The Messed Up Relationship Between Scar, Mufasa & Their Father...
Фильм және анимация
The Toxic Relationship Between Scar & His Father In Disney's Lion King Is Not For The Faint Of Heart...
It’s common in Disney and Pixar movies for a character to have a strained relationship with one of their parents. In Aladdin, Jasmine and her father were constantly arguing. And Luca didn’t see eye to eye with his parents’ view on humans in the movie Luca. But no relationship has been as strained or as toxic as the one between Scar and his father, King Ahadi. Be warned, though. This is not a happy story.

Fun fact: a lot of African tribes have a tradition of naming weak/sick babies names with less-than-pleasant meanings to keep the spirits from taking them. Ergo, Ahadi and Uru naming Scar "Taka" was their way of keeping him from dying as a cub.

That is literally what I was thinking the entire video! The Dad probably didn't believe Scar was his
As far as I know... For a while, King Ahadi loved both his sons equally, but that changed over time. Taka began to make friends with the hyenas living on the border of Ndnona's lion pride territory, which was, of course, forbidden to a lion. From then on, Ahadi turned away from his second son, only caring for 'the golden boy' Mufasa. Muafasa's character also changed, he became pompous with his brother and spent less and less time with him. As a result, Taka became estranged from his father and brother, and from all the other members of the lion pride except his mother, Queen Uru. Taka may have received the scar, which later became his trademark, from his father as a child or as a young adult, or it may have been given to him by his brother Mufasa when Taka challenged him for leadership of the pride. From then on, Taka died and Scar was born. King Ahadi grew old and named his eldest son Mufasa as king of the Ndona Pride. From then on, Taka spent all his time with his mother. Uru sensed that he would soon be taking after his mate, so he asked "his little prince" that if he could not forget the hurtful words and rough play of his father and brother, he should at least forgive them. The next morning only Scar woke up, Uru was dead. The "eternal second" prince was left alone for a long time after that.

The name "Taka" isn't actually canon, the A tale of true brothers book isn't canon the canon backstory was from the Lion Guard his name was confirmed to be Askari named after the first leader of the Lion Guard which... IS CANON. Mufasa means "King" in swahili, Askari on the other hand actually means soldier, he was named to protect his big brother ar the leader of the guard.

Well the book isn't canon anymore but it used to be before the lion guard came along, but saying it was a snake is just weird cause it doesn't really fit to how it looks. A snake bite wouldn't look like that right? Plus he'd be blind if that was the case since snakes are poisonous, or some are.
What do I think...it is taking an obviously established evil fictional character who initially had no real back story then creating a endless stream of what if's to try to paint him as possibly a victim. Yet you see in the main movie that he murders the king and then instead of justly ruling he is a tyrant. The only way any prior speculative stories can be made to set him as possibly just a abused victim who went for revenge is if the initial part of the story were completly altered. He would have at least tried to make the kingdom function to some degree otherwise but it plainly states he stripped the land dry purposly.

Many people not so well mentally were victims of some sort at some point in their lives. Booth can be true at the same time. Even in the first movie we see how Mufassa treats him, constsntly putting his physical advantage over him. Dominating and in a sense even unessrsarily "demasculating" Scar. His Name is also changed after his injury he carries in his face, and even then kinda gives us a reason for all the resentment and why he became this ruthless and evil. His downfall booth tied to the Hyenas and the lack of love he inspired in his subjects. So adding some more background isn't the problem. You just gotta learn that you can acknowledge evil and the origin why. No one is born evil. But they still get judged for it all the same.

@@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm I do not dissagree with your reasoning but choosing to become a monster because of the abusers around oneself is not the answer. While a child has no way of removing themselves from their abusers on their own they can still choose not to give into the liars whispers. Eventually all individuals must accept that they can not co-exists around those that refuse to accept them. That they must remove themselves stop wasting their love on those monsters and foster relations with more ginuine individuals. Yes there will be slander and other means used to turn the abused into monsters but that is what the abusers want. It gives them an excuse to destroy the abused person or to make anything they speak about seem a lie. It is simply a game psycologicly that they use to try to destroy the witness. In the end one must choose to become spiritually awaked or to give in to the hate. Most give in to hate and seek revenge. Not knowing they only reienforce the abusive monsters labling of them to all those around. What they can not see is that there is a whole world outside of their tiny existance and that eventually they will meet others who are not wolves in sheeps clothes. My comment is about how the original character must have alterations made to his disposition in order for origin stories like these to fit in. But you cannot go about changing the narative to suit ones own agenda. Truth is truth and lies are lies. Half truthes are just manipulations of reality. If they truely wish to make these new origin stories make sense they must go back to the original material and make a alternative version from scars perspective and use his offscreen time to show another side of him. Until then all these what ifs are meaningless what ifs.

