Just watched episode 7 "Fuli's new family" and....oh man, Fuli is definitly the greatest character they have. I love her facial expressions and that she really is the kind of animal that wants to be alone. She also hates Kiara's 2 bitches, so I can really good identify myself with her. The message is also really good delivered and I absolutly love the song.
Probably my favorite episode together with "never judge a hyena by it's spot".
I'm really impressed how they worked on the series and the animations, because they become better and better with every episode. And Bunga was funny for the first time with a lot of screentime.
I personally hope that Kovu won't appear, I mean it would make absolutly no sense and seeing Timon & Pumbaa in the show...kinda tells me that the show would be better without some original characters. Nala and Zazu are okay, but I can't stand their Simba or, how I said, Timon & Pumbaa. I like they new characters way more than the old ones in this show.
