Iroh | Iroh is an extremely flawed person and the worship of him on this subreddit and all across the community is ignoring how truly selfish, ignorant, complacent, and indifferent Iroh was for a vast majority of his life. Shaun Toub (2010 film) This is especially poignant when the character mourns for his son, as the actor is simultaneously lamenting the loss of his youth. It adds another dimension to an already powerful song. His knowledge of the world is tremendous, having a thorough knowledge of cultures, history, and the properties of each element and was able to explain them easily to Zuko to get him to understand the importance of being versatile and not bound to their individual bending.

Iroh taught me that the materialistic things are not the most important so I always think “ why live a worried life chasing money and not spending time with people u care about, when you can lie in the same grave having lived a simple life full of kidness, love, and adventure. And this character helped me finding who I want to be. Even though Zuko had allowed his uncle to be imprisoned, Iroh never gave up on his nephew and his coldness towards Zuko was not out of anger and resentment but disappointment and sadness and helped him find his way. IrohAvatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra character Iroh had a short stint there too! The short story "The Tale of Iroh", in episode 15 of Season two, "The Tales of Ba Sing Se", was dedicated "In Honor of Mako". Iroh left behind a legacy of Kindness, Patience, And Wisdom to all those that were lucky enough to be touched by his presence. You see I was never close to my father, we don’t argue or anything but i feel as if i can’t share my pain and problems with him. I want to be like Iroh, maybe i can help others and be the Uncle Iroh to someone that is like Zuko in the world. Upon Zuko's coronation as Fire Lord after Ozai's defeat and the conflict's conclusion, he reopened the Jasmine Dragon tea shop and served tea for the rest of his retirement. In the end, his devotion to the world proved to surpass his love for his nephew, as Iroh was incapable of allowing the Fire Nation to truly conquer the world nor does he have the heart to help in such a calamity, and he betrayed him and forsaken his chance of returning to being honored to save the Avatar from death at the hands of Zuko, Azula, and the Dai Li. Type of Hero Iroh is old and male, so it may come as a surprise that I want to be Iroh, but hang with me. Most likely because of his love of tea, he has shown himself to be an amateur botanist with knowledge of a wide variety of plants, though misinterpretation of some plant characteristics lead him to accidentally poisoning himself. It really seemed to fit his story arc and personality. Iroh and Zuko eventually reach Ba Sing Se, where they soon begin a very prosperous life running a tea house. Thank you so much for sharing your Uncle Iroh experience!
