My love for Iroh is very deep. I swear if he weren't a cartoon I'd marry him (though he's probably got 20 years on me, at least). Not only does he have humor, but humilty and grace. He is a very caring man, but he originally wasn't if you recall in Zuko's memories but that was before he lost the one person he loved the most, his only son. I don't want to seem cruel but I think that was the best thing for him, it set him on his path that makes me the Iroh we know and love. In simple terms, I heart him so... ^_^ I don't know if his son's death made him who he is, but I think it did make him a more compassionate person and did bring him closer to Zuko. His son's death was definitely a turning point for him, and I think it did bring him a lot of the wisdom he now has. I heart Iroh, too... My heart broke for Iroh in the season 3 promo... Boo, Zuko, boo!!

I know! Who wants to slap Zuko (Or throw a rock at him?) that really has to be the worse betrayal for Iroh. I wanna cuddle him ^_^

^I certainly hope so.
But Iroh is my absolute favorite character and ranks up there with my favorite animated and nonanimated characters of all time. He's probably about the only character that I would seriously consider not watching the show anymore if he died (I say that and yet it would be so difficult...). I don't know why I like him so much. I love his sense of humor, and how he just seems like a foolish old man while you know there's a lot more to him than his appearance. He's just so completely awesome in every way.

I think of all the classic Wise Old Mentor characters (Gandalf, Dumbledore, Brom, the list goes on and on...), Iroh is the best.

Iroh is my second favorite of the old wise men, Gandalf the Grey owns! ( I don't like Gandalf the white cuz he is all invincible and stuff =P (yes he is invincible, he said that he was sent back until the task is done and that means if he dies he'll just keep coming back, its in a Lord of the Rings informational book i have)) but ya iroh owns. I love it when he introduced lightning to zuko it looked so cool!

Iroh is definately one of my favorite characters. He's amazingly wise but not corny. He's like a Gandalf that you can relate with. I disagree that Zuko doesn't deserve Iroh. Their father/son relationship brings out the best and worst in each other. I probably wouldn't like either character as much if it weren't for the other. I agree. You could tell Zuko felt bad about betraying 'Uncle'.Anyway,enough of that. Iroh is awesome. He's funny, an awesome fighter, and loves tea. 'Nough said

Gandalf the White seemed too removed/remote to be a real mentor anymore. I do so hope Iroh doesn't go crazy. I think it would be cool if he accompanied Aang to the Spirit World, since he's been there before.

That scene of Iroh in tales of Ba sing se made me cry... again. So im fianly making an Iroh fan thread. For all who think Iroh to be the most lovable character in the show. For those who think Iroh's wisdom is complemented by his flaws. for those who think zuko unworthy of Iroh's love (in his current state at least). For those whose greatest fear for book3 is that Baldwin will not be able to fill the shoes of Mako. and whose greatest hope/expectation for book3 is when Iroh joins the Gang to be Aang's teacher. and for those who just love Iroh in general, please use this thread to discuss... anything Iroh related really. From theories on how he will break out of jail.(i think the gang finds his cell with Socka's motivation to find suki) to the best way to tame your Iroh beard. I know your out there, just let the rest of DH know how much Iroh is loved EDIT: dont talk much about zuko here. for the zuko/Iroh relationship please go here distanthorizons.proboards31.com/index.cgi?board=characters&action=display&thread=1182409653 I really like your sig quote "What Would Iroh Do?" Very nice indeed.

^Good pont, but Zhao is an exception. He's also mean to girls (fire-blasting Katara and betraying her, his outburst on his date, and him leaving it, using Mai...

It doesn't really make sense. *shrug* I don't know why. We didn't know why Aang would wake up on a Fire Nation ship, or why Zuko and Katara would be in a cave together.
