Catra || Redemption (A Character Study)

Catra will definitely go down as one of my favourite fictional characters ever. Season 5 was so amazing and I’m really glad Catra got her redemption arc because she deserved love. So here is a Catra Edit (#CatraEdit) / Catra AMV (#CatraAMV) / Catra Tribute (#CatraTribute).

Little did Catra know how much she really mattered to Adora

[@LordScrub619]

Ehhhhhhhhh considering the abuse of shadow weaver that she continued to let happen (btw Catra told her many times to make it clear for her way back in episode 1 all the way to season 5) and what we learned in season five about how their friendship started as kids and with the promise that she also broke in episode 1..... idk anymore, like seriously after watching season five it makes watching previous seasons painful now that you know the full story of Shadow weaver’s abuse of Catra, how Catra’s relationship to Adora started as kids and how Adora who claims to love Catra literally left her and the friends she grew up with in a literal hell hole.... yea she’s objectively the “good guy” but WOW she’s a fucked up person considering the way she switched up on her old friends without even trying to Bring them to the good side or even just get them out of there. And the funny thing is you think that in season 5 she’d understand that abandoning the people you care about the most was her one mistake that she should rectify/never make again but she does it multiple times even now with it all accumulating in one longing begging... plea for her stop this cycle: “Stay”

[@meganugget6979]

@@LordScrub619 I agree with a part of this but I also don't. When it came down to the abuse you have to remember Catra wasn't the only one. Though it was never physical to Adora she did emotionally abuse Adora into making her think her life doesn't matter and refusing to accept any form of love. She even did it in season 5 in the failsafe episode. And Adora did stand up for Catra when she knew it was happening. I don't remember what season it was from but when Catra was being held and told stuff by Shadow Weaver Adora jumped in front of Shadow Weaver and took apart of the blame herself. There were definetly other times when we see Shadow Weaver do something to Catra but whenever there isn't an interjection Adora is never there. And even before she left she said "I don't want you to get in trouble for what I do. I'll be back before anyone notices I'm gone." She left Catra there because she didn't want her to get in trouble. And even when she's in Thaymor she grabs Catra's hand and tells her to come with her to the good side. So to say she didn't try to bring Catra to the good side is actually not true. And she really did love Catra. She never wanted to leave Catra, she left the Horde. She tried to bring Catra but Catra refused. Leaving Catra was her biggest mistake, she said that. But she also said she never wanted to leave her. In a note in a She-Ra book, she even said that she misses so many things about Catra. But she did what she thought was right. And after leaving the Horde she never abandoned Catra, at that point Catra was always abandoning her.

[@crazyweirdgabes3894]

@@meganugget6979 ya this is what I wanted to say lolol

[@m1sh474]

@@meganugget6979 of course Catra abandoned Adora after she left. It's a coping mechanism to not let anyone near her again. It is not an excuse, as we see she started to do the right thing by acknowledging this first, then trying to work around allowing people and trust them. She doesn't trust anybody, the only one she trusted was Adora and she left her alone (for a good cause)

[@ayceinquisitor190]

@@meganugget6979 it's been a while since I saw seasons 1-4 but I dont recall Adora ever really taking responsibility for the damage she personally caused to Catra. After everything Catra endured prior to the series start, Adora left and never came back. Catra made things explicitly clear, "Why didnt you leave when they hurt *me*?" So ofc she rejected Adora. I realized it only a couple days ago after watching s5 for like, the 5th time, but the mystacor/fail-safe episode? Catra overhears Adora communicate to *Shadow Weaver* (no one else!) that she couldn't transform into She-Ra, and SW was right to say that she was letting her emotions distract her, but that's when things made sense: Adora is easily manipulated. Netossa tells her "dont hold back, they wont" when fighting chipped Spinerella, but backs down when Perfuma says "we dont throw tanks at our friends." She doesn't listen to Catra, specifically, too. She finds Catra ungrateful when they rescue her from Prime, even when she said, repeatedly, she didn't want/ask for Adora to get her. *Anybody* could've taken the fail-safe and made the sacrifice, but only She-Ra would survive, so when Catra heard Adora tell SW she couldn't become She-Ra, the point for Adora to do it became moot. SW *was* trying to sacrifice Adora, it was strategic. She made Adora defensive, reinforcing her "chosen one" role. Catra got upset because Adora wasn't making any choices of her own; she wouldnt take autonomy. And yet, once again, Adora chooses self-sacrifice over listening to Catra. I can understand that there was the weight of believing that the fate of the entire universe rested on her shoulders alone being immense, but Adora wasn't a good friend either. She abandoned Bow and Glimmer on the way to the Heart, not listening to them, either. Easily manipulated.

