| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic | comment |
A long Kung Fu Panda Fanfic written after the release of the first film and Secrets of the Furious Five.Some time after Po had defeated Tai Lung and has been largely fully accepted as the Dragon Warrior, Master Shifu gets a letter and has to leave on a personal matter for two weeks, and tells Po and the Five not to set foot in his personal quarters.Naturally, their curiosity gets the better of them, although Tigress is of course the most resistant, and they intrude to find their master's room is a mess and he has been writing his personal memoirs. After cleaning it up to justify their intrusion, the gang can't resist reading about their teacher's early life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })What they read is a story about how the precocious youngest son of a rural family of Red Panda rice farmers is picked by Master Oogway to become his student. Eventually, a group of fellow students arrive and they become an earlier generation version of the Furious Five who save China from a Mongol invasion (which turns out to be the equal victims of a traitorous Chinese general out to exterminate them and thus sully China's national honor doing so). On a more personal level, this Five includes Master Yeying (formerly known as "Song"), a beautiful and ferocious feline Action Girl, whom Shifu eventually marries as the fruition of her father's masterful long term plan to keep her from being pushed into an Arranged Marriage to an old creditor.Unfortunately, their marriage and this early Five's happy lives are ruined when they are betrayed in the attempt to save the Emperor of China from a coup. As a result, a new tyrant takes over, Yeying is reported dead, the Five are scattered, and Master Shifu has to take shelter in the Jade Palace for years under the personal protection of Master Oogway from the new Emperor's bids to kill him.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Out of his grief, Shifu is on the brink of suicide until he discovers Doorstop Baby Tai Lung and raises him to be the son he and Yeying never got to have. Initially, Tai Lung raises his father's spirits by becoming a great hero and noble warrior who helps bring down the evil Emperor, only to be sent even further into despair when that snow leopard later went berserk and betrayed his father's values at being denied the Dragon Scroll. This led to him finding and adopting Tigress who was denied the clear love she needed from him in his admittedly well-intentioned efforts to avoid his mistakes with Tai Lung.All this leads to the moment when the Dragon Warrior was about to be named, the culmination of Master Shifu, Tigress's and the Five's training and sacrifices. However, that is shattered by Po dropping out of the sky to get the honor by apparently pure accident. The rest of the memoir is a transcription of the first film from Shifu's point of view as he first tries to drive away Po, only to learn that the panda truly is the Dragon Warrior and proves it to all.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })During this reading, Po and the Five come to a greater realization about their master while Po and Tigress's relationship grows even stronger with this perspective as they realize their love. This comes into play when Shifu returns, and playfully reveals that he wanted them to read those scrolls as a Forbidden Fruit ploy so he can help them understand him in a way that simply telling couldn't match.All this climaxes when Po and the Five finally meet all of Shifu's lifelong friends he wrote about and even more so when Master Yeying reappears alive although withered and broken after years of imprisonment, rape and torture, only to find to her incredulous joy that her husband is still rapturously overjoyed to take her back into his home.With that, Shifu has his family back, finally lets Tigress know he truly loves her like a daughter, now can playfully be the intimidating father for Po who is preparing to marry Tigress and his memoirs are published in a special first edition signed by all his friends and family. | |

| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_1434e55c | comment |
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Shifu's parents come off as bit of a downplayed example, in that they don't really embarrass him much but they are shown to be rather smothering and overly gleeful most of the time. | |

Darker and Edgier: And how! The treachery related to the Mongol horde is nothing compared to the coup and its aftermath. The author certainly knew her history when it came to bloodbaths. Understandably, many readers were horrified and almost Rage Quit over this. The author herself expressed shock over how strongly people were affected by what she had written. It's that dark and cruel. | |

Everybody's Dead, Dave: The ultimate result of the coup. The entire royal family? Dead except for one last heir. All of the warriors Shifu has to leave behind to Rong Lang, including Jian Qiang and Terbish? Dead except for Yeying who was left to Cold-Blooded Torture. All of Shifu's family and old village? Dead. All of the snow leopards of Mount Tai Shan, whom Shan blamed for the loss of the woman he loved and whom Lang hated after Shan turned on him? Dead except for Tai Lung. Is it any wonder Shifu wanted to die? | |

