Talk:Rafiki

Okay, here's my question about Rafiki. His cackling. Is it just a mad fit, or is it something shamanistic, or is there any other related reason to it? Now in the original Lion King, we could perhaps say it was a mad fit because of his whole "Asante sana, squash banana" song, but I'm not sure about here... There are some things even the stars cannot tell me. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 20:38, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

KrytenKoro - Most bears were content to live their lives, mauling and eating one, maybe two humans at most. "Mass-murder," as the bears always said, "is for the sharks." But not Barry. Barry was different. He knew that one day, he would kill ALL of the humans. This is the inspiring, tear-jerking story of one bear and the dream he dared to dream. TALK - It's just 'cause he's a mandrill. That's what mandrills do.

Then I think summat needs to be done about the actual page... I didn't think it right that it said that Rafiki cackled because he had a mad streak. Helping others always comes before asking others for help. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 10:05, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

KrytenKoro - You should have figured out whether bodies age without their hearts, Nomura. TALK - Oh. I mean, as a mandrill, he kind of does? I mean, the movies certainly do portray him as a bit "off", but it doesn't seem to be an actual medical fit, or anything related to shamanism. He's just a bit...excitable.

He's "eccentric". --Neumannz, The Dark Falcon 22:51, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
