What if one of the cats was a magical girl and went through the sparkly transformation and had a cat costume and everything— and that would change nothing about warriors, but it would be so fun.
Whitethroat is the worst name in Arc 1.
Don't believe me?
Guess how many times -throat shows up again as a suffix in Warrior Cats after Whitethroat.
Guess.
I don't care for anyone on social media who compares their lives to others, unprompted, as some sort of 'gotcha' moment.
This is the Internet, if someone online says they are struggling, it is not for you to say otherwise. Have some courtesy.
If it were face-to-face, I guarantee your reaction would not be, "Well, I have it so much harder!" It is precisely because we are online that you can throw those opinions out there emboldened by being behind a screen.
Shame on you.
I feel like Harlan Guthrie is the opposite of a queer baiter.
John and Arthur are being pushed as being almost aggressively straight and platonic in the last few episodes so that no one can ship them anymore.
He's two steps away from declaring that John and Arthur share a brother bond or are like father and son, lol.
I feel like fans tend to ignore the line between "fictional kitty society" and "intentional veiled commentary of real world societal issues" when it comes to critiquing Warrior Cats.
When you read a piece of media, you will always come away from it with two seperate interpretations.
What the author intended
What the reader interpreted
Like, I don't think the Bumble thing was a commentary on abusive relationships in real life, and I don't think, based on how Kate or Vicky talk about and treat Warrior Cats, that it was intended that way, for instance.
—But, the parallels are there for those with eyes to see them, and I think it's worth noting that the fandom treats her situation as if it were supposed to be interpreted that way to start with— as an analogue for real abuse— and are incensed by the way the topic was handled.
Similar to Bumble, I see this with cats like Snowkit, or cats like Jayfeather, who, at the time of their being authored, were very likely not intended to convey the authors' stance on disability.
And, if Jayfeather were to do that then the best thing you can possibly say about his portrayal is that came from a well-intentioned, well-meaning place.
To summarize, I don't think Jayfeather or any other situation / character in Warriors is or was—
Intended to be an offensive caricature / stereotype
Purposefully demeaning to children or older readers with a similar disability, or in a similar situation as to what has been portrayed in Warriors thus far
That his character or any other character comes from a place of bad faith, or underlying bias
—even if some readers feel otherwise.
YOU GUYS. I DID IT!
CHECK THIS OUUUUT
CTHULHU VOCALOID
Tigerstar death scene but he's Caesar and all the Clan Cats come at him with knives (claws) at a Gathering or something.
What if Warrior Cats had executions? Like, guillotine, hangings, etc. How absolutely sick would that be? Let's behead Splashtail.
I know why Harlan gave Parker a Brooklyn accent— But, it was also very jarring to me as someone who always pictured Parker as a first-generation Asian American.
Welp. Egg on my face, I guess.
Kayne fans who now hate him after 52 are FAKE. I love it when he’s an evil bastard :)
TRUEEEEEE I LOVE KAYNE AND THE SOUNDS OF HIS BARE FEET SLAPPING THE FLOOR
