He is also noted to be fairly civilized despite never letting go of his "wild man" persona, with Jane noting he is more civilized and kind than most and is shown throughout the series to have high morals. In "Jungle Madness", he was able to figure out what made the animals go mad, and in "Lost Treasure" he was able to outsmart some treasure hunters who threatened to kill Jane if he didn't do what they said. He is also noted for being fairly intelligent, as he often thinks his way out of situations given the fact many of his opponents are species that are stronger than him, and he made weapons self-taught.
He is also good at telling when people are telling lies, though he can be tricked.
Tarzan x cast movie#
He takes romance seriously, as shown when he was forced to act in a movie about him in "Silver Screen" and was told to kiss a woman he didn't love saying how confusing acting was and also by refusing Queen La's advances towards him. He has also shown to be surprisingly romantic, as shown through his interactions with Jane, often complimenting her protecting her, and giving her flowers while proclaiming her to be the best woman there is. The gorilla that challenged Tarzan also stated he let his personal life get in the way of his duties and when Jane's friends came to visit and he unintentionally embarrassed her in front of them, he tried to act civilized to impress them. Once the gorillas were kicked out of their home and he had to choose between staying with his family or with Jane because Jane and her father (As humans) couldn't live with them. Another aspect seen is when his personal life with Jane, her father, and humans, in general, tend to interfere with his duties as a pack leader. Tarzan not only rescued his pack but ingeniously hid himself and his friends with mud so the snake couldn't see them. However, the gorilla mistakenly leads the pack to a different route than Tarzan which turned out to be a pit of tar housing a ferocious gigantic snake. Another aspect is his leadership, where another gorilla challenged him for leadership and won because Tarzan saved him. Also, he hates hunters and is very protective of the forest, often kicking the hunters out and destroying their guns.
This could imply that Kerchak influenced Tarzan. He also displayed very similar traits to Kerchak as he refused to accept the baby because it was different and a threat to him and his family (which is very similar to Kerchak's reaction to Tarzan growing up and Jane defending the cub as Kala defending Tarzan). For example, he shows a hatred of leopards (understandably so since they killed his parents and attacked him and his family in the past) and refused to accept a baby cub that Jane found. In The Legend of Tarzan series, he has shown to take over as the leader and while he retains the majority of his personality from the film, there are some other aspects explored and expanded. It was because of his curious nature that he met Jane, Professor Porter, and Clayton. Tarzan was also very curious and when he heard a gunshot he went to investigate while the rest of his family moved deeper into the jungle. And as an adult, he had matured into a more serious character but still displayed a playful and friendly side when around his family and friends. Until Jane Porter, her father, and Clayton arrived he had never seen another human before and was, therefore, unaware of what species he was. In his youth, Tarzan was playful and fun-loving but also felt like an outcast due to the fact that he was human.
This also shows that he cares for his enemies and does not wish death upon them. He's also known to be willing to rescue his enemies an example of this was when Clayton was about to fall to his death, and Tarzan exclaimed "Clayton! Clayton, don't!" and reached out to save him, even though Clayton had fatally wounded Kerchak and attempted to kill him and kidnap his whole gorilla family. He cares deeply about his family and friends and was willing to risk his life to save them. Tarzan is an extremely brave, loyal, and honorable character.
