Characters that appear across all or multiple installments of the series
All Characters in General
- Aerith and Bob: As far as the English names are concerned, we have some names like Weslie, Paddi, and Tibbie that might be spelled differently but are otherwise normal human names, then there's Sparky whose name is more of a nickname but also normal. The wolves have less normal names; Wolffy can at least be explained by the fact that he's a wolf, and Wilie could be easily taken to mean "Willy" (and indeed, is pronounced as such in one of the dubbed seasons). Then there's Slowy, whose name is used as a surname in Germany, though quite rarely. Then there's Wolnie, which is such an uncommon name and surname that it's probably fully associated with this series.
- Dub Name Change: The English translations change a bunch of the characters' names.
- Pleasant Goat is renamed Weslie.
- Lazy Goat is known as Paddi.
- Pretty Goat is called Tibbie.
- Fit Goat's English name is Sparky.
- Warm Goat is given the name Jonie.
- Slow Goat is known as Mr. Slowy, or just Slowy.
- Gray Wolf is called Wolffy.
- Red Wolf is renamed Wolnie.
- Little Gray is known as Wilie.
- Four-Fingered Hands: A vast majority of characters have four-fingered hands.
- Humanlike Hand Anatomy: The goats and wolves all have Four-Fingered Hands that look more like human hands than the goat hooves and wolf paws that would be on the real versions of the animals. Their feet more closely resemble the normal hooves and paws, however.
- Interspecies Friendship: Between the multiple kinds of animals, particularly with the goats and most other species that aren't wolves.
- White Bunny: Most, if not all, of the rabbits that appear in the series have white fur.
Goats
As a Whole
- Color-Coded Characters: The six main goats are each associated with a particular color, and in most places they're usually represented by these colors. The specific colors are as follows:
- Weslie is blue.
- Paddi is yellow.
- Sparky is brown.
- Tibbie is pink.
- Jonie is red.
- Slowy is green.
- Intergenerational Friendship: If the goat kids having Mr. Slowy as the only senior citizen in their group is any indication.
- Kid Hero: It's implied that the main goats (not counting Mr. Slowy) are children, based off of episodes like "Candy House Fantasy" where the goats point out that the wolves are adults. Weslie in particular is thought to be either primary or middle school age.
- Kid Hero All Grown-Up: We get to see the goats grown up in Ultimate Battle: The Next Generation and get a glimpse of what their careers are like; Tibbie is now a news reporter searching for Weslie and Wolffy, Paddi becomes a professional foodie, Sparky is a firefighter, and Jonie becomes a singer.
- Light Is Good: The goats all have white wool and are heroes who constantly have to defend themselves from the dark wolves.
- Predator-Prey Friendship: While the wolves start out as their enemies, there are certain seasons where the goats are able to get on friendly terms with them. The entire point of the season Mighty Little Defenders is the goats trying to gauge if they can co-exist peacefully with wolves.
- True Companions: They're good friends who always stick together and rely on each other to avoid Wolffy's clutches.
- Two Girls to a Team: Tibbie and Jonie are the two girls in the otherwise all-male group of main goats.
Xi Yang Yang / Pleasant Goat / Happy Goat / Weslie (喜羊羊)
- The Ace: He rarely does anything terribly wrong, always saves the day, and is popular.
- Attractive Bent-Gender: Can pass for Wolnie, and one of the only male characters to crossdress well.
- Blue/Orange Contrast: The blue neck ornament that has his bell on it is a contrast to the orange beret worn by Wolffy, the villain.
- Fast as Lightning: In Dunk for Victories and its tie-in movie Dunk for Future, Weslie has a move called "Lightning Break" that significantly boosts his speed and produces aesthetic lightning bolts.
- The Everyman: Apart from his optimism, there's not much to say about Weslie compared to his quirky friends (Paddi likes eating food, Tibbie likes fashion, Sparky likes sports, Jonie is famous for every bad thing coming out of her mouth coming true, and Mr. Slowy is a Gadgeteer Genius).
- Iconic Item: The bell around his neck is highly associated with him.
- In-Series Nickname: In the seventh film, Super the penguin nicknames Weslie "0803". This is a Mythology Gag referencing when the Pleasant Goat TV show originally premiered on August 3rd, 2005 (08/03/05).
- Mercury's Wings: In the fourth film, Weslie wears a helmet with little ornamental wings on the sides as part of his armor.
- Not So Above It All: He's a good little goat, but he's not above cheating on a project, framing Paddi for eating mushrooms, playing pranks on his classmates, etc.
- Parental Abandonment: In the third movie, it's shown that his parents abandoned him to go conduct research in space.
- Pink Girl, Blue Boy:
- Weslie wears a blue collar and is usually represented by the color blue, while his friend Tibbie wears pink ribbons and is usually represented by that color.
- This also applies with him and his younger sister Bingbing Goat, introduced in The Intriguing Alien Guests, since Bingbing wears a pink shirt.
- Primary-Color Champion: In the Pleasant Goat Fun Class series, he wears a cream yellow shirt with red sleeves as well as a pair of blue pants.
- Punny Name: Weslie's Chinese name is Xǐ Yángyáng. This is meant to be a pun on the Chinese idiom xǐqìyángyáng (喜洋洋), which means "full of joy", and the homophonic "yáng" (羊) which means "sheep" or "goat".
- Shipper on Deck: Subverted. He seems to ship Wolffy and Pink Fox, but he does it for the sole purpose of ticking Wolnie off.
- Super-Speed: In War of Invention, he wears a pair of shoes that allows him to run at top speeds.
Lan Yang Yang / Lazy Goat / Lance / Paddi / Paddy / Fattie (懒羊羊)
- Big Eater: The kid loves food so much that he can and will gobble down quite a bit whenever he can.
- A Day in the Limelight:
- Paddi has a 25-episode-long side story in Happy, Happy, Bang! Bang!
- The season Paddi the Amazing Chef focuses on Paddi and his ability to cook great food.
- Distressed Dude: The first goat caught 90% of the time.
- Freudian Excuse: He's so lazy because his parents were lazy. They refused to play or eat with him, in favor of sleeping and ignoring their son. Seeing his parents love to sleep so much made him try sleeping. And the rest is history.
- Hard Work Hardly Works: Always manages to elude the wolves via getting rescued in the nick of time or some other thing. And all he does is sleep and eat all day. He even lampshades this by saying his superpower is "being saved." When he actually does work hard, the results are not so good...
- Obsessed with Food: He loves to eat food a lot, to such an extent that he will happily chomp down food at a moment's notice and he hides snacks so that he can find and eat them later. He has a huge Secret Snack Stash hidden in a cave in one episode of Joys of Seasons.
- Punny Name: In the Chinese original, his name is Lǎn Yángyáng, which is meant to be a pun on the Chinese idiom lǎnyángyáng (懒洋洋), which means "lazy and carefree", and the homophonic "yáng" (羊) which means "sheep" or "goat".
- Really Fond of Sleeping: Sleeping, along with eating, are Paddi's two favorite things to do. In Joys of Seasons episode 13, it's shown that Paddi developed these obsessions since his parents were too lazy to play with him, and his mother gave him a cake to eat, giving Paddi the impression that sleeping and eating are fun.
- Sleepyhead: He's often Asleep in Class and just generally lazy, moreso than the other characters.
- Spotlight-Stealing Squad: He takes center stage in one of the Happy, Happy, Bang! Bang! story arcs, Paddi the Amazing Chef, and Against the Dark Force (alongside Wolffy). This is likely a
Development Gag, as he was meant to be the main character instead of Weslie early in the show's development. - Trademark Favorite Food: He's a pretty big fanatic of food to begin with, but he especially loves to eat green grass cake.
- Tuft of Head Fur: A variant, as Paddi has wool, not fur; nevertheless, he has a swirly tuft of wool on his head when none of the other goats have tufts on their heads.
Fei Yang Yang / Force Goat / Fit Goat / Sparky (沸羊羊)
- All Love Is Unrequited: He has a crush on Tibbie and always tries to do things to impress her or gain her affection. In the end, he never actually gets Tibbie's affection.
- Ambiguously Brown: His skin color is noticeably darker than that of the other goats, but this is never brought up in the show.
- Carry a Big Stick: In the fourth film, Sparky receives a big hammer as his weapon. The hammer automatically increases its weight to 10,000 tons to inflict serious damage on enemies.
- DreamWorks Face: This artwork of Sparky
shows him with the smirk and the crooked eyebrows that are characteristic of the DreamWorks Face. - Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Cockroaches make him faint from fright, so obviously they appear in the stories.
Mei Yang Yang / Pretty Goat / Tibbie (美羊羊)
- Damsel in Distress: It's common for her to be tied-up in Wolffy's castle and for the male goats to have to go save her.
- Feminine Women Can Cook: It's stated that she enjoys cooking.
- Green Thumb: In Mighty Little Defenders, she wields a bow and arrow that can create big vines wherever it shoots.
- The Smurfette Principle: Up until Jonie's first appearance, she was the only female of the main goats. In Pleasant Goat Fun Class, Jonie barely appears, leaving Tibbie as the only female of the goats.

