An amusing update to the Kimbaspiracy for those interested in viewing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-eVWy5fzUM EDIT: Half of my most-viewed videos are now demonetized so I've thrown a couple midrolls onto this video.
-
Damn, can't believe kimba invented Africa, and real life just ripped them off like that.
-
Adam Johnston the only person in the world who has phd in kimba.
-
Clearly Kimba is a prequel to the lion king, because the elephant genocide in Kimba led to the elephant graveyard in the lion ling
-
I can't believe that this "controversy" lasted for decades only because no one actually bothered to watch Kimba.
-
Personally, I think the Lion King would be much better if there were scenes featuring elephant tank genocide, vague themes of white supremacy, and multiple scenes of Simba running around and literally playing inside of Mufasa’s mangled corpse.
-
"Now I understand why the humans want to exterminate you!" Jesus Christ, Kimba...
-
imagine being a college law professor and getting owned by a gay furry
-
Let’s not forget that Scar himself looks like foreign, weak and with very female moves
-
“That’s a stupid question. Why does anyone have wings!” -tiger with wings God I love anime.
-
I can't believe America stole black face from Kimba, smh
-
Nah it’s clearly a rip off. Notice how they both have a beginning, conflict and resolution in that exact same order.
-
“Why couldn’t all the elephants be nice like Peewee? Then maybe they wouldn’t have to be exterminated.” -Kimba, 1965
-
Kimba parading around in his father’s corpse to inspire the animals reminds me of that time Disney paraded around in The Lion King’s corpse to inspire people to buy movie tickets
-
"I mean, just the name is similar: Star Trek, Star Wars. Hmm, suspicious."
-
You expect Matthew Broderick to be able to tell the difference between Simba and Kimba when he can't even tell the difference between a road with a guy on it and a road without a guy on it
-
-
WOW disney even stole the idea for disneyland from the episode where Kimba builds an amusement park. Unbelievable
-
The story of how a high school-educated Canadian furry ended one of the most pervasive controversies in all of copyright history, humiliated half of the internet, destroyed a law professor's career, and succeeded where the PR lawyers of one of the most powerful corporations in the world failed, all to defend the honor of a cartoon about singing cats.
-
I love how this has become THE most-viewed Kimba video on the entire platform. Ya boy Adum really changed history.
