Description
"This world ain't big enough for the two of us..."There are so many sites/complaints that bitch on Simba being a copy of Kimba. If you must get angry, be angry with Disney for not giving Osamu Tezuka any credit. But why hate on TLK itself? Ripoff or not, it's a kick ass movie! I guess this piece reflects the fans that are for Kimba vs. the fans that are for The Lion King. Keep in mind, this is strictly a joke. I'm a big fan of TLK, but I do still want to see some of Kimba, The White Lion. (or Leo, the Lion) Even when that happens, I'm not turning my back on Simba. Later, I will make a picture of the two lions getting along just fine, the way that I wish Kimba and Simba fans would. I'm not here to bash one and claim the other as the 'victor/original'. I'm here to celebrate the existence of both movies/shows/characters.
BTW, Simba is Swahili for 'lion', not a ripoff of the name 'Kimba'.

the lion king is based loosely on Shakespears story Hamlet.
i don't see how thats a rip off of Kimba, the White Lion...
i've seen both Kimba and Leo the Lion and Jungle Emperor Leo, and they really aren't the same.
In the Leo the Lion series...the lions don't even hunt and eat meat like actual lions do. lol
i do like both alot...but the story lines are totally different

Kimba would win. He has much better fighting experience, plus, is the REAL Lion King X3

The whole "TLK copied Kimba!" thing is annoying. Especially when they use the main character's names as an excuse. Yes, Kimba and Simba are very similar names but "Simba" mean lion in Swahili.
But anyway, this is a nice picture. You did a great job on it! ^^

Well, I'm referring to things in the movie, not the anime series. There are a few websites that post those similarities.

Lol. Very nice.
Ive heard though that since Osamu was a fan of Disney he didn't mind or something ( I know Disney actually trained his animation crew for Kimba. ) [link]

I saw the commercial for Kimba at some point having already seen the lion king of course and it struck my dumb how pathetically similar they looked. I dunno who copied who but someone's lazy >.> lol

I've only seen Kimba once or twice in my life and it just seemed that the little lion cub was always saving animals or fighting other animals or something. I only noticed that Disney kind of stole the Imba from Kimba and made it into Simba. That's the only comparison I noticed.

There are certain photos that I keep seeing online that show comparisons of the two lions/movies that some call questionable. (google 'kimba simba'
