All I have got to say if your gonna go out, go out with a bang. The
music behind Azula and Zuko's firefight was fitting. Where all you
could hear was the music set to the fire blasts. It really gave the
feeling that someone was going to die. Even though neither did. The
emotion behind the single line where Azula strike's her wicked witch
of the west pose, "I'm sorry it had to end this way". With Zuko's
come back, "No your not". Also set the tone nicely.
There could have been a little more drawn out storyline with Azula
losing her grip on reality, and thus losing her grip on control.
Rather than Zuko's line right before he faces her. But hey, I can't
complain that much.
And I have to admit right after Katara tricks Azula, the first thing
that came to my mind, was what happened to Zuko's mom. I was glad
they at least addressed it in the finale. Even though they left it to
the imagination for now.
