I'm disappointed that we only saw their backs, and their front views were always blurred out. One of them looked so much like Sarabi, and I was hoping we'd be able to see her. Also, Mtoto's Mum (really though? A random elephant gets a new name but not one who is fairly central to the storyline? Okay directors and writers).

I liked the song, even if it was too short (still Ono won't sing alone? I think the people who said he won't sing are right).

The only thing I would have changed is the reason for the celebration. We've seen a lot of the elephants in season 2, I think a remembrance day for the Lion Guards that have passed would have made a lot more sense, especially seeing as the original movie was always speaking of the Kings of the Past. What about the Guards of the Past?

Overall, a good episode, but not a favourite.

Unless we get an explanation I stand by this being an Alternate Universe Same reason we never saw Zira or any of the other Outsiders in the first TLK - They hadn't been invented yet. But hey, like has already been said - whatever floats your boat (no sarcasm, just in case it feels like that). Yeah, it’s not like it matters a ton.

I will agree that I feel the elephants are getting a little too much attention. As much as I love elephants.

I remember a reviewer call Joshscorcher saying that MLP had too many underdeveloped side characters, and I feel the Lion Guard falls in the same circle: Tama, Adjabu, the aardwolves, Hadithi, Badili, the gorillas, Kifaru and Mwenzi, the list goes on.
