Bruno - Shy and Selfless
Even though he enters the movie about halfway through, Bruno is one of the most compelling characters. His shyness and awkwardness make him extremely endearing and relatable.

Dolores - Attentive and Excitable
Even though Dolores might have the fewest lines out of all the Encanto characters, she is still an intriguing and compelling character. Since Dolores' gift is a hyper-sensitive sense of hearing, she has learned that sometimes listening is more important than talking. She is quiet most of the time, preferring to listen instead of talking a lot. This makes her a very attentive person.
Since she thrives on listening, Dolores can be very excitable when she hears people talking about exciting things.
