English term or phrase: mighty Asian
You're four or five, this is your yard, and you and a bunch of other sweaty kids are playing hide-and-seek. Out there in the dark, you're a pirate, you're a hoot owl, you're mighty Asian about to roar.

Alguien tiene alguna idea de qué es un mighty Asian, por favor? gracias

no hay más contexto, por lo de rugir, pensé que era un león, pero no tengo idea.

mighty asian
poderoso tigre asiático


Explanation:
Unless you know for sure that it refers to a lion I would go with tiger since there are tigers only in Asia, but there are lions both in Africa and Asia.
