''Tarzan II'' is a 2005 DirectToVideo {{Interquel}} to the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon film ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'', produced by Creator/DisneyToonStudios.
Tarzan, seen as a young child, is unsure about his place in the jungle. He can't even run as fast as his gorilla family when chasing the mysterious monster Zugor. Therefore, when his mother Kala (Creator/GlennClose) thinks he died in a river accident, Tarzan thinks he's so isolated from everyone else that running away is the best solution.
He finds a place called the Dark Mountain where he meets Zugor (Creator/GeorgeCarlin) face-to-face, who turns out to be an eclectic monkey who pranks the jungle into thinking he's threatening. Tarzan and Zugor soon bond over feeling like they don't belong, and Tarzan thinks that staying in the Dark Mountain forever isn't a bad idea. When Kala realizes that Tarzan is still alive, she must now team with her family, Terk and Tantor to find Tarzan. Will Tarzan leave his family forever, or could he find purpose back home despite his differences?

!!''Tarzan II'' provides examples of:
* AbusiveParents: Mama Gunda doesn't shy away from physical punishment when disciplining Kago and Uto.
-->''Mama Gunda:'' Lips!
* AffablyEvil: Mama Gunda talks in a sickeningly sweet manner with everyone.
* AnimationBump: Scenes of the film, while consistently passable, fluctuate in quality a bit, ranging from high quality TV budget to practically matching the fluency of the first film.
* BerserkButton: Kago does not like being poked by his brother.
* BeYourself: The {{Aesop}} of the movie. As Tarzan tries to seek exactly what he is, he is left with the answer he is... a Tarzan, something that is unique and special in itself. Kind of a BrokenAesop, though, since in the first movie, Tarzan being led to believe that he was a unique kind of ape and being swayed away from trying to act too much like the others was portrayed as a ''bad'' thing when Tarzan encountered creatures that were much more like him; he even got mad at Kala for not telling him that such creatures existed.
* {{Blackmail}}: To get Zugor to change his mind, Tarzan blackmails Zugor by threatening to tell everyone that ''he's'' the Zugor.
* BookEnds: The movie ends exactly the same way the first did - the camera zooms out as Tarzan emits his famous yell from a tree branch, then cuts to the film's title on a drumbeat.
* CentralTheme: Identity. After realizing he's not like the other gorillas, Tarzan tries to figure out what he really is.
* CopycatMockery: Terk does impressions of Kerchak and Kala to make fun of the arguments they have about Tarzan. She even changes her hair to match.
* CynicalMentor: Zugor becomes this to Tarzan for a while.
* DecemberDecemberRomance: [[spoiler: Between Zugor and Mama Gunda.]]
* DumbMuscle: Kago and Uto are both enormous, but rather dim-witted. ''Especially'' Uto, who mistakes Tarzan for a baby bird and accidentally points at himself while responding with a NoYou to one of Kago's insults.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Kago and Uto may be big and violent apes, but they are very respectful towards their abusive and controlling mother.
* FakeActionPrologue: The movie opens with Tarzan fleeing from what appears to be the monster Zugor. It's actually just a game he plays with Terk.
* FullBoarAction: While trying to figure out what he is, Tarzan attempts to befriend a young warthog, resulting in a whole sounder of hogs attacking him.
* TheHermit: Zugor is an elderly gorilla living all by himself.
* HorrifyingTheHorror: Even Sabor, the most terrifying predator in the jungle, runs from the Zugor's calls.
* InkSuitActor: Zugor looks very much like Creator/GeorgeCarlin as an ape, complete with a bald forehead and a grey beard-like tuft on his chin.
* {{Interquel}}: Takes place between in {{Time Skip}} of the first movie.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Zugor. He scares the other animals so that they leave him alone, and is initially very dismissive of Tarzan and insensitive to his problems, but he softens up to the boy once he realizes they are similar.
* KickTheDog: Kago is introduced as playing with a mouse - that is, blocking the way of the scared rodent with his fists, just for kicks.
* KillerGorilla: Kago is an aggressive gorilla who takes pleasure in smashing things.
* LaughablyEvil: In contrast to the antagonists of the first movie, Mama Gunda and her sons Kago and Uto are silly, comical villains.
* LighterAndSofter: Compared to the original movie, this one is less violent and ''a lot'' more kid-friendly. The villains are incompetent and LaughablyEvil, and the greatest apparent threat (the Zugor monster) is just imaginary.
* LoveRedeems: [[spoiler: Mama Gunda does a full HeelFaceTurn when she and Zugor realize their attraction to each other.]]
* MamaBear: Kala charges at Kago and Uto, who are at least twice as big as her, when they threaten one of the gorilla babies as well as Tarzan.
* ManChild: Kago and Uto are both fully-grown male gorillas rivaling Kerchak in size, but have the personality of little boys.
* {{Metaphorgotten}}: Mama Gunda's bedtime story about three little frogs is meant to be a clear allegory to her and her sons' situation, but soon it devolves into an evil monologue ignoring the frog metaphor.
* MisplacedWildlife: Wildebeest, giraffes, warthogs, and gazelles are shown living in the jungle.
* MyBelovedSmother: Gunda is a very overbearing mother to Kago and Uto.
* MythologyGag: When Zugor tells Tarzan to stay in the far corner of his shelter, Tarzan mutters "Me Tarzan, you grouch", an obvious play on "[[BeamMeUpScotty Me Tarzan, you Jane]]".
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: The oxpecker perching on the rhinoceros that competes with Zugor for fruit has a very zany, cartoony design, complete with FeatherFingers, compared to the somewhat realistic design of the other animals in the movie.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: Zugor realizes that he and Tarzan are not that different after discussing that both of them have been cast out of their gorilla troop (Zugor because of his old age, Tarzan because of his species).
* NoYou: When Kago calls Uto a "banana brain", he responds with this (while accidentally pointing at himself).
* OutlivingOnesOffspring: A few years after losing her own child to Sabor, Kala believes she lost Tarzan too after he falls off a cliff in a storm.
* RhinoRampage: As Zugor forages for food, he encounters an angry rhino who takes his food. He attempts to scare away the rhino by the "Zugor monster" act, but Tarzan blows his cover, resulting in the rhino chasing both of them.
* ScarecrowSolution: Zugor uses a hollow tree trunk to amplify his voice, and some light effects to cast a gigantic shadow, pretending to be a monster.
* SequelEscalation: Inverted, the movie is a much more low-key story than the original movie, with fewer life-threatening situations and more LaughablyEvil villains, focusing on Tarzan's childhood.
* SmallParentHugeChild: Uto and Kago are huge gorillas who are huger and more muscular than their mother Gunda (who is also a gorilla).
* VineSwing: Tarzan begins to realize who he really is after he discovers his skills with this. He also uses his swinging skills to rescue Kala in the climax.
