Another Sarafina Sighting?

That is most likely Sarafina by Nala in the pictures, I believe she survived Scar's reign.

I think you're definitely right about Sarafina being the one to help Sarabi to her feet in the first screenshot. In the last one, I think that lioness looks like Sarabi without her ear rims or light colored toes. But I've always believed that Sarafina was still alive after Scar's reign. Never really had a reason not to.

That explains it all! I believe it is Sarafina helping her up!

Which one the one that has a madish face thats sitting up or the one with the mouth kinda behind sarabi

[atouchofgrace]

I've read that before. It could be her, I guess.

Unfortunatly, the animators have not put much work in giving the lionesses (except Nala and Sarabi) charecteristic looks. The design of the pride’s lionesses change from scene to scene, and finding a lioness that could be Sarafina is very difficult.

But this is also true, so it's hard to know for sure.
In my opinion, Sarafina is there. If she had died during Scar's reign, I think Nala would say something about it.
Sarafina is just a random lioness. She has only one line, no personality, almost no screentime, looks like a Nala clone and we knowing her name is pure luck. She's just there to be Nala's mother. After she grows up, she's just a random lioness like any other.

Yeah, I don't think she died during Scars rein, but she could have, we never know, as that could very well be her, but it might not be. As I've said somewhere before, the lioness in Scar and Mufasa's Prides vary quite considerably, and the number of them change a lot too. So it was just the way the animators animated it, really. There's nothing we can do about it. I like to believe that Sarafina survived, I liked her, even though she barely had any screentime. Then again, she might survive, but die before Simba's Pride came out, because she wasn't in SP. But it was created by other people, so that lioness in the first picture could be Sarafina, but I find it more likely that the animators just colored her that way and didn't really think about who the lioness was, because very few of the lionesses actually get given names, so that may not be Sarafina at all. We'll never know.

I like Sarafina too, even if she has a minor role. (I love Gopher for some reason and he's also a minor character).
We'll never know.

I don't think Sarafina died. I think that all your theories are correct. Sarafina is present at the battle.

I agree that Sarafina survived Scar's reign, why would disney kill off a good character unnecessarily? I think the lioness that helped up Sarabi was Sarafina, and the lioness that roars next to nala in the end roar is sarafina, and even though her eye colour's wrong I think the lioness who pounces on the hyenas after sarabi is sarafina

[Pocahontas]

I've pretty much always thought those lioness mentioned (helping Sarabi, passing Simba) were Sarafina. I've always enjoyed the character and figured she would have survived Scar's reign. I really have no idea why the number of lioness keeps changing. How would seven defeat that many hyena's? Maybe the others were in the cave or something?
