Hello all. So. my question is kind of answered already in the original post of this thread but there is still some confusion on my part. This is regarding Azula's age. Since her age is never actually mentioned in the show (not that I remember anyway but please, correct me if I am mistaken) I always assumed that she was older than Zuko. The original post states that Zuko is 16, Azula is 14 and Mai is 15. Most of the Avatar info I've seen in various places on the net seem consistent in suggesting that Mai is about a year older than Azula. However, based on info from the show, shouldn't Mai be around 17 or 18? Thus making Azula 16 or 17?

Epispde 305: 'The Beach'. Ty Lee says to Mai "You were an only child for 15 years". So Mai was an only child (for 15 years) until little brother, Tom Tom came along. We meet little Tom Tom in episode 203, 'Return to Omashu'. In 'Return To Omashu' Azula does mention Tom Tom's age...Since it's been a long while since I've seen this episode, I can't remember if it's 2 or 3. So if Tom Tom is at least 2, and took away Mai's "only child" status when she was around 15, then Mai should be around 17, maybe even older.

I hope I am not over-analyzing this. Please set me straight if I am.

I also hope this hasn't been discussed already. This thread alone has 160 pages and there's just no way I can read through them all at this time. I've checked other threads but most with an answer say Azula is the younger sister.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and all info is greatly appreciated,

That explains a lot.

Here's a question.

Why was Kuruk an avatar if all he had to do was Show-off?

All the other Avatar's had to fight a war or something along those lines so why not him???

G4 is covering it, but I doubt they'll care about the avatar booth.

TV.com is also covering it, and since this forrum is pretty popular, they'll probably take a look at it.
