Top Five Avatar characters.
Thursday, June 12th, 2008 11:05 pm (UTC)
(1) Azula. (Strong, frighteningly intelligent, competent antagonist who is also female and doesn't get slipped into a 'cackling maniac' role OR the female villain role that pisses me off the worst, 'blindly loyal lover to male villain'. And I love her lines.)

(2) Toph. Simply because she could out-hardass anyone on the show, she is a tiny blind girl who kicks major earthbending butt, and I plain out love her concept. And then they don't do much with her, which saddens me.

(3) Katara. Pretty much everything about her, how she relates to the team, the very realistic sibling vibe she has with Sokka, the snotty snarkiness she does, and more reasons I could babble about.

Honestly,these three characters almost tie for first place and continuously switch about. I place them in this order mainly because I am fickle and shuffle them a lot, and the list demands linear order.

(4): Zuko. I'm a sucker for satisfying character development, redemption stories, and honor-mad banished princes. Who also happen to have a gooey inner core of pure DORK. I'm convinced that to be a top Good Guy on Avatar, you must also be a major dork.

(5): Uncle Iroh! For being the kooky, tea-loving, humble, wise, firebending master, general, and all around super-awesome old man that he happens to be.

Oh, nice choices.

And just about everyone I know is like, 'Azula: how often do we see female villains that are that good?' And the answer is almost never.
