I feel like watching him come of age while rebelling against his lot/role, going on that adventure to find himself is really important, whether he’s technically a prince at the time or not.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Would The Lion King (original animated) count?

Not for long though. He got promoted after an unfortunate waterbuffalo incident.

I don’t think it really counts until he has his ascension to the throne after having a cool fight in a rain storm with his uncle.

No, inheritance law is clear, they’re on a clear male-only primogeniture system with no election from the peers, Simba was king as soon as his father died, The King is Dead, Long Live the King and such.
Scar was just a pretender to the throne.

But Simba voluntarily went into exile, de facto abdicating the throne to the next heir, which was Scar.
No pretending, Scar had a legitimate claim!

Isn’t Simba’s daughter, Kiara, in line to the throne?
