Uhhh. Woah. Ba Sing Se is NOT what I expected it to be at all.

I definitely thought reaching this city would finally mean safety, answers, and aid.Instead we walked into a completely different kind of enemy..The whole brainwashing "there is no war in Ba Sing Se" is actually terrifying.The walls physically protect everyone from the war.. yeahBut they've also allowed the people in them to be completely shut off from reality.'Tales of Ba Sing Se' might be one of my new favorite episodes. I cried so much, WHY lol. I think these characters are clearly starting to grow on me more and more. I loved living a day in each of their shoes even in the creepy atmosphere of Ba Sing Se. "If only I could have helped you" 😭😭😭And APPA. Poor sweet, Appa. Watching him go through everything he went through to find Aang again was heartbreaking to watch. AND HE MADE IT ALL THE WAY TO BA SING SE! Just for the Dai Li to take him.. Now I need to know what they want with Aang. Why they're doing this to Appa.What is going on in this place, for real!? Thank you for your support on Patreon!Relax and enjoy 🍿🌿SYNC ALONG LINK: https://youtu.be/DIiutg-hHVUI watched this on Netflix

Welp here we go this one's gonna be rough

Tales of ba sing se was the last episode Iroh’s original Voice actor, Mako, recorded, it’s especially sad knowing that he knew he was dying when he sung leaves from the vine this episode.

Dude Longcouch

I have cried at "Leaves From The Vine" a thousand times in a thousand rewatches. Now, I must do it once again.

Edgar Gonzalez

Yesss,its here!!!! AVATAR IS HERE!!!

James Park

With all the gta 6 controversy is there any chance of you doing a gta 5 playthrough 🙏

I've been waiting 2 months for Tales of Ba Sing Se and it's finally here

Every once in a while, I get a bit of an Invader Zim vibe from Avatar moments, which I guess is because one of the creators worked on it before he worked on Avatar. It's another excellent show, probably a little outside of your purview for watching, but one of my favorites from that era of animation at Nickelodeon. It did involve one of the creators of Avatar, so it is very strong. I paid the Kali-Wali price on that stolen episode. It hurts.

This was why I subscribed i was so excited for this episode, also everyone will say everything that needs to be said about Iroh, Mako was the original voice of Iroh Another interesting thing most don't notice, Toph genuinely feels beautiful because she knows katara isn't lying and genuinely thinks Toph is beautiful.

its actually a crazy coincidence that this came out today since theres that tribute to mako in this upload since peter cullin, another famous and well established voice actor died today. but yeah, mako was an established voice, stage and movie actor who passed during the production of season 2. btw, youre gonna get a lot of false facts about mako, like that he sang leaves from the vine from his death bed or that he recorded his last lines while in the hospital, these are not true. he finished recording a good portion of his lines for season 2 way before his passing and theres even some lines where the actor replaces him can be heard, most noticeably was in tales of ba sing sae where the kids break the window. RIP to two legends. "i made some chai tea today" what did you just say?! chai tea!? chai means tea, bro! youre saying tea tea! would i ask you for a coffee coffee with room for cream cream?! lol i know you corrected yourself but its just funny you said that after watching spiderverse. the voice of long feng is clancy brown. he was that main guard in shawshank redemption but his most notable role is mr krabs in spongebob and hank (?) in detroit become human, and frank castles captain in daredevil. imagine living in ba sing sae where they dont have alley cats, they have alley panthers! say what you will about azula but "dont you know fans make flames stronger" is a bomb line.

Mako was Iroh’s original VA. As a sign of respect for Mako, Greg usually refers to himself as the second voice of Iroh.

I can remember watching these episodes as a kid. Takes me back when life was doing okay & some people I cared about were still here. I just me now. I'm glad you're enjoying these episodes as I did many years ago.

Fun fact: The little girl with the hat in the Aang part of the episode who had the lime "Fluffykins, what are you doing down there", was a young girl from the Make-A-Wish foundation that asked to to see where Avatar was made. When she went, she met the cast and creators and they offered to draw her into an episode AND she got to voice herself, complete with the hat she was wearing in real life.

mitchhamilton64

this is not true. he finished like 95% of the season with his replacement doing some pick up lines. the only one i know of with greg is the scene with the kids and the broken window in the tale of iroh. they do the "in honor of mako" because its just the perfect place to put it in all the season.

