Fandom secret 841:

122: Right, because dropping the character with the most and most realistic character development is a good idea. As for his skill at bending? And fuck you for taking a shot at his bending. It's called working for your skills, instead of getting them god-modded to you.

159: You're still waiting to find a female character that you like because you have problems with women. YOU have problems with women. Try therapy and then talk to me. Because, I'm sorry, if in a group of women with such diverse personalities as Katara, Dax, Mulan, Buffy, and Orihime you can't like even one of them? You have epic fucking problems.

What the hell?! There's no way you could have Avatar without Zuko. There's so many reasons for this. But at a very, very basic level of storytelling, Zuko is an antagonist for part of the series, and the antagonist is a main character. Honestly, you take out any of the main characters and the story is going to fall apart.

There are a bunch of other reasons why the secret is made of fail, but the other commenters hit it pretty well, so I'll leave it at that and agree with them. However? That is a gorgeous picture of Zuko. What's with these secrets made of fail on artwork made of win?

...also? Saying that Zuko isn't the best at bending also feels like a shot against Sokka. Sokka can't bend at all and he also had to work hard to get his skills where he could pull his weight.

True.

I don't know, I just feel that it so epically misses the point how 1.) how good Zuko actually is, even in the beginning 2.) and how a whole part of his character is that he works for his skills, sometimes epically harder than everyone else does.

Yep, I almost ranted about this in my post. It's like, if Zuko wasn't there, why would they have doing during season one? Why would we have cared when Azula showwed up?

I don't know, but I want that pic.
