Description
EDIT 3: Added Teen Kion
EDIT 2: I've revamped the entire chart. I also added a "pre-teen" section to be the grey area between a young cub and an older "teen" since I've been getting so many comments on it.
For example, Kovu's a bit older in LG since he and Kiara met as "younger cubs", and his voice has changed from his cub voice to his more adult voice. This happens to Simba when in the jungle with Timon and Pumbaa too, at the same stage I've listed them as. His brother Nuka, however, is always one step ahead of what Kovu and Vitani are, and we all know how stinted his mane growth is anyways..so he was a bit tricky to place but I think I got it.
A lot of this mostly has to do with their size...with how tall they are at what stages, when it came to where I put LG characters. Kiara is taller next to Simba in LG than in SP. Same for Kion. I don't think a young cub would be given responsibly of Protecting the Pridelands. It would make more sense if he was at least a Pre-Teen.
And I didn't add Zira because visually in LG they kept her the same as SP, minus the head stripe they didn't add for whatever reason...
Hope this makes people more happy now. :3
EDIT:
I've made some changes such as the BG so it's easier to read the character's names. Also, I found scans of a younger Mufasa and Sarabi from a book called "Friends in Need" so I've added her and changed the pic of younger Mufasa. While there was a younger Zazu as well, I'm keeping this strickly Lions, cuz they're my favorite
I've always wanted to see a chart of how the TLK characters aged progressively though the movies. So I got bored and made this.
There was actually more thinking involved that I'd expected when it came to characters like Simba and Nuka. Also, I added Mufasa and Scar/Taka's younger selves from the book A Tale of Two Brothers. I thought about adding "beanie Nuka" to the mix, but with it just being so off model, I said forget it.
Questions, concerns, did I miss someone? I only did characters that had more than one character design. I thought about adding characters like Zira and Sarabi, but they don't change throughout the movies, so that's why they're not added.
And please, don't use this without permission. But enjoy!

you dont have her as a teen.

Capricornfox In reply to starchild334 [2012-12-13 04:53:36 +0000 UTC]
because we dont see her again until she meets up with simba in the jungle, and by that age on my chart here I've got them as Adults. Simbas mane is shorter as a young adult compared to when it's fuller when Nala shows up

the picture of nala as a young adult is when she first finds simba
and the one you have of him as a teen is when they're talking about him going back.
soo that would imply she is older than him.

Capricornfox In reply to starchild334 [2012-12-16 05:47:46 +0000 UTC]
well see I put her under the Adult tab there to show they are both adults when they meet but we see Simba grow up in the jungle with T&P. The image of Simba I have under Young Adult isn't when he's swinging from the vines talking with Nala, its from TLK 1.5 when he's in a small pool of water with T&P and Pumbaa gets out and the bubbles stop. That image under Young Adult he hasn't met up with Nala yet and his mane isn't full grown. We don't see Nala during that time so thats why theres no image of her.

I think you should move the "teen" image of mufasa to the "young adult" phase, as I believe the books feature an even younger version of him than the one you have shown
π: 0 β©: 1
Capricornfox In reply to starlit-kaulitz [2011-11-26 01:32:17 +0000 UTC]
yeah I see your point, but I didn't put him there because his and Scars manes still have quite a bit of growing to do, where as young adult Simba and Kovu show much more of a mane at that stage.

Well I'll be. I always thought the nose fade thing on Scar was a model inconsistency, but darned if it's not consistent, changing immediately after Hakuna Matata and holding constant until the end.
Here's a bonus... if the nose fade indicates age, Mufasa and Scar can't be from the same litter. Notice how Mufasa has a light fade throughout. Simba as an adult has a dark fade. That would seem to indicate that the Disney artists did indeed plan for the lighter fade to indicate age and that there must be enough difference in Scar and Mufasa's ages for Mufasa to be going grey before Scar Interesting to think about, no?

chelseakenna In reply to Uzuri [2017-07-30 22:21:31 +0000 UTC]
I never even noticed Scar's nose change until a few months ago. I started watching TLK on a weekly basis because I got my daughter hooked and when I realized his nose gets lighter when he's older I was so impressed by that subtle detail!

fernpaw In reply to Uzuri [2011-06-21 03:12:50 +0000 UTC]
Thats why Mufasa always calls scar, younger brother. And also why Mufasa was king, because he is older, Scar/Taka always called Mufasa, 'older brother' and things like that, indicating they are from different litters.

damoninsidious In reply to fernpaw [2012-01-02 02:46:55 +0000 UTC]
mufasa calls scar brother and scar calls mufasa big brother

Capricornfox In reply to Uzuri [2010-10-08 01:39:09 +0000 UTC]
mmm, i dono, i think that has to do with character design again. and if you go by the books, theyre pretty much at the same age regarding their mane growth. but interesting theory
