Let’s be honest, we’ve always wanted to know the answer to this question. What if Iroh were the Fire Lord? Frankly, it would have been reality if it had not been for the hands of fate and the meddling of Ozai in taking the birthright meant for his oldler brother. It just seems in the line of Fire Lords that the youngest child is always less honorable and less fair-playing than the older. But let’s rewind the clock and step in and put to rest this question once and for all. What if Ozai did not become the Firelord? What if, instead, it was Iroh?

What if Goku and Naruto switched anime with their original power ❤❤❤
@@Madmax0581makes no sense it’s just random
I do
@@AdventuresofBabyMarioBowserJra sounds good to me
@@Nifdy7 it's so random... He just might do it 🤔🤔🤔
In theory, Iroh was basically like Azula before he lost his son Lu Ten. He was the prodigy and the favorite son between him and Ozai who was jealous of him.
After Iroh lost his son he learned empathy, before that he was a hardened war general who would've made sure that the Fire Nation spread across the world.
A great irony of this family is that Ozai disdained his son Zuko because he saw Zuko was himself, the second best in terms of aptitude while Azula was the best - what Ozai wish he was when he was young.
Ozai hated his son Zuko because he hated himself.
With talent yes. But he never was a cold hearted like she was (remember that he found the last dragons and did not killed him, that happend before he lost his son). We would have instead a more moderate Fire Nation, that still would try to conquere the other nations.
@@MrDeflador Supposedly moderate leader or not, the carnage of war required by Iroh to make a Fire Nation present across the entire world would still be awful.
As Dragon of the West, Iroh would be expected to carry the Fire Nation banner everywhere whatever the human cost.
@@chrisleaf yeah no doubt about, however he would try to inegrate former earth kingdom citizen to join his course, because I think he believed in Sozins "Goal" to share the progress of the fire nation with others (more then Sozin did). He Would stay still wage war, but unlike his brother he would not use the comet to wipe the earth kingdom clean.
Great analysis
@@Kevynmorgan Thank You, I really love this series.
Iroh once became a stand in Fire Lord and the first thing he did was declare a new hoilday "National Tea Appreciation Day" then took a guards spear and gave him a cup of tea.
Best regent ever
Sound like something Iroh would do 😂. Respect 👌🏾
@@9cboomer720because he did do it!
Personally, I think that in the wake of Ursa’s death and Ozai’s imprisonment, Iroh would have heard about the plan to kill Zuko. Iroh would have then plead for Zuko’s life and would likely offer to adopt him as his heir.
Yeah, Zuko's death didn't even need to happen here. Azulon should've known it wouldn't have hurt Ozai since he was planning to kill him when he was a baby.
@KingKindred
But would Iroh learn about the situation in time to stop it?
personally, thats what I think Azulon's actual order was, it just doesn't make sense for him to order Zukos death from the start - but stripping Ozai's heir and giving him to the frankly better suited Iroh? that would actually hurt Ozai, fix the succession problem, and preserve the life of his grandson.
Remember we never actually get a reliable narration on what that order was, and it just goes against the characterization of both azulon and iroh both.
@@ancientflames6679 I could be wrong, but iirc in the comics, Zukos mom actually talks on what happened that night, but I actually think you're right. I think it was Ozai that told Ursa he had to kill Zuko.
Honestly, in this video, I thought Iroh would end up killing Azulon with the dagger in a fit of grief.
A lot of Azula's personality came from emulating her approving father. Under the care of Iroh she would be a better person by the time Aang emerged than she was in the main timeline. She would likely still be cold and calculating, but avoid more deceitful and fear-based tactics, as those were what got her mom and brother killed and her father imprisoned. She would probably rely more on her raw firebending talent to get what she wants, and maybe even treat her friends better with Iroh teaching her the value of governing with respect instead of fear.
My guess would be her fear based tactics would be differing in approach while still being manipulative. For instance, she wouldn't light the safety net on fire with Ty Lee but rather threaten the circus owner behind the scenes to do what he must to make her leave with her. She'd be far less likely to commit atrocities or cruelties to other but feel no qualms with manipulating things to her favor. That being said, there would also likely be a slightly softer side to her that would make her less manipulative to her friends in general circumstances and she'd likely come to begrudgingly respect Iroh for having a powerful but steady hand as well as giving her more care than either her parents ever had seeing as Ursa was terrified of her while Ozai loved to "play" with her.
