Talk:Comet-Enhanced Agni Kai

Should we rename the article to "Last Agni Kai"? That's the name of the track heard during this Agni Kai. It would also serve as trivia for the page. Omnibender - Talk 21:00, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * That's where I got the title. But I think that 'Last Agni Kai' might also be a good title, maybe we should have a vote?

 * I like the trivia idea, but I've noticed on other battle pages that they are discussed like a school textbook. Things are addressed such that it says "Fire Lord Zuko" rather than just "Zuko", "Princess Azula" instead of "Azula", and "Master Katara" over "Katara". So if the title could be called "Duel for the Throne" or "Agni Kai for the Throne", it would have more of a zero point of view sound to it. Energybender - Talk 21:12, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Distinction between an Agni Kai and a Fight
I think we need to align the definition of an Agni Kai with that of a real world duel for the purposes of the Last Agni Kai. In our world, a duel is an engagement in combat between two individuals, with matched weapons in accordance with their combat doctrines. Therefore, I think we need to say An Agni Kai is strictly a structured duel between two individuals of the same bending element, strictly Firebending. Saying that the Agni Kai continued between Katara and Azula isn't correct for several reasons:

1. First off, the moment Azula sent lightning at Katara, the fight  ceased to be a duel, therefore ceased to be an Agni Kai, as Azula violated the rules of a duel being between two individuals alone.

2. Second, Katara is a Waterbender. The word Agni is a Sanskrit word meaning 'fire'. Kai is the Japanese word for meeting. 'Fire Meeting. Therefore, an Agni Kai is a duel between Firebenders alone. This coincides with our definition of a duel as being done with matched weapons.

3. Azula was crazy. She only planned to have the Agni Kai because she firmly believed she could defeat Zuko without Katara interferring. When Zuko was disabled, the

'''Bottom lines:

1. Katara did not participate in the Agni Kai, because an Agni Kai does not allow for multiple or non-Firebender participants. This is to prevent people from saying this Agni Kai was special because it was the first time a Waterbender participated in it.

2. The Agni Kai had no victorious party because Azula violated the rules of the duel... "Just you and me, brother!" Therefore, the Agni Kai became null and void, instead deteriorating into a simple fight.'''
