You caught the feel of the transformation perfectly! Such a shame the tf was hidden mostly. Loved the movie and I love this piece, well done!

Thank you, glad you like it! That's part of the reason why I decided to draw this. I kinda expected them to not show the actual tf in the movie but of course that wouldn't stop me from doing it! That said... I think they did an amazing job in the post-tf department throughout the film.

Either way, you did us all a service by making such a cute rendition! Thank you and great job!

Same here^^

Hehe ^^ glad you liked it too!

yeah, it triggers me on a lot of aspects of what i like in the transformation theme^^
just give me the need to draw transformation pieces to complete a bit the movie like you did

We seem to have pretty similar triggers in that sense! hehe... I would absolutely love to see your take on something like this~

It sure did! That last part was very magical in a ghibli-esque way if that makes any sense. Although I found this one slightly more serious because of the way of tackling the background themes. For me it was best of both worlds!

Hated the movie and was extremely disappointed after having been super hyped about it because of its interesting premise, but the story was just yuck to me. :/
The only good thing that came out of it imo are all the nice TF-sequences popping up now, like yours. So thanks for that. ;)

I could see how the movie wouldn't be for everyone, it just happens to tackle themes that resonate quite well with me. I'm glad that even if you didn't like the movie, at least you liked this piece.

Everybody wants to be a cat.

Who wouldn't if you get to be that level of adorable... I mean, I maybe not doing her justice with this drawing, but come on, look at her~

The movie wasn't amazing, typical Netflix writing tbh. But the transformation themes and the themes of love and relationships were really what they were pushing and I think it was great in that sense as they knew what they wanted there and I feel deep down that the writer(s)/director(s) know about that "TF feeling" I feel we all here know and it came through in a lot of parts.

Yeah perhaps from a writing standpoint it wasn't all that original, but as you mentioned it tackled themes of escapism, shyness and internal conflict pretty well imo, or at least in a way that resonated with me in a deeper level than I expected... let's be honest I wasn't expecting the plot being about tf since that wouldn't be too popular. In that sense, and adding that "Tf feeling" you mentioned, which I completely agree with, made this an amazing film for me. That said, thanks for your comment and glad you liked it! ^^

So cute! And oh boy, I loved a lot of the things the movie did. The magic mask, the integration of themes with the transformation, the ex-human cats from the bar... there's so much to like, but I was kind of disappointed in the conclusion.

They didn't give Muge and Hinode enough time to think or talk about the mistakes they made (especially Muge) trying to communicate with each other before deciding on being in a relationship. When you consider how Hinode was originally annoyed with Muge, then started ignoring her, that really puts her actions in another light. I still relate to her, but I think she really has to own up for some stuff. Other little annoyances like the asshole balloon cat not getting much of a comeuppance (especially when you think about how he manipulated most of the barflies, possibly to the detriment of other people as well), and Hinode not completely transforming for the climax also added to my initial feelings.

After sitting with it for awhile, I think it balances out alright. It's not as consistent as The Cat Returns in tone, but it's a nice diversion with some really great ideas and superior emotional resonance (even if the execution isn't everything I'd like it to be). I'll probably watch the dub at some point after it comes out. Actually, the flaws kind of make me want to make my own wholesome transformation movie.

Thank you for your comment! Glad you like it!

SPOILERS AHEAD
Yeah the ending can feel a little rushed, but I find it heavily implied that they do realize those mistakes in the umbrella scene. Completely agree with the fat cat part, I'd have loved to see him get a proper punishment. As for Hinode not transforming... I didn't like he only got paws, but liked that he didn't change... It's a bit odd to explain, but if you'd like to discuss this more in-depth I'd gladly do so through notes or discord!

END OF SPOILERS

I'm always happy to see a new piece from you, and now I need to go watch this movie!

Thanks! Glad you like this little piece and hope you enjoy the movie!

Ah I see you watched the movie too

Im glad to see some fan art come from it

Thanks! Yeah I couldn't resist to draw some piece after watching... glad you like it!

I liked the movie for its transformation aspects, of course, and the animation was cute. But I found Muge's manner towards Hinode to be creepy and unhealthy to a degree that rivals Bella from Twilight.

Thanks for your comment! Yeah, she was definitely acting a bit overboard in the beginning. She learned from her mistakes in the end though, so there's that!

cat mask nya :3
