Avatar: The Last Airbender | Book 2 | Episode 15 | "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" (FULL EPISODE REACTION)
Added 2025-01-15 17:00:18 +0000 UTCHey guys,
I have one thing to say about this episode and one thing only...
THIS WAS THE COOLEST FUCKING EPISODE OF THE ENTIRE SHOW SO FAR!! I LOVE the style of this one! And the cool part is that all of the characters' actions seem to be dictated by the thing in their lives they lost.
Wow! Honestly. I'm blown away by this one.
Love you all,
Alex
Comments
he recorded it at some point after having already known he was dying, its why he gets emotional in the recording.

2025-01-21 08:33:32 +0000 UTCHey Alex: during the really touching moments, take a few beats to take it in and experience it (and let your viewers experience it with you). THEN, make a comment, but only after the moment is over. Talking over it interrupts the energy and poignancy of the scene and we don't get a chance to experience it with you.

2025-01-17 10:34:37 +0000 UTCI think Iroh's story should've been last. Could barely focus on the other ones after that one lol

2025-01-16 00:24:10 +0000 UTCI'm not gonna lie, there's literally not a better way to order the stories in this episode. It's pacing is actually perfect.

2025-01-15 22:27:50 +0000 UTCA few of Iroh's lines were recorded by Greg Baldwin, however there are some that were recorded by Mako, most notably the picnic for Liu Ten and the song at the end.

2025-01-15 20:45:20 +0000 UTCMako Iwamatsu, the voice for Iroh, recorded the lines for this episode in the hospital. He had esophageal cancer, and was on his death bed. His song at the end were some of the last words he ever spoke. Greg Baldwin, who took over for Mako as the voice of Iroh, has stated that he will never record his own version of "Leaves from the Vine" out of respect for Mako.
DarnedStingray8
2025-01-15 20:44:42 +0000 UTCHe really should’ve stayed more quiet during the iroh sequence out of respect for the man, but at least he realized what was happening by the end. Did anybody explain to them that the Voice Actor died?

2025-01-15 20:17:06 +0000 UTCNo matter how often or how prepared I am to see "The tale of Iroh" I still cry everytime, just like One Piece episode 36😭

2025-01-15 18:06:37 +0000 UTCThe reason Sokka got kicked out was because he said a line with 6 syllables instead of 5. Haiku’s follow a pattern of 5-7-5 syllables.
Cole Romero
2025-01-15 17:48:32 +0000 UTCI swear every time I hear Iroh say “if only I could have helped you” I can’t control myself

2025-01-15 17:34:14 +0000 UTCThe voice actor of iroh was Mako and he died that's what the "in honor of mako meant" the voice actor changed later

2025-01-15 17:01:29 +0000 UTCThe tragic true part behind this Episode is that the voice actor of Iroh was diagnosed with cancer and had no chance of surviving. The picture of Irohs son is actually a picture of the voice actor when he was young and he was actually crying over his own death here. And hearing the sound of his broken voice crying over the fact that he will definitely die makes me shatter. This is also the last season we have with this amazing Voice Actor! RIP Mako🕊️
Oliver
2025-01-15 17:00:49 +0000 UTCSad Fact: the original voice actor for uncle Iroh was Mako who sadly passed away at the age of 72 due to cancer. The picture you see of his son is what Mako actually looked liked at a young age when he was in the military. Mako was actually crying during his recording because he knew he was gonna die soon and he Loved playing Uncle Iroh so he was saying goodbye to his fans, loved ones, and to his favorite character. RIP Mako
