This is so fun, I love the retro style of the whole thing, and the designs are super recognizable despite the simple shapes and bright colors. Just fantastic all the way through.
I just realized there is an apple and a maple leaf in the corners, and then they get turned upside down when its revealed Appledusk had been cheating! It’s such a fun detail. I can’t stop reawatching this, it’s just so great!
0:11 I love the little detail of Mapleshade having *four* hearts surrounding her, but Appledusk only having *one.* Even if it wasn't intentional, it's absolutely amazing, because it really shows how obsessed Mapleshade was, and how little care Appledusk had to her. Edit: I do know that Appledusk cared for her enough to have kits with her, but she was always the side chick. I feel like Apple had a right to be pissed over Maple (unintentionally) killing their kits, even if him “cheating” on Maple was wrong.
I keep thinking about frecklewish meeting maple's kits for the first time, like _"oh wow, looking at these kits i can definitely see my brother. They look just like birchface"_ as if one of the kits doesn't have an actual green apple for a head.
At First I was like, hmmmm she seems a bit clingy but this seems ok, i'm kinda worried that hes cheating Tho... Also me afterwards : OH GOD OH FUCK DONT GO INTO THAT RIVER MAPLE WHAT ARE U DOING
perchpaw closing in on mapleshade is such a subtle but sublime detail, right before the very last frame where she ends up in the dark forest. incredible
I CANNOT GET over this, the style smacked me back to the retro commercials and old cartoon network shows and you captured the attitude perfect in the entire video. What an absolute delIGHT I can't stop watching it. The fact you just hit ALL the elements of her story too even to folks who hadn't read the book, IT'S SO READABLE AND OVERALL JUST WONDERFUL. Amazing work! XD
absolutely obsessed with how this video starts, with how everyone is looking towards the scandal about to take place in the clans. Ik it's so minor but it feels so fitting for the art style and for the original story itself, this whole thing being the gossip of the clans. idk. I'm not describing it well but I just really enjoy especially how you started this video on so many levels and I haven't seen any comments about that.
I specifically love the bit where apple looks uncomf and it transitions to him in a birdcage, like she wishes to trap him. Also the part where she holds his head. The hints to maples obsessiveness are great.
This is one of the best artistic renditions of Mapleshade’s Vengeance I’ve ever seen before. The combination of the horror undertones and the meme-y graphics and expressions makes for an even more chilling experience, as well as puts a light to the fact that this is what we (i.e. the warriors fandom) read as children. Definitely watched this more than once to soak it all in. Absolutely gorgeous, keep up the amazing work!
I adore everything in this video; the character designs (i adore how goofy/ lazy and apple shaped appledusk is and i love the shape of his mouth for some reason. Also devil maple design is my beloved), the colours, editing and just the whole aesthetic in general. The RL imagery is fun as well and also helps with some of the creepiness. The shot where maple is holding appledusks head is fun but also really creepy, especially with the hints of obsessiveness that maple shows, really helps with it. There's also the part where apple looks uncomf and it transitions to him in a birdcage, like she wishes to trap him. Overall, this video is fun and I love it dearly. Great job!
By far one of the most INCREDIBLE PMVs out there, hot damn!!! The retro style is so unique and you have a MASTERY of matching the beat (especially with Frecklewish/Appledusk/Ravenwing’s deaths!) Fantastic job man!!!
This PMV is truly AMAZING!!!! Though I think one of my favorite little details is how Mapleshade kinda takes on the look of a deer; With her long legs, spots around her body, and fluffy white tail. It’s like she’s playing the role of the innocent deer, only later become the hunter.
I love how the animation looks like something from Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon in the early 2000s, the lore looks interesting and the characters are really expressive.
i cannot BELIEVE you thought to use this UPA/60s sitcom style with warriors its genius. "rooty toot toot" + mapleshade. truly a sublime combination, just MEANT to be. the song is also a bop and the cut is so well edited. a madman you are and i salute you. going to rewatch this for 5 hours
man i'm just watching this over and over it's utterly FASCINATING how you juxtaposed the cheery artstyle and upbeat-sounding song with the horror and mapleshade's unsettling sitcom life expectations... ouuugh i love it
tbh The Brady's is a pretty scary song already! There's even a lyric implying that the singer hurt one of her friends for being interested in Tim (Appledusk is Tim) and that she forced the marriage or had a fake one, seeing as she mentions flowers on a hearse at her wedding.
