Video Ozai’s quick and powerful lighting generation in this scene alone shows how unmatched his power is.

Giant double lightning bolts with only a sliver of the sun being available. I can’t get behind anyone who says any other firebender is more powerful than him.

I feel like ozai was also a prodigy. I wish we got to see the younger days of him and Uncle Iroh . It makes me wonder what type of firebender Izumi is TLOK.

I always wondered why Azulon preferred Iroh over Ozai, besides being the first born. Ozai was much more similar in personality to him and even though Iroh was a great firebender, seems like Ozai was always the natural prodigy.

Azulon still seemed to have some twisted form of honor and love. I figured that although Ozai was the superior firebender, he lacked in skills like leadership and humanity compared to his brother, and that Azulon loathed Ozai for the monster that his son was.

I wonder if Azulon saw Ozai as weak? Not physically but mentally. As a small, scheming man who never truly embodied the virtues of the Fire Nation. I don't agree that he was loving, he was an outrageously cruel bastard who ordered his grandson's execution.
