Kion/Relationships

Simba
Kion loves his father immensely and will do anything in his power to make his father happy. However, Kion is not afraid to stand up for what he thinks is right, even if it means going against his father's wishes. During this time, Kion's feelings turn to both anger and sadness, as seen in "The Lion Guard: Return of the Roar" when Simba chastises his son after he believes him to not be taking his new role as a leader seriously. Kion has shown to worry for his father, especially when put in any sort of danger, regardless of severity. He will drop all current duties in order to ensure his father's safety seen in "Bunga and the King "and "The Scorpion's Sting".

Nala
Unlike Simba, Nala immediately accepted that it was time for Kion to lead the Lion Guard, and showed immense pride in him when he and the Lion Guard defeated Janja and his clan and saved Kiara.

Kion loves her deeply, and becomes concerned about her whenever she's in danger, as seen in “Never Roar Again".

Kiara
Unlike their great-uncle, Kion does not appear to have any resentment towards Kiara’s position as the future ruler of the Pride Lands.

Although the two squabble occasionally and don't always see eye to eye, they have a good relationship, and Kion will always come to Kiara’s aid when she needs him. During "Trail to Udugu", he has a tendency to compete with her and yet when it comes to looking for their mother Kion works together with Kiara to find her. He does admitted that Kiara has the best skills when it comes to tracking.

Having understood the purpose of Udugu his bond with Kiara has gotten stronger and just as he comes to her aid he has her help too.

Mufasa
Kion looks to his wise grandfather for advice on many different situations whenever he needs it. Kion always feels better once he receives some and uses it in any current problem.

He has heard a lot about Mufasa, who promises to always be there for his grandson, proving that he loves him dearly.

When Kion tells Mufasa that Scar returning was all his fault, Mufasa comforts him, stating that the Roar of the Elders is very powerful.

Scar
Having heard about Scar's past through his father, Kion always feared that he would become just like Scar, even going so far as to stop using the Roar entirely when he worried about misusing it.

After meeting Scar, Kion's opinion has barely changed and, if anything, became worse. He despises his great-uncle for his crimes against the Pride Landers, and for trying to kill his father with scorpion poison and has vowed to defeat him.

Fuli
When Kion first invited Fuli to join the Lion Guard, she was less than impressed at the insinuation that lions were the fiercest, doubting him as a leader. After receiving her Mark of the Guard and hearing Kion's Roar of the Elders, Fuli has softened around Kion (for the most part).

Kion was noticeably upset when he accidentally caused severe annoyance to Fuli during "Fuli's New Family", and was hesitant to engage in a friendly hug with the rest of the Guard later during the day. When Fuli called him over, he was relieved to be forgiven for his previous mishap. He showed great concern for her when she overextends herself in "The Search for Utamu."

Fuli often turns to Kion for his opinion on a matter and trusts his judgment. Likewise, Kion acknowledges Fuli's strengths as a fighter and friend.

Bunga
Bunga has been Kion's best friend since they were younger and the two always like to play Baobab Ball together. Bunga was there when Kion first found his roar after facing two hyenas in the Outlands and is also the bravest in the guard and is always ready to take on challenges and also be there for Kion and others.

Beshte
Beshte is the strongest in the guard and has known Kion for a long time since he knows every Pride Lander.

Beshte is always willing to help others showing he is very caring and always does what Kion’s commands him to do and worries for his friend and others' safety.

Kion is also aware of Beshte's reliability seen in "The Imaginary Okapi" as he understood that Beshte wouldn't make things up, and defended him when Ono and Bunga criticized him.

Ono
Ono is the keenest of sight in the guard. Whenever there's a problem, Ono always spots it. He always listens to Kion and he seems to be on top of everything, even when Janja and his clan are attacking. He is also one of Kion's best friends and never lets him or the guard down.

Rafiki
Rafiki is the royal mjuzi of the Pride Lands, who is very wise and a friend to Kion and his family.

When first hearing Kion roar, Rafiki is certain it is time for him to follow his destiny and helps Simba explain to his son about the guard. He also is very caring and worries when others are in danger as seen when he realizes that Kion could be with the Outsiders and is always helping the sick and injured as seen when he heals Ono and Simba who are both very close to Kion.

Makini
Makini is a Royal Mjuzi in training and like Rafiki, she is a friend to Kion and his family.

