The Call to Adventure: "The hero starts off in a mundane situation of normality from which some information is received that acts as a call to head off into the unknown."
Episode 1. Lion-O starts off in Thundera during his every day life.
Refusal of the Call: "Often when the call is given, the future hero first refuses to heed it. This may be from a sense of duty or obligation, fear, insecurity, a sense of inadequacy, or any of a range of reasons that work to hold the person in his or her current circumstances."
Episode 1 again. Lion-O see's Mumm-Ra in the sword, but refuses to admit it.
Supernatural Aid: Once the hero has committed to the quest, consciously or unconsciously, his or her guide and magical helper appears, or becomes known. More often than not, this supernatural mentor will present the hero with one or more talismans or artifacts that will aid them later in their quest."
Episode 2 Lion-O is forced to flee and Jaga gives him the sword and gauntlet.
The Crossing of the First Threshold: "This is the point where the person actually crosses into the field of adventure, leaving the known limits of his or her world and venturing into an unknown and dangerous realm where the rules and limits are not known."
Episode 3. after the funeral when they left Thundera.
Belly of The Whale: "The belly of the whale represents the final separation from the hero's known world and self. By entering this stage, the person shows willingness to undergo a metamorphosis."
Episode 3 again. (kinda funny how it's called belly of the whale and the episode was based off Moby Dick eh?)
The Road of Trials: "The road of trials is a series of tests, tasks, or ordeals that the person must undergo to begin the transformation. Often the person fails one or more of these tests, which often occur in threes."
Each episode is kinda a test.
The Meeting With the Goddess: "This is the point when the person experiences a love that has the power and significance of the all-powerful, all encompassing, unconditional love that a fortunate infant may experience with his or her mother. This is a very important step in the process and is often represented by the person finding the other person that he or she loves most completely."
This could be interpreted as Cheetara.
Woman as Temptress: "In this step, the hero faces those temptations that may lead him or her to abandon or stray from his or her quest, which does not necessarily have to be represented by a woman. Woman is a metaphor for the physical or material temptations of life, since the hero-knight was often tempted by lust from his spiritual journey."
This could also be interpreted as Cheetara.
Atonement with the Father: "In this step the person must confront and be initiated by whatever holds the ultimate power in his or her life. In many myths and stories this is the father, or a father figure who has life and death power. This is the center point of the journey. All the previous steps have been moving in to this place, all that follow will move out from it. Although this step is most frequently symbolized by an encounter with a male entity, it does not have to be a male; just someone or thing with incredible power."
Encounter with a male entity. Most likely a future fight with Mumm-Ra.
Apotheosis: "When someone dies a physical death, or dies to the self to live in spirit, he or she moves beyond the pairs of opposites to a state of divine knowledge, love, compassion and bliss. A more mundane way of looking at this step is that it is a period of rest, peace and fulfillment before the hero begins the return."
This could be where the comment Dan made about Death not being permanent comes into play.
The Ultimate Boon: "The ultimate boon is the achievement of the goal of the quest. It is what the person went on the journey to get. All the previous steps serve to prepare and purify the person for this step, since in many myths the boon is something transcendent like the elixir of life itself, or a plant that supplies immortality, or the holy grail."
Getting the stones and bringing the animals together.
The rest of the steps talking about Returning which would be obvious. Lion-O coming back to rebuild Thundera.
I think they're following these steps pretty accurately so far. I don't think I'm "reaching."
You are reaching. You will pull anything from any source so you can have T/C.
Lion-o has never lusted. Tygra has for cheetara. Jealousy is one of the deadly sins. No way around it.