Go Through Me: Oogway bluntly tells Yeying's mother that there is no way he is going to let her daughter leave her kung fu training to submit to the torturous foot binding and if her father has a problem with that, he's welcome to fight Master Oogway, the supreme grandmaster of kung fu, to settle the issue. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Red Claw. While he does come off as abrasive and brutish when we first meet him, he was still shown to be on the side of the good guys. That is, until it's revealed that it was him who started the war between China and Mongolia as a means to purposely kill off all the Huns. | |

Bury Your Gays | |

Bury Your Gays: Averted with Li and Ren, a gay fox and wolf who are dear friends of Shifu and have had a long and happy secret marriage. In fact, the only complaint from their friends is that their sexual romps are really loud. Oddly, no one bothers to mention that they are technically adoptive siblings when introduced. | |

She Is All Grown Up | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_2cf282ea | comment |
She Is All Grown Up: By the time Shifu and his friends have reached adulthood, they've shown some very noticeable development appearance-wise: Li is described as being a "handsome devil" (with emphasis on "devil"). Yeyling is slightly taller than she was before, developed curves, and her eyes are more noticeably beautiful. Ochir is now a massive fighting rhino bull, with a look so daring that nobody would bother even going up to him. Shifu, in Ren's own words, has a "cute ass" and "a body that could stop a stampede of rampaging oxen at fifty paces". | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Ochir is aggressive, somewhat apathetic, and has no problems with making fun of Shifu over his small height. But as time goes on, it's clear he has a good heart, especially when he starts warming up to Shifu. Yeying to a lesser extent. She's mostly portrayed as being good-hearted but she can still have her moments of aggressiveness and apatheticness as well. This lessened a bit when she got older, with there being much more emphasis on her good-hearted nature. | |

Averted in a Getting Crap Past the Radar fashion; Mantis recalls in chapter 4 when the Furious Five were battling an army of foxes at Dragon Mountain... only for said foxes to just simply run away upon witnessing Tigress, who happened to have been on one of her "lady days" at the time. Cue to everybody else laughing while Tigress herself just scowls in embarrassment. | |

Et Tu, Brute? | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_5037b961 | comment |
Et Tu, Brute?: Happens twice. The betrayal of Red Claw, who turns out to harness a deep, xenophobic hatred towards the Huns and was willing to let his own soldiers die just so he could see Hun in existence drop dead, regardless over whether or not they were innocent. The betrayal of Shan, helping to lead the coup that murders the emperor and his family, nearly fighting Shifu to the death, and eventually helping to slay the entire snow leopard clan of Mount Tai Shan. At the same time, Shan himself views Shifu's refusal to join him and instead fighting him as an equally awful betrayal. Many readers felt the same stomach-turning horror at learning of this as Shifu did. Vachir later feels the same way about Tai Lung after his rampage, since they had initially been war buddies. | |

Artistic License – History | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: Ancient China is shown to be incredibly homophobic, which is why Lin had such a difficult time coming out. In reality, however, Ancient China was actually more receptive of homosexuality than what is commonly thought (they even had a deity for gay couples). It wasn't until much later in history, between either the 14th century or 20th century, that homophobia actually became widespread in China. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Aside from the way Red Claw feels about the Huns (Truth in Television for many in the empire at that time), there is the way snow leopards are viewed as terrifying avatars of death due to being so distant, aloof, and living high in the cold mountains where so many travelers lose their lives—or else hated due to the ongoing enmity between the Mandarins and the Tibetans. This is later exploited by Rong Lang when he claims the Emperor was behind the plague that slew Shan's clan, and was oppressing the snow leopards, to get him to aid in the coup. | |

Time Skip: The first couple memoirs that the Furious Five read started off when Shifu was around four-years-old, then progress by several years as they go on. | |

Big Damn Kiss: Shifu received one from Li in chapter 4, as a way of telling him he was gay. Shifu later then gave one to Yeying in chapter 5 to "confirm" his heterosexuality when he stated to Li earlier that he wasn't into guys. | |

Family-Unfriendly Violence | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_647ce68 | comment |
Family-Unfriendly Violence: While the reader isn't directly shown what happens (other than the death of the emperor's wife), the bloodiness of the coup is literally testified to by Shan's wrist ties, which were once white and are now completely red. To say nothing of the slaughter of Qiang, Terbish, and their men, Shifu's village and family, and the snow leopard clan. Despite happening off-screen, the revelation of these deaths is played with such drama and tragedy to feel as if they were witnessed. | |

