Peak character development! He became obsessed with going home to a family that hated him, had to learn the hard way to figure out who HE was and what he wanted in life. Figured out what he wanted to do, pursued it and not only saved to world but redeemed himself in the process!
That wasn’t Aang’s “helicopter kick,” that’s one of Zuko’s signature moves in the show, which is also a nod toward his VA, Dante Basco, who breakdances
It took me watching the series like 20 times to realize that zuko and Aang’s stories are completely paralleled. They both had to grieve the loss of their bloodlines, they both struggled with making the right choice and committing to their path rather than running away, they both had to learn from all nations like you say. They both “died” to who they were (zuko going through sickness and loss of ego while aang literally died both in the same season), they both had strong ties to the previous avatar! Probably a lot more but it’s really brilliant writing tbh to have the antagonist and protagonist reflect each other to eventually help towards each other’s destinies
Not to mention it's a like a repeat of the past but made better in the end, and has a unthought family tie, Avatar Roku was best friends with the past fire lord but it didn't end well and caused the war, then in the next generation Zuko becomes the fire lord and becomes friends with Aang the new Avatar and end the war in peace, but technically Zuko is also fighting along side his great grandfather Roku, since Roku is Aang's past life and is still connected to Aang, I love how much Zuko has a strong tie to the Avatar destiny despite not being the Avatar, but shows how important Zuko was too

Uncle Iroh explained that he got the idea of redirecting lightning from waterbenders so basically Zuko did use a waterbending style during his fight with Azula.
The thing is he wasn't able to do the redirecting technique when he went to do the redirecting technique against azula she did it to Katara so when he went to block it he lost his balance and got hit so he wasn't able to use the waterbending technique since he got hit

What his uncle explained was everyone has the power to take from every element to make their abilities near unstoppable measures. This is why his uncle was literally the most powerful fire bender the world has ever seen. He teaches us that you must learn from everything you see and make it a part of you in order to not only learn but master any task or challenge that comes your way
@@AmanKumar-hz7tsindeed he is, but to further caviot on this notion; Iroh was a high council member of the White Lotus "basically a high ranking Freemason", and had friends from all of the other nations. There's no telling how long they had been around or how long they were friends. But, this is without question why I believe Iroh gained the title "Dragon of the West" due to the unique discipline he created my mastering different techniques from the benders of other elements. He literally knew all their forms, created counters, and used forms from rival nations using his element to combat foes he should've otherwise been weak too! And everything Zuko learned, he learned from him. Making Zuko not an avatar, but a next master of Irohs unique craft.
@@SyriaVeteran his name is the dragon because during the one of attacks on the earth nation, iroh was breathing fire while fighting as a general for the fire nation
Each of the elements corresponds to a key characteristic necessary for personal development. The elements are paired as opposites because you have to be balanced in everything. Air/earth: one must be light, unattached, and unburdened while remaining firmly rooted in your principles and commitments. Water/fire: one must be fluid, adaptable, and unbothered while maintaining tenacity and a fighting spirit to accomplish ones goals. The show is literally just an allegory for becoming a fully developed person.
It actually makes a lot of sense. He was raised to believe that power was everything. He needed to be strong to prove himself. Beyond that he was being fed the narrative that everyone was below his family. You're not going to be invested in remembering the name an unimportant person.
Almost 20 years ago Avatar came out. I was 21, loved it. And all these years later there is still a love for the show but people always pointing out super cool stuff that makes each watch through more enjoyable.
I knew that he was to learn that but the fights happen so fast you don’t notice, it’s crazy how his learning is reflected through his combat and it’s nice to see it side by side to where he learned it.
The "helicopter kick" is one of Zukos signature moves. He doesn't have this one from Aang. If I remember it correctly, he used it first in his agni Kai with Zhao.
@@Dom-Andre He learned the concept of using other elements as inspiration in book 2 but used the helicopter kick in book 1 already. As I said, it's HIS signature move. I imagine that he came up with it himself. Zuko wasn't considered a good firebender by his family but I think he just had an unorthodox style to begin with. Maybe Iroh encouraged him to develop his style but I don't think that he straight up teached him moves like the helicopter kick, especially since he isn't the acrobatic type himself.
How can a human create such a masterpiece as this but now days it’s all the same show just with different color actors. To this day nothing has surpassed this in my mind.
@@kalliope420 Yess. Does Toph have any moments of borrowing other bender styles? I know she can't see them, but I wonder if she could have sensed some movement patterns, as long as they were on the ground
@@justalex8502 im not sure. i feel like i saw it in all of them but i'd have to rewatch to really know. i definitely think its just as possible for toph like everyone else as her whole thing is really paying attention to her opponents movements
@@justalex8502 there is maybe something there when she starts working with the meteorite, she bends it in a very fluid sort of way. its also possible she employs waterbending techniques when she improves her sandbending, considering sand can act like a fluid, but i cant remember actually seeing that specifically
He learned the hard way that he was going about things the wrong way in life and in turn realized he needed to befriended the avatar and help restore balance to the world
Zuko remembering what Iroh taught him about using other bending techniques with the lightening redirection technique is what gave him the edge over Azula in their fight, along with her mental state being what it was. He kept his movements to minimum much like Toph’s earth bending. His stance allowed him to keep his footing and allowed him to counter Azula’s moves. Had Azula not targeted Katara, Zuko would have won.