- Fan Disservice: There are several "odd" paintings of him in the background.
- Gadgeteer Genius: He spends a lot of time in his room experimenting and making new inventions to help the goats.
- Mister Descriptor: His English name, Mr. Slowy. "Slowy" is supposed to be a combination of the words "slow" and "steady", fitting how Slowy is Slower Than a Snail but has steady wisdom for the goat children.
- Mr. Exposition: Slowy sometimes provides exposition by telling the goats about major plot points, usually about Wolffy's plans.
- Only One Name: In the English dub, he is named Mr. Slowy, implying "Slowy" is his family name. However, it's not known what his first name is.
- Scratchy-Voiced Senior: He has a scratchy-sounding voice in the English dubs of Great War in the Bizarre World and Joys of Seasons.
- The Smart Guy: Out of the main goats, he is the smartest. He always has knowledge for them and he always has inventions ready for the goats.
- Smart People Wear Glasses: Slowy, who's the smartest out of the main goats, is always seen wearing glasses.
- Techno Wizard: He even makes a computer that cooks.
- Wise Old Turtle: In the fourth movie, he wears a suit of green armor that has a turtle shell on the back, perfect for a slow but wise chief.
Nuan Yang Yang / Soft (or Warm) Goat / Jonie (暖羊羊)
- The Big Guy: She has mountain goat genes, making her the strongest goat in the whole village.
- Barrier Warrior: Seasons that give her powers often give her a shield or the ability to make forcefields. In Marching to the New Wonderland, her Xiha train has the ability to create a protective forcefield around itself; Jonie herself gets this same ability in Mighty Little Defenders; and in The Season Towns, she owns a shield, just to name a few.
- Does Not Know His Own Strength: So much so that she has to wear gentle cuffs invented by Mr. Slowy to be able to help hurt animals without her accidentally hurting them even more.
- Lethal Chef: In Episode 426, Jonie is shown to be a terrible cook, with the food she makes for the other goats causing even Paddi to stumble on the floor.
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: The physically strong Lethal Chef Tomboy with a Girly Streak to Tibbie's Girly Girl, and the two of them are close friends to boot.
- Tomboy with a Girly Streak: Physically strong, talkative, but also kind-hearted and likes pink.
- Will Not Tell a Lie: If Joys of Seasons episode 82 is any indication, it doesn't seem to be in Jonie's heart to tell lies. She's asked to convince Wolffy there's most definitely not a trap waiting for him when they're actually is and starts to feel a bit terrible for it, going as far as to go apologize to Wolffy about it. Wolffy, being the goat's arch-enemy, uses the opportunity to capture Jonie.
- You Just Had to Say It: Seriously, everything (bad) she predicts comes true. "What if Mr. Slowy trips?" "I guess we'll only find out if Wolffy shows up." She's not called the crow mouth for nothing.
Lau Dao Yang / Old Knife Goat
- Berserk Button: Gets angry if the flower on his head is removed.
Fei Ji Zai / Chopper / Airplane
- A Day in the Limelight: Normally, Airplane only appears in the background, but he plays a major role in Joys of Seasons episode 78, where the goats paint on the village wall. Airplane goes to Mr. Slowy's lab and finds the special paints that result in moving paintings.
- Meaningful Name: He's called Chopper/Airplane because of his distinct propeller hat.
- Speech Impediment: Stammers a lot.
Luan Mie Mie / Soft Goat

