Jungle Taitei (1997) / ジャングル大帝 (1997)

Information

Description

Leo was born far away from his parents’ home because his mother was kidnapped and his father, the former king of the jungle, was killed by an avaricious hunter named Ham Egg. After his experiences and lessons in the human world, he returned to follow in his father’s footsteps. By now, Leo has grown up and had two cubs with his mate Lyra: a rather shy female named Lukia and the adventurous Lune, who has inherited his father’s white fur.

Meanwhile, Ham Egg has found a special stone in the middle of the jungle, but after unsuccessfully trying to sell it, he is taken by men in black suits to a group of scientists. They want to get more of this rock, called the Moonlight Stone; after all, it could be a potentially immense energy source. Ham Egg is supposed to be their guide, but his behaviour causes shock among his companions.

While Leo’s son Lune wants to learn more about the human world and therefore sets off for a city, his father soon has to fulfil his royal duties: Not only does the unscrupulous Ham Egg pose a threat to the peace of the jungle, but a terrible plague is also breaking out. What fates will await the two white lions on their respective paths?
Leo wurde einst abseits der Heimat seiner Eltern geboren, weil seine Mutter entführt und sein Vater, der einstige König des Dschungels, von einem Jäger namens Mr. Ham-Egg aus Habgier getötet wurde. Nach seinen Erlebnissen und Lektionen in der Welt der Menschen kehrte er zurück, um in die Fußstapfen seines Vaters zu treten. Mittlerweile ist Leo erwachsen geworden und hat mit seiner Gefährtin Lyra zwei Junge bekommen: ein eher scheues Weibchen namens Lukio sowie den abenteuerfreudigen Lune, der das weiße Fell seines Vaters geerbt hat.

Währenddessen hat Ham-Egg einen besonderen Stein mitten im Dschungel gefunden, doch nachdem er erfolglos versucht hat, diesen zu verscherbeln, wird er von Männern in schwarzen Anzügen zu einer Gruppe von Wissenschaftlern gebracht. Die wollen mehr von diesem Gestein, dem sogenannten Mondlicht-Stein, erhalten, schließlich könnte es sich dabei um eine potenziell immense Energiequelle handeln. Ham-Egg soll ihr Fremdenführer sein, aber sein Verhalten sorgt für Entsetzen unter seinen Begleitern.

Während Leos Sohn Lune mehr über die menschliche Welt erfahren will und sich daher auf den Weg in eine Stadt macht, muss sein Vater bald seinen königlichen Pflichten nachkommen: Nicht nur der skrupellose Ham-Egg stellt eine Gefahr für den Frieden des Dschungels dar, in diesem bricht auch einer furchtbaren Seuche aus. Welche Schicksale werden die beiden weißen Löwen auf ihrem jeweiligen Weg erwarten?
