The Life of Mai: What Happened After the Series? (Avatar Explained)

may is oftentimes skipped over in the Avatar series so I think it's time with your character justice I'm gonna go through all media that she appears in gathering information before during and after the original series I'm also gonna focus on what happened to Mei and Zuko after the series ended so let's get this video started as I explained the entire life of Mei [Music] May was born two okano and Michi she was born and raised in the Fire Nation but had no fire bending abilities herself Mays family had a lot of money and were one of the more prestigious Fire Nation families because of this Mei had to be well behaved and keep her head down to avoid scandals or a family getting a bad name she only spoke unless spoken to and if she disobeyed she would get in a lot of trouble with her mother may rarely disobeyed however she did as she was told despite the fact that her parents gave her everything that she wanted she resented them because they forced her to stay silent and to be the perfect daughter she hated living in the Fire Nation and kept herself saying by throwing knives at her bedroom wall she did this mostly out of boredom but this soon became a very useful self-taught skill when she got good enough she began to always carry knives arrows or whatever else she could throw with her mae attended the Royal Fire Academy for Girls where she met Ty Lee and Azula who quickly became her best friends one night Mei had a Zula and Ty Lee over for a sleepover and Azula convinced the other two to steal mochi from May's mother there was meant for mais grandmother Mei decided not to eat any because she had just been told the story of the Comerica game ancient spirits that kidnapped children who misbehave even though she didn't eat any may still fear the spirits coming for her she talked in her sleep saying that the Camaro car gay we're going to get her when Mei was around the age of 10 she developed a crush on azula's brother Zuko Azula realized this one day while they were playing at the palace she saw me blush as Zuko walked by and as EULA decided to humiliate both of them she made Mei balance an apple on her head and she set it on fire this close you go to tackle her into the fountain and land on top of each other when Ty Lee said that they were cute together may god up and was about to call them a name but she stopped herself remembering her parents wish for her to behave perfectly may continue to have a crush on Zuko but didn't know how to handle it this led to her throwing mud in his face to get his attention the two eventually warmed up to each other and Zuko saw a side of Mei that most others didn't see a happy and fun side the two started dating and made each other very happy this all ended however when Zuko was burned and banished by his father Mei was very sad to see him go but knew that she had to move on if she was seen with or talked about Zuko the banished and disowned Prince it would affect her family's reputation the thing that she had to think about all her life with every choice that she made when they was about 15 she became an older sister to TomTom surely after tom-toms Barris mais father became the governor of Omashu a city that once belonged to the earth Kingdom but had been overthrown by the Fire Nation the family left the Fire Nation and moved to Omashu which may hate it even more may was extremely bored there but excitement finally hit when earth Kingdom rebels started to fight back may try to pursue the Avatar who she thought tried to kill her and her family but he got away it later looked as though the rebels at kidnapped TomTom and they made a deal to trade king bumi to get TomTom back during this may got an unexpected visit from missoula and Ty Lee Azula estimated join her and Ty Lee to capture Zuko and his uncle Iroh Mae agreed but had doubts due to the fact that it was Zuko her ex-boyfriend well as Lula was in Omashu she told mace father that he was doing a terrible job and renamed Omashu the city of new Ozai she then said that Mae would handle the hostage trade instead of huka know because Azula thought that he would just mess it up right before they were about to make the trade however they realized that it was an unfair trade and a fight broke out the avatar and his friends got away but they kept King Bumi and custody the avatar later safely returned tom-toms amazed parents however after that Azula told Mei and tightly that their mission had broadened now they were not only going after his you go in Iroh but the avatar as well when Ty Lee said it would be interesting to see Zuko again may look the other way and smiled Mei was a bit conflicted about going after his you go her ex-boyfriends Zuko had a special place in her heart and she had a soft side for him in a lot of ways she was happy that they were going after the avatar because that gave her more time to prepare for seeing Zuko the three girls later caught up with team avatar and Mei and Ty Lee fought Katara and Sokka Mei inside Lee won but Mei was disappointed at how underwhelming winning was Mei Azula in tightly later tried to penetrate the walls of Ba Sing se using a giant Fire Nation drill Mei inside Li were able to fight off earth Kingdom soldiers when they tried to stop them but when team avatar stepped in once again a big fight broke out Mei dropped out of the fight however when she was told to go down a slurry pipeline' filled with gross water and rocks mixed together team avatar ultimately ended up stopping them from getting through the wall to the disappointment of Azula Mei herself didn't really care though the girls got a second chance of infiltrating Ba Sing se but this time they decided to do it from the inside they came face-to-face with and fought the Kyoshi warriors may using her knives helped Azula and tightly easily beat them they stole their armor and dressed up as the Kyoshi warriors in order to get inside Ba Sing se they fooled the earth