臺灣動畫角色的風格深受迪士尼與日本動畫的影響，本研究透過分析迪士尼與日本的動畫長片之角色造型特色，與臺灣動畫長片角色進行對照，分析出臺灣動畫角色在藝術表現上之多元發展樣貌。迪士尼動畫具有可愛討喜的全年齡層取向、寫實化與誇張化並存、呼應個性的角色造型三個特徵。而日本動畫則有：造型多樣性、特殊的五官表現方式、裝飾性的線條及配件三個特徵。由這六項特徵與臺灣的動畫角色進行比較分析，得到臺灣的動畫角色具有結合成功案例與混入本土元素兩項設計習慣。借著提出這兩個特性對目前的臺灣動畫在藝術表現這一領域造成的影響，提供給往後的動畫創作者參考。

The style of animated film characters in Taiwan has long been influenced by the Japanese and the Disney animations. After investigating the features of the animated characters in Japan and Disney animations, this study revealed the variety and multi-faceted potential of character design in Taiwan. The Disney characters have the following features, including (1) adorability to all age groups, (2) coexistence of realism and exaggeration, and (3) strong connection between the character design and the personality setting. On the other hand, (1) various character designs, (2) unique comic-style faces, and (3) copious decorative lines and accessories are often recognized as features of Japanese animation style. The author summarizes two patterns of character design in Taiwan：One is the imitation of the above six features, and the other is the fusion of these features with the local elements of Taiwan. The author expects that the proposed patterns could serve as a modest spur inspiring more character artists to come forward with his valuable contributions.
