God, did I really wrote this? LOL... This HAS to be fixed...


FIRST OF ALL, I ABSOLUTELY SHOW NO OFFENSE TO NALA FANS, AND I DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU LIKE KIARA MORE OR SO. I RESPECT YOUR OPINIONS, SO, PLEASE, DON'T BE CHILDISH AND DON'T FLAME ME FOR MY OPINION.

Okay, so... The post that I made, as it seems, KINDA LONG TIME AGO... My opinion had absolutely changed right now. So, I'll say:

Now I much much much much much more prefer Kiara than Nala. Why? Cause now I hate Nala. Want me to explain? Okay, but then don't flame me, cause you asked for me to explain...xD

So, you all say that Nala is perfect, flawless and so on... Okay, I respect you, but... I feel kinda bad for Simba, especially at the first movie. Cause...Okay, let's remember when Simba left the Pridelands after Mufasas death and lived with Timon, Pumbaa, and "Hakuna Matata"....And then Nala finds him, they recognise eachother, have a talk, then romance, then fall in love, and...? She then basically FORCE him to go back. If you ask me, I would be pissed off no less than Simba. And I perfectly understand his words: "You think you can just come here and tell me what to do with my life? " and then "You don't even know what I've been through!", Cause it's true. Like, you have an awesome life, you want to get over all the disasters you had to go through, and then suddenly appears one of your best friends, and tells you...No, not tells you, practically COMMANDS you what to do? To come back and face everything and everyone? And he/she doesn't even KNOW about what really happened? Okay, excuse me, but I would just tell him/her to go, where...Ahh, you understand, cause I don't wanna swear.

Okay, the second thing about Nala: Is finding Simba such a big deal? I believe that someone else has already said that, so I'll repeat: So, Nala ran away to FIND HELP. So, she found Simba. And what? Okay, let's remember her own words: " I left to find help. And I found you. Don't you understand? You're our only hope." .... Umm... Only hope????...Aren't there any other lions around in another lands? It's all like: Ohemgee, I found ONE lion, and now we're all going to safe and free and fed!!11 Yayz!1!! ...AHEM... How did she knew that Simba's going to defeat Taka/Scar? Is she's a witch/wizard, that she knows everything? NO. Did she gave Simba any special powers that she's so sure that he'll win? NO. So...What the hell? Why does she's so overjoyed and hopeful by only finding ONE lion, that, as it seems, doesn't even care and doesn't even want to care about what happens in Pridelands... Why can't he just live his own life without being flamed by her because of his lifestyle? Sorry, but I still cannot understand this...

And the third thing: Simba came back NOT because Nala wanted him to, but because his father told him so, and because he missed his mother, his family. Nala has absolutely nothing to do with him coming back, except the thing that she FORCED him to do so.

Okay, enough about Nala... Cause I could go on and on like forever...

Okay, Kiara...Why not to love her?

I'm just soooo glad that she takes ALMOST everything from her dad. From looks, to personality. She doesn't change much from cub to adult. Her looks always amaze me even more than Nala's (who, as you say, is the most beautiful lioness :S ) . Especially her eyes. I can't get over the cuteness of her eyes. The brown color of the eyes sooo fits her overall appearance...

And, what about her personality...Why flame it? I'm SURE most of you have been like that as teens. She just wants to be free, without being bossed by her parents (who, by the way, even MARKS THE WAY FOR HER TO WALK :SSS ) . And, another thing...Won't you want to be FREE to choose what you love and what you WANT to love? Why do parents have to stand in your way, when they don't even understand what you and he/she feel? I understand it, cause I have almost the same situation...

Okay, okay, I could go on forever... Every character has it's flaws, I know it. I still do love Kiara a lot. She might probably be my fave char out of all, if not including Mufasa and Scar...

SO, NOW, DON'T FLAME ME FOR WRITING DOWN MY OPINION, CAUSE I HAVE THE RIGHTS TO PUT IT DOWN AS MUCH AS YOU DO. IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT I WROTE HERE, JUST DEAL WITH IT, IGNORE IT, WHATEVER. JUST, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T FLAME ME. WE ALL HAVE OUR OPINIONS. I RESPECT YOUR OPINIONS, AND WANT YOU TO RESPECT MINE. OKAY? OKAY.

Done.

Yeah sure, we respect you for your opinion too, but your argument doesn't make much sense to me.

The way RD sees it:



Right... cause nearly starving to death along with the rest of her pride and being ruled by a heartless tyrant isn't feeling ANY pain like that of living the life of luxury.

One must assume that after saying Simba's their ONLY hope, there are no other males who sympathize with her situation and WANT to help. Not to mention, that whole royal heir to the throne thing wouldn't have a THING to do with it or anything >.>
And it should seem that compared to Scar's scrawny build, Simba is bigger and stronger, therefore more able to deal with handling taking Scar down, and setting the prime example as well as leading the lionesses in a rebellion against Scar and the hyenas.

The whole reason in my view for Simba not going back with Nala to begin with WASN'T because he was upset with her or anything. It was because he was afraid of his past. After his OWN father (who's death was the root reason behind his fear) spoke to him, it snapped that what he had to do, and not to be afraid anymore.

And I do not recall Nala grabbing him by the tail kicking and screaming for him to come back. She was merely trying to understand what had happened to Simba. After all, you said yourself that she didn't know what had happened to Mufasa. And the last she seen of him, he was ALL FOR being king! Therefore her confusion mixed with her own fear of what was happening to their home led her to try to CONVINCE Simba of returning to Pride Rock.

She only knew Kovu for HOW LONG again? -.-
Although it all works out in the end, and Kovu proves he's on PrideLand's side, I'm on the cautious parent's side on that one.

Are you seriously making most of this point on just her appearance?

Could you possibly tell me NOT to flame or mention flaming one more time? I don't think I caught it any of the other several times.

You can't tell someone to just "DEAL WITH IT". Especially in all caps for that's a rule breaker. This is a forum. You post in topic, therefore your opinion (though you're welcome to it as I am to mine), is free to be discussed. So I did.

Done.

And I'm absolutely happy to hear a response to my opinion. The one that isn't an overall shouting: "Ohemgee how dare you!!11!!" and something like that. It's freely allowed to discuss the opinion, and I understand it. Thank you.
And I like your responses. One day they might change my opinion, but not now. But I'll keep them in mind.
You like Nala, I don't. It's absolutely fine with me.

Wow. I wasn't expecting a reply like that o.o
Most times when I start a discussion it goes full blown into an argument and the other person acts immature.
I must say, you surprised me 8]
I appreciate your calm reply, and it's fine that you like Kiara ;]

I'm just not the person that likes to go into arguments, especially in discussions like this (about characters etc.) .
Now, I'll just stop this and let other people talk about characters instead of having to read our discussion. That's what this topic is for.

Most definitely Nala. She kicks butt!

I chose Kiara. She's always been my favorite next to Vitani. I can relate to Kiara a lot.
