Thank you so much for your stance on this. I've been plagued by people for years by throwing my name in this whole debate because I've been a Kimba fan since I grew up in the 60's. It's soOOoo refreshing hearing your view on this and Fred Ladd. Every year, Fred would beat on me to get me to "spill the beans" on a movie I never worked on.

Dude, not cool. Osamu Tezuka died of stomach cancer in February of1989. He was known as the Japanese Walt Disney and the 1965 Kimba series was the first anime broadcast in color. That's a very big deal. I have lost love ones to cancer and I know firsthand what sort of pain they went through. I can only imagine what he went through, especially with stomach cancer. Imagine vomiting all the time and not being able to eat and possibly having a mass growing in your stomach. and chemotherapy is one hell of a bitch, it will kill you faster than cancer will.

It's fascinating on how Tezuka's son and the Tezuka company are the smartest people throughout this whole controversy by not turning one of Osamu's iconic work into an argument against someone else's work.

[@c-puff]

Adum is right, and as a MAJOR Tezuka fan, it REALLY pisses me off that people only know him as the "Disney rip off guy". Like it actively upsets me. Especially when Kimba isn't evenly NEARLY some of his best work. Being both one of his earliest manga and anime, and being an extremely poor example of his true masterpieces like Phoenix, Buddha, Message to Adolf and Apollo's Song. Honestly thank FUCK for that Dororo anime that came out recently because at least it's SOMETHING Tezuka wrote being put in the public eye to a Western audience that isn't fucking Kimba. Sorry if I commented on these highlights with a similar message before but I'm mad X'D. And Adum gets too many messages on twitter and YT for some random asshole (me) to be like "Yeah Tezuka's other work is really cool!" and not actually contribute anything to the conversation. tldr; Adum's right and the Kimba Conspiracy theorists (because I refuse to call them fans simply based on their behaviour) are assholes who have tarnished Tezuka's reputation and importance.

[@michaelstrong5383]

It's really sad how Tezuka is considered the godfather of manga and created anime the way it is today, and yet people keep assuming he's the guy The Lion King supposedly ripped off of.

[@canalsincontenido]

The kimba did it first people are the Alex Jones of manga discussion. You end up turning them into white noise, I've never seen this stuff being brought up when talking about Tezuka but it was something I've heard since I was 10.

[@canalsincontenido]

@dilophosaurus65 well, tezuka popularized most budget saving used in anime to this day. Astroboy is comically cheap. He also scammed everyone and was in the forefront of exploiting work while technically not breaking the law. The big bang of anime production came from people being sick of working for him. But also all the good stuff you always hear. So his reputation is a mixed bag, way too complex to be grasped by the kimba conspiracy guys. They just want to dunk on Disney, they'd never care for him anyway.

[@pupstarproduction15]

I can only agree as a fan of Astro boy it is sad that his reputation is in this stupid controversy

[@Alberich_Prince_of_Dwarves]

My main take-away from this is I have to watch Black Jack and some of Tezuka's other work. Tezuka deserves better fans than the Kimba crowd.

[@NinjaGodzilla]

The thing he was agreeing me with at 11:30 was the fact that the kimba crowd has forever attached the lion king to kimba which has arguably made things worse for them

[@c-puff]

BTW in the Kimba manga (and I don't think this happens in the anime but I'm not sure) Kimba starts wearing Mickey Mouse-like shorts with suspenders and walks on hind legs as he further tries to elevate the jungle animals to the sophistication of humans. (He becomes disillusioned by humans later on as he grows older thanks to his numerous run-ins with poachers and criminals, leading to him rejecting the human sophistication and why he stops speaking to humans as an adult). I don't see Kimba fans bring that up that much....

[@michaelstrong5383]

That's only because they look for points that works for their own benefit. "There's a warthog in Kimba, and Pumbaa is a warthog. They're the same character somehow, therefore ripoff."

Tezuka Productions NEVER wanted to sue Disney. The confusion comes from a quote where a Tezuka Productions spokesperson said "we're a small weak company, and Disneys lawyers are among the best in the world", but what they neglect to mention is that quote was in reference to colleagues in the industry telling them they should sue, and that's what he was saying in response. And this quote is literally right after the spokesperson says that everyone in the company thinks they are completely different stories.

