Might Nuka Have Turned out to be Good?

[SnowyCheetah]

I was just thinking, Nuka spent his entire life trying to fulfill his mother's wishes. This, of course, meant that he was contributing to very evil plans. Obviously if Zira had been good, Nuka would have as well. But if Nuka had been alive and present when Kiara knocked it into everyone's heads that Zira's notions were bullcrap, might he have changed to the good side as well?

Personally, I think he just might have turned neutral for a moment, long enough to see that his sister was joining Simba's Pride, and perhaps joined as well. I think it's kind of a long-shot though... so I'm voting "other."

[LadyAnette]

no, but nuka rocks anyways!

[Kianga]

He wanted to please his mother so much, it's rather iffy if he would've turned against her or not.

[KopsTheTerminator]

No.. I think he would have drowned with her, trying to save her. Poor Nuka.

[LionKing4EVR96]

I picked other. Like Kopa23 said, he might drown to save her, or my personal belief, he'd stay frozen, not knowing what to do, he'd try to go after his mother, then he'd come back. He'd either join his family, or run off and plan revenge. Maybe since his mom died, he wouldn't care about her wishes anymore.

No I don't think Nuka would have turned out to be good because he loved his mother since she was all
he thought he had he probably would have died trying to save her had he not been crushed. I also think he loved
her so much he would follow her to the end.

Am I the only one who thinks Nuka might have turned good? If the entire pride could be transformed by Kiara's speech, including Vitani, Zira's most loyal follower, why not him? Nuka was never evil to begin with; he just did whatever was necessary to try and get his mother's attention. If he had been alive during the "speech" he might have finally realized that Zira was wrong and that he shouldn't spend his life being a slave to her, and joined the Pridelanders. After all, no one was expecting Vitani to switch sides so suddenly, but she did. Nuka might have followed her example and done the same. I believe Zira was the only evil lioness, since she chose to die rather than be saved by the very lioness she was trying to kill. Nuka didn't have that choice; he never actually planned to die carrying out his mother's evil plans.

I picked yes because all his life, he was just trying to impress his own mother. Even though he was jealous of Kovu being "The Chosen One", he could've changed if he was alive during Kiara's speech about the Outsiders and realizing that they aren't that much of a difference to the Pridelanders. So, why wouldn't he have changed? He could have also realize Zira's evil plans and just switch sides with his sister.

But he loved his mother, so he might even persuade her to change her mind!

Nuka wasn't really "evil" per-se. He was desperate for attention. That was all, if he was given more attention he might have improved.
