Are you smoking crack????????????????

And mind you, he betrays his family and his country to do what's right AFTER he finally gets everything he wants. He has nothing to gain and everything to lose by becoming a traitor. He sacrificed everything he had; his family, his girlfriend, his father's approval, a comfortable bed to sleep in, the guarantee of a full stomach, his good name. He goes from luxury to being impoverished and homeless in the wilderness again, voluntarily, because it is the right thing to do. Not because he thinks the gaang are on the winning side and it's the most likely route to power, he doesn't even consider that he should become the new Firelord after his father and Azula are defeated and is shocked when Iroh says it should be him, even though he's literally the heir. He did not want power and was willing to kill for and die for the victims of his country's genocidal imperialist war to atone for what had been done to them, and for his own past actions.

I haven’t watched the leaked AtLA movie, and there are plenty of reasons why people might decide to wait to watch the new movie until when it officially releases in October. Me? Well, from the screencaps and gif sets I’ve seen, I’ve noticed something incredibly important is missing - Zuko’s lightning scar! There have been claims that the leaked version isn’t 100% complete, so obviously if I wait until October to watch it the final version of the movie will have Zuko’s lightning scar in its full glory, right? …right?

But seriously where is Zuko’s lightning scar? At best, it was a careless mistake, but at worst it was a purposeful decision to erase the physical representation of the culmination of Zuko’s character arc. Why would you choose to erase Zuko’s big hero moment??

After all, from pictures, I know adult Aang still has his lightning scar, and his scar was treated with Spirit Water (!!) and weeks of intensive healing by Katara. If Aang still has his lightning scar after all that, then adult Zuko should absolutely have his too. Aang and Zuko are supposed to be lightning scar buddies!

But hey, the leaked version isn’t the final version supposedly. Zuko’s lightning scar will definitely be there in the final release (a girl can dream…). In the mean time, I’ll be enjoying all the wonderful new fanart available, where luckily many artists do remember Zuko’s lightning scar.
