I HATE Kiara, because she has no personality and she's unintelligent. The entire movie follows the same "Romeo and Juliet" theme, which isn't bad, but it gets kinda old after a while. She's not quite as bad as Aleu, but still...

With the exception at the end,Kiara tells Simba,Daddy,this has to stop,and I have to agree,she's just an animated character.

Well I like her, even if she is ditzy and shallow. She was one of my favourite characters when I was little and I guess she's forever in my mind as one of the heroines of my childhood.

It's not like she was a fully grown adult or something, she was young, so I do forgive her "foolishness", it was minor compared to other sequel daughters anyway.

To me, she was just like Aleu, another crybaby made to get money off of kids.

Lol, I love you kohaku xD I couldn't say it better!

I don't find Kiara horrible. I think she just wasn't old enough to realize her mistakes. Yes, I do hate her for the way she was treating her father and ran off and everything. I think its quite normal for the makers of the film to have the story based on Romeo and Juliet. Because the first lion king was based on Hamlet. So I picked neither.

I think she's quite likeable, but she's just not my favorite female in the movie.

I respect her, but I do not really care for her too much.

I do not love her nor hate her, the reason for her foolishness was her age. She just wasn't old enough to understand she was being empty-headed and headstrong, she is like Aleu in many ways. The only things I like about her is her 'I don't take none of that from ANYONE' attitude and she stops the fight between the Pridelanders and the Outlanders.

Hate her? ARE YOU CRAZY!!! She's my favorite character!! LOVE HER XOXOXOXOXOXO

To be honest i don't really think she's "foolish" in the way she acts, I mean it's pretty dumb for Simba to always keep her in and make timon and pumba treat her like a baby.. it's just the way kids are when they grow older - they think they are old enough and are not "babies" anymore but Simba just keeps treating her like one. After her unsuccessful hunt Simba said that she can't do any hunts not ever, and i suppose it's the thing that lions do for fun which makes Kiara extra bored until she becomes really good friends with Kovu. But then Simba got ambushed by "Kovu's" pride and he got really mad at Kovu for some reason, after exiling him Kiara probably got really mad at her father and ran away. I personally don't find anything wrong with this.. actually i would have done the same. And then later she decides to return even though Kovu doesn't, that is a very wise thing she did. And besides that, she told her father to "stop" the war, reminding him when he told her "We are one." in the beggining of the movie, now that's really clever - even i wouldn't have had the guts to do that. So i think Kiara isn't "foolish" she is actually Smart, even though she does kinda laugh a lot in the beginning
But overall she's just another animated character anyways, we all have our opinions
