Premise
[edit]The series tells the adventures of an anthropomorphic lion named Şakir who lives with his little sister, a cat named Canan, mother named Kadriye, whose also a cat, and his lion dad Remzi, his adopted 120-year-old tortoise father, Peyami, and their best friend, Necati, a purple elephant. There is also Mirket, a brown meerkat scientist who has a laboratory, and Tanju, a brown homeless dog who lives on the streets and is unemployed. The three main villains of the show are Kürşat, Ercan, and Necmi, who are a vulture, a gorilla, and a fox respectively. Starting in episode 235, Nejati's cousin, a pink elephant named Filsu is introduced, she is the first character on the show to be disabled, and uses a wheelchair to get around. The show is set in an animated version of İstanbul, but with magic, spaceships, parallel realms and all sort of regular show freakness.
