Casimir Pulaski Day - Jayfeather PMV

[@Starrykitkat1]

I could be wrong, but can't Jayfeather see Starclan, so when his mother dies, he sees her face in Starclan, and he'd never seen it before. Somehow, if that's true, it makes me sadder almost. It solidifies that she is completely gone... This is so lovely.

[@spadedace24]

(Idk if you meant can’t at the beginning) but yes! He can see in Starclan so yea that’s the first time he saw his mother :)

[@bananacrispies]

I'm pretty sure he's seen Leafpool either in his dreams (powers) or in starclan before. He's definitely seen her using his powers, he used them to see Leafpool running away with Crowfeather when he looked into her memories when she told him that it wasn't a lie that she was his mother I'm pretty sure. Edit: just looked it up but yes he had a vision of Squirrelflight and Leafpool trekking through the snow, he's seen them both.

@@bananacrispies ohhh right, been a while, thanks !

[@Starrykitkat1]

@@bananacrispies ah I hadn't realized

[@michellevoorheesshilovince6920]

From what I know the three(dove, lion and jay) "lost" their powers after the battle, StarClan only granted jay to be allowed to see in sleep, so Leafpool kinda returned to him like a normal StarClan cat. After all, Dove cant hear so far and lion isn't indistructebale anymore. So this seems right 🤷

[@radiiclaws8068]

Personally I think Leafpool’s death would’ve impacted Jayfeather a little bit more than it did Lionblaze bcs Lion has a family, he has grandkits now, but Jayfeather is mostly alone. He has friends in the clan but after loosing Briarlight as well I think the lose of Leafpool would’ve gutted him. I love my sad little Meowy man

[@MariadeKleuver-sf6em]

Sad little meowy man🤣🤣 I know it’s sad but I love that word

[@Littlestars_io]

Yea in the extra scene I would’ve hoped Jayfeather didn’t gave in so easily

[@delicate1917]

Oh God this made me actually tear up It's rare seeing natural and healthy grief in warrior cats, this is beautiful

[@almondsun]

AAA- THE EMOTIONS!! You really potrayed Jayfeather's grief and frustrated sadness here so well, I also love how you added Alderheart to grieve together with him!! And I adore the backgrounds and leaf symbolism here, another heartwarming and inspiring pmv/short from you that never fails to amaze me!! :D

[@Crimson_Mushroom]

Ikr!!!

[@its-me-river]

This was sooo sad! Jayfeather had a harder life than most people realize. He felt like he wasn’t good enough because of his blindness, and he was very insecure. Later he lost his sister, Hollyleaf, who he loved very much, and then his mother, Leafpool. 😢 He deserved better.

[@anniescott5964]

i LOVE this- this actually proves that jayfeather isn't all grumpy- he has a soft heart inside. and he chooses to open it up to certain people. so sweet

[@ggilmorewannabe]

I looooved this map so much. You really potrayed jayfeathers feelings and I myself pictured this is how he would have felt himself. Currently crying, I love my cute meow cats

[@crumblyairship]

i've watched this probably seven times and i JUST now noticed that Leafpool and Jayfeather have the same facial markings (i'm typing this through my tears)

[@____Kontur_Tesna____]

the style is beautiful, my God, how glad I am that so many talented people love warrior cats, it's just a miracle😭✨🧡

[@Emiliez0724]

You never seize to amaze me, I am absolutely in love with how you drew Starclan!

[@harriertailx8797]

this was so pretty!!! I love the colours and the designs- the matching circles on Leaf and Jays faces!!! love the design for starclan territory too

[@felisadidas4932]

God I ADORE the colours in this. I'm in LOVE with these simple backgrounds. Like genuinely I want to learn how to make them. And the character designs are great and just AGH I love this so much

[@ChristineSG19]

1:25 is such an amazing scene

[@ljbds5]

I genuinely think this is one of my favorite PMVs ever due to the subtlety and raw emotion showcased through the expressions, pallets, and environments. Excellent work!! ❤️

[@ember-fire7583]

This turned out so beautiful, very lovely. I loved the color pallete, expressions and the way you showed the grief and pain here after Leafpools passing. It's not something that's actually shown well, or at all in the books so I'm very happy to see you depict it so well here. Wonderful job.

[@4shfur]

talk about sad!! the lost stars bonus scene totally crushed me, jayfeather and leafpool have one of the most interesting relationships in warriors imo. but also this is awesome?? your art is amazing, all the backgrounds and characters were drawn so well.

