Song turns against Su and helps to defeat her, taking over the Ladies.
Long before the franchise, Scorpion was once the Valley of Peace's best healer, skilled with the expertise of using medical herbs and experimental flowers that grew in the Valley's rich soil as cures for various sicknesses, such as the use of sun orchards as the cure for river-fever. One day, she stumbled upon a hypnosis potion and injected herself with it, poisoning her body and mind. She had the villagers under her spell until it was broken by Grand Master Oogway. Scorpion was exiled from the Valley of Peace, but stole the last sun orchid, which can be used to cure river fever. Many years later, Scorpion discovers Po and Monkey in her lair looking for the sun orchid in order to cure Tigress' river fever. She manages to capture Monkey and sting him with her hypnosis potion and then sent him to destroy Po. Upon making it into Scorpion's lair, Po tries to get in as Scorpion ends up throwing Monkey a sword. Po soon discovers that Monkey is under Scorpion's control. When Monkey comes into Scorpion's lair with an apparently defeated Po, Scorpion discovers that Po faked his death and broke her control over Monkey. Scorpion ends up attacking them and tries to sting Monkey until Po grabs her tail. Po and Monkey managed to send Scorpion into the wall tail first, trap Scorpion with their trick sneezes, and claim the sun orchid.
*'''Wu Kong''' (voiced by [[James Sie]]) is a [[golden snub-nosed monkey]], the older brother of Master Monkey, and the self-proclaimed Prince of Thieves. He has a strained relationship with his brother. Wu Kong appears in the episode "Monkey in the Middle," where he comes to the Valley of Peace to go on a crime spree across the village market.

*'''Meng Tao''' (voiced by [[Jim Meskimen]]) is a Tibetan antelope and the diplomat to the Emperor of China. When Po makes a rash vow to train the emperor's grandson in kung fu, the antelope informs him that breaking the vow would result in beheading every member of the Jade Palace. It was revealed that he wanted Lu Kang to fail, knowing that disgrace to the emperor's family would allow him to take the throne. Lu Kang, however, is successfully trained and manages to defeat Meng Tao in combat.
In "Love Stings," Scorpion gets Mr. Ping to fall in love with her because it is revealed that she also can cook. However, this is only as part of her revenge on Po and the Valley of Peace. She was using Mr. Ping because he is the person who is responsible for the Moon cakes for the Moon Cake Festival where all the members of the Valley of Peace will eat Moon cakes. Therefore, Scorpion with the help of Mr. Ping who loves her bakes the Moon cakes but she adds poison into them that renders the whole population into a dizzy-like state. However Po is able to battle her and defeat her. After Mr. Ping finds out about the treachery, he says they should see other people.
*'''General Tsin''' (voiced by [[R. Lee Ermey]]) is a yak and a retired war hero. Unhappy with his retirement, Tsin begins "collecting" villains around the Valley of Peace, subjecting them to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. Po evades the powder and frees the villains, who willingly team up with Po to get revenge.

*The '''Undertaker''' (voiced by [[Christopher McDonald]]) is a goat and the property caretaker of the local cemetary. In "The Po Who Cried Ghost," it is revealed that he has been using a mystical staff to raise an army of [[Jiangshi]]. Po snatches the staff and orders the Jiangshi to returnt ot he earth and be at peace.
In "The Most Dangerous Po," Scorpion is among the villains that were hunted by General Tsin and subjected to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. She is later rescued by Po, but escapes upon being repelled by Po.
*'''Ke-Pa''' (voiced by [[Alfred Molina]]) is the leader of all the demons from the Underworld, who was subdued by Oogway and the power of the Peach Tree. He takes the mortal guise of a [[Taihu pig]] and begins to gain his power back as the Peach Tree dies. Po is nearly killed when his Hero's Chi is stolen, but his powers are regained by a sapling that Shifu planted at the end of the first film, and he uses his power to defeat Ke-Pa.

*'''Master Ding''' (voiced by [[Enn Reitel]]) is a Taihu pig and a former kung fu master who used his spirit orbs to commit psychic attacks on innocent victims. When Po and Tigress accidentally release Ding's spirit orbs, they have to battle Ding's ghost.
===Croc Bandits===
*'''Heilang''' (voiced by [[Maurice LaMarche]]) is the leader of the Lin Kuei, a group of [[Tibetan wolf]] assassins and thieves. Trained from birth to steal expensive and powerful artifacts from Kung Fu masters, Heilang and the Lin Kuei attempt to steal the Phantom Orb and the Shadow Crown, two artifacts which make the wearer intangible or invisible. Both times, they are defeated by members of the Furious Five.
The '''Croc Bandits''' are a group of [[crocodile]]s who are the recurring but rather ineffectual antagonists in ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. Although their group was never referred to by an official name by its members, Po, Master Shifu, and the Furious Five often referred to them as Croc Bandits.
*'''Pai Mei''' (voiced by [[Clancy Brown]]) is an [[emperor tamarin]] and a rogue kung fu master. He was exiled by Master Shifu after attempting to overpower the emperor, but reappears in "Five is Enough." The Five defeat him, and Pai Mei is last seen falling off of a cliff.

*'''Mei Ling''' (voiced by [[Susanne Blakeslee]]) is a female [[red fox]], not to be confused with the snow leopard of the same name. A rogue kung fu master, Mei Ling was also Shifu's love interest until she refused to stop using her skills for thievery. Despite this, Shifu still harbors feelings for Mei Ling, and they reconnect after her redemption in "Crazy Little Ling Called Love."
====Fung====
*'''Kira Kozu''' (voiced by [[Tohoru Masamune]]) is a [[clam]] and former samurai who betrayed Yijiro and the Ishida Clan, becoming a [[Rōnin]] with plans to take over Japan. Po defeats Kira using the samurai methods taught to him by Yijiro.

| voice = [[John DiMaggio]]
*'''Madame Zhao''' (voiced by [[Gaille Heidemann]]) is a [[Rhim gazelle]] who tricked Po into visiting her if he ever needed food. She uses this to imprison him in an underground room, but was vanquished by Po and Ju-Long.

'''Fung''' is the leader of an unnamed group of Crocodile Bandits as seen in ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. Fung most often relies on weapons to fight his opponents, but has shown he knows some Kung Fu techniques, mostly in cases of defense. His family apparently makes terracotta warriors as it was once mentioned by Fung that he accidentally got a terracotta soldier glued onto his father's face with its removal leaving his father with a mustache on one side of his face.

In "Good Croc, Bad Croc," Fung saves Po from a pitfall and required a favor from Po later on. When it came to the favor, Po had to meet with Fung alone where Fung mentions that Jong Sung Jai Kai Chow had captured his brother. Po and Fung had to infiltrate Jong's castle with Po having to pull off a diversion. When Po runs into Fung, he states that he has his brother in a box as both of them flee. When Po returned to the Jade Palace, Master Shifu was waiting with two of Jong's guards. When Master Shifu hears from Po that he was only helping Fung rescue his brother from Jong, Master Shifu states that Fung doesn't have a brother and that the person he helped him abduct was Jong's son. Fung later meets up with the other bandits where he learns that Po had been apprehended by Jong's guards. Fung feels remorse for what had happened to Po and decides to return the box containing Jong's son. Upon Fung entering Jong's torture room disguised as a water buffalo guard, Fung freed Po and gave Jong his son back. Yet Po and Fung had to escape from Jong's palace when even Jong's son wants them severely dealt with.

In "Kung Fu Day Care," it was revealed that Fung had a younger cousin named Lidong who assisted him in the Croc Bandit's plot to capture Prince Zan and steal him back when Prince Zan ends up in the protective custody of Po and Tigress. In "The Most Dangerous Po," Fung is among the villains that were hunted by General Tsin and subjected to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. He is later rescued by Po, but escapes upon being repelled by Po. In "Enter the Dragon," he and his bandits were conscripted into serving the demon Ke-Pa, but not long after were captured by the Furious Five again upon his defeat at the hands of Po. "Terror Cotta" would see Fung temporarily give up being a bandit after yet another defeat at Po's hands and rejoin his father in the craft of making terra cotta warriors. Upon discovering his father's lost formula for bringing them to life, Fung returned to his bandit path briefly before being bullied by his father into creating an army so that they could conquer China. In the course of the ensuing battle with Po and Fung's old gang, who were serving as a backup Furious Five, it came out that Fung's father had lost the formula when he had spent years blaming it on an assistant who never really existed. After his father admitted that his own failures had led to his mistreatment of Fung, Fung realized that he had projected similar frustration on his gang members, who forgave and rejoined him-even though it meant going to prison.

In "Huge," Fung and his gang would return and seek to gain greater power through a magical growth potion, only to be halted by a jealous Lidong who was intent on retaining his size advantage over everyone. "The Break Up" saw Gahri temporarily resign from Fung's gang due to Fung's mistreatment of him, but Fung and Po teamed up to try to get Gahri back and Gahri later realized that he preferred being a bandit-though he wanted Fung to work on his temper. In "Croc You Like a Hurricane," Fung and his bandits had gained such a reputation for ineptitude that even the townspeople didn't take them seriously anymore. They were then approached by Shifu and trained in the art of Kung Fu, which they ended up using to help people out. As part of an effort to get the Furious Five and Po to take training more seriously, the Croc Bandits were revealed to have been trained as the heroes' replacements. Unfortunately, Fung and his cohorts turned to using their position for their own benefit, and became complacent about keeping up their training to stay in shape. They were thus defeated in a battle with the heroes, and Shifu then revealed the truth behind his ruse. In "Apocalypse Yao," Fung and Gahri were part of a group of villains who gathered to bid on Kung Fu secrets stolen from Master Yao by Taotie, but were defeated despite gaining two of the secrets for their own use.

====Gahri====

'''Gahri''' is a member of the Crocodile Bandits from ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. Fung frequently calls him "Gary," which Gahri gently corrects. Gahri is shown to be clumsy, apologetic, and often says that he has to go to the bathroom. In combat, Gahri is shown to be skilled in wielding various weapons including an axe.

