 '''The Lion King II: Simba's Pride''' (later retitled '''The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride''') is an American direct-to-video film released by the Walt Disney Company on October 27, 1998, as a sequel to the 1994 film [[The Lion King]]. It was later re-released as a special edition DVD (which altered the original title's "II" into "2") on August 31, 2004.
-The film centers around [[Simba]]'s daughter, [[Kiara]], who falls in love with [[Kovu]], a male lion who was raised in a pride of [[Scar]]'s followers, who are [[Simba]]'s enemies. Desperate to be together, they must overcome the two obstacles that are keeping them apart: Kovu's mother, [[Zira|Zira]], and Simba.

 This film was not rated until the two-disc Special Edition was released. It was then given a G rating by the MPAA.

-The film starts with the presentation of [[Simba]] and [[Nala]] 's new cub [[Kiara]]. When [[Kiara]] is older and is allowed to explore the [[Pridelands]], [[Simba]] send [[Timon]] and [[Pumbaa]], his meerkat and warthog companions to look after her, but she runs from her suffocating babysitters and sneaks across the borders of her father's kingdom to the '[[Outlands]]', where she encounters an "[[Outsider]]" cub named [[Kovu]]. The two soon get into trouble when they find themselves in a river surrounded by crocodiles. Luckily, [[Kovu]] "bravely" distracts them long enough for the two to escape. The cubs become friends, and [[Kiara]] attempts to initiate a game of tag, only to find [[Kovu]] has no idea how to play. In a bid to relax him, she playfully growls, but when [[Kovu]] retaliates, out of nowhere [[Simba]] appears. [[Kovu]]'s mother [[Zira]] , who had been watching from the grass, also emerges.

-[[Zira]] is about to attack as [[Nala]], [[Pumbaa]], and [[Timon]] appear behind [[Simba]], and instead reveals that the [[Outsiders]] were exiled by [[Simba]] and at least she herself appears to remain loyal to [[Scar]], and that [[Kovu]] was [[Scar]]'s heir to the throne – and therefore a threat to [[Simba]]. However, [[Simba]] is unwilling to hurt a cub and orders the duo to leave, much to [[Kiara]] and [[Kovu]]'s dismay.

-Meanwhile in the [[Outlands]], [[Zira]]'s adult son [[Nuka]] complains to his younger sister [[Vitani]] about [[Kovu]] being "The Chosen One", when as the eldest the honor should be his. At that moment, [[Zira]] returns and scolds her two sons. She mocks [[Kovu]]'s claim that he and [[Kiara]] are friends. She then realizes that, by using [[Kiara]], [[Kovu]] can get close enough to [[Simba]] to murder him and take the throne. Thus, he can avenge [[Scar]]'s death. Alone in his tree, [[Rafiki]] communicates with [[Mufasa]]'s spirit, and voices his fear of [[Zira]] and mistrust of [[Kovu]], brought up with hate in his heart. [[Mufasa]] however, has his own plan – [[Kovu]] and [[Kiara]] will be together, and unite the two prides.

-Time passes and [[Kovu]] grows into an adult. He is molded by [[Zira]] into the perfect assassin, with only one goal in mind: kill [[Simba]]. [[Kiara]] has also grown, and, keen to go on her first solo hunt, makes [[Simba]] promise he will let her do it alone.

-Meanwhile, the [[Outlanders]] march on the [[Pride Lands]]. [[Simba]] leads his lionesses to meet them, and the two clans fight. The [[Outlanders]] gain the upper hand, and [[Zira]] steps in to finish [[Simba]] off herself. However, before the two can strike, [[Kovu]] and [[Kiara]] leap in between them. [[Kiara]] pleads with her father to stop the feud and tells him that a wise king once told her 'we are one', and that there is no 'they' or 'us', but 'they are us'. [[Zira]] orders [[Vitani]] to attack, but she refuses, to which [[Zira]] furiously replies that she will die along with the [[Pridelanders]]. In disgust, the other [[Outsiders]] change sides. While [[Simba]] is momentarily distracted by the sound of the river dam cracking, [[Zira]] tries to attack, but [[Kiara]] interferes, sending them both over the cliff. [[Kiara]] lands on a jutting rock but [[Zira]] continues to slide down towards the raging river. [[Kiara]] extends her paw to try and pull [[Zira]] up, but the bitter lioness, like [[Scar]], is unable to let go of her hate, and falls to her death. [[Simba]] announces he was wrong about [[Kovu]] and invites the [[Outsiders]] back home. All the animals in the kingdom gather as [[Simba]], [[Nala]], [[Kovu]] and [[Kiara]] roar proudly on top of [[Pride Rock]].
