to:

* AcceptableEthnicTargets
AcceptableEthnicTargets: The probable reason they were designed as anthropomorphic African-looking masks instead of actual Africans was to avoid accusations of racism.
* AmbiguouslyHuman
AmbiguouslyHuman: In "Masked Identity", Peter is recruited into the Manjis and becomes identical to them after a ritual. He rapidly switches to their language and it is implied that he would have forgotten his identity if Judy had not snapped him out of it. This rises the possibility that many other Manjis, if not all, were also children from the outside world at one point. And unlike Van Pelt, they can be killed by Jumanji's animals.
* AnthropomorphicObjects
AnthropomorphicObjects: They take the form of traditional African masks with arms and legs.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality
BerserkButton: Being lied to and having their sacred relics and ground defiled.
* CannibalTribe
BlueAndOrangeMorality: At one point, the Manjis are ready to kill the main trio because they stepped on sacred ground, as 'Tribal Bob' (their leader) ''cheerfully'' tells them. When they take a step to the side, they are suddenly out of sacred ground and the Manjis lower their weapons.
* DarkestAfrica
CannibalTribe: Implied but never confirmed. They carry human skulls, tie Judy to a log and carry her upside down, and put Peter in a [[CannibalCauldron giant cauldron]] - but this is actually part of the ritual to turn him into a Manji.
* NonHumanHead
DarkestAfrica: What they are meant to evoke.
* RainOfArrows
RainOfArrows: Or spears. Which they do when they are mad with someone.
* TheUnintelligible
TheUnintelligible: The Manjis speak their own language mostly made of clicks, though Alan and Peter learn it. They are never subtitled.
* WackyWaysideTribe
WackyWaysideTribe: Fulfill this trope when they are antagonistic.
* WildCardWildCard: They jump constantly from enemy to ally, though they are not inherently mean or evil.

AlwaysChaoticEvil: The monkeys have a propensity to bring chaos and annoy humans, and Jumanji likes to send them into the real world when the kids cheat.
* TheBrute
TheBrute: The big monkey.
* ManiacMonkeys
ManiacMonkeys: In the first episode, one even steals a crossbow from Van Pelt and tries to shoot Judy with it.
* MixAndMatchCritters
MixAndMatchCritters: Like the monkeys in the movie, they are a mix of different primate species rather than a depiction of just one.
* RedRightHand
RedRightHand: The intermediate-sized monkey has a deformed, blind eye.
* SmallAnnoyingCreature
SmallAnnoyingCreature: The smallest monkey seems incapable of going without annoying someone. Even members of its own species.
* ThoseTwoBadGuysThoseTwoBadGuys: Those Three Bad Monkeys. Although "The Prize" shows that there are more monkeys, these three are recurring.

* TimeStandsStill
SnakeOilSalesman: The stuff he sells actually works, but he has a tendency to pull out of agreements when he decides they are not in his interest.
* TreacherousQuestGiver
TimeStandsStill: In his first episode, he agrees to trade a 'get out of Jumanji free' card for Judy's broken watch, because she claims it can control time. When the gang returns to Brantford, they find that time outside has stopped.
* TricksterArchetypeTreacherousQuestGiver: He sends the trio in several [[FetchQuest Fetch Quests]] to get the clock back, only to reveal that a new shipment of the thing he sent them to fetch has arrived and now he is no longer interested in buying it.