[@jowankhalid7216]

they portrayed it so beautifully. the fact that catra was conditioned as a child to think that power meant safety (shadow weavers mental and physical abuse 'adoras better' 'adoras stronger' 'adoras smarter' baby catra saw adora not get hurt because she was better than her and she thought that she'd be safe if she was like that too) and her repression of her feelings towards adora because they were taught it makes you weak, she didnt know what the emotions were, or why she even had them, she couldn't control them which made her spiral even more. her redemption was realising that adora didnt leave because she didnt want/love her, but because she chose to accept her destiny as she-ra, and as soon as catra stopped repressing her love for adora, she began to change, and realised that her anger was towards the unknown emotions that she couldnt control and not adora herself.

From friends to rivals....from rivals to bitter enemies....from enemies to allies....from allies to reconnect friends....from friends....to lovers. If this is not one of the best characters developers since ZUKO.......then nothing is.

[@ghostlyhedgehog2683]

Zuko didn’t almost destroy the world and wasn’t as abusive to everyone around him, Zuko did care about people in an Agni Kai he spared General Zhao when he could have scarred him for live just like what his father did to him, Catra almost destroyed the world out of spite also showed little mercy on her crew she pushed and was abusive to everyone around her. Eventually leaving Entrapta to presumably die on the feared Beast Island. Zuko was an jerk but his actions were never destroy the world evil or leave someone presumably to die. Making his redemption much more acceptable to be put with the main hero cast.

@@Kusanagikaiser999 thank you i loved how you put this in words it explains more than what the person you were talking to about. and I believe this is one of the best character redemption and development since Zuko

[@leaf515]

@@Kusanagikaiser999 I agree with you but i feel like her redemption was rushed like zuko started to do small nice things from season 1 and more and more nice things in season 2 and 3, I didn't see that with catra, yes she did let them go in season 1 (I think) but for the rest of the seasons (besides 5) there was nothing. She only started the road of redemption in season 5 which only has 13 episodes also with the charecters, team avatar didn't trust zuko at all when the first joined their group, they gradually accepted him, but with she rá they all accepted catra off the bat even if she tried to destroy the world so many times, bow automatically accepted her but not his best friend glimmer who did the same thing once not knowing the consequences. I see a lot of potential in her arc but sadly it felt rushed

[@jonrulz5771]

@@leaf515 While I can see how it seem's like it is rushed. I think it was done in a brilliant way. Catra has been shown to have psychological problems throughout the series. She was raised to be bad. She was raised to do all the bad things she has done. If you put yourself in the shoes of Catra, being raised as such, It's a much deeper psychological problem that plays out through the whole series. She could have gone complete mad, if she didn't yet already. she became complete choas and destruction. But there were glimps of hope for her In many instances. Especially when they had Catra and Adora together in the first ones area with light hope or w/e don't exactly remember. but It showed the past and present. It showed just how CLOSE they were and could still be. But Catra is misunderstood, and her mindset is toxic. She would not open up and she could never until she hit rock bottom. She had to learn for herself who she is, and what all these emotions she has really meant. To me, everything that led up to this point made perfect sense. And I was oblivious to all the signs of "catradora" It seemed so subtle, only the people really looking for it would have noticed. Her character was hard to understand for me, until I learned what the real cause behind her actions were. It was the feeling of the one person you thought you knew your entire life and loved them like no other, abandoning you like you are nothing. It was what set her off. Adora leaving was the beginning of her going mad, and adora being there for her is the end to the madness. Love is the strongest emotion anyone can ever feel, and it can make u do the craziest shit. I don't believe it was rushed, and with such a bigger bad in the mists.. everyone was accepting. Catra did save Glimmer after all, and apologized for everything. While i do believe more conflict should have been there, it might have been out of character. The whole show is about support and love. You can just tell by how even the male characters like bow act. Not supporting Catra when she let herself go, became vulnerable, and sacrificed herself to save glimmer. I don't think Bow or Glimmer would protest against that. I don't see it in their characters.