What if Roku Killed Sozin When He Was Trying To Set Up Colonys In The Earth Kingdom
Yes that would so interesting!
@@svenrio8521 bro the entire events of avatar the last airbender would t happen or be super different t
then the ATLA story wouldnt happen no? The current story now only happened because Roku didnt kill Sozin, then dying and allowing the war to happen, then Aang finds out hes the avatar and flees and gets frozen.
Idk maybe someone else wouldve been Fire Lord if not Roku, Aang would probably still be the next Avatar just with different friends and life. The southern water tribe probably wont even be invaded by the fire nation.
@@svenrio8521 Interesting? Balance would ve been kept. Which means a time of mostly peace and prosperity. Aka times where is not much to tell about great adventures like Tolkien said it.
It would make the same action’s inevitable. Azulon would know that the fire nation would never Ben secure while the avatar lifts
Well he technically did become a fire lord when Zuko appointed him as intern Fire Lord in the search for Zuko’s mother.
The first thing he did was declare a new hoilday "National Tea Appreciation Day"
@@vorlux6354 please drink up my friend😁
More so a regent than the actual fire lord, though technically theirs not much difference in practice, one just wields the power, and other wields the power in the fire lords name.
Iroh acts as interim fire lord, not intern fire lord. 😂
Who else loves Avatar?
Hello
Me
Hi
You do really good videos
I love it
Man having Zuko and Ursa killed hits harder in this story.
I was expecting Iroh to go full Dragon mode at that point tbh.
I'm very glad you guys stuck true to who Iroh was before exile. So many people forget he wasn't the peace-loving zen master we know and love while he was a general in the Fire Nation. If he became Fire Lord, his duty to the nation would remain and change who he is as a person. Nice job staying true to that!
True, but he is a very different person to Ozai. More compassionate, even if buried under so many personal tragedies. And to me, it makes it all the sadder that he would continue the war and suffering on a sunk-cost fallacy.
Most people are afraid to truly dive into this type of what if, instead preferring to follow stations of canon.
Major props to you guys for having the guts to write such a drastic change as 13:30 👏
What if Zuko was a prodigy?
He already was
Zuko was worthy to learn the true way of fire bending
And its implied that the prophecy that the fire sages saw between Ozi and Zuko's mom that Zuko is actually the strong fire bender they foresaw
@@ImmaLittlePip yeah he just had the misfortune of having Azula as his sister.
W
He was always a great fire bender but Azula was just more naturally gifted. Remember Zuko beat Zhao when he was still a teen. Zuko was only seen as weak because he actually expressed emotion as a child and didn’t live up to his father’s standards.
He was
i love this because it also leaves room for azula to become a major antagonist after iroh’s death- especially being an adult. the cycle of war continues.
I think a series on a young Iroh, should be explored. It would go up to his failed siege of Ba Sing Se, after his sons passing, and the betrayal of Ozai
The Zuko cut was spot on
This was amazing amagi definitely need a part 2 asap
You got the Midas touch it’s just Gold everytime
Personally I feel Iroh would try and stay by Azula's side similar to how how he did for Zuko in the show since she was all he had left. Really enjoyed this what-if scenario, can't wait to see the next part!
I literally requested this question like 2 weeks I can’t believe you guys did it ❤❤❤ your guys are the best
I think if iroh was firelord the war probably would’ve ended a lot faster because of his leadership in the white lotus but also he is. A good man who knew he has a lot to learn now the war might not have ended immediately but it would definitely been over sooner
I hope I’m not the only one that audibly laughed when they threw in the “That’s rough buddy.”
I did too
Awesome new video it always makes me glad to see you exploring diffrent shows
I think this is pretty accurate, all things considered.
I think one of the oddest things are Azulon surviving long enough to do all that after being poisoned. It'd make more sense if something Iroh did was changed, rather than Azulon's death being delayed.
The biggest difference, of course, could be Iroh bearing witness to Ozai's plot and therefore being able to thwart it. He would DEFINITELY ask for Zuko to be kept alive as his heir as well.
Also odd would Iroh not being met with more distrust himself in the aftermath of the Moon Spirit being killed, but I think the events would still play out. It's mainly that everyone would be more apprehensive at taking Iroh's word, especially Sokka.