In "The Most Dangerous Po," Gahri is among the villains that were hunted by General Tsin and subjected to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. He is later rescued by Po, but escapes upon being repelled by Po. Most other episodes feature him in a rather minor role, often frustrating Fung with his good grammar and manners. In "The Break Up," the two get into a fight after Fung once again demonstrates his incompetence as a bandit leader and Gahri irritates Fung with his manners, intelligence, and interests unlikely for a bandit. This leads to Gahri leaving the Croc Bandits and working at Mr. Ping's Noodle Shop, where he proves such an asset that Mr. Ping wants to adopt him. Fung and Po then join forces to get him fired-Fung wanting Gahri back as his right-hand man and Po wanting the crocodile out of his life-but Gahri ends up leaving of his own accord after tricking Constable Hu into thinking that Po and Fung hadn't committed an actual crime.{{Clear}}

====Lidong====

'''Lidong''' is Fung's younger cousin. He helped his cousin Fung and his Croc Bandits to capture Prince Zan from Po and the Furious Five for a share they would get from the ransom. He is a giant crocodile and is skilled in Kung Fu where he used his strength in combat against Tigress. Lidong eventually betrayed Fung and his Croc Bandits because he viewed his cousin and his group as losers. He was defeated by Tigress at the end of the episode.

In "The Midnight Stranger," the pig criminals that manipulated Constable Hu into banning Kung Fu enlisted Lidong to fight the Midnight Stranger. When it was discovered that Po was masquerading as the Midnight Stranger, Lidong attacked Po. Lidong and the pig criminals were defeated by Po and Constable Hu.

The episode "Huge" revealed that Lidong was a runt of a crocodile in his youth and was thus teased and tormented by others until hitting his fairly impressive growth spurt. As such, he is immensely proud of his size, and the idea of anyone surpassing him in this area is enough to enrage him and turn him against the other Croc Bandits. He attacked Mantis after the latter used a magic potion to grow even larger than him, and refused to allow Fung and the other crocodiles to partake of the potion. He instead drank some himself, attacking the village and later battling Mantis after the master consumed even more potion to try and match Lidong in a battle of giants. However, Mantis recognized his folly and drank an antidote that restored him to normal size, and then went down Lidong's throat to attack him from the inside. He also dumped out the rest of the antidote inside Lidong's stomach, causing Lidong to shrink down to a fraction of his original size.

While Lidong is stated as a [[mugger crocodile]], his long snout gives him a close resemblance to a [[gharial]] or a [[false gharial]].

===Qidan Clan===
The '''[[Khitan people|Qidan]] Clan''' are a group of [[water buffalo]] warriors that have fought Po and the Furious Five on different occasions. They were also known to have fought against the Emperor's army in the past.

====Temutai====

'''Temutai''' is the Warrior-King of the Qidan Clan. He has claimed to have beaten every Kung Fu Master in the land. Master Tigress mentioned that his Kung Fu was strong enough to rip his opponents in half without even touching them. He has a habit of yelling the last word in each of his sentences.

He first appeared in "The Princess and the Po" where Po, Master Tigress, and Master Mantis had to bring Princess Mei Li to him in order to achieve peace between the Qidan Clan and Princess Mei Li's kingdom. Once a princess is given to Temutai, she ends up becoming his servant. When Po didn't want Temutai to get Princess Mei Li, he offered to challenge him to a fight to determine the fate of Princess Mei Li. When none of Po's moves can faze Temutai, Po gets an idea from Princess Mei Li and uses the same moves that she used on him to take down Temutai. Temutai admitted defeat and ensured peace between Mei Li's people and the Qidan. As a last act, he had rice balls prepared for Po and the others when they left as per their request.

In "Owl Be Back," Po found Temutai and his warriors fighting the Furious Five in the Jade Palace. This time, Po was fast enough to evade Temutai's attacks. Po manages to use the Thundering Wind Hammer to send Temutai flying into the mountainside. Temutai shouted to Po to declare that fight a draw.

In "The Kung Fu Kid," Temutai and his Qidan Clan are invited to a Peace Jubilee. Temutai enters his nephew Jing Mei into the children Kung Fu competition where he fights a Kung Fu prodigy named Peng. Temutai was not pleased that his nephew was defeated by Peng. Temutai wants to have Peng to train with the Qidan Clan opposed to Po wanting Peng to train at the Jade Palace. Po's argument with Temutai ends up disrupting the Peace Jubilee causing Master Shifu to break it up. Temutai gets angered at the fact that Peng wants to train with Po. After Po tells Peng that he is no longer needed, Peng decides to prove himself by destroying Temutai. Peng ends up fighting Temutai until Po arrived where their fight ends up causing the crowd to get out of control. Po manages to break up the fight upon telling Peng the truth. Po then does the ceremonial Tai Chi with Peng and Temutai.

In "My Favorite Yao," Temutai and his Qidan troops set out to capture Master Yao to interrogate him for his secrets. The abduction proved easier than anticipated owing to Yao, being impulsively released from his box by Shifu, began to run amok through the village with childish delight at all the sensations he denied himself for 65 years. However, the goat refused to cooperate and found even death threats an entertaining novelty. Eventually, Shifu and Po managed to rescue him with his help of his magic to stun Temutai and his troops into stillness.

In the episode "In With the Old," Temutai and his Qidan troops took advantage of the Furious Five's absence for a training session to invade the Jade Palace and capture Shifu in an inescapable death trap in order to force him to surrender the Helmet of the Invincible Thunder Kick. Shifu refused and Temutai searched the Palace himself. Meanwhile, Po liberated the Palace with the help of Mr. Ping and the elderly but still formidable masters Mrs. Gow and Mr. Yeung. Eventually, Po found Temutai, but was unable to stop him from entering the storage room which had a wide variety of magic helmets. The warriors raced to search for the desired helmet, but Temutai was the one who eventually gained it. However, Po managed to defeat Temutai by tossing the Helmet of Your Own Worst Enemy on top of the Helmet of the Invincible Thunder Kick and Temutai was magically compelled to kick himself out of the Palace and out of the area in defeat.

In "The Most Dangerous Po," Temutai is pursued and chased by the minions of General Tsin. Temutai is then subjected to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. He is later rescued by Po, but escapes upon being repelled by Po.

In "Master and the Panda," Temutai and the Qidan Clan unearth the Gong Lu Medallion, which grants him more power as he plots to conquer China and the Moon. Temutai then attacks the Jade Palace and takes out Master Shifu and the Furious Five. Po even tries to fight Temutai only to be sent flying out of the Jade Palace. Po returns and fights Temutai in order to get the Gong Lu Medallion off him. Peng joins the fight and removes the Gong Lu Medallion from Temutai. Po and Peng then send Temutai flying out of the Jade Palace.

In "Invitation Only," Po fights Temutai and makes him get away upon hearing the gong for lunch. Temutai later plans to crash the banquet of Upper Head District Chief Superior Superintendent Chang. Temutai is told by his Qidan warriors that he wasn't invited to the banquet. Temutai learns that Po wasn't also invited and plans to crash the banquet. Temutai has his soldiers surround the building where the banquet is being held. Temutai then begins his attack on the banquet and immobilizes the Furious Five and Master Shifu with the bolos thrown by the Qidan warriors. When Po sneaks into the party, he runs into Temutai and attacks the Qidan warriors with Kung Fu, good manners, and etiquette. Po managed to defeat Temutai which impressed Superintendent Chang enough to invite Po to the banquet.

In "Mouth Off," Temutai comes to the Valley of Peace and demands that Po apologize to him, but Po is unable to do so on account of paralyzing his own vocal chords. When he finally regains the power of speech and apologies, Temutai is still furious, but is defeated by a new move Po has mastered through his experience with silence. He accepts Po's apologies and leaves.

====Jing Mei====

'''Jing Mei''' is Temutai's nephew. In "The Kung Fu Kid," Jing Mei was with his uncle and the Qidan Clan when they are invited to a Peace Jubilee. Temutai enters his nephew Jing Mei into the children Kung Fu competition where he fights a Kung Fu prodigy named Peng. Temutai fought Peng and was defeated by him; this frustrated Temutai, who commented that he should have brought Jing Mei's sister instead.

In "The Most Dangerous Po," Jing Mei is among the villains that were hunted by General Tsin and subjected to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. He is later rescued by Po, but escapes upon being repelled by Po. He shouts a lot, too much.

'''Taotie''' (Chinese for "Glutton") is a greedy warthog exclusive to ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. He is a mechanic who built the training hall in which the Furious Five train. Taotie and Master Shifu trained in combat together when they were younger up to the point where Master Shifu broke the tip of his left tusk during combat. Shifu, who was a friend of Taotie's back then, is shown helping him up. After building the training hall, he built a huge machine which included flame-throwers and throwing stars. He had a disagreement with Master Shifu and Grand Master Oogway about having machines surpass Kung Fu. Taotie left and vowed to get revenge on Master Shifu one day. Many years later in the episode "Sticky Situation," Po ended up seeking out Taotie to repair the training hall that he accidentally broke. Behind Po's back, Taotie reassembled the parts of the training hall into a machine that he uses in his revenge plot on Master Shifu. After the Furious Five were defeated, only Master Shifu was left and Po saved him by clogging the gears of Taotie's machine enough for it to break. Taotie managed to get away.

In "Fluttering Finger Mindslip," Taotie discovers that the Furious Five have lost their memory after being exposed to Po's move. While Po and Master Shifu are away, Taotie took the opportunity to use this to his advantage by having them attack Master Shifu and Po upon their return. When the Furious Five regain their memory, they attacked Taotie though allowing him to get away again.

