To me bending??fire looks easy, there's no hard part to it.??For example, when Zuko tried to??make lightning and kept failing , it didn't looked that hard to me. All he had to do was get over his??anger and??be completely emotioneless.??I mean, even his little sister can do it. (I would be mad if Azula was my sister). It looks like all you have to do is control your emotions and that's what make Jeong Jeong, Azula, and Iroh powerful firebenders.

YOU try controlling your emotions if your mother was murdered by your country for your sake, your sister turned evil and destroyed everything you had, and the whole world disliked you.

You have to be emotionless for Azula's type of firebending?! That's just sooo wrong! Lightning, with all of those twists and turns, looks like you'd have to be a emotional person in order to use it. Like handwriting... the more twists and turns in a person's writing, the more creative and emotional the writer is.

i dont think u have to b totally emotionless. u just have to be in control of your emotions. something in which zuko is not due to the conditions listed above. azula is heartless, but not emotionless.

there is a difference between just throwing fire, which probably isn't that hard, and "controlling" fire, as Jeong Jeong pointed out to aang. Im pretty sure that it is much harder to be able to bend and be willing to control the fire unlike zhao in the first season.

Firebending is the easiest to begin learning. Anyone can create fire. A novice Firebender can probably make fireballs within his first week, whereas it seems that the other arts seem slower and difficult to do. It seems like there are more Firebenders in the nation than Earthbenders in the kingdom. I believe that Firebending isn't a special quality or rare.

To further demonstrate this point, Zuko was a terrible bender and actually came at learning bending a different way than the proper method - as did General Zhao. It seems that Firebending is an easy to pick up art that is common and can be taught in many ways. Fire Mastery may be another thing entirely, but I believe the beginning is the easiest art in the land.

firebending may be easy to learn and its really powerful, but wut makes it hard is that every firebender is thus powerful, and so it is hard to rise from the mass and distinguish oneself from the rest of the group cause everyone looks skillful

Which is where a good bit of creativity (like Zuko's resourcefulness or Iroh's wise tactics) come in handy.

Zuko's dad wouldn't have probably banished him if his mom was still there. I bet his dad's been waiting to do it all his life. He just needed an opening.

I think it's easy to firebend I want to ne a fire bender one day.

Its really quite easy. I do it all the time, when ninjas attack.
