    Somehow I think Kataang has to happen because Aang's heart can't be broken! He has lost sooooooooo much already.

    However he needs the Avatar State to defeat the Fire Lord.

    But again- for him to master the Avatar State, he has to let go of all earthly attachments (Katara).

    It is really confusing...

    earthly attachments jus meanss that he has to learn to be able to let her go.....tht doesnt mean he has to let go his feelings for her...jif tht wus tha case then Avatar Roku wouldnt have gotten married...he mastered tha avatar state yet he still loved he true love all the same...it is jus tht he knos that there are times that he cant also think about her.....thts all


    Let go and live!

    Girls are crazy bastards (no offence to those present) and often will love you even after you screw up and do you a favor, but by god. whatever you did, they will never, ever let you take them out on a date AGAIN!

    I believe Maiko went through a similar experience.

    As did I...

    Anywho... if the Boiling Rock = Maiko, it would also imply Ty Lokka.

    Ty Lee did betray Azula... and not just for the hell of it... and she was looking all sad at Sokka.

    If Maiko lives, then Ty Lokka lives.

    Which, of course, is a no go in the logic train.

    Zutara and the recently made hot George FTW!

    Ty Lee stopped Azula because she didn't want Mai to die. Ty Lee didn't do squat to stop the gondola Sokka was on from falling. And Mai's already forgiven him once before in The Beach, and they started dating again.

    This isn't a slight disagreement, Zuko pretty much dissed her so much I doubt Maiko has any chance ever again.

    Srsly, I once got into this trap. Me and my girlfriend went through an event that kinda made her pissed as hell at me. We sorta kinda made up, but as far as me and her dating went, it was over.

    Mai and Zuko are going through the same thing.

    And then of course... there's...

    I'm not sure I follow why Maiko wouldn't happen. She loves him enough to sacrifice everything and betray Azula. And Zuko still loves her, so much he would rather let her go than see her get hurt for him. But because they stopped dating for a while, the ship can now never happen? And if you want to get into a shipping picture war, Zutara isn't going to win.

    If sacrificing everything and betraying Azula count for evidence of a ship, then get on board the Ty-Mai train!

    And not only have they stopped dating, Mai outright called Zuko "The guy who dumped me."

    And why wouldn't Zutara win in a shipping picture war? Its the only one that actually "lights my fire," so to speak.

    Maiko is Zuko kissing an ugly girl, Kataang is basically Aang getting kissed/kissing his mother, and, well my friend, Jet's dead.

    Zutara wins.

    wow, some people are really committed. I usually try to avoid this treads but there are just too many of them, and this case I guess the episode was relevant.

    But seriously guys, some of the stuff people say its just plain ridiculous. Its just a cartoon for god's sakes, way to overly analyse everything.

    I thought the episode was pretty straight forward in its message, but I guess some people like to argue, or believe there are right no matter what.

    And Mai and Zuko clearly still have feeling for eachother, regardless of a sarcastic remark from Mai. And because of that I'm having a really hard time believing Zuko would betray Mai like that after all she did for him, and run away with a girl who he has shown zero interest in, who has shown zero intrest in Zuko. That AND Katara has Aang, the main character, crushing on her. And Zutara would not win a picture war because it has 2 real pictures. Whereas Maiko and Kataang have dozens.

    and now lot of parallels increasingly growing between George and Maizu, the only way Maizu/Maiko can really end is if either Zuko or Mai dies

    now it Looks like(but we have to see what Bryke decide) Maizu/Maiko = George; Zutara(can only possibly happen if Mai dies) = Tokka(can only happen if Suki dies)

    Tell me?

    Maiko is over.

    Mai said, quite clearly, "That's the boy who dumped me."

    That doesn't mean "That's my boyfriend right there" or "There's my sugarlumps" or "Hey there chocolate bear," it means "Zuko is an ass for writing the letter and basically dumping me, but I'm gonna help him out anyway because he's my ex and a boiling hot death is too good for him."

    Ty Lee cares for Mai as a friend, so Mai can care for Zuko as a friend.