In "Big Bro Po," Taotie uses his new Iron Claws of Doom harness to attack Po and the Furious Five. Taotie's Iron Claws of Doom fails when Bian Zao fails to lubricate the claws. Taotie is defeated and is taken away to Chorh-Gom Prison leaving Bian Zao alone. Taotie is later visited by Po and Bian Zao who states that his father's plans take up most of the time together. Taotie convinces Bian Zao to make a bunch of cakes that would help him break out of Chorh-Gom Prison. When Bian Zao is unable to make the visit to Chorh-Gom Prison, Po ends up making the deliveriy to Taotie's cell not knowing that the final component of the Iron Claws of Doom is in it. With the Iron Claws of Doom rebuilt and lubricated, Taotie escapes from Chorh-Gom Prison. Taotie ends up attacking the Jade Palace stating to Bian Zao that they will do a sporting activity afterwards. After firing the chains at the Furious Five and Master Shifu, Taotie ends up fighting Po. When it came to a stalemate between Po and Taotie, Bian Zao ends up using a flying contraption to pick up Taotie and ends up knocking off the lubrication hose. Both of them managed to get away again as Po claims that he brought Taotie and Bian Zao's family back together. In "The Most Dangerous Po," Taotie is among the villains that were hunted by General Tsin and subjected to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. He is later rescued by Po, but escapes upon being repelled by Po.

In "Bosom Enemies," Taotie uses a knife stand machine to attack Po which ends up failed. Taotie ends up in a nervous breakdown following his defeat and Po accidentally ripping off his pants. Bian Zao later turns to Po to get Taotie back to normal. Taotie ends up seeing the light and Po plans to make Taotie a good guy by having him make crime-fighting gadgets while having some special nunchucks made for Po. When the Furious Five arrive, Taotie ends up showing off the special nunchucks as Po states that Taotie has changed. Taotie commented that his old friend Goatie, his parents, and the Cart Wash Manager turned against him. When the Furious Five leave vowing to come after Taotie if he hasn't changed, Po states to Taotie that he can have Taotie make weapons for the Furious Five with Po secretly taking measurements of the Furious Five. Po comments that Taotie can make the best crime-fighting assistant to the Furious Five. After Po leaves upon handing him the measurements of the Furious Five for the weapons needed to fit the Furious Five's talents, Taotie ends up snapping out of his good side as the measurements to make a machine. The next day, Taotie attacks Po and the Furious Five with the Adapto-Bot, which can copy their abilities. Taotie's Adapto-Bot receives a magnifying glass from Po through Bian Zao and ends up using it to distract the Adapto-Bot while Po uses his nunchucks to throw the Adapto-Bot off balance and then destroys it. Po thanks Taotie for helping him out as he quotes "What are Friends For." Yet Taotie and Bian Zao end up returned to Chorh-Gom Prison as Taotie works on the designs of his next invention to use on Po.

In "The Maltese Mantis," Taotie and Bian Zao were attending the Festival of Figurines where they are unpacking the figurines of Taotie's inventions. Though Bian Zao was very doubtful that people would buy figurines of his father, Taotie was confident that he would make a fortune once the fans saw the power of his figurines Bian Zao eventually asked his father for some money so he could go and buy something that wasn't "lame." Bian Zao would eventually discover the paralyzed Mantis and became intrigued when he spotted the "figure's" eyes moving. Po and Master Shifu learned from Bian Zao about where they can find Taotie. Po and Master Shifu confronted Taotie who refused to give Mantis up...especially after Po unwisely revealed that Mantis would become permanently paralyzed in a matter of minutes. Taotie then attempts to make a break for it only for the skirmish between him, Po, and Master Shifu to make it onto the nearest stage. With help from the festival attendees, Po and Master Shifu cornered Taotie who ended up being beaten up by the attendees while Bian Zao gives Master Mantis back to Po and Master Shifu. While Master Shifu undoes the paralysis on Master Mantis, Bian Zao carried his beaten-up father away.

Taotie returned in "A Thousand and Twenty Questions," in which he approached Master Yao after failing to make his Sphere of Unerringly Accurate Acu-Pressure function properly. After doing so, he used the sphere to force Po, Shifu, and all the members of the Furious Five except Tigress act like puppets, but was defeated after Tigress approached Yao for a means of destroying the weapon. In "Apocalypse Yao," he created a machine capable of extracting information from the minds of others and turning it into cookies which, upon consumption, would grant that knowledge to the eater. He and Bian Zao used this to steal Master Yao's five greatest Kung Fu secrets, which they then endeavored to sell to the highest bidder. Taotie briefly employed one of the secrets himself, but later became repulsed with himself for employing Kung Fu when he had dedicated his life to proving the superiority of technology.

Taotie convinces Bian Zao to make a bunch of cakes that would help him break out of Chorh-Gom Prison. Bian Zao secretly goes through with his father's plans by sneaking the parts of the Iron Claws of Doom into every cake he made. Despite his father's claims, Bian Zao thinks that his father would not go by his word not to do any other than attack the Jade Palace. Bian Zao ends up confessing to Po about Taotie's plot. When it came to a stalemate between Po and Taotie, Bian Zao ends up using a flying contraption to pick up Taotie and ends up knocking off the lubrication hose. Both of them managed to get away as Po claims that he brought Taotie and Bian Zao's family back together.

In "Bosom Enemies," Bian Zao assists Taotie into using a knife stand machine to attack Po which ends up failing. Taotie ends up in a nervous breakdown following his defeat and Po accidentally ripping off his pants. Bian Zao later turns to Po to get Taotie back to normal. In "Apocalypse Yao," Bian Zao actually became intrigued by one of his father's schemes after Taotie invented a machine to steal Master Yao's secrets and sell them to the highest bidder.

'''Tong Fo''' (Chinese for "Pain Buddha") is a [[loris]] crime lord exclusive to ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]'' who speaks with an impersonation of [[Christopher Walken]]. He was known for once wielding the Sacred Hammer of Lei Lang and caused mass destruction with it. Tong Fo ended up defeated and was imprisoned in Chorh-Gom Prison. Before Tong Fo was incarcerated, he made a replica of the hammer and hid the real one in Camelback Mountain keeping its whereabouts a secret with the fake copy eventually finding its way at the Jade Palace. Po used the Shift Stone to assume the form of a goat criminal named Sheng in order to infiltrate Chorh-Gom Prison. Po got information from Tong Fo on where the real Sacred Hammer of Lei Lang was located. Tong Fo planned to break out of prison with the help of Fung and his Croc Bandits. Tong Fo learned that Sheng was actually Po in disguise and managed to trap Po in a cell and steal his Shift Stone which he used to disguise himself as a Chorh-Gom Guard and walk out of Chorh-Gom Prison. Arriving at Camelback Mountain, Tong Fo ran into Po as Master Tigress and Master Monkey arrived unaware that Sheng is actually Po in disguise. Tong Fo managed to obtain the Sacred Hammer of Lei Lang as the Croc Bandits arrived. In the ensuing conflict, the Sacred Hammer of Lei Lang was taken by a Croc Bandit that was actually Master Shifu in disguise. Tong Fo and the Croc Bandits were defeated.

In "Father Crime," Tong Fo enlisted Fung and his Croc Bandits in a plot to capture Master Shifu. This plot was thwarted by Po, Master Shifu, and Master Shifu's dad Shirong; the latter originally worked with Tong Fo to help him capture Po so that Tong Fo would forgive his debt, but later had a change of heart after his own son was taken captive. He would eventually return in "Mind Over Manners," which would expand on his family history: his grandfather Tong Lo once ruled China with the magical ability to read minds, but was driven insane by this talent. Tong Fo attempted to gain the same powers by capturing a lightning bolt with a magical sapphire, only for the sapphire to be destroyed and for Po to gain the powers instead. Tong Fo then attempted to steal the power from Po, but was thwarted and taken to prison. In "The Goosefather" Tong Fo learns that many of his minions have left his side to form a new gang under Po's father, whom Tong Fo initially perceives as a rival, and then a potential partner. Eventually he learns that Po's father is in fact a simple noodle-shop owner, but is defeated and sent back to prison. He would subsequently return in "Kung Fu Club," where he captured Peng's girlfriend Lian in order to force Peng to kill Po for him quoting Peng is Tai Lung's "bad-boy" nephew.

'''Fenghuang''' (Chinese for "Phoenix") is a [[Eurasian eagle-owl]] exclusive to ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. She was a member of the original Furious Five alongside Master Shifu, Master Snow Leopard, Master Rooster, and Master Elephant. Fenghuang became the strongest member of the Furious Five through a lot of training and even invented the Thundering Wind Hammer. As a result of being the strongest, she became power-hungry and evil. One day, Fenghuang decided she deserved to rule the Jade Palace instead of Grand Master Oogway, believing herself to be more powerful than him. She challenged Oogway to a fight for the Palace; Oogway anticipated this and had an owl-shaped cage built for this occasion. After a long and fierce fight, Fenghuang knew that she could not defeat Oogway and fled before she could be captured, taking refuge in the Northern Mountains.

Many years later, in "Owl Be Back," Po ended up in the Northern Mountains and ended up caught by Fenghuang when he was falling. When Fenghuang learns that Grand Master Oogway is dead, she flies off to the Jade Palace. Master Shifu and the Furious Five face her, but she easily defeats them. When Po returns, she convinces him to turn evil and orders him to kill Shifu. Po uses a trick knife to fool Fenghuang into thinking that he had actually killed Master Shifu and then placed Fenghuang into the owl-shaped cage. As Fenghuang's cage is being towed away to Chorh-Gom Prison, she vows to escape and have her revenge on Po.

In "Crane on a Wire," Fenghuang crashes Po's Furious Five auction where she attacks Po and the Furious Five which resulted in Master Crane getting stuck in the wall. When Po discovered that Fenghuang's talons can't shred iron, Po and the other Furious Five were able to use the iron objects to break Fenghuang's talons. Fenghuang retreated with a broken wing. Upon news that Fenghuang is at the nearby mountains, Po and the Furious Five had to go confront her without Master Crane. Po and four of the Furious Five had a hard time fighting Fenghuang. After some encouragement from Zeng, Master Crane caught up with Po and helped to fight Fenghuang. Master Crane fought with Fenghuang in the sky over the village which ended with Master Crane and Po causing Fenghuang to crash to the ground in defeat.

