My biggest issue with it is that, despite being apparently """more expressive""", DK's new face outright cannot do his old resting facial expression.

He literally makes that face several times in the Direct they just had.

It's the eyes.

Nah, nuDK's eyebrows just don't fold that way.
Modern DK is like M eyebrows while old DK is like \___/
To put it another way, nuDK's eyebrows can furrow into an angry expression but they can't do the long monobrow thing that old DK had.

He looks dumb now. You don't need a lot of brains, but if you look fully retarded then being buff means nothing.

I don't like the fur texture, it looks like feathers.

The problem isn't the eyes. It's the mouth. It's too big while also not looking like it's part of his face. Why do his cheeks puff out when he moves them at all like opening his mouth? Even when his lips are pouted his cheeks puff out.

He looks moronic, retarded, inoffensive, almost like an imbecilic child.
Old DK looked heroic, masculine, brave. He was the big bro to Diddy.

In other words, this fucker looks more like Kiddy Kong from DKC3

I like it
It's more like a 60s to 70s Japan cartoon look.
More soulful than the modern post 90s look.

Looks particularly bad when you notice the tuft of hair on his head sticks out like a sore thumb. It's annoying, DKCTF solved donkey kong's fur two console generations ago

They made the top half of his face thinner and rounder and the bottom half wider. So he looks like a cartoon frog.

My main two issues are his m brow and him sticking his tongue out constantly.
He's also overexpressive to the point its obnoxious and makes him look more retarded than a wild animal.
What's more infuriating is that Grumpy literally has old DK's face and can express emotions just fine.

That's fine, except Nintendo is not the same company they were ~40 years ago. Why are they trying to act like they are now? Also

No fuck no. I can get why someone wouldn't like Bananza's fur. But Tropical Freeze's fur looks like that of some kind of teddy bear or rug. It doesn't look like a gorilla's or a primate's fur.
