After Sleeping beauty virtually every female Disney protoganist has the exact same personality. The headstrong spunky independent girl with little to no character flaws or in fact any other personality traits aside from maybe being a little too naive in her headstrongyness who wants MOOOOORRREEE. Even and especially if she’s already royalty. In recent years most also mysteriously know kungfu and great pains are taken to show that they don’t need no man.

Regarding the little to no character flaws, care to explain how exactly that was different from Snow White, Cinderella, or Aurora? I really don’t recall them having any real character flaws besides being a little naïve and wanting more.

But yeah, I kinda agree, though I’d change it from Sleeping Beauty to The Little Mermaid. At least the Little Mermaid was more closer to those three than the ones after her starting with Belle. Ariel managed to do a lot of badass things, yet still had no problems settling down with a man, and in fact, she willingly tried to go for her man, and for her dreams. And she didn’t castrate her love, Eric, in the process, either. Not to mention, quite honestly, I was more impressed with Ariel and respectful of her than I was of the character she was based on (sorry, but I honestly thought the original character was just sickening, simply could not sympathize with her, especially when her plan of gaining an immortal soul essentially amounted to her giving the prince a dementor’s kiss upon marriage, and it seemed she was more concerned with gaining an immortal soul than she was of the prince. And then there’s the fact that she didn’t even fix the messes she caused and if anything made them even worse with her suicide.).
