Age Lift | |
| Kim / int_121b3725 | comment |
Age Lift: Mahbub Ali was described in the novel as a very old man, around his seventies, whose red beard was the product of dyeing his grey hairs. In the 1950 film he was portrayed by then-40-year-old Errol Flynn, although that could be attributed to a case of Hollywood Old. In the cartoon, on the other hand, Redbeard is as young as he appears to be, easily around his thirties. | |

Misplaced Wildlife | |
| Kim / int_17a45ff5 | comment |
Misplaced Wildlife: In one episode, while going into the woods, Kim and Elsa encounter a skunk, an animal endemic only to the Americas and, if counting stink badgers, the Sunda islands of Indonesia, but not India. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Kim / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Flower of Delight was a devious streetwalker who was in cahoots with other spies to extract information from Mahbub Ali. In this adaptation her name is Jasmina, and not only does she actually love Redbeard, she also spies on her boss, the rebel Nawab, on behalf of him. | |

Spared by the Adaptation | |
| Kim / int_7453bc5b | comment |
Spared by the Adaptation: Teshoo's previous chela, although still remains an unseen character. In the novel he caught a fever and died. In this series, he abandoned him. | |

Obviously Evil | |
| Kim / int_7c0bfb83 | comment |
Obviously Evil: Captain Bennett is a smug, snarky Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette who makes no bones about his hatred for Kim and tries to get rid of him at every chance he's got. It's no surprise that he's the Big Bad who has been working with the rebels. The real surprise is WHY was he working with them. | |

Only Known by Their Nickname | |
| Kim / int_a7850fbf | comment |
Only Known by Their Nickname: Although Mahbub Ali appears in the show, he's never called by that name, going instead by the moniker Redbeard (Barbarossa in earlier episodes), his same nickname from the 1950 film. | |

Adaptational Jerkass | |
| Kim / int_a91078ea | comment |
Adaptational Jerkass: "Jerkass" is a strong word, but Teshoo is very short-tempered and grumpy, and has a low tolerance for Kim's occasional bullshit, more in line with a Stern Teacher than the calm and charismatic Magical Asian from the original novel. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain | |
| Kim / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: At a party for a Maharaja, Captain Bennett, out of petty dislike, has Kim expelled by making him trip on purpose. Outside, Kim uncovers a plot to assassinate the Maharaja, and he and Redbeard burst in time to foil it. Had Bennett not expelled him, the assassination could've been carried out successfully. | |

Race Lift | |
| Kim / int_d7c3ba61 | comment |
Race Lift: In the original novel both of Kim's parents were Irish. He passed as Indian from years of living in the streets, under the sun, and being raised in the local culture, to the point the English themselves couldn't tell him apart. Here, he's mixed race: his mother was Indian. | |