King and eventually overthrew Ba Sing se in the name of the Fire Nation after Azula captured Iroh almost killed the avatar and told Zuko he could come home welcome this Prince the mission that she had recruited Mei and Ty Lee for was over it was time to return home to the Fire Nation Zuko however was reluctant to go and Azula with the help of Ty Lee made a plan to use Mei to entice you go and to returning home they set up a giant dinner with live music and told both of them if they were invited to a dinner with everyone when they got there however it was just the two of them they decided not to let the food go to waste and when Zuko and Mei hated the music Zuko yelled at him to leave which may greatly appreciate it but su eventually decided to leave and go for a walk while they were walking through Ba Sing se a girl named Jin came up to the two of them and called Zuko Li Mei got a bit jealous when she realized that the girl had feelings for Zuko and that the two had gone on a date before her jealousy became even more prominent when Zuko said that Mei was just a knife thrower from a circus may embrace this however and said that she would show GaN Shi mockingly told Lee to stand over by the fountain she placed the fish on Zuko's head broke off an icicle and threw it like a knife which pierced the fish may then let Jin try and when she threw it it knocks Zuko into the fountain Mei went over to him and said smiling now we're even referencing the time when Zuko knocked her in the fountain when she was 10 when they were away from gen Mei laughed at Zuko and when Zuko said that she could have gotten him killed she said whatever Lee wen Zuko touched her she blushed and it was clear that the two were enjoying themselves Zuko told her that he missed seeing this happy and uplifting side of Mei Mei told him that a lot had changed since the days that she would throw mud in his face but she added that not everything had changed and she leaned in to kiss suka when Mei Tai Lee and Azula were about to leave Azula saw Mei and Zuko together and called them lovebirds Mei escucho if he was coming back with them but Zuko still wasn't sure as they were boarding however Zuko said that he was coming home on the ship home Mei comforted Zuko when he was worried about returning to the nation she told him to stop worrying and kissed him when they returned May and Zuko had a wonderful relationship one weekend May along with Zuko Azula and Ty Lee all went to ember island to Azula and Zuko's beach house during this trip May and Zuko struggled a bit with the relationship the group went to an arcade on the islands where Zuko won a stuffed tiger monkey when he asked me if she wanted it she replied saying what is my face tell you clearly pointing out that she did not want it Azula called them over to an arcade game and Zuko asked what it was Mae responded with a lot of attitude well geez you go this is an arcade you think maybe it's a game when Zuko lost he destroyed the game by setting it on fire and as they walked away from the owner freaking out Mae said that they should have put a warning on it when they went to the actual beach Zuko tried to give me a shell and Mae asked why she would want that Zuko again tried to be nice to Mae by getting her ice cream but when it fell on her lap it was another miss Mae was still in a bad mood by the time that they went to a party that night both of them were in a bad mood Mae made Zuko go get her food and while he did a guy came up to her Zuko got jealous and pushed the guy away Mae got mad and told him that he was impatient hot-headed and angry Zuko responded saying that at least he feels something unlike her he told her that she was just a big blah Mae turned away from Zuko and told him that it was over well on the beach everyone started opening up and when it was Mae's turn she said that she didn't have any sob stories because her childhood was easy and normal she said that she was a rich only child who got whatever she wanted but then she added in a much sadder voice as long as I behaved and sat still and didn't speak unless spoken to my mother said I had to keep out of trouble we had my dad's political career to think about Azula then broke this down and said well that's it then you had a controlling mother who had certain expectations and if you strayed from them you were shut down that's why you were afraid to care about anything and while you can't express yourself Mae then snapped proving Azula that she could express herself by screaming at her to leave her alone she then threw Zuko off when he tried to comfort her saying that she was still mad at him after Zuko opened up however Mae went up to him and told Zuko that she cared about him and the two made up and got back together with two continued to have a good relationship when they went back home unfortunately this can to an end when Zuko realized his true destiny he left behind a letter from a saying goodbye and as he looked at a picture of May he said he was sorry this broke Mays heart she didn't get a chance to say goodbye and she was mad that Zuko didn't have the courage to say goodbye in person she became very sad and upset confiding in her family this included her uncle who was the warden at the prison the boiling rock Zuko eventually got locked up at that very prison while on a mission with Sokka the warden told his niece that Zuko was there and she went to confront him she pulled out the lighter and told him that he could have at least looked her in the eye when he ripped out her heart she told Zuko that he was betraying his country but Zuko told her that he didn't see it that way when the riot started Zuko was forced to lock me in a Cell and as the two looked into each other's eyes there was nothing but pain and regret this moment affected me so much that when she was let out she betrayed her uncle the guards and Azula to save Zuko when Azula confronted her Mae told her that she miscalculated and that she loves you co more than