The voice of the Cabbage Man discusses how the voice was created in kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKHWeIB7prh_gbs

[@MokiSenpai]

The fact that Zuko was a late addition and it turned out to be one of the most memorable character in... well... animation history is just crazy.

[@snxdes9535]

@@ncard00 I guess in terms of writing.

[@mikeg2306]

That happens quite a bit. Fonzie (Henry Winkler) in Happy Days was supposed to be a side character and took over the show. Erkle (Jamaal White) in Family Matters was supposed to be a one day walk-on.

Tears from our eyes, Come rolling down, Like little drops of rain, When we hear the sound, Avatar fans, have nothing to defend Against Uncle Iroh's, ability to tearbend.

[@SamuTheFrog]

I have an unhealthy obsession with Grey 🤣🤣🤣 no one could ever replace her voice for that character. She like the Mark Hamill of Azula. & also, Iroh 2's humble nature on the subject strikes me on many levels. This show has such a wholesome cast.

[@rhettmitchell]

Was that Ozai/Mark Hamill reference intentional lol

[@SamuTheFrog]

@rhettmitchell I mean he did do that voice too, but I was more referencing how irreplaceable he was as the joker

[@keithtorgersen9664]

She's also awesome as Asajj Ventress.

[@SamuTheFrog]

@keithtorgersen9664 Shit, man, her list of roles is MASSIVE, she popped up everywhere. Though there is just certain characters that couldn't have been done by anyone else I don't think.

[@Jonathan-Anderson]

Season 1, Ep. 19 response for 5:10 Uncle Iroh: If you're fishing for an octopus, my nephew, you need a tightly woven net, or he would squeeze through the tiniest hole and escape: Zuko: I dont need your wisdom right now, Uncle

[@J.D.onthego]

Omg pfffft…. lol this is hilarious. He could have used a net!🤣

Wow, Dante, even aged, still has that teenage raspy voice of Zuko. If I don't look at the video, I would imagine Zuko still.

Absolutely Agree🥰Dante Basco's voice is unique☺️😊❤️Didn't change at all and he's already nearly 50.

[@ginolibang6069]

I first saw him in Hook way before Avatar aired, but as soon as I heard Zuko, I knew it was him. His voice is very distinctive.

[@izzfp9802]

"That's rough, buddy" should be the one.

THANK YOU!!!! as a adult fan now, I was 14 when this aired, This was a treat to go with my morning coffee!!! Had me smiling the whole way through!!!! I may just replay it to another cup in memory of Mako. He was universally EVERYONE'S UNCLE!!

[@chloe.2189]

While I LOVE Zuko as much as everyone else does, Aang was a fantastic character too, and it makes me sad when people don't acknowledge that

[@rvldz1931]

Seem's to me like they forget.. the shows name is Avatar the Last Air Bender NOT zukos redemption arc.

[@tlesser-aase7394]

They were just saying that it wouldn't be the same show without Zuko as a character and his arc it wouldn't have been the same. Aang was the pivotal, touchstone character and watching his growth and triumph was fantastic. But unlike most other shows, the secondary characters play just as important of a role in the story and that's what made AtLA so special.

[@ross9144]

Of course, people don’t want to chose the main or obvious choice they want to seem unique

[@marinapercastegui1926]

20:20 i can relate. i was a freshman in high school and my brother was 20 or 21 but id get home from school and he'd get home from work and i remember getting together and being so excited to watch Avatar together. something i know i will always remember and cherish

[@DOTHShorts]

Originally they wanted Ozai was the show's main antagonist, but the writers realized he would not be able to cause Aang and his friends trouble sitting from his throne. Zuko was then written into the show but became a major character arc.

[@DeanneM1726]

When Iroh's voice actor talked about finding the light out of the darkness, (or something like that), was he making a salvation testimony, or talking about coming out of depression. Did he have deep depression?

[@elysego482]

he was saying to be positive because nothing good comes from focusing only on the bad side. That's why it helped him out during COVID because we never knew what would happen to us and how long we would stay in the "new normal"
