==Personality== | |||
Simba is a courageous, yet occasionally low self-esteemed ruler. He knows of his duty to rule the Pride Lands, but his fear of failure and disrespect often causes him to not do as well as he can. He is shown to be unself-reliant, always wishing he knew what his father would do in times of crisis, seldom thinking for himself. Simba doesn't have his priorities straight, and is constantly looking to do the right thing, but always says he fails of living up to his father. In short, Simba is a caring, brave and good friend, who is always looking to do the right thing. | |||

As an adult male lion, Simba bears a great resemblance to his father, Mufasa, the only significant difference between the two being that Mufasa's mane is longer, thicker, and darker. Simba has yellow-orange fur covering most of his body, except for his belly, paws, and mouth, which are peach-colored. His mane is rust-colored and parts on the right side of the top of his head. He has a tuft of fur the same color as his mane on the tip of his tail. Simba's eyes are orange and his sclera are yellow. His ears are partially visible poking through his mane, and he has eight dark whiskers; four on either side of his upper lip. | As an adult male lion, Simba bears a great resemblance to his father, Mufasa, the only significant difference between the two being that Mufasa's mane is longer, thicker, and darker.

When he is briefly seen as a cub in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Simba appears significantly different. His yellow-orange, adult fur is now pure yellow, he lacks his mane entirely, and the brown tuft on his tail is a bit less wild. Simba has large, circular ears that are rimmed with black as a cub and a scruffy patch of fur on the top of his head. Finally, he is, of course, much smaller in size than he is as an adult. | When he is briefly seen as a cub in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Simba appears significantly different.

Simba, when summoned, replaces the bottom command with Proud Roar, which can be charged. When charging, a ring grows around Simba. Any Heartless in the ring will be damaged when the attack is release, each time lessening the summon gauge. When the summon gauge runs out, Simba will be dismissed and the party members will return. | |||

In the beginning of the film, Simba is presented as the newborn cub of Mufasa, the Pride Lands' ruler, and his wife, Sarabi, by Rafiki to the entire animal kingdom. A rambunctious Simba grows up happily with his best friend, Nala, anxious and thrilled for the day that he will become king like his father. Mufasa teaches Simba of the responsibilities he will have to bear as king. Simba's jealous uncle, Scar, plans to kill Simba and his father to ascend to the throne. Luring Simba into a trap that costed Mufasa's life, Scar manipulates Simba into believing he was the blame for his father's death. Scar sends his hyenas after Simba to kill him for certain, but he was able to escape into the desert. After Simba collapses from heat exhaustion, he was found by Timon and Pumbaa, where Simba spends the next few years with them, and learning about their lifestyle in the jungle and their "Hakuna Matata" philosophy. Although Simba grew up fairly happy with his life, he is still plagued with guilt over his father's death. | ||
One day, Simba is reunited with Nala when she is chasing Pumbaa for prey. During a romantic evening between the two, where their feelings for each other were made apparent, Nala tries to convince Simba to return to the Pride Lands to free it from Scar's tyrannical rule, but Simba refuses. When Nala storms off, Simba meets with Rafiki and his father's ghost, encouraging him to not run away from his past and accept his rightful place as king. Simba heads back to the Pride Lands with Nala and the others, immediately searching for Scar to reclaim the throne. On top of Pride Rock, Scar forces Simba into admitting his role in Mufasa's death in front of the rest of the clan. However, after Scar reveals to Simba that he was the one that truly killed Mufasa, Simba coerces his uncle into confessing the truth to the lions. Simba was able to defeat Scar and reclaim the throne the Pride Lands. By the time the lands have been restored to its former glory, Simba and Nala are mated and a presentation ceremony was held in honor for the birth of their daughter, Kiara. | One day, Simba is reunited with Nala when she is chasing Pumbaa for prey.