Coming-Out Story: It's mostly present in early parts of the story, but one of the story's subplots involve Li struggling to come out to his friends, considering how homophobic Ancient China is. However, while Shifu is a bit uncomfortable to be considered attractive to the Fox, all of his True Companions turned out to already know and are cool with it, including Ren's dying father and of course Master Oogway, although he never went out and said it. | |

Shifu and Li both lived under the impression that Kung Fu was all about protecting others, not killing them. Oogway and Zigsa showed the both of them that that isn't always the case, especially when your enemies are people that deserve it. | |

Politically Correct History | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_7e74d66f | comment |
Politically Correct History: All the heroes, especially Master Oogway, are revolted by the traditional Chinese treatment of females, especially the traditional footbinding.note However, it should be noted that the practice of footbinding was not in fact universally accepted for some time, with it only beginning in the Southern Tang city of Nanjing in the 10th century, limited for a long time to only the wealthiest and most elite women (since poorer families were not allowed such marks of status and it would also run counter to their need for as many workers in the family as possible), and later still would be banned among the Manchus to differentiate them from Han women. So this is both an example of Shown Their Work and Truth in Television. However, it was justified concerning Shifu, having grown up in a traditional rural family, getting his tail kicked by Yeying when they were children when he sneered at the idea of a girl learning Kung Fu. That said, he gets much better and is later the first to want to defend Yeying who is feeling pressured to return home and submit to such treatment. | |

Arson Murder And Life Saving: Master Oogway first scolds Shifu for disobeying his orders not to challenge the Huns, stealing sacred weapons from the palace, and almost getting himself killed in the process. However, he immediately praises Shifu for doing so since he knew Shifu only did it out of the goodness of his heart to protect his friends and family. | |

His Story Repeats Itself | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_9c5472c7 | comment |
The betrayal of Shan, helping to lead the coup that murders the emperor and his family, nearly fighting Shifu to the death, and eventually helping to slay the entire snow leopard clan of Mount Tai Shan. At the same time, Shan himself views Shifu's refusal to join him and instead fighting him as an equally awful betrayal. Many readers felt the same stomach-turning horror at learning of this as Shifu did. Vachir later feels the same way about Tai Lung after his rampage, since they had initially been war buddies. | |

Stay in the Kitchen: Women were viewed as being inferior to men, as in they should be preparing themselves for marriage and family raising instead of learning kung fu. Of course, this was Truth in Television at the time. Shifu actually held such beliefs when he was younger, and the more time he got to spend with Yeying, the more he realized just how much a woman was capable of doing. In fact, he later confessed that when Yeying insisted on helping Zigza get villagers to safety from the upcoming battle, he was secretly relieved considering he didn't want to worry about her being carried off by a Mongol during the fighting. Of course, he would never admit to her since he knew how insulted she would be. | |

Doomed by Canon: Played with. Since none of Shifu's classmates appeared in the movie, it is left to the reader to wonder if they all died or are simply elsewhere in China. The story begins with Shifu getting a letter from Dong Li, but no other clues are given as to who might have survived to the present day. In the end it turns out everyone lived, even the one who was believed dead, they all got to have a last moment with Shan, and they all reunite with Shifu and the Five at the end. | |

Karma Houdini: Some might see Miao Li as this, since it was her suggestion that Shifu stop calling Tai Lung his son to protect him from Rong Lang that led to Tai Lung thinking he needed the Dragon Scroll to earn his father's love (and a family name), which in turn was why he snapped and rampaged when denied it. While she did lose Yeying, this happened before making that suggestion, and she died without ever seeing the horrible consequences of her advice. | |

Dramatic Irony | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_ab5eea65 | comment |
Dramatic Irony: The thing which was supposed to make Tai Lung feel accepted and honored, being given a family name by the Emperor, ended up leading to his rampage and downfall when it was predicated upon Tai Lung receiving the Dragon Scroll. Also, the thing that was supposed to protect Shifu and Tai Lung from losing each other, the panda distancing himself and no longer calling the snow leopard his son, was the very thing that made Tai Lung think he needed the scroll (and a family name) in the first place. And of course, Tai Lung initially began learning kung fu so as to protect his father. Tai Lung's history is full of these. | |

