KIMBA The White Lion
Kimba The White Lion was known as Jungle Taitei in Japan and translates as "The Jungle Emporer." It was a color anime series created and produced by Osamu Tezuka, through his own company named Mushi Productions, released in Japan in 1966 and aired on Melbourne TV in December 1967. The English version was produced and coordinated by Fred Ladd with Billie Lou Watt playing the voice of Kimba.
When Kimba reaches his home he must fight Claw, who has taken over as king of the jungle, from Caeser, and it is not until Kimba is captured by hunters and saved by a human that he realizes that ‘sometimes you have to fight for what's right.’
He comes back stronger, defeating Claw and, like his father, becomes king.
The very first episode titled ‘Go White Lion’ opens up with the words ‘Only the strong survive in the Jungle.’
Before Kimba is born, his father Caeser is killed trying to free Kimba’s mother Snowlene from lion hunters. The lion hunters are hired by the game warden to kill Caeser who is always releasing the natives' livestock as he wants all the animals to live a free existence but one day one of the hunters, called Viper Snakely, discovered how to capture Caesar: He captured Snowene, and used her as a bait in a trap for Caesar. While trying to save her, Caesar was killed, and Snowene was put on a steam boat heading to a zoo in Europe. Kimba is born during the trip.
His mother convinces Kimba to jump overboard. He later sees the wreckage of the ship in the water and realizes the ship must have sunk, and his mother is now dead, too. Kimba swims ashore guided by the memory of his father and the voice of his mother with her image being formed by a group of stars in the dark sky.
In his travels to reach the jungle he sees the great cities of the humans and decides if he ever reaches the jungle he will teach the animals to be civilized like the humans.
