<p>I've waited so long to say this....

FIIIIIIIIIIIIRST!
</p><p>Okay, with that out of the way, I thought it was pretty anticlimactic.
</p><p>I feel kind of bad starting the thread on such a low note, especially since I did enjoy the trilogy, but Azula's plan doesn't really make sense, it feels out of character, I would have wanted Zuko to finally surpass her, & are we going to find out what happens to the Faux Kemurikage after this?
</p><p>The resolution of Ursa's subplot was alright, but I don't know if it needed to be milked that much, if basically all she had to do was tell Ozai to piss off. I like her description of him. It's very fitting.
</p><p>Specifically with regards to Zuko's actions, I don't really feel what he did was so bad. I guess there were some amateur mistakes. It would have made more sense to question the Safe Nation Society more informally before moving to full-on arrest, that way they could narrow down their suspect pool & thus limit wrongful arrests, but there's nothing inherently wrong with searching houses or freezing transport so fugitives can't escape.
</p><p>And compared to Aang's solution...someone needs to tell this kid that "let's talk" is not a plan, you have to DO something eventually. Especially since, in Ukano's case, there was probable cause for an arrest.
</p><p>Plus, Aang completely undermines Zuko as a leader, after Part 2 showed that he's a capable & effective Fire Lord, which is suddenly a bad thing I guess. It's just kind of annoying, we already did this with The Promise, can't <i>Aang</i> be wrong for a change? The lesson Zuko SHOULD have learned is "I need to delegate." Maybe stop going into secret tunnels with the Avatar, & instead let him report what he finds. Or at least appointing an official to oversee the city's crisis while he's away.
</p><p>How Kiyi discovered her bending was neat & pretty cute, as is any time she references her Big Bro the Firelord, & I really liked the way they resolved Ukano, who will presumably give information on the New Ozai Society, wrapping that up. I never thought I would be rooting for Mai's dad, but here we are. Though I am wondering what's going to happen to him now that he's in jail. Hopefully they don't give him the Ozai Treatment, as I think he could do a lot of good now that he's reformed.
</p><p>I don't know what's up with Azula's lightning, it used to be lethal, now it's like a bee sting, how is she stronger? It does seem like she can do it more easily now, but does that make it "stronger"?
</p><p>Alright, I think that's all I've got. Sorry to start a thread on such a massive spiel before anyone else has had a chance to give their take, but there was just so much to cover.
