ep 7: fulis new family

[gothprincesskiara]

ok after seeing this one I have to start over and go through it again, cause OMGOSH there is so much to say about this one and the NEXT!

They did the Right thing with going to Rafiki again, dont need to worry about him not being the doctor in the PL.
I have changed my mind about Bunga now, I admit he really is annoying just as Timon and Pumbaa, and not only that I hate to admit it guys he is the dumb one of the bunch, even dumber then the hyenas themselves, and he is being more dumb then helpful, in ROTR he was cute and funny, but when it comes to the series, No just No, and I hope they address this in another episode concerning Bunga. SO unless Bunga changes his attitude or behavior, he will now be added to my least favorite character list, I mean I didnt say anything about him until now this episode has made me judge Bunga as just not the honey badger i was hoping for or so, really hope this changes. cause during every single bunga scene I was just like, uuugh


SO Im guessing whatever happened to Fulis family is a mystery until they make a episode on her history. And is she really old enough to fend for herself? , or wouldn't she still need to be trained by her mom on how to hunt, I just so want to know her family story.

and Finally we got to see a little Lion to Lioness hunting action between Nala and the girls, and I have to say just like the way Zuri acted like in ROTR, I assumed right about her attitude towards hunting would be "hunting is overrated" , I knew that would be her reaction, but again these girls are just cubs and they are learning, plus I assume Nala is the leader of the hunting party considering she is teaching the girls instead of there own Parents.

and to top it off the Next episode is finally answering one of our questions, How Bunga ended up with Timon and Pumbaa, do you know what this could mean everyone? this show slowly sees to slowly get better and better, I mean averything else was GREAT in this episode, except for the Bunga parts, Im just fed up with him, cant wait for next Friday. Next week is so exciting with picking up ROTR on Tuesday then wait till Friday, im so excited for next week

but this also mean I have a huge ton of Homework to get done and ahead on

this episode actually had me thinking that Fuli just might be older than the rest of them by a year i think. i believe i read somewhere that Cheetahs leave their cubs after they learn to hunt, capture, and kill their own prey.

otherwise, another great episode, one where Bunga didn't bother me too much.

lets remember, there are people in this world that are like Tifu and Zuri.

I liked the episode mostly. It made me understand why fuli is so... Uh... The way she is. She has to put up with so much... And bunga is an imbecile.

But no mufasa and no superpowered rawr.

Posted the full review on my Tumblr. I loved this episode a lot. I'm going to call it one of my favourites, actually.

One thing that I find interesting is that the gazelle Fuli tried to hunt never spoke. In fact, it made regular animal noises. The show talks a lot about the circle of life, but never really gets into the implications - that the animals the Lion Guard work so hard to save may very well be eaten by them later on. If the gazelle talked, it would have made Fuli's hunting seem crueler than it is and may have made kids view Fuli as a villain.

I'd love for there to be an episode that deals with this dilemma. Maybe a group of herbivores refuse the Lion Guard's help because they resent being eaten. Heh.

Alright, now that I've watched the episode twice, here are my full thoughts:

THE PARTS I LIKED

- THNAK YOU, DISNEY, FOR GIVING FULI AN EPISODE TO DEVELOP. I was genuinely worried that they would put too much focus on Bunga, and while he did have some focus, the episode gave Fuli the character development she deserved. She's definitely my favourite member of the Guard right now: especially considering we're a lot similar personality-wise.

- Bunga wasn't AS annoying here as he was in previous episodes! Hallelujah!

- For the first time in forever [no that is not a Frozen reference >.>] T&P didn't annoy the crap outta me!

- For some reason after hearing that Fuli is "really soft" I kinda want to cuddle her now

- No use of the roar and no Mufasa!

- Tiifu is back to her adorable bubbly personality! Hurray! Zuri is still a gigantic brat though. But either way, seeing Nala leading the girls in that hunt was an amazing thing, especially considering what little development Nala and Kiara's relationship got in TLK2. I'm also hoping for more Kiara and Fuli interactions.

- Janja getting a back scratch was hysterical

- The Guard's interactions were great imo. In the previous episodes I kinda felt like the Guard were more just acquaintances who worked together then real friends, but after watching this episode I've changed my mind about that. Disney handled it very well imo.

- I dunno if whoever is voicing Fuli also sang her song but if she did, I have to give her an applaud because she did a great job. That song in general is amazing and if fits Fuli's character very well.

PARTS I DIDN'T LIKE
Uhhh... okay, if there's ONE thing I didn't like, it was how much of an idiot Bunga was In this episode. He's not as annoying as he was before, but seeing him be like "I'm IMMUNE!! I'm gonna go play in a volcano! Surely THAT won't go wrong!" was so annoying.


Over all, it was an awesome episode. Probably one of my favourites so far. This show is a lot better then I expected it to be!

It was funny seeing bunga in pain.

Yeah, I agree XD

[SimbasGuard]

I loved this episode. Much like may others have already said.

Getting to know Fuli better was awesome, I love her song.

I loved how Fuli reacted to being invited to hunt with The Royal Family. I particularly enjoyed her interactions with Kiara.

Tiifu has a jealous streak regarding Kiara's friendship that I would never have guessed. I also really liked the fact that Kiara had no problem with Fuli Hunting alongside her.

Zuri

Bunga Twice he has only heard Part of what Rafiki has said. This time he would have lost his life at least 3 times if not for Fuli.

The Hug at the end was awesome. What a great way to end the episode.

[Nilla]

I really liked this episode, Fuli was so relatable. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the hug at the end. I mean, it was cute, but the lesson of the episode was that sometimes people like to be left alone and not touched and that's OK. And after a whole episode of Fuli being bothered and intruded upon, when the rest of the guard finally realized what they were doing wrong, The conclusion wasn't to demonstrate the lesson, but to give her a big hug. She did invite it, but I think it would have been more appropriate if at the end she said something along the lines of 'Nope! No hug right now. You guys have been suffocating me ALL day. I love you guys but I'm gonna go hunt, see ya tomorrow!"
I'm nitpicking but everyone else has already said everything I loved about the episode x)
