My Lion King Forum

Sarabi does not appear at all in SP, and there is some arguement about wether Sarafina is there or not..

But for the sake of this discussion, let`s say that both lionesses were alive and well during Kiaras cubhood. Do you think Kiara would have a good relationship with them?

Who do you think she would have spent more time with, Sarabi or Sarafina?

I would say Sarabi. Sarabi has more of a spirit and is more adventurous than what we know of Sarafina. She would most likely want to join in Kiara's fun and games than reprimand her. Sarafina would probably just give Kiara baths, and I'm sure she wouldn't like that.

^ You can't know that for sure, Sarafina had only one line. Who knows, maybe she's actually more energetic than Sarabi

Well, I believe she'd spend her time with both lionesses and respected them. I don't think Kiara would pick favourites.

I think Kiara would have a good relationship with them, respecting them and being advised by them. But we still don't know whether Sarabi and Sarafina were alive in SP...

I think Kiara would have been really close to both of her grandmothers

I think Kiara would have been closer to Sarabi so she could tell her about Mufasa.

Sarabi for adventure and the history of family

And Sarafina for the Bath time

I personally think Kiara would have an equally good relationship with both Sarabi and Sarafina. We know nothing about Sarafinas personality, but I`m sure she`s good at more than giving cubs baths.. She did a pretty good job on raising Nala, imo.

I think Kiara would enjoy listening to the two lionesses telling stories and sharing their excperiences from hunting and fighting. I love the idea of Nala and Sarafina giving Kiara instructions in hunting, f.ex, or Cub Kiara taking a walk with Sarabi and playing with her.

Like Kopa23 said, I don`t think Kiara would pick a favourite.

^ I can see that..

Actaully, if I were to redo the Lion King 2 I'd make the new daughter have a closer relationship to Gramma Sarabi than anyone else, including Simba. So yes, I think she would've been close to her gramma. But I think they got rid of Sarabi because her voice actress died before the movie was made.
