I've actually done this before, but I'm really off my rocker and doing it again. For some reason.
Please throw anything at me! I would LOVE to talk about characters endlessly.
Pick a fictional character from a fandom I know and I'll answer the following questions to the best of my abilities:
1) What is your opinion of this character? If you like, explain why you like him/her. Likewise if you dislike the character.
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Do they grip you emotionally?
4) How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
5) Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by their relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
6) Is there anything about the character you would change?
7) If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how do you see yourself interacting with him/her? (Would you get along well? Fall in love with? Dislike? Friendly rivalry? etc etc)
8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
9) Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about (if you dislike) to someone whose new to the fandom?
10) Is this character popular with the fanbase?

I have kind of mixed feelings on Mai? I LOVED her when she was first introduced - I was really enthused to see her type of character (in an american cartoon, no less) being used in a non-stereotypical way...then it seemed like they kind of diverted from that.
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
In small ways, yeah? I mean she pretty much gives it up so the main cast can escape prison, that's pretty important.
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Do they grip you emotionally?
Half-half, she'd be easier for me to access if a few things were different, but I don't dislike the concept of her.
4) How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
HARD TO SAY. I have not really sunk into the Avatar fandom that much but there are some really fucking AWESOME examples of it here and there, which I indulge in, and then seem to ignore the bulk of it I might find more upsetting XD;;;
5) Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by their relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
Here we go...
Tai Lee/Mai all the way. I was really intrigued by this right off, they have all the right chemistry and the right level of comfortable affection versus okay not-THAT-comfortable-am-I setup. I hate to sound gay but they go together like sunshine and rain, and in the end I'd think they'd make each other really happy.
Mai/Zuko, sadly, WAS interesting to me BEFORE it actually happened. Her relationship with Zuko was the beginning of the end for me, it wasn't at all the back and forth tension I was envisioning, they both kind of fell into it, and I found that hard to swallow and harder to support. I guess you could say I ship Mai/Zuko, but I would have to see the awkward development stage that I (in my bastard way) think SHOULD have been there, given the really fretfully socially inept aspects to both their personalities.
6) Is there anything about the character you would change?
The whole Mai/Zuko thing, again. Nothing else really needs to change, in essence I do love her :(
7) If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how do you see yourself interacting with him/her? (Would you get along well? Fall in love with? Dislike? Friendly rivalry? etc etc)
I think I'd be friends with her, actually. I'm toned down enough that I wouldn't get on her nerves, and I'd find her pretty cool. Provided I'm fire nation wait I'm earth nation okay she'd hate me.
8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
Nah, but that's not really her fault...
9) Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about (if you dislike) to someone whose new to the fandom?
I don't think I would do that with most characters...
10) Is this character popular with the fanbase?
Yeah, I think so? Yeah. Yeah, she is.

the awkward stage of the Maiko's building relationship was brought to us in comic form and it was so litttleeee :C They could've expanded and explored it so well, it is a shame.
10) Is this character popular with the fanbase?

I love and miss Zhao so much.
But yeah back to the topic at hand I feel betrayed because I really got SO EXCITED by Mai/Zuko and the flashback history was SO CUTE and then it just punched me in the face with lame and boring. It should never have been lame and boring, ever.
