10 Pieces Of Zuko & Mai Fan Art That Are Totally Romantic

Zuko and Mai from Avatar: The Last Airbender are one of the few canon couples throughout the series, alongside Sokka and Suki and, later, Katara and Aang. Mai was introduced during season two, and it was established almost immediately that she had some deeper feelings for the Fire Nation Prince since they were children, feelings that were revealed to be returned.

Mai traveled with Azula and had smiled at the idea of getting to see Zuko again, even though she was technically supposed to be hunting him down as a traitor of the Fire Nation. But Mai probably had other plans. Later in the series, Zuko and Mai form a relationship that many fans totally got behind. They’re both brooding, apathetic teenagers who totally fit into the “goth kids” aesthetic. Here are some amazing and cute fan art of “Maiko.”

10 The One Good Thing In The Fire Nation

10 Pieces Of Zuko & Mai Fan Art That Are Totally Romantic

During Zuko’s time in the Fire Nation, while being extremely conflicted about his choices thus far, he had commented that Mai and their relationship with one another was the one good thing in this era for him. Mai constantly kept him grounded. She knew something was wrong and tried to soothe his woes whenever she could. Artist, Ds-Hina has made this totally adorable piece that shows how cute this couple is and how soft they are with one another. They look into each other’s eyes as they’re about to kiss while totally embracing one another.

This piece done by Kthap on DeviantArt is another adorable fan art that shows how soft these two are with one another. This fact is especially cute when fans remember how “rough around the edges” Zuko is with pretty much everyone else, even his uncle. Mai also seems to pretty much hate everyone and is usually pretty cold-hearted. Yet, with Zuko, it’s a different story. She loves him and he loves her, and viewers can easily tell by the way they embrace one another here.

8 Fire Lord & Lady

While many fans of Avatar are unsure of who Zuko ended up with due to the lack of mention in The Legend of Korra, many fans just assume Zuko and Mai ended up together and had Izumi with one another. Izumi lightly resembles Mai and it would make total sense. In the comics that take place after the series finishes, Mai and Zuko break up due to some pretty big trust issues.

But Mai reveals later that she still loves Zuko, a feeling that is mutual. The comics have not finished, so there is still time for Zuko and Mai to get back together. In this fan art, Zuko is in his Fire Lord outfit and fans can tell it is a few years later due to his long hair. But he still sweetly gives Mai a kiss on the cheek.

7 Moody & Hot Mess

10 Pieces Of Zuko & Mai Fan Art That Are Totally Romantic

Ivytea over on Tumblr (and @ivyteas on Twitter) has made this super cute and modern piece on Maiko. They call it “Moody and Hot Mess” which perfectly sums up the personalities of Mai and Zuko throughout the course of the show. The couple holds hands here as they accept their faults and still care for one another. Mai blows a bubble with her gum as Zuko throws up the peace sign. The two perfectly exhibit their traits of being moody and a hot mess with their body language.

6 Fire Lord Or Not, Don’t Get In Her Way

Mai is pretty much as feisty as they come, a trait in which @botanica_xu on Instagram has captured perfectly. Even though her boyfriend is the Fire Lord, ruler of her entire nation, Mai is not afraid to tell him off and protect him when she needs to. In the comics, Mai actually enlists the Kyoshi Warriors (with Suki and Ty Lee) to be the royal guard for Fire Lord Zuko. And just because her boyfriend became the emperor, doesn’t mean she can’t be herself around him anymore.

5 The Future Fire Lord

As mentioned, there’s a pretty big theory that Mai is Izumi’s mother, even though fans never really got the confirmation. This fan art done by @viria94 shows a super adorable pregnancy shot of Mai and Zuko just having a moment with one another.

Mai wears a gold wedding ring too. Her hair is down from her typical buns as Fire Lord Zuko pushes the hair from her face to give her a kiss. Zuko lightly blushes as the lighting on them perfectly shows how nice and sweet this moment between them really is.

4 Caught By Surprise

Firstly, the colors in this piece are totally and utterly amazing. The reflections on their hair implies that the sun is maybe going down (or rising) as pink and purple tones can be seen. Their expressions are also totally beautiful. Mai’s eyes glow with passion as she makes her move on Zuko. Zuko looks surprised but welcoming to the idea of kissing Mai. Her hands wrap around his face, touching his scar with utter delicacy. She may be the only one he allows to do so without any hesitation. The use of watercolors in this piece is absolutely fantastic.

3 The Goth Kids

This piece, done by crazytom on Tumblr, is another modern adaptation of Mai and Zuko, and truthfully feels really accurate with how they would probably be styled. Mai and Zuko seem to always prefer darker clothes. The flames on Zuko’s jacket on the left and the dragon tattoo on Mai’s arm on the right both really feel like nice details to express their roles in the Fire Nation. The kiss is extremely passionate, as they often times are, and the goths in sunglasses on the left are just totally them, as they appear to be hating everyone they see together.

2 A Happy Family

Zuko would definitely take his fatherly advice and model after Iroh, who was more of a father to him than Ozai ever could be. And even though Mai could be pretty emotionless, fans have seen how she is with those she cares about. She is warm to Zuko and Ty Lee and is sure to be equally as warm to her daughter. This piece shows the royal family just having a moment with one another, relaxing with their baby daughter, and playing with her.

1 How It All Began

This post by botanica_xu on Instagram is actually a compilation of a lot of their Maiko pieces that have been featured in this article. This piece felt like the perfect fan art to wrap everything up. It showcases a young, blushing, Mai as Zuko rests on her shoulder peacefully. It was around this age that Azula revealed the two were crushing on each other and planned a prank in which they would fall on top of one another in a palace fountain. It can probably be assumed that after this, Mai and Zuko may have gotten closer and shared some pretty cute moments with one another. This fan art is sweet and shows their youth wonderfully with the essence of young love.
