    Mako has passed away, people.

    Man, that's messed up. Hopefully whoever replaces him as Iroh will be just as good, but I doubt it. Mako was awesome.

    A piece of the world just died...



    For all the roles you've done, so much heart you've brought to the entertainment world... No one will EVER successfully replace you. You will ALWAYS be remembered.

    This is cruel Mako was my favorite actor he played Iroh so well and his role as Aku was great as well

    You'll always be remembered and a peice of the Avatar world is now gone without Iroh's brilliant voice what may happen no one will ever be as good as Mako he will be cherished with all of us.

    Ps. Someone inform those kids at the nick boards before we see anymore stupid topics.

    Don't let that be Avatar is a great show but without Mako it just isn't as good well maybe Iroh gets killed off in one of the epiosdes why would I suggest that.

    The writers wouldn't change their story concept because of a voice actor not being able to voice the character. Hopefully Mako finished season 2 and a fair amount of season 3 before this.

    Rest In Peace Mako.
