Kovu is real from the movie universe and we know what he's like, from a adorable cute cub to a handsome young adult. He becomes Simba's son in law and mate to Kiara. I don't know a thing about Kopa except reading about him in the TLK: SNA books, which I never read.

I like Kopa, but Kovu is one of my absolute favorites! Kopa is very similar to Simba.

I like Kopa better as a cub, but I like Kovu better as an adult. Strange, isn't it? XD

1. Kopa would steal the whole Lion King 2 story.
2. There would be a KopaXVitani thing which is annoying to me, no offense.
3. I don't like the fanfics that show Kopa dying, Kopa becoming king or Kovu being evil.
4. But I still like Kopa. He'd be a great playmate for Kiara and Kovu.

I agree with Faithgurl

Kovu, sure, he's better and also very handsome. I do not like Kopa, and I know he's not an official Disney character.

looking at these two, their body shapes are pretty similar. what if Kovu IS Kopa? (I know they're probably not, but look at how similar they are...)
