History WesternAnimation / TheJungleBook2

* IWasNamedMyName: Human example. Mowgli is called that (or Man-Cub) throughout the first movie by all the animals. Here, we see that his adopted human family has also named him Mowgli.
** It's also possible Mowgli either told them his name or he pretended to choose his own name. He can clearly communicate with them after all.

* TooDumbToLive: Lucky is a brainless ScrewySquirrel (well, screwy ''vulture'') who spends the majority of his role taunting Shere Khan over his defeat at the hands of Mowgli ''as up close as possible'' inadvertently giving him directions to the mancub's location in the process (before falling victim to a rather nasty beating).

After being charmed by the village girl Shanti (voiced by Creator/MaeWhitman) at the end of the last movie, Mowgli (Now voiced by Creator/HaleyJoelOsment) has since been accepted by the Man Village. Despite being adopted by a loving family, Mowgli still finds himself yearning for his old life in the jungle before he had to follow the rules of his new parents. Baloo (Creator/JohnGoodman) has also found himself missing Mowgli and decides to pay him a visit despite Bagheera's objections. When Shanti mistakes Baloo for a wild predator, he and Mowgli run off to resume their carefree life in the jungle. Worried about Mowgli's well-being, Shanti and Mowgli's adopted brother Ranjan try to find him before anything happens to him. Unbeknownst to Mowgli and his friends, Shere Khan has returned to the jungle, seeking revenge after his humiliating defeat at Mowgli's hands.

* BadassAdorable: Even if he's technically the BabyOfTheBunch, Ranjan doesn't seem to be afraid of anything. When Shanti is hypnotized and nearly eaten by Kaa, he intervenes at the last minute and actually beats the giant python into submission with a stick.

* NeverMyFault: When Shere Khan interrogates Kaa on Mowgli's whereabouts. He believes that Kaa knows where Mowgli is (after hearing the snake grumble "man-cub"). But truthfully, Kaa has no idea where Mowgli is, but Shere Khan won't believe him and continues to threaten the snake. So to save his skin, Kaa fearfully lies to the tiger that Mowgli's at the swamp, allowing him to flee. When Shere Khan arrives at the swamp with Mowgli nowhere to be found, he angrily growls "That snake ''lied'' to me!"

* RoleReprisal: Tony Jay, who provided the voice of Shere Khan, previously voiced a different variation of this character on ''The Jungle Book'' spin-off ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin''.

* BrainyBrunette: Shanti brainy and she has long black hairs.

* Wedgie: Ranjan is the victim of this. After Shanti tells him to stay and runs after Mowgli and Shere Khan, Ranjan almost immediately begins to follow her only for his shorts to get stuck on a branch and fling him backwards into Baloo.

* BareYourMidriff: Shanti wears a yellow choli (top-blouse) that opens her belly. She also wears an ankle-length skirt that covers her belly button.

* MisplacedWildlife: The big dance number has both hippos and Thompson’s gazelles (native to Africa) Kookaburras (native to Australia) and ocelots (South and Central America).

** It's also possible Mowgli told them his name. He can clearly communicate with them, so it's not implausible to assume that either he told them or he pretended to choose his own name.

** I always assumed Mowgli told them his name. He can clearly communicate with them, so it's not implausible to assume that either he told them or he pretended to choose his own name.
* Loin Cloth: Mowgli and Ranjan's standard outfits.
* Magic Pants: Applies to Ranjan's loin cloth. Similar to Mowgli's in the original Jungle Book, Ranjan's loin cloth is able to stretch a fair distance away from him and still remain intact after the fact.

* TooDumbToLive: Lucky is a brainless ScrewySquirrel who spends the majority of his role taunting Shere Khan over his defeat at the hands of Mowgli ''as up close as possible'' inadvertently giving him directions to the mancub's location in the process (before falling victim to a rather nasty beating).

* Freeze-Frame Bonus: You can see Ranjan's buttcrack during the wedgie scene if paused at the right frames

-->'''Shere Khan''': Oh, please don't insult my intelligence; it makes me ''irritable''.

* NeverMyFault: When Shere Khan interrogates Kaa on Mowgli's whereabouts. He believes that Kaa knows where Mowgli is (after hearing the snake grumble "man-cub"). But truthfully, Kaa has no idea where Mowgli is, but Shere Khan won't believe him and continues to threaten the snake. So to save his skin, Kaa fearfully lies to the tiger that Mowgli's at the swamp, allowing him to flee. When Shere Khan arrives at the swamp with Mowgli nowhere to be found, he angrily growls "That snake ''lied'' to me!" Well, Shere Khan, you didn't believe Kaa when he told you the ''truth'': "I ''don't'' know where Mowgli is". Sometimes you just gotta believe the snake when he tells you the truth for once.

** Kaa, on the other hand, ''truthfully'' has ''no idea'' where Mowgli is, but Shere Khan won't believe him. So, out of fear, Kaa lies to the tiger that Mowgli's at the swamp, allowing him to flee.