Weslie's mother, who was once a famous singer.- Early Installment Character-Design Difference: When she first appears in the second movie, she has a different wool "hairstyle" than the one she has later on, and she doesn't wear her signature blue dress.
- Mother Nature, Father Science: She used to work as a famous singer, contrasting with Weslie's father Smarc who used to build machines.
Smarc
Weslie's father, who is a scientist.- Mother Nature, Father Science: He used to build machines while Weslie's mother Lily used to sing in concerts.
- Portmanteau: The name "Smarc" is a combination of the word "smart" and the name "Marc".
Wolves
As a Whole
- Alliterative Family: The main wolf family, in the English translations, consisting of Wolffy, Wolnie, and Wilie.
- Bilingual Bonus: The wolves' Chinese names end in "太狼" ("Tàiláng"). This is a pun on the Japanese language. "太狼" ("Tàiláng") and "太郎" ("Tàiláng") are homophones in the Chinese language, and "太郎" is also the Japanese name Tarō, meaning "the first son". Japanese names can appear aggressive in the Chinese language, and this fits the evil wolves.
- Cartoony Tail: The wolves have overly bushy tails. While wolves' tails really are bushy in real life, they're visibly rounder than how they appear in this show.
- Dark Is Evil: They're evil villains and they're gray wolves who either live or at least meet up in a dark castle.
- Predators Are Mean: They're designated as villains due to their desire to eat the goats.
- Rule of Seven: Wolffy's relatives form a group of seven known as the Seven Evil Wolves who help him whenever he may need the assistance.
Hui Tai Lung / Grey Wolf / Wolffy (灰太狼)
- Adaptational Nice Guy: In Pleasant Goat Fun Class, Wolffy's villainous traits are heavily downplayed and his most antagonistic trait is being ruder in comparison to the goats.
- Anti-Hero: He becomes one in Pleasant Goat Fun Class, being ruder than the goats but not willing to hurt them on purpose like he does in the original show.
- Attractive Bent-Gender: With his female shark costume he looks attractive. Leo the shark chased him all the way from the ocean to Qing Qing and apparently still wants him even after finding out he's not a female or a shark.
- Big Bad: He is the main antagonist of the entire show. His goal is to successfully catch and eat the goats. He often works with his wife Wolnie and the other wolves.
- The Big Bad Wolf: Wolffy's not him. In fact, the series' producers actively defied this trope, naming Wolffy "Big Gray Wolf" in Chinese to avoid connecting him to the archetypal Big Bad Wolf.
- Blue/Orange Contrast: The orange beret he wears is a contrast to the blue, bell-adorned neck ornament worn by Weslie, the hero.
- Defeat Catchphrase: He says "I'll be back for sure!" or some variant of it whenever the goats outsmart him.

- Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: Wolnie more often than not puts Wolffy through a ton of abuse for not catching the goats, unfortunately for him.
- Ear Notch: A tiny part of his ear is missing. Makes sense since he's been beaten up a couple hundred times.
- Embarrassing Damp Sheets: He had a tendency to wet the bed as a kid. It gets to the point that it earned him the Embarrassing Nickname of "Pee Wolf".
- Embarrassing Nickname: Niao Tai Lung ("Pee Wolf"), for the bad habit of wetting the bed as a cub.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He genuinely cares for his wife Wolnie, as well as his son Wilie.
- Exposed Animal Bellybutton: He has a visible belly button.
- Fire, Ice, Lightning: He wields a magic staff in The Season Towns that lets him shoot these projectiles, derived from a three-headed flower that has these same abilities.

- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Wolffy has a vertical scar that runs up his face and stops just below his eye.
- Green-Eyed Monster:
- In the episode where Wolnie loses her memory and ends up flirting with every male wolf in sight and the episode where Wolnie's first love, Xio Bai Lung/ White Wolf shows up; whenever that guy is mentioned, in fact.
- When White Wolf is involved, Crazy Jealous Guy comes into play
- Henpecked Husband: Wolnie constantly nags Wolffy to go out and catch goats for dinner. Wolffy listens to her because if he doesn't attempt to catch the goats, he'll be hit with her Frying Pan of Doom.
- Hyperspace Arsenal: Wolffy often pulls items out of nowhere.
- Identical Grandson: Looks just like his grandfather (sans fur color), Huang Tai Lung/ Yellow Wolf
- Ink-Suit Actor: A variant, in that the person he resembles isn't actually his actor; Wolffy's face, especially his droopy eyes, were deliberately made to look like the series creator Huang Weiming.
- Iron Butt Monkey: He has been subjected to many an amusing injury over the span of 2,000+ episodes and recovers from all of the carnage without so much as a scratch by the next episode.
- Joker Immunity: Wolffy always suffers through a wide variety of slapstick, often times being blown into the sky, only to be back in perfect shape and ready to capture the goats once again.
- Laughably Evil: He's quite incompetent at catching the goats and he has a hammy voice, making him one of the more comedic villains in the series.
- Love Martyr: Wolffy loves his wife Wolnie, despite the constant pummeling she gives to him as a result of not catching any goats. The only reason Wolffy makes attempts to catch the goats at all is out of love for her.
- Magic Pants: In Mighty Little Defenders, the bandana around his neck remains intact, albeit shrunken, when he's turned into a dog.
- Magic Staff: He wields one in The Season Towns, a wooden cane-shaped staff with red, yellow, and blue bulbs on one end, that lets him shoot fire, ice, and lightning projectiles.
- The Mole: When he's turned into a puppy by accident in Mighty Little Defenders, he uses this new form to go undercover and gain the goats' trust.
- Morphic Resonance:
- When he is a human in I Love Wolffy and its sequel, Wolffy wears a gray coat that resembles his gray fur when he's a wolf, and in the first I Love Wolffy film, part of his hair is orange due to him wearing an orange beret in the Pleasant Goat world.
- He retains his ear notch and scar when he turns into a dog in Mighty Little Defenders.
- Official Couple: Is married to Wolnie and has shown quite a few times that he genuinely cares for her.
- Pantsless Males, Fully-Dressed Females: The only clothing Wolffy has going for him is a bandana and a beret. Wolnie, by contrast, wears a red, black, and white coat that goes down to her feet.
- Perfectly Arranged Marriage: He ended up marrying Wolnie because he ate a plate of fried rice that she made and her pack told all male wolves in the canteen that she worked at that whoever eats the rice will win her hand in marriage. The rice proved too terrible. Wolffy, having missed the announcement, snuck into the canteen for free food, and ate the whole plate. The wedding came next and they are happy.
- Pointless Band-Aid: His humanized form in Mr.Wolffy, Mr.Right! wears an aesthetic bandage on his right cheek, replacing the scar he has in the main series.
- The Power of Love: As the villain's motivation; this is his whole reason for even attempting to hunt goats. In the second movie, he manages to pull up a giant cylinder, likey 100+ times his weight, and throw it into the sky so it wouldn't crush his wife.
- Precious Puppy: He's accidentally transformed into a cute little puppy after using one of General Wolf's chips in Mighty Little Defenders. He uses his dog form to go undercover for the goats.
- Rugged Scar: Wolffy has a prominent scar on his face. It's made of several lines.
- Scars Are Forever: It's been well over 2,000 episodes and Wolffy still has a scar on his face.
- Secondary Color Nemesis: In Pleasant Goat Fun Class, Wolffy's purple shirt and orange beret contrast with Weslie's red, yellow, and blue outfit (not that Wolffy is as much of a villain in Pleasant Goat Fun Class as he is in the main series, but he's still ruder than the goats).
- Sore Loser: In Pleasant Goat Fun Class: Sports are Fun, Wolffy doesn't take it well when he's not the winner of the sports events. He gets especially upset in episode 6 of that season; when he discovers he lost the tennis match with Weslie, he angrily pushes his teammate into the air, kicks the tennis ball and his tennis racket, and summons a giant eraser to erase the lines on the tennis court before being carried away to clean the classrooms as punishment for his vandalization of public property.
- Spotlight-Stealing Squad: It's getting hard to distinguish who the main character is, whether him or Weslie.
- The Starscream: Wolffy becomes one over the course of Great War in the Bizarre World, sapping the electric powers from Darton once he is able to and using them to not only become king of the Bizarre World himself, but to (what else?) catch the goats.
- Team Pet: He becomes one to the goats in Mighty Little Defenders after being transformed into a dog.
- Thinking Out Loud: Wolffy has a tendency to state his schemes out loud, even if nobody is around to hear it, so that the audience can know what he plans to do.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Wolffy craves the goats and always wants to eat them. Goats would be Wolffy's favorite food if he could ever catch and eat them (which he can't).
- Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: Wolffy has noticeably scraggly facial hair and is ugly-cute at best compared to his wife Wolnie, who wears makeup and is overall easier on the eyes.
- Villain Protagonist: There are certain episodes and seasons where he gets enough focus that he can easily be seen as the main character instead of Weslie. He is outright given top billing in the titles of the I Love Wolffy films and the season Mr.Wolffy, Mr.Right!.
Hong Tai Lung / Red Wolf / Wolnie (红太狼)
- Affectionate Nickname: Usually addressed as "honey", "darling", "wife", etc. (and Xiao Hong/ Little Red in the 3rd movie), by Wolffy.

