>In Africa during the mid-20th century, as mankind encroaches, the white lion Panja (Caesar in the English dub) gives the jungle's wild animals a safe haven. However, he angers nearby villagers by stealing their cattle and their food to feed the jungle carnivores. (In the English dub he merely frees the cattle.)
>A professional hunter, Ham Egg (Viper Snakely in the English dub), is called in to stop these raids. He avoids directly attacking Panja. Instead, he records the sounds of Panja and uses them to trap his mate, Eliza, who then becomes bait in a trap for Panja.
>Panja is killed for his hide, and the pregnant Eliza is put on a ship, destined for a zoo. Leo (Kimba in the English dub) is born on the boat. Eliza teaches him his father's ideals.
>As a huge tropical storm nears, she urges her cub out through the bars of her cage. The storm wrecks the boat, and he flounders in the ocean. The fish help him learn to swim. As he begins to despair, the stars in the sky form the face of his mother, who encourages him. Guided by butterflies, he makes it to land.
> Leo lands far from his ancestral home and is found and cared for by some people. He learns the advantages of human culture, and decides that when he returns to his wild home he will bring culture to the jungle and stand for peace like his father.
>The show follows Leo's life after he returns to the wild, still a young cub, and how he learns and grows in the next year. Leo soon learns that only communication and mutual understanding between animals and humans will bring true peace.
Yeah, that sounds literally like the plot of Lion King.

off topic, anyone read the Hunger Games books?
is it the same shit or are movies THAT pussyfied?

I read the books. Books are a little more interesting. 1 > 2 > 3.
I thought the first movie was meh and the second want interesting and I didn't even bother watching the last two.
Anime was born when japs ripped off disney after WWII. Anime is literally taken from Disney. All of it. Not to mention how much of the classics /a/ loves is inspired by western culture.
If Tezuka would've lived to see DISNEY rip off his work, which was largely ripping off animation shot for shot from Bambi and other classical Disney, he would've loved it.

The books are still for young adults, but they are a bit more brutal
Aladdin and the Thief and the Cobbler.
Thief and the Cobbler had better animation, just typical Di$ney stealing material.

If you want to see the best version of this story watch Hamlet not some children's pleb cartoon.

These don't really surprise you, though, do they? I mean western studios have copied Asian movies for years via horror movies. And those cases are no mystery to people. No one ever looks up the original.
