Honestly the most emotional kiss in the entire Avatar franchise
- Look at Mai pulling Zuko closer
- Which makes Zuko surprised at first (his eyebrows) but then he returns the intensity
- Look at Mai’s eyelids. She loves him so much.
- You can basically feel how much they fucking missed each other
- And hear the deepening of their breaths
- Look at their shoulders
- Look at their hands
- Look at their lips
LOOK AT THAT MAIKOUT
EVER
the fall of azula is one of the best written story arcs in cartoon history and i will stand by this comment forever
you know another thing i really love about this scene? despite knowing their martial art and acrobatic prowess, azula still underestimated and looked down on mai and ty lee. the audience knows mai has the precision to cut and kill—and she was ready to do it. but ty lee chose to disarm and temporarily paralyze azula with the one tool she always has at her disposal (firebending) with two unsuspectingly swift hits. those skillsets are terrifying. people kept saying they (nonbenders) were mediocre compared to benders but atla made sure non-benders could be just as much of a threat as any bender.
