    Everyone on these boards keep posting "rest in peace Mako", well who is Mako? Is he the guy Uncle Iroh was singing about in "The Tales of Ba Sing Se"? (Whom I'm nearly positive was Iroh's son right?)

    Mako voiced Iroh, but passed away in July. Irohs son is Lu-ten, and he was killed in battle in the show, so they dedicated a scene to Mako about him.

    I??believe that they got most of Season 2 done, but a new actor was already introduced in a few scenes of Tales of Ba Sing Se.?? You have to listen real hard.

    Iroh was such a loveable character, and his voice was absolutely perfect, it's kinda sad knowing the show will never really be exactly the same...

    Well....

    The voice is horrible in the Portuguese version.... Thats for sure... So in the other languages version, it wouldn??t be such a loss... But I was very fond of Mako??s voice, I always watch the eps in english... On the scene with the kids playing with the ball in Tales of Ba Sing Se, is where the other guy played his voice.??

    I was afraid someone would ask who Mako was....
    It's only known to forum people but not the general public, I hope that they are going to make the characters and their voice actors more publicly known, cuz then you can give them credit for the great voice acting and all....
