Welcome to the Azula Crushers Club, the home of the people who have recoognized Azula for what she is: one of the greatest, perhaps even the greatest fictional character ever to terrorize the good guys and live to tell the tale. Unlike it's predecessor, this club is going to be a very private affair - membership is by invitation only. Fortunatly, invitation will be not be hard to obtain - anyone seen to actively praise, defend, or in any way place in a positive light, glorify, or admit intense feelings for Azula will recieve an invitation. People who have not recieved an invitation but wish to join can pm me or one of the members of the Royal Family, or The Great Fire Sage, and will be instructed on the requirements, or, if they are deemed worthy, invited. Every member of the old club on the Avatar Forum retains membership.

I will be posting a link to this blog in my sig, and other members are encouraged (but not required) to do the same.

Having this club on my blog may prove to be temporary: I am still working on getting another one started on the forum. Until that happens however, we will be open and running here.

Because all we can use here is the comments, what we can do is much more limited than if it had been on a thread in the forum, which is why I still advocate working to re-open one there. As I said, it is my hope that this will only be temporary.

Until then, you know the drill: if it depicts Azula in a positive light, or offers genuine and insightful analysis of her character, it is welcome here. With luck, it will not be here much longer, but back on the forum, where it belongs.

Here are the current members:

Unless someone can find a better one, this AMV, created by the brilliant ravenfilange24 will serve as the equivalent of our anthem:

May Azula be with you, for Darth Vader was wrong. The power of The Force is insignifigant next to the epicness of Azula

Hurrah! The ACC is back! So, who here agrees that Azula is the most complex yet interesting woman ever to grace the television screens worldwide?
Posted Aug 20, 2008 9:30 am PT
I do!
Posted Aug 20, 2008 9:35 am PT
I'm going to be offline for the rest of the day - you guys will have to ahead without me.
Posted Aug 20, 2008 9:44 am PT
Why are you leaving? It wion't be as fun without you here.
Posted Aug 20, 2008 9:55 am PT
I love Azula I mean, she is the most interesting character in the show. Azula surprises us yet we know it's coming. She's a great contribution to the show.

Well, I have a request for anyone who has a youtube account or has the time to do this favor. I would really like to see a video about Azula, based on the song Defying Gravity from Wicked. Here's a link, the song starts at 3:50 onwards.

But remember, try to make it only if you have enough time or are able to.

Woo! It's back. Hopefully we can turn this meager blog post into a full blow discussion area. *worships pic*
Posted Aug 20, 2008 1:08 pm PT
Well, Azula's my favorite villain in the show, but I'd have a hard time calling her my #1 fictional baddie of all time. I just can't do it. Nice to see that you're keeping this up though.
Posted Aug 20, 2008 1:48 pm PT
Do you guys think Azula would kill Ozai to get to the throne? I think she would. Any comments?
Posted Aug 20, 2008 2:35 pm PT
This isn't as fun as on the forum I hope we can reopen all the clubs
Posted Aug 20, 2008 5:06 pm PT
Well, this is all we've got so we've got to live with it.

I've made great progress on my Azula fan fic. Only a lot more to go before the first draft of chapter 1 is nearly completed. ;p Deffinitely something to look forward to.
Posted Aug 20, 2008 7:37 pm PT
I'm so psyched for it. You had better post it the MINUTE you're done.

woo nice club!

I think she would as well, but she realizes her father is stronger than her and would most likely wait a few years. Unless of course she were to gain enough political power and kill Ozai with her Dai Li agents, but that's just me....

Since there isn't much elbow room here; here's a challenge we can work with: Write a Haiku about Azula! The person who can come up with the best Haiku gets a prize (mabye). For those who have forgotten what a Haiku is, it's a three line poem where the first line has 5 syllables, the second has 7, and the third has 5. Anything that fails to present Azula as the epitome of perfection is automatically disqualified.

Because I can't figure out how to quote posts...

"Do you guys think Azula would kill Ozai to get to the throne? I think she would. Any comments?"

I think she could, but that doesn't mean she would. To actually plot to kill her father would require an extremely powerful drive that would override her undying loyalty to him (which is now pretty much unarguable). Like I said, she's certainly capable of a coup. But to actually go against her father for a position that she never even mentioned in the entire series... That doesn't seem like her. To restate it, starting a coup to take power is totally in her character. It's easy to think that plotting against her father (and subsequently killing him) is in character because it has become hard to think otherwise.*

*I can elaborate on that.

Ugh, I feel like I butchered what I was trying to say. *cries about his abandoned essay*
Posted Aug 21, 2008 8:16 pm PT
It's actually notable that up until the finale, Azula had never expressed any desire whatsoever to become the new firelord. And when it was offered to her in "The Phoenix King", she acted as though she had never before considered the possibilty. She was very loyal to her father.

And PsychoPass, any contributions for the Haiku competition?

I'm workin' on it, I'm workin' on it. D: Art cannot be rushed. :p

Just Pm me when you need propaganda. (I might just be bored. XD)

Fire prodigy
Earned status of a legend
Azula the Great.