In "A Stitch in Time," Fenghuang finds out about the Shuyong seeds that Po had found and steals some of them in order to learn some time-based moves. Upon managing to steal them and grow her own Shuyong seeds, Fenghuang started going back in time to prevent the birth of Master Shifu and the Furious Five. When she planned to go back in time to prevent Po's birth, Po grabbed onto Fenghuang with the resulting battle causing the Shuyong seeds to fall and send both of them back to the beginning of time where they find themselves before the Shuyong Tree. Upon the Shuyong Tree judging Po and Fenghuang even after they bested the Shuyong Tree's guardians, the Shuyong Tree deemed Po worthy of using its fruit and the Shuyong Tree used its powers to send Fenghuang into oblivion. Afterwards, Po restored time to the way it was and burned the Shuyong seeds except for one that he didn't notice.

Fenghuag later returned in "The First Five" when her former teammates came together for a reunion at Po's invitation. It is revealed that prior to her departure from the group they defeated the demon Xi'an, but Shifu dropped the demon's mighty sword into the volcano before they could claim it. When the sword reappears years later, Fenghuang is released from prison-though manacled-by her former teammates to help them recover it in exchange for her freedom. Fenghuang later destroys the sword, and is freed after Po convinces the former Five to honor their agreement.

'''Master Junjie''' (Chinese for "Elite") is a [[red fox]] Kung Fu Master exclusive to ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. He is a member of the Sacred Onyx Council alongside Master Chao. He first appeared in "Sight for Sore Eyes," where he and Chao traveled to the Valley of Peace to evaluate Master Shifu's skills as the master of the Jade Palace. He held a grudge against Shifu when Grand Master Oogway chose Shifu to run the Jade Palace. He also holds a hatred towards Po, believing him to be unworthy of taking the title of Dragon Warrior, despite Po's success as the Dragon Warrior. Junjie plotted and succeeded into removing Master Shifu from his position by tricking Po into watching him and Shifu spar and use the Golden Lotus Clap, a move that renders the target blind. Junjie then fired the Furious Five and replaced them with a team of snow leopards. Because of this, the Furious Five turned their backs on Po. It was later revealed that Junjie had imprisoned Shifu and later did the same thing to Chao. While his Furious Five fought the actual Furious Five, Master Junjie fought against Master Po and was defeated. Master Shifu and the Furious Five were rehired while Junjie and his henchmen were apprehended to Chorh-Gom-Prison. It can also be implied that Junjie was also ousted from the Sacred Onyx Council for his actions.

In "Ghost of Oogway," Master Junjie posed as the ghost of Oogway in order to fool Master Po into letting his guard down by doing nothing in combat training and turn him and Shifu against each other. Once Po and Shifu were out of the palace, Junjie used his disguise to enter the Jade Palace and subdued the Furious Five. When Po returned, he found the Furious Five tied up as Junjie sheds his disguise. Junjie then unleashes his henchmen on Po. Things weren't looking good for the [[Giant panda|panda]], but in the nick of time, Master Shifu arrived and fooled Junjie by assuming the form of Oogway. While the Furious Five fought Master Junjie's henchmen, Master Po managed to successfully use the Tae Bow Chow to knock out Master Junjie. Junjie later returned in "Bride of Po," kidnapping the brother of a young goat maiden to force her into a marriage with Po intended to bring an end to Po's status as the Dragon Warrior so that Junjie could take over the Jade Palace. This plan was thwarted, however, and Po saved both siblings from Junjie and defeated him.

In "Crazy Little Ling Called Love," it was revealed that Shifu's ex-girlfriend Mei Ling attempted to steal from Junjie but was captured, and Junjie threatened to kill her and Shifu unless she stole the Crown of Heaven for him. This was later discovered by Po, who convinced Mei Ling to go along with the plan. After Junjie and his forces were defeated, he and Mei Ling were both sent to prison, the latter to pay her debt to society so that she could eventually be reunited with Shifu.

'''General Tsin''' is a character that is exclusive to ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]''. Once a well-known war hero throughout all of China, Tsin was forced into retirement after eliminating all of the country's villainous threats and became one of the Jade Palace's benefactors. The transition of all the threats eventually took its toll on his mind throughout the years.

As a result, he began a new hobby of "hunting and collecting" villains around the Valley of Peace where he subjected his victims to stiffening Zu Chao Powder. Some of his targets include Scorpion, Temutai, Fung, Gahri, Jing Mei, Taotie, and Bao.

When Po is invited to General Tsin's palace, he ends up taking part in a villain-stopping expedition, with Po unaware of Tsin's motives. This involved Tsin hunting his latest target Hundun. Po fought with Hundun while trying to warn him only for Tsin to defeat Hundun and add him to his collection, in which Po believes this to be wrong. When Po started to question Tsin's motives and mentality, Tsin ended up hunting Po. Po managed to evade Tsin, but doubled back following a vision revolving around Hundun speaking to him. During the fight with Po in his collection room, Tsin trapped Po in the Zu Chao Powder chamber where it was discovered that Po had reversed the powder's effects freeing the villains who then vowed to have General Tsin pay for what he did to them and they begin attacking him. Tsin fought the villains and proves to be more of a match to them until they start to win and are then repelled by Po. Although Tsin is sent to Chorh-Gom Prison, Shifu wasn't pleased that one of the Jade Palace's benefactors ended up incarcerated because of his actions. Po then states that now they can go after the villains that escaped from Tsin's palace.

In "Qilin Time," Tsin was released from Chorh-Gom Prison to start a new life and recover from his insanity. Po and Mr. Ping encounter Tsin, who is hunting the [[Qilin]]. At the end of the episode, Po and Mr. Ping were able to convince him that there was no Qilin and he was still crazy.

In "See No Weevil," Tsin returns, insane to a greater extent, having apparently married a pair of slippers. Tsin attacks a rice farm because evil Alien [[Rice weevil|Rice Weevils]] were using it to take over minds and conquer the Earth. The Furious Five defeated Tsin, and planned to use the Zu Chao Powder on him. Po freed him after he found out the Weevils were real, and infected the Five and Shifu. However, the entire town except Mr. Ping was infected, and Tsin quickly joined the ranks of the infected. Po defeated the weevils, and the experience restored Tsin's sanity who left for [[Korea]].

'''Ke-Pa''' is a dangerous dragon demon who first appeared in the ''[[Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness]]'' special "Enter the Dragon."

Ke-Pa was the ruler of all the demons from the Underworld. They ravaged all of China until Grand Master Oogway defeated the demons and sealed them away. Then Grand Master Oogway fought against Ke-Pa. When all hope seemed lost, the power of the Peach Tree ended up giving Grand Master Oogway the power to fend off Ke-Pa, known as "Hero's Chi".

In present day, Ke-Pa is in his mortal guise of an old pig retelling his tale to some crocodile and water buffalo criminals in a bar who ended up laughing at his tale. When some of the Peach Tree started to fall off, Ke-Pa began to regain his powers and beat up the criminals. Ke-Pa then headed to the Valley of Peace. Po pridefully tries to stop him, but Ke-Pa has proven himself more than a match for him. When the tree dies, Ke-Pa regains his full powers and because he learned that Po was the Dragon Warrior, Ke-Pa decides the most appropriate to take to defeat him would be an actual beast and assumes his true form of a huge, colorful Dragon. Ke-Pa tells Po and Shifu that if they don't surrender the Hero's Chi so he can release the demons, he will devour the villagers. Shifu tells him that he has the Hero's Chi and he harshly sends Po off for letting his selfishness get the best of him and forgetting to warn the villagers. However, Ke-Pa later finds out that Shifu is not the host of the Hero's Chi, but Po is. Ke-Pa crushes Po close to death, extracting the Hero's Chi and breaking the seal, thus releasing the demons. Po's Life Force and Chi are restored by the Peach Tree sapling that Shifu planted in the Kung Fu Panda first movie. Po managed to defeat the demons and reseal the remaining ones. Po then fights Ke-Pa and uses the Chi he has left to destroy the demon.

'''NOTE''': Because dragons are considered beneficent deities in oriental culture, it is made clear that Ke-Pa was not a true dragon, but a maniacal demon that could change his shape to any creature, including a monster. Demons in their true form, as seen in this episode are black, amorphous spirit-devils.

Many years later, Po and Tigress accidentally released Ding's Spirit Orbs which then left to Master Ding's prison. Once Po and Tigress arrive, they ended up having to deal with Ding's [[ghost]], who gives Po and Tigress a hard time. When Ding manages to possess Po in order to exit his prison, Tigress gained control of the Spirit Orbs as Ding can no longer control them since Po isn't good at focusing, which puts him at a disadvantage. Tigress uses the Spirit Orbs to enter Po's mind where she and Po fought against Ding. Po and Tigress were able to exorcise Ding's ghost from Po's body and return the Spirit Orbs to the Jade Palace.

A rogue Kung Fu master with skills that rival Shifu's, Mei Ling was also Shifu's love interest for an unspecified amount of time. Falling in love after their first confrontation, they quickly entered a relationship. However, Shifu broke off the relationship after Mei Ling refused to stop using her Kung Fu to steal.

In "Shifu's Ex", she returns to the Jade Palace, much to Shifu's dismay, causing him to panic hysterically and resort to hiding in a closet. Mei Ling though is wise to these avoidance tricks and easily finds him. She later uses the Zhou Deng Soul Gem to swap bodies with him during a kiss in order to manipulate Po and the Furious Five to rob an imperial convoy of precious jewels. However, this failed when Shifu (still in Mei Ling's body) revealed the deception and used the Soul Gem to swap back their respective bodies while they embraced in another kiss. After she was defeated by Po and the Furious Five, Mei Ling was arrested and sent to Chorh-Gom Prison, only to escape while being escorted there. Her escape delighted Shifu to no end revealing that even after the events she put him through, he still is in love with Mei Ling.

She reappears in "Crazy little ling called love" but this time as a redeemed villain. She starts the episode tricking Shifu into revealing the day when the Crown of Heaven was being transported to the Imperial Museum so that Master Jungjie could steal it along the way but she was only helping Jungjie because years ago he caught her stealing a silver sword from him and said that he would free her if someday she would help him complete a task or he would kill her and Shifu. This task is revealed to be the theft of the Crown of Heaven and when Shifu intends to steal the crown from the museum in order to protect Mei Ling from Jungjie, she sets a plan with Po and the Furious Five in order to apprehend Jungjie and save Shifu's honor, however Mei Ling turns herself to the Imperial Guards as Jungjie's conspirator in order to avoid Jungjie's revenge against her and Shifu. Upon seeing the sacrifice Mei Ling has done for him, Shifu realizes that she really loves him and they rekindle their romance and have a picnic in Mei Ling's cell in Chorh-Gom Prison.

