I can briefly describe my thoughts.

Firstly, I really hate the idea of making Vitani's lion guard. Why would Simba allow Vitani to form her own guard knowing that Kion and his real Lion Guard could have returned home at any time? After defeating Scar and Zira's death there's no real threat to the Pride Lands anymore so there's also no point of assembling another lion guard. The more I despise the fact that Kion gave away his leadership without even accepting Vitani's challenge. I just can't comprehend that. After all these years of service, at the point when he barely managed to grow up, suddenly and with no logical reason he decided to resign from his position, which means he basically dissolved the whole team and so lost his Roar and the Mark of the Guard.

The competition between the Lion Guard and Vitani's counterfeit guard was just ridiculous and unfair. Beshte getting sunburned during a normal day in the Pride Lands and jumping in the mud in the middle of a race - how could Beshte do something so stupid?! Anga's trial for the keenest of sight wasn't fair either since everyone knew that she can't see well in the dark.

And finally, the decision to return to the Tree of Life was pure nonsense! The only reason for that was just the unlikely relationship between Kion and Rani. I know you would tell me that Kion might actually fell for her, but I have my doubts if it could happen in this relatively short period of time. The more doubtful may appear Rani's true feelings for Kion. I have serious reasons to claim that she doesn't really love him. And that's because whenever Rani talks about Kion and his possible return to the Tree of Life, she always refers to his Roar. In fact, she never says anything about her feelings for him, she only emphasizes her need to have the Roar back at the Tree of Life. Examples: when Kion and the Guard leave the Tree of Life, Rani says to Makini "Maybe the Roar will return again, someday." And when Kion's becoming the king, she says "I'm glad the Roar has returned to the Tree of Life again." Honestly, I can't see her romantic interest in him anywhere, she always talks about his roar, never about Kion himself!

These are my thoughts about the last episode. A huge disappointment. I'm really sad and shocked they decided to end this show in such way. IKR VITANI'S GUARD IS STUPID AND UNFAIR! RANI LOOKS ENOUGH LIKE KOVU'S SISTER! IF THE SEASON ENDED WITH FULI X KION OR HECK EVEN KION X JASIRI IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER! GIVE US SOMETHING CREATIVE FOR ONCE, DISNEY! I'M TIRED OF LION GUARD/LION KING ONLY HAVING LION AND LION RELATIONSHIPS! IS IT TOO HARD TO ASK FOR A CHEETAH X LION OR A LEOPARD X LION? EVEN LION X HYENA JUST GIVE SOMETHING CREATIVE AND YOU'LL BE CREATIVE ASWELL! IS THIS TOO HARD TO ASK!?