[@Amaryllis7190]

Even though you say your not very happy with the product, it still looks AMAZING and I love the backgrounds and the way that you express the feelings that Jayfeather feels throughout the PMV makes me feel like I can feel what he feels to. This is very moving and I'm almost crying-

[@Frostfern94]

I cried so much at this! I was not expecting to cry, oh man Jayfeather reacting to Leafpool's death always made me so sad though

[@tacohead7429]

This is actually gorgeous the colors, the backgrounds, the scenery, the character designs, the expressions it’s all so perfect! It’s like I was in the book!

[@ashtrall]

The way I’m sobbing. Damn. You really got me there. I always enjoy pmvs that explore feelings further than the books. The emotion in here is so pure and raw. Things like these make the characters better. Amazing work representing this bit!

[@Blue-mj5gm]

I actually cried. It's been a while since an animation made my cry. The expressions are just so good May I add I'm in love with the backgrounds 😍

[@reverieprince]

i love this song so much and you complimented its vibe perfectly with your art! you're incredible at portraying emotions and the symbolism is so good as well... the part where jayf crouches down next to leafpool's body and the leaves fall to cover him... this entire pmv is so exquisitely painful

[@Emz-Paws]

I was looking for a vid to watch while I carve a stick to look like Jayfeathers- this got my attention

[@bashfulwolfo6499]

First of all, these designs are amazing and adorable. The backgrounds are gorgeous too, and I love that you made StarClan into a forest, it’s how I always imagined it and it’s so nice to see it in a similar manner. Second of all, man my feelings were attacked. The death of a loved one makes you unsure how to feel, as there’s too many emotions to experience at once. There was a lot I could relate to, which always makes me feel better as it tells me that I’m not alone with this.

[@sunpeltanimations65]

That was so beautiful 😭

[@charlotteoneill5199]

The art of this is so beautiful. Its so emotional too. You really told the story well.

[@roaringtornado9925]

as soon as i saw it was a sufjan stevens song i knew i was going to cry. what a beautiful PMV

[@immilknahap]

your PMV is always stunning

[@honeyyhop]

oh this is just so gorgeous, you captured his grief and story so perfectly ahghh h

[@squishies4life123]

God the colours in this are so beautiful… absolutely stunning

[@MilettyAnimations]

This is probably one of my favourite warriors related videos. You tell the story so well and the entire video is so captivating due to the pleasant art and how well you show emotions in the characters. It’s so good!

[@hiyenas]

this tore my heart open thank you (no but seriously, its almost been one year since i lost my dad and this hit hard and was also kinda cathartic in a way, great video)

[@subtleshenanigans5983]

This is lovely. I also really like how you design the cats (both pelt style and just general body shape), it’s very pleasing to look at. Poor Jay, he’s still my fave character.

[@Cherivinca]

GUHHHH THIS IS SO PRETTY!! I love how pretty the color are in his dream/starclan sequence and then he wakes up and everything is desaturated and Real... it's such a pretty effect, and this is! So sad!! I love things that depict grief and this does it so beautifully 😢

[@featherdeer4635]

Holy shit this was so beautiful!!! Gosh, i wasn't expecting to cry today, but like, this hit right in the feels ;-; amazing job!!

[@rattiecake542]

Im bawling!! This pmv was so emotive!

[@kingskyless]

this is soo so pretty...the paint strokes, the color palettes, the EMOTION, its so so nice and so sad

[@pyrook4074]

this was so genuinely sweet, i love when bonds between family and friends are highlighted in art. it was clear that leaf and jay were especially close! amazing work!

[@iSpellKatt]

I just wanted to say that wow your art is beyond incredible! the way you draw characters and backgrounds is so beautiful, and I love how well the story was told as well just all on all good job on this video. Can't wait to see more ^^

[@bwo2004]

Wow! I love this who is the other cat with jayfeather and alderheart? Edit~ ohhh nvm

[@ivanlaranitavecina1639]

Yep, marine services? My house is full of water, I guess, my tears.

[@goblinofsharksnacks]

In squirrelflight's hope it was more centred around squirrelflight and leafpool when she died, jayfeather was just a bit of an ass, but we obvs dont see his pov there or his reaction when she initially died

[@shannondrummond6222]

Is the dead cat leaf pool

[@Rosia4309]

Yep

[@Phantom_Of_Fandoms]

Briarlight nex-

[@softlyboos5684]

Cry

[@Elizabeth-xr4be]

I don’t actually understand why people could be so grieving about Leafpool’s death bc I always wanted her dead since the third arch. I’m happy the authors killed her finally. If someone objects - that’s their opinion, I just voiced out my opinion. Anyways, I was shocked to see such an underrated style and all the painting and the storyline - SMOOTH!

[@fabplays6559]

Can I just ask- was this really necessary to say?

[@kiwii.._46]

JAY IS NIT BLIND

[@CattopiaCatTwinkleToes]

I LOVE THIS!!!
