I could have sworn Azula was 15 (she strikes me as 15). But Nick.com says that she's 14. Nick isn't exactly very accurate with its info so is Azula really 14?

Until we hear something definitive -- within the show itself, or from Mike and Bryan -- Nick's information is all we have to go by. And I do think she's fourteen. Just think: it makes her seem all the more impressive! When I was fifteen, I didn't remember feeling any different than when I was fourteen... not really... I just knew I was a year older; I don't think it makes that much of a difference in the grand scheme of things. She's brilliant and remarkably mature, no matter what her age.

I've never seen Azula as fourteen. She acts, and looks much older then fourteen. From the flashbacks we've seen from Zuko Alone. She looks not even a year, or even going as far as saying a year and a half, younger then Zuko. Which by the flashbacks makes Zuko around eight or nine. And Azula seven or eight.
Meaning she and him has the same age differentces as Sokka and Katara. A year. So...that would make Azula around sixteen. If Zuko is now officially seventeen.
Rule Of The Day: Don't always trust Nick.com.

Well according to what we know semi officially Zuko is 15 in season 1, but might be 16 by season 2 (we do get some time reference here) Zuko does look and act 16 and according other to semi official sources Azila is one year younger then Zuko. so if Zuko is 15/16 Azula might be 14/15

azula was probably 14 when the avatar was found....its been about 3/4's of a year by then so im guessing that all the characters have grown a year older...except zhao

Hrm... at this point I think the only "official" information on *all* the characters' ages is from Nick.com. If I'm not mistaken, we've only learned three characters' ages from the show dialogue itself - Aang (12 as of "The Boy in the Iceberg"), Toph (12 in "The Blind Bandit"), and Zuko (16 as of "Avatar Roku: Winter Solstice Part 2"). I'd actually like to see some birthday parties for some of the characters.

well the character ages on nick.com are the only things I take as official as the rest looks like it was written by a mindless 3 year old.

I think Azula and Zuko are twins. Both 16.

They could be, but there are signs that Azula might be younger. We really dont know.

A lot of disbelief, huh?
I'll admit to skepticism when I first saw it on Nick.com. But the more I thought about it, the easier it was to accept.
Please remember, Azula is not an ordinary teenager. Her maturity and intellect is astounding. It's in the way she carries herself. And, yeah, she does appear older; perhaps late-teens... but how do we gauge the age of someone's appearance? Is there a standard set for how someone "should" look at fourteen? I've been fooled by kids who I thought to be in their early-twenties when they were really sixteen or seventeen.
When you think of an average fourteen-year-old, you probably envision someone who lacks the maturity and poise of Azula. But she isn't average -- in fact, none of them are. Growing up in a time of war and suffering has aged everyone to a degree. Azula does stick out more, though. She wants to project herself a certain way -- as an adult. She has no interest in the usual teenage pursuits. As a whole, I didn't at her age, either. Maybe that's part of why I don't have a problem believing it.
I really wish Mike and Bryan would come out with an official statement and put this debate to rest.

Until Mike or Bryan or anyone else is offical I'll trust Nick (to a small extent), even though I wish that the characters would have a birthday or somethin
Honestly I thought Zuko and Azula were twins, this was before the statement was made that she was younger x.x

Yeah, well..It's hard for me to believe that she's younger than me. She looks/acts more like she's 18 or 19.