[@rezkel7404]

Ahh, what a fun ride.

[@kasterborous9246]

Thanks! I’m glad you liked it 💛

[@lollipop959]

And it was insane sad and happy

[@MishaHusnainAli]

I thought long and hard about why Catra's arc resonates with me so much. The truth is that there are a lot of people out there, myself included, that had bad childhoods and grew up internalising the idea that we are worth nothing and showing vulnerability will only make everyone hurt us or leave us. We are Catra, and when your one close friend, your other half, decides to leave you broken without a glance to be with new, mentally healthier and happier people and make a new destiny for herself, it feels like the worst kind of abandonment. You close yourself off further, lash out, and convince yourself you don't care about them. You hate them for what they did to you and you want to break them down or elevate yourself to the point where nobody will have to see you vulnerable again. Finally, in season five, we get to see Catra laid bare. Her hair is gone, she's been through the emotional wringer. She's basically decided to end it all by freeing Glimmer because she knows she will get caught and that's the end of her because Prime will not forget. She's given up and truly believes she is not worthy of love and will never have what she wants. And then she's rescued, but she still doesn't know how to get past all those barriers she's set up all her life and just be vulnerable. We start to see her open up, learn and grow. She uses her ears and tail more to express her emotions. She realises what she wants is a life filled with love and Adora and that she'll have to change to get it. It gives me hope for all of us. Inside so many of us there is an angry, scared little kid that learned very early in life that vulnerability and opening up to people is dangerous because it hurts. Catra's arc shows me that it's possible to change, even after you've done so many horrible things that you can't figure out how to start atoning. You can still grow and be better and get what you want and be happy. Catra shows me it's not too late for me to get a redemption arc and happiness.

I think people have trouble reconciling with Catra's redemption because she hit absolute rock bottom before clawing her way back out of a hole she dug herself. Honestly, I think that makes it even better.

[@ryanalexander8212]

This is the best Catra redemption video I’ve seen. I’m a straight white male and this show brought tears to my eyes. I never stopped believing in you Catra! Remember, opening up your heart makes you vulnerable, but it doesn’t make you weak, and it’s always worth it!

[@ryanalexander8212]

Happy Catradora day everyone. Here is another great character study video I recommend: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6PWfIObnNxkisk

[@heyadorahowsithanging3786]

This is what I like about the Show. Other kids shows make Villains only seem like Villains. But this one is Completely Different. This show gives us the Ability to Empathize with the Villains. Give us time to make understand the Characters. Catra became my Favorite not because I thought she was Pretty. But because I can see myself in her. We somewhat have the same Personality. I feel the same Pain as her. But Catra herself is Deeper than any other Character in the show. I'm Glad I watched this Show 🥺🥺🥺❤️🖤

[@kasterborous9246]

It baffles me that Cartoons like Rick and Morty are “adult” but this isn’t. I always forget that she-ra is a show. designed for a younger Audience The way it handles issues like abuse and trauma is commendable and better then most teen adult shows. Aside from Horde Prime I’d say that every single character is so complex that they could all be the hero of the story 💛

[@abramsb9819]

