Just watch episode 14 of season 2 and Iroh managed to tear me up.
my ooc description of this fucked up relationship
based on legacy and atla
Do you think Iroh is overhyped as a character? It feels strange that people adore a character who comitted wartime atrocities.
you are aware that the point of his character was to show people that anyone is capable of changing and being a better person right?
hell, the show even showed you glimpses of his time in the military to contrast who he became later on. iroh also serves to show zuko who he would become if he chooses the right path.
possibly the most powerful part of his character arc was freeing ba sing se, the nation he besieged in the past. it completed his arc beautifully.
so no, he is not over-hyped. he is a reminder that we are all capable of change no matter our circumstances. he shows that being a good person is a decision you make every single day.
Can we all agree it's canon
iroh ii my man i love him i love him i love him ððð
(But if there was any justice in the world, Zuko and Izumi would be 100+ years old and still kicking in this post apocalyptic era.)
no one can ever make me hate this duo
Uncle Iroh: Remember, a falling knife has no handle.
Azula and Zuko, in unison : So, catch it by the blade!
Uncle Iroh: âĶI worry about both of you.
(zuko and uncle iroh for half of the show) zuko:I think you're overthinking this uncle iroh: I think you are under thinking this
