[quote="Dutch"][quote="WildSimba"]Well, I think Scar is a better character, but personality wise, Kovu is better in most departments.[/quote]

He has a personality? He's like the Lion King version of Edward Cullen.[/quote]

Edward Cullen has a personality... just not a very bright one. Kovu's got a lot bigger personality then most of the characters, and how is he Emo? He doesn't walk around the whole time cutting himself and saying how much he hates his life.

Read Akril's story: The Road Less Traveled. It might change your mind on that. :D

Kovu in the film just was always such a victim which was just too annoying after awhile. I mean, I'm not into him and don't blindly love him so maybe I'm missing something there. But it's characters like him that are victims no matter what that are emo. I mean there was even a song about why his life is sooo hard; I don't see how that's not emo.

It's only considered "emo" if the person either constantly makes themselves a victim or if that person constantly complains about being victimized. Kovu does neither.

And if I'm correct in assuming, you're talking about Zira's Lullaby, where Zira describes the harsh lifestyle that she and her pride live through. It's the only thing I can think of that comes close to your description. Or maybe One of Us. Either way, unless he's the one singing about how tough his life is, I'm not sure how you could mistake it as evidence of his being "emo".

He's just an unhappy guy who has had an unhappy childhood and unhappy thoughts put into his head for his whole life. Unhappy =/= Emo. If the story had more plot development, he may have had his chance to be "emo", but Disney decided to skip (or forgot about) the part of the story where Kovu snaps a couple times and vents his anger and angst about what his mother did to him over the years.

Final conclusion: potential to be emo, but not emo.

Lol, because Kovu is awesome! I really like the idea of the lion king 2. A new lion, also known as Kovu, comes to the Pride Lands, and was trained his whole life to be bad, is stopped by the one person that trusts him gives him the few things he would have probably never really had. And that's the love and friendship Kiara showed him, even if she knew that he was trained for evil perposes.