she feared Azula when Azula made a move toward Mei Tai Lee jumped in and she locked the Zula to save Mei Mei entirely were captured and as lula told the guards to take them somewhere where she would never have to see their faces again and told the guards to let them rot may inside lee were taken to the same prison where the Kyoshi warriors that they had defeated to infiltrate Ba Sing se where they all became friends and after the war ended mais uncle pulled some strings to get them all out Mei forgave Zuko for everything and the two got back together they became friends with team avatar as well and enjoyed sea with them and I rose tea shop when Zuko was crowned Fire Lord they continued to date but during that time Zuko began to confide in Mei less and less about one year after Zuko was crowned he left the Fire Nation on a mission without saying goodbye to Mei Mei was furious and when he returned she called him out on it she told him that she had to figure out where he went from the soldiers posted around the capital they said that he was doing it again and told Zuko that if he's having problems then he comes at her Zuko promised her that he would do better something that meant a lot to Mei Mei then pointed out that he had been having trouble sleeping and said that she had gotten him new bodyguards the new guards were the Kyoshi warriors who may had been locked up with at the end of the war Mei was once again let down by suka when Suki told her that Zuko was going to visit his father and prison she didn't care that he was visiting him she did care that he didn't tell her Zuko told her that even though we kept screwing up he still loved her Nathan told him that lately he's loved his secrets more than her she said that he would have an easier time keeping them when he was alone when Zuko asked what she was telling him she bowed and said sadly goodbye Fire Lord as she walked out Zuko streamed after her ordering her to come back but Mae kept walking Zuko had once again broken her heart after the break-up mais aunt hired her to work in a flower shop hoping that being around flowers all day would cheer her out while working a boy named kilo came into the shop he said that he was looking for a bouquet of flowers for someone special and said that he wanted it to say you're beautiful when they gave it to him he gave it back to her and said that she was the special someone he then asked her out on the date she sighed and said that she gets off work at 5:00 Mae's aunt was thrilled by this and may was just happy to have something to do that night she had been thinking about Zuko a lot even right before kilo had come into the store she knew it would be nice to have something to get her mind off of that on the day kilo made me smile twice she then told him that smiles were hard to come by these days and kilo asked if that was because of her breakup with Zuko they told him smiling that she didn't know if she should be creeped out or flattered that he knew so much about her kilo then took her to a sketchy stairwell which may refuse to go down how she was leaving to go home she heard a voice as kilo if he had accomplished his mission may recognise the voice that had said this at once it was her father she went down with kilo and shrieked and her father who Cano started bad-mouthing Zuko and may defended him her father then said that life wasn't easy since Sukho took the throne but Mae reminded him that Zuko offered him a position in government which he refused you canö told me about his group of rebels including kylo ho who formed the new Ozai Society and they were going to overthrow Zuko to get Ozai back on the throne he said that she knew him better than anyone and that she could give them the edge that they needed to take him down when TomTom showed up Mae was outraged that her father had taken her little brother to a place like this Mae told her father that she and TomTom were leaving she began to fight the entire society and her father screamed to capture them but not to hurt them Mae defeated them with ease however when kilo came up to her and said that he really did like her she punched him square in the face and told him to consider that the end of their day her father was the last one standing and he called out to her but may told him goodbye as she walked out with TomTom the next day when she was at the flower shop she ignored her little brother and aunt as she sadly looked at a picture of her and Zuko she had heard that Zuko went to search for his mom and even though they were broken up she wished the best for Zuko and hoped that he would find her when Mae told her mother about her father Society Michi realized the do kana was endangering their whole family and she packed up and left all of them moved in with Mays and who she was working for above the flower shop a few weeks later she started seeing kilo again in secret trying to get dirt on her father to put a stop to his terror one night Kiley visited her and the two caught up made sold tightly about kilo when how he worked for her father tightly judged her for using someone who liked her that much all to protect her ex-boyfriend may prefer to look at it as her doing her duty as a loyal citizen she told tightly that Kela was coming and asked idly de teller if kilo was trustworthy kilo then arrived and may introduce him to Ty Lee kilo told him the newest Ozai society plan and Mei pretended to flirt with him calling him babe and complimenting him any chance that she got Tydeus kilo why he took such a risk betraying the society and he said it was because you don't meet a girl like Mei every day after he left Ty Lee told me that he was trustworthy they made a plan to protect Zuko and his family but they found out that kilo gave them wrong information mate sadly and Iroh scooped in in the last second to save them this was the first time that Zuko and Mei had seen each other since their breakup and they fought side by side in harmony when they confronted kilo Zuko