It's not just Zuko. Katara uses an earth stance in her fight with Hama. She stops a giant water attack by holding her ground like an earth bender rather then the push and pull of a water bender. When Katara does this, it cuts away to Hama being shocked.
I love that all of them at some point start to use each other's techniques for their own bending and I think that's just so cool, and very telling of their abilities and their connection too since they all end up spending a lot of time together
i love that it also underpinns visually the very essence of the lessons this show was trying to promote that through learning and understanding of each other and our differences taking little pieces on board along the way we ultimately all become better off as a society
I could write a thousand word essay on this show and still have more to talk about. The character development of each character is off the charts and the details are crazy I love this show so much. The Agni Kai between Azusa and Zuko was one of the most beautiful scenes I’ve ever seen, the way Zuko bends and the powerful insanity of Azula is just amazing to watch. If I could go back and watch a whole series for the first time again I would pick it to be ATLA every time
I hadn’t noticed this, it’s amazing just how detailed this show is. Even to this day I’m still learning things about the show that really add another layer of depth to how I view the show.
Fun fact: A very similar thing happened with Sokka. He was raised as a warrior by his father (Southern Water Tribe). He learned be humble and respect his opponent from the Kyoshi Warriors (Earth Kingdom). He learned to think his way out of a problem by the Mechanist (not really the Air Nomads, but they have similar mentalities so it counts). He was given some training by Chef Arnook and fought alongside him (Northern Water Tribe). And he learned swordsmanship from Piandao (Fire Nation) Pretty cool, right?
He learned how to fight from Suki, his girlfriend and Kyoshi Warrior. And also had a spiritual encounter with his other girlfriend that turned into the moon. I have a theory that Sokka would’ve been the Avatar instead of Katara had Aang lived his course of life like he normally should’ve. While it may not make sense because he is a non bender it actually makes full sense at the same time. His inability to bend is actually the result of Aang living longer than he should’ve therefore Sokka wasn’t given the ability to bend anything yet he took on so much responsibility that he shouldn’t have such as basically becoming Chief of his village while his father was gone, learning to fight with the Kyoshi warriors, learning to build the different mechanisms u mentioned with the air nomad type people (in a way Sokka learning these things was the equivalent of him learning the different styles of bending), making contact with the literal moon spirit on top of learning fighting styles from northern water tribe just as u said and the whole learning process he endured with Piandao and making a sword out of a comet which had literal cosmic and spirit energy flowing through it.
@@xxeroxxasxx_653 Your theory basically means that anyone who's done great feats across the world would've been an avatar candidate, if their current avatar's life didn't follow the timeline the way it did. By that logic Iroh, or any other person doing cool things and learning throughout travelling the four nations was supposed to be an avatar, but it didn't happen for the sole reason of it not happening. It's a cool concept, but it really is more of a fanfiction than a theory.
@@4hoofd No u have it wrong my theory is only about Sokka and Sokka only. I mention Sokka being the next reincarnation instead of Katara because 1. Katara ACTUALLY would’ve been the next Avatar after Aang and 2. Both Sokka and Katara are part of the Water tribe which is the exact next thing in the Avatar cycle. Uncle Iroh is literally the furthest thing from being a reincarnation of an Avatar theoretically and literally as far as the cycle goes. And If unless it states it in some written content like comic books or something (I’ve only watched the series so I know little no lore outside of that) then Iroh didn’t go on a journey like that he took inspiration from other cultures but he didn’t exactly explore those cultures and actually be there taught by someone else. The only thing that comes close to that is his time spent within the earth kingdom and his status within the white lotus. Other than that he only fully explored his own culture and learned about becoming spiritual within the real world which is part of the reason he was able to see spirits while he lived. He also understood that violence wasn’t the right way to go about things and that real peace was necessary. And I think his son dying in war along with the fact that his nephew Zuko was related to Roku was what really opened his eyes to what the 4 nations being in harmony meant. Also a theory could absolutely be fan fiction and vice versa.
What I understand from that is that people are better and stronger when they take inspiration and incorporate different cultures into things they do. That's working together and learning from others makes you a more flushed out person. I think that's Zuko's whole character ark and what helps him become someone who isn't so resentful. But I also think it cures his insecurity of being weak/dishonored. Because there's a honor to learning from others
its due to restricting them selves due to a belief or some system that had forced them to think or use one element being the one they are born with into society. after beginning to adapt and learning to fight did alot of the main characters become such a prominant fighting force and use different elements depending on the situation to benefit them. its seen more in the legend of korra in that cage match thing where they re use this concept but in a game instead where u adapt and learn to use ur surroundings and hone in ur skills to improve. the more options u have, the stringer u are and the more versatile u can be in combat or in a fight or in a battle. there were times even korra and aang got bested because they restricted them selves and werent learning from their mistakes and improving until much later where the time called for it.
@@unboxing_legend7708 YEAH. It's that they're bound to "this is our culture/tradition" so it's locking and compartmentalized them into not being able to grow
@@somadrummond6256 i guess u can reflect it on real life as well in ways. ive learned that alot of kids shows actually do have deeper meanings like this often to the parents or adults but also to children if they do understand it. the more u open ur self to options in life and actually commit to trying it and seeing every possibility that u can unlock and have and use, the more options are open to u at any time for u to use the skills uve learned to ur advantage. the more things u attempt and try and check out to see what ur capable of, surprises u by the end of it. i used to be tone deaf. couldnt sing to save my life. until i actually tried and payed attention to songs and was teaching myself how to improve, im actually pretty decent for a beginner now and that was just self teaching. ik as well that i will be able to learn spanish if i try and put the effort and time into doing so because ik the methods to use to memmorise spanish words and even then, spanish is rather easy anyway and i used to speak basic level fluent spanish. i just forgot most of the words over the years as i thought i didnt need to learn them.
