He's ruled the Fire Nation for maybe 10 years, potentially less, so he's been coasting along on the war machine that Sozin and Azulon built (a war machine that, despite clear naval dominance, has been struggling with the EK land war.) He's charismatic (Hamill's performance does wonders) but I feel like his hold on power, if the Gaang hadn't stopped him, would have become increasingly tenuous as time went on.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694362417308874455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372693484053299675.post-7715426856694926062023-07-05T17:15:26.763-04:002023-07-05T17:15:26.763-04:00Ehhh I will have to disagree on that front of &quo...Ehhh I will have to disagree on that front of "Just a patetic bully, I swear he is nothing!" relly to much on the idea imperalist can be threating and given fire nation have being winning for a century stright kinda tell something. <br /><br />Ozai is no really intersting and kinda flat but he is threating and not just because institutional power. Is intersring that they anag defeat him by pretty much overpower him, kinda a shameDiego ernestohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14162112803281913763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372693484053299675.post-62104622136147343392020-11-09T13:51:03.414-05:002020-11-09T13:51:03.414-05:00Never watched any of it, alas.Never watched any of it, alas.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694362417308874455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372693484053299675.post-87261006617291967622020-11-03T22:36:31.663-05:002020-11-03T22:36:31.663-05:00do wander over yonder nextdo wander over yonder nextsemiurgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10613841869525544649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372693484053299675.post-36450529441444670452020-09-28T02:46:37.772-04:002020-09-28T02:46:37.772-04:00The ballsiness of a cartoon with its themes during...The ballsiness of a cartoon with its themes during the jingoistic height of the Bush years is well worth noting.

Doesn't work, and Aang throws him to the ground again. Ozai expects to be killed, and begs for his life, before realising that he just... begged for his life from a child?<br /><br />Idk I just have an image of a fully powered Ozai sitting in prison, completely impotent. The door isn't even locked. He's still trapped.Spwackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07247063374457045751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372693484053299675.post-37846965536399484262020-09-26T14:52:33.166-04:002020-09-26T14:52:33.166-04:00Excellent post.