I wasn't sure if earned was two syllables or one.
Posted Aug 22, 2008 7:04 pm PT
Great job guys - keep em coming!
Posted Aug 22, 2008 7:19 pm PT
Hmmm.......this looks interesting.......and I am studying the Fire Nation and it's people.....particularly Azula........

Superior Girl
The Almighty Azula
Always a Goddess

Eh...it's the best I could do....considering I haven't researched much about her yet.

"It's actually notable that up until the finale, Azula had never expressed any desire whatsoever to become the new firelord. And when it was offered to her in "The Phoenix King", she acted as though she had never before considered the possibilty. "

That's true. I was surprised that SHE was surprised. But I think she was loyal to her father only because she borderline respected him and looked up to him. I mean, he was willing to kill his own son. She must think that's awesome. Also, he always favored Azula. I guess, now that I think about it, I don't think Azula would kill Ozai. I do think she'd consider it briefly, though.

I'm having poet's block. D: Someone give me some inspiration.

"I'm having a poet's block. Someone give me inspiration".

Depending on what type of "inspiration" you want:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM8KtqchLcA

I know a lot of us have already seen it, but it belongs on this thread

Failing that, I suggest watching the club's AMV anthem again. If anything can inspire someone to write poetry about Azula, it is that.
Posted Aug 22, 2008 9:42 pm PT
OK, I think I've come up with something.

Master of the flame.
Elegant, intelligent,
Princess Azula.

*beats on bongo drums* :p

Graceful Azula
vivacious, perfect and strong
A true dark goddess

Hmm I hope that doesn't sound to cheesey, lol. It was my first Haiku!
Posted Aug 23, 2008 2:21 am PT
Lmao i love us. excuse the typing im on my phone. Do you think azula could ever love someone like a significant other?
Posted Aug 23, 2008 7:34 am PT
I think she could, especially post-finale. The thing is that it would have to be a relationship purely on Azula's terms. But I wouldn't mind that. And I doubt anyone else here would either
Posted Aug 23, 2008 7:56 am PT
Lady of Lightning,
Never truly defeated,
Always to strike twice.

Well, it's the best I could do.
Posted Aug 23, 2008 11:25 am PT
"Lady of Lightning."

I like that a lot.

People, I need help! The RPG war rematch game has fired up again, and I am in need of lieutenants! I'm not looking for anyone who wants to play the game, just someone to delare their support for the Fire Nation. We have Azula...
Posted Aug 23, 2008 2:20 pm PT
I declare my support for the Fire Nation. Their knowledge of mechanical physics and of the other scientists gains them my respect.

Oh and Firebending too. \o/ How do I join in on the RPG?
Posted Aug 23, 2008 7:12 pm PT
All you have to do is go to the thread and say you want in. I've already signed you up as the chief Fire Sage. The game is on temporary hold at the moment, as we are waiting for all the members to arrive before we start the war.

Indeed, and you have to take into account that fire cannot build things for itself, like water and earth. The Fire Nation shows creativity beyond any other nation.

Agreed, Kratosgod69. To use War Minister Chin's words from The Drill;

Scientific ingenuity and raw destructive power.

I've been making great progress on my Azula fanfic. Chapter 1 is about half way finished and should be finalized as early as next week but no later than 2 weeks.
Posted Aug 24, 2008 7:45 pm PT
Looking forward to reading it
Posted Aug 24, 2008 8:39 pm PT
To anybody who is writing an Azula fanfic, I have this advice for you:

At some point, you must use the phrase "it's because I'm a people person". That line is so awsome, it has the potential to become a catch-phrase for Azula, the equivelant of Darth Vader's "I find your like of faith disturbing".
Posted Aug 24, 2008 9:21 pm PT
Meh.Ty Lee is cuter.
Posted Aug 25, 2008 11:51 am PT
"Meh.Ty Lee is cuter."

If you like vapid circus-freaks...then Ty Lee is definitely cute. If you like pure win...then Azula is the way to go.
Posted Aug 25, 2008 7:15 pm PT
*sees blasphemy*

*grins evilly*

This is why the ACC has a military arm. Everybody in the club with a military title, get him

And Ty Lee may be cuter, but Azula is hotter to the max, a way, way, way, way, way deeper character, several quadrillion times more awsome in just about every way a person can be awsome, etc, etc, etc, and so forth.

You will pay dearly for contaminating my best blog ever.

One of the things about Azula that I love the most is her sheer, utter, nerve. As far as guts and boldness go, she surpasses almost everyone else in the series. The way she entered Ba Sing Se is a perfect example of this. Azula was willing to walk right into a city that she had just attempted to capture, trusting that some face paint and a fancy costume would conceal her identity, and demand to see the earth King. Pretty much everything she did while in Ba Sing Se demonstrates what sheer, utter, guts she has. During the Day of Black Sun, Azula was willing to expose herself, without bending, to the Avatar and two of his friends - with nothing but her own non-bending abilities and 2 Dai Lee agents to protect her. Later in that episode she calmly sits there and smiles as an enraged Sokka waves a sword in her face. Compared to the naturally cautious Katara, the demure Suki, and the flighty Ty Lee, I view this as a definite plus in Azula's character. Anyone agree with me?
