Cheetara's relationship with Lion-O has taken some MAJOR blows in the last few eps where she's had notable parts. should she see her being knocked from the 'go-to-gal'/alpha female of the group I expect may have some emotional knocks for Chee-Chee if not have a lil green eyed monster lurking in the Thunder-Tank.

also a thought what if all of the cats take a bit of a shine to Pumyra. Panthro can relate with the former gladiator from what I took from the spoilers, she's closer to the kitten's age so they may be drawn more to her than Cheetara, and also ... well I've voiced my theory on how Tygra is around females in other posts. would be fun to see a female rivalry kick off...

in other words...

CAT FIGHT!!!!

Um...other than being the oldest female, how has Cheetara had an Alpha presence on this show? She's been in the background since day one. Show me the receipts

Helping Lion-O with his self-doubt has been about 90% of her character. Other than telling him to believe in himself, she doesn't do much...
Unless you mean fighting, but it's an action heavy show so...yea.

Eh, I'm not to big on the "cat fight " trope. It's a common one, but it's silly(IMO). Women are capable of getting along with each other. Just because we have a new set of tits in the group, it doesn't mean we have the old ones should feel like less. It reinforces that whole, women are petty and jealous stereotype. We just can't stand to see another woman come out on top.
Now, I would be happy to see her rebuild her relationship with Lion-O. It would be nice to see that he can still come to her with his doubts ( I just don't want her character to amount to Lion-O's emotional post). From what I can tell from the spoilers, Pumyra seems like she would come off a little too harsh. Considering the you can do it approach Cheetara took, he might not be as receptive to the tough love approach. If you ask me, Nu-Lion-O probably doesn't need as much hand holding.

Considering Cheetara doesn't do much, I don't see what Pumyra could possibly take from her.
I'm not even a Cheetara fan, but the writers are planning big things for Pumyra, yet Cheetara hasn't had a character arc yet? What are they waiting for?
