There’s been a lot of complaints about the release of the new CG animated Lion King Prequel. And while I share the same complaints of many, I have seen that many many others have gotten confused between what’s fan lore and what’s canon to the original 94 film.
Ahadi, Uru, and Taka are names from the chapter book series the fandom affectionately calls TLK6NA(It’s full name: The Lion King Six New Adventures). TLK6NA was published with permission and was a collaboration between authors. Mohatu is a name from a picture book Titled The Brightest Star, published in autumn of 94. Unfortunately, I do not have any confirmation whether Brightest Star was published with permission or was made by Disney studios. But it is considered far more canon than 6NA on account of lack of conflict between the films.
None of these names or characters have interacted canonically. What you might think is canon might actually be fan lore, established by popular big name fan artists and their fan comics.
I’m also seeing people are still believing the controversial theory that Disney stole the story of a lion being king and would kindly like to point y’all to the YourMovieSucks breakdown video. It’s a great analysis that finally puts this argument to bed
That fucking name is already spreading throughout the fandom like a virus. They could’ve chosen a better birth name for Scar than Taka. But noooooo.

Seriously, stop using other’s fanart. It’s not fair use. It borderlines harassment. HydraCarina and those you took from, don’t want their work edited or traced, or recolored. If you absolutely must edit, use screenshots from the lion guard wiki and animationscreencaps.com
I hate you shipping discourse I hate you unnecessarily aggressive DNI banners I hate you dehumanization of those you disagree with I hate you harassment over ships or favorite characters I hate you purposeful lack of nuance I hate you false equivalencies I hate you policing how people engage in fandom I hate you actively trying to make fandom spaces hostile I hate you refusal to filter your feed I hate you making it everyone else’s problem

god the day people realize that what you like in fiction does not mean fucking anything about what you like in real life is the day I will know peace.

Friendly reminder that Vatre has resurfaced. If you don’t know or remember who they are, here’s a full document about the situation

Vatre basically likes to use her age as a shield in order to get away with bullying content creators in the fandom. She has resurfaced as vexxon-n on deviantART and started harassing members once more, claiming plagiarism against well established artists before deactivating. They’ve resurfaced under a new suspect account, nok0olin. This person is a serial harasser and abuser. If they try to contact you or claim you stole from them, block and report.
just and example here but… do antis think shooting games cause violence??
because that’s fictional too
and if they don’t, what makes it any different from us enjoying dark fiction?
“but that’s pedophilia/incest/etc!!! it’s illegal!!”
so is murder
you quite literally run around shooting people in those games
what the fuck is the difference here i need to know???
Sex. The difference is the sex. The difference is that it’s sexual, and sexual content and sexuality and enjoying sexual content are all subject to ridiculous puritan rules that nothing fucking else is.
It’s because antis get freaked out by deviant sexuality… Fuck, ANY sexuality that doesn’t fit whatever the fucking uwu mold is this month.
There’s a double standard when it comes to sex and violence in American culture, and most Antis are either American or picking up those Puritanical values via osmosis.

Looks like Twitter brainrot.
Ya know, the usual, “I was told no, I can’t have the cookie, so now I’m throwing a hissy fit!”
For the record, I’ve tried telling him where he can get screenshots that he can edit. But he’d rather block then take advice (yes this is the same guy).
