Donald got comics in Sweden that characterized him completely differently than how he's shown in the US. I think he's a much better character there.
Donald was always a more appealing character to me than Mickey Mouse because he's so relateable. He has trouble with love and with money and he's impulsive and impatient.
Mickey, on the other hand, is such a nothing-character. He's basically just a brand mascot at this point, with no recognizeable character traits.
And while there are iterations of Mickey that actually give him a personality, it's much less consistent than Donald.
And I don't understand why anyone likes Minnie either. She has exactly one more character trait than Mickey, and it's "girl". Which is just a perfect little example of patriarchy's normalisation of manhood and why the 1900s sucked at writing female characters
Yeah they probably only created Minnie just to have a female character, without thinking about trivial stuff like a personality. Same for Smurfette
Oh, Smurfette is actually interesting. Smurfs are a single-gender species in nature, but Smurfette was created by an evil wizard to inflitrate the smurfs and help the wizard capture them. So the fact that her only personality trait is "girl" is actually diagetically justified and it can lead into some interesting directions. That said, after breaking free from her programming she has the personality traits of guilt for her past actions and appreciating a new family. So there's actually a bare minimum of depth there and tons of room to grow the story and the character in interesting directions, though unfortunately that promise wasn't really explored because... it's the fucking smurfs
I never thought I would read Smurf lore, but here we are.
Also the smurfs are anarcho-communists
