I haven't read the comics nor did I follow the anime series back then, Mity's game was what introduced me to it. Of course every additional information you get will alter how you perceive a certain scene/situation/character. Given that I don't think we're far away in how we portrait Azula. Part of what makes her so interesting is the unknown about her 'real' character. She admits, she's a monster but not without mentioning being neglected by her mother. For me she has a hidden core inside her that can be human and loving but this view surely is influenced by my own view of the world. On the last part I agree on 100%.

About Ursa, all I know about her is she's acting very kind and motherly and that is what Katara is in my view.

1. You're comparing two completely different scenes. It's for the luls I get that, but it's not something to counter my point.
2. If you look through Zuko's eyes in this scene you won't find any sexual interest or even love. Imo you're just projecting your own view on this. And I get that, who wouldn't want to fuck this crazy bitch.
3. I have a sister and I can assure you, I've seen her countless times in situations like this but all I ever saw was my sister, a girl lying on a bed. Pretty normal stuff.
Zuko has 'no' (not much, but IMO he still is pretty affected at a few point during that scene) lust in his eyes because he passed his whole life with her, you really think Azula wouldn't think of pulling that one on Zuko before then ? Also he has a lot of stuff on his mind but he still respond to her game.

I doubt the freaking symbol of temptation in your mind has your sister's voice though and Azula wasn't just lying on her bed like that when Zuko entered the room, she circled around him while talking and specificaly went back to her bed in that position, it's not how she just normaly go to bed.

(I'm not saying it's the 100% true way to see things though, i'm just saying there are clear signs here)

You're telling him that he's projecting but you keep talking about your relationship with your sister. Perhaps you're doing the same?

I personally never picked up on any incest themes while I watched the show but I will say that Azula didn't know how relationships with people worked. Ember Islands was a perfect episode to show that. She likes it when people respect her and fear her but she has absolutely no idea how to talk to people on a personal level. Her words are stilted and she struggles to give compliments that aren't related to strength or power.

I could see her laying on incestuous overtones without realizing it herself. Zuko is one of the few people she actually loves...in her own way.

No, I'm not projecting, I'm observing. Show this scene to 1000 people and tell me most of it would see it as incest. Then you may have a point. Go watch the scene, there is no hint at all Zuko is lusting for his sister, you're all just making this up.
I don't say it's wrong or something, I have no problems with fictional characters doing all sorts of crazy shit.
But I can't see any of this in the show. If you do, that's fine but then it's just something we don't agree on, no problem.

Not saying anything but since you brough up numbers, you seems to be the one in the minority here on if that scene has incest undertone or not.

That and 1000 is a low target, i'v seen Zucest post on Tumblr with like 5000 notes / likes and god know tumblr was never all that big (without counting the bots), same for sites like instagram, hell there is an instagram post with 1500 likes about the very scene we're talking about (yes, i'v checked on both sites, i'm that much of a sperg but hey, it's a subject i like.)

I didn't mean to turn this into some big argument and I never once said that Zuko wanted to fuck his sister in the show. Obviously neither Zuko or Azula wanted to fuck each other, Zuko was being cautious of her and Azula was being manipulative of him. But I distinctly remember the VA of Azula saying that the scene was framed with certain undertones very purposely by the showrunners themselves. I'm trying to find the source, but I think it was on Tumblr and is probably gone by now.

In the end it's subjective, people are going to have different interpretations of the scene. I personally thought that there were incest undertones on Azula's part even if she wasn't consciously doing it during that part and only during that part, but again that's just my interpretation.

It's not a big argument, it's a discussion and discussing the bedroom scene is just an extension of the previous discussion the OC in book 2 being unneccesary or not.

Well, I'm not surprised I'm in the minority here and I think neither are you. It's a forum full of pervs. I'm talking 1000 'standard' people, half of them women.
I really would like to see that source though, where the staff is speaking about this.

Half of ATLA's watcher aren't women to begin with and i included instagram, the most normie place you can ever find on the internet.

Also most Zucest fanartist happen to be women.

Zuko incest thing is weird to me, considering what Zuko is like, it's very hard for me to get aroused for the incest scenes despite I really like incest. I like the slave route more where I create my own custom character and do evil shit. If only the slave route also had pregnancy....

You can screw her and all three grills at the end of slave route but no impregnation of Azula ticked me off too. You can Joo Dee in slave 3 but not in love 3 kinda ridiculous.
