    Hello,

    I know technically this could fit into the "ask a question get an answer" thread but to be honest everytime I post a question in there it gets lost within all the messages that say "this has been deleted by moderator" I mean no offense but you lecture ppl to only post questions in one thread but when I do I don't get answer because I can't even find my own question anymore =/ Sorry to rant but anyway....

    ??How come in the show I've never seen anyone else but Azula use blue flames? I know she was mentioned to be a child prodigy but how strong is she compared to Iroh or Ozai? Also she is the only firebender i've seen use lightening so thats another oddity too. Even when they show Avatar Roku or even Jeung jeung they never did any cool lightening or blue flame tricks =/

    ??Also, I was wondering if anyone sees any resemblence with the guru and that monkey that was mediatating in the spirit world during the season finale. (The one that told aang to follow that light). They both seem to have a similar voice, appearance (as much as a human and monkey can have), and overall attitude.??(although the monkey seemed a little annoyed). I have an idea that the guru like Aang can travel to the spirit world only he does it in a weird animal spirit form or something =/??

    You almost had the right idea posting in the "AAQ,GAA" thread, but you overlooked the "Who is the strongest firebender: Iroh, Azula or Ozai?" Thread. Try there.

    You could have posted this in Who Is the Strongest Firebender-Azula, Iroh, or the Fire Lord??(and on this thread there's a poll and Azula is only voted by one person at the moment). But just to answer your questions, just because Azula uses blue fire doesn't mean she's better than other firebenders. Her blue fire is just a hotter version than??regular.??I find Azula a novice bender because she lacks experience and wisdom, which Iroh and Jeong Jeong have, and she brings down anything that gets in her way, like Zhao. She's ruthless, a perfectionest, and doesn't understand the balance of the world. Also, she's not the only firebender seen using lightning. Iroh was shown using it in "Bitter Work." And just because we haven't seen Avatar Roku use those other "special abilities" doesn't mean he can't use them. I mean, come on, he's??an??Avatar.

    Because no one else feels the need to.

    Because Azula likes to show off.

    Because she is a pyromanic.

    Any answer works.

    I'm a little new to the forum but i like the Avatar. I think Azula comes second to the fire lord. I mean she basically second best to her father

    ok guys, first of all: the avatar is the strongest in every element... not just because he's the avatar, but because he had like 100 previous times to control the 4 elements, so he's capable in doing so incredible much more then he's just??showing at the moment. guess he just doesnt know how yet. ofcourse the avatar state causes a direct link between all the avatars that have once lived, but there has to be another way also to get the knowledge and experience of the previous avatars... also the fact that he can controll all elements, causes him to know all the knowledge of each of the 4 elements, just like Iroh explained Zuko in ''Bitter Work''.

    for exaple:??fire tends to spread itself and destroy everything in its path. water has to be felt and controlled and therefor needs a lot of concentration and selfcontrol. if u can bend water, u can refine ur fire bending.

    Iroh hasnt shown yet what hes capable of... thats why i think its more then likely that they'll end up fighting eachother.

    Azula does seem like the strongest firebender we've seen yet but, she isn't. Iroh may be more powerful than her even thought she kind of attacked him right out of the "blue".He's more experienced??than her at firebending, The only difference is that she's a firebender prodigy which explains why she can do blue fire. And if she's that dangerous, image the Fire Lord!!!

    Notice that I said the word IF!! I don't think she's the strongest, I think Iroh...MAYBE Ozai...My friend who is looking over my shoulder says it's Zuko...Don't listen to her, she's nuts!

    Azula is the strongest we've see yet...she was powerful enough to go toe to toe with Aang and nearly gave him a??Blue Fireball Facial...it can be "assumed" that Iroh is stronger since he's more experienced and his lightning is much much bigger...but Azula showed me somethin' so I go with her until Iroh does more than serve tea and disarm a pathetic masseur wannabe

    U are out of ur mind if u think azula is more powerful.Iroh was a general and azula is a punk.The only reason she hit??iroh is becuase he was paying attention to toph.iroh would own her one on one.

    The only reason Iroh was able to even lay a hand on Azula in Avatar State and the Chase was because she was currently focused on either Zuko or Zuko+Aang+Katara+Toph+Sokka.
    In Southern Air Temple when he hit Zhao...Zhao wasn't paying attension to him either, he was in the middle of a fight with Zuko.

    Every other time Iroh has been in a fight it has been against nameless grunts who as a rule are incapable of being a serious threat to main characters. Until Iroh actually has a one on one fight with a significant adversary we can't say for sure how good he is. I'm fairly sure in his prime he might be able to beat Azula, but he is at least in his 50's and is very out of shape.

    Iroh has legitimatly defeated - nameless fire nation grunts, nameless earth kingdom grunts, and an unsuccessful mugger
    Azula has legitimatly defeated - Zuko (Avatar State), Zuko+Aang (The Chase), had Aang at her mercy again (The Drill), and Suki (Appa's Lost Days).....out of all those encounters Azula has only be physically hit by her opponent once, and that was just Aang pushing her away with his rock glove in The Drill
