It's not that popular. See, the Kung Fu Panda franchise mainly focuses on the relationships between the animal characters. So a fanfiction involving a human and Tigress is a bit of a stretch. Most fans are more interested in the existing relationships within the movie, like the relationship between Po and his friends or the different animal clans. But there are still a few fans out there who might be into this kind of cross - species fanfiction for the novelty factor.
One possible fanfiction could be about Baby Tigress' training days. Maybe she was the smallest among the young animals training in the Jade Palace but had the fiercest determination. She could be shown struggling with some of the basic moves at first, like how to properly execute a paw swipe. But with time and the guidance of Master Shifu, she gradually overcomes her difficulties and starts to shine among her peers.
There could be a fanfiction where Po and Tigress go on a special adventure together. Maybe they discover a new martial arts technique that combines Po's unique style with Tigress's strength and precision. They might face a new enemy that challenges their relationship and forces them to work even closer.
In the Kung Fu Panda series, their story is mainly centered around their growth in kung fu and their friendship within the Furious Five. Po is often clumsy but has a big heart, and Tigress is the strong and serious one. They support each other in battles and in training, but not in a romantic way.
Well, a lot of times the storylines revolve around the human being a sort of outsider who disrupts Tigress's normal life. For example, the human might accidentally stumble into the Valley of Peace and Tigress is initially suspicious but then realizes the human has a pure heart. They then embark on a journey together, perhaps to fight a new threat that neither could face alone. There are also storylines where the human has a connection to an ancient prophecy that involves Tigress, and they must figure out how to fulfill it together, with lots of character growth and adventure along the way.
A fanfiction plot could be centered around a human who accidentally stumbles into the Kung Fu Panda universe. Tigress mistakes the human for a threat. The human tries to explain but in the chaos, a fight breaks out. The human, though not as strong as Tigress, is very resourceful. Tigress is impressed by the human's tenacity and they form an unlikely alliance to face a greater threat in the Kung Fu Panda world.
Their relationship could start with mutual distrust. The human might be afraid of Tigress' strength and Tigress could be skeptical of the human's capabilities. But as they face challenges together, like fighting off common enemies, they start to respect each other. For example, the human might save Tigress from a trap using their quick thinking, and Tigress in turn protects the human from a powerful foe.
One idea could be a human discovers the world of Kung Fu Panda and befriends Tigress. They go on a journey to find a long - lost Kung Fu technique. Along the way, they face various challenges that test their friendship and skills.
In some Kung Fu Panda fanfiction, if Tigress is kidnapped, it could be a plot device to show the other characters' growth. For example, Po might have to step up even more in her absence, relying on his own skills and the teachings of Master Shifu. He could also learn to trust his instincts better when trying to rescue her. The Furious Five minus Tigress would also have to work together in new ways, perhaps revealing hidden strengths or weaknesses. This kind of situation can create a lot of tension and character development within the fanfiction world.
A common theme is self - discovery. Since Tigress is a complex character, many fanfictions explore her journey to understand herself better, like her emotions and her place in the world of kung fu.