Revision as of 18:22, 14 February 2021

The following is a list of characters from the DreamWorks animated film media franchise Kung Fu Panda, with their shorts and specials Secrets of the Furious Five, Kung Fu Panda Holiday, Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters, and Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Scroll, as well as the video games and TV show Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness and Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny.

Protagonists

Master Po Ping

Jack Black served as the voice actor for Po in the Kung Fu Panda movies.

Master Po Ping (voiced by Jack Black, Mick Wingert, and Eric Loomis) is the main protagonist of the Kung Fu Panda franchise. A kung fu fan and giant panda working at his adoptive father's noodle restaurant, Po is chosen by Grand Master Oogway as the legendary Dragon Warrior, a decision that angers Shifu and the Furious Five. When Tai Lung escapes from prison, Shifu uses food to motivate Po into mastering kung fu. He defeats Tai Lung in combat and is declared a master.

In Kung Fu Panda 2, Po learns that he was adopted by Ping after Lord Shen committed genocide against the giant pandas. The end of the film reveals that Po's biological father Li Shan is still alive, and he reunites with his son in Kung Fu Panda 3. When the undead warrior Kai steals the chi of the other kung fu masters, Po and Li create an army from the remaining giant pandas. After defeating Kai, Po has a spiritual reunion with Oogway, who informs Po that his journey as the Dragon Warrior has come full circle. He returns to the mortal world with his extended family.

Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness, which occurs between the first and second film, shows Po's greater development as a kung fu warrior and master after defeating Tai Lung, while the follow-up series, Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny, takes place after the events of the third film and shows Po in a mentor role to four young pandas. Po also appears in all short films and specials, as well as the video games.

Master Shifu

Master Shifu (voiced by Dustin Hoffman in the films and TV specials and Fred Tatasciore in the TV series and video games) is a red panda, the headmaster of the Jade Palace, and the trainer of the Furious Five. He joined the palace when his father, the con artist Shirong, abandoned him there. Later in life, Shifu adopted Tai Lung, and he did not acknowledge his own role in the snow leopard's turn to evil until after Po was deemed the Dragon Warrior.

After Tai Lung's defeat, Shifu becomes a more relaxed master to Po and the Five. By the time of the third film, he has retired from active teaching in order to focus on learning how to use chi, and he passes on the instructor mantle to Po. When Kai attacks the Jade Palace, Shifu is turned into a jade soldier and a member of Kai's army, but he is returned to normal when Po destroys Kai in the Spirit Realm.

Grand Master Oogway

Grand Master Oogway (voiced by Randall Duk Kim in the film and Legends of Awesomeness, Greg Baldwin in the video games, and Piotr Michael in The Paws of Destiny) was an elderly Galápagos tortoise, the senior headmaster of the Jade Palace before Shifu, and the founder of kung fu. In the first film, he is the one to choose Po as the Dragon Warrior, and his warmth and acceptance of Po serve as a foil to the strict and abrasive Shifu. He ascends to the Spirit Realm in the first film, but makes a cameo and flashback appearance in the second.

In the third film, it is revealed that he was once best friends with Kai, but that he banished his brother in arms to the Spirit Realm when Kai attempted to take the chi of the giant pandas. When Oogway ascended to the Realm, Kai bested him in a rematch and used his chi to return to the mortal realm. After Kai's defeat, Oogway reveals that he chose Po as the Dragon Warrior because a panda village healed him when he was badly injured in an ambush. Oogway tells Po that he is now a master of chi, and gives Po his jade staff.

Furious Five

The Furious Five are the supporting protagonists of the Kung Fu Panda franchise. The most skilled warriors in China, they are homages to the Five Animals Southern styles of Chinese martial arts: crane, viper, monkey, mantis, and tiger. While the Five initially dismissed Po as the Dragon Warrior, they grow to respect his courage and tenacity. In the Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness episode "Owl Be Back," it is revealed that a previous incarnation of the Five existed, made up of Shifu, Fenghuang, Master Rooster, Master Snow Leopard, and Master Elephant.[1]

Master Tigress

Master Tigress (voiced by Angelina Jolie in the films) is a South China tiger and the founder of the Furious Five. She was initially the most resentful of Po when he was chosen to be the Dragon Warrior instead of her, and the most vocal in her contempt. When Tigress overheard Po telling Shifu that he would never be able to defeat Tai Lung, Tigress took it upon herself to intercept the leopard, and managed to counter most of his attacks. When Po defeats Tai Lung, Tigress is the first to acknowledge him as a master of kung fu.

Tigress' backstory is largely revealed in a series of television specials. In Secrets of the Furious Five, it is revealed that she was an orphan living in the Bao Gu Orphanage, feared by the other children for her temper, and she taught herself control by learning to play dominoes. She was adopted by Shifu, and in Secrets of the Scroll, it is revealed that Shifu disapproved of her aggression and strength, wanting her to emphasize his control and precision. Oogway, on the contrary, encouraged Tigress to grow into her own.

Master Viper

Master Viper (voiced by Lucy Liu in the films and TV series) is a green tree viper with two small lotus flowers on top of her head. Although she was born with ineffective venomous fangs, she compensates with her strength and precision. Viper is the most outwardly compassionate and maternal member of the Five, and is the only one not to mock Po when he first joins the Jade Palace.

In Secrets of the Furious Five, she is revealed to be the daughter of Great Master Viper, who relied on his venomous fangs to protect the village where they lived. The Great Master hoped that his daughter would carry on his legacy, and was distraught at her lack of fangs. Viper instead took up ribbon dancing at a young age, and showed a proficiency for it. When a gorilla bandit came to the Autumn Moon Festival and shattered the Great Master's fangs using venom-proof armor, Viper used her dancing to tie the bandit up in her ribbon. Only then was her father satisfied with his daughter becoming a warrior on her own terms.

Master Monkey

Master Monkey (voiced by Jackie Chan in the films) is a Gee's golden langur with a thick Chinese accent, and the most humorous of the Five. He was the first to recognize Po's determination, and the first to refer to Po by his name. Unlike the other members of the Five, Monkey prefers to use a weapon in combat, and the staff that he uses is associated with the legendary Monkey King Sun Wukong.

Monkey has an older brother, Wu Kong, who is the self-proclaimed "King of Thieves," and their mother died from the shock and grief of seeing her sons fight. Nevertheless, Monkey was an adolescent trickster, who humiliated the members of his village with pranks. Oogway put an end to Monkey's trickery, using his shell to hide from his attacks, and the tortoise encouraged Monkey to use his skills for good, putting him on the path to kung fu mastery.

Master Mantis

Master Mantis (voiced by Seth Rogen in the films) is a Chinese mantis and the smallest of the Five. He is, however, the strongest proportional to his size, and can move at superhuman speeds. When Po's girth was cited as a reason why he could not be a kung fu master, Mantis was the first to declare that size did little to define a warrior, and that it could be used to one's advantage.

When he was younger, Mantis was impatient, feeling that the world was too slow for him. On a mission to reclaim wool coats from a group of crocodile bandits, he was captured due to his overconfidence, and inability to listen when one of the villagers tried to warn him of the bandits' traps. Mantis was locked in a cage for days, and, forced to sit and wait for something to happen, he was able to develop the patience needed to devise a plan of escape.

Master Crane

Master Crane (voiced by David Cross in the films) is a black-necked crane and the most patient of the Five. He serves as a scout and lookout in combat situations, as well as a means of transport for the other members of the Five. Should any of the Five fall from a great height, Crane will appear to break their fall.

Before joining the Five, Crane was the janitor at the Lee Da Kung Fu Academy, where he was looked down upon due to his slender build. However, Mei Ling, the top student, saw the skills that Crane used when cleaning the academy, and convinced him to try out for the school. While his nerve got the better of him at first, Crane soon gained the confidence to pass the obstacle course and gain admission into the academy.

List of Kung Fu Masters

A series of kung fu masters appear in the franchise, many of which only appear in passing within the TV show or comics.

Masters' Council of Gongmen City

The Masters' Council are a group of renowned Kung Fu Masters who are the protectors of the metropolis of Gongmen City. They have governed the city after the parents of Lord Shen had passed on.

Master Thundering Rhino

Master Thundering Rhino (voiced by Victor Garber in Kung Fu Panda 2 and Paul Scheer in Secrets of the Masters) is a Javan rhinoceros and the leader of the Masters' Council that protects Gongmen City. His father is rumored to be the Legendary Master Flying Rhino, and Rhino became legendary in his own right by slaying the Ten Thousand Serpents n the Valley of Woe. He frequently collaborated with Master Ox and Master Croc to subdue threats to China, and used the Cloud Hammer in battle.

Rhino was among those first targeted by Lord Shen. When Shen defeats Ox and Croc, Rhino breaks his weapons and warns him that he is no match for kung fu. Shen agrees, but then reveals his cannon. It is implied that the first cannon blast kills Master Rhino off-screen.

Master Storming Ox

Master Storming Ox (voiced by Dennis Haysbert) is another Master of Gongmen City and a member of the Masters' Council. He is an expert strategist who was trained by Master Thundering Rhino after sneaking into the Royal Palace. When Shen storms the Palace, Ox is imprisoned in Gongmen City Jail. He initially refuses to join the Five, believing that if he does, Shen will destroy everything, but he changes his mind at Shifu's persuasion. After Shen and Thundering Rhino's death, Master Storming Ox becomes the new leader of the Master's Council, and the new king of Gongmen City.

Master Croc

Master Croc (voiced by Jean-Claude Van Damme in Kung Fu Panda 2 and Tony Leondis in Secrets of the Masters) is a saltwater crocodile, another Master of Gongmen City, and a member of the Masters' Council. He was once the head of the Wool Stealing Crocodile Bandits of Crocodile Island until Master Thundering Rhino convinced him to mend his ways. When Lord Shen attacks the Royal Palace, Master Croc is defeated and imprisoned in Gongmen City Jail.