not knowing anything about him or his relationship with Mei vouched for him saying that he betrayed the society and freed him so that he could save his family may even hurt her father's voice behind one of the masked men when she confronted him two other masked men came up behind her and kylo saved her Mei mocked kilo calling him babe and said that both she and her father played him for a patsy they were then attacked and kylo fell and broke his leg May's father then came up to her and told her that everything he's done was because he loved her and their family he said he wanted their family back together but as long as Zuko was on the throne they weren't safe who Kondo told her that if there was no truth to what he was saying then she should arrest him right there but Mei decided to let him go free she then caught up with kilo he was trying to walk with his broken leg and back home may refuse to go out with kilo until his leg was healed because she thought that casts were unattractive a month later when he got the cast off the two started dating on one day he told her that all of his life he wanted to belong to something to feel complete which is why he joined a father Society but now he didn't feel that way because he wanted to belong to someone as he said this may leaned in and kissed him to Mays horror however she watched what looked like the Camorra kaga spirits kidnap her little brother Tom Tom she tried to stop them but they got away when they were giving them report Zucco burst in and said that he was there to help when suger got Hank to help them may his father burst in and said that it was Mae's fault that Tom Tom was kidnapped as he her father would have been able to protect their family despite kilos protests to this Mei believed her father's words and they ate her up inside after her father was escorted out Zuka West may if her father was part of the society that attacked him and his family a few weeks back and she lied saying no he wasn't kilo pulled her aside after this and said that her father should go to prison but may thinking that her father was the only one that could protect her family after this kidnapping said that he couldn't do that from prison May along with kilo Zuko and Aang went into the catacombs to learn more about the Camorra kaga spirits while they were opening a wall kilo helped Mae by holding her which made Zuko jealous she continued to compliment kilo and hold his arm Zuko later swooped in though and gave her some light when she was trying to read a scroll here the two at a moment with her eyes met it was clear that they still had a spark and both had feelings for the other Zuko eventually got a moment alone with Mae and at first the two did not know what to say to each other Zuko then mentioned kilo and said that it was good to see her happy or at least happy-ish he then told me that he missed her Mei snapped and asked why he would say something like that she yelled at him and said that they had their chance but now it was time to move on Zuko then asked if she felt the same way about kilo that she had felt for him she told him to stop but he pressed her to answer the question Mei turned around and screamed you broke my heart suit though twice and the stupid thing is I let you like a complete I let you she then explained his new Co that kilo liked her a lot more than she liked him and said that that's how it had to be this way she would never get hurt the way Zuko heard her again when they got back they returned to a mob led by mais father they went up to her father and said that she knew he was hiding something he told her that he didn't know what she was talking about as he walked away he told me that when she realized the truth she knew where to find him megha mad at Zuko for yelling at a man whose child had just been kidnapped and let her anger out by venting the kilo kilo then comforted her and kissed her may thank them for everything and it was clear that she was starting to have stronger feelings for him despite this however when she returned to a room she pulled out an old picture of her and Zuko when Zuko's little sister was kidnapped Mae went to see Zuko and gave him a hug to comfort him she then came cleaned a suit go about a father being in the new Ozai Society and told everyone that she could tell that he was hiding something from the last time that she saw him may later begs you go to make the guards free kilo who was being arrested with the other new Ozai Society members Zuko and Kela went head to head and so Mae broke up their little standoff Mae along with kilo Zuko and Aang found where the kids were hidden and fought the people dressed up as the Camorra cocky spirits man Azula fought one on one and when Azula got the upper hand kilo jumped in when Azula was about to give a big blow on kilo mae begged her not to Zuko put his pride aside and jumped in to save them which may really appreciate it when Zuko went to fight Azula Mae and kilo saved Aang and the kids Mae became very happy when TomTom ran say where she told her little brother that she missed him so much Mae and TomTom said goodbye to their father as he got locked up Mae told him that he deserves to go to prison but said that he was brave in the end and told him that that was how she was going to choose to remember him her father responded saying that that was more than he deserved after everything that happened Mae decided to break up with kilo as he laughed May put her head in her hands and began to cry for now this is all we know may break up with kilo opens the door for Zuko to come back into the picture the two clearly still have chemistry and a lot of history and nostalgia for both of them came out throughout this comic I think that's all we'll see of her father for now I think it's going to be in prison for a while but I could be wrong as soon as we get more information on Mae's character I'll be sure to make another video about it so stay tuned for that thank you so much for watching
