I love this series. It's cheesy but it brings up a lot of cool things. I love all the new character development. Love the episode where Jane wants to adopt a leapord cub and Tarzan is like "do you remember who killed my parents?". I wish Rokonov could have been a recurring villain though. He is such a hilarious pain in the books.
But HE IS SO CUTE!!! (But I totally agree with Tarzan on this one hahaha) They changed so much compared to the books and maybe if the show was given a second season they would have brought back Rokonov for some more adventures.
Well, brother, I can say with confidence that I love the episodes involving the Waziri tribe and Queen La of Opar because of varying reasons. The Waziri Tribe, especially Keewazi and Basuli, could have been a wonderful family for Tarzan. Back when I was a 9-year-old third grader, I was always fascinated with how strong Basuli's and Tarzan's brotherhood really was to the point where I concocted an AU head canon where Tarzan was being raised by Chief Keewazi, with Basuli as his older brother. I contend that Keewazi would make for a superb father figure to Tarzan because of his sense of discipline, combat skills, and sagacity. Basuli would also serve as Tarzan's older brother because he has a strong code of honour and is a warrior through and through, thus making Tarzan learn a lot from him while learning a lot from each other. Therefore, Chief Keewazi, Basuli, and Tarzan would have made for a nice, loving, virile family consisting of a single dad, a super handsome and super muscular older son, and an athletic, beastly yet protective younger son. Moreover, Chief Keewazi was voiced by the late, great James Avery known to the sitcom world for his portrayal of Philip "Uncle Phil" Banks from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. I even loved Basuli's and Tarzan's epic roar before the end of "Tarzan and the Poisoned River Part II" in order to scare off Ian McTeague because of how I affirm that they are wild jungle brothers through and through.
Opar is my most favourite locale in the Tarzan universe. In the original novels, this was actually a place inhabited by beautiful women and men with extremely beastly features, with Queen La being just as fluent in the Mangani language while being an ally to Tarzan. In the show, however, Queen La is an outright tyrant ruling the anthropomorphic leopard men with an iron fist. Her voice actress was just as phenomenal, given that she was portrayed by Diahann Carroll who also had a fine singing career and was known for her portrayal as Dominique Devereaux from Dallas. La's chemistry with Tarzan is just as palpable, although he is just too loyal to Jane to ever want anything to do with her. In an AU scenario, Tarzan and La would not really be lovers, but more of rivals, siblings with Tarzan being the older brother to La's younger sister, and reluctant allies. Out of all the leopard men, I would have to consider Kaj, the leopard man in green, to be almost like a brother from another mother to Tarzan, especially evidenced when they were saving each other from the Kraken.
When all is said and done, Chief Keewazi's fatherly duties would never be boring, considering that he has Kaj, Basuli, and Tarzan as his most beloved sons. Despite how vastly different they are, they would be embraced by Chief Keewazi as his own flesh and blood.
I love them together as well. And when they meet up in a future episode and are just so brothers even though they really barely know one another. That's the best part of live, making up new stories using characters we know and love. Your version of Tarzan is great and I love that Tarzan would get that kind of family dynamic and wouldn't be such an "odd one out" with his family.
I'm always surprised to see how different the show and movies are from the source material like with Opar, I had no idea it was cool hahahaha. I was also a huge fan of Tarzan's loyalty, it literally doesn't even cross his mind that there is any other women out there for him than Jane. It was so refreshing instead of playing the jealousy story we've seen many times before.
It's always great reading new ideas and stories from people, thank you for sharing your universes with me =)
You are the only one who seem to have talked about this, legendary! Loved this show!
I know, it's so strange! I thought others had but when I looked it up barely anyone talks about it. I just hope that with this video people will learn of the show and Disney will do something about it and put it on Disney plus for others to watch.
Thanks for checking out my video =)
@@Lytane My pleasure 🧡👍
Tarzan's voice actor led another underrated tv show no one talks about called The Pretender. It's about a genius who can master any profession he wants and escapes a facility that kept him from his parents since he was a kid, goes around the country using his abilities to expose shady people in charge of said profession while searching for his parents and tricking the facility's agents searching for him. It's really sad you're literally the only person on UA-cam reviewing the show. I'll check the show out sometime on UA-cam if copyright hasn't deleted it yet
I've never heard of that show before but it sounds really interesting! I'll have to check it out and try to get Tarzan's face out of my mind hahaha.
