- The Devastating Reason Why Kopa Is NOT in The Lion King 2...
The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride is one of my favorite Disney sequels of all time, but much like many other die-hard Lion King fans, I can’t help but feel like something’s missing. Or should I say, someone? You see, before Disney created Kiara, there was another cub that many fans recognized as Simba’s child, and his name was Kopa. But with his absence from the second movie clear, it’s hard not to wonder why he wasn't in The Lion King 2. Be forewarned, the answer might SCAR you, no pun intended.

I think he survived, but ran away from the pridelands. Eventually he comes back after TLK2. He has an older brother Chaka, who was scrapped from TLK2 in an old script. Though Kopa’s brother is more official than him.
When I first learned about Kopa, I liked the character and wanted him to be official in the film franchise, but then I ended up accepting that he is not a recognized character in The Lion King.
One thing that Zira underestimates about Kopa is that Kopa is definitely not one to not get the last laugh, and so, it would make sense that Kopa is alive without Zira’s knowledge with his survival and existence known only to a select few including Mufasa and Rafiki and Simba and Nala. And then thanks to that the Tree of Life has been introduced in The Lion Guard TV Show, we can say that Kopa ends up at the Tree of Life for healing and sanctuary and then at some point when he is fully grown, he goes on a mission with some other members of the Night Pride to find healing flowers for Queen Janna to help her to live longer only for to find out about her passing along with Zira’s demise when he returns to the Tree of Life and finds Queen Janna’s granddaughter Rani on the throne with Kopa and Kiara’s younger brother Kion by her side as her mate and as King of the Tree of Life. This can be the best way where Kopa can fit into Canon while staying true to the storyline of The Lion King, The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride, and The Lion Guard.
Nope. Never heard of him.
So the Lion King 2 is missing both of Simba's sons? That's a little weird 😕
Kion was at the Tree of Life
@ChicagoMel23 Really? That's cool. Still never heard of him. Probably because I was in middle school when the movie came out, so I was too old to have an interest in the books
@@tgirl678it’s a show called the lion guard where you can watch season 3 that connects to the ending of lion king 2 and shows simbas son
I knew kopa a long time ago and it was sad but people are aware that he was alive after being attacked by zira, and his friends who are nuka and Vittany (can’t spell her name) who knew about his death accept for nuka,he believed his friend is alive and kopa was alive but he had to tell nuka that he was leaving the pride lands away from zira because if his parents knew he was alive he felt like he would put his family in more danger. That’s why we don’t see vittany with any other male lions because she still fell in love with kopa when they were cubs. And since zira “killed him” she felt as if her heart was broken and never wanted to find love for herself and that’s why she is the leader of the lion guard.
I always thought about kopa and I now I understand why he wasn’t in the film
Maybe they were going to make kopa the new cub but changed it to Kiara because there’s not even that much girls in the movies
I didn't know of Kopa beforehand, but I like the dark fan theory about what about what happened to him.
So here is my theory atfer scar death simba gave zira and her followers an chance after kopa crew up zira lured him and then she killed kopa wen simba find out he exited her
(Sorry for bad english)
The narrator also forgot to mention another difference of the cubs at the end: look at the *ears*
The first cub was obviously meant to be a boy. The design, the colors, the rectangular body, it was all visual signifiers it's a male cub. The second cub had more almond-shaped eyes, and a round body, making it believable as a baby girl.
To be honest, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of Kopa and I was a huge fan of The Lion King 2, so this is really fascinating, especially given that years later they made the sequel series The Lion Guard and introduced Kion, who also was nowhere to be found in the Lion King 2. I didn’t watch the series, but I do think I remember hearing that they at least gave an explanation for his absence.
They could have still put Kopa in the movie for a little bit
I knew about him, but I didn’t know a lot, and I was curious as to why we never saw him even after I got an answer.
Although considering how many years it’s been, it would be cool if Disney actually went ahead and made maybe movies or short films to tie everything up, they seem to have a habit of doing that a lot when making short stories in between movies from what I am recognizing.
They should’ve made Kopa the lead character of The Lion Guard instead of Kion. You’d think it would make more sense.
While I do agree, the only reason it wouldn’t work is because if you remember why he was the leader of the lion guard, it’s because he was younger than her that they gave him that job, so unless you want to say, maybe that would’ve been his job which I highly doubt before he was killed, that’s the only way it would make sense.
That so cool that Simba and Nala might have a third child together it sad that Zira killed Kopa though.
It's a retcon, Kopa doesn't exist
Disney claims that the end of The Lion King 1 and the beginning of The Lion King 2 are the same scene, but we know they're different.
I agree😉
They should actually totally put a live action version of him In Mufasa The Lion🦁 King!🤓
I wonder if they gave kion the k at the beginning of his name in mamory of his brother
Imagine kion and kopa brothers in that film.
Kopa is survived to Zira's attack in my own head-canon. And he was attacked by Zira when Kiara(and maybe even Kion) was already born. Since he believed that his son was dead, Simba asked to his father and ancestors to erase every memory of their brother to his another 2 cubs and even to Vitani, who falled in love with Kopa, and forbid to say Kopa's name for forgot the mourning. This is why he was so protective with his daughter in the 2nd movie. But Kopa was alive and he left the Pride Lands, arriving in another kingdom and being raised by an heard of Cape Buffaloes, or in a desert in Egypt where he was adopted by a pride of Barbaries lions. Then he return in the Pride Lands for a motivation, and he reunited with his parents, sister, brither-in-law and love interest. And for this fan-film, I would put as main antagonist a wild dog, a Masai lion, a Barbary lion or Zira(since I'not sure that the river killed her).
Having read and now owning the six new adventures books, I always liked Kopa and felt it was such a shame he wasn't in the movies. I do believe the theory of his death explains so much about everything in the second movie.
I think there was just a misunderstanding.
But I would like to promote a third movie.
I think Kopa was actually a girl. And real name: Kiara.
I never knew about kopa
But then instead of kion the we’re going to make kopa but scrapped him and that’s when kion came
Why so repetitive with the back and forth
Kiara and kopa look exactly alike so maybe they turned kopa into Kiara
I love Kopa🦁
Until this video id never heard of the books and until the show came out id never heard of Kopa BUT in another theory is that Kopa might not have been born yet when Kiara was an adult too… so that might be why he wasn’t mentioned in the tlk2 either
Kopa is a non-canon character
They changed name to Kion though
that’s a whole different son
I thought Kion Kopa and Kiara ??
Can you please credit the fan art made of the characters, because you’ve a nasty habit of stealing my art too.
I think Kopa survived and came back as an adult lion and he and Vitani moved away from the Pridelands to create their own pride.
Kopa is not Canon to Lion King Moves
Well kopa is canon because why do you think simba is so over protective of kiara and banished zira
No he isn’t,the reason is that the same happened when he was a cub and he didn’t want the same for Kiara,simple
Because there was no Lion Guard and Kion was Injured
i really wanted kopa mentioned and @masteroflaughter870 makes a logical explanatoin
