TheOwlKnowingOne: Played with. While something of a KnowNothingKnowItAll he seems genuinely knowledgable in some areas. In the midquel he is near instantly observant that Bambi would be in better care with his father.

* CuteBruiser



* AlwaysSecondBest: A partial reason for his growing hatred of Bambi in the midquel, growing rather competitive around him in terms of athletism and skill.



* TheBully



* CuteBruiser: The nearest to his fawn form's boasting being genuine is [[WorthyOpponent he can match Bambi in a fight]].



* MilesGloriosus: In his child form at least, despite his boasting he is usually the first to run in even the slightest threat.

* TheQuietOne: In the original film, Bambi has a rather limited number of lines, usually emoting more from facial expression. In the midquel, while still more reserved than [[BrattyHalfPint Thumper]], he is much more talkative.

* BreakTheCutie: Happens in the first film when his mother dies and his father tells him off about what happened. Happens again in the midquel, once Bambi's hope of his mother being alive get dashed, as well as getting berated by his father for falling for the hunters trick.



* LetsGetDangerous:
** Right before engaging in combat with Ronno for trying to separate him from Faline.

to:

* TookALevelInJerkass: Ronno goes from simply making fun of Bambi when they first meet, to deliberately coaxing him into fights and confrontations. As an adult, he even seems to provide an animal example of AttemptedRape when he tries forcing Faline apart from Bambi.



* BerserkButton: In the sequel, after he saves Bambi from the hunter and his dogs:
** ''"What if i hadn't gotten to you in time?! [[NeverSayDie You could have been...]] When I tell you "run", you '''RUN''', '''NEVER''' freeze like that!"''



* LukeIAmYourFather: The Great Prince turns out to be Bambi's father midway through the first film. The midquel (which takes place immediately after the death of Bambi's mother) also states early on that he is his father.
* TheObiWan: The Great Prince. This is averted more than halfway through ''Bambi II'', however, when the Prince finally starts to open up and care more for Bambi as a father.

* AmbiguouslyGay: Flower appears to be this in the first half of the film...only to have him fall in love with a female skunk early in the second half. It should be noted that the Flower seen in the first portion of the film was just a kit, the one in the 'twitterpated' sequence's voice and size making it rather obvious he had gone through the skunk equivalent of puberty.
