''' Kopa''' is a ] ] character in ] '']'' universe. According to a set of books titled ''The Lion King: Six New Adventures'' he is the son of ] and ]. The word ''kopa'' has multiple meanings in ].<ref>http://research.yale.edu/cgi-bin/swahili/lookup.cgi?Word=kopa&EngP=0&SUBMIT2=Look+Up</ref>

Although in the books, Kopa is the cub presented at the end of ''The Lion King'', his existence has been ]ned by the release of '']''. In the film, ] is the only child of Simba, and is presented in a ceremony different than the one at the first film's final moments. This suggests that Kopa died or disappeared before Kiara's birth. The most believed fan theory is that he was murdered by ], a lioness with loyal to ], being that the main reason why she and her pride where banished to the ]. That theory explains why Simba hates Zira and why he is so over-protective to Kiara.

==''The Lion King: Six New Adventures''==

In the book series, Kopa is featured prominently in '']''. He also had minor roles in other books of the set. According to the illustrations, he looks almost exactly like Simba as a cub, except for a small tuft of brown fur on his head. He is described as loving to hear stories.
In ''Vulture Shock'', Kopa wanted to find his family tree so he asked Simba to take him to it. Simba was busy and Kopa decided he'd find it by himself. After he found a lizard and chased it he ended up in a dry, barren land. He couldn't find a way back so he curled up and fell asleep. In the morning he was found by two vultures who took him for ransom. They kept him prisoner high up in a tree. He was later found by the Buzzard Boyz, a group of rapping vultures. They befriended Kopa and brought Simba and Nala to him. Kopa was then rescued.

In '']'', Rafiki tells the backstory of ] and ] to Kopa, and teaches him that we shouldn't be jealous of others.

]
In '']'', Zazu tells Kopa about his life when he was young and how he became the King's majordomo.