I can tell the people behind this show must have either some experience in this abuse, or maybe are really skilled in psychology. The show represents Catra as not exactly a ‘villain’ per-say, but a VERY misguided and abused character. There was a time when I thought it was going to be *impossible* to redeem catra, but I was wrong. I don’t think I ever understood a truly amazing redemption ark before catra. She comes to terms with the fact that she was the one who made the mistakes and pushed adora away, not the other way around. And the way she redeems herself is beautiful. She sacrifices her life to make up for all her mistakes, and the “I’m sorry, okay!” Is beautiful. It would take someone who truly understands they were in the wrong, to work up the courage to say that immediately, and not make excuses. Even after Adora saves her, she still tells herself and adora that she doesn’t matter. It is an act of selflessness, true and just. She isn’t trying to save herself. She knows she’s throwing away her life (at least that’s what she thinks) and she’s ready to make that sacrifice. The crew behind she ra NEEDS to make an adult show (not saying this isn’t one, but it looks like a kids show, which hides the older audiences from seeing it). The comedy, the characters, the lgbtq representation, and the psychological struggle within them ALL (adora thinks she can’t make any decisions that are about benefiting her, bow is the one to stay happy and cheerful so he has trouble getting angry when he should, glimmer lost her mom and is super self conscious and hard on herself, and catra is, well, CATRA.) I think shadow weaver abused catra because she really did remind her of herself, and shadow weaver hates herself. Either way, thanks for reading this, have a good day, and TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS SHOW ITS FREAKING BEAUTIFUL IT SHOULD GET AN EMMY!!! IT SHOULD BE ON TV SOMEDAY NOT JUST NETFLIX ITS A CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE AHHH!!!

Catra thought no one cared about her, in the end all she had to do was accept someone’s love for her, and that person was her childhood friend/lover adora, had it not been for catra, adora would’ve definitely died at the end.

[@giuseppepiuma1965]

If you think about it, many say the kiss saved universe when, really, it didn't. Adora sacrificing herself would still save the universe, while killing her and Catra. Their love saved themselves, in an emotional and litteral way. Truly beautiful imo.

@@giuseppepiuma1965 Adora accepting Catra’s love brought shera

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

@@giuseppepiuma1965 Not really. Adora sacrificing herself would've killed her and Catra (the main ship of the show, as GlimBow, Scorfuma, and Netossa are axillary ships to Catradora), as we don't want to know if the ensuing energy wave that followed would've defeated Horde Prime (most likely not, since along with magic, love is Horde Prime''s 2nd weakness). As it stands, Adora accepting Catra's love brought out She-Ra, allowing her to pull a Dues Ex Machina to basically save herself, revive a dead Catra, and banish Horde Prime hopefully forever after purging him from Hordak.

[@ryanalexander8212]

I have to agree, even if the failsafe was activated, It was Shera who personally destroyed Horde Prime. Without Catra, that would not have happened.

Some people might say that those stuff don't "turn" someone into the "bad guy", and yeah, they could be right, but that plus the way she was raised... i feel sorry for her, i love her so much and i was SO happy when she finally got the happy ending she deserved ❤

[@thewolfofgallifrey5961]

Overwhelmed by anger and feelings of betrayal, a want for acceptance gnawing at her soul with little idea of how to truly get it, succumbing the her darker impulses... But it all came crashing down regardless. The empire she'd been trying to build crumbling beneath her feet. Then taken by a force of pure evil, her fears brought to light and her mind violated. But then the broken road led to where it always had to lead: to the only guiding light she'd ever had in her life. Back to Adora. Back to friendship and warmth. And love. Thus is Catra, who's been through the darkness and come out the other side, a better woman than before and with the love she'd always secretly wanted now hers.

Catra & Adora are proof that friendships can still be saved, even if both parties still believe that it's impossible. Simply beautiful

[@rebeccachia]

Wow, that was a huge rollercoaster you gave me to shatter my heart. It was so good!

[@kasterborous9246]

Thanks 😊

[@niamhxx4759]

I just watched 6 minutes of something that made me tear up 🥺

[@xerd448]

3:51 this part killed me

[@Em-jj2hp]

Catra’s hair being cut was a metaphor since hair carries trauma and pain. When it was all chopped off, so were her traumas and limiting beliefs and she was in a new beginning

[@atlas1511]

TW The BIGGEST thing about Catra that hurt me is something that isnt even directly addressed: when Shadow Weaver is in her cell and caresses Catra's hair tufts, the next time we see her, they're gone. It's because Catra knew it was one last attempt to manipulate her, so she got rid of them. Thing is, we knew how unstable she was, how little she cared about her own health. She wouldn't have taken the time to cut them. She almost definitely just grabbed them, and ripped them out. Also, whenever she needs to repress her feelings, she runs her claws through her hair.