[@squirtluigi]

@@laimaiu I watched it as a kid then rewatched it recently after reading the manga, I must say it suffers both from only adapting the second half of the manga and condensing half of a manga in a single movie. Scenes change quickly and the 2 plots (Kimba helping the reserchers and Lume in the human world) don't fit with each other, it's unfocused and the big scenes don't hit as much as they could. Not to mention Ham Egg is turned from a poacher whom we also saw the human side of to a generic 100% villain whom has no redeeming qualities whatsovever. The animation is really nice and it's probably the most faithful animated adaptation of the manga

One was about a lion who wanted all the other jungle animals to be part of some inter species brother hood, where as the other, seemed to be based on Shakespearean court intrigue. This is like saying the series "Speed Racer" ripped off the film "Grand Prix", because they both had racing cars.

[@lordkyzer2]

the saga has come to an end

[@mrtomfox]

Imagine being upset that popular lion cartoon gets more attention than lion cartoon you like so you doctor clips to prove a faulty point to win respect points from strangers on Twitter. Disney is guilty of a lot of shit but THIS is the hill people wanna die on? Wild... The video was legendary btw YMS, keep up the good work!

[@ijustlikebees]

This has been going on for a looooong while, I think the simpsons even made a joke about it

[@kastiffia9431]

"I don't know why Fred Lad is doing this". Well, money? He stands to gain a lot if English speaking people look into the dubbed version of Kimba based on his claims.

Thanks YMS Highlights and all the work you do! She's kept an organized channel over here!

[@ShamankingZuty]

This has been such a great ride. Thank you YMS Highlights, you are doing God's work. Keep up the great work.

[@JogVodka]

I love the Kimba/Simba saga in this YMS anime

[@silverlightsinaugust2756]

Ghost Rider is a horror-themed vigilante, a regular slacker type guy with a symbiotic relationship to a cosmic entity that uses lethal means and fear tactics on occasion. Venom is a horror-themed vigilante, a regular slacker type guy with a symbiotic relationship to a cosmic entity that uses lethal means and fear tactics on occasion. They serve the same dramatic role and function. Never mind the differences, let’s focus on the similarities as if they’re proof.

Well, it has been quite a trip. Can't wait to see the final product.

[@MarkyMatey]

This was so fun watching it live.

[@FortoFight]

"Faith of the Heart" (the theme from Star Trek: Enterprise) comes to mind.

[@eacy7deacy]

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME!

"lion animated bullshit" Yesss

[@lunalluna9401]

I love how he talks with so much passion about a show that he probably doesn't even like lol

[@na5794]

1:53 his argument is so mental he might as well have said "theyre both birds."

[@lespaulnasty31]

there was a 2019 movie about lions that definitely ripped off Kimba though

[@lunaneoma3894]

I love the way it goes from an intelligent, well thought out and researched take on the Kimba controversy and then right at the end it's like "I dont care if his dick is barbed I just love his character. I dont want my ass destroyed..... (secretly does)" Never change Adum

[@suprshin]

This needs to be made into a Netflix series.

[@spvstu]

amazing point the person between the artist. dahm.

[@MrSpoodersaurus]

Thus the Kimba saga ends

[@heisenbaj]

Every generation has a legend.

"Those are people responsible for things turning out terribly." Only when you hear about them. When they do their job well, they can be invaluable. But also, when they do their job well, you never hear about them because they don't go around inserting themselves into the discussion. "Because people love this property more than your property." Except Kimba isn't really anybody's property anymore. None of these people have seen Kimba. It's not because they want others to like what they like, it's because . . . how to phrase it . . . Bullied anime nerds are quick to leap to the defense of anime in general, even if the specific anime in question is total garbage, because people "bullying" anime is equivalent to bullying them. So, when someone claims Disney is bullying Tezuka's family, or stealing Tezuka's intellectual property, they leap to Tezuka's defense without bothering to learn the facts. To be fair, it's super easy to believe Disney would do that, because they have done that sort of shit many many times in the past. It's just that it's not true in this instance. "He has other accomplishments." Holy shit does he. The man published I think over 9000 volumes of manga on top of overseeing production of a number of anime based on his work. And I'm not memeing there, I think the actual number of volumes of manga he published is literally over 9000. "Tezuka Productions couldn't get the funds (to file a lawsuit)." Pffft. Ha! If anyone thinks Tezuka Productions, representative of the most influential Japanese media creator and current owner and overseer of all his intellectual properties (which number in the hundreds), doesn't have the money to file a lawsuit to protect their own material, they're seriously delusional.

With "The Lion King is over" it's going to be a national festival.

[@nera9526]

This was fantastic to keep up with, I’ve been listening to these videos in the background while playing Minecraft

[@galoisdeer2660]

I hope Adam incorporates that sexy lion baseball mascot into his video
