when nuka died he sounded werid he sounded like he was a cub

It's a shame that Nuka died

Yeah^, I get sad everytime I watch it.

It's just a pity. All he wanted was his mother's love. Unfortunatly, he had to die to get it D:

Nuka like always, is my very favorite character. <3 All he wants is his mother's love and to please her but he never gets her mother's love until he died. Its just so sad, but Zira finally see's a Scar in Nuka, when he almost tried to kill Simba for her and Kovu didn't do anything. Nuka well always be such a special character to me. <3

Nuka's really grown on me. I love his design, his story, and I feel pretty bad for him. All he wanted, IMO, is a normal life and dreamed of having a loving family because quite frankly he seems like the type of child that would really need attention. It's one of SP's few genuinely emotional moments when Nuka dies. Especially for a character they don't really explore.

And I do believe his is the child of Scar and Zira.

I thought nuke was hilarious! Especially when he was just talking normally then he screams "AH THESE TERMITES!"

Anyone noticed how Nuka reminded Scar? Not only physically. He wanted to be king so bad too, he was kind of mad, he was always ignored, always this thought of being 'not enough'.
Nuka is my favourite character of SP. He's funny and crazy and tragic at the same time. Like, you know, it's different level, he's not completely like hyenas or whatever. For children watching SP, Nuka is just funny and maybe even disgusting freak, older ones can see the whole sad things about his personality and life. I think Disney people knew what they were doing while creating Nuka.
The Outlanders were the only reason I watch SP: I think the whole Kovu/Kiara and Simba things are sooooooo boring.
And seriously, I cried more on Nuka's death than on Mufasa's.

Nuka irks me a little because he`s one of those over-the-top comic relief characters, that I feel try too hard to be funny. Or maybe I`m just getting old, haha.
Nuka does however have depth to him as well, with the way he is jealous of Kovu because Zira gives him so much attention, and the way Nuka tries to gain Ziras approval..
I don`t think he really is, but I like the idea of Nuka being Scar`s son because he must have been such a failure and disappointment in his eyes.
