    The problem I think with relationships is Zuko. Such a character should've deserved a more steamy love affair than that boring Maiko. I'm pretty much Zutarian, though I realize there are only eight eps left and it's hardly possible for them to fall in love now. But still.....I feel so sorry for Zuko not starting off a more steamy relationship with someone this season. Maybe he could've found Jin back? Atleast someone he just met. I don't hear bells when hearing Maiko, I hear a requiem lmao.

    I agree. I can't stand Mai, she is just not right for Zuko. Besides Zutara, the only other Zuko ship is support is SongxZuko.

    My choice: Azula x June

    I definately agree! Maiko is the terrible proof of writers hooking up characters too carelessly. I can repeat this over and over again: If Maiko was executed in a different way, I MIGHT have approved. But as it has been now, I call it an ultimate disaster in animationhistory.

    Nah. Azula is a freelancer, a bountyhunter, and she lives how she wants. She's no ones boss, but she definately leads her own life. Azula is an organized controlfreak. I think these characters would pull each others hairs out.

    InuYasha's problem is Kikyo and too farstretched episodes I think.

    the writers should have cut out episodes like "the painted lady", "nightmares and daydreams" and the beach, and wrote new episodes that expanded the whole Maiko fiasco, and showed them fall in love with each other and junk. And then inserted those episodes at the start of S3.

    I definately agree here. Then in that case for example in episodes like the awakening a slightly awkward comfort from Mai (instead of that relentless kiss). In the painted lady and the beach Mai trying to confess some feelings for Zuko (Zuko being dense or something) and then the two having some awkward bickering (I just love when lovers bicker). Maybe round the end of the beach a kiss...ofcourse in DOBS this being a dramatic element because Zuko decides to leave.

    I just think they will be well off together because they will amuse each other. Since each get pleasures out of the same thing.

    Agreed (except nightmares and daydreams, I actually liked that one because it made Aang more human in my eyes). I kinda like the idea of Maiko if Zuko must absolutely end with somebody because no matter how much of a dweeb Zuko is he's his own man and the star of his own story. He has his own goal, his own dreams, his own hopes. His life is parallel to Aang's and it connects at certain points, but it is still a life way appart from Aang. So he deserves his own lady too, instead of taking what's from Aang. I'm pretty sure Maiko was planned close to when they decided to create Azula and it was good, but I would have showed it a little better. Like a flashback of Mai and Zuko as kids with them interacting alone (swan-swan style would have been cute) and maybe a better insight to Mai. At the end she was showing more emotion for Zuko's sake, but that should have been a little earlier. I understand Mai's social-awkwardness problems and how Zuko can drag Mai out of her shell, but we should have seen it sooner. We still have time until she betrays Azula for Zuko. And yes, my money's on that because if I'm certain is that Mai's not fond of Azula and she's just waiting for the right time to stick the knife in Azula's back.
