The Lion Guard (Remake)

The Lion Guard is a 2023 American animated television series developed by Ford Riley and based on Disney's 2019 remake of The Lion King.
== Plot ==
Kion, as second-born son of King Simba and Queen Nala and younger brother of Kiara, is gifted with a power called the Roar of the Elders and becomes the leader of the Lion Guard, a team of animals who protect the Pride Lands and defend the Circle of Life. With his friends Bunga the honey badger, Beshte the hippo, Fuli the cheetah, and Ono the egret, Kion sets out to keep the Pride Lands safe and protected from those who disrespect the Circle of Life.
Starting in Season 2, the Guard's mission becomes harder when Scar returns as a fiery spirit to destroy the Pride Lands. Scar forms an army consisting of the Outland animals. This eventually leads to an all-out battle between the Pride Landers and the Outlanders.
After Scar's defeat at the beginning of Season 3, the Guard travels out of the African Pride Lands and across Asia to find the Tree of Life where Kion and Ono can heal from their battle injuries. Kion's team also gains a new member, a peregrine falcon named Anga who replaces Ono as the new keenest of sight after Ono temporarily lost his eyesight, while Ono gets a new position as the smartest.
Upon reaching the Tree of Life, the Guard helps defend the safe haven from invaders with the Night Pride, the royal family who rule and protect the Tree of Life. Once first Ono and then Kion are cured and their enemies defeated, Jasiri, Janja, and Reirei come to warn the Guard that Zira and her pride are back. The Guard returns to the Pride Lands, only to find out that the conflict has already been settled, and that Zira's daughter and Kovu's sister Vitani has formed her own Lion Guard in their absence, which causes between both Guards. After seeing Vitani's confidence in becoming a leader even without the Roar, Kion allows Vitani's Guard to succeed his own as defenders of the Pride Lands. Kion and his friends return to the Tree of Life where Kion marries Rani and is crowned King of the Tree of Life with all the Pride Landers, Outlanders, Back Landers, and Theluji Mountain gorillas attending.
