    Ah yes, another list thread. Here we go:

    1. The fact that Zuko could not defeat Azula because his bending was halted by the turmoil in his life, and Azula was "perfect" with no real problems. Then, Azula ends up with the turmoil, and becomes befeated because of it, while Zuko lets go of his.

    2. The whole "Zuko Season 2 Finale" thing.

    how Zuko and Aang were bitter enemies... but yet they became close friends at the end

    how the blue spirit (Zuko) rescued Aang... who at the time were enemies

    um... how Bumi who was so crazy... end up reclaiming the whole city by himself

    how Ba Sing Se was to be the perfect "utpoia"... but had such a corrupt system

    how Zuko wanted his honor... then later when Zuko had his honor... Aang talked how he needed his honor

    um..... how katara said she would never bloodbend... yet she did become a bloodbender

    well thats what i could think of now.... i guess there are more inonies then i thougth.... i'll prob think of more later

    well actually it was a group effort... not so much just Suki that saved the Earth Kingdom... thats my opinion anyway. to me its not that ironic... but im not against ur opinion.

    Most of those are very good, though I guess Bumi reclaiming the city by himself wasn't really that ironic because we knew previously that he is a very powerful earth bender maybe second only to Toph (maybe not even that).

    In "The Avatar State," Iroh jumps out of nowhere and catches Azula off guard. In "The Chase," Azula returns the favor.

    At the beginning of S3, Iroh is imprisoned while Ozai is living a life of luxury. By the end of S3, Ozai is imprisoned in the same jail while Iroh lives a life of luxury.

    Iroh-ny.

    No, I know what you mean. But without Suki they wouldn't have been able to stop the air ships. It was a team effort, though.