Yeah it's really strange that no one talks about this show, I hope people do so we don't have to scour UA-cam for "Illegal" episodes and can instead watch them on Disney+
I love the series. Rewatched it many times , Its as epic as the movie plus proves it to be a part of bigger world, even involving magical one (frozen deserves tarzan btw but anyway)
It is SUCH an underrated series! I can't believe it's just been lost to time where no one talks about it. It also sucks that it shares the exact same name as the movie so it's hard to even look up!
@@Lytane indeed. Do you think it will get attention if shown this year on Disney plus?
The TV show rules
I know right!!! I wish more people would talk about this show, it's so underrated
Tarzan came out in an era were the most popular thing were pulp magazines, basically early comic books, so in many ways, Tarzan was the first comic book hero with reoccurring villains in plots in all 24 books
I wouldn’t say that Tarzan is a comic book hero as that implies a lot of images which these are more books. But it was one of the earliest serial stories which is really cool. It also has a lot of influences from the Jungle Book though
In regards to how Jane and the professor can communicate with Tantor, Tarzan mentions having taught them to speak to animals in the episode with Roosevelt, so it was addressed in the series; not to mention that in the film and TV series, gorillas and elephants (along with mandrills and at least one vervet monkey) seem to speak the same language (which is translated into English for the viewer's convenience).
Also, personally, I think that it would have been nice to have Tarzan and Jane as a couple that live together while not being married (I had no problem with it then and I have no problem with it now). It's not like Disney hasn't gone the "darker" path in kids media before; take the Gargoyles TV show for example (whom Tublat's voice actor also worked on as Goliath).
On yet another note, how come in the outbreak episode, Tarzan and the Porters didn't catch the viral disease?
It is also talked about in the episode, tubulars revenge or something? The original pilot. The point I was making was that the start to the show is a little jarring without any set up or explanation. So I suspended my disbelief but was a little annoyed when I sat the original pilot that addressed my confusion.
I fully agree with the married aspect. It doesn’t really add anything to characters or anything but Disney can’t have casual sex! Normally when Disney does something dark it’s usually with violence or heavy themes like with Gargoyles as you mentioned. But here it’s meant to be more light and fun so, no mating!
I’m not sure, part of me thinks that Tarzan might have an immunity growing up in the jungle. It could also be that it isn’t that viral after it’s initial outbreak. The people around the digging site were most impacted so maybe they got lucky? With todays perspective they were really lucky as they didn’t even wear gloves lol
This show was definitely worth the watch. And as far as Disney movie based shows go, this is probably the best I seen so far when it comes to characters, and storytelling at least. Almost every Disney movie based shows I come across too are either not as good or just mediocre. But I won’t lie that Aladdin, Hercules and buzz light year of star command has its moments of brilliance.
While I haven't seen every Disney movie shows I too would rate Tarzan as the best of the bunch. When Aladdin is in it's element it is better but this is just constantly good. The same can be said for Hercules but I haven't seen that in a LONG time so it may not be as good as I remember. Emperors new school has some really funny moments and Little Mermaid wasn't very good from memory. I'm glad they canceled the Beauty and the Beast one, that was pretty crummy.
And yet with all of that, Tarzan is also the one that can't be found anywhere due to legal rights :(
They could make a full feature out of some of these episodes
FOR SURE! And I'm surprised they haven't really explored a lot of these in the films. It's usually about Tarzan growing up and fighting man to protect the gorillas. But native tribes, La and Opar, Pellucidar are all fun places to explore as well and I would like to watch movies around them but oh well
I NEVER knew Tarzan had a series like Hercules or Little Mermaid!!
I think the tarzan series is the best Disney show to continue after a movie with all the references to the movie and must of story’s is actually really good
I think you are right! Thinking of other shows, Aladdin is pretty good but only for about half of the episodes. Hercules is also decent and I enjoyed it, same with Emperors new school but they still both don't have the consistent quality this show has.