I swear the avatar fandom is the greatest and least toxic and we all collectively agree that ATLA was literally just the greatest animated series ever, no plot holes, consistent writing, beautiful top tier animation, significant attention to every details, unique story, and just incredible writing and storytelling all together. Ahead of its time, genuinely, but also just completely timeless. Like it's just so good. You seriously dont see quality like this anymore which is heartbreaking yet also in a way, a good thing because it means ATLA will continue to be the GOAT
This is something I've explained many time before in countless other videos but yeah, Zuko adopts many different styles, stances and patterns from other bending arts to perfect his own. The most common style he uses with his firebending is waterbending which is especially evident in his fight with Katara where he was mimicking her moves and slowly adapting to, and overpowering her. He mixes Aang's style with his own by the time he decides to join Team Avatar and he showcases many Earthbending stances which is what he picked up from Iroh about drawing energy from "The Breath" and keeping a firm stance rather than aggressive, which represents Neutral Jing.
Zukos journey intentionally mirrors Aang. They both learn to use the other styles, they both learn to accept who they are, and they both have a bone to pick with the fire nation.
@@Joshua_N-Ayes, more or less you are correct. The two of them are polar opposites of the spectrum in terms of background and also in terms of their journey, but when they come together? They're truly a force to be reckoned with. Zuko's redemption arc was brilliantly written, the way they put it together was legendary. The fact that his story also continued beyond the show's conclusion was cool too. They showed he and Mai having a true twin flame relationship.
zuko isnt sadly another aang but it does go to show that even without being some special character to balance the world, normal every day people can be as strong as these legends if they worked hard enough to be at their level. its the reason why aang and korra sometimes got bested. they restricted them selves or didnt learn their lesson which caused them to be outmatched and outplayed in a battle at times. as they all improved, they all became their own legends within their own right and set a path in society to balance the world out. aangs friends and girlfriend and even zuko werent some legend but stapled them selves on par with the legends because they learned to improve for the greater good and became strong enough to be as huge of a significance.
Zuko may have been the best Fire lord ever by far, but no one comes close not even an inch close to "MELON LORD MUWHAHAHAHA!!" 🔥🔥🔥 PROVE ME WRONG! lmao
@@CopShowGuy I appreciate the enthusiasm! I really do, but that is not the subject matter I was pertaining to, my good sir🙏💯🔥❤️ yes Melon Lord was defeated by Sokka, with a single swing of course, but Sokka was not a 🔥🔥Fire Lord🔥🔥
@@CopShowGuy Whoa, Whoa, Whoa! Don't put down the greatest boomeranger, to come out of the southern tribe during the 100 year war! The S-Man "On FAITH ALONE" took out COMBUSTION-Man, pretty amazing for a peasant. Also got to forge a "Space Sword" with the teachings of Master Piandao on top of that. He lost it, but a pretty awesome feat nonetheless, since Piandao took no students or anything during that time. So please say what you will about his love of meats, or his psychedelic trip off of the Quenchiest "Cactus Juice", but a peasant I think not. Plus he became chief in the future, so very far from a peasant! Lol
That’s what made iroh such a unique bender. Most fire benders simply fight furiously and have a blitzkrieg style of bending towards their enemies and like to cut them down as swiftly as possible. But iroh was smart enough to see past that and see the unity that all benders have, they work off one another and in instances where katara and aang are working together on sokka’s plan it really sends home the idea of balance of the four nations that the show preached. Iroh, aang and zuko are definitely some of the strongest benders out there.
You don’t need to be the avatar to be a bad ass, don’t downplay Zuko’s power like that Edit: Unless you’re not being serious about the statement in which case yeah bro hes the avatar
Definitely not serious but SO TRUE! Zuko didn’t need to be the Avatar in order to be one of the coldest fighters out there. Obviously he’s not the best in the world, but his flaws makes him strong. He adapts extremely well to all environments and harsh elements, doesn’t require bending to destroy mid opponents, excellent learner, leadership skills - a potent ally you want on your side.
