I didn't realize that seeking comfort from a guy means you're officially in love! That's a very interesting theory, SgtHydra.

It's also amazing how a fourteen year old and a sixteen year old are a pair of adults when they hug, while a fourteen year old and a twelve year old are just like a mother and son. Somehow that doesn't make sense to me....

And about the Kataang=Maiko thing: That's not true. I was actually never a Maiko shipper until this episode. I found it quite boring and really didn't care for it at all. This episode was actually what caused me to start shipping it because of the love and dedication in the relationship. Yes, he dumped her, but that sarcastic remark doesn't mean anything. She was willing to give her life for Zuko...and you're trying to tell me that's not real love? And if you even paid a speck of attention to the way Zuko acted in that episode, it's obvious to anyone that he still has feelings for her. As of now, they're not "officially" dating -- all because Zuko didn't want Mai to get involved and get hurt, not because he doesn't love her.

Straight up Stubborn, You Zutaras are.

If there was not meant to be more to come for Maiko, they wouldn't have used a line as powerful as "you miscalculated, I love zuko more than I fear you"... Azula's pretty scary, so that's reallly sayin something. you have to admit that this line alone indicates that there will at least be more storyline to come out of Mai and Zuko's relationship... it'd be a pretty dumb move to write Mai off into oblivion after that. no matter what you want to happen in the end, Mai has officially been cemented in as playing a part in Zuko's final status.

My only wish is for 316 to murder Zutara and only make it a friendship between them, not a love relationship. This is what I suspect anyway.

Kataang and Maiko for the future!

we would probably end up with some weird love triangle, if there were more episodes, but there are two things wrong with Maiko right now

1. May was not seen in any part of the trailer after the br

2. May is trapped in the br

and for those who say that May will escape because her father will let her out, dont count on it, i bet Azula will fire him in her anger.

All you "Maikoers" are actually Kataangers who know that Maiko is the only thing preventing Zutara from happening.

Even so, you are all forgetting this:

This isn't a Kataang hug. Its too open for that. Kataang hugs are like a mother and her son. This is like two Adults, in a relationship or not. Its comforting, supportive, and most of all, intimate.

Look at both people's expressions. Katara is clearly seeking comfrot from Zuko (for what, I can't say.)

All you "Maikoers" and Kataangers are just dancing around the facts.

Zutara is canon. And canon in a different way than Kataang or Maiko.

This is not a crush. This isn't puppy love. This is a real ship.

HAHAHAHAHA SO TRUE maikoers = kattangers (well for the most part i guess)

Not true at all :-) I've been a Maiko fan since Zuko Alone. I've only started to really like Kataang since around about the beginning of this season.

Sorry to burst your bubble there - but anyway, here, have a muffin! *offers muffin* Don't worry, it won't bite - this isn't Soviet Russia ;-)

(Oh, btw Maiko soooo isn't the only thing preventing Zutara from happening - not by a longshot.)

This is not true. I support Maiko but not Kataang. Aang is too young for Katara, he is also too young to have a serious boyfriend girlfriend relationship. Aang has a crush on katara, that's all. But I really believe in Maizo. I mean, they broke up but you can feel that Zuko feels horrible about breaking up with Mai. He did it because he feels helping the avatar and restoring balance is more important. He could not ask Mai to join him at the moment, but by helping them escape she proved she loved him and eventually they will end up together. Is not easy standing up too Azula. "I love Zuko more than I fear you". That's kind of strong, she loves him and he loves her too. When he told Sokka he had a girlfriend and it was Mai he was smiling just remembering her. He said he couldn't drag her into this. he feels he did what's best for her, him and the world by breaking up with her, even if he only left a letter. As for Zutara, they make great fan fiction but I can't see it happen in the show.

How is Aang too young for her? 2 years is really TOO young? Aang is actually extremely mature for his age, I mean, if having to face the strongest being on the earth and saving the world isn't a mature action, PLEASE teach me maturity. 12 is definitely not too young to have a relationship; there's kids out there at age 8-10 going out. People make out Katara to be like she's 18 or something, but regardless of how she acts, she's always going to be only 2 years older than Aang. She HAS to act mature for her age, remember her life back home after her mother died and father left? Naturally, a girl her age will have a grasp on how to act mature when put under those circumstances.

Aang has grown up a lot since the beginning of the show. His "crush" is definitely no longer one, but true love for Katara.

I don't know how Mai will escape, but I do know Mike and Bryan are not stupid enough to put in that intense of a scene and then not have Mai show up ever again. If absolutely nothing else, when Zuko's placed on the thone to restore balance Mai will definitely be freed and there will have to be a scene between the two of 'em. I'm not saying they must get together, i'm saying there must be a scene... which actually likely means they will get together but if nothing else I'm absolutely convinced that it would be a travesty to the entire series to put that scene in the boiling rock and not have it mean something in the final episodes.

one thing to think about if you still want to hate on Maiko but admit the obvious importance of Mai's saving of Zuko: Mai saved Zuko because she loves him and Ty Lee saved Mai because she's her friend... that doesn't mean either of them have any shred of a desire to retore balance to the world they just don't want the people they care about hurt/killed... perhaps Mai shows up as a temptress for Zuko to seize power and continue the Firenation's evil ways, so he has to give her up even though he cares about her and maybe even fight her in the end.

going with the idea of meeting her again after being placed on the throne, perhaps she meets him and says "great, now the two of us can rule the world together" and he is tempted to do so because he loves her but has to throw her back in prison and ends up a tragically alone figure (or for you crazy zutarians, katara comes and comforts him and becames the fire queen)

what IF Aang still loves Katara when he is 18 and she is 20?, please don't make ships all about sex, plus it was established by Yue that is traditional in the 4 nations not to have people engaged before their 16th birthday(which basically means that the FN was ok with Mai being the GF of Zuko, but not yet to be engaged as she is still 15)

all bull

aang is not performing a mature action but is very brave and courageous. mature is, according to dictionary.com, fully developed in body or mind, as a person. so aang is definitely not mature.

12 IS STILL A EFFING RETARDED AGE TO DATE. kids that ARE going out at the age of 8-10 is SH!TASTIC FU*KING STUPID.

its still a crush. a kid does not know the true feeling of love. but maybe since this is a KIDS TV FICTIONAL SHOW, then MAYBE whatever.
