This edited screenshot comic is dedicated to all of my Muviro and Tarzan-loving friends. Sit back, relax, and revel in how seething and venomous Muviro’s and Tarzan’s epic rivalry is.
As you all know in my AU headcanon involving Tarzan being raised by Keewazi, having Kaj, George of the Jungle, and Basuli as his older brothers and Maugli as his younger brother, and even having Mufasa as his lion father and Simba as his lion brother, Tarzan has found his place in the Waziri tribe being surrounded by the people he loves the most ranging from his family especially his father Keewazi and his favorite brothers Simba, Kaj, George, Basuli, and Maugli all the way up to his best friends Kuwanga, Nomonga, Mawunga, Chowambi, Wasimbu, and Waranji.
In spite of all the love Tarzan ended up receiving from his friends and family, there was one person who despised him and showed much jealousy towards him. That person was none other than Muviro, who has always scorned Tarzan mainly for his difference and found him, Basuli, Maugli, George, Kaj, and Simba to be a huge threat to him and what he thinks the tribe should stand for. Ergo, Muviro’s rivalry towards Tarzan was based on fear and the lust to outmuscle him in every physical activity they do, especially their most favorite which is wrestling.
As children, Muviro would always bully Tarzan for not being the same as him and his other friends. On a physical level, he would even do his very best to beat Tarzan in every physical activity ranging from wrestling to vine-swinging to swimming. Despite Muviro’s physical strength, he could not beat Tarzan and his brand of athleticism, which led him to venomously taunt Tarzan as being bewitched by some witch doctors. Tarzan was not alone in this, as Kaj, George, and Maugli received the brunt of Muviro’s taunt as well. This vile statement led them to be initially discouraged until Mufasa, Keewazi, Simba, and Basuli reminded them that their differences are what make each other strong as a family and no other person should ever hurt them for being that way.
Growing up, Muviro’s and Tarzan’s rivalry towards each other became a whole lot more visceral and primal to the point where they would even threaten to rip each others’ limbs apart with their bare hands. Sometimes Tarzan would even go into full feral mode complete with Hulk speak in order for Muviro to be weak in the knees. However, knowing Muviro and his brand of muscle-powered strength, he would not flinch and would use his said strength to crush Tarzan.
Even as adults, their seething rivalry knows no end, though they would have moments where they would begrudgingly respect each other as friendly rivals. However, they would smirk at each other and express how much they hate each other. Nevertheless, their strength can make them pump a lot of iron in wrestling, weightlifting, and bodybuilding, as they continue to one-up each other.
I hope you all enjoyed this and I will see you in the next submission. Take care and stay safe, everybody.