Pilot2b

In other news, Avatar actually has some well-known people doing voice acting for their characters. For instance, Fire Lord Ozai is voiced by Mark Hamill, who most famously played Luke Skywalker, and in these three episodes, Clancy Brown voiced Long Feng, the head of the Dai Li. You would know Clancy Brown as Captain Hadley, the head of the guards in The Shawshank Redemption.

Oh... ha ha. Lucky me... sort of. I didn't get around to watching these until now, so I didn't have to wait at all. I was surprised to look at the info and see that it just went up an or so ago.

Makoto "Mako" Iwamatsu was Iroh's original VA. He sadly passed away before "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" aired. RIP

Leaves from the Vine never fails to make me cry...

Jahny Bravo

The eventually reveal of how Ba Sing Se is behind the curtain really makes the fact it’s the last remaining Earth Kingdom stronghold make perfect sense. It’s the last stronghold because it made the bare minimum effort to protect the rest of the Earth Kingdom. Instead dedicated solely to protecting itself, because the concern was more about keeping power than keeping people safe. Which also makes sense when you look back on the fact the Earth Kingdom itself only grew as large as it did from the conquering tyrant, Chin the Terrible that Kyoshi took out. Most of the that Earth Kingdom territory is just land that’s been passed from conqueror to conqueror. With the locals paying the price for the ambitions of the leaders of their times. Iroh’s tale of Ba Sing Se devastated me the first time and still makes me cry every time I get to the end. But it also solidified the person middle school me aimed to be seeing how he spent that day. Helping who I could to make up for who I couldn’t, or for the fact I could never find a way to follow down the same more positive path I tried to help guide others down. Mostly because of my own inability to open up to anyone no matter how much they confided in me and I genuinely cherished that trust and tried to be there for them best I could. And everything about what happened to Appa makes Aang’s desert crashout on those sand benders 100% valid. He went through all that because that guy’s son saw him as a money making opportunity and was willing to kidnap Appa from his family for it. “I didn’t realize it belonged to the Avatar!” Bro why are you kidnapping other people’s animals whether it’s the Avatar or not?!?! P.S. I was super late on catching your Spider-Verse post because I got distracted so my comment is all the way at the bottom and I don’t think you saw it. But I included a lot of details about the comic history of Spider-Man that I think you would find really interesting and changes how relationships between characters are viewed in a meta-sense (as in it doesn’t affect the story and can’t spoil anything, but it adds new layers to their connections outside of just the movie itself. some even connects their entire existence as characters in irl history). Like the first major detail I talk about is how Hobie Brown (Spider-Punk) is actually the identity of the first ever version of Prowler to ever show up in comics. And stuff like that. I hate to be off topic and a different video, but that movie was one I was specifically really hoping to get the chance to share some of those things with you (Spider-Man is at level of characters like Iroh for how I let the philosophy of the character affect my vision of the person I want to be in order to avoid the less desirable traits I might’ve inherited from my family if I didn’t become self-aware in time). and I was accidentally late and worry I missed the chance to get seen there.

I've seen the show since it was on television, I've seen countless reactions of this show on YT, and I swear Leaves From The Vine still gets me.

Day Blueberry

7:48 Yes! I was about to make a comment like "Nooooo, you JUST watched Across the Spiderverse! Poor Pavi!" but you beat me to it!! A cute detail I like is that Iroh liked the tea from the small vendor, even though it was cold, he still liked it after he heated it. Compared to this bigger establishment he didnt like and I think it's cause he could feel it was not made with love. Iroh also never holds back in expressing his offense towards bad tea, but the one time he did was when Zuko made it, after waking up from Azulas attack, he drank that first cup and pretended to like it for Zuko Something so bitter sweet about The Tale of Iroh (besides just all of it!) is that its a day in which Iroh lends help and acts like a father figure three separate times to men in childhood, teenagehood, and adulthood, all before ultimately mourning his son and the stage of life he never got to see, adulthood. "If only I could have helped you" He saw his son in everyone he met and helped that day. Another thing is that the portrait of his son he places at the end is actually based on a younger Mako, that way not only his voice as Uncle Iroh would be immortalized in the show but also himself. Hearing Makos final performance as Iroh singing Leaves from the Vine will always, always, make me cry Rest in peace Mako, an uncle to many generations On a lighter note, the fur Momo finds in the bag is from when Aang took some fur from bathing Appa to try and lure Azula away when they were all sleep deprived, Momo missed him so much he held onto it when it was the only thing left of him And lastly I loved so much that you noticed Appa and Aang were both having the same dream together because they're connected, it makes me tear up when I see that, and it's such a missed detail, it made me so happy you noticed it right away! What an insane 3 episodes!! And the best is still yet to come