And of course we will never be able to watch it legally unless Disney pays for the rights again
Personally my favorite villain in this show was Tublat and Queen La mainly because they we’re probably the biggest threats to Tarzan.
Tublat was so unhinged! I love that Tarzan always had to solve his problems with his brain, using that man side to it's potential!
@@Lytanea good showcase you can’t just rely on pure strength to win your battles.
One of my favourite episodes is when the two diamond mercs return and have a fight with Tublat, resulting in them capturing him
Tarzan is so conflicted about this because on the one hand Tublat is a complete monster who has tried to kill him and his family many times, but on the other hand he is still a wild animal that doesnt deserve to be taken from his home or killed
When he does choose to reacue Tublat they dont make it a happy ending: the gorillas are unhappy, Jane tells him not to do it tho she respects his decision, the mercs try to kill him, Tublat himself says he never shouldve come in his aid
Tarzan has a set of good morals and principles and he stood by them even if he didnt get anything in return
That is such a great moment in the show and one that is rarely done in a kids show. To have the victory be a matter of principle rather than an actual good outcome should be show more often. Instead of one of those "mutual respect" or acknowledgements of the good guy, Tublat says he'll still kill Tarzan.
I swear this show is amazing!!
@@Lytane the novels have a much more brutal Tarzan, who can fit with polite society but whose inner beast will still guide him in the worst times possible.
I remember watching this show as a kid and I had no idea that show based some elements from Edgar Rice Burroughs’ books. Coincidentally, the creator of the Tarzan series guest-starred on this show as Ed in “Tarzan & The Mysterious Visitor” which is one of my favorite episodes. My other favorite episodes are the Queen La episodes and “Tarzan & the Gauntlet of Vengeance” which Clayton’s sister appeared to get revenge on Tarzan who she believed killed her brother. Those episodes were the best! I understand how unappreciated and underrated this show is but it really got hooked into reading the Tarzan books. I really wished that this show continued with its second season even adding Tarzan’s human background, based on the books, that his late biographical parents are really Lord and Lady Greystoke. I’d love to Tarzan going to England after having one of the gorillas take over the role as leader of the tribe. Maybe having one of his long-last relatives recognizing him as the heir to the Greystoke fortune, his real name being John Greystoke. His reaction with the civilized world would be very interestingly exciting yet hilarious, e.g. him being a fish out of water, lol. He, Jane and Professor might be really surprised to see Tarzan’s jungle friends, Terk and Tantor came along, hahaha! And maybe after encountering old and new enemies, Jane reveals her pregnancy and she gives birth to a son at the end of season 2. Tarzan would name his child John, yes, but notably “Korak” which means “Killer” in ape language.
Anyway, these are my thoughts and opinions about this series even if they continue this show by adding mythos and lore from the Burroughs’ series. Thanks for sharing this video with us! {^_^}
No way, I didn't know that about the creator, that's pretty cool! Oh I loved Clayton's sister and that episode but like I said in the video it NEEDED to be a two part episode. It's set up and execution was too quick to be as effective as it should have been.
I have wanted to read the Tarzan books as well to see the other stories. But honestly, I probably wont hahaha.
I wish this show continues as well and going to London would have been a great set of episodes and would have expanded him and the world a whole lot more. It's sad we'll never see this, stupid Disney! They won't continue it due to their license issues but we can dream.
Thanks for sharing your ideas! I love reading these and thinking about what could have been 😄
Hell yeah I remember this show and movies
Such an amazing show! I wish Disney would put it on Disney+ already!!
Underrated and awesome show. I'd say it needs more exposure but it would be useless as long as Disney doesn't provide a legal way to watch it.
BTW, I too watched it with the russian text.
If it's the rights holding the show from an official release, do you have
any idea of when the rights to the original books fall into the public domain? Maybe then the series will be released on Disney+.
As for your question:
-Favorite episodes: Gauntlet of Vengeance, The Outbreak, Tublat's revenge and The Leopard Men Rebellion.
-Favorite villains: Laa and Tublat.
And to finish my comment, how's your channel THIS underrated.