Flying Rhino is a Kung Fu Master who is the father and trainer of Thundering Rhino. He once used an armor in a bloody fight against the warriors of the Guangdong Province. Although he triumphed in that battle, his armor still bears the battle scars caused by the butterfly knives used by the lizard assassins that managed to get close to him. There was also a reference that Flying Rhino has also trained Vachir and had recommended him to Oogway to be in charge of Tai Lung's incarceration at Chorh-Gom Prison as Flying Rhino stated that Vachir was brave enough, strong enough, and ruthless enough for the job.

His armor is on display at the Jade Palace as seen in Kung Fu Panda.

Great Master Viper is a Kung Fu Master who is the father of Master Viper and the last known leader of the Viper Clan. Not much is known about Great Master Viper's past before the birth of his daughter Viper. What is known about him according to Po is that he was the greatest known leader and warrior of the Viper Clan, as well as the sole protector of Viper's home village, highly dependent on his "Poison Fang Technique," with which he used his venomous fangs to fell his enemies. Given that his venom was deadly enough to fell fifteen gorilla warriors and a mid-sized crocodile, he quickly built up his legacy and became greatly feared by his enemies.

As is shown in Secrets of the Furious Five, Great Master Viper was shocked when Viper was born without fangs, prompting him to not pay her much attention as she grew up since he thought there was no point teaching her kung fu if she couldn't use "Poison Fang". Consequently, Viper instead took up ribbon dancing to cheer her father up. She finally got her chance to prove herself when a ferocious gorilla bandit took the precaution of wearing armour and broke Great Master Viper's fangs, with Viper then tying the bandit up with her ribbon and saving her father's life.

Master Chao (Chinese for "Super") is a desert monitor Kung Fu Master amongst the hierarchy of the Sacred Onyx Council. He appeared in the episode "Sight for Sore Eyes" where he and Master Junjie visited Shifu at the Jade Palace to determine his qualifications as Master of the Jade Palace. He, Shifu, and Junjie ended up doing their usual sparring with Po secretly watching under Junjie's request where Junjie used a Golden Lotus Clap which Shifu and Chao turned away which resulted in Po being blinded. After it was revealed that Po had watched the play after he botched up a group technique, making Shifu undo the effects of the Golden Lotus Clap, Master Chao was displeased that Po disobeyed Shifu's orders and ended up replacing Shifu with Junjie. When Chao returned to check up on Junjie, he overheard Junjie's intentions in his talk with Po and caught Junjie in the act. Po and Chao were imprisoned in the same cell as Shifu by Junjie's Furious Five. After Po freed Shifu and Chao and defeated Junjie, Chao gave Shifu his job back and commended Po for doing the right thing despite the risk, while Junjie and his Furious Five are remanded to Chorh-Gom Prison.

In "Kung Shoes," Chao is called to the Jade Palace when Po (who was wearing special shoes that enhance Kung Fu abilities) has accomplished the Three Needles move. It turns out that Shifu, the Furious Five, and Chao, knew about the shoes when they started to glow. When the shoes start to go out of control, Chao had to help Shifu and the Furious Five in order to get the shoes off of Po. After the panda got the shoes off and sliced them, the shoes multiplied and possessed everyone present. Po then uses the water to neutralize the shoe's effects. Shifu thanks Chao for his help as Chao states that this was the first time he has seen anyone perform the Three Needles Move.

Master Yao (Chinese for "Brilliant") is a blackbuck Kung Fu Master renowned for his outstanding intellect. Shifu idolizes him and commented that Yao is known for being "the greatest Kung Fu mind this world has ever known." He was credited as the first person to unlock the mystery of the Secret Scroll at the age of 5. At age 6, he invented pruning and was one of the few people who know how an abacus works. But with a great mind came a great sacrifice. Yao spent a lifetime meditating alone with no contact to the outside world and became the keeper of the secrets of Kung Fu. In his mind, Yao holds unimaginable knowledge and the power of the universe.

Sometime later, Yao comes out of hiding to visit the Valley of Peace. After years of being cooped in constant meditation and isolated from the rest of the world, Yao was cheerful and glad to experience life again. He gets overly excited at every little thing that surrounds him because of his long cut-off from the world. Po and Shifu had to protect him when Temutai and the Qidan Clan target Yao to learn the secrets of Kung Fu. Even though his physical strengths are weak, he is able to use Kung Fu with his mind. It was with this talent that he was able to free Po and Shifu and knock the entire Qidan Clan unconscious.

Mrs. Gow is an elderly goat who was once a Kung Fu Master that was known back then as "Gow of the Hundred Stars" and was a companion of Mr. Yeung. Her nickname comes from the fact she could throw razor sharp stars into her opponents.

She first appeared in the episode "In With the Old" where she and Mr. Yeung play mahjong with Mr. Ping. When Mr. Ping suggests that she and Mr. Yeung help Po save Shifu and defend the Jade Palace, Po dismisses them because of their age, remarking that Mrs. Gow was "older than rope" and that Mr. Yeung was even older than she was. However, they end up coming to the aid of Po when Temutai and the Qidan Clan plot to steal the Helmet of the Invincible Thunder Kick. Mrs. Gow used her dental prosthetic and not her stars, but still proved to be a very capable fighter despite her advanced years and reprimands Po by commenting that she is like "rope, you know, that thing that is very useful."

Duke Bingjun accused Shengqi of assault and had him incarcerated in Chorh-Gom Prison. Shengqi later broke out of Chorh-Gom Prison and had a bounty placed on him.

The inhabitants of Muchang are very protective of him when Po takes Constable Hu's offer to bring him in. When Po finds Shengqi and fights him, Po fights him and doesn't believe his side of the story. Po catches up to Shengqi on top of the mountain and fights him again. Po still doesn't believe him until he sees half of a necklace that was on the neck of a girl (who turned out to be Xiao Niao) that attended the festival. When Po is given the reward from the Rhino Guards, he throws the reward towards the Rhino Guards and gets Shengqi away. Po takes Shengqi to the Valley of Peace to pose as a stranded ladder salesman where Constable Hu tries to capture Shengqi.

In "Shoot the Messenger," Po accidentally signs the Dragon Warrior on a scroll Kweng was carrying that was actually a peace treaty between the Gorilla Clan led by Can-Shoo and the Gorilla Clan led by Cheen-Gwan. Po ended up getting the help from Lam and Tigress to get the peace treaty back from Kweng for fear of a war between the Gorilla Clans that can threaten all of China. The fight between Po, Tigress, and Kweng escalated at the Kung Fu Express headquarters where the other members of the Kung Fu Express end up taking part in the battle. When the treaty is finally delivered to Can-Shoo and Cheen-Gwan by Kweng, they were surprised that the Dragon Warrior's name is on it as they are big fans of Po.

Master Mugan (Chinese for "Wood") is a goldfish Kung Fu Master who resides at the Garnet Palace as its headmaster. She is very strict and greatly dislikes Po as she believes that he is undisciplined and was chosen by a random quirk of fate. She also secretly views her students as little more than possessions for her to do with as she will, as she stated Tigress was never allowed to leave once she joined her, which was further evidenced by the fact that the previous warrior she had trained was forced to train until he was broken physically and spiritually by her. She came to the Jade Palace in "A Tigress Tale," where she wanted to seek a new Kung Fu master to join her at the Garnet Palace, following the failure of her previous warrior Wu Yong. Tigress went with Mugan and showed off her Kung Fu talents and Mugan stated that she was a powerful warrior.

When Tigress went to acknowledge the compliment, Mugan stated that it wasn't a compliment. She informed Tigress that her focus in Kung Fu was precision, and demonstrated so by jumping out of her fish tank and using the bowls around her Kung Fu dojo to jump and eventually cut Tigress with one of her razor-sharp fins. Tigress was impressed with Mugan's skills and began her training, but could not seem to impress Mugan, as Mugan was never satisfied with anyone. When Tigress tried to leave, Mugan refused to let her go and instead imprisoned her and decided to break her, as she had with her previous student. When Po went to the Garnet Palace to see Tigress, Mugan lied to Po that she did not want to see him. Eventually, Po broke into the Garnet Palace and freed Tigress, only for them to be stopped by Mugan. Then Tigress informed Mugan that there was more to life than Kung Fu. Outraged, Mugan attacked Po and Tigress, but was defeated when Po and Wu Yong knocked all the pillars holding her water over, trapping her in the central tank.

Master Elephant

Master Elephant (voiced by Nolan North) is an Indian elephant and an original member of the original Furious Five, along with Shifu, Fenghuang, Master Snow Leopard, and Master Rooster.

Shifu's adopted son, Tai Lung was the only student to be taught the Nerve Attack, and he believed that his destiny was to become the Dragon Warrior. When Oogway sensed the darkness in Tai Lung's heart and refused him the title, he felt betrayed and laid siege to the city, only finally defeated by Master Oogway. After his defeat, Tai Lung was sent to Chorh-Gom Prison for twenty years.

When Zeng arrives at the prison to order an increase in security, Tai Lung uses one of the goose's fallen feathers to pick the locks on his restraints and escape. He defeats the Furious Five in battle and storms the Jade Palace in search of the Dragon Scroll. He finally sees the Scroll, but does not understand the symbolism of its blank, reflective surface. Tai Lung is ultimately defeated when Po utilizes the Wuxi Finger Hold. In Kung Fu Panda 3, we learn that the Finger Hold sends its opponent to the Spirit Realm, indicating that Tai Lung now resides there. After his defeat, he continues to be seen in flashback sequences.

Lord Shen

Lord Shen (voiced by Gary Oldman) is a leucistic Indian peafowl and the main antagonist of Kung Fu Panda 2. He was originally a prince of Gongmen City who became interested in gunpowder, wondering if it could be used for warfare. His parents, worried by his obsession, visited the Soothsayer, who told them that if he continued too far down this path, he would be stopped by "a warrior of black and white." Shen, eavesdropping on this conversation, deduces that the warrior in question would be a panda, and led his wolf guards into a massacre against the giant panda population to avert the prophecy. He was subsequently exiled from the family palace.

