  • What REALLY Happened At Pride Rock BEFORE Simba Returned…
    In The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride, Disney fans were introduced to an entirely new Pride of Lions led by the villainous Zira and her children, Nuka, Vitani, and Kovu. The only thing is, many fans speculate that none of them were actually her cubs by birth. Well, if that theory turned out to be true, then there’s a good chance that one of the cubs in particular had a strong connection to Simba’s family. It’s starting to look like Vitani’s story might tell us the truth about what REALLY happened at Pride Rock before Simba returned.

    I can tell you EXACTLY why Vitani looked nothing like her brothers right now. The artist used a different style of drawing "lionesses" to male lions to begin with so audiences can recognise the gender of the lions. Then with this story, the artist had to differentiate Pride Rock lionesses from non-Pride Rock lionesses. THE END.

    They actually DID address this in the film, Vitani and Nuka are her and Scars kids. Kovu, however, is neither of their children. Nuka outright states that he was a wandering child that Scar found and took in. The other two though are DEFINITELY Zira and Scar’s.

      But we see in the deleted scene itself that Nala left the pridelands directly after she rejected Scar for the first time, and we know for sure that they didn’t mate during the scene itself (because Y’know… it’s a kids film…) so there would’ve never been an opportunity for Scar and Nala to mate.
      Plus, either way… that scene isn’t canon to the film, since it was deleted and they never acknowledge it in the film.

    I recently discussed this theory in one of my videos. While it may be possible, I personally believe that Vitani and Kovu were twins from Zira's second litter with a rogue male lion during Scar's reign as king after Nala rejected Scar's proposal to her thus running away from Pride Rock.
    And another thing: in fanart Zira's mother is often depicted as having blue eyes, so recessive genes are a possibility.

      @WolfPawStar88 That was my theory, too, when the movie initially came out, and I still feel this way. Scar definitely struck me as the type, who'd want his kids to call him by his name, rather than "Dad" or "Father" - think Jackson family patriarch, Joseph. It's been theorized that a premature birth or pregnancy complications caused Scar to look more sickly than Mufasa. It'd then make sense that, when he saw these traits be passed on to his firstborn, Nuka, he dismissed the possibility of naming the cub as his heir. Not wanting to chance that a second time, he ordered Zira to wait for a rogue male, who looked similar enough to him, to pass through the Pride Lands. That encounter produced Kovu and Vitani. Even though Zira said Kovu was the last cub born before the banishment, the twin theory still makes sense. Birthing two cubs would, obviously, take longer than birthing only one. Zira's labor could've gone on for more than a day, with Kovu taking longer to arrive than his sister. The birth happened, Scar named the male as his heir - he also seemed like the "boys come first" type - and Simba showed up the very next day. Within a week after THAT, the banishment happened.

    -Even if it was, in the scene itself, Nala rejects mating with Scar. And directly after she rejects him, we see her leave the pridelands to go find help. Therefore, there would’ve never been an opportunity for Scar and Nala to have mated.

    Vitani looks nothing like Nala she just has the same colouring as her like most of the lionesses do (all the lionesses have similiar if not the same colouring). Nala has a way more filled out face while Vitani takes on the Outlander look. From what l know Vitani is the second born of Zira and Scar but because Nuka was weak and Vitani was a girl Scar REJECTED both as his heir and asked Zira to get another one (another cub) which is where Kovu then comes in. Plus if Nala is actually Vitani's mother no doubt Nala would NOT have gone to look for Simba out of shame. Also if Nala was Vitani's mother Zira for sure would not have accepted her into the outlander pride, plus not to mention when Nuka says "he's not even our brother" he says OUR, Nuka is older than Vitani and therefore would know if she was related to him or not. Not to mention Nala has supposedly had 3 cubs already Kiara, Kopa, and Kion l doubt there was a 4th. Also the scene where Scar approaches Nala because he needed an Heir is very easy to explain: Sarabi was obviously going to stay loyal to the pride and Mufasa even though he is dead, and with Sarabi being the Queen and rejecting Scar he knew he would have to pick someone else, Nala was the perfect option for him because she is independent and obviously didn't follow everything her mother and the other Lionesses said including Sarabi, so Nala was the perfect target because she was indepenent and didn't always follow with the others. Although this is a good storyline there is just too much facts to debunk it.

