Tập 1: Di sản của Androcles và sự ra đời của Kimba

1

As the story begins, the backstory of Androcles (Kimba's white lion ancestor) is told. The white lion was worshipped like a god by the pharaoh until it was stolen. In the present time, the human village is having trouble with the white lion, Panja, because he sets the animals free into the jungle. Jake (Ham Egg) and Kutter agree to "take care of" the lion because Ham Egg can use the lion's hide for profit. Ham Egg and Kutter carry out a plan by capturing Eliza, Panja's mate, in order to lure the white lion within shooting range. Panja is shot and killed in front of Eliza. She tells Panja that she has his cub that will soon be born. Panja asks if the son can be named, "Kimba (Leo)". Eliza is taken to a ship to be sold to a zoo. Kimba is born on the ship. Eliza tells Kimba that he must go back to the jungle to take his father's place. Kimba resistantly jumps off the ship into the ocean. (Source: Jungle Emperor Leo Wiki)
