Given she's going to appear in 7-9 episodes as The Lion Guard Kion said already, Rani is probably going to be a part of the season-long arc connected to the Tree of Life after the Scar Arc. If she is to be a potential love interest/mate for Kion to fall in love with, then her character will have to be given a good bit of attention to put her up to parr with the other, far more reoccuring females in the show like Fuli and Jasiri.

I could see her being a similar character to Suki from the Avatar the Last Airbender - a love interest and reoccuring character that became more important as time went on. Having Rani and Kion start off as rivals or not being particularly keen of one another (much like Sokka and Suki) would be an interesting start to allow their relationship (and possible romance) develop to help support her as a character.

She could have blocks of appearances spaced out, like appearing in an episode or two together to introduce her character, appearing in  a few more spaced out to add development and growth before blocking the remaining together near the end of the season to finish it.

I just hope they give her time to develop and don't cram her into the show to force a lioness love-interest onto Kion. Can't wait to see her!