What makes that final duel with his sister so amazing is that, Zuko is finally confident in his abilities as a firebender and it’s the culmination of all he has learned over the past we year. Having him basically bend all 4 elements but incorporating it with fire bending made him a force to be reckoned with. It was something Azula was not ready for despite her mental state. What’s even more impressive is firebending mainly has offensive attacks. But Zukos knowledge allowed him to make defensive maneuvers as well. Holding off combustion man’s attacks at point blank is no small feat.Iroh said he was sure if he could beat Ozai not Azula he’s manhandled her before no problem
You can’t say “despite her mental state” like that’s some nonchalant thing. The only reason Zuko even fought her was because her mental state made the fight even. If she hadn’t lost her mind, she would’ve killed both Zuko & Katara right there with low difficulty
@@eyeballtreehouse111 I highly doubt that, and I’ll say it again despite her mental health. You don’t get to dictate what’s said buddy. Azula would not have killed both of them, Zuko by the end of the show is a much more powerful bender than he was in the beginning. So let’s stop with the foolishness
@@thatguySmitty234my take on this, is somewhat in the middle …. Zuko undoubtedly leveled up so hard from s1 to the final Agni Kai. No question he got way way stronger. However… azula is a prodigy… to quote yourself “you don’t get to dictate what’s said”… IROH said he doesn’t even know if he could be azula right?? So her mental state is absolutely a factor. If she was in her proper state of mind… like taking over the dai lee state of mind? She would have absolutely beat zukos ass because of her skills, not raw power… however that comet boost is no joke. Idk if she woulda killed them bc ofc katarra was there, but Zuko losing the agni kai is almost guaranteed in this alternate ending
@@DJBEAST821you know what I'm thinking? Zuko never wanted to kill her, that's why he'd be in a more defensive position. And his defense got great, more than Azula remembered. Zuko learnt something that Azula doesn't know, even her being one if not the most powerful firebender. (Literally could jet fly with her blue flames. Not even Ozai could) So in a Sane-Azula VS Zuko scenario i think the only way she could win is by using some tricky way to mislead Zuko into a trap, same as she did with Katara, she'd do it again perfectly conscious but even better executed. However she's a control freak. If Zuko can survive and prove her ineficient, chances are she's gonna feel that she's losing control, hence doing some out-of despair moves, again, like she did with Katara.
No Zuko at the end solos Azulas as depicted in the final fight despite her mental health. Throughout the whole show, you can tell that Azula was as cruel and cold as her dad but Zuko never had a cold heart to harm his own family. Even after losing his mom and being publicly humilated by his dad and tricked by his sister he still stuck with them. Azula has no problems backstabbing the brother so ofc she fights him head on but he has a strong family tie and lost himself with his internal conflicts. In the last chapter he finds himself again and he finds out his true family is his uncle. He accepts that his sister and dad are not good and he no longer holds back. Azula only knows attack. Zuko learnt how to attack, defend, deflect, and repel. He's learnt not t9 just his own attack power but also use Azulas own force on herself basically like Taichi.
Well luckily for you! Smelly boy if thats your real name And the rest of the fandoms out there will be blessed to get an animated avatar movie hopefully early next year With the exact voice Actors, story line either takes place after season 3 or time skip and I ain’t talking about the live action teaser they just released, I’m talking about the hardcore nostalgic avatar show I grew up Watching at the tender of 7 when it first came out which I’m forever grateful to have witness alongside the original CN OG shows like teen titan, shawling showdown can’t be bothered to look up the actual name and many more, no need to thank me mr buttface and just spread the good news
He's the great grandson of the previous avatar, and he hunted the current avatar, plus later trained him while traveling alongside him and his friends. This isn't just something that runs in his genes. It's something he learned to do.
Zuko really had the biggest growth throughout the series. Which is really important since the end has him take in charge of the fire nation, bringing it back to its harmonious glory with the other nations. It's great to see he is able to see wisdom in the other techniques and nations so that will help him. Btw him using techniques doesn't make him the avatar, just adaptable. He still can't use other elements unfortunately
The man with the Cabbage stand lost so many cabbages. He has been around longer than everyone. Earth Kingdom had the Avatar the ENTIRE time. Cabbage stand man is THE AVATAR!
In Korra, ATLA, and in the expanded universe books it seems like the avatar’s companions are some of the strongest benders of their element (at least of the companions that do bend). I have had the theory that that is because they do get to take inspiration from other elements bending instead of only learning and seeing their fellow benders of their element. In Korra it seems like her companions don’t seem to be as OP compared to other benders of their era and I think that is because republic city has brought together fire, earth, and water benders and this collaboration and cohabitation has expanded beyond that era’s team avatar
That is so true. The reason why ATLA is so relatable is because each character took up different forms from the other elements and used them to their advantages, whereas Korra is just too modern, just being self absorbed and little to no growth whatsoever.
Even in cohabitation in korra they've stuck to themselves it wasn't till the brothers that lived in harmony as brothers of different elements. But you also have them expanding their own bending learning from others. Also the fact they didn't need their bending to fight as much unlike war times made them dull to fighting experience they only did the bending games as combat experience. Then you have aang and his gang that was molded by ongoing war and strife. Its like the same with boruto generations of peace forced people to become dull with no combat experience.
His uncle is his mentor we know that Iroh knew the relationship of each element to each other That's why Zuko's fighting style is flexible and inspired by different elements.
Apparently that spin thing was just Zuko using his breakdancing. There was an Avatar Extras thing that clarified that he used to be part of a breakdancing group

Best repetition arc in fiction hands down.
I won’t say my favorite part of the show but the older I get and the more I rewatch the show I understand Zuko allot
Zuko remembers techniques but can't remember names💀💀
LMAO SO TRUE 😂😂 a blessing and a curse jk
Not remembering names is very normal for guys
It actually makes a lot of sense. He was raised to believe that power was everything. He needed to be strong to prove himself. Beyond that he was being fed the narrative that everyone was below his family. You're not going to be invested in remembering the name an unimportant person.
Same here
To be fair he's never been told any of their names, I'm not even sure he knows Appa's name.
Almost 20 years ago Avatar came out. I was 21, loved it. And all these years later there is still a love for the show but people always pointing out super cool stuff that makes each watch through more enjoyable.
Tbh this just shows how much of a slept-on dueling prodigy Zuko was. Dude basically acquired the Sharingan from Iroh in that scene.
I knew that he was to learn that but the fights happen so fast you don’t notice, it’s crazy how his learning is reflected through his combat and it’s nice to see it side by side to where he learned it.
