Role in the series
Vitani along with Kovu, Nuka, Zira, and their pride, appeared in the Disney Junior series The Lion Guard episode "Lions of the Outlands". She openly shows her distaste for Jasiri though that doesn't stop her from enjoying the young hyena's actions that help make Nuka look more like a fool than he already is. She is in awe and curious about the Roar, asking her mother to explain it before watching Kion use it on a cloud to make it rain. She is eager to fight when the Lion Guard shows up only to be taken down by Fuli. Vitani, along with the rest of the outsiders (sans Kovu), is blasted away by the Roar of the Elders to termite mounts. After Kion and his friends departed to the Tree of Life and her pride merged with Simba, Vitani formed her own lion guard to fill in for Kion's lion guard while they were gone. The Outlanders, not knowing that the two lion prides have merged, sends Jasiri and Janja to the Tree of Life to warn Kion. Once Kion and his friends return to the Pride Lands, they confront Vitani and her Guard, both mistaking each other as enemies, until Kiara and Kovu stop them before Kion could use the Roar. Vitani reveals that she didn't recognize Kion because he looks different with his scar and the Outlanders are with him. The next day at the Lair of the Lion Guard, Vitani reveals that she has formed her own Lion Guard to Kion and the others. The two guards then hold a competition to see whose Guard is better. When Vitani is pitted against Kion, she tells him that she doesn't need the Roar of the Elders because she believes that she's fierce enough to lead the Lion Guard. Remembering what Askari told him, this convinced Kion to accept Vitani and her lionesses as the new Lion Guard, giving her the position as the leader and the Roar of the Elders to Vitani. Vitani then tests her newly bestowed power, successfully using the Roar as the Great Kings of the Past roar with her, which officially makes her the leader of the Lion Guard. After Askari reveals himself and congratulates Kion for mastering the Roar, Vitani asks what he meant by mastering it, which Kion demonstrates by lifting Pride Rock, astonishing Vitani and her Guard.