    Now, I could have sworn it was established in the movie that Kovu is Scar's son, directly. But it has been a while since I last watched it. At the very least there was a clear theme that he, above all the other Outsiders, was the "chosen successor"' to Scar's legacy. He certainly bears a very strong resemblance to Scar (as does Nuka) so it seems reasonable to assume they're biological brothers and that Zira is their mother.
    While it may simply be a matter of "hard living" Vitani strikes me as being older than both Kovu and Kiara, and sufficiently so as to make it unlikely that she would be born after Nala reunited with Simba. Part of this may just be that there is no timeline set in stone as to exactly how long after defeating Scar that Nala gave birth to Kiara at the end of the first movie. We do know, for obvious reasons, that a significant period of time passed from when Simba fled into the jungle to when he returned to the Pridelands.
    If we are to assume that Vitani really is Nala's daughter my theory would be that she was born shortly BEFORE Nala left the Pridelands, and that Nala's departure was as much a "scouting mission" as it was a desperate desire to distance herself from Scar and his "unholy seed" (much as many women today wish to have nothing to do with a child conceived under traumatic circumstances even to the point of having that child's life ended). It wasn't fair to Vitani, obviously, and that surely would feed her bitterness if she were to learn of their relation later on. It seems entirely likely that after returning with Simba and dethroning Scar Nala would have had no interest in raising Scar's child despite the cub also being her own.
    She could have simply told Simba that Vitani was one of Scar's offspring and he'd banish her along with the other Outsiders without much thought to who the mother of this cub might be. Zira then would take Vitani under her tutelage and feed the bitterness, anger, and resentment towards Nala while fostering loyalty to her e.g. "unlike that arrogant, pretentious lioness who abandoned you I have been here for you and I made you strong."
    It is also possible that Scar would have been the one to plant the initial seed of bitterness towards Nala by telling a very young Vitani that her mother abandoned her, and depending on exactly how much time passed after Nala fled the Pridelands to when she returned Vitani may have been old enough to recognize her mother from Scar's description of her but kept her distance. While it is possible Nala and Simba originally had no intention of banishing any cubs sired by Scar as they had not done anything wrong just by being born seeing Nala so quickly move on to Simba and a new cub may have spurred Vitani to lash out, maybe even attack Kiara at some point between the end credits of the first movie and the opening of the second, and to prevent any further attempts Simba would exile the offspring, and Zira was waiting to welcome them into her own pride.
    This could explain the venom in her voice when asking "Where's your pretty daughter" and why Nala knew this outsider's name despite Vitani only being a cub when she was exiled, yet didn't seem to know Nuka or Kovu (again, to my memory and it has been a while so I could be mistaken). Having been gaslit and manipulated by Zira and possibly Scar as well Vitani could reasonably have been under the impression that Nala abandoned her for not being "good enough" but "the daughter of the pretty-boy you replaced my father with was worth holding on to." And the way Nala snarled Vitani's name wasn't disdainful or dismissive as one might be towards a mere "enemy," it was angry and vengeful, indicating a deep, personal, and arguably righteous hatred towards her which would certainly make sense of a young Vitani had attempted to eliminate Kiara in a fit of jealous rage.

      That’s why it was deleted… because it was disturbing. Deleted scenes are not canon in any film unless the film itself acknowledges them.

      It WAS supposed to be canon that Nala left Pride Rock not only to try find help, but because she was escaping Scar's advances as he wanted her as his queen, not Sarabi. Now whether or not they did mate and she secretly had Vitani...that's all fan theory but it would be disturbing because that insinuates Scar r'ped her.

This animation was not by Disney. There is a storyboarded and voice acted deleted scene of Scar coming onto Nala *and* the offical broadway musical makes a song and scene inspired by the deleted scene. *AND* that is the audio that the fan animation was then animated to. But this UA-cam video doesn’t use the deleted scene storyboard as background footage, it uses Eduardo’s animation instead.

    If Kiara, Kovu, and Vitani are meant to be about the same age (with Kovu and Vitani being slightly older) this doesn't fit.