The "helicopter kick" is one of Zukos signature moves. He doesn't have this one from Aang. If I remember it correctly, he used it first in his agni Kai with Zhao.
Thank you
and its dope as fuck, maybe he learned it with his uncle who loves and respects other cultures
@@Dom-Andre He learned the concept of using other elements as inspiration in book 2 but used the helicopter kick in book 1 already. As I said, it's HIS signature move. I imagine that he came up with it himself. Zuko wasn't considered a good firebender by his family but I think he just had an unorthodox style to begin with. Maybe Iroh encouraged him to develop his style but I don't think that he straight up teached him moves like the helicopter kick, especially since he isn't the acrobatic type himself.
Tbh it is still an air bending inspired move though
@@CE77777pretty sure spinning isn’t exclusive to air benders.
I love the live action zuko and iroh, characters are played and portrayed very well
How can a human create such a masterpiece as this but now days it’s all the same show just with different color actors. To this day nothing has surpassed this in my mind.
you can actually see small influences from other bending styles in all of our main bending characters' fighting over time, its super cool to see!!!!!
Yeah, like Katara just head-on blocking Hama's attack instead of redirecting it - much like an earthbender.
@@justalex8502 exactly the one i was thinking of!
@@kalliope420 Yess. Does Toph have any moments of borrowing other bender styles? I know she can't see them, but I wonder if she could have sensed some movement patterns, as long as they were on the ground
@@justalex8502 im not sure. i feel like i saw it in all of them but i'd have to rewatch to really know. i definitely think its just as possible for toph like everyone else as her whole thing is really paying attention to her opponents movements
@@justalex8502 there is maybe something there when she starts working with the meteorite, she bends it in a very fluid sort of way. its also possible she employs waterbending techniques when she improves her sandbending, considering sand can act like a fluid, but i cant remember actually seeing that specifically
Sokka also learned fighting techniques from the different nations
SOKKA IS THE AVATAR TOO
Sokka has the element of surprise so he is too strong to be the avatar
Cut to Sokka in a Kyoshi warrior outfit lol
Sokka the backbender!!!

Awesome! Even in non bending fight (as blue spirit), Zuko's performance is also awesome.
He learned the hard way that he was going about things the wrong way in life and in turn realized he needed to befriended the avatar and help restore balance to the world
Zuko remains my favourite character in TLA. Such a beautifully tragic character with a brilliant redemption arc
Zuko remembering what Iroh taught him about using other bending techniques with the lightening redirection technique is what gave him the edge over Azula in their fight, along with her mental state being what it was. He kept his movements to minimum much like Toph’s earth bending. His stance allowed him to keep his footing and allowed him to counter Azula’s moves. Had Azula not targeted Katara, Zuko would have won.
technically he did because she attacked Katara, but even if she hadn't he still would have beaten her.
Azula was defeated, not just by her opponent, but the friggin spectator too XD
It's not just Zuko. Katara uses an earth stance in her fight with Hama. She stops a giant water attack by holding her ground like an earth bender rather then the push and pull of a water bender. When Katara does this, it cuts away to Hama being shocked.
Wow, i never noticed this. Avatar is such a masterpiece
Shamelessly reusing all that bending animations and choreography in such a genius way is just different level
An strong stance as an earthbender, agile movement like an airbender, the adaptability of waterbender
And the drive of a firebender?
@@1994AustinSmith totally
@@1994AustinSmithor maybe the fact he’s a fire bender
@@Starry_cloud Firebending is about drive, right?
@@Starry_cloud what yall talking about hes right
I love that all of them at some point start to use each other's techniques for their own bending and I think that's just so cool, and very telling of their abilities and their connection too since they all end up spending a lot of time together
i love that it also underpinns visually the very essence of the lessons this show was trying to promote that through learning and understanding of each other and our differences taking little pieces on board along the way we ultimately all become better off as a society
zuko probably my favorite character
I will keep talking about ATLA till the day I die. Best animated show ever
That's cause iroh taught him the importance of understanding the 4 elements in book 2. Also he does that breakdance kick in book 1
Twice in book 1. Once vs Zhao to break his stance, and once in Kyoshi island as an AOE defensive maneuver.
Hahahaha the breakdance kick🤣🤣🤣 but yeah haha i get what you mean😅
Break dance kick😂😭
Zuko and katara and toph are the avatars of their elements. I love this series
True
Saka won every girls
saka was the back bender lol@@rushakgaming9732
Sokka Avatar of non bending
@@AstroSullySokka, Avatar of rizz bending 😏
I could write a thousand word essay on this show and still have more to talk about. The character development of each character is off the charts and the details are crazy I love this show so much. The Agni Kai between Azusa and Zuko was one of the most beautiful scenes I’ve ever seen, the way Zuko bends and the powerful insanity of Azula is just amazing to watch. If I could go back and watch a whole series for the first time again I would pick it to be ATLA every time
Broo this show is still my favorite till this day
I hadn’t noticed this, it’s amazing just how detailed this show is. Even to this day I’m still learning things about the show that really add another layer of depth to how I view the show.
Fun fact: A very similar thing happened with Sokka.
He was raised as a warrior by his father (Southern Water Tribe).
He learned be humble and respect his opponent from the Kyoshi Warriors (Earth Kingdom).
He learned to think his way out of a problem by the Mechanist (not really the Air Nomads, but they have similar mentalities so it counts).
