However, the princess is supposed to manipulate blue flames in the original animated series. This fire also earns its name, and the expert goes so far as to create lightning, the results of long years of training combined with exceptional talent. It’s his signature, and not finding it in the video extracts surprised the community, which did not fail to complain about it on social networks.

“The whole point of the blue fire was that it was even hotter than other firebenders, it was a detail to show how powerful she was despite her young age.”

“Azula’s fire isn’t blue??? / I really hope she gets her blue fire bow that everyone is talking about.”

“Remember, she’s not even supposed to be in this first season. The real reason Azula comes into play is because her brother is seen as incompetent/unreliable. So his father gives him the task for Zuko, which makes the second book much more intense.”

If the video extract may have disappointed some, the Netflix series will be released on February 22. Fans will then be able to get a better idea of ​​the treatment reserved for one of the best antagonists of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
