Role in the series
Friends to the End
As the Lion Guard travels through a forest nearing the end of their journey to the Tree of Life, they notice Yun Mibu hanging upside down in a tree and he introduces himself. Everyone is amazed at his hanging abilities except for Kion. He aggressively tells the Guard that mingling with other animals slows their way to the Tree of Life and even growls at Yun Mibu, (which was all due to the venom in his scar affecting him), scaring him away. Beshte tells an out-of-control Kion to know why he roared at the clouded leopard to which he explains about the Guard's situations with the mother goose and a pride of peacocks to which he says that the Guard can't stop whenever they encounter a new animal which slows down the Guard. As it is explained that Kion was rude to the peacock leader and Yun Mibu in the situations Kion faced, he runs off to cool himself.
Later, when Kion is in danger of falling off a very high cliff, Beshte recruits Yun Mibu to help him. He is hesitant at first seeing he has to save "the scary guy", but the Guard convinces Yun Mibu to help, insisting Kion is a gentle animal, and that he wasn't himself earlier. Yun Mibu approaches Kion, who tries to apologies for earlier, though Yun Mibu settles for Kion promising not to growl at him anymore. When Kion wonders if the plan will work, Ono assures him that clouded leopards are excellent climbers, something Yun Mibu proves by hanging from a stump by his tail. When the tree branch starts to break, Kion is forced to jump to Yun Mibu's paws, allowing Anga to fly him to safety.
When Kion thanks Yun Mibu for his help and asks if there's anything he can do for him in return, Yun Mibu simply asks that Kion remember never to growl at clouded leopards like him since they don't like it. Yun Mibu then bids the Lion Guard a farewell after accepting Kion's apology.

Kion
At first, Yun Mibu was scared of Kion, since he growled at him. This was due to Kion being mad at the Lion Guard not for helping other animals but delaying on their way to the Tree of Life. However, when Kion is clinging on a branch, he even helped saved him with teamwork from Anga. They turned out to be good friends as Kion promised to never growl at him again.

Trivia
- He is the only clouded leopard in the Lion King franchise.
- "Yun Mibu" means "cloud" in Chinese.
- Since the Lion King franchise mainly takes place in Africa, Yun Mibu’s appearance is baffling since Clouded Leopards aren’t native to Africa.
