Bunnidharma is a supporting protagonist of the animated series Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny.
He is an old rabbit who was trained by Oogway in Kung Fu and the spiritual arts. He was supposed to help the Four Constellations seal Jindiao in the spirit urn but overslept and now regrets what happened. However, a thousand years later, he was given a chance to redeem himself and since then Bunnidharma has been helping Po and the children in the fight against Jindiao.
He was voiced by James Sie.
Personality[]
Bunnidharma is a hermit, that is, he prefers to live alone, primarily becuase he let down Oogway and the old constellations when he failed to deliver the Spirit Urn to defeat Jindiao, after which he developed a guilt complex blaming himself for the deaths of the Constellations.
He also has memory problems, but despite this, he can use his head, as he was able to replace the spirit urn so that Jindiao would not break the real one.
He can have a somewhat obnoxious personality, often hitting Po with a stick, but overall he is a rather kind bunny who wanted to right his old mistake.
Appearance[]
Bunnidharma has a dark gray body color, huge eyes green color, long face and long mustache. From clothes, he wears a red-yellow robe, as well as a yellow belt. He also wears beads around his neck.
Biography[]
A thousand years ago, Bunnidharma was an ordinary potter until Master Oogway told him to make a spirit urn to capture Jindiao's soul. However, Bunnidharma fell asleep and the four constellations had to sacrifice their lives to defeat Jindiao. From then on, Bunnidharma began to live in a cave, regretting that he could not complete his task.
A thousand years later, when Jindiao almost took possession of the chi Po, Bunnidharma told the panda that he could still fight.
This gave Po strength and he defeated Jindiao. When Po lay unconscious, Bunnidharma took him to his house. There, he wanted to know what was wrong with Po, to which the master dragon replied that his chi heroes had been stolen by the evil Master Jindiao, and then thrown into the pit. Having received the answer, the rabbit began training Po.
The next day, during training, Bunnidharma mentions that he was once taught by Master Oogway, saying that he had not seen him since Ke-Pa's exile. Then, when Po finds out that it was Bunnidharma who helped him defeat Jindiao, the rabbit tries to get away from Po, but then admits that it was for him that the four constellations died.
Bunnidharma begins to tell his backstory, after which Po says he knows where Jindiao's soul is, which shocks Bunnidharma. Rabbit tells Po that fighting Jindiao without chi means signing his own death warrant. Po, in turn, replies that he knows that he can lose, but considers himself obliged to stop Jindiao and find the constellations. A little later, Bunnidharma joins Po in search of the four constellations. When Po finds his students, he starts introducing them to Bunnidharma. After that, the ears of the rabbit point to the place where Jindiao is located.
Climbing the mountain, Bunnidharma says that he does not know how to use the urn and that only the first constellations know how to use it. Returning to his home, Bunnidharma sends Po and the children to the spirit realm, while he himself decides to meditate. When Jindiao broke into the rabbit house, Bunnidharma sensed Jindiao and replaced the spirit urn with a fake one. Afterwards, the rabbit warns Po about Jindiao.
Having met with the fallen Dragon Master Jindiao, the rabbit says that he is not afraid of him, to which Jindiao demands to give him the spirit urn. However, Bunnidharma throws the spirit urn to the children, after which Jindiao lifts Bunnidharma, Po and the constellations into the air, and breaks the spirit urn himself. After that, Jindiao orders Bunnidharma to be released so that he would regret for another thousand years that he could not help stop Jindiao. Bunnidharma apologizes for letting the kids and Po down. When Jindiao almost fired a chi blast at Po, Bunnidharma stood in front of the panda and took the hit. Then he tells Po to take the children and Jindiao to the temple of the four constellations, saying that the panda will understand what to do, after which the rabbit dissolves into rose petals, which makes Jindiao very happy.
In the spirit realm, Bunnidharma tells Po that the spirit realm doesn't live by the rules of the mortal world, also saying that Jindiao can't take Po's dragon master status away. When Po asked for help, Bunnidharma says that no one and nothing can change his inner essence. And then he says that Jindiao has chi Po, and that the panda should follow this chi.
When Jindiao was imprisoned in an urn of spirits, Bunnidharma, talking to Oogway, said that Jindiao would pay for his evil deeds. Oogway, in turn, says that the rabbit can forgive himself because he took his second chance. Bunnidharma thanks his old friend, after which he says what Oogway is doing, who, in turn, says that he is mainly bathing in the eternal now. Bunnidharma says he will get used to it.