[@kasterborous9246]

Oh my god I’d never thought about that like I thought her hair just changed with her new look (which was one that she choose to make her look more confident and authoritative). But canonically her ripping out her hair makes so much sense for her character.

[@ProblematicBeach]

That makes a painful amount of sense...how dare you make me cry like this.....

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

The thing is, I think Catra still loved her long hair, tufts & all. After all, when we see her mind controlled by Horde Prime, she has a short pixie cut rather than the wild mane she's had for the past 4 seasons.

[@kode-man23]

I clicked on this wondering how anyone could explain this and do it justice in only 6 minutes. I was not expecting beautiful art.

The promised crata and adora made when they were kids was adorable and they kept it and protected each other like in season 1 crata protected her form being found out by the Hored about being Shera and in the last season they protected each other and saved each other like how Carta saved adorable form dieing and they both confessed there love to each other they saved each other

[@Lucario4thewin]

Love can make or break you. Love can be your strength and your weakness Love can save or it can enslave.

[@yoloj3164]

This is so well done. Love Catra and her redemption and everything about this video

And here I am, again, crying at 3am because of catdora edits.

Same 😿

I do not even have the words for how beautiful that was

[@kasterborous9246]

Thank you so much. You are so kind 🤍

@@kasterborous9246 I started to make my own Catra video, but the place where I got the episodes from stopped working so I only have season 1(grrr). I was wondering if you could tell me where you got your episodes from?

[@kasterborous9246]

I got a large majority of scenes from KZbin (through using a KZbin downloader) and here www.picuki.com , I just searched for She-ra scene packs and similar terms. Good luck and tell me If you end up making that edit 🤍

Me encantó el video, fue excelente. Mi corazoncito duele y salta de alegría cada que veo a Catra, por su pasado tan sufrido y su final feliz en la serie. Amo tanto a este personaje ♥♥♥. Gracias por este video, es un trabajo estupendo.

[@ShoulderMonster]

Wow, I love the way this video is edited together! Sums up Catra's arc so well, it got me emotional ( ˊᵕˋ )

[@TheRociChic158]

I cried so much... this is beautiful!!

[@wintersoldier164]

I love catra's redemption, like I loved kylo ren's. But, I don't think most of etheria will agree about letting her walk around. She is a war criminal.

[@ag-dn1vl]

I’d imagine that it would have taken a long time for Mermista to forgive her, as well as really all of Etheria.

[@wandererlidia]

And so all out chests burst with pride at our kitten. Great vid, man.

sobbing again

[@enderdragonbro5547]

Nice profile pics,I was too into the show itself to even think of that

[@kyleerikson4971]

Mmm... that's the good stuff. Thank You for putting it out there, I really needed it today.

Thank you so much for leaving such a nice comment 💜

Catra is very... Azula esque. Poisonous, but manages to surpass that

[@phoenixamaro7677]

How did you make that so well I mean I’m sobbing over here!! 😭💕😂

[@kasterborous9246]

Awww thank you so much 💜 it’s means a lot that you liked it 😊

[@Fallendown-pq1ot]

A lot of people just put her as toxic and think her redemption wasn't well written. I just don't know anymore... I might re-watch She-Ra

[@kasterborous9246]

I think the show could’ve done more to redeem her in S5 but I understand they had little time and a million other things to do. I quite like Catra as a character and all her relationships (complex as they may be). You should totally rewatch it tho, you’ll have a great time 😊

[@elenaeldegel9549]

What a master piece of a show wowww

[@13keytide13]

Well done friend!

[@kasterborous9246]

Thanks 💜

I was surprised how well written Catra’s development was, and was also quite happy because AJ was the only reason I watched the show in the first place

[@kasterborous9246]

Catra and her development as a character was my favourite part of the show 😊
