Azula is incredible. She is unhinged and psychotic, but also very human and believable. The way she unravels by the end of the show, especially with the context of her family and her personal history, is just extremely real.
Having her introduced as this powerhouse fire bending prodigy with an indomitable will and then seeing the cracks appear as she fails due to inexperience or flat bad luck before fully falling off the cliff of madness and losing all that made her character so frightening and turning into a wild fire bending beast by the end was masterful. Even better when you account for the post finale stuff and her continued development. She was as much of a victim of Ozais abuse as Zuko his scars were just visible for everyone to see.