    Another possibility is that she was Sarafina's cub with Scar or another rogue, but Sarafina died so Zira fostered her -- still, would have to be a very runty cub and born after Simba's return.

    I always thought she was supposed to look like Zira. Zira had light fur. She could have gotten her eye color from her father because it's stated in the movie that Scar wasn't Kovu's father which means he isn't Vitani's father either if they were meant to be from the same litter

  • @marayabond-clark7868
    @marayabond-clark7868 9 днів тому

    Honestly, this all makes sense to me. I always wondered why Vitani's eye color didn't match at all and why Zira never acted like a mom to her. I think it works because Scar would want to continue his own bloodline after becoming King, and he would have gone and slept with all the lionesses of age to have cubs. Vitani looks like the perfect combo of Nala and Scar now that I think about it, and it does make sense that Nala wouldn't want to raise a cub from someone like Scar, who forced it on her, while Zira would raise any cub related to Scar because she loved him and wanted to continue his power.
    Also, Nuka (the older brother in Simba's pride) was the biological child of Zira and Scar - it also makes sense he's older because Zira slept with Scar first by choice before he decided to make the other lionesses sleep with him - but he just wasn't "strong enough" to be a leader so that's why Scar chose another cub that was born to be his heir -> Kovu. What's always been weird is while Kovu was Zira's biological son, Nuka says, "Scar wasn't even his father, he just took him in" in the movie, so it's really a mystery who Kovu's dad is because we never saw any other male lion. What I assume is that because Scar's first biological son was so wimpy, he sent Zira out to go find a strong rogue male, get pregnant by him, and come back so that his heir would have better genes.

    I assume Vitani says that to mock Nala that Kiara is not present during the attack and that Nala is too soft to allow their daughter to fight... Or Vitani hinting she's gonna attack Kiara, hence Nala's motherly instinc kicks in...

    @andrewobrien8325 17 днів тому

    5:59 there is another possibility and I’m sorry to say I’m probably not going to say something that people will like….sooo uhh just warning
    Why do we assume Nala was pregnant with Vitani before she left the pride lands? I mean the film is pretty vague with how long Simba and nala had been adults for(so it could be that is longer than we assume). Anyway nala may have had Vitani before she left. However because Scar and Zira(hope I spelt that right) may have been feeling insecure in their position, cubs born to the other lionesses May have been taken to be raised by lionesses loyal to Scar including Vitani. This is a adaption of a Shakespeare play and this has happened in human history so maybe if we apply a little bit of human cruelty here, we could explain how nala is Vitani’s mother. Now as for why Nala and Vitani didn’t like each other. With Vitani I think she could easily have been lied to about why she was raised by Zira and by the time nala came for her cub it was too late(we also aren’t given a time scale between the pride lands and Timon and Pumpa’s spot so again we can extend it a little) or Nala may have wanted nothing to do with Vitani for reasons to do with….well Scar to try to be tactful about it. Vitani wouldn’t have understood and again could have been easily lied to. I don’t see Simba lashing out against cubs, it would make him kind of a hypocrite but I can see Nala simply having….issues around Vitani and her father.
    However that’s if I believe the theory and to be honest I don’t. Not because I don’t want to think about simba or nala in a negative light but simply because there could be about 50 reasons Vitani didn’t like Nala or her daughter including a few I can imagine and a couple I haven’t thought of. My final point i feel is worthy of merit but isn’t strong is that Vitani’s face shape doesn’t match either Scar or Nala….it doesn’t even seem to resemble a combined version, my honest fan theory when I was a kid was the Vitani was an orphaned cub that Zira took in to bulk up her numbers(it’s a good idea to be fair), could be Zira led to Vitani again or maybe hearing all about Nala and her daughter made Vitani jealous that she’d never had a true mother(Not for nothing but Zira seemed to only care about Kovu. Maybe she realised she cared after Nuka was killed but certainly not before. And the outlanders are clearly living in an environment where only the strong survive so While nuka was more of a comic relief character, we can safely assume it’s the reason the outlanders out fought the pridelanders as well and that means Vitani either grew up strong or simply didn’t grow up at all).