Second Place Is for Losers | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_cef6a167 | comment |
Second Place Is for Losers: While Oogway turned down Tai Lung as the Dragon Warrior, he was planning to dub him Master of the Thousand Scrolls for his unprecedented feat mastering them. However, whether Tai Lung would have been satisfied by this would never be known as he was starting his spiteful rampage at that moment. | |

No Periods, Period | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_d0bf8a6d | comment |
No Periods, Period: Averted in a Getting Crap Past the Radar fashion; Mantis recalls in chapter 4 when the Furious Five were battling an army of foxes at Dragon Mountain... only for said foxes to just simply run away upon witnessing Tigress, who happened to have been on one of her "lady days" at the time. Cue to everybody else laughing while Tigress herself just scowls in embarrassment. It's also mentioned that Yeying started having her... "lady days" when she began puberty. Oogway explained it to the boys when they questioned what was wrong with her, but it's clear it was something they didn't want to know about. | |

Death by Childbirth | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_d29a6629 | comment |
Death by Childbirth: Ochir reveals to Shifu that his mother died giving birth to him. Any insults made towards her (especially ones made by his father) have become a Berserk Button for him as a result. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Shifu calls out Master Oogway for not letting him go out and fight the Huns. While Oogway's reasons were very much justified, Shifu still gets angry with him since he's well-aware that his family and village were in danger and needed his help. | |

| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_d4f9a68f | comment |
Deadly Decadent Court: Li and Ren accept posts at the Imperial Court and reveal the court knows about their gay relationship, but with all the perversities going on behind palace walls, it's considered rather mundane and no one gives them any trouble about it. It is this which is also at least partly responsible for Shan's fall from grace. | |

Family Versus Career | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_dce6cd15 | comment |
Family Versus Career: In the end, Master Yeying is withered and partially broken by all her terrible years since being separated from Shifu, but she's happy at not only having her husband back who loves her just as much as before, but also having children at long last after a fashion with the Furious Five gladly volunteering in that role. This especially goes for Tigress, a beloved daughter she insists on addressing by her old name and is delighted to have her planning to marry the very lovable Po the Dragon Warrior. Whether she will resume teaching or practicing kung fu is never made clear, but her condition may make the point moot. | |

Mama Bear: Master Yeying may be older and withered at the end of the story, but the second she learns how Shifu treated Tigress, she roars that her husband speak to his adopted daughter that very night and tell her that he truly loves her like the daughter she deserves to be. | |

| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: In-story; Shifu and Tigress initially feared Tai Lung was this of Shan since, due to the many similarities, they believed Shan was Tai Lung's father. Although they were wrong about the blood tie, it turned out Shifu was right about Tai Lung's future, albeit for completely different reasons. | |

ThouShallNotKill | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_f08aac64 | comment |
Thou Shall Not Kill: Shifu and Li both lived under the impression that Kung Fu was all about protecting others, not killing them. Oogway and Zigsa showed the both of them that that isn't always the case, especially when your enemies are people that deserve it. Oogway also decides not to kill Rong Lang, stating that doing so won't bring back Emperor Yi. | |

| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: After the very, very brutal events both Shifu and the reader are put through, the story finally ends with everyone reunited and happy. Shan gets to die in peace, Yeying is alive and returns to her husband, Shifu and Tigress become a true father and daughter, Po will likely marry Tigress, and it's even strongly implied Tai Lung will redeem himself. Very much an emotional roller coaster. | |

WellIntentionedExtremist | |
| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Rong Lang claims that he wanted to live in a world where everybody was equal. Unfortunately, his methods for doing so involved convincing Shan to betray his friends, which in turn, led to the murder of the emperor and the massacre of an entire village. Shifu, after being given some rather bad advice from Miao Li, starts becoming harsh and somewhat bitter towards Tai Lung in order to help make him strong enough to take down Rong Lang. Shifu does the same with Tigress later on, but more to stop her from ending up like how Tai Lung did. | |

| Memoirs of a Master / Fan Fic / int_fe64d5a1 | comment |
Evil Is Petty: An arguable case; Shan was manipulated by Rong Lang into betraying the emperor by stating that he was the one responsible for the plague that wiped out his clan, but his true motivation stemmed from Min Lung, his one true love, rejecting him in favor of Tai Lee. | |