- Bookworm: Sometimes she's shown to take part in reading, though it's downplayed since she doesn't do it extremely often.

- Weapon for Intimidation: In later seasons, her frying pan becomes more of an Ornamental Weapon, and the most she uses it for is usually to intimidate Wolffy.
Xiao Hui Hui / Little Grey / Wilie (小灰灰)
- Carnivore Confusion: He addresses the goats as "brother____", always greets them cheerfully, and seems to think of them as his friends. And yet he has no problem with his parents wanting to eat mutton. In the second movie, he even admits to Paddi that he was trying to trick him to come to his home because Wolffy told him Paddi was the dumbest, and therefore easiest goat to catch. He even cheers when Wolffy was about to cook Paddi because his father told him "goats taste just like snowflakes because they're both white". But he refuses to eat mutton since the goats are now his friends but doesn't mind eating fish, etc.

- Vegetarian Carnivore: Has expressed his desire to become a vegetarian in Season 4, despite being a wolf.

- Trademark Favorite Food: Banana-loving, banana-eating wolf.

In the 3rd movie, they evict him from the pack for not being able to catch goats (even though they didn't fare much better) and proceed to take his castle again. Not to mention, the whole pack leader rivalry.

- Jerkass: Freeloads constantly at Wolffy's house, bullies his cousin with abundance, complains when there's nothing to eat at Wolffy's home, enjoys visiting Wolffy just so he can tease him, and the list goes on and on.
- Pretty Freeloader: Whenever he shows up at Wolf Castle, he never leaves for the duration of the episode. Then he demands mutton. Makes him more of a Jerkass when you consider the fact that he's not even supposed to go to Wolffy's home for New Year's, being the older cousin- in Chinese tradition, they're all supposed to go to the eldest relative's home, not the youngest!
- Savage Wolves: Treacherous, lecherous, a bully; he has every negative trait associated with wolves.
Xiang Tai Lung / Fragrant (香太狼)