i really wish that i could watch this video for the first time again, the feeling was almost magical since i never heard the song prior to this video! i love appledusks design, and how the floating tuft resembles the stem of an apple! i also love the transition from mapleshade drowning in the river, to mapleshade in riverclan camp in a glass of water! this is definitely one of the most creative takes that i've seen on mapleshades story, and it's a massive breath of fresh air!
using the real pictures is so creative!! i especially love how appledusk is a literal apple that gets sliced and how mapleshade’s heart eyes are real hearts
I can only wish for a complete animated series of the Mapleshade novella in this beautiful, colorful style! It’s so much fun, I can’t stop watching. It’s like an actual intro to the book ❤ Even if you’re not a Mapleshade fan, this is just freaking admirable, genius work, seriously.
this is so AWESOME !! definitely one of the coolest PMVs I've ever seen. the visuals in this- from the symbolism to the 60s artstyle- are so unique. Seriously don't know how to describe this, stands out in the best way possible
Great song choice! It’s something the like which I’ve never heard before, loved every second and I just had to look up the lyrics: Met a funny boy By the name of Tim Took me to the road He always took me on a trip Got a deck in New Orleans Kissed him on the lip Lip, lip, lip Dip dip dip dip Brought me by the hand Gave me lots of flowers Parents give me lots of chocolates Gave me lots of flowers In my room on the right Writings in the hour (Writings in the hour? Writings in the hour) Our baby, o-o-o-our baby I will name her Lady Give her daisies She'll be crazy She'll be like me [Chorus] Maybe, we can live like Brady's Take me to a place where I can meet with all your family Promise that they'll love me I just dying to be Mrs. Brady! Looking for your heart Looking in the dark Trying to find your heart
It's no exaggeration to say I've had this on loop for hours and I somehow always find new things with every rewatch. There's not much praise I can give to this that hasn't already been given. Your style as always is amazing for Warrior Cats and it blends in so well with that old timey sitcom intro style. Your content is a gift to this fandom honestly. All of your stuff is so unique and creative.
WOOOAH!! as someone who has never read more than eight warrior cats books this is just fabulous! i think im learning about mapleshade purely through osmosis from the fandom now and this, with all the symbolism and beautiful animation, is really helping! i think this is one of the most creative and fun warrior cats things ive ever seen :)
I love how you designed them all! The way it is animated and coloured almost reminds me of some kind of animated kids show or sitcom, and then it gets darker. Some of this also reminds me of Weirdcore! 👍
i love this so much, its so memetic like it feels like a joke but at the same time its not and the desgisn are so good too, and the symbolism! its all amazing, i especially love how well its converts from lovey dovey to murder
oh my GGGGGGOD I cannot stop watching this!!! the style, the way everyone is looking towards Maple and Apple at the start, and hhhhh I can’t explain it well enough to not leave you confused I just LOVE IT!!!
THIS IS SOOO BOUNCY AND FUNNNN i love seeing more unique styles in warriors stuff and this is so cute yet creepy you struck that balance perfectly!!!!! this take on mapleshade's vengeance is also super good with the cartoony exaggeration of how mapleshade perceived the situation its so perfect!!!!!! ill never get over your talent my gosh

SHOOT, I WAS GONNA SAY THIS REMINDED ME OF THAT OLD WARRIOR CATS SERIES WHERE GRAYPAW HAD LEGS BEFORE REALIZING THIS IS THE SAME CHANNEL!! I LOVE THIS ❤️
LMAO 💀 I love the interpretation of how Mapleshade trapped him in a bird cage because it’s a literal reference to the novella about how she was possessive and controlling over him and didn’t wanna let him go,planning to trap him in a relationship hence the phrase “Appledusk is mine and these kits will make sure of that” implying she was trying to baby trap that poor man 😨 Edit: the amount of dramatic children in this thread is hilarious. She got what she deserved cry about it. She’s a self centered, selfish, arrogant, abuser who thought of her mate and children as nothing more than objects to own. She’s a terrible person and deserved what she got. And btw she groomed two children :) Crookedstar and tigerstar
That line isn't that bad tbh, if I saw someone cuddling up to my husband like that I'd feel jealous too. Also cats can't really... Baby trap..? Baby trap means when you fake pregnancy to keep someone with you, or you stop taking birth control on purpose to get pregnant without your partner knowing. If you look at earlier lines mapleshade was talking about how much she loved her kits and whatnot. And how she could find ways to get them accepted into the clan without them getting exiled etc etc. Mapleshade wasn't entirely possessive imo, she was just the jealous type, but I'd be too if I saw someone cuddlin up to my husband and actin all affectionate buddy buddy like gurl what?? 💀✋