It really is an underrated show and it's surprising that no one talks about it. I tried searching UA-cam for reviews but I couldn't find anything. That's not to say it isn't being covered because it's incredibly hard to search for this show.
Even putting in my exact tags and having (hopefully good, I think it's good SEO...) doesn't even put me in the first page of results. It's really odd. I can find review on the movie and I can even find uploads of the episodes but I can't find reviews or even my own video. I wonder why? So maybe that's why my channel is underrated, can't find it on UA-cam hahaha
Well Disney themselves are the ones that are prolonging the rights. They are so afraid of Mickey falling into the Public domain that they keep challenging and changing laws to keep him out. And so a lot of older things, even Tarzan, are affected by it. From researching the name "Tarzan" and the characterisation is still in copyright and I would say by extension other unique elements like Laa and Opar and Pelucidar would be the same. As this show pulls from more of the books it probably has much more to deal with.
I do think the Outbreak is probably the best episode of the series, it's sooooo goood!
@@Lytane hey, the Tarzan books written by Edgar Rice Burroughs have all become public domain in much of the world, except for Spain (until 2031) and Guatemala (which will wait until 2026). That said, Tarzan as a character is trademarked (with a register) by his creator’s estate, so we can’t use him without the estate’s permission.
The USA sadly has even less luck, since the last fully written one of them all is Tarzan and the Castaways, which will only become public domain decades later in the USA, on New Year’s Week 2062.
I think my favorite part from the show is when Tarzan faces giant squid or octopus in one episode
Yeah it was odd that it wasn’t on Disney plus but I have seen the episodes on watchcartoonlinetv but happy to see you talk about this .Many people don’t talk about it
All due to licensing and paying money to the Tarzan company. Disney is too rich to spend money you know?
I'm also surprised no one talks about it. When I did this review I was like the only one (and maybe still am, lazy to google it lol)
Cool!
I haven't watched some episodes but Thank you I Really Like the shows & your Explanation why don't you do More Videos on Shows Especially Martin mystery Spiderman & Amazing Friends
Hello!! Sorry for the late reply and I don't know if this will be of any help to you but I'll still give it my all.
As you saw in my video I really didn't like the "perfect" cut at the end, it's stupid and doesn't make any sense even in this world.
I think the ending should have been more despairing, it IS Danganrompa. I think he should have killed her, properly, or had come up with another solution to end the problem.
It almost feels like they just had to end it there you know? It's also hard to fully remember my thoughts as it's been years since I read the manga lol
If you do ever write up a new ending link me and I'll be sure to give it a read
I actually seen this show and while it's not as good as the first film. It's actually not bad and my favorite episode was the only where Clayton sister wants revenge on tarzan.
You are one of the lucky few them as this show is hard to watch nowadays!! I really liked the show and the clayton sister episode was so good, I wish it was a 2part episode though to make her more villainous but oh well!!
@@Lytane yep I agree I used to see this as a kid.
Mine was the Prison Break when Jane takes down the villain in her yellow dress...
Btw I think I found out the reason why the animation was so inconsistent was because apparently 10 different studios worked on the show.
I would not be surprised. That's Disney for you, trying to save some $$$ by getting lots of different people to work on a project to pump out a lot of episodes
@@Lytane not to say that it’s out of the ordinary to have different studios working together on shows, though it’s usually not 10.
I remember watching an episode of this show as a kid at my dad's place. I revisited the show back in 2019 & it's underrated. It's in my top 10 disney shows. I'm still obsessed with the movie. Glad I have it on dvd now instead of vhs 😅.
It's crazy how little people talk about this show. No one online even has done a review of the seires (aside from me) and so far it's in my top Disney shows as well. It's just so much fun and solid. Great ideas and execution
@@Lytane I swear it seems this way with a lot of disney shows. No one really talks about them except gravity falls, star vs the forces of evil, phineas and ferb, recess, kim possible, the proud family, talespin, and ducktales (original & reboot). There's so many good disney shows a lot of the cartoon community are missing out on. lloyd in space, the weekenders, aladdin the series, pepper ann, american dragon jake long, yin yang yo, super robot monkey team hyperforce go, the replacements, the emperor's new school, lilo & stitch the series, the buzz on maggie, brandy & mr.whiskers, teacher's pet, buzz lightyear of star command, fillmore, and dave the barbarian.
