The Lion Guard is the collection of guardians serving the Pride Lands. For generations they have taken on forces, small and large, all to protect the innocent and preserve the Circle of Life. They are powerful. They are swift. They are fair. The Lion Guard protects, but what is the guard? Where did they come from? And why did they disappear during the events of The Lion King?

Would you like me to discuss Scar’s war in The Lion Guard? Let me know below! Hope you have a magical day everyone!

The reason they aren’t in the lion king 1 or 2 is because the creators didn’t think of kion or any of them. The lion guard wasn’t even created back then. And honestly I don’t think the lion guard is cannon. There’s no way kion existed in the lion king 2 there’s no mention of him ever existing.

The Lion King is my favorite Disney movie of all time

[@nicorozner7417]

One of my favorite parts of TLG was the world-building. TLK was a great film, but it was somewhat constrained by a lack of really expanded lore and history. The Lion Guard does a lot not just to further develop a Lion King franchise, but to build a Lion King universe.

Respect to this man for watching a Disney Jr show and not losing his sanity. (I love The Lion Guard btw)

[@MrAndrewsaccount92]

If Mufasa did have a second born, the Wildebeest stampede wouldnt have killed him. But demoting Scar to 3rd in line for the throne would spark his anger more. This is probably another reason why Mufasa is regarded as one of the Pridelands best kings, he's filling in for both King and Lion Gaurd duties. He stops Hyenas that infiltrate his domain (or just investigates the situation to see if doing so is necisary), and saves Simba whenever he's in peril.

I'll give you a simpler explanation, its not canon

[@Poever]

We know the real origin: money, merchandise, and banking on a familiar IP

[@joshuamerriweather2861]

I love the Black Panther reference

[@meiju1563]

The most reasonable answer for this is that they didn't think about it when they make lion king 2

[@ashleypanzica4924]

I love TLG! Although I'm an adult, I'm a child at heart. At first I thought If I watched the show it'd by baby-ish but now that I know others around my age watch it I feel better. I wish more episodes would come out faster.

[@Brick2buddies]

I think it's truly fascinating when a "kids show" has so much lore, action, and actually great characters that it can be enjoyed just as much by adults

[@tweetybaby1100]

Kion is very smart. It makes sense to have these different animals as part of the lion guard, they fit the roles right down to their adaptations and characteristics.

[@gracekim25]

I too want to know about past lion guards, I just want them to expand on the past

[@midnightthornton7214]

Oh you killed me with the hole Black Panther scene. Nicely played sir nicely played.

[@firefly9661]

The Lion Guard is cool. Please do Tiifu and Zuri’s backstories!

Talk about scars war! I've been watching alot of this with my baby brother lol and I enjoy it.

[@Tom8201]

While it's implied The Lion Guard takes place during the time skip of the Lion King 2, I think that maybe the reason Kion and the rest of the guard wouldn't be there when Kiara is an adult was the guard left to keep Scar away from the Pridelands.

[@gabygarza1315]

I love the lion guard it's super cute the lion king is my all time favorite movie
