Okay, so Avatar Roku is an ancestor of Prince Zuko, and Aang is the current Avatar, so he's Roku in a past life...
Does that mean that Aang is somehow related to Zuko?
Seriously, it's bugged me since that episode of Avatar where you see Roku's past. What do you think?

Hm, I wouldn't think that Aang and Zuko are related blood-wise, but I would say they are linked in a way through that Avatar connection. Kind of like six degrees of separation, except much shorter. ^^;
There isn't much (or, anything?) known about Aang's parents or how the next Avatar is chosen except that it's a child born within a week of the Avatar's death in the next nation of the cycle, but... to have two consecutive Avatars be close blood related to each other seems like very tiny odds in my opinion.

I figured they couldn't be blood related, but I couldn't help if Aang's past life made them related in a different way. At the very least, it got me wondering. Especially because it put Zuko in weird circumstance. It's like "I hunted after the reincarnated spirit of my great-grandfather", yeah you know he's got issues. But I've always wondered who Aang's parents were. It seems that all the kids were raised by the monks so... what happens to the parentals?

A story of Aang's parents would be nice and more of the lifestyle of the air nomads should be explained more. Since the majority of the airbenders are monks makes you wonder how did they reproduce.
Also Aang and Zuko probably of course wouldn't be related by blood but they are related spiritually.