@@tvgamerstan6180 It's true and, don't get me wrong, I love the more "common" shows. Gravity falls is one of my top top TOP shows of all time.
Your other list though is great! I loved the weekenders, pepper ann and Jake long. Some of those shows I've never heard of, others I've seen parts of but never the full show run.
In fact I did a review on the Aladdin TV show a little while ago as well! I also plan to go through other Disney movies and check out their tie in shows because it's so cool to see them.
The tough part though is finding these shows. When most aren't on Disney+ or airing anymore it's hard to watch them. Also finding DVDs or physical media for some is even harder. Like Aladdin show isn't on Disney + nor is it easy to even find on DVD or VHS as it wasn't widely released. One day though I hope we can get them all!
I didn’t know
Neil Patrick Harris was in this show
Wow that must have slipped my mind as well, it's pretty wild to see who was in this show
Not sure if this’ll happen but there’s a chance Disney could do more with Tarzan as of 2023 the first 10 novels are now in the public domain.
Ooooooo who knows!! They may have to wait until they are all in the public domain as they do pull from lots of stories with the show. Then again I have no idea what contracts and agreements they have either. My fingers are crossed though!!
@@Lytane although given this show hasn’t been on air in awhile and it seems only a handful of people actually seem to care about it I doubt Disney will make a dvd release of it outside of Tarzan and jane
Actually didn't watch this show until I was 18. But I love it! A way better sequel than Tarzan 2 ever could be, doing a lot better World buliding and expanding on characters.
I watched random episodes on Disney channel growing up but didn’t watch the full series until I was 30 (which now makes me feel old hahaha)
Oh this is a FAR better sequel! Like you said, better characters and world. It also tries new things instead of the boring overused “be yourself” story in Tarzan 2
What was your favourite episode of the show?
@@Lytane Difficult choice, but I'd say The Outbreak, the poisoned river And Tublat's revenge are the closest. And while not a fav, I liked the idea of the lost Cub episode (with Tarzan being put into the same Position as Kerchak in the original movie)
i agree with all of your points, especially how some of the episodes are in the wrong order. Defo say its worth it. My favourite episode is Tublat's revenge, mainly because Tublat is my favourite villain in the show.
Tarzan has faced many enemies, animals, man, and dinosaurs, but none of them were apes. Tublat was that ape, and he has a personal grudge against not only Tarzan, but also Kerchak and his family, making this a truly menacing villain. Also he is everything that a gorilla isn't, he is extremely violent and also hinted to be carnivorous. But what also made Tublat stand out was he was one of the few villain Tarzan was willing to actually kill, heck in their true first episode Tarzan intended to have Tublat killed in the storm. the only other times I can think of Tarzan actually willing to go that far was with Hisa, Lar and Count Rokuff. Although Rokuff we never see actually get killed by the Leopards, and Lar returned in spirit form, but Hista was dead and buried.
Tublat was that recurring antagonist that took me by surprise every time.
And that's why this series did Tublat a disservice as it's pretty much all of his episodes that are in the wrong order. If they are viewed in the right order then him growing as a threat becomes much better and they make it feel like, can Tarzan outsmart him this time? Only because we all know he will lose in a fight. It's good to see some bad guys that test Tarzan in different ways.
I'm glad you liked the show, and I hope one day we can watch it in high quality on Disney Plus!
@@Lytane the novels have Tublat being a more passive character, but he’s still so screwed up (even before Tarzan arrived into the picture). He couldn’t care about Kala and her adoptive son at all, since he viewed both of them (but especially the latter) as strangers.
I liked the show, though my favourite Tarzan shows are actually Filmation's "Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle", the Wolf Larson series from the early 90's, and Netflix's "Tarzan and Jane". As for my favourite villain, that would be Tublat, Keith David just stole the show in those episodes.
Aside from this show I’ve never watched a Tarzan show only the movies. I vaguely remember a live action one but nothing that stands out.
Oh Tublat is great, always threatening and I love Keith David!!
