Perhaps Jaga thought she would be able to handle things more maturely than she did, being a cleric and all. One of the problems with Cheetara is that she refuses to take any responsiblity for this mess. She even blamed Jaga, by saying he was the one who sent het to look after Lion-o. If Cheetara admitted fault and apologized, Lion-o would likely forgive her.
I thought that was interesting that she didn't look him in the eyes. She turn away to say jaga. Then she say this doesn't change their relationship. What relationship?? I couldn't believe she said that. She should've said sorry for leading him. When asked her that, she said I thought you were ok with tygra and me. I wonder if she didn't know how he really felt. |

The way i saw L/C was the way i saw T/R a bit, the way Ryouko acted ( like pressing up against him and stuff) i thought for sure L/C would end up together. I'm a little dissapointed, but i would have liked for T/C to be told better. Flashbacks like that only work in Shoujo manga.

I found it funny that they did the whole flashback thing with C/T and reinforce the concept that you do end up with your childhood love in the end (way too Japanese for me). I mean Lion-O may be immature that's true, but give him time and the proper environment to grow and he'll become the best. Too bad Cheetara can't seem to wait for that, so I hope they give Lion-O a decent love interest in the future, one way hotter than Cheetara .

But at least Sakura and sasuke knew each other. They were on a team together and grew together. Like in Japan anime the childhood crush, is develop. They go to school together or they grew up together. This wasn't. |

Storyline build up is not a great concern for these writers.

What I wonder, is how did the writers think we would see Cheetara? They've made her seem deceptive and untrustworthy, so with the exception of some T/C fans, everybody in this thread for example seems to have a negative opinion of her.

I think a lot if the audience has a VERY negative opinion of Cheetara now. Between leading Lion-o on, and her dereliction of duty, its like I said before Lion-o has no reason to trust Cheetara on any level,. Which is why I said ( much to the disdain of some posters), that logically Lion-o would be within his rights to banish her. She has become a hindrance to the group dynamics.

At the same time if the description of "The Trials of Lion-O: Part 2" is reliable Mumm-Ra may force the other Thundercats to confront their own flaws and mistakes (Tygra dumping on Lion-O, Cheetarah leading him on, Panthro and the Wileykittens for... not having enough screen time to make a difference) in order to break their spirits before Lion-O turns the tide. |

I don't think the show's quite that pessimistic. Lion-O will probably come out of the trials a better person, forgive Cheetarah, and move on with his life. He might still be lonely but he won't blame her for it.

I believe Lion-o is that humane. Which is why I said before that Cheetara is lucky she's not dealing with Claudus, since he would have had her head.

Since mumm-ra will capture them I hope the writers don't have any comic book ideas about who has to give him a bath.

She wasn't blaming anything on Jaga. She was explaining why she was following him. |

She's only a year older than Lion-O. Does it occur to anyone that she's inexperienced too? At least when it comes to relating to people? We know she's trained as a Cleric, but I hardly think that would leave much time for dating or even being around anyone who wasn't training with her.

Sakura had a crush on Saske way before they were teamed together.

That was to Tygra though, not Lion-O. Lion-O is the one she hurt. Yes it was unintentional, but a simple "Sorry" would go a long way.

That is my point. She was kid and then they got to know each other. Kid relationships and Adult relationships are on different levels.

The triangle is the single biggest mistake of the show. I worry the longer it goes on, the worse everyone will look.

The way it's presented in the show Tygra and Cheetarah aren't really in love with one another so much as they're in love with an idealized version of one another they've built up in their minds. Until the show confirms they've had any interaction between the flower incident and the Pilot that's the only assumption we have to go on. Only time will tell if the writers will address this issue and have them admit that the both of them have changed and aren't quite the same person they thought they were or if they decide to stick it out and make it work. Either way I don't thing Lion-O and Cheetarah will ever be together. As it stands now he's just so angry with her, but after coming through the trials he may realize that despite his initial attraction he simply doesn't truly want her. He was really interested in the rivalry with Tygra (Lion-O's voice actor went through a similar arc when he was in Boy Meets World).

Lion-O has to die to get over a lot of things, Cheetarah is just one of them and not even the most important one.

I think it's cruel that they're killing him off to get over things. How will that help anything? And i know a lot of kids are gonna be upset. You don't kill the main character.
They cancelled the anime for now since the ratings were low and the final arc in the manga is starting. |
