  • Ok so we're doing this. Its been long overdue, but Im expanding my content horizons. What better way to do it, then with talking about lore of the Lion King and Lion Guard. Its a masterful example of the writing working out every supposed continuity error, if you give it enough time. Join me as I explore more franchises!

    Lion Guard Defend! 🦁

    Love the Lion Guard so much! It's probably still my biggest comfort show (even if I'm not fond of the ending), and while I don't think it's particularly canon, I do love that they still cared enough to explain where they were in the second movie.

    Okay, the Lion Guard is my favorite show and I'd love to see more. Also I do enjoy how this show did something you don't think of as impressive, trying to fit into a pre-existing story. In fact it kinda inspired me to make a KH fanfic I currently have in the works where it happens during the events of KH COM, DDD, and 3.

      The Lion Guard honestly did it better than MLP G5, there was actual continuity in it. Personally, I find it really hard to enjoy watching MLP G5, I think it would have been better off if they continued it off with Luster Dawn rather than skipping ahead hundreds of years and destroying everything Twilight worked for in the 9 seasons of G4.

      @@AvengedPanzer Then again, staying in the exact same world as the previous generation sort of gets rid of the point of a new generation. G5 had a good setting with it being years away, but it was still weighed down by the success of g4. The generations before 4 and 5 had it easy.

    The Lion Guard was honestly the only other cartoon airing at the time that caught my attention the same way MLP did. Despite the writing being more juvenile than MLP, it was what I noticed a lot of bronies wished MLP was: more action-oriented. I have always loved Lion King 1 & 2, and though TLG pissed me off sometimes, I thought it paid nice homage to the classic movies... and it managed to be a very entertaining show in its own right!!! I will always miss it 🥹

    I have always loved TLK!! I also love The Lion Guard! They struggled a bit with the animations in the beginning, I assume because of time and budget, and since it was a Disney Junior show, my guess is they put mostly interns and new hires on the show. But it has such an amazing story and the animations clearly vastly improve over the seasons 💜💙💚

    The lore of the lion guard worked amazingly! It took a bit to unfold and be fully understood. But it didn't step on any lore toes in the meantime. At the time, I was wondering how the seemingly fantasy power elements would feel since we had never seen any animals possessing them. I got use to it after a little bit.

    Here's a fun part about Kion's healing process. The Tree of Life turns out to be all the way in India, and when Kion's healing process is revealed to not be physical, as scars don't heal physically. A lioness teaches him about patience and reflecting. It is a simple therapy, but it also seems very much like he is being given some Buddhism teachings. As an anxious teenager, Kion definitely needed some slowing down to heal his mind.

By the way have you heard of the books were Kopa originally came from?

    Very reasonable and good video sir and as a diehard lion king fan since at the age of 2, I sorta liked this show and I really do liked the new characters too such as shujaa, kion, beshte, jasiri, ono, bunga and sometimes the selfish cheetah fuli (Despite not being based on further William Shakespeare characters which of what made the lion king franchise and its characters freaking iconic) and it could’ve been better if it was made for Disney channel and not Disney Junior. Also while older lion king fans don’t like it that much to be honest (Due to the show despite being a prequel to lion king 2 since lion guard creator Ford Riley wasn’t actually involved with the movie at the time during the late 1990s and was a secretary and writer for the franchise’s first tv show Timon & Pumbaa that ran from 1995 to 1999 and is unfortunately still enjoyable than this one due to that show made for both toon disney and disney channel itself and won accolades and emmy awards while lion guard didn’t). Also this show while being decent has a lot of zoology and animal fact errors that really irritates me such as like for example gorillas living the snowy mountains rather than the well-known virunga mountains and bwindi impenetrable forest and because of that despite being canon to the lion king 2, this show was clearly hit-or-miss to be honest with you doc anubis. Let’s hope Disney could softly reboot this show and remedying it in the future!
