Uram 7 dimstars past


Now before we start I just want to say that Uram7 is a great youtuber and has given us animation to love and she puts all her heart into it. That and she released twelve episodes plus extra animations in less then a year! With long episodes to. Now moving on I will be talking about Dimstars Pat for real lets go a little bit into the history of this feline. The story was based on the Warrior cat series of Erin hunter a successful and popular saga for children and young teens. Dimstars past takes place a few years after or before the firestar saga since each of the characters are made up and never mentioned in the book. Dimstar himself was not actually first seen in the show but in a page from an early comic Uram7 did, it gives us kind of a sneak peek into the up coming series.

The animation
The animation is great and for an episode to come out every few weeks I was surprised! The backgrounds were amazing and the movements of the cats looked nice in the early episodes Uram7 pointed out Chestnutfall gaining a few pounds in some animation frames but that was early on.

The characters
Dimstar: Was a very good character, one of the best I would say, sure he's based on warrior cats but he's not a perfect Hero. A normal Hero would give the guy a chance but no he actually takes revenge, it's an interesting point of view.

Scarletpelt: I felt as if this character was just there to be the female love-interest, but she also serves the only thing in the world that makes Dimstars life worth living and for that I kinda gave her a second chance.

Chestnutfall: Okay first thing that comes to mind when I saw him : Tigerstar but Uram7 has cleared up that he is not a tigerstar rip-off, event hough he looks like him and has the same motivations and...... enough said.


The story
The plot was very interesting as a coming of age story almost like Erin hunter had written it herself, Dimstar has had a troubling past and it has scared him but here are a few plot holes like the cat who gave him a life, who was that cat? Was he from starclan? The dark forest? A ghost? Who?! That aside the dialog was very well written and the cast who played the rolls were great!

OVERALL
Dimstars past is an enjoyable web-show that is a great watch. Sure the characters are just okay and there is a plot-hole int here but besides that Dimstars past made me realize the dark and horribal past Dimstar had and I hope you watch it and Uram7's coming short 2 part series 'LIGHT'. I give Dimstars Past a seven out of ten.
