CLASS: Anti-villain, I guess? Unlike most villains in Avatar, Mai doesn't have any fantastical racism or evil agendas that she's pushing. She's just doing it for shits and giggles. With that, she's capable of working for evil people, but even then, she's mostly apathetic to the job. Once she quits working for Azula, she actually assists Team Avatar.
HOUSING: Please pick for me the wackiest housemates you can find!
BACKGROUND:http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Mai here you go!!!
PERSONALITY:
In terms of western animation, there is not a single character who has given less fucks than Mai from Avatar: The Last Airbender. It's true. Absolutely nothing seems to enthrall or capture the attention of Mai. Born from a noble family and raised to be almost

Despite being in the Earth Kingdom and dealing with its inhabitants, Mai only gives them the standard nasty attitude that she reserves for everyone. She doesn't seem to have any prejudiced views on races in the Avatar world specifically; she's an egalitarian in the sense that she just hates everyone equally! Also of note, despite her obviously lethal combat style, she never seems to go for direct fatalities. She rather disable and disarm opponents. Unlike most villains, Mai's does what she does simply doesn't have anything better to do. Even while working for the villain, Mai had her limits where she put her foot down because it was a conflict of personal interest. This ranged from getting dirty, as when she staunchly refused to get into a pipe system that would lead to her getting covered in slurry despite the possible physical ramifications of facing Azula in combat. In this instance, Mai even states that Azula can toss all the lightning she wants, she's not getting in that pipe. Other examples of her just flat out going "no." and just not giving a fuck include refusing to fight Team Avatar when they try to rescue the Earth Kingdom's bear. Rather than engage Team Avatar and successfully do her duty, Mai instead is so bored with having to watch the bear she forfeits it to Team Avatar without a fight. Perhaps the biggest piece of evidence for her status as The World's Most Half-Assed Villain(tm) is when she attacked Azula and defied her so Zuko and Team Avatar can escape the
Many failed attempts and a highly disappointed mother later, Jing Mei realizes that the only thing that she wanted was to be her own person. She soon finds out that to do this she must rebel against her mother. Jing Mei gets so caught up in rebelling that she loses sight of what was originally the most important thing to her. This leads her on a deconstructive path of not giving full effort. Jing Mei thought that her mother was the only thing keeping her from reaching her full potential, while it was really her the entire

Although, she is still a conformist, she wants to do it her own way making her both. Jing-Mei’s mother is a conformist who just wants her daughter to be a prodigy so she can have a name for herself. Amy Tan gives her mother a dialogue that manifestly shows that she is trying to gloat about her daughter “If we ask Jing-Mei to wash dishes she hear nothing but music.” (104). Jing-Mei realizes she is being used and didn't like what she was force upon doing.
While Jing-mei’s mother had that view on success, Jing-mei believed that if she did her best, even if she was not perfect, she was being successful. Jing-mei expressed her view when she said, “she’s pretty good. Maybe she’s not the best, but she’s trying hard.” This difference in views contributed to the main conflict between Jing-mei and her mother due to it being a different view on what it takes to be
She was kind, talented, and successful with a rich danna who she probably loved. She was surpassed by Sayuri, her apprentice, as she became more successful than her even though she did question geisha beliefs often. Mameha and Sayuri, later on in the movie, were great examples of geisha when they were forced to face the war closer to home. Many geisha had to sell their luxurious belongings, replace their fine kimonos with slacks, and work in factories to survive. They were both lucky to have been able to survive and experience some sort of resemblance to geisha life once
What makes a “top-notch” villain name? The arch nemesis of Harry Potter, Voldemort, and the betrayer of King Arthur, Mordred, would say it is the sinister sounding “mor” in their names. The big question is what makes “mor” give off a malevolent vibe. It is found that the use of “mor” in a villain name is usually because of the root meaning, the way it sounds, or even just the author’s pure spontaneous name-making.
“It’s not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.” Said by Bruce Wayne, explains how he feels about what he does as Batman. His actions as Batman prove him as an anti-hero. Christopher Nolan portrays Batman as an antihero through isolation of the character, and a dim setting of the movie.
In the world that we are living in, there are many injustices happening everyday. Although every country have a legal system, some criminals still have not been arrested or received a proper punishment. Many people believe in a savior who will come someday to bring justice for them, and punish criminals and sinners. They make stories and movies about superheroes who come to help weak people to fight against the evil. People usually have a conception that a protagonist of a story should be a good person; however, there are many stories with an anti-hero protagonist who does both good and bad things. Base on people’s point of view, that kind of protagonist can be either good or evil. My most favorite book that has an anti-hero protagonist is
In addition, the virtue theory is said to be properly concrete, as it grounds morality in facts about human nature in comparison to other theories which ground morality in subjective principles or in abstract principles of reasoning. In relation to human psychology, the theory is said to be more accurate as it concentrates on less conscious aspects of motivation such as habits or short-term goals. Whereas, theories such as the deontology and utilitarianism place emphasis on decision making in relation to principles or rules. As such, it is often argued that the virtue theory offers a more united and comprehensive conception of moral life, which goes far beyond ones likes and dislikes, needs and wants and, in general, what type of person
Imagine a promotion someone worked all their life to get was ripped away at the last second by someone else. The promotion was something they had put all of their effort towards getting, and they rightfully deserved it. This is how the character, Iago, in William Shakespeare's play Othello felt. Instead of quietly cursing the person who gave away his position, Iago acted against the main character, Othello, in order to satisfy his thirst for revenge. Through Iago’s quest for revenge, he manipulates the other characters, acts on his psychopathic anger, and impersonates being a friend to all of the characters. This reveals his complexity as a villain and enables him to justify his actions and get what he wants.
Various studies have been conducted through centuries on the numerous types of emotional and behavioral disorders. From today 's research of the disorders, mankind as a whole has a better understanding and can adapt to situations when under pressure of the existence of a disorder. Emotional and behavioral disorders impact today’s system of learning. Jean Cheng Gorman suggests from her research that having a deeper understanding of the emotional and behavioral disorders is the best way of maintaining the control of productive educational learning. To understand how both emotional and behavioral disorders affect the relationship between teachers and their students’ education, all diagnosed cases should be examined thoroughly. This paper explains several types of disorders that may occur and the studies of credited authors that proposed their thoughts on how to adapt and conquer different disorders to allow an environment fulfilled with learning.