@@HeavingSmiles baby trapping very much is a thing in the series. If gr//ming and p3d0ph1le exist then what makes you think that they wouldn’t try trapping each other in relationships. In the beginning of the book it literally outright implies that in the beginning she planned on using them as tools to keep Appledusk stuck in a relationship. She is entirely possessive,obsessive, and extremely reckless with secrets that need to be kept and the lives of their kits. Anyone who can’t or who doesn’t want to see that is blind. You saying that she loved them was just basic maternal instinct that anyone with a uterus that’s given birth can experience. Which would explain why multiple characters in the series for example rainflower started neglecting storm(crooked)kit when she thought he’d die thinking that it’s better not to waste resources on someone who’d die therefore she only focused on oakkit that’s a literal example of feelings out of instinct so you can’t deny it 💀
@@0.721x honestly? I still doubt it. Also, it’s kind of hard to baby trap if…you know..there isn’t a kitty cat version of protection in the books, I’m pretty sure. If anything, any male character would be the one baby-trapping, not the women, since there’s no kitty cat protection in the books and probably no birth control. MapleShade did very terrible things, but I still think her love for her children was more than just instinct in the books. If anything, with that, that could be applied to ANY mother in the book: I could say Bluestar only loved her children due to maternal instinct, or Dovewing only loved her kits due to maternal instinct, etc etc. We really can’t know for sure. Sorry if the language is a bit confusing, English ain’t my first language!
@@Ivemovedlmao The she-cats are the ones that make the choice to have and keep the kits. They don’t do it for "pleasure".(Anyone who says they do is a weirdo and should stop s3xual1z1ng cats.) If they choose to have one-night stands, get pregnant, and expect the father to be present, they are literally trapping themselves and a cat who was probably not ready to settle down. And especially putting themselves in danger of unnecessary punishment if they’re mating with a cat from another clan. And it’s outwardly shown in the series that every cat prefers and values their duties within the clans. An example of it would be why Hollyleaf didn’t want kits. They have the ability to just not have kits if they do please. All motherly characters in the series experience maternal instincts until the Erins decide to actually do something with their characters and develop their instincts into actual love and adoration rather than leaving them to be mindless queens. Mapleshade is manipulative and obsessive, and there is absolutely no doubt about that. She mates with Appledusk solely to stake a claim on him, and when Appledusk asked if Starclan approved, she manipulated him with the excuse that Starclan doesn't mind, brushed off his concerns about how their clan mates would feel, and told him her delusional plan of raising them to be loyal to both River and Thunderclan, which ultimately resulted in their deaths because she was so reckless with their secret.
@@0.721x the cats definitely don't have kits for pleasure. Male cats have sharp as fuck barbs on their dicks. Females can only ovulate when the males TEAR UP THE INSIDE OF HER.
ohhh i love the style of this, it's so unique and specific and gives me retro cartoon vibes! the lil bits of real hearts being spliced in adds a nice eerie touch
nobody's said it, but I want this confirmed. Patchkit is the blue kit, petalkit is the red kit and larchkit is the green one. am I wrong or am I right because until this is a yes or no I will worry about it forever... 💙
dude,, words cannot describe the aesthetic for this animation. its so fun but it still have a disturbing twist and i love it! the designs are really recognisable even though theyre very simple and the animation is so smooth! well done!
Coming back after rewatching like 5000 times.. Can we talk about the choice of making some parts lineless and how satisfying to look at it makes it. It also adds so so much to the character design!!
I love this with my whole soul! I love all the symbolism and the designs, wow the designs! Appledusk’s design makes me especially happy, apple boi. Such a fantastic video.
Aaah I'm so excited to see this! This carries the charm and style I admire about your work, with great humor too. I love when I can watch something about a popular character and feel like what I'm seeing is refreshing and new. A neat piece of Mapleshade!
This is AMAZING! The old retro style is something I’ve never see. Before in a wc map! I love the designs, they each have their own little personalities within their shapes!

