;D well you saw the title- this is a Kimba fan thread- so all kimba pictures- movie listings, and rants would go here. I watched the original 1966 animated series on youtube and fell in love with it immediately. It also introduced me to the awesome creator and innovator behind it- Osamu Tezuka- the father of manga/anime. Some of you may recognize him as also being the creator of Astro Boy. There's other more amazing works by him that are exclusively in Japan like BlackJack and Phoenix. I recently watched the Jungle Emperor Leo movie released in 2009 and it was FANTASTIC! anyways, Kimba fans should post here and share in the fandomness! ;)

I can't believe nobody's commented on this yet! I thought Kimba was more popular than this, especially on an MMORPG involving lions...
I watched the 1997 movie for the first time today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Makes me want to watch the original 1960's tv show. I enjoy The Lion King too, but I can definitely see where Disney got it's inspiration. And it makes sense, because Tezuka himself was inspired by Disney. ^-^

kimba is a very beautiful story- it's sad to see that even in Japan it seems to be neglected a lot of the times.