He was given some training by Chef Arnook and fought alongside him (Northern Water Tribe).
And he learned swordsmanship from Piandao (Fire Nation)
Pretty cool, right?
He learned how to fight from Suki, his girlfriend and Kyoshi Warrior. And also had a spiritual encounter with his other girlfriend that turned into the moon. I have a theory that Sokka would’ve been the Avatar instead of Katara had Aang lived his course of life like he normally should’ve. While it may not make sense because he is a non bender it actually makes full sense at the same time. His inability to bend is actually the result of Aang living longer than he should’ve therefore Sokka wasn’t given the ability to bend anything yet he took on so much responsibility that he shouldn’t have such as basically becoming Chief of his village while his father was gone, learning to fight with the Kyoshi warriors, learning to build the different mechanisms u mentioned with the air nomad type people (in a way Sokka learning these things was the equivalent of him learning the different styles of bending), making contact with the literal moon spirit on top of learning fighting styles from northern water tribe just as u said and the whole learning process he endured with Piandao and making a sword out of a comet which had literal cosmic and spirit energy flowing through it.
Cool theories! 🔥
Wow, he learned from only non benders 😮
@@xxeroxxasxx_653 Your theory basically means that anyone who's done great feats across the world would've been an avatar candidate, if their current avatar's life didn't follow the timeline the way it did. By that logic Iroh, or any other person doing cool things and learning throughout travelling the four nations was supposed to be an avatar, but it didn't happen for the sole reason of it not happening. It's a cool concept, but it really is more of a fanfiction than a theory.
@@4hoofd No u have it wrong my theory is only about Sokka and Sokka only. I mention Sokka being the next reincarnation instead of Katara because 1. Katara ACTUALLY would’ve been the next Avatar after Aang and 2. Both Sokka and Katara are part of the Water tribe which is the exact next thing in the Avatar cycle. Uncle Iroh is literally the furthest thing from being a reincarnation of an Avatar theoretically and literally as far as the cycle goes. And If unless it states it in some written content like comic books or something (I’ve only watched the series so I know little no lore outside of that) then Iroh didn’t go on a journey like that he took inspiration from other cultures but he didn’t exactly explore those cultures and actually be there taught by someone else. The only thing that comes close to that is his time spent within the earth kingdom and his status within the white lotus. Other than that he only fully explored his own culture and learned about becoming spiritual within the real world which is part of the reason he was able to see spirits while he lived. He also understood that violence wasn’t the right way to go about things and that real peace was necessary. And I think his son dying in war along with the fact that his nephew Zuko was related to Roku was what really opened his eyes to what the 4 nations being in harmony meant. Also a theory could absolutely be fan fiction and vice versa.

I NEVER NOTICED THIS TILL 22 YEARS OLD I FUCKING LOVE THIS SHOW
Wish I could watch this show for the first time again
This and Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul
I’d kill to watch for the first time all over again.
@@DarkInceptionfacts!
Breaking Bad was So boring 💤
@@Chico9569you are just simply wrong
be jealous of me who is watching it for the first time! HAHAHA
What I understand from that is that people are better and stronger when they take inspiration and incorporate different cultures into things they do. That's working together and learning from others makes you a more flushed out person. I think that's Zuko's whole character ark and what helps him become someone who isn't so resentful. But I also think it cures his insecurity of being weak/dishonored. Because there's a honor to learning from others
its easier to learn and use the principles of someone else to make a new move than making something completely new from scratch
its due to restricting them selves due to a belief or some system that had forced them to think or use one element being the one they are born with into society. after beginning to adapt and learning to fight did alot of the main characters become such a prominant fighting force and use different elements depending on the situation to benefit them. its seen more in the legend of korra in that cage match thing where they re use this concept but in a game instead where u adapt and learn to use ur surroundings and hone in ur skills to improve. the more options u have, the stringer u are and the more versatile u can be in combat or in a fight or in a battle. there were times even korra and aang got bested because they restricted them selves and werent learning from their mistakes and improving until much later where the time called for it.
@@unboxing_legend7708 YEAH. It's that they're bound to "this is our culture/tradition" so it's locking and compartmentalized them into not being able to grow
@@somadrummond6256 i guess u can reflect it on real life as well in ways. ive learned that alot of kids shows actually do have deeper meanings like this often to the parents or adults but also to children if they do understand it.
the more u open ur self to options in life and actually commit to trying it and seeing every possibility that u can unlock and have and use, the more options are open to u at any time for u to use the skills uve learned to ur advantage. the more things u attempt and try and check out to see what ur capable of, surprises u by the end of it.
i used to be tone deaf. couldnt sing to save my life. until i actually tried and payed attention to songs and was teaching myself how to improve, im actually pretty decent for a beginner now and that was just self teaching. ik as well that i will be able to learn spanish if i try and put the effort and time into doing so because ik the methods to use to memmorise spanish words and even then, spanish is rather easy anyway and i used to speak basic level fluent spanish. i just forgot most of the words over the years as i thought i didnt need to learn them.
and this is a huge part of why zuko has one of my favorite redemption arcs in fiction
That was the smoothest transition I've ever seen

I swear the avatar fandom is the greatest and least toxic and we all collectively agree that ATLA was literally just the greatest animated series ever, no plot holes, consistent writing, beautiful top tier animation, significant attention to every details, unique story, and just incredible writing and storytelling all together. Ahead of its time, genuinely, but also just completely timeless. Like it's just so good. You seriously dont see quality like this anymore which is heartbreaking yet also in a way, a good thing because it means ATLA will continue to be the GOAT
ATLA does have a plot hole the hole is how was the all mighty melon lord defeated so easily?!

