    LOL, yeah I know what you mean, something that annoyed me a bit about Kovu in SP is that I think he turned too quickly on his own pride.
    Plus when Zira hits him a scar won't form that quickly, I understand it's a disney film but really he shouldn't be able to open his eye and it should be quite bloody.

    The eyes just bothered me...If they had been blue I wouldn't have minded, but green and yellow just don't match...

    Aaww, porr Nuka. I see what you mean about Kovu's eyes, i find that especially true in night scenes but in the day it's not too bad.

    Personally i think they should've kept with the whole white eye background for night scenes like in (most of) the first film. But hey, that's life!

    Personally, I never had a problem with Kovu's appearance until everyone started thinking he was Scar's son. I get irked whenever people can't distinguish between their manes and pelts. As far as his eyes go, I think they?re cute. I?m glad the animators did not design them to be similar to Scar?s eyes.

    If the animators were to change anything about Kovu, I wish they?d make his mane a lighter brown color instead of being dark brown so that it wouldn?t look so black in color. It wouldn?t have to be a drastically lighter dark brown but light enough to tell it was not black and dark enough so that it would not blend in with his fur. :kovusmile

    i think in the original script kovu was supposed to be scar's son, thats why they designed him to resemble him. i personally dont think they look that much similar either, but i guess to regular non-tlkholic people he might resemble scar.

    Yes, you're right, jannali, in the original Simba's Pride script Kovu was Scar's son. However, the production crew soon realized this would be incest (Kiara and Kovu would be cousins) and did a very sloppy job of trying to make it so that at every point possible Kovu's parentage was denied.

    I like to think Zira -is- Kovu's mother, and Kovu's father was just a rogue. The problem with Disney is that offspring always have to look like one of the parents (Kopa automatically comes to mind). Kiara, however, actually looked like neither Simba nor Nala, perhaps the first cub not to be a carbon copy of a parent.

    Kovu's facial expressions are particularly cute, especially when he's smirking with one eye narrowed and the other raised smugly, as in this picture.

    The picture above comes from this website. I take no credit for it.

    I don't think Kiara looks a thing like Sarabi.