Upon first meeting, Kion was surprised by her when spoke of the cub's ability to speak to his grandfather. The two get along well and he has confidence in her as the future Royal Mjuzi. Kion is happy to accept her as a travel companion on certain missions and appreciates her help in any given situation. Kion also trusts her enough to help out when he is unable to, as seen when he was paralyzed in "The Bite of Kenge". Kion is also quick to defend her when others seem overly harsh towards her.

Makuu
Makuu and Kion first started out as enemies, with Makuu taking an immediate dislike to the cub as an infant when he and Bunga entered his float's watering hole without being invited. As Kion grew, the two remained enemies at first, with Makuu's belief that crocodiles were above the Circle of Life clashing severely with Kion's obedience towards the concept.

But during the Dry Season, Makuu as reformed and grew wiser as Pua had said he would. Although Kion was at first hesitant to believe him, he started to see a different side to Makuu. After Kion saves him from falling into a pit trap, Makuu develops a change of heart to the cub. The two are now good friends, and Makuu now trusts Kion's judgment.

Jasiri
Kion thought that all hyenas were bad until he met Jasiri, who proved him wrong by escorting him back to the Pride Lands after he got lost in the Outlands. They have been great friends ever since.

Kion trusts and cares about Jasiri and will step into battle to protect her which can be seen when rescuing her, Wema and Tunu from Janja's Clan during "Rescue in the Outlands" and 'The Hyena Resistance'.

Madoa
At first in "Lions of the Outlands" Madoa thought that Jasiri was kidding when she said that she was friends with a lion. After getting back their Watering Hole from the Outsiders she befriends him. In "Rescue in the Outlands", when she sees Jasiri and the cubs in danger Madoa comes seeking his help in rescuing her.

Wema and Tunu
Kion seems to have a good relationship with the two little cubs. At first, the cubs were scared of him due to their water supply being stolen by other lions, but after being saved by him and The Lion Guard, the two hyena cubs became friends with Kion, thanking him and the rest of the Guard for saving them.

Boboka's Son
Kion appears to be on good terms with Boboka's Son after saving him in the Hippo Lanes.

Zazu
Kion and Bunga ran away from Zazu a bunch of times when they were kids. Such as one day when the kids ran away from him when he told Fuli to slow down. They ran into Pua's Float and Pua and Makuu were about to eat them until Zazu came in and hopped inside Makuu's mouth. Saying that he will be eaten instead of Kion, showing his bravery and that he truly cares for Kion and his safety. Pua lets the three of them go and Kion says that he will never forget about that day according to him. When Zazu got captured by the hyenas, Kion and the Guard came to save him, showing how much he cares for the hornbill.

Muhimu
In the beginning, Muhimu had little faith in Kion, as seen during the migration.

But when the young leader starts to show his best efforts, Muhimu softens and begins to understand Kion. Even offering him her support when the other animals lose their own faith in the cub after she accidentally blocks off the path to Mbali Fields by causing a minor stampede in excitement.

Since then, the two remain on good terms, with Muhimu now knowing she can always have faith in the cub.

Male Turtle
When he is flipped upside down due to the rainstorm that recently hit the Pride Lands, He cries for help and after hearing it, Kion remembers his and the guards duty to flip turtles and flips them upside down Male Turtle back up and after doing so, thanks to the cub for his help.

Timon
He seems to be close friends with Timon because not only is he raising his best friend, Bunga, but he also raised his father Simba when he was a cub. Timon later helps him prepare for the Ukumbusho and in return, Kion along with the rest of the Lion Guard perform The Twelve Ways of Christmas to cheer him and Pumbaa up on Christmas Day.

Pumbaa
He seems to be close friends with Pumbaa because not only is he raising his best friend, Bunga, but he also raised his father Simba when he was a cub. Pumbaa later helps him prepare for the Ukumbusho and in return, Kion along with the rest of the Lion Guard perform The Twelve Ways of Christmas to cheer him and Timon up on Christmas Day.

Thurston
Kion has saved Thurston's life on a number of occasions from many things such as hyenas, wildfires, and floods. Thurston at one time came with him, the rest of the Lion Guard, and Madoa to the Outlands to save Jasiri, Tunu and Wema from Janja's Clan. The zebra helped by distracting Cheezi and Chungu with his stupidity while the Guard deal with the rest of Janja's Clan.

Ma Tembo
Kion has helped Ma Tembo and her herd on a number of occasions and has saved her from crocodiles, jackals, wildfires, and hyenas. They worked together on the Ukumbusho. She also sticks up for the cub when Zito or any other Pride Lander is being too harsh on him, proving she is a close friend to him.

They connect to each other very well, particularly as they are both new leaders.

