* TheDreaded: While she's never malicious, her tendency to rambunctiously burst onto the scene, wanting to get involved in the other characters' activities while she was not necessarily invited, providing UnwantedAssistance and unwittingly wreaking havoc at it all has the Bear and other animals (from both the farm and the foresty) rightfully dread her presence at times. In the case of the Bear it's because he knows the peace/quality time he enjoys will be invariably ruined by her.

* BigEater: Played with. She still is a little child with an average stomach, but as soon as she gets hungry, it's almost guaranteed she'll istantly eat whatever Bear is carefully picking or cooking.

* GracefulLadiesLikePurple: Her default outfit is a purple traditional Russian dress, a purple head scarf and purple sneakers, which underlines her girliness. The other outfits she occasionally dons are often purple as well.

* BrattyHalfPint: She can be annoying at times (although never the impolite/insulting attitude kind) and likes to talk a lot and easily becomes hyperactive.

* NobleWolf: "Noble" might be a stretch, and they'll sometimes go after the Hare to eat him out of animalistic needs, but they surely don't exist to eat Masha.

* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: Whenever the Bear tries to shoo her away, she always ends up coming back.

* ParentalSubstitute: He's very much a substitute father for Masha.

Also known as "[[InSeriesNickname Mishka]]", Bear is a former circus star and a happily retired dweller of the forest. Although he may look serious and reserved, he acts as a paternal figure to Masha, and he's always prone to save her from any potential danger.

* BearyFunny: Bear's hapless reactions to Masha's antics provide much of the humor in the series.

** Sometimes she'll put herself in harm's way without an inch of fear.

* DeadlyDoctor: Although she just wants to have fun, this is what the [[ThoseTwoGuys two wolves]] think of her since their first traumatic meeting, being victims of her ComicallyIneptHealing.

* UncannyFamilyResemblance: Masha and her cousin Dasha look like ''twins''. PlayedForLaughs when the latter temporary wears the former's Russian traditional dress.

Small, young, hyperactive and extremely curious, Masha is the main character of the series. Although she's only three years old, she's incredibly good at doing things unusual for her age. Much to Bear's chagrin, she often gets in trouble because of her sheer curiosity, and he must always repair the damage afterwards.

* CheerfulChild: She's always cheery.

* TheDreaded: While she's never malicious, her tendency to rambunctiously burst onto the scene, wanting to get involved in the other characters' activities while she was not necessarily invited, providing UnwantedAssistance and unwittingly wreaking havoc at it all has the Bear and other animals rightfully fear that the peacefulness of their quality time will be invariably ruined.
