List of Jackie Chan Adventures characters

This is a list of characters from the animated television series Jackie Chan Adventures.

Protagonists

Main cast

• Jackie Chan (animated) (voiced by James Sie in the animated segments; portrayed by himself in the live-action segments) is a talented archaeologist who lives in San Francisco with his fictional uncle and niece. Jackie possesses exceptional martial arts skills mirroring those of his real-life namesake. A recurring element in his portrayal is that he often feels pain in his hands after fighting, frequently uses a variety of everyday objects and elements in combat, and is often placed in awkward or dangerous situations from which he must escape. These traits are inspired by the real-life actor's films. In the live-action "Hey, Jackie..." sequences at the end of each episode, the real Jackie Chan answers questions from young fans, primarily children, about his life, career, and Chinese culture.

• Jade Chan (voiced by Stacie Chan) is Jackie's eleven-year-old fictive-niece from Hong Kong. Although commonly referred to as his niece, the series establishes that she is technically the daughter of Jackie's cousin Shen.

• Uncle (voiced by Sab Shimono) is animated-Jackie's uncle and Jade's great-uncle. His real name is unknown, and he is referred to simply as "Uncle" by almost everyone in the series, including himself. He speaks with a Cantonese-accented drawl and often refers to himself in the third person. Uncle operates an antique store in San Francisco's Chinatown, where many of the group's adventures begin. He is a wise sage and researcher of magic. When casting magic, he uses the Cantonese incantation "Yu Mo Gui Gwai Fai Di Zao", which translates to "Evil demons and malevolent spirits, be gone!". In the "Hey, Jackie..." segment of the show, Jackie Chan revealed that the character of Uncle was inspired by his real-life father, Charles Chan, and his long-time manager, Willie Chan. Uncle is known for his catchphrase "One more thing!" and hitting Jackie when he makes mistakes.

• Tohru (voiced by Noah Nelson) is a large sumo-sized Japanese man who is skilled in wrestling-like combat. He is introduced as an enforcer for the Dark Hand in the first season before reforming and becoming an ally of the Chans in the season one finale. He later serves as Uncle's magic apprentice until becoming a full chi wizard in the series finale. In the "Hey, Jackie..." segment of the show, Chan stated that Tohru is based on numerous stunt men he worked with.

Section 13

Section 13 is a secret government agency led by Captain Black that Jackie works for.

• Captain Augustus Black (voiced by Clancy Brown) is the leader of Section 13 and a longtime friend of Jackie. A skilled crime-fighting specialist, he is initially skeptical of magic but gradually assists the Chan family in dealing with magical threats, though he often struggles to convince his superiors that magic is real.

• Kepler (voiced by John DiMaggio) is an engineer and inventor at Section 13 who remains skeptical of magic and is often too focused on his work to notice events happening around him. He creates several useful inventions for the Chans, including a jetpack and chronoton beams.
