Banjo's personality is very different from that of [[Kazooie]]'s. Banjo is a well-mannered, easygoing bear with a fondness for an easy life with little hardships. He uses "Mr." or "Mrs." when speaking to people and generally likes to help people out, which contradicts Kazooie's brash attitude. While he always means well, he sometimes comes off as a bit dimwitted and gullible. Banjo wanes a bit when it comes to his bravery - at times he will jump into a situation quickly, but other times he acts timid and doesn't want to commit. In all cases, however, he would much rather sit down and have either honey, pizza or a nap, suggesting he is somewhat lazy and is not searching for trouble. Throughout the series (mostly in ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts''), many characters including Banjo's allies have referred to Banjo as "stupid" and "fat", to which Banjo does not seem to mind due to his patience and manners. Banjo seems to have also picked up some of Kazooie's personality, as he occasionally uses insults and will sometimes makes sarcastic remarks (in ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'' for the most part). | Banjo's personality is very different from that of [[Kazooie]]'s.