@@truthseeker7815 can't speak on that one. I haven't watched it but I've heard good things. Gravity falls was another really good one.
Well… too many of us are toxic to Korra and fans of the show
The attention to detail in this show is still fucking crazy
I find it very interesting how they learn and improve through other element techniques
This is something I've explained many time before in countless other videos but yeah, Zuko adopts many different styles, stances and patterns from other bending arts to perfect his own. The most common style he uses with his firebending is waterbending which is especially evident in his fight with Katara where he was mimicking her moves and slowly adapting to, and overpowering her. He mixes Aang's style with his own by the time he decides to join Team Avatar and he showcases many Earthbending stances which is what he picked up from Iroh about drawing energy from "The Breath" and keeping a firm stance rather than aggressive, which represents Neutral Jing.
The kick he’s been doing since he fought Zhao in the Agni Kai. Did it again during Zuko alone when he fought the corrupt earth bender soldiers.
Now he just missing the main part of the being the avatar, using all four elements haha
😂😂😂 Exactly
And the whole reincarnation thing lol
😂😂😂😂😂
Sokka is the nonbender equivalent of the avatar, he learned fighting styles from every type of
That first scene when his eyes glowed was sick
I mean when Katara was fighting Hama in the bloodbending scene she holds her ground using an earth bender technique.
I was thinking of that too! So cool how they mix techniques.
Zukos journey intentionally mirrors Aang. They both learn to use the other styles, they both learn to accept who they are, and they both have a bone to pick with the fire nation.
2 sides of the same coin?
@@Joshua_N-Ayes, more or less you are correct. The two of them are polar opposites of the spectrum in terms of background and also in terms of their journey, but when they come together? They're truly a force to be reckoned with.
Zuko's redemption arc was brilliantly written, the way they put it together was legendary. The fact that his story also continued beyond the show's conclusion was cool too. They showed he and Mai having a true twin flame relationship.
zuko isnt sadly another aang but it does go to show that even without being some special character to balance the world, normal every day people can be as strong as these legends if they worked hard enough to be at their level. its the reason why aang and korra sometimes got bested. they restricted them selves or didnt learn their lesson which caused them to be outmatched and outplayed in a battle at times. as they all improved, they all became their own legends within their own right and set a path in society to balance the world out. aangs friends and girlfriend and even zuko werent some legend but stapled them selves on par with the legends because they learned to improve for the greater good and became strong enough to be as huge of a significance.
That was literally the plot of an entire episode
Zuko is just the coolest
Redirecting lightning was a water influenced bending style.
Zuko on 100% power
Zuko straight up be like:
"I am the most complete fighter in the world." **spinning kick intensifies**
Lol somebody has been watching undisputed
@@user-uu7jt7ee3f Bro, it's a long time ago, but the scenes can't be forgotten😂🤌
That’s so cool! Makes me love Zuko even more

Uncle Iroh will always be *THE GOOAATTT.*
The same can be said for Katara when she fought with Hama. She took an earthbending stance when she went on defense to block Hama’s water blast.
More reasons why ATLA is one of, if not THE, best animated shows out there.
Zuko is the great grandson of Roku so even if he can't literally bend all 4 elements, he has a little avatar spice in him.
watching this made me super giddy! now I want to rewatch the show again.
Just when I thought I couldn't love this character anymore dude is a straight badass

“Zuni is the avatar”
Aang rn
👁️👄👁️
That’s what made iroh such a unique bender. Most fire benders simply fight furiously and have a blitzkrieg style of bending towards their enemies and like to cut them down as swiftly as possible. But iroh was smart enough to see past that and see the unity that all benders have, they work off one another and in instances where katara and aang are working together on sokka’s plan it really sends home the idea of balance of the four nations that the show preached. Iroh, aang and zuko are definitely some of the strongest benders out there.
And he learned the element of honour. Lol 😆
You don’t need to be the avatar to be a bad ass, don’t downplay Zuko’s power like that
Edit: Unless you’re not being serious about the statement in which case yeah bro hes the avatar
Definitely not serious but SO TRUE! Zuko didn’t need to be the Avatar in order to be one of the coldest fighters out there. Obviously he’s not the best in the world, but his flaws makes him strong. He adapts extremely well to all environments and harsh elements, doesn’t require bending to destroy mid opponents, excellent learner, leadership skills - a potent ally you want on your side.
Man so goated that he's the avatar with one element
Zuko is probably the smartest character in the show he's very powerful with his bending (and he's kinda fine)
What makes that final duel with his sister so amazing is that, Zuko is finally confident in his abilities as a firebender and it’s the culmination of all he has learned over the past we year.
Having him basically bend all 4 elements but incorporating it with fire bending made him a force to be reckoned with. It was something Azula was not ready for despite her mental state.
What’s even more impressive is firebending mainly has offensive attacks. But Zukos knowledge allowed him to make defensive maneuvers as well.
Holding off combustion man’s attacks at point blank is no small feat.Iroh said he was sure if he could beat Ozai not Azula he’s manhandled her before no problem
You can’t say “despite her mental state” like that’s some nonchalant thing. The only reason Zuko even fought her was because her mental state made the fight even.
