the ending scene when aang opens his eyes at "history has its eyes on you", it's fitting because there are generations of avatars living within aang so generations of historical figures literally had their eyes on zuko

I have to admit, Uncle is probably the best source of wisdom.

“Did Jet just… die?” “You know it was really unclear”

At the very least Toph doesn’t have her eyes on you❤️

When you think about this being Iroh who's telling Zuko all this that history's watching...damn. It's very true and not just because he was from the royal family of the Fire Nation!! His mother committed treason and murder to protect him, Zuko became a master bender by HARD WORK and his difficult life growing up, was in exile for years looking for and trying to catch Aang, eventually frees Appa which triggers a change in him, teams up with his psycho sister, switches to Team Avatar becoming Aang's teacher and friend, learns the real "trait" of firebending from the dragons, takes on and beats his sister with Katara's help, becomes the new Fire Lord, goes through even more craziness post war, and eventually founds the city neutral zone with Aang....phew that's a mouthful.

ATLA and Hamilton? Omggg

It really is interesting that we never see the moment where Iroh called off the siege of Ba Sing Sei and all we know is that it was soon after his son died. I like to imagine that after Lu Ten died, Iroh stopped and looked around at all the soldiers in his command. All of a sudden the stopped being just soldiers, but the sons of parents who might never see them again. And for what? The conquest of Ba Sing Sei? Why was that important? Why was that worth throwing away the lives of all these young men, these sons of now shattered families? And that's when he realized in the big picture of things, the war was a 100 year mistake that should have NEVER happened. And that's why he called off the siege. This animatic I think really captures that moment and that feeling. What turned Iroh the feared general and the "Dragon of the West," to Iroh the sage and mentor of the next generation.

love the last scene where aang opens his eyes, it was haunting

Somebody explain why I started wanting to cry when Jet showed up at 'who dies'. I suppose he's at least better than Yue, the only other character who died on screen. That would have made me ugly cry instead of just sniffles.

"Who Lives,Who Dies-" *Shows Jet* Me:God Damn It,Dude.

This makes sense cause through the show they mention Iroh’s “Great failure at Ba Sing Se”. Or it was called something like that.

Fucking CHILLS at lives/dies/tells your story. In cross-fandom animatics with this, it's always my favourite part because of the sheer amount of symbolism you can fit into a few lines. Masterfully done, all round.

I love that this was Iroh and Zuko because I expected it to be Roku and Aang! I'm happily surprised.

I love how TOPH is the one who tells your story you have no control over

I like the style of animation, suits the song

"Who dies-" Shows Jet *Starts crying*

There's a good reason why this has no dislikes! This is very well done! :D

Ok, first of all, LOVE IT!! Just great, 100% perfect! But... I can't not imagine Zuko singing this to Aang. I mean, he made all mistakes, all for glory - to win his father's love, but for glory nonetheless -, he obviosly witnessed death, he led his men to doom with the avatar hunting, he changed his mind and made into Team Avatar, he saw horrible things happen to people without having control over "who lives, who dies" and I can see he telling Aang "history has its eyes on you".

I’m late but… avatar and Hamilton. Together. This has to be amazing

The really sad thing is that Iroh tried so hard to get Zuko to learn from his past and mistakes instead of wanting Zuko to repeat them all. And he was so happy when Zuko finally realized. The only thing he didn't like was having to watch him suffer through it. But he always knew that Zuko needed to do this for himself. He knew when to step back and let him deal with his own consequences and when to step up and support him

*I can’t help but hear this song while reading ATLA and LOK comics that deal with the aftermaths or beyond; the protagonists won the bitter day with uncertainty to follow*

If I had a nickle for everytime I saw an A:TLA animatic based on "History Has Its Eyes On You," I'd have... Well, 2 nickles. Which isn't alot, but it's weird it happened twice. For real though, fantastic work.

THIS IS SO UNDERRATED!!!! EVERYTHING IS SO PERFECT!! I LOVE YOUR STYLE SM

This is... this is good my god

Iroh really blames himself for Lu Ten's death and treats Zuko like his own son Best Uncle Ever😊❤

Katara lives. Jet dies. Toph tells Zuko’s story.

Why did I think this would be Aang telling this to all Korra? Either way love it!

Uncle wisdom bending constantly

I appreciate that whoever drew this took the care to draw Zuko’s hair grow as the song and story go on so you can tell time has gone by

"Avatar the last Airbender." (THIS is the part that they DON'T tell you.)

Wooaahhh I loved the ending bit, seriously gave me chills

Literally this is so perfect. The song choice, the colors, the drawing, the emotions!! Nice work!!!!

So.. when iroh was younger than zuko, he looked older than zukos father?

This gave me chills. This song matches the theme and animation so perfectly

My heart felt like it got ripped out of my chest when Jet came on screen.

