Zuko isn’t the main character, but he’s by far the most complex and developed in this animated series. He starts off the series vying to capture the titular Avatar and regain the pride of his father. Soon, he realizes the importance of the Avatar in achieving world peace and joins the quest of the heroes. The series reveals more of Zuko’s past struggles than of anyone else’s, making his character journey one of the most beautiful things to come out of children’s television in many years.
