DK's identity is more intact than ever with the new redesign. He's now able to more easily express the emotions they tried forcing on his old design that just never worked before, if that makes sense. The new design can do cool, goofy, angry, gentle, etc, and do them well! He's our same old DK!
I've seen a bit of hand-wringing about it, especially in the brief period after the redesign was revealed but before we knew about Bananza, when people were worried DK was losing his identity. But no, overall they haven't kicked up even a FRACTION of the flamewars the Adventure redesigns did.

Pauline's wild side is breaking through! My latest moveset drawing is of Pauline from the Donkey Kong series! Wanted her action oriented so I heavily based her on Bananza, but wanted to keep her an adult to pair better side-by-side with the other iconic Nintendo ladies of Smash!
One year ago today!! Went BANANAS! So happy I was able to record this one, won't ever be able to top it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxoX...