Loved this What If! Can't wait for a part 2 and more Avatar content!
Agreed
Ohh my God it's been so long since I've seen an amagi avatar video it's good to get back to your root
SAME
I am in awe tgat this is so well written
I dream of writing something as captivating as this thank you so much for sharing
This is Amazing! ❤️🥰❤️
Wish for a part two soon!
I've been waiting for this time line, Iroh rightfully deserved the role
Great great video... Straight 🔥🔥🔥
From Naruto to Atla, like going from Happy Birthday to Bohemian Rhapsody. Two iconic series, keep up the content!! Can't wait to see more universes! I'd put my hat towards Bleach, but that's just me
This chanel started from atla then he switched to naruto and other things
the amagi it would be awesome if you would make what if Kakashi was a hyuga what if Naruto was a full Uzumaki right guys
You mean minato full uzumaki. Because there is already a video of what if naruto is full uzumaki or was it what if naruto was raised in uzushio or uzushio never exterminated. I dont know
Kakashi as hyuga. He would be hiashi's younger brother or perhaps sakumo marries a hyuga
yes well let the amagi do it right guys@@ninjasolarteam
@@ninjasolarteam yeah i know lets the amagi reboot it
Bold move killing Zuko off. Personally I think it would’ve been more enjoyable if Iroh had Zuko with him while he was Firelord
Yeah I always assumed Azulon just wanted to see if Ozai would do it and would stop him if he went through with it
@Makarosc agreed I feel like if Ozai went through with it or tried to Azulon would not only stop him but either banish or disinherit him and call him a psycho for good measure
i agree
@@dj_scratchvinyl6246 While mostly inspired by South East Asia, there is a bit of Imperial Japan and the influence of the Shogunate in the Fire Nation of ATLA.
And bringing that history and culture into account, no Azulon would not have stepped in to save Zuko if he ordered his own son to kill his Grandson because of Ozai's dishonor. Infact if Ozai didn't kill Zuko, Ozai and Zuko would have been brutally killed and Azula and Ursa sold into Slavery.
Turns out the Genocidal Dictators based on real life cultures who attempted the same, aren't actually good people
Wowza, this was amazing, utterly amazing.
I was waiting for this and of course hoping
A really brave but brilliant take on Avatar. I like this. I want more.
We need more parts to this.
i'v been here since the avatar vids I cant back it but i saw your older vids on Avatar but its been so much naruto for the past for ever so its nice to see it a few more times.
This was a good start for this what if
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁👍
Now I'm interested in this version. Now you have to finish it.
This was captivating I would like this alternate timeline to continue
Wow, it was very interesting, please make part 2
Even after everything that happened to iroh, he’s still the kind peace loving man, even if a little miss guided.
Fantastic. U got my vote
Thank you for keeping Iroh’s words to Zhao unchanged. It was one of the most powerful moments from the wise old man and it deserves to remain intact
This feels so nostalgic, in the early Amagi days
can you keep this story going? its such a good what if
Very nice vid!
Please do What if Ozai was good!
i love this pls part tow of this
😁
27:57 I like the duality in this, in this story Iroh lost his first son to his father and grandfather's ambition, and his second to his brother's.
I can't wait for part 2
I can wait for part 2.
The OG videos are back!
Ah yes, the avatar has the same voice as kid Naruto. 😂
On another note though. You have definitely outdone yourself Amagi. This was an excellent interpretation of a great What If? Concept. I look forward to seeing what else comes of this.
I wish this happened to the actual show,it would be interesting to see their confontations if they meet
Very good. Please more what ifs for atla
Please do a Part 2 on this.
This was a very interesting video, full of neuances and insights. Iroh could indeed be a convincing (if sympathetic) villain. Sympathetic villains are still villains, and i'm glad you stated it in your video, even if not using those exact words. Also, you basically predicted Ozai's portrayal in the live-action "Avatar". I didn't watch the live-action series, but i heard that their version of Ozai isn't exactly Ozai as much as he's an adaptational villainy version of Iroh, being honorable and more "if i'll stop now, my whole life work was in vain" than being an analogy to Hitler. Obviously your version of Iroh is more sympathetic than the Netflix version of Ozai, but still. When your version of Iroh chose corruption over correction for very human reasons, i got the feeling he's an avatar too, in a way. Like how Aang is an avatar who wants to bring freedom and harmony, Iroh is a dark avatar who wants to bring a twisted form of stability and staying in line that will end up as oppression. TL;DR, your verison of Iroh keeps on doing bad things to prove himself he's a good father.
