Adaptational Heroism: The main four all fall under this. Monkey is a lot more heroic than his book counterpart, Pigsy is a lot more selfless, and Sandy isn’t a disgraced warrior seeking redemption. Tripitaka is a lot smarter than in the book and takes a more active role in the quest.

Adaptational Attractiveness: Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy. Helped by the fact that they’re Gods in this version instead of demons. Monkey in particular is very good looking.

Adaptational Badass: In the book, Tripitaka was constantly getting captured left and right and had to rely on his companions to save him. While she does get captured a number of times in this version, it’s not nearly as often, and a few times she even manages to save herself.

The Ace: The Monkey King was said to have been the mightiest of all the Gods with various powers, including duplicating himself into an army and shrinking himself down to the size of an ant. After being trapped in a mountain for five hundred years, he can’t access most of these powers, though he manages to successfully call upon his cloud in the tenth episode. How powerful is he? It’s implied that he alone was preventing the demons from attacking Jade Mountain. When he’s imprisoned, the demons attacked immediately afterwards and the Gods didn’t stand a chance against them without Monkey.