Thirty years later,[2] Shen returns to Gongmen City with an arsenal of cannons. He summons the Masters' Council to a duel, where he defeats Storming Ox and Croc, and kills Thundering Rhino with a cannonball shot. He originally thinks Po a simpleton and not the warrior of prophecy, but comes to fear him and attempts to kill him with a cannon blast. Po returns, having been nursed back to health by the Soothsayer and having achieved inner peace, and redirects the cannonballs fired at him. When the resulting melee damages the cannon wreckage, Shen refuses to move out of the way and is crushed to death by the weapon.

Kai

Kai (voiced by J. K. Simmons) is a Chinese Black Pied cattle and the main antagonist of Kung Fu Panda 3. He was originally a friend and brother-in-arms to Grand Master Oogway, and was taught how to use chi by the pandas of the Secret Panda Village. Kai became power-hungry with the knowledge, and learned hwo to take chi from other rather than give it, forcing Oogway to banish him to the Spirit Realm. Kai spent the next five hundred years collecting the chi of every kung fu master who ended up in the Spirit Realm before challenging Oogway to a duel.

Kai and his jade warriors return to the Mortal World and begin stealing the chi of the living kung fu masters, including all members of the Furious Five but Tigress, who escapes to warn Po what is coming. When Kai and his "Jombies" reach the Secret Panda Village, Po attempts to use the Wuxi Finger Hold on him, but it does not work on a spirit. Po instead uses the move on himself to bring both of them back to the Spirit Realm, where the hateful yak becomes overloaded with chi, triggering a spiritual explosion and freeing the masters whose chi he stole.

Wu Sisters

Su Wu, Wing Wu, and Wan Wu (voiced by Sumalee Montano) are a trio of snow leopard sisters appearing in Secrets of the Masters. Once the sisters escaped prison, where they were kept for a series of crimes, they set out to unite the various crime families of China, which prompted Oogway to form an alliance with Thundering Rhino, Storming Ox, and Croc in order to defeat them. The Wu sisters also appear as an enemy team in Kung Fu Panda: The Game, and as minions of Tai Lung in Legendary Warriors.

Boar

Boar (voiced by Jayden Lund) is the main antagonist of Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Scroll. A renowned warrior, Shifu intended to stop him, but was bedridden due to accidental food poisoning, and Tigress went in her place. When mimicking Shifu's style of combat, Tigress initially faltered, but when the rest of the Five came to her aid, Tigress abandoned Shifu's kung fu style in favor of her own, and managed to defeat him. Boar's attack and subsequent defeat inspired the creation of the Furious Five, and the story of their triumph sparked Po's love of kung fu.

Kung Fu Panda character

In-universe information
SpeciesChinese goose[3]

Mr. Ping is Po's adoptive father, who runs the most popular noodle shop in the Valley. He considers his work deeply fulfilling, and hopes that his son will continue to operate the shop, wishing to share with him the family's secret recipe to great noodles. When he believes his son is ready, he informs him that there is actually no secret ingredient, and that things are special if someone believes them to be. This piece of advice leads Po to understand the cryptic message of the Dragon Scroll, which makes him the Dragon Warrior and allows him to fulfill his destiny.

Po and his father share a deep mutual love and respect. This shows in how Po cannot bear to disappoint his father about his differing ambitions while Mr. Ping respects his son's decisions enough to neither protest nor interfere after the panda is dubbed the Dragon Warrior. At Po's triumph over Tai Lung, all of Mr. Ping's doubts of his son's destiny vanish as he proclaims his pride in Po to the world as they embrace.

Furthermore, the end credit graphics indicate that Po keeps closely in touch with his father such as continuing to work at the restaurant. In addition, Ping establishes a friendship with the panda's other father figure and master, Shifu. He is extremely skilled at Chinese chess as shown when he outwits Shifu in a match.

However, the Kung Fu Panda Holiday shows that Mr. Ping harbors a deep-seated anxiety of Po leaving him in his nightmares. In addition, Ping finds the conflict of his priorities with his son's responsibilities as the Dragon Warrior deeply upsetting, especially since Master Shifu is prone to imperiously draw Po away on these matters at will. This comes to a head when Po is tasked to host the Winter Festival banquet for the Masters, which takes place at the same night as their traditional dinner at the restaurant. Although Po offers to give his father the high honor of cooking for the formal banquet, Ping stubbornly insists that he cannot close the restaurant for that night and forsake the lonely (and profitable) clientele who have nowhere else to celebrate the holiday. As a result, both father and son struggle in their separate culinary tasks, until Po decides he should be with his father and leaves the banquet early. In turn, Mr. Ping, who was struggling with his own preparations at this time, confesses that he was unfair to Po and concedes his larger duties with his martial arts calling. Regardless, the reunited family creates a successful event at the restaurant that not only pleases their usual customers, but also the visiting kung fu masters, who decide to come themselves out of admiration of Po's loyalty and the relaxed atmosphere. As the second feature film indicates, he was then able to accept his son's subsequent departure to follow his calling with some peace, though like any parent, he still worries for his son's safety.

In Kung Fu Panda 2, it was revealed that one day, while gathering the new shipments of vegetables he ordered, Mr. Ping found a baby panda in one of the shipment's radish crates. Surprised, he looked around and waited for someone to come find the infant. When no one came, he decided to keep the child until someone came looking for him. Quickly finding out that the infant was too big and heavy to carry in, he led him inside with a trail of vegetables. He bathed him, fed him, and nurtured him until one day, he came to realize that no one was coming for the child. He then made two life-altering decisions: He would never use radishes for noodle soup, and he would keep the child as his own son. It is assumed that around this point, Mr. Ping named the baby panda Po.

Mr. Ping is also shown to be a shrewd, if a bit opportunistic, businessman, despite seeming silly other times. For instance, he has renamed his restaurant as "Mr. Ping's Dragon Warrior Noodles and Tofu". In the first film Mr. Ping mentioned he once dreamt of running away to make tofu, with Po's belongings put on display. When Po comes to visit, he cries, "In honor of my son, free tofu dessert for everybody," only to add "with purchases," which causes his customers to groan and when Po returns from Gongmen City, Mr. Ping also shows him the posters he made advertising "My Son Saved China-- You Too Can Save [Money]! Buy 1 Dumpling, Get 1 Free". In the Holiday special, he tells Po that he owes him 17 yuan for the bedroom door, which Po had charged through believing his father was in trouble and also appreciates hosting a feast for Winter Festival not only for giving comfort to the lonely, but also being able to charge a premium doing so ("And lonely people pay extra"). Furthermore, at the end, when the Furious Five visit, Mr. Ping mentions to Po that Mantis, despite his size, must pay full price for his soup.

In Kung Fu Panda 3, Po's biological father Li Shan appears after searching for his son, and for a time Ping is understandably suspicious of the stranger, as well as a little jealous. He even goes so far as to close his restaurant for once, and follow the two pandas to the secret village on the pretext of needing to make sure Po had enough food. However, after spending time among the pandas, Ping comes to the realization that Li Shan truly loves Po, and there is nothing to fear from him. He humbly admits he is in the wrong - "Having you in Po's life doesn't mean less for me. It means more for Po. He needs both his dads." After this, Ping and Li Shan become close friends, comforting Po together, and battling in a constructed two-man mechanized war suit when Kai sets his Jombies loose on the village. He and Li Shan are also the first in the Panda Village to learn how to give chi, and the first to welcome Po when he returns from his battle with Kai. At the end of the film, Ping is shown among the crowd of new Kung fu trainees at the Jade palace, serving refreshments but also taking part in the practice, hinting he may become a master himself one day.

From a behind-the-scenes featurette on the first Kung Fu Panda movie DVD, the filmmakers reveal that (when hearing about James Hong's father having a noodle shop) they brought this to his character Mr. Ping. James Hong is the only voice actor to reprise his role as Mr. Ping in the films, TV series, and video games.

Li Shan

Li Shan (voiced by Fred Tatasciore in Kung Fu Panda 2 and Bryan Cranston in Kung Fu Panda 3) is a giant panda, and the biological father of Po. He was separated from his son when Lord Shen's wolf army attacked their village, and was presumed dead with the other pandas. At the end of Kung Fu Panda 2, he is revealed to be alive and hiding in a secret refuge. In the third film, Li and Po reunite, and Li convinces his son to stay with the other pandas. He lies about knowing chi in order to prevent Po from leaving, but when Kai turns most of the masters into jade warriors, Li is part of the panda army that resists.

Shirong

Shirong (voiced by Malcolm McDowell) is a red panda and the father of Master Shifu. A con artist by trade, Shirong used his son as a shill before abandoning him at the Jade Palace. In the Legends of Awesomeness episode "Father Crime," Shirong stages a kidnapping in order to reconnect with his son, but Shifu is captured by Tong Fo in the process. Shirong, along with Po and Tigress, helps to free his son, and the two end on good terms.

Zeng

Zeng (voiced by Dan Fogler) is a swan goose,[4] and a messenger of Master Shifu. Ironically, while he is given the mission to double the amount of guards at Chorh-Gom Prison and prevent Tai Lung's escape, Tai Lung uses one of Zeng's fallen feathers to pick the lock on his restraints and escape. Zeng is spared in the resulting prison break, but is forced to return to the valley and herald Tai Lung's escape. His role in the film is a reflection of Oogway's proverb that "one often meets destiny on the road he takes to avoid it."

Vachir

Commander Vachir (voiced by Michael Clarke Duncan) is a Javan rhinoceros, the chief of security at Chorh-Gom Prison,[4] and the leader of the Anvil of Heaven, an army of elite battle rhinos. Prior to Tai Lung's incarceration, the Anvil opposed tyranny and injustice throughout China. Vachir was tasked with the construction of the prison, and personally oversaw Tai Lung's imprisonment for twenty years. When Tai Lung made his escape, Vachir was caught in an explosion with many of his troops, and his prosthetic ruby horn-shaped cap is seen amongst the ruins.