The only thing that wasn't perfect in your video is that Zuko dies in your version, which means he wouldn't be redeemed. Other than that, great video. Would you make a second part for it? And if Ozai is in prison in your version, would Azula replace him as the resident pure evil, or would she stay tragic and insecure like in the canon?
I need more of this pls
I love your vids
This was a really cool story and i would 100% watch a show based on it
Iroh wasn't pacifist till his son died
I thought he wasn’t a part of the White Lotus until AFTER he denounced the throne? When did he become a member based in canon?
27:16 Zuko coming back to life only to say this one phrase to Sokka💀
I love the Amagi
Nice work
BRO ITS BEEN A MONTH WE NEED A PART 2 BRO
To bring balance to the world, you must be willing to do what others aren’t
only weird thing here is omashu would be captured after the siege of ba-sin-seh and iroh only went through his spiritual journey which led him to join the white lotus after he lost luten...
A harder to write "what if" is "what if Luten didn't die?"
@@rogercruz1547Ba Sing Se would have fallen, the Earth Kingdom collapses, resistance movements all through the land, but ultimately the Fire Nation is dominant. Ozai probably still tries to poison Azulon, or Agni Kai his brother for the throne. The Water Tribes are dealt with, and Aang either never wakes up or wakes up in a world where the Fire Nation has won.
We need a part two
I know your not going to respond but pls can u do part 2 of what if narouto was never bornd ❤ I liked and subbed
I WAS JUST THINKING ABT THIS B4 I SAW THIS
Caught me off guard with " that's right buddy" lol
27:14 I love this channel 😂
Suggestion for another video.
What if Zuko had killed Ozai on the day of black sun when he had the chance.
Honestly if you keep doing what if scenarios with ATLA I'd just keep watching the videos the second they come out.
Hi love your vids
Finally orginal amagi content
I found your channel through avatar all those years ago
hes taking it back to the roots
We need part 2
What if naruto had sukuna and I found I way for sukuna to be a threat maybe he should be the ancestor or the founder of the kurama clan, Yuki clan and jugo clan. Also the creatures from the naruto movie satori, Moryo and zero tails are his creations, similar to the nine tailed beasts hagoromo created.
Also he should have chakra Thanks to kaguya's negative emotions which leek not only curse energy and chakra out of her during her fight of Hagoromo and Hamura.
That would make sukuna much more powerful than before, thanks with kaguya's negative emotions and battle of her sons will create curse energy and chakra remnants for him to absorb it which kinda makes him much more of a threat.
But how will the amagi make naruto as sukuna's vessel, maybe he should have a son name Jashin and is finding a way to revive him with the ashura reincarnation.
That will be a interesting story of sukuna in the naruto world
@@JakeHunter-ed4zv That would make a perfect way for sukuna to match against hagoromo, but also a way to make a perfect enemy for the story.
I would love for the amagi to make your idea into a video. Imagine Sukuna in Naruto body is being an absolute menace to the akatsuki and the 5 hidden villages.
We need part 2 😢
Normally I watch your Naruto videos but this sounds very interesting
Iroh being the Fire Lord would have made the scene at the Spirit Oasis a lot more interesting
i was hesitant to click on this because iroh is one of my favorite characters and to see him in a position that could make him evil makes me sad
Love it u come back to Avatar videos ❤❤❤
Please give us a part 2 please 🥺
I remember when this channel used to basically be an avatar only channel long ago
i bet he would have made a law saying everyone must take a daily tea break
We need more a part tooo
I think that the events between after the regular show and the Kora story line, with the creation of a city where all interact peacefully, would happen faster.
Finally a what if that isn’t about naruto!!!!! Let’s gooooo keep doing this with other franchises!
No joke I've watched it 10 times
Finally, you’re back to avatar contact I got in sick of your Naruto and I’m a fan of Naruto. That’s how I found you as an avatar RUclipsr.
Poor Iroh. His lot in life is heartbreaking at times no matter what, isn't it?
Cool content bro 😎
National Tea Appreciation Day is the only thing my mind goes too
That's rough, buddy...
What if Naruto had the cheat system
Please
Yea
