love me some kiara and kovu from lion king 2 being so human straight they end up breaking lion gender norms without even trying

"It's the LIONESS'S job to do the hunting" Scar says in lion king 1 "Where is your hunting party!?" he demands of Serabi the former lion queen, "Pinned ya again" says Nala the lioness who grows up to continue pinning Simba the future lion king bc he sucks at pouncing

and then here comes Kiara, lioness, future queen- also absolute rubbish at hunting and pouncing

it's her boyfriend who can do the pouncing, not her

three out of the five only other lady lionesses have been far more into ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK thing than talking (nala almost murdering simba during their reunion, zira and vitani in general)

contrast mufasa in lion king 1 ready to accept a challenge FROM scar but wouldn't make one himself even tho he's got the lion's share of brute strength between them, then simba, while reclaiming pride rock, gave his murdering uncle an offer of MERCY him regaining his place as king started with him trying to TALK to Scar it only turns into a battle bc of Scar, Simba, the rightful king, tried to do things peacefully

and here comes Kiara, the peace bringing girl character, which for humans, yep a troupe, but for the lions in these two movies? Not so much

EXTRA CUTE BONUS FOR

lion king 1 is like "every lion dude wants to be king" nuka from lion king 2 is like "hey i am ALSO a lion dude! I should be king!!" Zira from lion king 2 is like "Kovu you are a lion dude that this dead guy chose, so YOU will be king!"

human society like

"guys are the leaders" "heroic guy characters should want to be in charge" "here's a million stories of the scrappy guy character becoming king/chief/captain" "here is a lady who trained her whole life to do Thing but this guy who only just started Thing will be better than her at it and then they will Kiss"

meanwhile in lion king 2...

Kovu meets Kiara and goes "maybe i don't wanna be king maybe I just wanna run around and be silly with her :( stand by her :( follow her lead even when running away would be easier :( maybe try teaching her how to hunt :( go star gazing :( :( c-cuddle :( :( :( Simba let me back in the pride you can be king its fine please i miss my girlfriend :("

it's so funny, because for straight human characters, Kiara and Kovu are surface level typical- except also not, thanks to Kovu 100% just goes I Don't Care I'm Literally Only Here To Stand By Kiara and Look Pretty-

but the ways they're Human Normal just makes them so very very Lion Odd by accident

anyway. future movie where lion queen kovu ends up hunting with the lionesses while lion king kiara deals with morning reports / prideland politics and maned lioness vitani patrols with her 5 girlfriends ok that's my canon now bye

ive only seen 3 episodes ft. this guy, but that emo hunter boy from the owl house and kovu from lion king 2 are the exact same guy

[casswithmywholeheart]

Kiara and Kovu from Lion King 2 were peak romance. They made each other want to be better and they did. 10/10 show-stopping incredible. "In a perfect world, one we've never known, we would never need to face the world alone. They can have the world; we'll create our own" like okay?????? Coming out here slamming me in the face with such poetry????

I really like how much time and effort they put into the lyrics of “Not one of us” in The Lion king 2. Like it shows that no one if over the traumas of what Scar put them through. And they acknowledge that yeah, Kovu was treated horribly and raised in a household full of hate, yet they can’t find it themselves to give him the chance to prove he’s different because they aren’t ready to deal with the trauma they went through. Especially with him looking so similar to Scar. Idk I just love the lion king movies so much and I can go in full rants about them

Anyways thank you for coming to my tedtalk