Mei Ling

Mei Ling (voiced by Stephanie Lemelin) is a Chinese mountain cat and the star student at the Lee Da Kung Fu Academy, where Crane worked as a janitor. After seeing his graceful movements, she urged him to enroll as a student. When Crane's first attempt at the induction challenge was mocked, Mei Ling felt as if she was responsible for exposing Crane to public humiliation, but he recovered with a strong obstacle course performance and was admitted to the academy.

Wo Hop

Wo Hop (voiced by Jack McBrayer) is a European rabbit and a renowned chef who auditioned for the honor to cook for the Kung Fu Masters Winter Festival banquet. Po, unfamiliar with the intricate customs of the selection process, inadvertently disgraced Wo Hop while waving to Monkey, and the chef became desperate to redeem himself through his own death. Po contained the rabbit and helped him complete a meal for the blanket. After the meal was complete, Po presented Hop with the Golden Ladle, the intended honor for the official cook of the feast, which restored Wo Hop's honor.

Soothsayer

The Soothsayer (voiced by Michelle Yeoh) is an elderly cashmere goat and Shen's former nanny, who foretold the peacock's doom. She also aids Po, treating him with acupuncture and a herbal mixture after his presumed death. The Soothsayer knows what Shen did to Po's village, and helps Po stop fighting his memories in order to achieve inner peace.

Combat styleLeopard Kung Fu

Peng is the nephew of Tai Lung, who left his life as an assistant potter and took to traveling as a self-taught prodigy in the martial arts.

He first appeared in "The Kung Fu Kid", where he visited the Valley of Peace during its Peace Jubilee and was forced into a confrontation with Temutai's nephew, Jing Mei. When the leopard quickly defeated the young water buffalo, the deeply impressed Po persuaded Master Shifu to consider taking him in as a student. Unfortunately, the combination of the cub's likably humble character and his considerable skill drew him so much favor with Jade Palace's residents that Po grew threatened and a little jealous, especially when the cub mused of becoming the Dragon Warrior himself. In response, Po falsely claimed to Peng that Shifu rejected him. Unfortunately, Peng in a rage decided to prove himself by killing Temutai and immediately attacked the water buffalo in his tent. Po, alarmed at his mistake and the cub's murderous overreaction, attempted to intervene, but the fight drifted into the festivities and provoked a riot. Eventually, Po is finally able to confess his deception and apologize to Peng, who immediately calmed down and similarly apologized for losing his temper, allowing the unwitting rivals to reconcile along with Temutai in the spirit of the occasion. After the Jubilee, Peng decides to leave to continue the quest for his family that he tells Po about....to find his uncle, whose name leaves the panda with a shock of terror.

In "Master and the Panda", Peng is first seen selling pottery in the markets of the Valley of Peace during the crafts fair. Two crocodile bandits harass and try to rob him, but Peng quickly defeats them, denying Po, Crane, and Monkey the opportunity. Po flees the scene during Peng's battle. Shortly after he tells Monkey and Crane of Peng's relation to Tai Lung and, despite Crane's insistence that he shouldn't judge him based on his uncle, is unwilling to risk being near Peng if he knows the truth. When Monkey and Crane brought Peng back to the Jade Palace, the other masters were overjoyed to see him. Po attempted to hide by disguising himself as Zeng via a shift-stone, and was revealed by Shifu. Po was forced to reveal that he had vanquished Tai Lung to Peng in private and also trying to show that Tai Lung is evil, and Peng attacked and defeated Po in a rage as an attempt to avenge his uncle, sending him fleeing. The incident frightened Po where he stayed up all night until Peng ambushed him, bringing with him Tai Lung's sword. Peng admitted that, after asking around, Po was right about Tai Lung and that vengeance was not the answer, but decided to quit kung fu, out of fear that he would become as evil as his uncle had. However, this changed when Po came after him, begging for his help in order to defeat Temutai, whom had empowered himself with the Gong Lu Medallion, an amulet that enhanced his strength and his darkest crazed emotions. Together Po and Peng defeated Temutai, but upon stealing away the medallion, Peng was ensnared by its evil, declaring that he was not afraid of power and should instead embrace it while still trying to avenge his uncle. Peng then fought Po in an eerily similar battle to the one he fought against Tai Lung. During the battle, the crazed Peng also blamed Po for corrupting Tai Lung and taking the title and power of the Dragon Warrior from him. Upon wishing that Tai Lung was there to watch him defeat Po, Peng was shocked to see Tai Lung himself appear, who explained that the medallion brought him back to life. Tai Lung then agreed to help him destroy Po and his nephew's enemies, but then horrified him with the idea of destroying everyone and finally learning of his evil. Peng then finally came to his senses, defeating Tai Lung and denouncing him as a villain and a disgrace, and refusing to kill him. Tai Lung then reveals himself to be Po, who used a shift-stone to trick Peng and bring him to his senses. Po explains and reassures that Peng and Tai Lung are nothing alike, as Peng has the heart and spirit of a true warrior. After safely disposing of the medallion, Peng is offered the chance to train at the Jade Palace and is offered his uncle's sword, but Peng turns down the offer, and smashes the sword, saying it can no longer hurt anyone and neither can he. Peng decides to stop trying to avenge his uncle and states that kung fu is over for him and leaves out of fear of the darkness inside him and his fear of not being able to control or defeat it, leaving Shifu, the Furious Five, and especially Po greatly saddened.[5]

In "Kung Fu Fight Club," Peng returns where he starts a Kung Fu Fight Club as a way for the defenseless to defend themselves. He even befriends Lian who helps him. Po ended up learning about this and had to keep this info private from Master Shifu. The antics of Peng's students ended up thwarting the robberies of criminals who were working for Tong Fo. Upon finding the location of the Kung Fu Fight Club, Tong Fo raided the place where his gorillas held Lian hostage so that Tong Fo can get Peng to do as he says. The next day, Po spars against Peng as Tong Fo's gang blended in with the crowd alongside a disguised Master Shifu. After figuring out that Tong Fo is secretly running the fights, Po helps Peng free Lian as the Kung Fu Fight Club members join in the fight against Tong Fo's gang with the help of Master Shifu. After Tong Fo and his gang are defeated, Master Shifu allows the Kung Fu Fight Club to remain.

Song

Song (voiced by Lauren Tom) is a young snow leopard and a member of the Ladies of the Shade, a group of bandits who distract their marks with parasol dancing. Su, the leader of the Ladies, tasks Song with charming Po into allowing the gang to enter the Jade Palace. As she talks to him, Song begins to like Po, and is about to tell him the truth of her origin when Su arrives and asks if the ladies can spend the night in the Palace. When the Ladies abscond with the dragon chalice, Po follows them to their campsite, and rejects Song's apology. Nevertheless, when Su and the other Ladies find Po, Song protects him, and she becomes the leader of the group after Su's defeat.

Constable Hu is an Indian elephant who appears in Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness.

He first appears in "Present Tense" where he offers up a bounty for the capture of Shengqi. Po takes up Constable Hu's offer. When Po learns the truth about Shengqi and brings him to the Valley of Peace to be reunited with his daughter Xiao Niao, Constable Hu tried to stop them and apprehend Shengqi only for Po to tell Constable Hu the truth about what happened the day when Shengqi was incarcerated at Chorh-Gom Prison. Constable Hu tells Po that he'll petition the Imperial Magistrate to have Shengqi's sentence overturned. During this episode, it was mentioned that Constable Hu had a daughter who ran off with a street magician and hasn't seen her in years.

In "Invitation Only," Constable Hu appears before the Furious Five and tells him that he is holding an invitation to Upper Head District Chief Superior Superintendent Chang. When Po arrives at Constable Hu's house to ask about why his invitation hasn't arrived yet. Constable Hu tells Po that he wasn't invited and admitted that Po doesn't have good table manners. When Po begs to Constable Hu to let him come, Constable Hu says "no." When it comes time for the banquet, Constable Hu is nervous at what Superintendent Chang will think of the banquet. When Superintendent Chang gets bored, Constable Hu has Master Shifu and the Furious Five perform something that Superintendent Chang hasn't seen until the banquet was crashed by Temutai. After Po defeated Temutai, Constable Hu told Po to skedaddle until Superintendent Chang invited Po to sit by him. Superintendent Chang tells Constable Hu that the banquet was boring until Po arrived. When Master Shifu hoped that Superintendent Chang would promote Constable Hu and reassign him, Superintendent Chang instead renews Constable Hu's position for another 10 years.

In "Shifu's Back", Po and the others are left waiting for a very long time when it is decided that they need a licence to use their kung fu. Constable Hu finally delivers it to the Jade Palace and, although he admits that criminals are running riot without the Dragon Warrior and the Furious Five to stop them, he doesn't seem happy about giving them their licence.

In "The Midnight Stranger," Constable Hu outlaws Kung Fu due to the overdoing of Kung Fu and tells Po and the Furious Five if they do any Kung Fu, he will have them remanded to Chor-Gom Prison. When Po has been masquerading as the Midnight Stranger to defend the Valley of Peace, Constable Hu was surprised that he found some criminals in his cell after they were defeated by the Midnight Stranger. Constable Hu finds the Midnight Stranger saving a villager from a criminal causing Constable Hu to pursue him after stopping various criminals. Constable Hu later visits Po offering him the opportunity to do a little Kung Fu on the Midnight Stranger during the stakeout. When Mr. Ping masquerades as the Midnight Stranger and stops a robbery at an apple cart, Constable Hu mistakes him as the Midnight Stranger that he was stalking and arrests him. Po ends up becoming the Midnight Stranger and confesses that he was masquerading as him, admitting that he was doing what was right as Constable Hu arrests him. When the pig criminals arrive and admit they manipulated Constable Hu into outlawing Kung Fu, Constable Hu was surprised at this as the pig criminals bring Lidong to help them. Constable Hu helps Po fend off Lidong and the pig criminals. Constable Hu then lifts the ban on Kung Fu as he plans to have Lidong and the pig criminals remanded to Chor-Gom Prison.
