Fuli/Relationships

The relationships of Fuli from The Lion Guard.
==Romance==
===Azaad===
Fuli did not like Azaad at first because he refused to help her get tuliza for her friend, Kion. Once they got to know each other through after Azaad helps her get tuliza for Kion, she dreamily wishes to see him again. When Azaad and Ullu bring Janja and Jasiri to the Tree of Life to warn Kion about Zira's threat to the Pride Landers, Fuli is excited to see him again. Fuli and Azaad fall in love on their way back to the Pride Lands and do not stay away from each other for long from this point on.
==Friends and Allies==
===Kion===
Kion and Fuli have been close friends ever since they were toddlers. She was the last member to be willing to join Kion's Lion Guard because she thought that Kion was arrogant. However, she warmed up to him when she officially joins his guard. After Kion gets a scar in Season 3, Fuli acts as Kion's conscience when the venom in his scar is affecting him. When Bunga insists that that Kion will turn evil, Fuli stands up for Kion and claims that he will never turn evil. When Kion becomes king of the Tree of Life, Fuli is very happy for him.
===Bunga===
Even though Fuli does get annoyed by Bunga on occasion, she still values him as a friend. She was worried about him when he was bitten by Ushari. She was upset with Bunga when he claimed that Kion will turn evil and claims that there is nothing the Tree of Life residents can do about it because it's too late. Fuli, however, is certain (and later correct) that Kion will never turn bad.
===Ono===
Fuli acts as emotional support for her egret friend. When Ono loses his eyesight, she compliments him for saving Bunga in time. When Ono asks her if his eyesight will go back to the normal when they get to the Tree of Life, and Fuli responds that Ono will get his eyesight back soon.
===Beshte===
Fuli and Beshte have been close friends ever since they were infants. Fuli stands up for Beshte when Kion is being mean to him on their way to the Tree of Life. She even challenges Kion to a fight should he try to attack him. Despite this, like Beshte, she is still confident in Kion's character and quickly forgives him for his actions because like Beshte, Fuli knew that Kion did not mean to act horribly toward him and that his scar was controlling him. Fuli also comforts Beshte when a goose gets mad at him for helping her gosling.
===Makini===
Fuli occasionally finds Makini annoying, but considers the mandrill a friend regardless. Makini admires Fuli the most out of Kion's Lion Guard because she is the first ever female member. Fuli stands up for Makini when Makucha attacks her and Kongwe all by herself. When Kion slaps tuliza blossoms out of Makini's hands, Fuli scolds Kion for his mean behavior.
===Jasiri===
Fuli did not care for Jasiri at first because she was a hyena. However, when she helps save Kion against Janja's Clan, Fuli considers Jasiri a close friend. When Azaad questions why Fuli would have hyenas for friends (which makes logical sense considering hyenas often steal meals or kill cheetahs in real life), Fuli tells him that she is trustworthy.
===Simba===
Like the rest of Kion's Lion Guard, Fuli is a close ally to the king of the Pride Lands. When Simba works with Kion's guard while Kion and Kiara go to Udugu, he says that Kion would be proud of her and her friends. Shortly before Fuli and her friends leave for the Tree of Life, Simba asks Fuli specifically to bring Kion home safe.
===Zazu===
Fuli is a close ally to Zazu. She once ran around him when she was an infant. When Janja's Clan kidnaps Zazu from the Pride Lands, Zazu saves Fuli from being killed by rolling his cage. Fuli also helps save Zazu from Janja's Clan. They both believe they owe each other a favor after they saved each other. It can safely be assumed that Fuli and Zazu are still on good terms.
===Rani===
Rani used to think Fuli was a threat because her lion friend unintentionally used the Roar of the Elders on Baliyo. Fuli explains that she and her friends mean no harm to the Night Pride or the Tree of Life. Rani finds it hard to believe until Kion helps fight Makucha, Chuluun, and Ora. When Fuli worries that Kion is not getting better, Rani says that Kion has potential to be a good leader, and explains this to Rani. After Kion and Rani talk at the Lake of Reflection, Rani admits to Fuli that she is worried that Kion is not getting better as well. However, they are happy when Kion is fully healed from the venom.
===Dhahabu===
Fuli did not like Dhahabu at first because she was conceited and possibly grew impatient with her. However, once Dhahabu became a better leader, she decides to help her. When Dhahabu visits the Pride Lands, she is the one who saves Dhahabu from the wildfire and the one who helps fight Reirei's Pack of jackals. This may indicate why Dhahabu likes Fuli the most out of Kion's Lion Guard.
===Timon and Pumbaa===
Fuli did not like it when Timon touched her fur. She also didn't like it when Timon said that she and her friends have to get in line to talk to "Bunga the Wise." However, she warms up to Timon and Pumbaa when they get Utamu for Bunga. She was later eager to help Bunga put on a Christmas celebration for the meerkat and warthog duo.
==Acquaintances==
===Tiifu and Zuri===
Fuli did not like the fact that Kion asked her to hunt with these two because they are prissy and arrogant. Tiifu then claims to Zuri that Fuli is trying to replace them as Kiara's best friend. Another time, Fuli is the first to express dismay when she and the rest of the Guard were called over by them over a "fur emergency." However, they hang out with Dhahabu when she visits the Pride Lands. Fuli also defends Tiifu and Zuri from Reirei and her jackals when they attempted to attack them.
===Bupu===
Fuli does not approve of his stubbornness and Bupu also seems to think Fuli has a lack of manners because she does not say please to him every time she orders him. However, Bupu does care about Fuli. When he and his sable antelope herd were running away from Scar when his army took over Mizimu Grove, Bupu asked Fuli if she was okay and she said she is as long as she remembers to say please. Fuli and Bupu are assumed to be on good terms.
==Enemies==
===Makucha===
Makucha is the archenemy of Fuli. When Makucha tried to attack Makini and Kongwe, she tries to fend him off, but Makucha outwits her by jumping up a tree, so that Fuli would get her claws stuck. However, when Kongwe gives her advice on how to defeat the villainous leopard, she challenges him, and he zigzags until Fuli gets in his way and Makucha leaves them alone. However, Makucha attempts to get revenge on the cheetah and her friends when they head for the Tree of Life.
===Reirei's Pack===
Fuli figured out from the very beginning that Reirei's pack of jackals were bad. The rest of her friends realized that she was right. When the jackals joined Scar's side, they have fought Fuli many times, only to be defeated most of the time. However, they decide not to mess with her or her friends anymore after Scar is defeated and possibly leave the Outlands under Jasiri's rule.
===Kiburi===
Fuli was one of the first animals to confront Kiburi and detect that he is a bad crocodile. When he fights Makuu in a mashindano, she worries that Kiburi will win. However, once Kiburi and his crocodiles are exiled to the Outlands by Simba and join Scar's Army, they have fought the cheetah many times. Once Scar was defeated, the crocodiles do not pick on her or her friends anymore and possibly leave the Outlands under Jasiri's rule.
===Zira===
Fuli knew that Zira was evil when Rafiki told her about the Outsiders. When Jasiri tells her that Kion has joined her pride, Fuli tells her that Kion would never join Zira, or her Outsiders. When Jasiri and Janja go to the Tree of Life to warn her and the others about Zira's return, they rush to the Outlands, only to find out that Zira is deceased.
