| Of course he would have cared! The fate of the world hinged on the death (or simply defeat) of his father. OK joke time is over. It honestly depends on how loosely you use the word "cared". If his father had been killed after all, would he have felt a bit sad? Regretful (losing his actual father)? Callously indifferent? Zuko always wanted his father to love and accept him pre-DOBS as confirmed in said episode. But once he finally realized that the "love" and "acceptance" he was looking for wasn't to be found in his relationship with his father, as well deciding that he has to do the right thing and his father is in the way of that, he lost that drive. He even said that his uncle was more of a real father to him showing that he now saw Iroh as his father figure. I will say that Zuko will have cared in the sense that he was losing his actual father but I don't believe he would have been shedding any tears over hit. Even though the redeemed Zuko entitled him to throwing away his anger and hatreds (I think so :p), he still bears a big grudge against his father. That's not to say that would make him jump into the air shouting, "YIPPEE!! HE'S FINALLY DEAD!!" or anything, rather, relief and happiness that the fire lord and subsequently the war had ended but a little grief over the knowledge that his actual father, and their relationship as dysfunctional as it was, had to end in such a way.