Have you caught up with Colinlookback villain retrospective thr next villain is Crula de vil
I enjoy the show too mates
I'm so glad to hear it! It's such an underrated show and I hope more people discover it
Absolutely worth it. I was very pleasantly surprised by this series after discovering it just a few days ago. I'm sad there aren't more episodes.
2things I find quite funny though. 1) So who married Tarzan and Jane? The sea captain (not a thing they can do in real life but popular in fiction ) ? He clearly came back and dropped their stuff back off.
2) Jane and the Proffessor have clearly been in the jungle for months if not a year or two at this point. They can't build Porter a cabin of his own? He still lives at the camp while Jane and Tarzan get the treehouse. Not a nice way to treat your elders 😆
You are darn right! This show is fantastic!!!
I mean they may have gotten illegally married. I don't think they did the paperwork and stuff so I'd say Jane told Tarzan about marriage and how it works and the Professor probably did the ceremony. But I'd say it won't be recognised in a court of law lol
I think it might partly be due to the professor still doing his experiments so he needs the space and the camp is already set up for that. Plus building him a house from scratch would be hard and stuff, and they might not know how to do it and paying people to do it might be to costly. That being said, I think he should have some better living quarters, he IS old lol
@@Lytane The professor overseeing the marriage ceremony for Tarzan and Jane would actually make sense, considering he did just that in the source material (he used to be a minister).
I don't think the show was ever released on DVD.
From what I’ve seen, not officially no. I’ve seen some bootleg ones though and it probably has to do with that pesky Tarzan license which is a shame. That and Disney are pretty bad for releasing their stuff during this era as well
it is (coming from both 8 and 22 year old me)
Yup it is
No need to watch my review, summed up a lot faster hahahaha
I bought a bootleg dvd version of it.
Because of the extream copyright is that why House of Mouse only had Tantor 2 times ?
I would say yep! And if they made a current house of mouse they would probably steer clear of anything Tarzan sadly
@@Lytane Tarzan belongs to ERB Inc. So he can’t be used by the Disney company for a while, until the proposed Sony film will have flopped hard when it gets released in a few years’ time.
what about the episode with the baby jagular ?
That is such a cute episode and I'm glad they showed us that not all cats are evil in the world. They just want food like the rest of us but still have some respect at the end.
This version of tantor remind me of courage
Yeah I can see that, similar over the top scared nature but brave underneath for their loved ones. But at least Tantor can communicate with words instead of shape shifting his own body lol
Can’t decide on a fave episode but my fave villain is tublat
Tublat is such a menacing gorilla! If Tarzan wasn't smart he would have lost very early on. Too bad they aired his episodes out of order though!
@@Lytane in the novels, Kerchak, his clan and their tribe are from a hominin species not known to science.
They are all Manganis, Edgar Rice Burroughs-created ‘cryptids’ which are most accurately in the Bigfoot mould, rather than being popularly depicted as a menacing cross between a gorilla and a chimp, like in the Joe Kubert Written Comics.
why did disneyplus show Jungle Book on the Tarzan search ?
Tarzan is in the jungle, Jungle book is in the jungle. Both are about a child raised in Africa by animals. Both have them fall head over heals in love with the first female they ever see. So quite a few similarities. I mean they are VASTLY different but it's funny to see how many themes they share.
@@Lytane Not to mention that the literary Tarzan was actually inspired by Mowgli.
I'm so glad I grew up with this show & not that Lion Guard crap...
I've only seen one episode of Lion Guard and it was alright, though I doubt it would be as mature as this show. I don't think its a kids show, more like a 10-13 age range which is probably why you enjoy it more then something aimed at a lower audience.
@@Lytane Too be fair, a truly great piece of entertainment can entertain all ages. Heck, that's what the original Lion King did.
I’d be for Disney getting some of the rights again.
Same!! Then we could have some new Tarzan content and maybe the show on Disney plus!
@@Lytane supposedly they lent a film rights to Columbia Pictures this month
Mis Tarzan she married
Darn right!
Queen la remind me of Rita repusla
Too bad she didn't end up in a space trashcan though
How was the baboon going to blackmail Tarzen ?
