Very clear that Disney ripped off plenty of imagery from Kimba


the White Lion, and did their own spin on it.

Get in line, people have been complaining about that for years, and they are in the minority. I didn't even know that cartoon existed until a few years ago.

The group behind Kimba considered suing Disney a long time ago but got cold feet, determining that it was cheaper not to play ball with Disney's corporate lawyers. As you suggest, Kimba gets exposure out of this ironically, just not money.