- The Ace: From the wolves' point of view at least. The fact that he manages to catch and eat goats nearly every day (a feat that's nigh impossible in this show!) probably doesn't endear him to the goats
- First Love: He was Wolnie's first love interest, before she became Wolffy's husband. In fact, she still fantasizes about White Wolf occasionally.
- Light Is Not Good: He's white, but he's still just as evil as the other wolves and he manages to catch and eat goats all the time.
- Walking the Earth: He refuses to settle down in one place, preferring to wander and help wolves in need.
- White Wolves Are Special: For one, he's one of the few wolves in the show who has successfully captured goats on a regular basis.
Chen Yang Zai / The Slayer of a Thousand Goats
- Famous Ancestor: He's well known for slaying a thousand goats
- Jerkass: The thing that sparked the castle shaking incident? He tried to take all the goats for himself, not that Wolffy objected. Wolnie did. He then taunted the couple by telling Wolffy to get his wife to do a dance for him. Not pleased, Wolffy attacks and the fight starts
- Meaningful Name: How many goats has he killed? He's the Slayer of a Thousand Goats.
- Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Look at his name — The Slayer of a Thousand Goats. If you're a goat, you better run.
- No Holds Barred Beat Down: Beats Wolffy very badly and it doubles as a Curb-Stomp Battle, with the whole damn castle literally shaking from how hard the blows were.
- Our Ghosts Are Different: Technically he's a ghost, due to Wolffy's summoning machine, which pulled him through a portal and in the present timeline, resulted in his technically being dead. He can still move and possess solid objects. Until he's sent back to his own time by Wolffy and the goats.
Wu Da Lang / Martial Wolf (武大狼)
- Eyepatch of Power: He's the leader of the wolf pack and wears an eyepatch as part of his pirate outfit.
- Family-Unfriendly Violence: One of the worst offenders on the show. In episode 499, which involves Time Travel, he pulls out a sword and knifes Wolffy in the face, resulting in the latter's defining scar.
- Famous Ancestor: As the famous Martial Wolf, he puts the Slayer of a Thousand Goats to shame. He is Wolffy's great-great-great-great-great-great-great....great-great grandfather.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: Told his pack to starve themselves so they could become thin enough to enter the goat village gate. They all starved to death.
- The Leader: He is the founding father of Grey Wolf's pack.
- Pirate: Just take a look at his design — eyepatch, pirate bicorner hat with a skull and crossbones.
Other Animals
Bao Bao Da Len / Master Pao Pao
- Dark Secret: He's... gasp!... bald. And he's ashamed of it and tries to hide it.
- Fingerless Hands: Of the "mitten hand" variety, though he does actually have fingers; they're just not clearly visible unless he has any of his fingers up for whatever reason.
- Honorable Elephant: He loves to advocate peace, is known for his fairness when holding court trials, and is all-around friendly.
- Judge, Jury, and Executioner: Can hold trials all by himself.
- Named After Somebody Famous: He is named after Bao Qing Tien, a famous Chinese politician who lived during the Song Dynasty and is revered nowadays as a Chinese symbol of justice.
Tai Guh / Brother Tai
- Bilingual Bonus: His Chinese name sounds like the English word "tiger".
- Briefs Boasting: His only proper clothing is a pair of blue underwear, and he spends a lot of screen time proudly flexing his muscles for others to look at.
- Carnivore Confusion: For some reason (like practically every other non-wolf in the show), he's friends with the goats although he's a tiger.
- Punny Name: A bilingual one; his Chinese name, Tai Guh, sounds like the English word "tiger".
- Top-Heavy Guy: His beefy upper body is quite large compared to his legs, which don't even take up one fourth of his total length.
Bien Zuay Luen / Flat Billed Luen
- Informed Ability: His "amazing" singing voice. Never shown in the series, but other characters admire him.
Fen Hong Hu Li / Pink Fox
- Affectionate Nickname: Xiao Hong/ Little Red, Fen Hong Mei Zeh/ Little Pink Sister, all by Wolffy
Xiao Jing Ling / (Little) Fairy
- Ironic Name: He's the same size as Jonie, but has the adjective "little" in his name.
- Jackass Genie: He's willing to enslave Paddi, frame others to avoid getting in trouble, and is generally useless. Not so much a Jerkass as plain incompetent.
- Mix-and-Match Critters: He has the same body design as Jonie, a goat, but with a duck's beak.
- Our Fairies Are Different: He resembles a mix between a goat and a duck, which is a far cry from most depictions of fairies.
- Three Wishes: He promised to grant these to anyone that finds his diamond for him. According to him, Wishing for More Wishes is against the rules. Wolffy learns this the hard way.
Bizarre World Cast
Tropes shared by the egg brothers
- Cain and Abel: Jollie is the Cain in a loose sense, as while his "all-knowing prophet" qualities are more than questionable, he's ultimately helping the goats (or at least trying to). Darton, having taken over the Sixth Space and mind-controlling the bees to go against the goats, is the Abel.
- Egg Folk: Both are anthropomorphic eggs with arms and legs.
Xiao Sa Ge / Carefree Brother / Jollie / The Shining Prophet
- Catchphrase: He says "I'm gonna put a curse on all of you!" and draws circles in the ground with a stick whenever something one of the goats says frustrates him.
- Fusion Dance:
- He does one with Eggy in Great War in the Bizarre World episode 54, as he needs to do the fusion to help in stopping Darton. He does this by eating the other individual by accident, and the transformation looks like a superhero outfit akin to Ultraman, but with a cape and belt.
- He does a fusion dance with Darton at the end of Great War in the Bizarre World, this time with a different costume.
- Hypocrite: He calls Eggy a "stupid egg" a few times while gleefully ignoring that his lack of knowledge of how the Bizarre World actually works makes him look stupid.
- Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Jollie claims to be an all-knowing prophet, but a lot of his actions seem to point to him not being particularly "all-knowing" at all, such as providing a picture of a screwdriver and attempting to pass it off as a map showing how to find the Luminous Ray.
- The Load: Indeed, the goats start to catch on to the fact that Jollie's so-called knowledge is proving more of a hindrance to them when his guidance while aiding in their search for the Luminous Ray slows them down.
- Sudden Anatomy: He can retract his arms and legs, allowing him to roll, and then extend them back into sight.
- Underwear of Power: When he is fused with Darton in Great War in the Bizarre World, Jollie wears a pair of red underwear on his head.
Hei Da Suai / The Black Marshall / Darky / Darton
- Evil Is Hammy: He is the evil twin of Jollie and speaks in an exaggerated, hammy voice. In the English dubs, he has a distinct Eastern European accent.
- For the Evulz: Literally, all he wants to do is become the "most evil."
- Sealed Evil in a Can: The bees inhabiting the Bizarre World were able to seal him inside an egg they consider to be sacred. Wolffy accidentally removes the seal while trying to cook the egg, releasing Darky.
- Weird Sun: He acts as the sun to the bees' world, lighting up the sky every day and then going to sleep once he has stopped glowing for the night.

