Google says episode 13:

Maybe someone got something wrong somewhere? Or perhaps it's whether or not you count RotR as the first episode?

They're counting 'Fuli Speeds Ahead' as a separate episode, as opposed to just renaming it The Search for Utamu. That's where the confusion seems to stem from on there, at least.


Anyhow, I thought this episode was really good. I loved the flash flood scene, and Muhimu's son is adorable. I just wish they'd had given us a name for the lil guy!

Oh. Well de derp I just won't bother with the episode numbers next time I make a thread, Google could mess me up again.

Onto my thoughts on the episode, it was really good. I liked that we got a sweet scene between Simba and Kion, it shows that they do have a loving relationship, unlike what some have feared. Loved the baby zebra, he was too cute! It felt a bit strange that weird zebra guy didn't get a line. Episodes that have small portions in which zebras appear? "Panic and run! Panic and run!" This episode which featured zebras heavily? Nothing, lol.

I very much enjoined this episode, I got the impression that The Zebra herd in this episode was different from the one that we usually see. Mufasa's appearance here made sense. I also enjoy the interaction between Kion and Fuli, when I first heard of the series I expected her to be Kion's closest friend on the Guard. Obviously having seen the series Kion's closest friend on is Buga, but I enjoy seeing how close Kion and Fuli actually are.

[quote="gothprincesskiara"]Ok I didn't like how Fulli saved that Gizzele, cheetahs cant leep that high, those legs were only designed for running not jumping. And Kion cant be strong enough just to pull a gizzele out of the water.[/quote]

I understand how you feel about that, but The Lion Guard are the closest thing that The Pride Lands have to superheroes, so I'm willing to let The Guard Accomplish things that they perhaps shouldn't do to look like amazing heroes. Now if Fuli zipped all the way around the world to sneak up behind an enemy, or if Kion lifted an adult Elephant that would stretch things to far even for me.
Another thing to consider is *FAN THEORY*: Perhaps The marks of The Lion Guard (which were bestowed by magic) Actually enhance the abilities of The Guard when there is dire need, providing just enough extra oomph to accomplish what is needed in the situation *END OF FAN THEORY

hmm never thought of it as the mark giving them a little bit more of strength, ok Ill take it
