Story

Kingdom Hearts

In the first game, Simba appears as a Summon, using an attack called Proud Roar where Sora charges up the roar and fires off a powerful attack.

His world was destroyed; however, Simba's strong heart refused to languish in darkness, keeping his spirit alive and turning him into a Summon Gem, Earthshine. The gem was in turn found by Leon, who kept it as a "lucky charm", and was eventually given to Sora after Leon told him about the hearts of Worlds. After bringing it to the Fairy Godmother, she recognized it as a Summon Gem and immediately restored Simba's spiritual form, making him able to assist Sora in battles. After stopping Ansem (Xehanort's Heartless), Simba's body was restored and he returned to his own world.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

Simba Being summoned

In Chain of Memories Simba reappears as a figment of Sora's memories, and he is once again a summonable character. He's the first Summon Card you get, given to Sora by Leon after finishing his tutorial.

Kingdom Hearts II

In Kingdom Hearts II, Simba was surprised to see Sora, Donald and Goofy in the Pride Lands. He was more surprised that the three looked very different from when he last saw them, as they had taken on an animal form. He was even more amazed to find out that they had met his childhood friend, Nala. Sora, Goofy, Donald, and Nala attempted to convince Simba to return to the Pride Lands to overthrow Scar; however, Simba resisted until he met the spirit of his father, Mufasa who helped him rebuild his confidence. He returned to Pride Rock to find that Scar's hatred has turned Scar into a Heartless. After a battle on the top of Pride Rock, Scar was defeated, and driving the hyenas out, Simba took his rightful place as king.

However, the appearance of Scar's ghost caused Simba to have doubts, which made the other lions question his abilities as king. With Sora's help he was able to overcome these fears, defeat Scar's ghost and become the King he was meant to be.

Ally

When fighting, Simba uses his claws and fangs to wound the enemy, and, like Tarzan, can cure using herbs and animal knowledge. He's an agility-focused fighter, but with good strength and defense.

Simba is a physical attacker with a handful of healing abilities. He attacks very rapidly in battle using, as one would expect, his claws and fangs. He has no armor slots, two accessory slots and three item slots. Simba's abilities in Kingdom Hearts II are as follows:

  • Fierce Claw: Attacks an enemy several times.
  • Groundshaker: Attacks enemies around him.
  • Healing Herb: Restores the party's HP.
  • MP Rage: Restores MP when attacked.
  • Defender: Increases defense when HP is critical.
  • Auto Limit: Sets the Reaction command to Limit, if a Limit has been equipped.
  • Hyper Healing: Quickly revives a fallen party member and restores their HP.
  • Auto Healing: Restores HP when switched out for another party member.
  • Limit ability: Wildcat

Trivia

  • Upon summoning Simba in Kingdom Hearts, Simba appears in darkness, and bears resemblance to Mufasa, until he steps forward and is revealed in light.