If she hadn’t lost her mind, she would’ve killed both Zuko & Katara right there with low difficulty
@@eyeballtreehouse111 I highly doubt that, and I’ll say it again despite her mental health. You don’t get to dictate what’s said buddy.
Azula would not have killed both of them, Zuko by the end of the show is a much more powerful bender than he was in the beginning. So let’s stop with the foolishness
@@thatguySmitty234my take on this, is somewhat in the middle …. Zuko undoubtedly leveled up so hard from s1 to the final Agni Kai. No question he got way way stronger. However… azula is a prodigy… to quote yourself “you don’t get to dictate what’s said”… IROH said he doesn’t even know if he could be azula right?? So her mental state is absolutely a factor. If she was in her proper state of mind… like taking over the dai lee state of mind? She would have absolutely beat zukos ass because of her skills, not raw power… however that comet boost is no joke. Idk if she woulda killed them bc ofc katarra was there, but Zuko losing the agni kai is almost guaranteed in this alternate ending
@@DJBEAST821you know what I'm thinking? Zuko never wanted to kill her, that's why he'd be in a more defensive position. And his defense got great, more than Azula remembered. Zuko learnt something that Azula doesn't know, even her being one if not the most powerful firebender. (Literally could jet fly with her blue flames. Not even Ozai could)
So in a Sane-Azula VS Zuko scenario i think the only way she could win is by using some tricky way to mislead Zuko into a trap, same as she did with Katara, she'd do it again perfectly conscious but even better executed.
However she's a control freak. If Zuko can survive and prove her ineficient, chances are she's gonna feel that she's losing control, hence doing some out-of despair moves, again, like she did with Katara.
No Zuko at the end solos Azulas as depicted in the final fight despite her mental health. Throughout the whole show, you can tell that Azula was as cruel and cold as her dad but Zuko never had a cold heart to harm his own family. Even after losing his mom and being publicly humilated by his dad and tricked by his sister he still stuck with them. Azula has no problems backstabbing the brother so ofc she fights him head on but he has a strong family tie and lost himself with his internal conflicts. In the last chapter he finds himself again and he finds out his true family is his uncle. He accepts that his sister and dad are not good and he no longer holds back. Azula only knows attack. Zuko learnt how to attack, defend, deflect, and repel. He's learnt not t9 just his own attack power but also use Azulas own force on herself basically like Taichi.
I hope the fandom shows up on day 1 Avatar Studios presents its first project.
This series has been so good to us.
Well luckily for you! Smelly boy if thats your real name And the rest of the fandoms out there will be blessed to get an animated avatar movie hopefully early next year With the exact voice Actors, story line either takes place after season 3 or time skip and I ain’t talking about the live action teaser they just released, I’m talking about the hardcore nostalgic avatar show I grew up Watching at the tender of 7 when it first came out which I’m forever grateful to have witness alongside the original CN OG shows like teen titan, shawling showdown can’t be bothered to look up the actual name and many more, no need to thank me mr buttface and just spread the good news
He's the great grandson of the previous avatar, and he hunted the current avatar, plus later trained him while traveling alongside him and his friends.
This isn't just something that runs in his genes. It's something he learned to do.
Zuko really had the biggest growth throughout the series. Which is really important since the end has him take in charge of the fire nation, bringing it back to its harmonious glory with the other nations. It's great to see he is able to see wisdom in the other techniques and nations so that will help him. Btw him using techniques doesn't make him the avatar, just adaptable. He still can't use other elements unfortunately
Nice video, it just reminds me how badass Avatar is..now I’m going to sit down with my kids and watch the final season😎

The man with the Cabbage stand lost so many cabbages. He has been around longer than everyone. Earth Kingdom had the Avatar the ENTIRE time.
Cabbage stand man is THE AVATAR!
In Korra, ATLA, and in the expanded universe books it seems like the avatar’s companions are some of the strongest benders of their element (at least of the companions that do bend). I have had the theory that that is because they do get to take inspiration from other elements bending instead of only learning and seeing their fellow benders of their element. In Korra it seems like her companions don’t seem to be as OP compared to other benders of their era and I think that is because republic city has brought together fire, earth, and water benders and this collaboration and cohabitation has expanded beyond that era’s team avatar
That is so true. The reason why ATLA is so relatable is because each character took up different forms from the other elements and used them to their advantages, whereas Korra is just too modern, just being self absorbed and little to no growth whatsoever.
Even in cohabitation in korra they've stuck to themselves it wasn't till the brothers that lived in harmony as brothers of different elements. But you also have them expanding their own bending learning from others. Also the fact they didn't need their bending to fight as much unlike war times made them dull to fighting experience they only did the bending games as combat experience. Then you have aang and his gang that was molded by ongoing war and strife. Its like the same with boruto generations of peace forced people to become dull with no combat experience.
Except in the first season they’re greatest op was a bunch of people who couldn’t bend ironically
ZuKo Is ThE AvAtAr bro is just taking inspiration
It can also be seen as fire is probably the most versatile of the 4 elements
This fight was hands down one if not the best in cartoon history.
He is often referred to as the “Shadow Avatar” because of his wide variety of technique throughout the show.
His uncle is his mentor we know that Iroh knew the relationship of each element to each other That's why Zuko's fighting style is flexible and inspired by different elements.
Apparently that spin thing was just Zuko using his breakdancing. There was an Avatar Extras thing that clarified that he used to be part of a breakdancing group
