Something that I think about and mention a lot is how Azula was raised. Namely that she was basically a human weapon for Ozai. He pretty much saw her raw talent as a kid, the potential for power, and groomed her as a war child. In doing this I think that he gave her a very warped sense of self worth among other things. For as hard as she pushes other people, I feel like she holds herself to very high-standards too; no doubt that it's because of how she was raised.

Despite her confidant bravado, I honestly I feel like Azula could be probably one of the most insecure characters on the show. Hear me out; (as mentioned) she has a facade of confidence but if anda think about it with lines like "almost isn't good enough" I can see her really beating herself up over little things. She likes perfection to the point where even she can't meet her own standards. This is one of the big factors in her breakdown, if I could guess. Her decent into madness was heavily due in part to her failing to meet not just her father's standards but her own. She wasn't even good enough for herself. She worked very heard to achieve her goals and to better the api, kebakaran Nation (as she saw it) but it was all for nothing in the end. Literally everything grand and noteworthy she accomplished had been undone and she Lost everything. Literally everything, and it destroyed her. She even Lost the fear that she had invoked so even filling the void didn't work. That's why her story was so tragic because she strives so hared to be perfect and was so goal oriented, only to have it all taken from her.
Her loss during the final Agni Kai didn't do her self-esteem any good. In general losses don't bode well with her; I can imagine that Ozai didn't take well to her failures either.

In fact Azula is a very quintessential example of what happens when anda put such high expectations on your children. She was raised to believe (and honestly its probably true) that she wouldn't be respected atau loved if she didn't meet the standards. I mean she saw what happened to Zuko when he didn't meet the standards. She was very much a war child, it was almost like Ozai wanted Ursa to give birth to her just so he had another chance to craft his kid into a human weapon. And her mother was too busy making sure Zuko wasn't being physically abused to make sure that Azula wasn't being mentally abused. Which led Azula to believe that she was unloved. And that lead to the seterusnya thing; her own insecurities. Between her mom not expressing Cinta right and her father setting his expectations so unspeakably high, Azula ended up putting a lot of pressure on herself. If she couldn't have love, she'd have respect. To get that, she'd have to be unbelievably powerful and what not. I think that with poweress & fear, she seems to be trying to fill a void. If she couldn't have love, she'd have fear. It's really sad though because because it's true she doesn't have love, she has respect. She wasn't viewed as someone who needs to be cared for but only as someone powerful and admirable (at best). And if she couldn't get respect she'd settle for fear because that's better than nothing. It kept her going to at least have people respecting and being intimidated sejak her. Which in itself created a cycle; she became so intimidating that people were afraid to Cinta her. In a sense her father isolated her; he raised her to instill such fear that she would be unapproachable--even to her own family. And so she pushed Ursa, Iroh, and Zuko out leaving Ozai as the only role model--just the way he wanted it.

I think that the reason she ended up in such a horrid state is because she had no one to help her fall. Zuko and Azula basically flopped roles sejak the end of the series. The difference was that Zuko always had some support and genuine Cinta in some way atau another. He had guidance, a beacon of light to rely on. So after finale Azula is like season 1 Zuko without help from Iroh. She's very Lost and confused and has no one to help her get through it. I hope that in an upcoming comic, that she'll get some Cinta and support even if it's from newly introduced characters. Azula had a very rude awakening. Though it was a hati, tengah-tengah breaking scene, I think she needed that wake up call to even start the healing process.
Because in those final scenes of the Agni Kai both her insecurities and humanity were shown.

“Azula, Shou tells me you’ve been talking to them again.” Lu-Ming stated.

“She’s lying.” Azula intended to answer as vaguely as possible.

“Lying?” Lu-Ming questioned.

“Yes.”

“And why would she lie?”

“Because she doesn’t like me…” Azula trailed off. She already berkata too much.

“Azula, it’s not healthy to just assume everyone hates you. Like you’re mother, she…”

“I wish to go back to my room now.” Azula cut him off.

“We are going to have to talk about her eventually.” It wasn’t an empty threat, it was a promise. This wasn’t the first time Lu-Ming...

So this is my opinion on who are the most beautiful girls in Avatar: Last Airbender, which is my favourite Tv tunjuk ever; I just think the characters and the storyline, and art, is absolutely spectacular. This is a senarai of the bahagian, atas ten most beautiful, in my opinion, ranking them in order of how beautiful they actually are. It may seem silly that I am ranking cartoon characters in how beautiful they are, but I just had the great desire to do this, because truthfully I had nothing else to actually do, and found it interesting to post my opinion of the most beautiful female characters of my favourite show, and such, and I was also inspired sejak another user to actually do this. So I believe I have gotten rather a bit off topic, and therefore I suppose we should now get onto the list:
 No.10: Jin. I've got to admit Jin is rather pretty, but she sadly doesn't seem to be able to surpass the other girls in beauty. I find her appearance to be far too goofy, her hairstyle messy and unrefined, however she does have rather beautiful green eye,

 No.9: Young Hama. I think Hama was quite pretty when she was young, (she only became ugly when she got old); when young she had: pretty eyes, pale and rather flawless skin, and such..

 No. 8: Young Ta Min. She became Roku's wife, and I've got to admit she was quite beautiful when she was young; having such lush skin, but however she does appear to have a sort of mark bellow the eye, delicate grey eye, long lustrous hair, and such.

 No. 7: Ty Lee. I know she is rather pretty, however I do not think she is very much so; her face I find is far to squashed and baby-ish, her eyes far too big for her face, but she does still have flawless, lush skin, and a rather sexy body.

 No. 6: Song. Song is a rather beautifully cute girl; having perfect pale skin, big grey eyes, with lustrous brown hair, and such a nice dress. The only mare of her beauty is however a bad, burnt scar on her leg, but I doubt that is much.

 No. 5: Mai. Some people may find her rather plain, but I think her face is rather pretty, having a sharp delicacy to it, her skin flawlessly pale and lush, her hair unique and long, and such; her movements are so graceful and tranquil.

 No. 2: Katara. anda maybe surprised she isn't No. 1. Anyway Katara is very beautiful; her eyes so large and like a warm ocean; her hair long and silky; her skin so flawless and tanned; her cuteness. In my opinion she's been beat to 1 sejak just a hair.

I feel as though a lot of people are under the impression that Ozai treated Azula nicely. Yes he did indeed buy her all these nice things but at the end of the hari she was pretty much just a pawn to him. Azula may have had her father's respect, but it didn't seem like she had his love.

While yes--as far as we know--Ozai never put his hands on Azula, the verbal abuse was apparent. She is afraid of him. Whist we haven't really seen him abuse her verbally I think it was hinted when he yelled at her before declaring himself the phoenix king. I also couldn't imagine he let her down easy behind the...