i like how appledusk has such a soft shape.
which really helps to translate the soft spine he has

GOD I LOVE THIS!!! The way you actually showed how Mapleshade was possessive of Appledusk unlike 80% of other Mapleshade content made me happy

She is entirely possessive,obsessive, and extremely reckless with secrets that need to be kept and the lives of their kits. Anyone who can’t or who doesn’t want to see that is blind. You saying that she loved them was just basic maternal instinct that anyone with a uterus that’s given birth can experience. Which would explain why multiple characters in the series for example rainflower started neglecting storm(crooked)kit when she thought he’d die thinking that it’s better not to waste resources on someone who’d die therefore she only focused on oakkit that’s a literal example of feelings out of instinct so you can’t deny it 💀
@@0.721x honestly? I still doubt it. Also, it’s kind of hard to baby trap if…you know..there isn’t a kitty cat version of protection in the books, I’m pretty sure. If anything, any male character would be the one baby-trapping, not the women, since there’s no kitty cat protection in the books and probably no birth control. MapleShade did very terrible things, but I still think her love for her children was more than just instinct in the books. If anything, with that, that could be applied to ANY mother in the book: I could say Bluestar only loved her children due to maternal instinct, or Dovewing only loved her kits due to maternal instinct, etc etc. We really can’t know for sure. Sorry if the language is a bit confusing, English ain’t my first language!
@@Ivemovedlmao The she-cats are the ones that make the choice to have and keep the kits. They don’t do it for "pleasure".(Anyone who says they do is a weirdo and should stop s3xual1z1ng cats.) If they choose to have one-night stands, get pregnant, and expect the father to be present, they are literally trapping themselves and a cat who was probably not ready to settle down. And especially putting themselves in danger of unnecessary punishment if they’re mating with a cat from another clan.
And it’s outwardly shown in the series that every cat prefers and values their duties within the clans. An example of it would be why Hollyleaf didn’t want kits. They have the ability to just not have kits if they do please. All motherly characters in the series experience maternal instincts until the Erins decide to actually do something with their characters and develop their instincts into actual love and adoration rather than leaving them to be mindless queens.
Mapleshade is manipulative and obsessive, and there is absolutely no doubt about that. She mates with Appledusk solely to stake a claim on him, and when Appledusk asked if Starclan approved, she manipulated him with the excuse that Starclan doesn't mind, brushed off his concerns about how their clan mates would feel, and told him her delusional plan of raising them to be loyal to both River and Thunderclan, which ultimately resulted in their deaths because she was so reckless with their secret.
@@0.721x the cats definitely don't have kits for pleasure. Male cats have sharp as fuck barbs on their dicks. Females can only ovulate when the males TEAR UP THE INSIDE OF HER.
I absolutely live for this
Now THIS is top tier, I love the stylization in the designs 10/10 stunning
I love how appledusk is literally an apple-
i love the phenomenon of the art community reverting back 2 old art styles, like this pop art or scene art styles :D
This is INCREDIBLY cool I love the retro art style + the mixed media collage style with the photos!
this video is part of my daily routine i watch this video so much
I've actually watched this video like 50 times now
I want to watch this forever
ohhh i love the style of this, it's so unique and specific and gives me retro cartoon vibes! the lil bits of real hearts being spliced in adds a nice eerie touch
nobody's said it, but I want this confirmed. Patchkit is the blue kit, petalkit is the red kit and larchkit is the green one. am I wrong or am I right because until this is a yes or no I will worry about it forever... 💙
almost! patchkit red, petalkit blue and larchkit green lul
@@BoksieChoy this is going in my Cool Comments List!
@@BoksieChoy ahhh thank you for saving me from all the strife of worrying which kit was which!
@@BoksieChoy I think it would make more sense for petalkit to be green, since she's supposed to look exactly like appledusk
I genuinely can't stop watching this when it pops up in my RUclips feed, who knows how many times I've watched this masterpiece 💙
I loved the style and design, and the music matched a lot, my new favorite map

The absolutely most creative PMV I've ever seen for warrior cats - the experimentation with styles and image metaphors is SO good!!
Coming back after rewatching like 5000 times..
Can we talk about the choice of making some parts lineless and how satisfying to look at it makes it.
It also adds so so much to the character design!!
I love this with my whole soul! I love all the symbolism and the designs, wow the designs! Appledusk’s design makes me especially happy, apple boi. Such a fantastic video.
Aaah I'm so excited to see this! This carries the charm and style I admire about your work, with great humor too. I love when I can watch something about a popular character and feel like what I'm seeing is refreshing and new. A neat piece of Mapleshade!
The style completely matches the vibe of the song
I Love This Fucked Up And Evil Cat Sm.
Ive Unironically Watched This Like 20 Times In The Past 2-3 Days This Is Like My Baby Sensory Video
