Has nothing to do with my blog but why not
People talk about this all the time, but I need to talk about it some more.
ATLA continuously showed the strong contrasts between Sokka and Katara’s family vs Zuko and Azula’s.
They’re set up similarly, of course, with the mother absent, a younger sister and her older brother. The sister is, in some way, considered superior than her older brother toward the beginning because of her abilities, whether it be that she’s a prodigy or just has bending altogether.
But I just,,, HHHNNG.
First, let’s talk sibling relationships.
Sokka and Katara don’t get along all the time. But siblings bicker often, and that’s really all it is for the most part. They genuinely love each other and are devastated when one or the other gets hurt.
Azula and Zuko, as previously explored, don’t like each other but get along fine when their father isn’t there to pit them against one another. (i.e. 3x05 The Beach). Azula has tried to kill Zuko on multiple occasions, and she’s never had trouble manipulating him, even in their younger years. And it was all to please her father or because she was the favorite.
But what I REALLY want to talk about is the parental relationships.
Katara and Sokka loved both their mother and father.
Azula and Zuko both favored a different parent, and that parent favored them in return (not to say that Ursa didn’t love Azula, because she did, but there was clear dysfunction present in their relationship).
Katara and Sokka had a father that loved them both and did what he could for them.
Ozai, was, well, Ozai, and didn’t ever show any care or love for his son because Azula was always better.
Hakoda loved Katara and Sokka and never favored one or the other. (He never degraded Sokka for being a nonbender.)
(Ozai would have killed Zuko if he were a nonbender.)
It’s just apparent how the members of one’s family, primarily the fathers in these cases, can change the entire dynamic.
If Ozai didn’t treat Zuko like he did, and didn’t favor Azula to an extreme, maybe Azula and Zuko wouldn’t have the relationship shown in the show. Maybe they would’ve been more like Katara and Sokka, just a little bit.
If Hakoda has chosen to favor Katara because she could bend, Sokka would grow to resent her while she’d grow to believe he was inferior.
And I just think about that a lot.
Rant over. Sorry this was long-winded lol
