When he finds out that he can rule all the land he sees he becomes determined and excited to be king. This is shown in the musical number “I just can’t wait to be king”. . Naive He’s very naive (refering to the scene in the graveyard), cause he doesn’t realize that his actions have consequences. Also, he doesn’t realize that Scar is out to get him, he just follows Scars ideas (temptation) and doesn’t second guess if it’s wrong or not. So he is very immature, because he is only a cub.
After his father was killed simba thinks he is the one that killed him, he runs away in to the jungle. Simba really doesn’t care for anything until he meets Timon and Pumba.

The Term Paper on Oedipus The King Kill His Father
Background to Oedipus the King In ancient Athens, plays were performed at the Festival of Dionysus (Bacchus), and were performed competitively; three playwrights would present four different plays each (a trilogy of tragedies and one satyr play, or comedy), and then a panel of judges would determine the winner. As part of a religious festival, plays were not merely entertainment, but served to ...
He finds his responsibility and goes to pride rock to fight scar and retake what was really his. 7. Mature/Responsible As Simba grows to be an adult; he takes on his responsibilities and holds the title of king again. Also he has a daughter, which makes him grow even more. Growth: Simba’s growth is definitely due to various characters in the story: 1. Mufasa: Simba definitely shows growth when he learns that all consequences have actions. The scene in the graveyard for instance, when he realizes that being brave is more then just being a lion.
Being brave is about knowing what you are up against and knowing how to handle the situation. 2. Timon and Pumba: When he meets Timon and Pumba, he learns another way of life which he is not used to. This is a carefree life without any worries. He learns that he doesn’t have to be responsible and that he can also have fun while living his life. It’s not necessarily good growth, but growth nonetheless. 3. Rafiki: After refusing to go back home, he encounters the mystic babboon one night and follows Rafiki when he says he knows who Simba is.
He leads him to a water hole, where he sees his reflection. Rafiki instructs him to look closer and he will ‘see’ Mufasa. This is when he realizes that Rafiki means that he is the next Mufasa. He is the next king and he should go back to fulfill his duties.

Outside. There are different opposing characters that draw a conflict. First of all there is conflict between Simba himself. He has to choose between staying in the jungle, carefree and doing what he always has been doing or being Simba, the future king, filled with responsibilities and power. In the end only one person can win, and Simba has to decide if he is going to take on his resposibilities, or stay back in the jungle. His reaction to this is to grow up and take on his responsibilities. Past vs. Future
One of Simba’s biggest conflicts is how to deal with his past. From the moment mufassa gets killed, simba lives in agony that he is the one that is responsible for the death of his father. When Simba gets found by Rafiki, Rafiki shows Simba that you should live towards the future and learn to live with the past. Because he says “the past can hurt, but you will learn from it”. Simba’s reaction is to immediately go to pride rock to find out that scar killed his father. The protagonist, antagonist and tritagonist Protagonist: Simba Tritagonist: MufasaAntagonist: Scar
