Akainu vs. Azula who is the better villain or Character (not powerscaling)

[Mjolnir]

Who is the better villain/character and why

 

[Bob74h]

azula is the better villain
she has personal connection with zuko where akainu has no personal connection with any of the main characters

 

[Jellymon]

she has personal connection with zuko where akainu has no personal connection with any of the main characters

I'd argue that by killing Ace he did gain the connection. Even before then, he showed interest in both Dragon and Garp, both of which are related to the main character.

 

[Konstantis]

Akainu in hundreds times better. He is not just crazy or desiring power. He is a soldier who is doing his duty

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Azula negs.
Azulas character is so well defined, explained, and used that her rise and subsequent fall are the perfect way to mirror Zukos fall then subsequent rise.

Akainu isn’t half the character Azula was

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Azula from ATLA?

She's a way better villain than Akainu.

 

[Mjolnir]

Atla is a stinky piec2 a dog turd

 

[SkySanji]

One has a concluded story the other doesn't

 

[TheAncientCenturion]

Azula lol. Akainu's interesting and fun to watch, but he doesn't compare to Azula in her first four episodes.

This is not fair, Azula's arc is finished. We didnt even know Akainu's past.