Introduced in Dear Little Wish
In general

Introduced in The Tailor's Closet
In general

Big Mirror
- Faceless Eye: The only facial feature he has is a single eye.
- Non-Indicative Name: He's a magnifying glass named "Big Mirror". Magnifying glasses and mirrors are definitely not the same thing.
Introduced in Adventure in the Sea
Mary
- Non-Mammalian Hair: She's a sea horse with a head of blonde hair.
Chef Zhang
- Non-Mammalian Hair: He has a mustache despite being an octopus.
Uncle Crab

- Disembodied Eyebrows: His bushy eyebrows float above his eyes, though this is only noticeable when he makes certain facial expressions.
- Non-Mammalian Hair: He is a crab who has a mustache.
- Penny-Pinching Crab: Uncle Crab steals trash that has been thrown away and sells it at his shop to make a quick buck, leaving it on the ground and making it potentially dirty and bacteria-laden with more concern for his money than his customers. In episode 37 of his season, Tibbie gets the store in fresher shape by cleaning up the trash and turning it into entirely new items, such as a television and a lamp into a hat and newspapers into a wig.
Introduced in Flying Island: The Sky Adventure
The Mechanical Master
- Wind-Up Key: Being a robot, he has one on his back. Strangely, it doesn't turn around by itself.
Hope
The director of the Weather Factory, this inventor helps Weslie and Paddi to deliver weather fruits.- Wrench Wench: Inventing is one of her specialties. She's built a giant mech suit, for one, and tries to help deliver weather fruits with remote-controlled mechanical wings also of her own making. She does have a bad track record when it comes to her inventions interrupting other people, though, making the other factory employees afraid of what her mechanical wings might mess up until Hope increases their accuracy by having them programmed to autopilot their way to people's houses to make deliveries.
The Rainbow Beans
- The Dividual: There's barely anything to set apart any of the Rainbow Beans besides their color schemes; they're the same competitive and obnoxious character otherwise.
- Palette Swap: The Rainbow Beans are all literally the same character, right down to their cephalothorax-like designs. The only thing that distinguishes them is their color schemes, with each one made to match the colors of the rainbow.
- Rainbow Motif: Comes with the territory of being the ones to create a rainbow by using differently-colored pens. Each one is colored in one of the seven colors of the rainbow.
- White Gloves: The vaguely humanoid-ish Rainbow Beans wear white gloves.
General Balloon
- Safety Freak: He is very strict about his safety standards since he and the rest of the balloon people are fragile enough to pop at the slightest provocation. He does everything from removing metal objects from locations to forbidding the balloons from playing soccer, but goes as far as to impose these standards on Wolffy as well, even though they're not effective on him since he's not a balloon.
Introduced in the Pleasant Goat Fun Class series
Sister Earth
A little rabbit who appears in Pleasant Goat Fun Class: The Earth Carnival. Miss Earth flies around on a little globe and guides the goats and Wolffy around the carnival's rides.- Bunnies for Cuteness: She's an absolutely adorable little rabbit.
- Canon Foreigner: She was introduced in Pleasant Goat Fun Class and has no main-series equivalent.
- Dub Name Change: She's called Miss Earth in the English dub.

