Line 33:
* [[Art Shift]]: Very noticable between the two movies. In ''The Jungle Book 2,'' the character designs are mostly the same, but they move slightly differently (most notably Mowgli, who is a lot more agile and often sports some animal-like movements he completely lacked in the original), the "hard scratchy outline" look from the original is replaced with the softer lines of modern Disney movies, and the jungle is overall a lot more lush and colorful.
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Baloo was really supposed to only be a bit part in the original movie, but Walt Disney was so impressed with Phil Harris's vocal performance that the bear was promoted to a major character.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: {{spoiler|Mowgli leaves for the man-village, and is now with his people. But Baloo is absolutely heartbroken, with Bagheera reassuring him that Mowgli is safer now. In the end, [[Heartwarming Moments
* [[Big Bad]]: Shere Khan.
* [[Big Friendly Dog]]: Two members of Mowgli's wolf family. In the beginning of the film we see them tackle Mowgli and give his face a good licking.
Line 41:
* [[Cats Are Mean]]: [[Big Bad|Shere Khan's]] very name is enough to bring a chill down the other animals' spines. Bagheera however is a key protagonist and one of the [[Only Sane Man|most rational and benevolent characters]] in the jungle.
* [[Cats Are Snarkers]]: Bagheera the panther is easily the snarkiest character in the movie, and Shere Khan the tiger, though he doesn't get many lines, comes across as at least somewhat snarky as well.
{{quote|'''[[Too Dumb to Live|Mowgli]]:''' You don't scare me. I won't run from anyone.
'''Shere Khan:''' Ah, you have spirit for one so small. And such spirit is deserving of a sporting chance. Now, I'm going to close my eyes and count to ten. It makes the chase more interesting... [[Badass Boast|for me]]. }}
* [[Character Exaggeration]]: Between movies. Kaa's incompetence and cowardliness are greatly exaggerated in the second movie to the point where he becomes something of a [[Butt Monkey]], whereas in the first he was [[Nightmare Fuel|genuinely menacing]] yet constantly unsuccessful, and his general fear of Shere Khan (the same as everyone else) is exaggerated to not being able to form full sentences around him.
