* BrokenAesop: Much of the episode centers around Makuu's "might makes right" attitude being wrong, suggesting that a real leader doesn't throw their weight around. Kion ultimately gets the crocodiles to leave the float by demonstrating the Roar -- an incredibly powerful and occasionally deadly technique -- on some trees, implying he would have no trouble using it on the float. So the moral ends up being "don't resort to violence...resort to the ''threat'' of violence."