He had information on a forest fire that Tarzan started years ago so he was going to use emotional blackmail and the fact that animals homes were lost and they could have died against him. But mostly emotional as he didn't want his mother to know
As GHASTLY as the animation was as kids you don’t notice or CARE 🤷♀️it was a fav of mine before school
I don’t think it is ghastly, maybe Gengar…. Yeah bad Pokémon jokes aside, it’s decent for a TV show. Yes there are better things but there are also MANY that are worse.
But you are right, i didn’t care about lower quality nearly as much as a kid
Do not reply to this comment with swear words I mean it I hate swear words and don’t reply to this comment with a rude reply either. If you don’t like my comment then don’t reply at all. If reality-warping powers were real is change queen La’s fate in return of La from Disney’s Legend of Tarzan. The reason I’m saying this is because she was my favorite villain in the series and I really wish they would have given her more screen time and episodes in the series. I was really disappointed how things turned out in that episode, especially the part where La transferred her spirit into a rat and got captured by Usula and I really think that was unfair. In my opinion, they could have done better. Here’s what should have happened In Return of La. After La takes over Jane’s body, reclaims her staff, and rebuilds Opar, she realizes that she can not stay in Jane’s body. Not just because Jane’s body is weak and useless but Tarzan would kill her and himself due to his love for Jane. So she would travel to a secret magical chamber that’s underneath Opar. La created this chamber many years ago before she enslaved the leopard men, as a way to restore her life in case she was ever killed and was able to make it there in another person’s body. La kept it a secret even from the leopard men. The only way for it to work is by commanding it with La’s magic staff. La would use the magic chamber to create a new faster, stronger, bigger, muscular and more powerful body. She would then tell the chamber to immortalize her new body. She also realizes that if Tarzan takes her staff and destroys it again her new body will be destroyed and she’ll be a spirit again. So she commands the magic chamber to transfer all her magic powers of her staff into her new body along with all the dark magic powers the magic chamber has. The chamber would even give La new abilities as well. Once her new body is created and her staff’s powers along with the chamber’s powers are transferred into it, her staff breaks and turns to dust. Her spirit leaves Jane’s body and goes into her new body. Her spirit and her new body magically fuse into one. La’s life is completely restored. Not only does she have the magic powers of her staff but she also has the abilities of any type of animal that she can use while in her human form. For example leopard speed and jump. She has super strength, super agility and can also turn into a giant. She can even have her body parts turn into animal body parts for example, leopard claws and octopus arm and transform into any full animal as well. She would also have elemental powers that would allow her to shoot any elemental out of her hands and transform her body into any elemental and control any elemental. Her new body would almost look like her old one except bigger, muscular, her hair would be black instead of white and her eyes would be red instead of blue. Tarzan fights La but he is no match for her due to her new powers and abilities. So the episode would end with Tarzan, Jane, and, Usula escaping from her and La trains her new body to prepare for her next encounter with Tarzan and creates statue warriors that are completely under her control. She also uses her magic to create a magical crystal ball that will allow her to see and hear everything in the world including Tarzan. Here’s what she would say before the episode would end. “ Run and hide all you want Tarzan but it will do you no good. For as you can see the queen of Opar is back and more powerful than ever." Also, Renard Dumont would not appear in this episode where he helps La(in Jane's body) get to Opar because I don’t see him well fit to be in this episode, and La while in Jane’s body wouldn’t try to ask Tarzan for help to get to Opar because that would draw too much suspicion for Tarzan. Instead after La (in Jane’s body) realizes she can’t climb up the cliff, she decides to take a different way to Opar and makes it there safely. This is how the episode should have happened and there might be a way to make this real. If Ron Mallett can invent a time machine I’ll go back in time and go to the studio that made the Legend of Tarzan series and show them this idea with my iPad. I’m sure they’ll listen to me and love this idea. For those of you who don’t know who Queen La is in Disney Legend of Tarzan. Here’s a link to a wiki website that can tell you everything about her. disney.fandom.com/wiki/Queen_La
Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I saw your other comment and realised I didn't say anything here so now I am! Also, no swear words =)
I'm 100% agreed that they should have changed La's fate, her ending wasn't that great. Maybe they thought they'd get a season 2 to continue things though?
