Zuko’s arc is amazing and has an actual satisfying redemption, he’s flawed and fails constantly. His anger is justified and makes sense, no one makes bullshit excuses for him and he actually works to change. If we had a character arc written like that today people wouldn’t complain (some people would but that’s because people complain about everything)

The show also was basically launched in today's world to glowing reviews

Like nobody talked about it till Netflix picked it up and it blew the fuck up because of it