Leaves from the vine... falling so slow... like fragile tiny shells... drifting in the foam... little soldier boy come marching home... brave soldier boy comes marching home...

Binho

"Why are they playing 'Brave Soldier Boy'?" Famous last words... I think if you don't like Iroh you are possibly not human. Best wise character in all fiction media.

Ms. S

One of the coolest settings in any show I’ve ever seen. Felt so cool and mysterious to make it here when watching

Josue

You have now experienced and been emotionally wrecked by Leaves from the Vine. Welcome to the club.

Kase

Same. Especially since Mako was battling esophageal cancer recording it. 💔 RIP to the legend.

Justyn

I love how this show has horror elements Koh the face stealer and wan-chi tong. Then the psychological angle with the Dai Lee. This show is so good that it's a good sbow in all genres. Its a great shounen style battle anime. A great comedy, a great intimate personal drama, even a great thriller when it wants to be. It blows my mind all over again every single rewatch 😭

Onno Smits

Great batch of episodes. I can't believe we'll be finishing Book 2 next week already! Rewatching this show with your reactions has been such a lovely time. From your intro it seems you're stressing about releasing stuff on schedule here on Patreon. I think pretty much all patrons would agree it's not that big of a deal if you've gotta miss some self-imposed deadline because of events out of your control! Don't give yourself more stress than is needed. I know YouTube is a different beast, you gotta be consistent on there to succeed. But us Patreon folks can be patient. 😅

UTU49

I love it when Suki finds Appa and helps him. This is only Suki's 3rd appearance, I think.

PG Modehouse

The Jet Hypnosis scene reminded me of A Clockwork Orange. Creepy and unsettling. 😨

Andrew Crabtree

I think with zuko it’s more of a trust thing knowing his own father what he’s done what he’s still doing if he truly wanted to be himself who would trust the real zuko and not the fire lords son still fighting the feeling of all the bad the fire nation has caused and the burden falls on him that’s why I’m so glad iroh is always looking out for him yes iroh may have lost one son but he treats zuko just like he is his he does know his boundaries and you can tell by some of the things he says but the way they are together is just always great to watch that feeling.

Paul Wright

Brown was also Colonel Schoonover in Daredevil Season 2. Been in so many shows and movies.

NeonThunder

Along with the general tale being a tribute to Mako, the picture that they used for Iroh's son is actually an artistic rendition of a photo of Mako from when he was younger.

mitchhamilton64

final performance? mako finished most of season 2, we'll still hear from him.

Marcus

Really enjoyed watching with you. I'm so hyped for you to watch the rest of the season!

Day Blueberry

We do, but shows and movies aren't shot or recorded in order We'll still hear more of his performance in Book 2 but this was the latest thing he ever recorded

Ghgh

The next eps are so good and for me show why azula owns this season.

mitchhamilton64

i dont think that is true at all. i cant find a source anywhere where someone said tales of ba sing se was his last bit of work. also, idk how common it is to do work out of order unless its for pick ups

awildjord

(appas fur was from the bag bc aang had a bunch of his fur in there when he was shedding and trying to lead azula off their trail - and momo got it on him when he jumped into the bag)

PsyghKick

I think Iroh's depth is further enhanced by the fact that he's being the kind soul he is to the city which he besieged. The city who's defences took his son from him. Absolutely incredible writing.

Sky Quest Music Official

Tales of Ba Sing Se, especially Irohs part is I think is just one of many reasons why this show is so loved. It finds a way to still touch on heavy subjects like a parents grief over losing a child but till finds a way to each kids its okay to both grieve but grow as you do. I'll never not cry when I hear "Leaves From The Vine." Rest in Peace to Mako man❤️❤️
