Q 3QJust realized that I haven't draw her for a while~~ so last doodle before 7 July.compare with Korra's character design, and look back, the last generation characters are actually very young and cute > 3 [link] No. She is not pure evil.For on thing pure evil does not exist.For another, Azula was manipulated from the time of her birth to believe a certain way. She was taught to see others as inferior, and to see the inferior as inherantly weak. She was taught to use her clever mind for war strategies and manipulations, she was taught that her firebending powers were for exerting dominance and force. She was taught that love and emotions were weaknesses, and they must be snuffed out or there would be consequences. She was taught that trust was for fools, and fear was the only reliable way.She was raised to be a weapon, not a daughter, probably from the moment she first showed any firebending ability. Since Azula was a natural prodigy, this was likely from a very early age.In short, her entire belief system was instilled in her by her father and her upbringing. Her entire world came crashing down the moment that system failed her. After that Azula shows very palpable emotions- fear/paranoia, sadness, shame, self-loathing. She even shows an awareness of love during her hallucination its entirely subconscious, but the fact that hallucinated Ursa admitted that she loved Azula shows that deep down Azula knows what love is, and she knows that her mother did love her, despite the neglect. And yes Ursa did neglect Azulas emotional needs. Thats the difference between her and Zuko- Zuko very clearly felt and experienced his mothers love. Azula did not, because Ursa favored Zuko heavily. Even so, I do believe Ursa loved her daughter in some way.Anyways. None of those things add up to someone being pure evil. Thats a lot of grey area there and I do believe Azula is capable of treating her illness. And anyones worldview can be changed. After all, Zukos was. And Zuko could have easily slipped down a similar path that Azua did. Those two were very much alike.And no, Im not saying that Azula didnt do horrible things. She is a villain, after all. But shes not pure evil.-------------------------------------------------------------these are also my girl~
