Jake (Dragon) - I like the S1 form, but the S2 form has more logic behind it, so I could go either way. I dont even really agree with that, especially as with what ive seen, much of 'logic' behind the change hasnt been adhired to. The only thing that kind of sticks is the Half Chinese, half European dragon, though Since his Dragon Blood is 100% Chinese, Id say that it would be more logical that he were a fully chinese dragon even if he does have western human blood.

I actually prefer Jake's season 2 dragon form. The season 1 version looked all big and bulky, like he couldn't move around to well. The season 2 version might not look as pumped as the season 1 version, but he can actually move around very fluidly now.

Well, I guess logical was the wrong word to use. I meant it more like in a symbolistic way as in his dragon forms reflects his physical characteristics as a person.

Well,I think the human and dragon blood intermingle.Jake has more human blood in him because his mother married outside of magical creatures and,theoretically,that could leave Jake and Haley only part dragon.That must be another reason Laoshi and Jake's aunt gave Susan such a hard time.Because marrying outside magical creatures in general must be an uncalled for act. And that answers another question I've had for a while on why there weren't more wifes bodyslamming their husbands into their wedding cakes. XD LP

Oracle Twins - ... S1. I mean, wtf happened to ... I dunno .. Them being TWINS? Twins don't necessarily have to look alike. Ever hear of "fraternal twins"? Yeah, that's one piece of logic everyone's missing. Though I do prefer their Season One look.

Just cause they never actually did show that doesnt mean they couldn't, I will admit the screenplay of season 1 leaved a lot to be desired, but I never saw these limits that people seem to place on the season 1 form (There are limits to a degree but no where near as many as people say, there were advantages also). And smooth? A lot of the time ive seen the new dragon move its been choppy and wierd. I will admit though, I have only seen it on the PC not the TV so its not of a high quality as it could be.

XP But I mean .. they started out identical ... so I think they should have stayed the same in season too. I mean, it'd just make more sense.

They weren't exactly big, huge important characters in the first season either, so there was less of a focus to keep them relevant to their original designs (like there was for Jake and the other main characters). Which is probably why they gave a quick refresher when they introduced them again (remember Trixie's line in "The Academy"? "It's those twins who see into the future and all that!"). It's not like you see the twins in every episode (they were only in 2 or 3 in Season 1), so I don't really see a reason to complain if they got a bigger makeover than the other characters you DO see nearly every episode.

Well, if you think about it Jake's S1 form being big and bulky was kind of pointless. I mean, he relied a lot more on power, and a lot of the villains Jake was fighting in S1 were bigger (if not, just as big) as him and he had to resort to uses speed and agility in the end, which wasn't exactly the strength of his S1 form. So, I can kind of see why they made the change. Also, if someone had shown me a picture of Jake (before I'd started watching the show) and asked me to imagine what he'd look like as a dragon. I probably would've pictures something a lot more like his S2 form, then I would his S1 form.

Mostly Season 1 because I had a hard time getting used to season 2:
Jake: Season 1 Spud: Doesn't matter Trixie: Doesn't matter Grampa: Season 1 Fu: doesn't matter Rose: Season 1 Huntsgirl: season 1 Huntsrose(huntsgirl with her mask off): season 1 Huntsman: Season 1 Haley(human): Doesn't matter (Except in Season 2 episode "Haley gone wild" she PWNS!) Haley(dragon): Season 1 Susan: Doesn't matter Johnathan: Doesn't matter

I'm got the feeling of getting used to the Season 2 drawing style now.
