, it would be more interesting if Ozai figured out lightning redirection just from watching Zuko do it once. He comes across as sort of a jobber compared to Iroh and Azula and establishing him as so brilliant that he instantly understood a technique from about a second of watching it would make him that much more dangerous.

>He was trying to capture Ozai without hurting him
Which was dumb because he admitted he probably wasn't ready to face Ozai before the comet. It's a massive jump from that to "I can probably subdue him without hurting him". He couldn't even beat Zuko on the beach with those conditions, he had to blast him out a window.

This. Aang kills tons of people throughout the show but they never have names or faces so it's ok (except for Zhao I guess but that's a grey area).

Azula really should've been the final boss that overthrew Ozai. Its a tired and worn trope but it really would work here. Zuko gets his big battle with Ozai in the Day of Black Sun, wins, but then goes to help Iroh like he tried in the actual story. Then Azula kills Ozai in his weakened state for being too weak and claims the title of Fire Lord herself.

Its a fitting end to the story of Ozai and his children. Zuko faces the one responsible for all his suffering and chooses not to kill him, similar to how he spared Zhao, while Ozai ends up getting backstabbed the same way Azulon did, once again the second-born taking the throne while the rightful first-born Zuko is shafted.

>the problem is that Ozai was way more powerful than he expected
He wasn't, Aang knew he can't handle him, it's literally stated in the first part of the finale. That's why they planned to take him 6 on 1 and even then Sokka expected his refusal to kill would screw everything up. Note that the plan wasn't to fight during the Comet which puts Aang at more of a disadvantage. If anything, Ozai is far weaker than they expected.

>Which was dumb because he admitted he probably wasn't ready to face Ozai before the comet. It's a massive jump from that to "I can probably subdue him without hurting him". He couldn't even beat Zuko on the beach with those conditions, he had to blast him out a window.

Aang had mastered fire bending so he expected to be able to defeat him just like Ozai did to Sozin but this time in front of everyone to destroy the Fire Nation morale and force them to surrender.

Azula is 14. Why would she kill her father and try to become Fire Lord? There was also no foreshadowing for her wanting to overthrow him.

The trope of the Dragon killing the Big Bad only works if the Dragon has been shown to be dissatisfied with the Big Bad. It doesn't work if they're trying to do everything they can to please the Big Bad.

>Aang had mastered fire bending so he expected to be able to defeat him
No, Aang says point blank that he's not ready to fight Ozai and that trying to do it during Sozin's Comet would be a bad idea. The only reason he decides to fight Ozai is Zuko telling him about Ozai's plan to turn the Earth Kingdom into a continent-sized Dresden.

>Aang had mastered fire bending so he expected to be able to defeat him
You're not only headcanoning, but also explicitly contradicting what was stated. Zuko said his firebending is still lacking and he himself admitted he can't beat Ozai alone.

>Azula really should've been the final boss that overthrew Ozai.
I don't know, Azula is the better villain but she's just as desperate for Ozai's approval as Zuko, it just comes more naturally to her. Overthrowing Ozai isn't something that really fits her character. I think you'd need Ozai to first totally fuck her over in some way to get her to fly into a rage. Maybe if Ozai starts openly favoring Zuko over her when he returns to the Fire Nation or something.

Katara should of killed Ozai

>Don't get me wrong, it would be more interesting if Ozai figured out lightning redirection just from watching Zuko do it once.

thats pretty much my whole argument lad glad we can come to an agreement

Azula is not a person with true ulterior motives. She does what she does for love, not knowing any better.