I think your idea is great, though I don't think Tarzan would kill himself and Jane but find another way to save her (it still works though) Ooooo making her new body fused with animal spirits or something to explain why she has animal abilities on top of her staff would be cool and would be fun to see what she does with it.
Then we would NEED another episode to follow up on her and her new abilities but given the state of the show in limbo its sad we wouldn't get that.
I really like your idea and it fits with Tarzan and the vibe it is going after whilst making La a bigger threat for the future.
@@Lytane I would also make La’s new body bigger stronger, faster muscular and more powerful. Also her eyes would be red instead of blue. I another power I would give La is have her turn into a giant.
@@Lytane Also I just edit this comment.
@@Lytane If you have time could read my comment again.
@@Lytane I have been writing this new version of return of La with quotes in it do you want to see what I have so far?
I didn’t think it was worth because if you ask me they they rushed making this series.
Why do you think that the series was rushed? From my point of view the animation, stories and quality are all pretty similar to shows coming out around this time on Disney. The stories have lots of variety and some are fantastic as well.
@@Lytane If reality-warping powers were real, I would use them to change queen La’s fate in return of La from Disney’s Legend of Tarzan. The reason I’m saying this is because she was my favorite villain in the series and I really wish they would have given her more screen time and episodes in the series. I was really disappointed how things turned out in that episode, especially the part where La transferred her spirit into a rat and got captured by Usula and I really think that was unfair. In my opinion, they could have done better. Here’s what should have happened In Return of La. After La takes over Jane’s body, reclaims her staff, and rebuilds Opar, she realizes that she can not stay in Jane’s body. Not just because Jane’s body is weak and useless but Tarzan would kill her and himself due to his love for Jane. So she would travel to a secret magical chamber that’s underneath Opar. La created this chamber many years ago before she enslaved the leopard men, as a way to restore her life in case she was ever killed and kept it a secret even from the leopard men. The only way for it to work is by commanding it with La’s magic staff. La would use the magic chamber to create a new faster, stronger, bigger, and more powerful body. She also realizes that if Tarzan takes her staff and destroys it again her new body will be destroyed and she’ll be a spirit again. So she commands the magic chamber to transfer all her magic powers of her staff into her new body along with all the dark magic powers the magic chamber has. The chamber would even give La new abilities as well. Once her new body is created and her staff’s powers along with the chamber’s powers are transferred into it, her staff breaks and turns to dust. Her spirit leaves Jane’s body and goes into her new body. Her spirit and her new body magically fuse into one. La’s life is completely restored. Not only does she have the magic powers of her staff but she also has the abilities of any type of animal that she can use while in her human form. For example leopard speed and jump and gorilla strength. She can also turn into a giant. She can even transform into any animal as well. She would also have elemental powers that would allow her to shoot any elemental out of her hands and transform her body into any elemental and control any elemental. Her new body would look like her old one except bigger and her hair would be black instead of white. The episode would end with Tarzan, Jane, and, Usula escaping from her and La trains her new body to prepare for her next encounter with Tarzan and creates statue warriors that are completely under her control. She also uses her magic to create a magical globe that will allow her to see and hear everything in the world including Tarzan. Here’s what she would say before the episode would end. “ Run and hide all you want Tarzan but it will do you no good. For as you can see the queen of Opar is back and more powerful than ever." Also, Dumont would not appear in this episode because I don’t seem well fit to be in this episode, and La while in Jane’s body wouldn’t try to ask Tarzan for help to get to Opar because that would draw too much suspicion. Instead after she realizes she can’t climb up the cliff, she decides to take a different route to Opar and makes it there safely.
@@Lytane Because the episodes aired out of order.
@@Lytane Anyways Lytane Variety Show, what did you think of my idea of changing Queen La’s fate in return of La? There might be a way to make it a reality. If Ron Mallett invents a time machine then I can go back and change it.
OMG, It has been a while seeing this series
And it might be a while longer before you can see it again easily thanks to Disney and the rights. But some of Tarzan is entering the public domain so maybe one day they can just use it again
@@Lytane See how it goes I guess 🤷
@@Lytane Hopefully, Tarzan would get better treatment 🦍
