Thank you for agreeing. Well, I ship Kion and Jasiri (KJ) as I thought they would be very dramatic after the unfinished tale of Kopa and Asante (KA). KJ was obviously based on KA, Kion and Jasiri even used the term Asante, means Thank You in Swahili, on multiple occasions.

About the natural matter, I agree that the same species works well, but I personally wondered that inter-species relationships can work as well. We know there are infants without parents such as Bunga and Fuli, and we know that Simba and his bloodline would have perished if Pumba and Timon didn't raise him. So, Pumba and Timon still completed the Circle of Life, and I expected the same for Kion and Jasiri.