- Sphere Factor: Her preferred method for travelling is by standing on a little flying globe.
Characters exclusive to the movies
The Super Adventure
The bacteria in general
- Fingerless Hands: The White Bull and Black Bull Kingdoms' bacteria all have stubby hands that lack fingers.
- Waddling Head: The White Bull and Black Bull Kingdoms' bacteria are all heads with feet. This doesn't apply to the Yellow Bull Kingdom's bacteria, which have defined bodies.
Desert Trek: The Adventure of the Lost Totem/The Tiger Prowess
Lord Japper, Leopold, and Counselor as a whole
- Big, Thin, Short Trio: Lord Japper is the big one, Leopold is the thin one, and Counselor is the short one.
- Terrible Trio: Lord Japper is the bossy leader, with his assistants Leopold and Counselor averting the usual "assistants are much ditzier than the group's leader" characterization.
- Tomato in the Mirror: Lord Japper and Leopold believe themselves to be a tiger and a leopard respectively, but are actually a house cat and a hyena. After Counselor Gecko reveals he was the leader of the carnival operation, he tells Lord Japper and Leopold that he was lying to them just to be cruel.
- Would Hurt a Child: None of them see a problem with forcing the children to work at the amusement park with no breaks.
Lord Japper the Tiger
- Chained by Fashion: The gold chains he wears around his neck and on his pants are a good indicator that he's quite rich, as well as the fact that he's even able to build an amusement park over Goats' Village in the first place.
- Fat Bastard: He has a bulky physique and a blatant disregard for how his amusement park's using up enough energy from the ground to turn the surrounding area into an inhabitable desert.
- Large and in Charge: He's the big guy in a Big, Thin, Short Trio and heads the amusement park's operations. Or so the film leads you to think. It's actually Counselor the gecko, the short one of the aforementioned "big, thin, short" trio, who was giving orders to Lord Japper.
Counselor Gecko from The Tiger Prowess [MAJOR UNMAKRED SPOILERS]
Counselor Gecko
- Ass in a Lion Skin: He's actually a dinosaur, not a gecko. Interestingly, in addition to feigning his own species, he forces this on Lord Japper and Leopold by claiming they're a tiger and a leopard respectively, when they're actually just a normal cat and a hyena.
- A Dog Named "Cat": He's actually a dinosaur, not a gecko as his name claims.
- Living Dinosaurs: All those times that Counselor is called a gecko? Not true. He's actually a dinosaur who wants to revert the world back to the prehistoric era. He also summons a dodo to attack the goats after he reveals this.
- Non-Mammalian Hair: He has a head of red, spiky hair.
- Outside-Context Problem: Weirdly, Counselor Gecko is one to Lord Japper and Leopold, and the trio were already an outside-context problem for the goats and wolves. Nobody expected to hear Counselor Gecko admitting he's the one masterminding Lord Japper's objective.
- Reptiles Are Abhorrent: He's one of the villains of the film alongside Lord Japper and Leopold, and is the only reptile of the trio while the other two are cats. This goes even further when it's revealed near the end of the film that he's the one masterminding Lord Japper and his amusement park, on top of him convincing Lord Japper and Leopold that they're a tiger and a leopard respectively when they're actually a house cat and a hyena.
Moon Castle: The Space Adventure
Tropes shared by Wandi and Queen Luna
- Moon Rabbit: They are both anthropomorphic rabbits who live on the moon.
Wandi
- Magical Star Symbols: He has stars on his magician vest.
- Rabbit Magician: He's an anthropomorphic rabbit who is working on his magic tricks, and wears a top hat much like the ones actual magicians would wear.
Queen Luna
- Noodle People: Compared to the other characters, she's quite tall and slender.
- Stellar Name: She is the queen of the moon, after all.
The gourds in general
- Anthropomorphic Food: They're all anthropomorphic gourds.
- Faceless Goons: The generic gourd goons all wear a piece of paper that covers their faces. The papers have the Chinese character "兵" (meaning "soldier") written on them.
The Bitter Gourd King
The film's antagonist, an anthopomorphic bitter gourd who wants to turn the moon bitter.- Expressive Mask: His "苦" mask moves exactly once in the entire film, specifically when he accidentally consumes one of Wolffy's tears of joy and stops being bitter.
- Meaningful Appearance: The sheet of paper he wears as a mask bears the Chinese symbol "苦", which means "bitter".
The Super Gourd Shock Troopers
Four of the Bitter Gourd King's mooks, consisting of a winter melon, a pumpkin, a cantaloupe, and a watermelon.- Bullet Seed: The watermelon Trooper can spit watermelon seeds out of his mouth at a rapid-fire rate.
- Non-Mammalian Hair: The watermelon Trooper has a head of black hair.
- Pumpkin Person: The pumpkin Trooper wears a pumpkin on his head.
- The Smurfette Principle: Of the four Troopers, the cantaloupe is the only female.
Mission Incredible: Adventures on the Dragon's Trail
Xiao Shen Long
- Delightful Dragon: He gets into action only to fight the villainous dragons, but other than that he's quite friendly towards the goats (and wolves) and teaches them some martial arts moves to use on their journey.
- Elemental Powers: Borrowed from his previous appearance in Xiao Shen Long Kung-Fu (小龙大功夫), Xiao Shen Long has powers representing the five classical Chinese elements. The "Blazing Ham" kick is Playing with Fire, generating a fire on his foot as he uses the attack; the "Diamond Snap" is based around metal and involves a scream; he has an unnamed (at least here) soil tornado attack; he can create a water dragon with "Gushing Faucet"; his "Split Image" ability to self-duplicate would go in the grass's place, but it doesn't seem to have much of a connection to it.
- Self-Duplication: One of his abilities is to create multiple duplicates of himself.
- Wings Do Nothing: He has wings but is never seen using them to fly.
Tyrano-Rex from Mission Incredible: Adventures on the Dragon's Trail [MAJOR UNMARKED SPOILERS]
- A Dog Named "Dog": Little Blue Dragon is a... dragon.
- Despair Event Horizon: The entire reason for his actions.
- Dinosaurs Are Dragons: He's called Tyrano-Rex, which is a dinosaur's name, but is a dragon.
- Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Little Blue Dragon is, in fact, little, blue, and a dragon.
- Evil All Along: The culprit of the Dragon's World's slow destruction is Little Blue Dragon, who followed and helped the goats and wolves on the journey to reassemble the special key and return it to the Dragon's Den. Wolffy was actually right on the money when he suspected him of being a spy and doesn't realize it until this point.
- Heel–Face Turn: After he reunites with his father, he makes amends with the goats and their allies.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: When he is about to snap the Dragon Den's key into pieces, his eyes turn red.
- Secret Identity Vocal Shift: His voice as Tyrano-Rex sounds nothing like his voice as Little Blue Dragon, the former sounding like an adult and the latter sounding like a child.
The Mythical Ark: Adventures in Love & Happiness
The snakes in general
- Ass in a Lion Skin: They all disguise themselves as different animals whenever they go outside.
Meet the Pegasus
In general
- Pegasus: The word "pegasus" is in the film's title, so it'd only make sense for it to feature pegasi. The pegasi in this film are much more humanoid than usual, however.
- Winged Humanoid: They're supposed to be pegasi, but have humanoid builds. They have wings like pegasi do, though.
Prince Pegasus
- Catchphrase: "I am the Prince."
