From the fandom perspective some people do not like the idea of Kion and Vitani as a couple because it would be too much of a rehash of Kovu and Kiara. If Rani were Kovu's Sister would fans then not like the Idea of a Kion and Rani parring because that would be an even bigger rehash of Kovu And Kiara would it not? That's where the theory really kicks in. We all know Kovu and Kiara will end up together in the Pridelands. Bringing Kion and Rani together would be a parallel.

I assume Kion and the rest of the guard will be leaving the Pridelands at some point in the show. They'll meet Rani during their adventure and she explains that she lost her brother when they were very young cubs. Neither she or anyone else knows it is Kovu, but once she and Kion eventually return to Pride Rock for a royal visit, Rani and Kovu will recognize each other and it will make for a double reunion.

I don't think so. From my understanding, Rani is an ADULT lioness, so I can't imagine Disney pairing them. Actually, I cant imagine them having ANY pairings in this show.