I’d go with the lion guard explanation of how scar got his scar since in that episode scar does explain that story himself
"People are not born heroes or villains . They are created by the people around them." ~Chris Colfer
Scar being a dark mane lion was probably seen as a threat even by his own father.
Nice video. If they do address the relationship in the upcoming special, I think it would actually work if this is how they approach the issue. To coin a phrase from a friend of mine "the best kind of villainy is the kind when the villain is perfectly within their rights to be upset, but go about it in all the wrong ways." Hades and Maleficent(both incarnations) are prime examples, however 2014 Maleficent realizes her mistake, and does everything she can to rectify it. This can also be seen in other media like X-Men with Magneto, or Batman: the animated series with Mr. Freeze. Then there's alsoThor from 2011, which runs a bit similar yet differently. I think it would be interesting to have this be the reason why Scar was evil, and the icing on the cake...Ahadi created his own Frankenstein.
Scar would have been evil regardless because he wasn’t as strong as mufasa but felt like he was smarter…He was gonna want to be king no matter what

Scar looks more like ahadi than mufasa
I think that made him succeptable to villiany. There could have been other influence like the hyenas who lived seperate from the kingdom or the outlanders remember until Simba told Kovu he never understood what happened with scar as told by simba. They have different perspectives, really all I know is it's not natural for lions to eat mice for lunch. I don't think Simba was any help at all.

In the "A Tale of Two Brothers" origin story, You're right that Ahadi could have reassured Taka that the three of them would go on a hunt as soon as possible. Still, as for the rest of the story, it seems that the only reason Ahadi's favoring Mufasa and diminishing Taka is that Mufasa really does understand kingly duties and Taka's a spoiled brat.

But i think he has some other metanolosm or muscle issues. He has the dfive and dominsnce but lacks the strengh and size. Mufassa has that snd keeps using thst to threaten Scar into accepting his authority. As we saw in the OG movie. Its also a anthro Animal tale using human systems of royal succession. So he basicly got his throne as firstborn. And Scar had to "deal with it" or challenge him physically. The new successors birth was the nail on the coffin.
Man, I wish this was story for the new Mufasa movie and instead they decided to not use this. The trailer shows they are completely ignoring that this novel exists.
Weird tho, because the lion guard said scar was scarred by a snake with a venom that turned him evil. That in a series that explained why kion was not in lion king 2
Sasuke: What Did You Say About Taka 🤔😤
Poor lion 🦁
Taka doesn’t immediately mean trash in Swahili, taka means want, that is the first thing one will think of when you mention taka, takataka is the Swahili word trash, taka is like slang only used in some very specific regions. Swahili has such many words where when you join two of the same words the meaning completely changes like “Bara” which means Ocean but when you add another “bara” to the word for it to become “barabara” it then means road.
Scars dark mane shows he was better
Its funny because their father resembles more scar than mufasa.
Well actually now mufasa is an orphan who was lost, till he met taka(aka scar) and accepted him as his brother and they had different parents by different names, no ahadi and uru You can see more by reading cast for next lion king movie prequel

Fun fact: Lions with darker manes tend to be more popular with the females. Their dark manes are caused by high levels of testosterone in their body, making them fit to be the pride’s male or “king of the pride lands” as Disney would call it.
Ok, so your changing facts and I have to now personally look at everything to see the real story. Mufasa in the live action actually stands up for Scar. When he's told that he should exile Scar he responds "He is my brother. This is his home. As long as I'm king, that will never change." It's Scar who says "I wouldn't dream of challenging you again."
So scar wasn't the real villain after all. He was made that way.
grew up speaking swahili. king is 'mfalme' and trash is 'taka taka'
Now I see why scar killed mufasa I feel bad for scar
Make am original serie of this please. It wil be a big succes!
No you got it all wrong. Ajadi had travelled the lands and he actually named his son Taka to honor the true predatory nature of scar .. like a hawk
Mufasa looks more as his father ngl.
So in other words, scar had daddy problems.