Kulinda
Kulinda appears to be on good terms with Kion.

Kinyonga
Kinyonga and Kion are shown to be friends. Although Kion worries about the safety of Kinyonga, she is only happy to assist him and becomes concerned when she "breaks" her promise of not scaring other animals by mistake. She praises Kion and the Lion Guard for learning the art of camouflage.

Nyuni
Nyuni appears to be on good terms with Kion, though he is not afraid to speak out against him.

Bupu
Kion has saved and helped Bupu on certain occasions. Although Kion still sees him as somewhat stubborn, he knows that a well-timed 'please' can persuade the sable antelope into doing what he asks.

Boboka
She and Kion appear to be on good terms seeing as how she was able to Bupu to listen to Kion in order to get to higher ground. No sooner when she and her son get lost when they went through the unfinished Hippo Lanes Kion takes action along with Ono to locate the pair. Kion soon hears her cries for help in the near distance and promptly rushes into the water to save her. Kion soon manages to save Boboka and leads her back to her son.

Tamaa
When the pair first met, Kion was less than impressed at Tamaa for using his skill to steal food from other animals and made him promise to cease that behavior. Although the drongo went back on his word briefly, Kion appreciated his help when he returned to assist the Guard, trusted the drongo from then on.

In "Divide and Conquer", Kion turned to Tamaa when he needed help. Tamaa feared he might be getting the wrong idea due to the large amount of donated food at his feet, but Kion already trusted Tamaa and knew that he wasn't going back on his word. When Tamaa is caught out by the jackals, Kion assures him that it wasn't his fault, and cares more about making sure that Tamaa is in a safe space for the rest of the battle.

Zito
In “The Kilio Valley Fire", Zito did get a little annoyed at Kion because of his home being destroyed by the fire. Kion tried to find the elephants a new home but none of the places seemed to be working, which annoyed Zito more. When Ndefu Grove was lit on fire, at first Zito didn't want to help, but when he learned that family is important, he comes to Kion's rescue and saves him from being crushed by a tree.

Dhahabu
When Kion greets himself to her and says that he's the "leader of the Lion Guard" Dhahabu starts to laugh and she didn't even know that Kion was a Lion. Kion explains the water problem in the Pridelands and asks to share Dhahabu's Watering Hole. Dhahabu did let them share it at first until when they came back with a Tamboa Plant she changed her mind. Dhahabu did let the guard help her with the watering hole and got rid of Makucha's Leap. After all of that Dhahabu agrees to share the watering hole with the Pridelanders. Kion thought that she was a great leader. In "The Queen's Visit" the guard saves Queen Dhahabu from fire which is caused by "dry lighting." When Dhahabu wanted Fuli to be her guard Kion didn't like that idea since she was a member of the Lion Guard. However he went with the idea since they were sharing her Watering Hole.

Raha and Starehe is excited to meet Kion the rest of the Lion Guard, and shows no fear towards them despite them being outsiders to Raha.

After seeing Janja order his clan to kill animals in the Pride Lands for the sake of causing chaos, Kion has resented the hyena for his actions ever since.

Only to try but fail to reason with Zira, who tries to manipulate Kion and traps him. In doing so, she reveals her true evil intentions and even manipulates him into believing he can't use his roar against them. She also went as far as trying to kill Kion if he refused to join her pride showing she is very violent.

He despises Kion for attacking him, and for not siding with his pride and shows great happiness when he thinks Kion is powerless for not being able to use his roar, running up to avenge himself only to be attacked by him again, showing that no matter what, he will always fight his enemies.

Nuka is cowardly, as seen when he admits he is scared when they were losing the fight and when he refuses to "play nice" with Jasiri and does not want to give back her watering hole showing his evil side which is the complete opposite of Kion.

Vitani
Unlike the rest of her pride, Vitani first met Kion and Jasiri she feeling curious about Lion and Hyena. After Kion has been attack by Lionesses the Lion Guard came to the rescue and Kion use his Roar of the Elders he sent her into her new home.

After Kion "saved" Dogo from Janja's Clan, the young jackal feigned friendship with the lion to allow him and his family access into the Pride Lands. After gaining Kion's trust, the rest of Dogo's family moved in to the Pride Lands which put a strain on his 'friendship' with Kion, especially when it became apparent that Dogo liked to exaggerate his own words.

She soon sees Hares almost being trapped in a mudslide. Mpishi tries to get one thinking no one will see it missing until the guard shows up again. Later she goes after Kulinda's baby Ona but the guard stops her a third time.
