The Lion King was my favorite Disney film before. Until I realized they did Kimba wrong. And I'm not really a fan of Kimba.

Fucking hacks.
Sito explained that wasn’t necessarily the case. “Honestly, I think it’s seriously coincidence,” the animator said. “You know I’m not a spokesman for Disney, but I was there during all the story development and nobody consciously thought [about] that. I think when you do the kind of things that lions do, the grasslands and the kind of environment they’re in, and the type of props they would work with, trees and rocks and the other animals, I think some similarities are inevitable.”
translation: Disney paid me shitloads of money to look the other way. Not worth it to fight Disney anyway, they will drown you with the most expensive lawyers on earth.