    Ty Lee's betrayal actually took moar balls than Mai's. Azula was right there when Ty Lee betrayed. Ty Lee had to knock Azula out without fail. Ty Lee cares about Mai alot more than Mai for Zuko.

    If Mai cared so much, why isn't she coming along?

    if sokka cared so much about dad, why didn't he insist in taking dad to the WAT? why did he said instead I will comeback for you later?

    also, sokka went to BR for his dad, suki was a happy coincidence

    and zuko said in the episodes, that sometimes one seems to fail, but the key is to stand up and keep trying. never give up completely. he already is thinking of how to save Mai in the future, right now saving the world is more important, kind of like "forgetting the earthly attachments" at the present in favor of doing what is best for the whole world

    oh but I forgot.......... you can't stand under 13 people having a significant other, nor bald people(like cpt picard of the enterprise, or Kojak or Michael Jordan)plus as a semi-hardcore zutarian, you will see every "possible" alternatives that "might bring" about zutara happening as facts, not "unlikely but possible future events"

    and you will not say "is possible that maizu will happen", you feel you must somehow close that door as soon as possible

    BTW, as I posted earlier

    as far as Zuko knows(and by extension the whole gaang)the only one in trouble is Mai, they don't know Ty Lee sided with Mai in the almost Azula-Mai fight

    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.

    Ty Lee's betrayal actually took moar balls than Mai's. Azula was right there when Ty Lee betrayed. Ty Lee had to knock Azula out without fail. Ty Lee cares about Mai alot more than Mai for Zuko.

    If Mai cared so much, why isn't she coming along?

    if sokka cared so much about dad, why didn't he insist in taking dad to the WAT? why did he said instead I will comeback for you later? also, sokka went to BR for his dad, suki was a happy coincidence and zuko said in the episodes, that sometimes one seems to fail, but the key is to stand up and keep trying. never give up completely. he already is thinking of how to save Mai in the future, right now saving the world is more important, kind of like "forgetting the earthly attachments" at the present in favor of doing what is best for the whole world oh but I forgot.......... you can't stand under 13 people having a significant other, nor bald people(like cpt picard of the enterprise, or Kojak or Michael Jordan)plus as a semi-hardcore zutarian, you will see every "possible" alternatives that "might bring" about zutara happening as facts, not "unlikely but possible future events" and you will not say "is possible that maizu will happen", you feel you must somehow close that door as soon as possible
    Hey, its not just zutarians ignoring possibilities. Which shippers were "closing doors" at CoD? Which ship has supposedly "sailed" a million times, according to its opposition shippers? Which shippers have bashed zutara again and again simply because its not kataang? Which shippers said that zutara was over when they viewed the first maiko kiss in the trailer?

    The problems run both ways - BOTH sides have double-standards. Don't put all the blame on zutarians, its just as much the kataangers as us. Yes, we do tend to overanalyse stuff, but so do kataangers. Both sides have WAY too many double-standards for either side to accuse the other.

    EDIT: Ugh, I wish tv.com would stop deleting half my posts. Anyways, interesting point about Ty Lee. Afterall, if she hadn't interferred, Azula would probably have killed Mai, thus making all this debate about Maiko pointless. Either way, Zuko has no idea if Mai is even alive, which makes things a lot more interesting

    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.



    YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND What Proof can you really have.
    Aang and Katara DANCED together...and it looked like 2 ADULTS dancing, also Katara's kissed Aang now a number of (Believer of the Cave of 2 Lovers kiss) 3 times!!! (Even if she pulled back but it probably wasn't disgust) But once again you're telling me the only proof Zutara has is just 1.....freakin......HUG!!!???
    Wow...

    Personally I think that just because Mai and Zuko are broken up at the moment doesn't mean they can't get back together later. It's pretty obvious they still have feelings for each other. I don't like the idea of Zutara nor Kataang at the moment. If Kataang happens I'll be fine with it, but Zutara would come kinda out of the blue. George seems to be really canon now, but I feel a little sad for Toph. That's my opinion.

    Mmm yeah you're oke, but thinkin it trough (Altough i seen TT long time ago) BB and Rae didn't end up officially together, that is however irrelevant because you're right, Toph could live one without a man cuz she's strong character

    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.