This is what got me into hamilton. This one video right here!

I love this. This is from two of my favorite things. Words cannot express my amazement for this video! You did such a good job and Iroh as George Washington was amazing and they remind me so much of each other! Great Job!

This is too good. I absolutely love it

Welp, there goes my daily cry

1:27 Animation: epic Song: emotional af My last braincell: *Avatar state, yip yip!*

Those look like the eyes of Bill Cypher...

I'm not crying, you're crying.

People always be leavin out Suki 😤

If lin manuel miranda makes an atla musical I'm watching

Uncle makes the greatest tea in the entire world

OH MY GAH I FREAKING LOVE THIS AAAAA-

THIS FITS SO WELL WTF??!?

This song works so well with the avatar series, I love the animation and I think the story could also work with the past avatars, but Iroh does have a special place in my heart 🍵

The more I think about it, the more it is true Edit: also view numbed 2^5 lets go!

Iroh was truly a better man, ruler and father than Ozai, Azulan and Sozin combined. He has the strength, wisdom and understanding. Those three are the worse examples of leadership, if anything there’s monkeys that can do their jobs better. And if I had to go on a limb, I’m pretty confident that Ozai has done some purges himself like doctors, artists and people who he considered inferior.

I got goosebumps. You absolutely nailed it

Oh my goodness this is an absolute masterpiece. Thank you for blessing me with this greatness. 😌🤌🏼

ITS MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS IN THE ENTIRE WORLD OMGOMGOMGOMG THIS IS PERFECT omg

Two of my favorites fandoms coming together. I love this.

I was not prepared to be this emotional

This was already a emotional piece but this vid really made me get goosebumps and chills π~π

Chills, this is incredible

Damn this fit well you had the proper character for it and everything

This literally gave me CHILLS

This really fits Iroh 😅 Like holy cow

ok am i the only one that burst out laughing when i heard george washingtons voice attached to uncle iroh

The fact that Iroh is telling all this to Zuko... absolutely amazing.

crying, screaming. but most just crying. i love uncle iroh.

The edit we never knew we always needed

Teo of my favorite things combined. I loved this so much

Omg that last scene where Aang opens his eyes!!!! Also amazing animatic!

Omg two fandoms I love combining… avatar and Hamilton! (The song is from Hamilton)

giving me chills, the first lines match so much with uncle Iroh backstory

I feel like this could also be Aang talking to Korra. Of course, Aang would be referring to the first time he tried to attack the fire nation, and most ppl got captured.

This is amazing keep up the good work

This would fit 100 times better if it was Zuko talking to his daughter because Zuko retired and Iroh became an immortal spirit

I love how this perfectly explains what older individuals are trying to do for much younger ones when they share their experiences. I only realize this now that I'm almost 40, but yeah. They're not trying to nag, they're trying to help you. They aren't always RIGHT, but where you might see a sour, grumpy old fart might actually be a person who doesn't want to see you make the same mistakes they did, regardless of how the times have changed. We only know what we experience ourselves while alive, after all. And yeah, that old fart might actually be mean for real but the point still stands: Be they a stranger, relative, or family friend/etc, they cared enough to try to advise you. Again, not always correct advice, but the thought is there. History is watching us right now, btw. I wish I could know what they'll think of us... ... probably that we were fk'd up, just like we think that of everything ever done in the past that was even slightly rude lol Beautiful animatic btw. I don't like this show, personally. I liked Kora a lot more, but this animatic is really nice.

Bro this is so well done, I got legitimate chills. Great job!

Well great now I have to go rewatch Atla AGAIN 😭

The ending gave me chills

Avatar with a Hamilton song, I didn't know I needed it, but it's the best thing that's ever happened to me

im a big fan of hamilton and Avatar and this FITS SO WELL IN THE STORY!

WASHINGTON'S VERSES ARE PERFECT FOR IROH

I have never seen Avatar used for a Hamilton animatic. It's awesome! I love it! I would love to see more.

Aaaahhhh this is perfect for Zuko and Iroh

this is so beautiful!! wow just wow

Incredible!!!

It fits and it's actually really upsetting But this is very pretty and gives sireal vibes in a weird way I didn't think would come from it so good job!

Hamilton Musical slaps

My favorite musical with one of my fave shows!

THIS IS PERFECT

Holy shit HOLY SHIT THIS IS AMAZING

Not gonna lie, that was pretty good! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

i gotta say it was emotional and it has this sorta inspirational/hopeful vibe to it. Really cool

Woah! This animatic is a true marvel! Love your art style and the idea of this whole video!

Chills... literal chills!

THIS IS AMAZING!! ✨

As a fan of both ATLA and Hamilton, this is perfect. Thank you

I am mad that I didn’t find this sooner! It’s soooo good!
