His greatest impact was not as the Dragon of the West.
But as Uncle.

One of the most wise and compelling characters in all of recent fiction, honestly. Characters like Iroh are what made Avatar so amazing.

Tales From Ba Sing Se was worse than when Littlefoot's mom died.

He has gotten me through some hard times. Thank you for reminding me of these beautiful quotes.

I named my puppy after Uncle Iroh's voice actor: Mako :3
iBrowseUserSubWithSoundOn
A character in Legend of Korra got named after him too. Awesome how both the character and the actor got a namesake

Iroh singing to his son's grave is the first and only moment from any film or tv show to ever make me tear up. I applaud the writers
HoleySocks96
Even worse because that's around the time when the original voice actor died.
mrpleasant97
The whole reason they made the short was in tribute to Mako Iwamatsu, Mako in legend of Korra is named after him.
YouAreHoldingMeVerballyHostage
Named after... Wait, WHAT?
I cant believe that never clicked in my mind.

I really wanted Korra to take Zuko to the Spirit World for a reunion :(
TheLavabenderGuy
Comics comics comics.
Nahxela
I should read Avatar comics.
TheLavabenderGuy
As someone who owns the first three, and awaiting for the completed fourth, yep ! All canon, all good. And Korra comics to being this year !
dmag318
It happened!? I just finished LoK and that was all I wanted when I saw Iroh.
TheLavabenderGuy
Nah. ): But it sure is a possibility ! All we know about the LOK comics is ... later this year. :/

Iroh was this generation's Mr. Rogers. I'm so glad I grew up with this in my life.
djice777
Mr. Rogers couldn't breathe fire. i'll take Iroh as a sub gratefully. cause ya know, learning to tie shoes vs breathing fire. easy choice.
gardeviorismywaifu
my favorite anime
Pickleslicer
It's actually a cartoon, if it wasn't made in Japan it's not technically classified as an anime.
pois1
The issue of whether or not Avatar specifically is an anime aside, the term anime refers more to a genre than a place of origin.

I don't even remember the episode... I have to watch this again.
Khyron2k
My favorite bit is when Zuko finally realizes what he needs to do and visits his uncle, who doesn't chastize or anything but just hugs him.
iBrowseUserSubWithSoundOn
Me too. I cried putting this together. Also, the In memory of is the voice of Iroh and that makes me extra sad.
LoTRFanatic42
I like how in the Legend of Korra, the main firebender is named Mako in honour of him.
iBrowseUserSubWithSoundOn
Yes. It speaks to how the creators felt about him. Giving him and his character a namesake.

What episode was this?
drunz
Tales of Ba Sing Se is basically an interlude when every main character had a small 3 minute story about themselves in a day of Ba Sing Se

Is The BOULDER not disappointed? That the Lotus Iroh GIf is TOO short? Is The BOULDER conflicted, about upvoting such a poor representation?

You forgot my favorite: Katara: "Aang, this is all my fault!" Aang: "No Katara, it isn't!" Iroh: "Yeah, it kind of is..."
alugastiz
Are you two so busy fighting, you cannot see your own ship has set sail?
ExplainsJokeTherebyRenderingJokeInert
Maybe that should be a saying.
SpecialAgentSkeletor
I honestly think that was written into the episode as an aknowledgent of the Aang/Katara ship.
Nepeta33
when was that again?
PlantyThePlant
Back from season 1, the episode with the water-bending scroll and pirates. That episode also had the whole deal with the lotus tile :)

sweet. i havent seen avatar and i loved LOK...woohoo
iBrowseUserSubWithSoundOn
This. Is. Sac·ri·lege. (It's cool man, go watch it, completely different emotional ride. Also you will love meeting everyone's namesakes)
op1qo
Thanks man. Now I'm excited!
iBrowseUserSubWithSoundOn
Of course. Also, Mako was named after the voice actor for Iroh. He is so awesome, he got two namesakes.
RayMC
I wouldn't say that. After tearing myself apart trying to decide which 1 I liked more, I realized they were quite different from each other.
JamesBluntThatSmartassCunt
Opinions and the like.
RayMC
True. I posted a part 2 just as you replied, sorta explaining my reasoning. It's above your comment.
RayMC
LoK always had me feeling more "emotionally drained" at the end of each episode. It seemed to focus more on the characters than the world.
Exabit
I feel like LoK book 4 was "WAR AND DEPRESSION" and that was the best part for me, first real emotion. But in TLA I invested myself in the 1
RayMC
Looking back, I cannot pinpoint where the emotion was or what it cause was, but it was there, all right. ATLA also had it, but lesser extent
Exabit
2 characters, and actually cared a loooot when stuff happened. When they stole Appa, I was ready to kill a bitch. Also, every time 2/?

AkioKen
Legend of Korra is so much more artistic, but you still can't beat the original.....
Youpassthebutter
Also... This is my opinion from my instagram:
?1
Youpassthebutter
Youpassthebutter
I think the opposite. LoK had very bad character development..imho.
AGirlWhoLeaptThroughPosts
I thought that too until I watched it again. It's a good show and the characters do change over time. The original is still better though.
GeneralCaptainCrunch
Meh. I think it had decent character development. Korra was much more interesting than Aang imo... he felt too perfect.
AkioKen
I disagree, but I meant to say that Korra felt more fluent with the fight scenes and the music was better, in my opinion. Even so, TLA wins.
AkioKen
Then again, I tend to just like things, whether bad or good.
Youpassthebutter
Korra was being all "i'm the avatar, i'm the best"..and when she lost it all she's like "i'm not the avatar anymore..so i'm no one"
LowfatGooch
The again,she DID go through more traumatic experiences than Aang and she learned from the as well.
GeneralCaptainCrunch
Damn dude, you act like losing the one thing you were ever associated with wouldn't make you have an identity crisis.

The BOULDER takes issue with your "may"....
