** You'd think his giant peacock tailfeathers would be a big hinderance in the highly agility-based Kung Fu, but no, it's highly convenient for Shen--he's got a combination of knife blades, CombatHandFan, and hang glider for hindquarters!

** Shen heavily averted any preconceptions about him. His initial introduction made him out to be the standard arrogant BigBad, who would be mostly talk and little action. Instead, Shen turned out to be the exact opposite -- he killed off [[YouHaveFailedMe insubordinate mooks]] without hesitation; in close combat, [[CombatPragmatist he used every advantage and disadvantage]] in his favour, and he managed to avert NoPlansNoPrototypeNoBackup concerning to his powerful weapon. The final battle even implied that Po was having trouble turning Shen's own flaws against him, and the warlord ended up being killed by his own rage.

** Oh, she doesn't just sacrifice her life for her baby. She ''deliberately draws off the wolves'' in order to give her baby a chance to live. A literal, and 100% entirely awesome, MamaBear.

*** All told, there is a moment of awesomeness of the filmmakers: they managed to make a peacock feel genuinely ''threatening'' as a villain!
** A meta example: according to WordOfGod, Shen was so complicated to animate (likely due to his tail feathers) that animating him was the equivalent of animating six different characters in one! Now ''that's'' dedication to a character!

** [[PragmaticVillainy Wolf Boss realized or even remembered from the first fight that his handful of wolves would be powerless against the Five and Po in a straight fight]]. So instead of preparing for a traditional BossBattle, he steals a rickshaw driver to pull a GetBackHereBoss and pretend he's retreating and using various citizens as hostages/diversions, only to lure the sextet straight into the palace, Shen's recently reestablished base of operations, where his army was waiting to ambush them.
